All of the following are considered to determine whether or not the impairment of these securities is other-than-temporary. Eighty two percent of the securities are backed by the U.S. Government, government agencies, government sponsored agencies or are A rated or better, except for certain non-local municipal securities. Mortgage-backed securities which are not issued by the U.S. Government or government sponsored agencies (private label(non-agency mortgage-backed securities) met specific criteria set by the Asset Liability Management Committee at their time of purchase, including having the highest rating available by either Moody’s or S&P. None of the securities have call provisions (with the exception of the municipal securities) and payments as originally agreed have been received. For the government, government-sponsored agency and muni cipalmun icipal securities, management had no concerns of credit losses and there was nothing to indicate that full principal will not be received. Management considered the unrealized losses on these securities to be primarily interest rate driven and did not expect material losses given current market conditions unless the securities are sold, which at this time management does not have the intent to sell nor will it more likely than not be required to sell these securities before the recovery of their amortized cost basis.

As of March 31,June 30, 2010, the Company had $70.0$68.9 million of collateralized mortgage obligations which were not issued by the federal government or government sponsored agencies, but were rated AAA by S&P and/or Aaa by Moody’s at the time of purchase. At December 31, 2009, the Company had $72.5 million of these collateralized mortgage obligations.  Five of the 24 private labelnon-agency mortgage backed securities were still rated AAA/Aaa as of March 31,June 30, 2010, but nineteen19 were downgraded by S&P, Fitch and/or Moody’s, including sixteen16 which were ranked below investment grade by one or more rating agencies.  Since December 31, 2009, there have not been any downgrades on the five securities still rated AAA/Aaa and of the 19 that were below AAA/Aaa, four incurred further downgrades.

For these private labelnon-agency mortgage-backed securities, additional analysis is performed to determine if the impairment is temporary or other-than-temporary in which case impairment would need to be recorded for th esethese securities. The Company performs an independent analysis of the cash flows of the individual securities based upon assumptions as to collateral defaults, prepayment speeds, expected losses and the severity of potential losses.  Based upon the initial review, securities may be identified for further analysis computing the net present value using an appropriate discount rate (the current accounting yield) and comparing it to the book value of the security to determine if there is any other-than-temporary impairment that must be recorded. Based on this analysis of the private labelnon-agency mortgage-backed securities, the Company recordedrecor ded an other-than-temporary impairment of $171,000$252,000 and $81,000, respectively, relating to twofour separate securities in the first quarter ofsix-months and three-months ended June 30, 2010, which is equal to the credit loss, establishing a new, lower amortized cost basis.  Because management did not have the intent to sell nor did management believe that it was more likely than not they would be required to sell these securities before t hethe recovery of their new, lower amortized cost basis, management did not consider the remaining balancesunrealized losses of the investment securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31,June 30, 2010.

The following table provides information about debt securities for which only a credit loss was recognized in income and other losses are recorded in other comprehensive income.  The table represents the three months and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2010.

NOTE 6.  NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2009,April 2010, the FASB amended previous guidance relating to transfersacquired loans that have evidence of financialcredit deterioration upon acquisition accounted for within a pool, not resulting in the removal of those loans from the pool even if modifications of those loans would otherwise be considered a troubled debt restructuring.  Under the amendments, modifications of loans that are accounted for within a pool do not result in the removal of those loans from the pool even if the modification of those loans would otherwise be considered a troubled debt restructuring. An entity will continue to be required to consider whether the pool of assets and eliminatesin which the concept of a qualifying special purpose entity.loan is included is impaired if expected cash flows for the pool change.  This guidance must be applied asis effective for modifications of acqu ired loans that have evidence of credit deterioration upon acquisition accounted for within a pool occurring in the beginning of each reporting entity’s first interim or annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. This guidance must be applied to transfers occurringending on or after the effective date. Additionally, on and after the effective date, the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity is no longer relevant for accounting purposes. Therefore, formerly qualifying special-purpose entities should be evaluated for consolidation by reporting entities on and after the effective d ate in accordance with the applicable consolidation guidance. The disclosure provisions were also amended and apply to transfers that occurred both before and after the effective date of this guidance.July 15, 2010.  The effect of adopting this new guidance didis not expected to have any material effect on the Company’s operating results or financial condition.

In June 2009, the FASB amended guidance for consolidation of  variable interest entity guidance by  replacing the quantitative-based risks and rewards calculation for determining which enterprise, if any, has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity with an approach focused on identifying which enterprise has the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (1) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or (2) the right to receive benefits from the entity. Additional disclosures about an enterprise’s involvement in variable interest entities are also required. This guidance is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s fi rst annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Early adoption is prohibited. The effect of adopting this new guidance did not have any material effect on the Company’s operating results or financial condition.

In September 2009, the FASB issued guidance with respect to how entities calculate net asset value per share or “NAV” of investments considered “alternative investments”, such as hedge funds, private equity funds, or funds of funds. This guidance provides a practical expedient for measuring the fair value of investments in a limited number of entities that calculate NAV. This guidance provides enhanced disclosure requirements and is effective for a reporting entity’s first annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2009. Early application is permitted in financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company did not early adopt this guidance. The effect of adopting this new guidance did not have any material effect on the Company’s operating results or financial condition.

In January 2010, the FASB amended existing guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures which requires disclosures for transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 fair value measurements and activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in the guidance also clarify existing disclosures for level of disaggregation and disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques. The amendments in the guidance also include conforming amendments to the guidance on employers’ disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets. The guidance was effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The effect of adopting this new guidance did not have any material effect on the Company’s operating results or financial condition.

