Part I

Item1. Business

General

MBT Financial Corp. (the “Corporation” or the “Company”) is a bank holding company as defined by the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHCA”) headquartered in Monroe, Michigan. It was incorporated under the laws of the State of Michigan in January 2000, at the direction of the management of Monroe Bank & Trust (the “Bank”), for the purpose of becoming a bank holding company by acquiring all the outstanding shares of Monroe Bank & Trust.

Monroe Bank & Trust was incorporated and chartered as Monroe State Savings Bank under the laws of the State of Michigan in 1905. In 1940, Monroe Bank & Trust consolidated with Dansard Bank and moved to the present address of its main office. Monroe Bank & Trust operated as a unit bank until 1950 when it opened its first branch office in Ida, Michigan. It then continued its expansion to its present total of 20 branch offices, including its main office. Monroe Bank & Trust changed its name from "Monroe State Savings Bank" to "Monroe Bank & Trust" in 1968.

Monroe Bank & Trust provides customary retail and commercial banking and trust services to its customers, including checking and savings accounts, time deposits, safe deposit facilities, commercial loans, personal loans, real estate mortgage loans, installment loans, IRAs, ATM and night depository facilities, treasury management services, telephone and internet banking, personal trust, employee benefit and investment management services. Monroe Bank & Trust’s service areas are comprised of Monroe, Wayne, and Lenawee counties in Southern Michigan.

Monroe Bank & Trust's deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") to applicable legal limits and Monroe Bank & Trustis supervised and regulated by the FDIC and Michigan Office of Financial and Insurance Regulation.

Competition

MBT Financial Corp., through its subsidiary, Monroe Bank & Trust, operates in a highly competitive industry. Monroe Bank & Trust's main competition comes from other commercial banks, national or state savings and loan institutions, credit unions, securities brokers, mortgage bankers, finance companies and insurance companies. Banks generally compete with other financial institutions through the banking products and services offered, the pricing of services, the level of service provided, the convenience and availability of services, and the degree of expertise and personal manner in which these services are offered. Monroe Bank & Trust encounters strong competition from most of the financial institutions in Monroe Bank & Trust's extended market area.

The Bank’s primary market area is Monroe County, Michigan. According to the most recent market data, there are ten deposit taking/lending institutions competing in the Bank’s market. According to the most recent FDIC Summary of Deposits, the Bank ranks first in market share in Monroe County with 52.69% of the market. In 2001, the Bank began expanding into Wayne County, Michigan, and currently ranks thirteenth out of twenty-six institutions operating in Wayne County with a market share of 0.31%. For the combined Monroe and Wayne County market, the Bank ranks seventh of twenty-seven institutions with a market share of 2.20%.

Supervision and Regulation

General 

As a bank holding company, we are required by federal law to file reports with, and otherwise comply with, the rules and regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“Federal Reserve” or “Federal Reserve Board.”) The Bank is a Michigan state chartered commercial bank and is not a member of the Federal Reserve, and therefore, is regulated and supervised by the Commissioner of the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services (“Michigan DIFS”) and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Michigan DIFS and the FDIC conduct periodic examinations of the Bank. The Bank is also a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (“FHLBI”) and subject to its regulations. The deposits of the Bank are insured under the provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act by the FDIC to the fullest extent provided by law. The Corporation is also subject to regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by virtue of its status as a public company.

The system of supervision and regulation applicable to the Corporation establishes a comprehensive framework for its operations and is intended primarily for the protection of the FDIC's Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”), the Bank's depositors and the public, rather than the Corporation’s shareholders and creditors. Changes in the regulatory framework, including changes in statutes, regulations and the agencies that administer those laws, could have a material adverse impact on the Corporation and its operations.

The federal and state laws and regulations that are applicable to banks and to some extent bank holding companies regulate, among other matters, the scope of their business, their activities, their investments, their reserves against deposits, the timing of the availability of deposited funds, the amount of loans to individual and related borrowers and the nature, amount of and collateral for certain loans, and the amount of interest that may be charged on loans. Various federal and state consumer laws and regulations also affect the services provided to consumers.

The Corporation and/or its subsidiary are required to file various reports with, and is subject to examination by regulators, including the Federal Reserve, the FDIC and Michigan DIFS. The Federal Reserve, FDIC and Michigan DIFS have the authority to issue orders to bank holding companies and/or banks to cease and desist from certain banking practices and violations of conditions imposed by, or violations of agreements with, the FRB, FDIC and Michigan DIFS. Certain of the Corporation's and/or its banking subsidiary regulators are also empowered to assess civil money penalties against companies or individuals in certain situations, such as when there is a violation of a law or regulation. Applicable state and federal law also grant certain regulators the authority to impose additional requirements and restrictions on the activities of the Corporation and or its banking subsidiary and, in some situations, the imposition of such additional requirements and restrictions will not be publicly available information.

