Page 7 of 12

Non-maturing deposits increased $71.3 million, or 6.0%, in the fourth quarter 2012 as compared to the third quarter 2012 and $153.6 million, or 13.8%, as compared to fourth quarter 2011. The growth in non-maturing deposits in 2012 included approximately $50.0 million in balances from five customers. We expect these funds will be withdrawn during the first and second quarters of 2013. Time deposits decreased $11.7 million as of December 31, 2012 as compared to September 30, 2012 and $12.7 million as compared to December 31, 2011. At December 31, 2012, noninterest-bearing deposits as a percentage of total deposits increased to 38.8% as compared to 36.9% at September 30, 2012 and 34.3% at December 31, 2011.

Securities sold under agreements to repurchase decreased $16.7 million from September 30, 2012 and increased $50.4 million from December 31, 2011 to $67.0 million at December 31, 2012. The increase from prior year was primarily related to a single depositor whose balance is expected to be re-deployed into the depositor's operations during the first quarter in 2013.

Total borrowings were $110.2 million at December 31, 2012, September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The entire balance of borrowings at each balance sheet date consisted of term notes with the FHLB.

The following table provides the capital ratios of the Company and the Bank as of the dates presented, along with the applicable regulatory capital requirements:

Generally, the allowance for loan losses is included in total capital for regulatory purposes; however, it is limited to 1.25% of total risk-weighted assets. At December 31, 2012, approximately $7.0 million of the Bank's allowance for loan losses was disallowed from being included in total risk-based capital under the regulatory capital rules, or approximately 0.48% of the Company's consolidated risk-weighted assets.

As previously announced, the Company has submitted redemption notices to the trustee with respect to all of its $10.0 million CenBank I 10.6% and $5.0 million CenBank II 10.2% trust preferred securities. The trust preferred securities will be redeemed at a price equal to 104.24% (CenBank I) and 104.08% (CenBank II) of the liquidation amount of $1,000 per trust preferred security, respectively, plus all accrued and unpaid distributions to the respective redemption dates. The redemption of the trust preferred securities will be funded by a dividend from the Bank. The Company expects to redeem these securities during the first quarter 2013. As a result of the redemption, our consolidated total risk-based capital ratio and our Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio will decline by approximately one percentage point and our leverage ratio will decline by approximately 0.8 percentage points. All three ratios will continue to remain well above the minimum capital requirements for holding companies and well capitalized requirements for banks.