NOTE 7.  FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principleprincipal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:
   
Level 1  Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
  
Level 2  Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
  
Level 3 Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate the fair value of each type of financial instrument:

Securities:  Securities available for sale are valued primarily by a third party pricing service. The fair values of securities available for sale are determined on a recurring basis by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs) or pricing models utilizing significant observable inputs such as matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs). These models utilize the market approach with standard inputs that include, but are not limited to benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securitie s, bids, offers and reference data. There were no transfers from or into Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the first six months of 2010.

16

Impaired loans:  Impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses are generally assessed against higher than normal discounted advance ratios of collateral as approved at the time of funding, with consideration given for any supplemental credit support from guarantors. Consideration is given for the type and nature of collateral, as well as the anticipated liquidation value to develop a discount for the advance ratios on each credit.  Commercial real estate is generally discounted from its appraised value by 20-50% after various considerations including age of the appraisal, current net operating income realized, general market conditions where the property is located, type of property and potential buyer base.  The appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of ap proacheso f approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant. Raw and finished inventory is discounted from its cost or book value by 35 to 65%35-65%, depending on the marketability of the goods.  Finished goods are generally discounted by 30-60%, depending on the ease of marketability, cost of transportation or scope of use of the finished good.  Work in process inventory is typically discounted by 50-100%, depending on the length of manufacturing time, types of components used in the completion process, and the breadth of the user base.  Equipment is valued at a percentage of depreciated book value or recent appraised value, if available, and is typically discounted at 30-70% after various considerations including age and condition of the equipment, marketability, breadth of use, and wheth erwhet her the equipment includes unique components or add-ons.  Marketable securities are discounted by 10-30%, depending on the type of investment, age of valuation report and general market conditions.  This methodology is based on a market approach and typically results in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

16

Mortgage servicing rights:  As of March 31,June 30, 2010 the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 servicing assets for residential mortgage loans was $2.0 million.$1.8 million, some of which are not currently impaired and therefore carried at amortized cost.  These residential mortgage loans have a weighted average interest rate of 5.55%5.51%, a weighted average maturity of 20 years and are secured by homes generally within the Company’s market area of Northern Indiana.  A valuation model is used to estimate fair value, which is based on an income approach.  The inputs used include estimates of prepayment speeds, discount rate, cost to service, escrow account earnings, contractual servicing fee income, ancillary income, late fees, and float income.  The most significant assumption used to value MSRs is prepaymentpr epayment rate.  Prepayment rates are estimated based on published indus tryindustry consensus prepayment rates.  At March 31,June 30, 2010 the constant prepayment speed (PSA) used was 335386 and the discount rate used was 9.5%.

Other real estate owned:  Nonrecurring adjustments to certain commercial and residential real estate properties classified as other real estate owned are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell. Fair values are generally based on third party appraisals of the property, resulting in a Level 3 classification. In cases where the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, less costs to sell, an impairment loss is recognized.

17

Real estate mortgage loans held for sale:  Real estate mortgage loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, as determined by outstanding commitments, from third party investors.

For purposes of the above disclosures of estimated fair value, the following assumptions were used as of March 31,June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. The estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents, demand and savings deposits, variable rate loans, variable rate short term borrowings and accrued interest is considered to approximate cost. The fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal Reserve Bank stock is not determinable as there are restrictions on its transferability. The estimated fair value for fixed rate loans, certificates of deposit and fixed rate borrowings is based on discounted cash flows using current market rates applied to the estimated life. Real estate mortgages held for sale are based upon the actual contracted price for those loans sold but not yet delivered, or the current Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation price for normal delivery of mortgages with similar coupons and maturities at year-end. The fair value of subordinated debentures is based on the rates currently available to the Company with similar term and remaining maturity and credit spread. The fair value of off-balance sheet items is based on the current fees or cost that would be charged to enter into or terminate such arrangements. The estimated fair value of other financial instruments approximate cost and are not considered significant to this presentation.

NOTE 8. PREFERRED STOCK

On February 27, 2009, the Company entered into a Letter Agreement with the United States Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”), pursuant to which the Company issued (i) 56,044 shares of the Company’s Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) and (ii) a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 396,538 shares of the Company’s common stock, no par value (the “Common Stock”), for an aggregate purchase price of $56,044,000 in cash. This transaction was conducted in accordance with Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program implemented under the Troubled Assets Relief Program (“TARP”).

19

The Series A Preferred Stock qualifiesqualified as Tier 1 capital and payspaid cumulative dividends at a rate of 5% per annum for the first five years, and will pay 9% per annum thereafter.annum.  The Series A Preferred Stock iswas non-voting except with respect to certain matters affecting the rights of the holders thereof. The Series A Preferred Stock was valued using a discounting of cash flows at a 12% discount rate based on an average implied cost of equity over 5 years.

The Warrant has a 10-year term and is immediately exercisable upon its issuance, with an exercise price, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, equal to $21.20 per share of the Common Stock (trailing 20-day Lakeland average closing price as of December 17, 2008, which was the last trading day prior to date of receipt of Treasury’s preliminary approval for our participation in the Capital Purchase Program). The Warrant was valued using the Black Scholes model with the following assumptions:  Market Price of $17.45; Exercise Price of $21.20; Risk-free interest rate of 3.02%; Expected Life of 10 years; Expected Dividend rate on common stock of 4.5759% and volatility of common stock price of 41.8046%. This resulted in a value of $4.4433 per share.

The total amount of funds received were allocated to the Series A Preferred Stock and Warrant based on their respective fair values to determine the amounts recorded for each component. The method used to amortize the resulting discount on the Series A Preferred Stock is accretion over the assumed life of five years using the effective yield.

During the first quarter of 2009, the Company invested $56.0 million of the Capital Purchase Program funds received in the Bank. This additional capital positively impacted the Bank’s capital ratios and liquidity.