Recent Regulatory Enforcement Actions

On July 12, 2010, the Bank entered into a stipulation and consent to the issuance of a consent order (the “Consent Order”) with the FDIC and the Michigan DIFS. The Consent Order became effective July 22, 2010 and required the Bank to take a number of corrective actions to improve asset quality and raise capital.  Effective June 30, 2014, the Consent Order was terminated by the FDIC and the Michigan DIFS following full compliance with its terms by the Bank. The Bank remained subject to certain informal regulatory requirements and restrictions, including, among other things, requirements to maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 9%, continue to reduce classified and delinquent assets, continually monitor its progress, and submit quarterly progress reports to the regulators. The informal agreement was rescinded on June 23, 2015.

Regulatory Reform

Congress, U.S. Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”), and the federal banking regulators, including the FDIC, have taken broad action since early September 2008 to address volatility in the U.S. banking system and financial markets. Beginning in late 2008, the U.S. and global financial markets experienced deterioration of the worldwide credit markets, which created significant challenges for financial institutions both in the United States and around the world. Dramatic declines in the housing market in 2009 and 2010, marked by falling home prices and increasing levels of mortgage foreclosures, resulted in significant write-downs of asset values by financial institutions, including government-sponsored entities and major commercial and investment banks. In addition, many lenders and institutional investors reduced and, in some cases, ceased to provide funding to borrowers, including other financial institutions, as a result of concern about the stability of the financial markets and the strength of counterparties.

4

In response to the financial market crisis and continuing economic uncertainty, the United States government, specifically the Treasury, the Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC working in cooperation with foreign governments and other central banks, took a variety of extraordinary measures designed to restore confidence in the financial markets and to strengthen financial institutions, including measures available under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (“EESA”), as amended by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (“ARRA”), which included the Troubled Asset Relief Program (“TARP”).The stated purpose of TARP was to restore confidence and stability to the U.S. banking system and to encourage financial institutions to increase their lending to customers and to each other.

EESA also temporarily increased FDIC deposit insurance on most accounts from $100,000 to $250,000. This increase became permanent at the end of 2010 under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (“Dodd-Frank Act”) and deposit insurance is now limited to $250,000 on all deposit accounts.

The Dodd-Frank Act is aimed, in part, at accountability and transparency in the financial system and includes numerous provisions that apply to and/or could impact the Corporation and its banking subsidiary. The Dodd-Frank Act implements changes that, among other things, affect the oversight and supervision of financial institutions, provide for a new resolution procedure for large financial companies, create a new agency responsible for implementing and enforcing compliance with consumer financial laws, introduce more stringent regulatory capital requirements, effect significant changes in the regulation of over the counter derivatives, reform the regulation of credit rating agencies, implement changes to corporate governance and executive compensation practices, incorporate requirements on proprietary trading and investing in certain funds by financial institutions (known as the "Volcker Rule"), require registration of advisers to certain private funds, and effect significant changes in the securitization market. In order to fully implement many provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act, various government agencies, in particular banking and other financial services agencies are required to promulgate regulations. Set forth below is a discussion of some of the major sections the Dodd-Frank Act and implementing regulations that have or could have a substantial impact on the Corporation and its banking subsidiary. Due to the volume of regulations required by the Dodd-Frank Act, not all proposed or final regulations that may have an impact on the Corporation or its banking subsidiary are necessarily discussed.

Debit Card Interchange Fees

The Dodd-Frank Act provides for a set of new rules requiring that interchange transaction fees for electronic debit transactions be "reasonable" and proportional to certain costs associated with processing the transactions. The Federal Reserve was given authority to, among other things, establish standards for assessing whether interchange fees are reasonable and proportional. In June 2011, the Federal Reserve issued a final rule establishing certain standards and prohibitions pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, including establishing standards for debit card interchange fees and allowing for an upward adjustment if the issuer develops and implements policies and procedures reasonably designed to prevent fraud. The provisions regarding debit card interchange fees and the fraud adjustment became effective October 1, 2011. The rules impose requirements on the Corporation and its banking subsidiary and may negatively impact our revenues and results of operations.

Consumer Issues

The Dodd-Frank Act created the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the “CFPB”), which has the authority to implement regulations pursuant to numerous consumer protection laws and has supervisory authority, including the power to conduct examinations and take enforcement actions, with respect to depository institutions with more than $10 billion in consolidated assets. The CFPB also has authority, with respect to consumer financial services to, among other things, restrict unfair, deceptive or abusive acts or practices, enforce laws that prohibit discrimination and unfair treatment and to require certain consumer disclosures.

Corporate Governance

The Dodd-Frank Act clarifies that the SEC may, but is not required to promulgate rules that would require that a company's proxy materials include a nominee for the board of directors submitted by a shareholder. Although the SEC promulgated rules to accomplish this, these rules were invalidated by a federal appeals court decision. The SEC has said that it will not challenge the ruling, but has not ruled out the possibility that new rules could be proposed. The Dodd-Frank Act requires stock exchanges to have rules prohibiting their members from voting securities that they do not beneficially own (unless they have received voting instructions from the beneficial owner) with respect to the election of a member of the board of directors (other than an uncontested election of directors of an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940), executive compensation or any other significant matter, as determined by the SEC by rule.

