Purchased loans acquired in a business combination are recorded at fair value on their purchase date without a carryover of the related allowance for loan losses.
 
Upon acquisition, the Company evaluated whether each acquired loan (regardless of size) was within the scope of ASC 310-30, Receivables-Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality.  Purchased credit-impaired loans are loans that have evidence of credit deterioration since origination and it is probable at the date of acquisition that the Company will not collect all contractually required principal and interest payments. There were no material increases or decreases in the expected cash flows of these loans between May 31, 2011 (the "acquisition date") and December 31, 2011.  The fair value of purchased credit-impaired loans, on the acquisition date, was determined, primarily based on the fair value of loan collateral. The carrying value of purchased loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality was $1.3 million at December 31, 2011.
 
On the acquisition date, the preliminary estimate of the unpaid principal balance for all loans evidencing credit impairment acquired in the North Penn acquisition was $1.9 million and the estimated fair value of the loans was $1.5 million. Total contractually required payments on these loans, including interest, at the acquisition date was $3.6 million. However, the Company's preliminary estimate of expected cash flows was $1.9 million. At such date, the Company established a credit risk related non-accretable discount (a discount representing amounts which are not expected to be collected from the customer nor liquidation of collateral) of $1.7 million relating to these impaired loans, reflected in the recorded net fair value. Such amount is reflected as a non-accretable fair value adjustment to loans. The Company further estimated the timing and amount of expected cash flows in excess of the estimated fair value and established an accretable discount of $329,000 on the acquisition date relating to these impaired loans.

The carrying value of the loans acquired and accounted for in accordance with ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality, was determined by projecting discounted contractual cash flows. The table below presents the components of the purchase accounting adjustments related to the purchased impaired loans acquired in the North Penn acquisition as of May 31, 2011:

       There has been no allowance for loan losses recorded for acquired loans with or without specific evidence of deterioration in credit quality as of May 31, 2011 as well as those acquired without specific evidence of deterioration in credit quality as of December 31, 2011.  In addition, there has been no allowance for loan losses reversed.

The Company maintains a loan review system, which allows for a periodic review of our loan portfolio and the early identification of potential impaired loans.  Said system takes into consideration, among other things, delinquency status, size of loans, type and market value of collateral and financial condition of the borrowers.  Specific loan loss allowances are established for identified losses based on a review of such information.  A loan evaluated for impairment is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  All loans identified as impaired are evaluated independently.  The Company does not aggregate such loans for evaluation purposes.  Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial and construction loans by the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, the loan's obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent.

Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment.  Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual consumer and residential mortgage loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are part of a larger relationship that is impaired, or are classified as a troubled debt restructuring.

A loan is considered to be a troubled debt restructuring ("TDR") loan when the Company grants a concession to the borrower because of the borrower's financial condition that it would not otherwise consider.  Such concessions include the reduction of interest rates, deferments of principal or interest, or other modifications of interest rates that are less than the current market rate for new obligations with similar risk.  TDR loans that are in compliance with their modified terms and that yield a market rate may be removed from the TDR status after a period of performance.

Troubled debt restructured loans are those loans whose terms have been renegotiated to provide a reduction or deferral of principal or interest as a result of financial difficulties experienced by the borrower, who could not obtain comparable terms from alternate financing sources.  As of December 31, 2011, troubled debt restructured loans totaled $7.2 million and resulted in specific reserves of $1.2 million.  During 2011, there were no new loans identified as troubled debt restructurings.  As of December 31, 2010, troubled debt restructured loans totaled $7.6 million and resulted in specific reserves of $1.5 million.  During 2011, there were no loan modifications classified as troubled debt restructurings.

Management uses a seven point internal risk rating system to monitor the credit quality of the overall loan portfolio.  The first three categories are considered not criticized, and are aggregated as "Pass" rated.  The criticized rating categories utilized by management generally follow bank regulatory definitions.  The Special Mention category includes assets that are currently protected but are potentially weak, resulting in an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a Substandard classification.  Loans in the Substandard category have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt, and have a distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained if the weaknesses are not corrected.  All loans greater than 90 days past due are evaluated for proper classification.  Any portion of a loan that has been charged off is placed in the Loss category.

To help ensure that risk ratings are accurate and reflect the present and future capacity of borrowers to repay a loan as agreed, the Company has a structured loan rating process with several layers of internal and external oversight.  Generally, consumer and residential mortgage loans are included in the Pass categories unless a specific action, such as non performance, repossession, or death occurs to raise awareness of a possible credit event.  The Company's Loan Review Department is responsible for the timely and accurate risk rating of the loans on an ongoing basis.  Every credit which must be approved by Loan Committee or the Board of Directors is assigned a risk rating at time of consideration.  Loan Review also annually reviews relationships of $500,000 and over to assign or re-affirm risk ratings.  Loans in the Substandard categories that are collectively evaluated for impairment are given separate consideration in the determination of the allowance.

The following table presents the classes of the loan portfolio summarized by the aggregate Pass and the criticized categories of Special Mention, Substandard, Doubtful and Loss within the internal risk rating system as of  December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 (in thousands):

The Company's primary business activity is with customers located in northeastern Pennsylvania. Accordingly, the Company has extended credit primarily to commercial entities and individuals in this area whose ability to honor their contracts is influenced by the region's economy. The Company does not have any significant concentrations to any one customer.

As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company considered its concentration of credit risk to be acceptable.  The two highest concentrations are in the hospitality lodging industry and builders/contractors, with loans outstanding of $44.8 million, or 51.2% of bank capital, to the hospitality lodging industry and $12.9 million, or 14.9% of bank capital to builders/contractors.  In 2011, the Company recorded a charge-off of $948,000 on one motel loan that was considered impaired and subsequently obtained possession of the property and transferred the loan to foreclosed real estate.

Gross realized gains and gross realized losses on sales of residential mortgage loans were $241,000 and $21,000, respectively, in 2011 compared to $247,000 and $13,000, respectively, in 2010 and $309,000 and $6,000, respectively, in 2009.  The proceeds from the sales of residential mortgage loans totaled $8.9 million, $12.8 million and $21.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