Subsequent to issue, the share count of the Warrant was adjusted to 198,269 due to a Qualified Equity Offering as more fully described in Note 9.

20

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the ability ofOn June 9, 2010 the Company paid $56.0 million to declare or pay dividends or distributions on, or purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire for consideration,the 56,044 shares of its Common Stock will be subject to restrictions, including a restriction against increasing dividends from the last quarterly cash dividend per share ($0.155) declared on the Common Stock prior to February 27, 2012. The redemption, purchase or other acquisition of trust preferred securities of the Company or its affiliates also will be restricted. These restrictions will terminate on the earlier of (a) the third anniversary of the date of issuance of the Preferred Stock and (b) the date on which the Series A Preferred Stock hasissued and accreted the remaining unamortized discount on these shares.  The Company did not repurchase the Warrant.  Due to the redemption, all restrictions which had been redeemed in whole or the U.S. Treasury has transferred all of the Series A Preferred Stock to third parties, except that, after the third anniversary of the date of issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock, if the Series A Preferred Stock remains outstanding at such time,imposed on the Company may not increase its common dividends per share without obtaining consent of the U.S. Treasury.

The Purchase Agreement also subjects the Company to certain of the executive compensation limitations included in the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (the “EESA”). In this connection, as a condition to the closingresult of the transaction, the Company’s Senior Executive Officers (as definedparticipating in the Purchase Agreement) (the “Senior Executive Officers”), (i) voluntarily waived any claim against the U.S. Treasury or the Company for any changes to such officer’s compensation or benefits that are required to comply with the regulation issued by the U.S. Treasury under the TARP Capital Purchase Program, including restrictions on raising dividends and acknowledged that the regulation may require modification of theexecutive compensation, bonus, incentive and other benefit plans, arrangements and policies and agreements as they relate to the period the U.S. Treasury owns the Preferred Stock of the Company; and (ii) entered into a letter with the Company amending the Benefit Plans with respect to such Senior Executive Officers as may be necessary, during the period that the Treasury owns the Preferred Stock of the Company, as necessary to comply with Section 111(b) of the EESA.were terminated.

NOTE 9. COMMON STOCK

On November 18, 2009, the Company completed an underwritten public stock offering by issuing 3,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a public offering price of $17.00 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $59.5 million. The net proceeds to the Company after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses were approximately $55.9 million.

On December 3, 2009, the Company was notified by the Treasury that, as a result of the Company's completion of our November 18, 2009 Qualified Equity Offering, the amount of the warrantWarrant was reduced by 50% to 198,269 shares.

20

On December 15, 2009, the Company sold 125,431 shares of common stock pursuant to the underwriters’ exercise of the over-allotment option, which the Company granted in connection with underwritten public stock offering. The Company sold the additional shares to the underwriters at the same public offering price of $17.00 per share agreed to for the initial closing on November 18, 2009.

Part 1
LAKELAND FINANCIAL CORPORATION
ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
and
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

March 31,June 30, 2010

OVERVIEW

Lakeland Financial Corporation is the holding company for Lake City Bank. The Company is headquartered in Warsaw, Indiana and operates 43 offices in 12 counties in northernNorthern Indiana and a loan production office in Indianapolis, Indiana. The Company earned $6.0$12.2 million for the first threesix months of 2010, versus $3.9$8.3 million in the same period of 2009, an increase of 55.6%46.9%.  Net income was positively impacted by a $5.9$9.6 million increase in net interest income.income and a $367,000 decrease in noninterest expense.  Offsetting thisthese positive impactimpacts was an increase of $1.0$1.8 million in the provision for loan losses and a decrease of $723,000$1.4 million in noninterest income and an increase of $361,000 in noninterest expense.income.  Basic earnings per common share for the first threesix months of 2010 were $0.32$0.56 per share, versus $0.29$0.58 per share for the first threesix months of 2009.  Di luted earnings per common share reflect the potential dilutive impact of stock options, stock awards and warrants.  Diluted earnings per common share for the first threesix months of 2010 were $0.32$0.56 per share, versus $0.29$0.58 for the first threesix months of 2009.  Basic and diluted earnings per share for the first threesix months of 2010 and 2009 were impacted by $805,000$3.2 million and $290,000,$1.1 million, respectively, in dividends and accretion of discount on preferred stock.  Earnings per share for the first threesix months of 2010 were also impacted by the Company’s issuance of 3.6 million common shares during the fourth quarter of 2009.

Net income for the second quarter of 2010 was $6.2 million, an increase of 39.4% versus $4.5 million for the comparable period of 2009.  The increase was driven by a $3.6 million increase in net interest income as well as a $728,000 decrease in noninterest expense.  Offsetting these positive impacts was an increase of $814,000 in the provision for loan losses, as well as a decrease of $663,000 in noninterest income.  Basic earnings per share for the second quarter of 2010 were $0.24 per share, versus $0.29 per share for the second quarter of 2009.  Diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2010 were $0.24 per share, versus $0.29 per share for the second quarter of 2009.  Basic and diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2010 and 2009 were impacted by $2.4 million a nd $800,000, respectively, in dividends and accretion of discount on preferred stock.  Earnings per share for the second quarter of 2010 were also impacted by the Company’s issuance of 3.6 million common shares during the fourth quarter of 2009.