5

Executive Compensation

The Dodd-Frank Act provides for a say on pay for shareholders of all public companies. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, each company must give its shareholders the opportunity to vote on the compensation of its executives at least once every three years. The Dodd-Frank Act also adds disclosure and voting requirements for golden parachute compensation that is payable to named executive officers in connection with sale transactions.

The Dodd-Frank Act requires the SEC to issue rules directing the stock exchanges to prohibit listing classes of equity securities if a company's compensation committee members are not independent. The Dodd-Frank Act also provides that a company's compensation committee may only select a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other advisor after taking into consideration factors to be identified by the SEC that affect the independence of a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other advisor.

The SEC is required under the Dodd-Frank Act to issue rules obligating companies to disclose in proxy materials for annual meetings of shareholders information that shows the relationship between executive compensation actually paid to their named executive officers and their financial performance, taking into account any change in the value of the shares of a company's stock and dividends or distributions.

The Dodd-Frank Act provides that the SEC must issue rules directing the stock exchanges to prohibit listing any security of a company unless the company develops and implements a policy providing for disclosure of the policy of the company on incentive-based compensation that is based on financial information required to be reported under the securities laws and that, in the event the company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the material noncompliance of the company with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, the company will recover from any current or former executive officer of the company who received incentive-based compensation during the three-year period preceding the date on which the company is required to prepare the restatement based on the erroneous data, any exceptional compensation above what would have been paid under the restatement.

The Dodd-Frank Act requires the SEC, by rule, to require that each company disclose in the proxy materials for its annual meetings whether an employee or board member is permitted to purchase financial instruments designed to hedge or offset decreases in the market value of equity securities granted as compensation or otherwise held by the employee or board member.

Basel III

Internationally, both the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and the Financial Stability Board (established in April 2009 by the Group of Twenty (“G-20”) Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors to take action to strengthen regulation and supervision of the financial system with greater international consistency, cooperation and transparency) have committed to raise capital standards and liquidity buffers within the banking system (“Basel III”). On September 12, 2010, the Group of Governors and Heads of Supervision agreed to the calibration and phase-in of the Basel III minimum capital requirements (raising the minimum Tier 1 common equity ratio to 4.5% and minimum Tier 1 equity ratio to 6.0%, which was fully implementated January 2015) and introducing a capital conservation buffer of common equity of an additional 2.5% with full implementation by January 2019. In July 2013, the Federal Reserve Board released final rules regarding implementation of the Basel III regulatory capital rules for U.S. banking organizations. The final rules address a significant number of outstanding issues and questions regarding how certain provisions of Basel III are proposed to be adopted in the United States. Key provisions of the rules include the total phase-out from Tier 1 capital of trust preferred securities with grandfathering for bank holding companies with less than $15 billion in assets, a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% above minimum capital ratios, inclusion of accumulated other comprehensive income in Tier 1 common equity, inclusion in Tier 1 capital of perpetual preferred stock, and an effective minimum Tier 1 common equity ratio of 7.0%.

Bank Regulation

Michigan banks are regulated and supervised by the Commissioner of the Michigan DIFS and as a state non-member the Bank is regulated and supervised by the FDIC. Summarized below are some of the more important regulatory and supervisory laws and regulations applicable to the Bank.

Business Activities. The activities of state banks are governed by state as well as federal law and regulations. These laws and regulations delineate the nature and extent of the investments and activities in which state institutions may engage.

Loans to One Borrower. Michigan law provides that a Michigan commercial bank may not provide loans or extensions of credit to a person in excess of 15% of the capital and surplus of the bank. The limit, however, may be increased to 25% of capital and surplus if approval of two-thirds of the Bank’s board of directors is granted. At December 31, 2015, the Bank’s regulatory limit on loans to one borrower was $15.084 million or $25.140 million for loans approved by two-thirds of the Board of Directors. If the Michigan DIFS determines that the interests of a group of more than one person, co-partnership, association or corporation are so interrelated that they should be considered as a unit for the purpose of extending credit, the total loans and extensions of credit to that group are combined. At December 31, 2015, the Bank did not have any loans with one borrower that exceeded its regulatory limit.

At December 31, 2015, loans that had high loan to value ratios at origination were quantified by management and represented less than 10% of total outstanding loans as of the balance sheet date. Additionally, management quantified all loans (mortgage, consumer and commercial) that required interest only payments as of the balance sheet date and determined that these types of loans were less than 10% of total loans outstanding at December 31, 2015. Based on these facts, management concluded no concentrations of credit risk existed at December 31, 2015.

Dividends. The Corporation’s ability to pay dividends on its common stock depends on its receipt of dividends from the Bank. The Bank is subject to restrictions and limitations in the amount and timing of the dividends it may pay to the Corporation. Dividends may be paid out of a Michigan commercial bank’s net income after deducting all bad debts. A Michigan commercial bank may only pay dividends on its common stock if the bank has a surplus amounting to not less than 20% of its capital after the payment of the dividend. If a bank has a surplus less than the amount of its capital, it may not declare or pay any dividend until an amount equal to at least 10% of net income for the preceding one-half year (in the case of quarterly or semi-annual dividends) or at least 10% of net income of the preceding two consecutive half-year periods (in the case of annual dividends) has been transferred to surplus.