Dividends and accretion of discount on preferred stock were higher during 2010 versus 2009 due largely to the Company’s June 9, 2010 redemption of the 56,044 shares of preferred stock issued to the U.S. Treasury Department in February 2009 under the Capital Purchase Program.  As a result of the redemption, the Company recognized a non-cash reduction in net income available to common shareholders of $1.8 million, which represents the remaining unamortized accretion of the discount on the preferred shares.  This non-cash item impacted net income available to common shareholders and earnings per share.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income

For the three-monthsix-month period ended March 31,June 30, 2010, net interest income totaled $23.0$46.1 million, an increase of 35.0%26.2%, or $5.9$9.6 million, versus the first threesix months of 2009.  This increase was primarily due to a 7451 basis point increase in the Company’s net interest margin to 3.86%3.80%, versus 3.12%3.29% for the first six months of 2009.  In addition, average earning assets increased by $199.8 million, or 8.8%, to $2.480 billion in the first six months of 2010, versus the first six months of 2009.  For the three-month period ended June 30, 2010, net interest income totaled $23.2 million, an increase of 18.5%, or $3.6 million, versus the second quarter of 2009.  This increase was primarily due to a 30 basis point increase in the Company’s net interest margin to 3.75%, versus 3.45% for the second quarter of 2009.  In addition, average earning assets increased by $189.5$210.0 million, or 8.4%9.1%, to $2.445$2.515 billion in the firstsecond quarter of 2010, versus the firstsecond quarter of 2009.

Given the Company’s mix of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities at March 31,June 30, 2010, the Company would generally be considered to have a relatively neutral balance sheet structure.  The Company’s balance sheet structure would normally be expected to produce a stable or declining net interest margin in a declining rate environment.  As the Company’s balance sheet has become more neutral in structure, management believes rate movements and other factors such as deposit mix, market deposit rate pricing and non-bank deposit products could have an impact on net interest margin.  Over time, the Company’s mix of deposits has shifted to more reliance on certificates of deposits, specifically public fund deposits and brokered deposits, and corporate and public fund money mark etmarke t and repurchase agreements, which generally carry a higher interest rate cost than other types of interest bearing deposits.  In addition, during the first quarter of 2009, the Company began using the Federal Reserve Bank’s Term Auction Facility.

24

During the first threesix months of 2010, total interest and dividend income increased by $2.3$4.3 million, or 8.3%7.6%, to $30.3$61.1 million, versus $27.9$56.8 million during the first threesix months of 2009.  This increase was primarily the result of an increase in average earning assets of $189.5$199.8 million, or 8.4%8.8%.  The tax equivalent yield on average earning assets was unchanged at 5.1%decreased six basis points to 5.0% for the three-month periodssix-month period ended March 31,June 30, 2010 versus the same period of 2009.  During the second quarter of 2010, total interest and dividend income increased by $2.0 million, or 6.9%, to $30.8 million, versus $28.8 million during the second quarter of 2009.  This increase was primarily the result of an increase in average earning assets of $210.0 million, or 9.1%.  The tax equivalent yield on average earning assets decreased by 10 basis points to 5.0% for the second quarter of 2010 versus the same period of 2009.

During the first threesix months of 2010, loan interest income increased by $2.5$4.7 million, or 11.0%10.1%, to $25.4$51.3 million, versus $22.9$46.6 million during the first threesix months of 2009. The increase was driven by a $165.2$158.9 million, or 9.0%8.5%, increase in average daily loan balances.  In addition the tax equivalent yield on loans increased to 5.1%, versus 5.0% in the first threesix months of 2009.  During the second quarter of 2010, loan interest income increased by $2.2 million, or 9.2%, to $26.0 million, versus $23.8 million during the second quarter of 2009. The increase was driven by a $152.6 million, or 8.1%, increase in average daily loan balances.  In addition the tax equivalent yield on loans increased to 5.1%, versus 5.0% in the second quarter of 2009.

24

The average daily securities balances for the first threesix months of 2010 increased $24.8$28.3 million, or 6.4%7.2%, to $414.0$420.8 million, versus $389.2$392.5 million for the same period of 2009.

The average daily securities balances for the second quarter of 2010 increased $31.9 million, or 8.1%, to $427.6 million, versus $395.7 million for the same period of 2009.  During the second quarter of 2010, income from securities was $4.8 million, a decrease of $216,000, or 4.3%, versus the second quarter of 2009.  The de crease was primarily the result of a 55 basis point decrease in the tax equivalent yield on securities.

The decrease was primarily the result of a 7256 basis point decrease in the Company’s daily cost of funds to 1.3%, versus 2.0%1.9% for the same period of 2009.  This decrease was generally caused by lower interest rates in the Company’s market areas.  Total interest expense decreased $1.6 million, or 17.6%, to $7.7 million for the second quarter of 2010, versus $9.3 million for the second quarter of 2009.  The decrease was primarily the result of a 40 basis point decrease in the Company’s daily cost of funds to 1.3%, from 1.7% for the sa me period of 2009.

On an average daily basis, total deposits (including demand deposits) increased $19.2$147.5 million, or 1.0%7.9%, to $1.928$2.028 billion for the three-monthsix-month period ended March 31,June 30, 2010, versus $1.909$1.881 billion during the same period in 2009.  The average daily balances for the second quarter of 2010 increased $274.5 million, or 14.8%, to $2.127 billion from $1.853 billion during the second quarter of 2009.  On an average daily basis, noninterest bearing demand deposits were $240.7$246.9 million for the three-monthsix-month period ended March 31,June 30, 2010, versus $217.7$220.0 million for the same period in 2009.  The average daily noninterest bearing demand deposit balances for the second quarter of 2010 were $253.0 million, versus $222.2 million for the second quarter of 2009.  On an average daily basis, interest bearing transaction accounts increased $65.9in creased $124.6 million, or 12.1%23.2%, to $611.9$661.6 million for the three-monthsix-month period ended March 31,June 30, 2010, versus the same period in 2009.  Average daily interest bearing transaction accounts increased $182.5 million, or 34.6%, to $710.7 million for the second quarter of 2010, versus $528.1 million for the second quarter of 2009.  When comparing the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2010 with the same period of 2009, the average daily balance of time deposits, which pay a higher rate of interest compared to demand deposit and transaction acc ounts,accounts, decreased $104.1$42.7 million, primarily as a result of decreases in brokered time deposits and public fund certificates of deposit.  The rate paid on time deposit accounts decreased 117104 basis points to 2.0%1.9% for the three-monthsix-month period ended March 31,June 30, 2010, versus the same period in 2009.  During the second quarter of 2010, the average daily balance of time deposits increased $18.0 million, and the rate paid decreased 89 basis points to 1.8%, versus th e second quarter of 2009.  Despite the low interest rate environment, the Company has been able to attract and retain retail deposit customers through offering innovative deposit products such as Rewards Checking and Savings.  These products pay somewhat higher interest rates, but also encourage certain customer behaviors such as using debit cards and electronic statements, which have the effect of generating additional third-party fee income and reducing the Company’s processing costs.

The Company’s funding strategy is focused on leveraging its retail branch network to grow traditional retail deposits and on its presence with commercial customers and public fund entities in its Indiana markets.  In addition, the Company has utilized out of market deposit programs such as brokered certificates of deposit and the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (CDARS) program.  Due to ongoing loan growth, the Company has expanded its funding strategy over time to include these out of market deposit programs.  The Company believes that these deposit programs represent an appropriate tool in the overall liquidity and funding strategy.  On an average daily basis, total brokered certificates of deposit decreased $121.1$49.4 million to $108.1$138.4 million for the three-monthsix-month period ended Ma rch 31,June 30, 2010, versus $229.2$187.8 million for the same period in 2009.  During the second quarter of 2010, average daily brokered certificates of deposit were $168.4 million, versus $146.9 million during the second quarter of 2009.  On an average daily basis, total public fund certificates of deposit decreased $63.6$35.0 million to $155.7$176.8 million for the three-monthsix-month period ended March 31,June 30, 2010, versus $219.3$211.9 million for the same period in 2009.  As noted above,During the Company is also a membersecond quarter of the CDARS deposit program.  The program is a convenient way for participating customers to enjoy full FDIC insurance coverage on large certificates of deposit, and consists of a network of financial institutions which exchange funds.  The2010, average daily balances of CDARSpublic fund certificates of deposit were $101.4$197.7 million, versus $204.5 million during the second quarter of 2009.  In addition, the Company had average public fund interest bearing transaction accounts of $78.6 million and $70.9$81.6 million, respectively, in the six months and three months ended March 31,June 30, 2010, versus $12.9 million and $12.6 million for the comparable periods of 2009.  Availability of public fund deposits can be cyclical, primarily due to the timing differences between when realr eal estate property taxes are collected versus when those tax revenues are spent, as well as the intense competition for these funds.

Average daily balances of borrowings were $343.8$285.6 million during the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2010, versus $284.1$313.4 million during the same period of 2009, and the rate paid on borrowings decreased 7535 basis points to 0.9%1.1%.  During the second quarter of 2010 the average daily balances of borrowings decreased $114.4 million to $228.0 million, versus $342.4 million for the same period of 2009, and the rate paid on borrowings increased nine basis points to 1.3%.  The increasedecrease in average borrowings during the second quarter of 2010 was driven by increasesdecreases of $114.8$94.9 million in borrowings under the Federal Reserve Bank’s Term Auction Facility (TAF).  The Company began utilizing TAF borrowings during the first quarter of 2009.  Average daily borrowings under the facility were $118.8$6.9 million and $4.0 million,$101.9 mil lion, respectively, during the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2010 and 2009.  The average rate paid was 0.3% during both periods.  During the first quarter of 2010, the Federal Reserve discontinued the TAF program and the Company’s last borrowing matured o non April 8, 2010.  On an average daily basis, total deposits (including demand deposits) and purchased funds increased 3.6%5.5% and 7.3%, respectively, when comparing the six-month and three-month periodperiods ended March 31,June 30, 2010 versus the same period in 2009.

As a result of the unprecedented instability in the financial markets during late 2008 and into 2009, the Company reviewed its liquidity plan and took several actions designed to provide for an appropriate funding strategy.  These actions included: actively communicating with correspondent banks who provide federal fund lines to ensure availability of these funds; use of brokered certificate of deposits, which have been readily available to the Company at competitive rates; increased allocation of collateral at the Federal Reserve Bank for borrowings under their programs; maintenance of collateral levels at the FHLB for borrowings under their programs at advantageous rates; participation in the CDARS deposit program and an increased focus on aggressively priced and structured core deposit programs offered by the Company, such a s Rewards Checking and Savings.  The Company will continue to carefully monitor its liquidity planning and will make any necessary adjustments during this environment.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Certain of the Company’s accounting policies are important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates associated with these policies are susceptible to material changes as a result of changes in facts and circumstances. Some of the facts and circumstances which could affect these judgments include changes in interest rates, in the performance of the economy or in the financial condition of borrowers. Management believes that its critical accounting policies include determining the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of mortgage servicing rights and the valuation and other than temporary impairment of investment securities. The Company’s critical a ccounting policies are discussed in detail in the Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2009 (incorporated by reference as part of the Company’s 10-K filing).

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total assets of the Company were $2.619$2.634 billion as of March 31,June 30, 2010, an increase of $47.1$62.0 million, or 1.8%2.4%, when compared to $2.572 billion as of December 31, 2009.

Total cash and cash equivalents increased by $41.2 million,$886,000, or 73.6%1.6%, to $97.2$56.9 million at March 31,June 30, 2010 from $56.0 million at December 31, 2009.