Federal law also affects the ability of a Michigan commercial bank to pay dividends. The FDIC’s prompt corrective action regulations prohibit an insured depository institution from making capital distributions, including dividends, if the institution has a regulatory capital classification of “undercapitalized,” or if it would be undercapitalized after making the distribution. The FDIC may also prohibit the payment of dividends if it deems any such payment to constitute an unsafe and unsound banking practice.

Michigan DIFS Assessments. Michigan commercial banks are required to pay supervisory fees to the Michigan DIFS to fund the operations of the Michigan DIFS. The amount of supervisory fees paid by a bank is based upon a formula involving the bank’s total assets, as reported to the Michigan DIFS.

State Enforcement. Under Michigan law, the Michigan DIFS has broad enforcement authority over state chartered banks and, under certain circumstances, affiliated parties, insiders, and agents. If a Michigan commercial bank does not operate in accordance with the regulations, policies and directives of the Michigan DIFS or is engaging, has engaged or is about to engage in an unsafe or unsound practice in conducting the business of the bank, the Michigan DIFS may issue and serve upon the bank a notice of charges with respect to the practice or violation. The Michigan DIFS enforcement authority includes: cease and desist orders, receivership, conservatorship, removal and suspension of officers and directors, assessment of monetary penalties, emergency closures, liquidation and the power to issue orders and declaratory rulings.

7

Federal Enforcement. The FDIC has primary federal enforcement responsibility over state non-member banks and has the authority to bring actions against the institution and all institution-affiliated parties, including stockholders, and any attorneys, appraisers and accountants, who knowingly or recklessly participate in wrongful action likely to have an adverse effect on an insured institution. Formal enforcement action may range from the issuance of a capital directive, cease and desist, consent order to removal of officers and/or directors of the institution as well as receivership, conservatorship or termination of deposit insurance. Civil penalties cover a wide range of violations and can amount to $25,000 per day, or even $1 million per day in especially egregious cases. Federal law also establishes criminal penalties for certain violations.

Capital Requirements. Under FDIC regulations, federally-insured state-chartered banks that are not members of the Federal Reserve (“state non-member banks”), such as the Bank, are required to comply with minimum leverage capital requirements. The minimum capital leverage requirement is a ratio of Tier 1 capital to total assets of 4%.Tier 1 capital is principally composed of the sum of common stockholders’ equity, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock (including any related surplus) and minority investments in certain subsidiaries, less intangible assets (except for certain servicing rights and credit card relationships). As of December 31, 2015, the Tier 1 capital to average total assets ratio for the Bank was 10.91%.

The Bank must also comply with the FDIC risk-based capital guidelines. Risk-based capital ratios are determined by allocating assets and specified off-balance sheet items to risk-weighted categories, with higher levels of capital being required for the categories perceived as representing greater risk. For example, under the FDIC’s risk-weighting system, cash and securities backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government are given a 0% risk weight, loans fully secured by one-to-four family residential properties generally have a 50% risk weight and commercial loans have a risk weight of 100%.

State non-member banks must maintain a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 8%, of which at least one-half must be Tier 1 capital. Total capital consists of Tier 1 capital plus Tier 2 or supplementary capital items, the principal elements of which include allowances for loan losses in an amount of up to 1.25% of risk-weighted assets, cumulative preferred stock, a portion of the net unrealized gain on equity securities and other capital instruments such as subordinated debt.

The FDIC has adopted a regulation providing that it will take into account the exposure of a bank’s capital and economic value to changes in interest rate risk in assessing a bank’s capital adequacy. For more information about interest rate risk, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.”

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) established a system of prompt corrective action to resolve the problems of undercapitalized financial institutions. Under this system, the federal banking regulators have established five capital categories ("well capitalized," "adequately capitalized," "undercapitalized," "significantly undercapitalized" and "critically undercapitalized"), and all institutions are assigned one such category. Federal banking regulators are required to take various mandatory supervisory actions and are authorized to take other discretionary actions with respect to institutions in the three undercapitalized categories. The severity of the action depends upon the capital category in which the institution is placed. At December 31, 2015, the Bank’s regulatory capital classification was “well capitalized.”

For further discussion regarding the Corporation’s regulatory capital requirements, see Note 13 to the 2015 Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, for a discussion of changes in the regulatory capital requirements which went into effect on January 1, 2015, see the section of this item captioned “Supervision and Regulation – Regulatory Reform – Basel III,” above.

Deposit Insurance Assessments. All of the Bank’s deposits are insured under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act by the FDIC to the fullest extent permitted by law. As an FDIC-insured institution, the Bank is required to pay deposit insurance premium assessments to the FDIC. The FDIC has adopted a risk-based assessment system whereby FDIC-insured depository institutions pay insurance premiums at rates based on their risk classification. An institution’s risk classification is assigned based on its capital levels and the level of supervisory concern the institution poses to the regulators.

8

The Dodd-Frank Act makes permanent the general $250,000 deposit insurance limit for insured deposits. The Dodd-Frank Act changes the deposit insurance assessment framework, primarily by basing assessments on an institution’s average total consolidated assets less average tangible equity (subject to risk-based adjustments that would further reduce the assessment base for custodial banks) rather than domestic deposits, which is expected to shift a greater portion of the aggregate assessments to large banks, as described in detail below. The Dodd-Frank Act also eliminates the upper limit for the reserve ratio designated by the FDIC each year, increases the minimum designated reserve ratio of the DIF from 1.15% to 1.35% of the estimated amount of total insured deposits by September 30, 2020, and eliminates the requirement that the FDIC pay dividends to depository institutions when the reserve ratio exceeds certain thresholds. On December 20, 2010, the FDIC raised the minimum designated reserve ratio of DIF to 2%. The ratio is higher than the minimum reserve ratio of 1.35% as set by the Dodd-Frank Act. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, the FDIC is required to offset the effect of the higher reserve ratio on small insured depository institutions, defined as those with consolidated assets of less than $10 billion.

On February 7, 2011, the FDIC approved a final rule on Assessments, Dividends, Assessment Base and Large Bank Pricing. The final rule, mandated by the Dodd-Frank Act, changed the deposit insurance assessment system from one that is based on domestic deposits to one that is based on average consolidated total assets minus average tangible equity. Because the assessment base under the Dodd-Frank Act is larger than the previous assessment base, the final rule’s assessment rates are lower than the previous rates, which achieved the FDIC’s goal of not significantly altering the total amount of revenue collected from the industry. In addition, the final rule adopted a “scorecard” assessment scheme for larger banks and suspends dividend payments if the DIF reserve ratio exceeds 1.5% but provides for decreasing assessment rates when the DIF reserve ratio reaches certain thresholds. The final rule also determines how the effect of the higher reserve ratio will be offset for institutions with less than $10 billion of consolidated assets.

The FDIC may terminate a depository institution’s deposit insurance upon a finding that the institution’s financial condition is unsafe or unsound or that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices or has violated any applicable rule, regulation, order or condition enacted or imposed by the institution’s regulatory agency.

Transactions with Related Parties. The Bank’s authority to engage in transactions with an “affiliate” (generally, any company that controls or is under common control with a depository institution) is limited by federal law. Federal law places quantitative and qualitative restrictions on these transactions and imposes specified collateral requirements for certain transactions. The purchase of low quality assets from affiliates is generally prohibited. Transactions with affiliates must be on terms and under circumstances that are at least as favorable to the institution as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with non-affiliated companies.

The Bank’s authority to extend credit to executive officers, directors and 10% shareholders (“insiders”), as well as entities such persons control, is also governed by federal law. Among other restrictions, these loans are generally required to be made on terms substantially the same as those offered to unaffiliated individuals and not involve more than the normal risk of failure to make required repayment. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 generally prohibits the Corporation from extending or maintaining credit, arranging for the extension of credit, or renewing an extension of credit, in the form of a personal loan to or for any director or executive officer (or equivalent thereof), except for extensions of credit made, maintained, arranged or renewed by the Corporation that are subject to the federal law restrictions discussed above.

Standards for Safety and Soundness. The federal banking agencies have adopted Interagency Guidelines prescribing Standards for Safety and Soundness. The guidelines set forth the safety and soundness standards that the federal banking agencies use to identify and address problems at insured depository institutions. The guidelines address internal controls and information systems, the internal audit system, credit underwriting, loan documentation, interest rate risk exposure, asset growth, asset quality, earnings and compensation, and fees and benefits. If the appropriate federal banking agency determines that an institution fails to meet any standard prescribed by the guidelines, the agency may require the institution to submit an acceptable plan to achieve compliance with the standard.

Investments and Activities. Since the enactment of the FDIC Improvement Act, all state-chartered FDIC insured banks have generally been limited to activities of the type and in the amount authorized for national banks, notwithstanding state law. The FDIC Improvement Act and the FDIC permit exceptions to these limitations. For example, the FDIC is authorized to permit such institutions to engage in state authorized activities or investments that do not meet this standard (other than direct equity investments) for institutions that meet all applicable capital requirements if it is determined that such activities or investments do not pose a significant risk to the DIF.

Mergers and Acquisitions. The Bank may engage in mergers or consolidations with other depository institutions or their holding companies, subject to review and approval by applicable state and federal banking agencies. When reviewing a proposed merger, the federal banking regulators consider numerous factors, including the effect on competition, the financial and managerial resources and future prospects of existing and proposed institutions, the effectiveness of FDIC-insured institutions involved in the merger in addressing money laundering activities and the convenience and needs of the community to be served, including performance under the Community Reinvestment Act.