Total securities available-for-sale increased by $12.7$22.0 million, or 3.1%5.4%, to $422.7$432.0 million at March 31,June 30, 2010 from $410.0 million at December 31, 2009. The increase was a result of a number of transactions in the securities portfolio.  Securities purchases totaled $35.1$60.4 million.  Offsetting this increase were securities paydowns totaling $21.3$42.6 million and maturities and calls of securities totaling $5.2 million and$5.7 million.  In addition, the fair market value of the securities portfolio increased by $4.5$10.9 million.  The increase in fair market value was due to higher market values for securities which are backed directly or indirectly by the federal government.  The investment portfolio is managed to limit the Company’s exposure to risk by containing mostly mortgage-backed securities, other securitiessecuri ties which are either directly or i ndirectlyindirectly backed by the federal government or a local municipal government and collateralized mortgage obligations rated AAA by S&P and/or Aaa by Moody’s at the time of purchase.  As of March 31,June 30, 2010, the Company had $70.0$68.9 million of collateralized mortgage obligations which were not backed by the federal government, but were rated AAA by S&P and/or Aaa by Moody’s at the time of purchase.

34

Five of the 24 private labelnon-agency collateralized mortgage obligations are still rated AAA/Aaa as of March 31,June 30, 2010, but nineteen19 had been downgraded since the time of purchase by S&P, Fitch and/or Moody’s, including sixteen16 which were ranked below investment grade by one or more rating agencies.  The Company performs an independent analysis of the cash flows of these securities based on assumptions as to collateral defaults, prepayment speeds, expected losses and the severity of potential losses.  Based upon the initial analysis, securities may be identified for further analysis computing the net present value and comparing it to the book value to determine if there is any other-than-temporary impairment to be recorded.  Based on the analyses as of March 31,June 30, 2010, the Company realized an additional $171 ,000$81,000 in the secon d quarter in other-than-temporary impairment, equal to projected credit losses, based on current cash flow analysis, on twofour of the 24 private labelnon-agency collateralized mortgage obligations.

Real estate mortgage loans held-for-sale decreased by $368,000, to $1.2were $1.5 million at March 31,June 30, 2010 from $1.5 million atand December 31, 2009. The balance of this asset category is subject to a high degree of variability depending on, among other things, recent mortgage loan rates and the timing of loan sales into the secondary market. During the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2010, $13.3$25.7 million in real estate mortgages were originated for sale and $13.6$25.6 million in mortgages were sold.

Total loans, excluding real estate mortgage loans held-for-sale, decreasedincreased by $567,000$45.7 million to $2.011$2.058 billion at March 31,June 30, 2010 from $2.012 billion at December 31, 2009. The portfolio breakdown at March 31,June 30, 2010 reflected 85% commercial and December 31, 2009 reflectedindustrial, including commercial real estate and agri-business, 12% residential real estate and home equity and 3% consumer loans compared to 84% commercial and industrial, including commercial real estate and agri-business, 13% residential real estate and home equity and 3% consumer loans.loans as of December 31, 2009.  The Company did not participate in the subprime mortgage lending markets and therefore did not have direct exposure to this sector as a lender.

The Company has a high percentage of commercial and commercial real estate loans, most of which are extended to small or medium-sized businesses. Commercial loans represent higher dollar loans to fewer customers and therefore higher credit risk than other types of loans. Pricing is adjusted to manage the higher credit risk associated with these types of loans. The Company also generally requires new and renewed variable rate commercial loans to have floor rates.  The majority of fixed rate residential mortgage loans, which represent increased interest rate risk, are sold in the secondary market, as well as some variable rate mortgage loans. The remainder of the variable rate mortgage loans and a small number of fixed rate mortgage loans are retained.

Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the principal is uncollectible. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. The allowance is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb probable incurred credit losses relating to specifically identified loans based on an evaluation, as well as other probable incurred losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The evaluations take into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans and current economic conditions that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay. Management also considers trends in adversely classified loans based upon a monthly review of those credits. An appropriate level of general allowance is deter mined after considering the following factors:  application of historical loss percentages, emerging market risk, commercial loan focus and large credit concentrations, new industry lending activity and current economic conditions. Federal regulations require insured institutions to classify their own assets on a regular basis. The regulations provide for three categories of classified loans – substandard, doubtful and loss. The regulations also contain a special mention category. Special mention is defined as loans that do not currently expose an insured institution to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant classification, but do possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving management’s close attention.  The Company’s policy is to establish a specific allowance for loan losses for any assets classified as substandard or doubtful.  If an asset or portion thereof is classified as loss, the Company’s policy is to either establish specified allowances for loan losses in the amount of 100% of the portion of the asset classified loss, or charge off such amount. At March 31,June 30, 2010, on the basis of management’s review of the loan portfolio, the Company had loans totaling $180.6$172.6 million on the classified loan list versus $178.0 million on December 31, 2009. As of March 31,June 30, 2010, the Company had $64.8$66.8 million of assets classified special mention, $113.7$104.0 million classified as substandard, $369,000$0 classified as doubtful and $0 classified as loss as compared to $75.0 million, $100.6 million, $369,000 and $0 at December 31, 2009.  In addition, at March 31,June 30, 2010 the Company had seveneight loans totaling $14.6 million accounted for as troubled debt restructurings – fivesix mortgage loans totaling $800,000$1.1 million with total allocations of $59,000,$71,000, a $6.3$6.2 million commercial credit with an allocation of $2.9$3.0 million and a $7.3 million commercial credit with an allocation of $1.3 million.$814,000.  The Company has no commitments to lend additional funds to any ofo f the borrowe rs.borrowers.  At December 31, 2009, the Company had two relationships totaling $6.5 million accounted for as troubled debt restructurings – a $176,000 mortgage loan with an allocation of $35,000 and a $6.3 million commercial credit with an allocation of $2.5 million.