Interstate Branching. Beginning June 1, 1997, federal law permitted the responsible federal banking agencies to approve merger transactions between banks located in different states, regardless of whether the merger would be prohibited under the law of the two states. The law also permitted a state to “opt in” to the provisions of the Interstate Banking Act before June 1, 1997, and permitted a state to “opt out” of the provisions of the Interstate Banking Act by adopting appropriate legislation before that date. Michigan did not “opt out” of the provisions of the Interstate Banking Act. Accordingly, beginning June 1, 1997, a Michigan commercial bank could acquire an institution by merger in a state other than Michigan unless the other state had opted out. The Interstate Banking Act also authorizes de novo branching into another state, but only if the host state enacts a law expressly permitting out of state banks to establish such branches within its borders. Effective with the enactment of The Dodd-Frank Act, the FDI Act and the National Bank Act have been amended to remove the expressly required “opt-in” concept applicable to de novo interstate branching and now permits national and insured state banks to engage in de novo in interstate branching if, under the laws of the state where the new branch is to be established, as a state bank chartered in that state would be permitted to establish a branch.

Community Reinvestment Act. The Community Reinvestment Act requires that, in connection with examinations of financial institutions within their respective jurisdictions, the Federal Reserve, the FDIC, or the OCC, shall evaluate the record of each financial institution in meeting the credit needs of its local community, including low and moderate-income neighborhoods. These facts are also considered in evaluating mergers, acquisitions, and applications to open a branch or facility. Failure to adequately meet these criteria could impose additional requirements and limitations on the Bank. The Bank received a “satisfactory” rating in its most recent Community Reinvestment Act evaluation by the FDIC. Additionally, we must publicly disclose the terms of various Community Reinvestment Act-related agreements.

Privacy. The Federal Reserve, FDIC and other bank regulatory agencies have adopted final guidelines (the "Guidelines) for safeguarding confidential, personal customer information. The Guidelines require each financial institution, under the supervision and ongoing oversight of its Board of Directors or an appropriate committee thereof, to create, implement and maintain a comprehensive written information security program designed to ensure the security and confidentiality of customer information, protect against any anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of such information and protect against unauthorized access to or use of such information that could result in substantial harm or inconvenience to any customer. The Corporation has adopted a customer information security program that has been approved by the Corporation's Board of Directors (the "Board”). The GLBA requires financial institutions to implement policies and procedures regarding the disclosure of nonpublic personal information about consumers to non-affiliated third parties. In general, the statute requires explanations to consumers on policies and procedures regarding the disclosure of such nonpublic personal information, and, except as otherwise required by law, prohibits disclosing such information except as provided in the banking subsidiary's policies and procedures. The Corporation's banking subsidiary has implemented a privacy policy.

Anti-Money Laundering Initiatives and the USA Patriot Act. A major focus of federal governmental policy on financial institutions in recent years has been aimed at combating money laundering and terrorist financing. The USA Patriot Act of 2001 (the “USA Patriot Act”) substantially broadened the scope of United States’ anti-money laundering laws and regulations by imposing significant new compliance and due diligence obligations, creating new crimes and penalties and expanding the extra-territorial jurisdiction of the United States. The U.S. Department of the Treasury has issued a number of implementing regulations which apply to various requirements of the USA Patriot Act to financial institutions such as us. These regulations impose obligations on financial institutions to maintain appropriate policies, procedures and controls to detect, prevent and report money laundering and terrorist financing and to verify the identity of their customers. Failure of a financial institution to maintain and implement adequate programs to combat money laundering and terrorist financing, or to comply with all of the relevant laws or regulations, could have serious legal and reputation consequences for the institution, including the imposition of enforcement actions and civil monetary penalties.

Federal Home Loan Bank. The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (“FHLBI”), one of the 12 regional Federal Home Loan Banks. The FHLBI provides a central credit facility primarily for member institutions. The Bank, as a member of the FHLBI, is required to acquire and hold shares of capital stock in the FHLBI in an amount equal to at least 1.0% of the aggregate principal amount of its unpaid residential mortgage loans and similar obligations at the beginning of each year, or 1/20 of its advances (borrowings) from the FHLBI, whichever is greater. The Bank was in compliance with this requirement and its investment in FHLBI stock at December 31, 2015 was $4.1 million. The FHLB Banks function as a central reserve bank by providing credit for financial institutions throughout the United States. Advances are generally secured by eligible assets of a member, which include principally mortgage loans and obligations of, or guaranteed by, the U.S. government or its agencies. Advances can be made to the Bank under several different credit programs of the FHLBI. Each credit program has its own interest rate, range of maturities and limitations on the amount of advances permitted based on the financial condition of the member institution and the adequacy of collateral pledged to secure the credit.

Federal Reserve Board. The Federal Reserve Board regulations require banks to maintain non-interest-earning reserves against their net transaction accounts, nonpersonal time deposits and Eurocurrency liabilities (collectively referred to as reservable liabilities).

Overdraft Regulation. The Federal Reserve Board amended Regulation E (Electronic Fund Transfers) effective July 1, 2010 to require consumers to opt in, or affirmatively consent, to the institution’s overdraft service for ATM and one-time debit card transactions before overdraft fees may be assessed on the account. Consumers also must be provided a clear disclosure of the fees and terms associated with the institution’s overdraft service.

Other Regulations. Interest and other charges collected or contracted for by the Bank are subject to state usury laws and federal laws concerning interest rates. The Bank's loan operations are also subject to federal laws applicable to credit transactions, such as:

• the federal "Truth-In-Lending Act," governing disclosures of credit terms to consumer borrowers;

• the "Home Mortgage Disclosure Act of 1975," requiring financial institutions to provide information to enable the public and public officials to determine whether a financial institution is fulfilling its obligation to help meet the housing needs of the community it serves;

• the "Equal Credit Opportunity Act," prohibiting discrimination on the basis of race, creed or other prohibited factors in extending credit;

• the "Fair Credit Reporting Act of 1978," governing the use and provision of information to credit reporting agencies;

11

• the "Fair Debt Collection Act," governing the manner in which consumer debts may be collected by collection agencies; and

• the rules and regulations of the various federal agencies charged with the responsibility of implementing these federal laws.

The deposit operations of the Bank are subject to:

• the "Right to Financial Privacy Act," which imposes a duty to maintain confidentiality of consumer financial records and prescribes procedures for complying with administrative subpoenas of financial records; and

• the "Electronic Funds Transfer Act" and Regulation E issued by the Federal Reserve to implement that act, which govern automatic deposits to and withdrawals from deposit accounts and customers' rights and liabilities arising from the use of automated teller machines and other electronic banking services.

Holding Company Regulation 

General. The Corporation, as a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, is subject to regulation, supervision, and examination by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. The Corporation is also required to file annually a report of its operations with the Federal Reserve Board. This regulation and oversight is generally intended to ensure that the Corporation limits its activities to those allowed by law and that it operates in a safe and sound manner without endangering the financial health of the Bank.

Under the Bank Holding Company Act, the Corporation must obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board before it may acquire control of another bank or bank holding company, merge or consolidate with another bank holding company, acquire all or substantially all of the assets of another bank or bank holding company, or acquire direct or indirect ownership or control of any voting shares of any bank or bank holding company if, after such acquisition, the Corporation would directly or indirectly own or control more than 5% of such shares.

Federal statutes impose restrictions on the ability of a bank holding company and its nonbank subsidiaries to obtain extensions of credit from its subsidiary bank, on the subsidiary bank’s investments in the stock or securities of the holding company, and on the subsidiary bank’s taking of the holding company’s stock or securities as collateral for loans to any borrower. A bank holding company and its subsidiaries are also prevented from engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in connection with any extension of credit, lease or sale of property, or furnishing of services by the subsidiary bank.

A bank holding company is required to serve as a source of financial and managerial strength to its subsidiary banks and may not conduct its operations in an unsafe or unsound manner. In addition, it is the Federal Reserve Board policy that a bank holding company should stand ready to use available resources to provide adequate capital to its subsidiary banks during periods of financial stress or adversity and should maintain the financial flexibility and capital-raising capacity to obtain additional resources for assisting its subsidiary banks. A bank holding company’s failure to meet its obligations to serve as a source of strength to its subsidiary banks will generally be considered by the Federal Reserve Board to be an unsafe and unsound banking practice or a violation of the Federal Reserve Board regulations, or both.

Non-Banking Activities. The business activities of the Corporation, as a bank holding company, are restricted by the Bank Holding Company Act. Under the Bank Holding Company Act and the Federal Reserve Board’s bank holding company regulations, the Corporation may only engage in, acquire, or control voting securities or assets of a company engaged in, (1) banking or managing or controlling banks and other subsidiaries authorized under the Bank Holding Company Act and (2) any non-banking activity the Federal Reserve Board has determined to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks to be a proper incident thereto. These include any incidental activities necessary to carry on those activities as well as a lengthy list of activities that the Federal Reserve Board has determined to be so closely related to the business of banking as to be a proper incident thereto.

12

Financial Modernization. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, which became effective in March 2000, permits greater affiliation among banks, securities firms, insurance companies, and other companies under a new type of financial services company known as a “financial holding company.” A financial holding company essentially is a bank holding company with significantly expanded powers. Financial holding companies are authorized by statute to engage in a number of financial activities previously impermissible for bank holding companies, including securities underwriting, dealing and market making; sponsoring mutual funds and investment companies; insurance underwriting and agency; and merchant banking activities. The Act also permits the Federal Reserve Board and the Treasury Department to authorize additional activities for financial holding companies if they are “financial in nature” or “incidental” to financial activities. A bank holding company may become a financial holding company if each of its subsidiary banks is well capitalized, well managed, and has at least a “satisfactory” CRA rating. A financial holding company must provide notice to the Federal Reserve Board within 30 days after commencing activities previously determined by statute or by the Federal Reserve Board and Department of the Treasury to be permissible. The Corporation has not submitted notice to the Federal Reserve Board of our intent to be deemed a financial holding company.

Regulatory Capital Requirements. The Federal Reserve Board has adopted capital adequacy guidelines under which it assesses the adequacy of capital in examining and supervising a bank holding company and in analyzing applications to it under the Bank Holding Company Act. The Federal Reserve Board’s capital adequacy guidelines are similar to those imposed on the Bank by the FDIC.