Allowance estimates are developed by management taking into account actual loss experience, adjusted for current economic conditions. The Company discusses this methodology with regulatory authorities to ensure compliance.authorities.  Allowance estimates are considered a prudent measurement of the risk in the Company’s loan portfolio and are applied to individual loans based on loan type. In accordance with current accounting guidance, the allowance is provided for losses that have been incurred as of the balance sheet date and is based on past events and current economic conditions, and does not include the effects of expected losses on specific loans or groups of loans that are related to future events or expected changes in economic conditions.

Net charge-offs totaled $4.7 million in the second quarter of 2010, versus $1.3 million during both the second quarter of 2009 and the first quarter of 2010.  Loan exposure to three borrowers represented $4.2 million, or 90%, of these charge offs.  $2.2 million of the charge offs were related to an operating line of credit and term loan extended to a manufacturing company which terminated operations during the quarter.  The Company has no additional exposure to this borrower.  The second loss of $1.1 million was a real estate loan connected to a manufacturing business that terminated operations.  The Company has remaining nonaccrual real estate loan exposure of $1.7 million to this borrower and expects that it will be transferred to other real estate in the third quarter of 2010 at the cu rrent carrying value.  The third loss of $0.9 million was an operating line of credit related to a manufacturer that terminated operations. The Company has no additional exposure to this borrower.  Loan exposure to the first borrower was current as of March 31, 2010 and the second and third loans were on nonaccrual as of that date.

36

The allowance for loan losses increased 13.3%16.5%, or $4.2$5.3 million, from $32.1 million at December 31, 2009 to $36.3$37.4 million at March 31,June 30, 2010.  Pooled loan allocations increased $1.2$1.6 million from $10.2 million at December 31, 2009 to $11.4$11.8 million at March 31,June 30, 2010, which was primarily a result of the current level of charge-offs as well as management’s overall view on current credit quality.  Impaired loan allocations increased $2.1$1.9 million from $6.7 million at December 31, 2009 to $8.7$8.5 million at March 31,June 30, 2010 and other specificspecifically reviewed loan allocations increased $642,000$1.3 million from $12.5 million at December 31, 2009 to $13.2$13.8 million at March 31,June 30, 2010.  This increase was primarily due to the higher classified loan balance.addition of two commercial credits to the im paired loans category as described below.  The unallocate dunallocated component of the allowance for loan losses increased $345,000$612,000 from $2.7 million at December 31, 2009 to $3.0$3.3 million at March 31,June 30, 2010, based on management’s assessment of economic and other qualitative factors impacting the loan portfolio, particularly the ongoing economic challenges in the Company’s market area.  Management believesbelieved the allowance for loan losses at March 31,June 30, 2010 was at a level commensurate with the overall risk exposure of the loan portfolio. However, if economic conditions do not improve, certain borrowers may experience difficulty and the level of nonperforming loans, charge-offs and delinquencies could rise and require further increases in the provision for loan losses.

Total impaired loans increased by $6.9$9.2 million to $38.7$41.0 million at March 31,June 30, 2010 from $31.8 million at December 31, 2009. The increase in the impaired loans category was primarily due to the addition of two commercial credits totaling $8.6$10.6 million.  Both areOne is engaged in manufacturing.manufacturing and the other in transportation.  The increase in impaired loans was partially offset by $931,000 in paydowns received on one commercial relationship.  Of the $38.7$41.0 million in impaired loans, $30.7$29.3 million were on nonaccrual status at March 31,June 30, 2010.  A loan is impaired when full payment under the original loan terms is not expected. Impairment is evaluated in the aggregate for smaller-balance loans of similar nature such as residential mortgage, and consumer loans, and on an individual loan basis for other loans. If a loanlo an is impaired, a portion of the allowance may be allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral.

A $6.3$6.2 million credit to a manufacturer tied to the housing industry represented the second largest exposure in the nonperforming category.  The credit is accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring.  Borrower collateral including real estate, receivables, inventory and equipment support the credit, however, there are no guarantors.  The Company took a $906,000 charge-off related to this credit in 2008, and no charge-offs were taken in 2009 or in the first quarter of 2010.

A $2.8 million loan to a real estate holding company represents the third largest exposure in the nonperforming category.  The entity leased buildings used for manufacturing to an affiliated company which is now in bankruptcy.  Borrower collateral and personal guarantees support the credit.  The Company took a $1.1 million charge-off related to this credit in the third quarter of 2009, and no charge-offs have been taken in 2010.

There can be no assurances that full repayment of the loans discussed above will result.  Management does not foresee a rapid recovery from the challenging economic conditions in the Company’s markets as certain industries, including residential and commercial real estate development, recreational vehicle and mobile home manufacturing and other regional industries continue to experience general slow-downs and negative growth.  The Company’s continued growth strategy promoteshas promoted diversification among industries as well as a continued focus on enforcement of a strong credit environment and an aggressive position on loan work-out situations.  While the Company believes that the impact on the Company of these industry-specific issues affecting real estate development and recreational vehicle and mobile home manufactur ersm anufacturers will be somewhat mitigated by itsthe Company’s overall growth strategy, the economic recession impacting its entire geographic footprint will continue to present challenges.  Additionally, the Company’s overall asset quality position can be influenced by a small number of credits due to the focus on commercial lending activity and the granularity inherent in this strategy.

The FDIC’s risk basedrisk-based capital regulations require that all insured banking organizations maintain an 8.0% total risk basedrisk-based capital ratio. The FDIC has also established definitions of “well capitalized” as a 5.0% Tier I leverage capital ratio, a 6.0% Tier I risk basedrisk-based capital ratio and a 10.0% total risk basedrisk-based capital ratio. All of the Bank’s ratios continue to be above these “well capitalized” levels. The Federal Reserve also has established minimum regulatory capital requirements for bank holding companies.  As of March 31,June 30, 2010, the Company had regulatory capital in excess of these minimum requirements with a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio, Tier 1 risk basedrisk-based capital ratio and total risk basedrisk-based capital ratio of 12.3%9.9%, 14.4%11.8% and 15.6%13.0%, respectively.

RECENT LEGISLATION IMPACTING THE FINANCIAL SERVICES INDUSTRY
On July 21 2010, sweeping financial regulatory reform legislation entitled the “Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act” (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) was signed into law. The Dodd-Frank Act implements far-reaching changes across the financial regulatory landscape, including provisions that, among other things:
·  Create a Financial Services Oversight Council to identify emerging systemic risks and improve interagency cooperation;
·  Centralize responsibility for consumer financial protection by creating a new agency, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, responsible for implementing, examining and enforcing compliance with federal consumer financial laws;
·  Establish strengthened capital standards for banks and bank holding companies, and disallow trust preferred securities from being included in a bank’s Tier 1 capital determination (subject to a grandfather provision for existing trust preferred securities);
 
3539

 
·  Contain a series of provisions covering mortgage loan original standards affecting, among other things, originator compensation, minimum repayment standards and pre-payments;
·  Require financial holding companies, such as the Company, to be well-capitalized and well-managed as of July 21, 2011. Bank holding companies and banks must also be both well-capitalized and well-managed in order to acquire banks located outside their home state;
·  Grant the Federal Reserve the power to regulate debit card interchange fees;
·  Implement corporate governance revisions, including with regard to executive compensation and proxy access by shareholders, that apply to all public companies, not just financial institutions;
·  Make permanent the $250 thousand limit for federal deposit insurance and increase the cash limit of Securities Investor Protection Corporation protection from $100 thousand to $250 thousand and provide unlimited federal deposit insurance until January 1, 2013 for non-interest bearing demand transaction accounts at all insured depository institutions;
·  Repeal the federal prohibitions on the payment of interest on demand deposits, thereby permitting depository institutions to pay interest on business transaction and other accounts; and
·  Increase the authority of the Federal Reserve to examine the Company and its nonbank subsidiaries.
Many aspects of the Dodd-Frank Act are subject to rulemaking and will take effect over several years, making it difficult to anticipate the overall financial impact on the Company, its customers or the financial industry more generally. Provisions in the legislation that affect deposit insurance assessments, payment of interest on demand deposits and interchange fees could increase the costs associated with deposits as well as place limitations on certain revenues those deposits may generate. Provisions in the legislation that revoke the Tier 1 capital treatment of trust preferred securities and otherwise require revisions to the capital requirements of the Company and the Bank could require them to seek other sources of capital in the future.

The Company’s ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. The factors, which could have a material adverse effect on the operations and future prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries are detailed in the “Risk Factors” section included under Item 1a. of Part I of our Form 10-K. In addition to the risk factors described in that section, there are other factors that may impact any public company, including ours, which could have a material adverse effect on the operations and future prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries.  These additional factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

·  The economic impact of pastLegislative or regulatory changes or actions, including the “Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and any future terrorist attacks, acts of war or threats thereofConsumer Protection Act” and the responseregulations required to be promulgated there under, which may adversely affect the business of the United States to any such threatsCompany and attacks.its subsidiaries.
·  The costs, effects and outcomes of existing or future litigation.
·  Changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by state and federal regulatory agencies, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.
·  The ability of the Company to manage risks associated with the foregoing as well as anticipated.

These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest rate risk represents the Company’s primary market risk exposure. The Company does not have a material exposure to foreign currency exchange risk, does not have any material amount of derivative financial instruments and does not maintain a trading portfolio. The board of directors annually reviews and approves the policy used to manage interest rate risk. The policy was last reviewed and approved in May 2009.2010. The policy sets guidelines for balance sheet structure, which are designed to protect the Company from the impact that interest rate changes could have on net income, but does not necessarily indicate the effect on future net interest income. The Company, through its Asset/Liability Committee, manages interest rate risk by monitoring the computer simulated earnings impact of various rate scenarios and general market c onditions. The Company then modifies its long-term risk parameters by attempting to generate the type of loans, investments, and deposits that currently fit the Company’s needs, as determined by the Asset/Liability Committee. This computer simulation analysis measures the net interest income impact of various interest rate scenario changes during the next 12 months. If the change in net interest income is less than 3% of primary capital, the balance sheet structure is considered to be within acceptable risk levels. March 31,As of June 30, 2010, the Company’s potential pretax exposure was within the Company’s policy limit, and not significantly different from December 31, 2009.

Item 1.Legal proceedings

There are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Company or its subsidiaries is a party other than ordinary routinelitigation incidental to their respective businesses.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

ThereRecently enacted regulatory reforms could have been no material changes toa significant impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

On July 21, 2010, President Obama signed into law the risk factors disclosed in Item 1a. to Part IDodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Act”), which is perhaps the most significant financial reform since the Great Depression.  While the provisions of the Company’s 2009 Form 10-K.Act receiving the most public attention have generally been those more likely to affect larger institutions, the Act also contains many provisions which will affect smaller institutions such as ours in substantial and unpredictable ways.  Consequently, compliance with the Act’s provisions may curtail our revenue opportunities, increase our operating costs, require us to hold higher levels of regulatory capital and/or liquidity or otherwise adversely affect our business or financial results in the future.  Our management is actively reviewing the provisions o f the Act and assessing its probable impact on our business, financial condition, and result of operations.  However, because many aspects of the Act are subject to future rulemaking, it is difficult to precisely anticipate its overall financial impact on the Company and its subsidiary bank at this time.