Restrictions on Dividends. The Corporation relies on dividends from the Bank to pay dividends to shareholders. The Michigan Banking Code of 1999 states, in part, that bank dividends may be declared and paid only out of accumulated net earnings and may not be declared or paid unless surplus (retained earnings) is at least equal to contributed capital. The Bank has not declared or paid any dividends that have caused its retained earnings to be reduced below the amount required. Finally, dividends may not be declared or paid if the Bank is in default in payment of any assessment due the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

The Federal Reserve Board has issued a policy statement on the payment of cash dividends by bank holding companies, which expresses the Federal Reserve Board’s view that a bank holding company should pay cash dividends only to the extent that the holding company’s net income for the past year is sufficient to cover both the cash dividends and a rate of earnings retention that is consistent with the holding company’s capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition. The Federal Reserve Board also indicated that it would be inappropriate for a company experiencing serious financial problems to borrow funds to pay dividends. Furthermore, under the federal prompt corrective action regulations, the Federal Reserve Board may prohibit a bank holding company from paying any dividends if the holding company’s bank subsidiary is classified as “undercapitalized.”

Employees

MBT Financial Corp. has no employees other than its three officers, each of whom is also an employee and officer of Monroe Bank & Trust and who serve in their capacity as officers of MBT Financial Corp. without compensation. As of December 31, 2015, Monroe Bank & Trust had 294 full-time employees and 10 part-time employees. Monroe Bank & Trust provides a number of benefits for its full-time employees, including health and life insurance, workers' compensation, social security, paid vacations, numerous bank services, and a 401(k) plan.

Item A. Risk Factors

Our business may be adversely affected by conditions in the financial markets and economic conditions generally.

Our success depends significantly on the general economic conditions of the State of Michigan. Unlike larger regional or national banks that are more geographically diversified, the Bank provides banking and financial services to customers primarily in Southeast Michigan and Northwest Ohio.

Southeast Michigan and the United States as a whole recently went through a prolonged downward economic cycle that began in 2007 and still has some lingering effects today. Significant weakness in market conditions adversely impacted all aspects of the economy including our business. In particular, dramatic declines in the housing market, with decreasing home prices and increasing delinquencies and foreclosures, negatively impacted the credit performance of construction loans, which resulted in significant write-downs of assets by many financial institutions. Business activity across a wide range of industries and regions was greatly reduced, and local governments and many businesses experienced serious difficulty due to the lack of consumer spending and the lack of liquidity in the credit markets. In addition, unemployment has been high throughout this period. The business environment was adverse for many households and businesses in the Southeast Michigan market, United States, and worldwide.

14

Overall, during the past eight years, the general business environment has had an adverse effect on our business, and while there has been recent improvement in general economic conditions in our market with evidence of stabilizing home prices and a reduction in unemployment levels, there can be no assurance that the environment will continue to improve in the near term. Unemployment levels have improved, but housing values remain low, and demand for housing is still weak due. Consequently, particularly in Michigan, which has been one of the most adversely impacted states in the United States by the recent recession, there can be no assurance that the economic conditions will continue to improve in the near term. Furthermore, a worsening of economic conditions would likely exacerbate the adverse effects of these difficult market conditions on us and others in the financial institutions industry. Continued market stress could have a material adverse effect on the credit quality of the Bank’s loans and, therefore, our financial condition and results of operations.

The Bank previously operated under agreements with its governmental regulators and may be subject to further regulatory enforcement actions.

On July 12, 2010, the Bank agreed to the issuance of a consent order (the “Consent Order”) with the FDIC and the Michigan DIFS Bank & Trust Division requiring, among other things, the achievement of certain minimum regulatory capital levels, the imposition of certain lending restrictions, the enhancement of the credit quality of the Bank’s loan portfolio, the increased monitoring by the Board of Directors of the adequacy of the Bank’s allowance for loan and lease losses, and a prohibition on the declaration and payment of any dividends without prior regulatory approval. The Consent Order was terminated by the regulatory agencies effective June 30, 2014.  However, certain informal regulatory requirements and restrictions remained in effect, including requirements to continue to improve credit quality, a restriction prohibiting dividend payments without prior approval from the FDIC and the DIFS, and the maintenance of a specified Tier 1 capital ratio. The informal regulatory requirements were rescinded effective June 23, 2015. However, any failure to maintain acceptable asset quality, reserves, and capital levels may result in resumption of adverse regulatory actions.

Our business is subject to credit risk and the impact of nonperforming loans. 

We face the risk that loan losses, including unanticipated loan losses due to changes in loan portfolios, fraud and economic factors, could require additional increases in the allowance for loan losses. Additions to the allowance for loan losses would cause our net income to decline and could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Making loans is an essential element of our business, and there is a risk that customer loans will not be repaid. The risk of nonpayment is affected by a number of factors, including:

• the duration of the loan;

• credit risks of each particular borrower;

• changes in unemployment, economic and industry conditions; and

• in the case of a collateralized loan, the potential inadequacy of the value of the collateral in the event of default, such as has resulted from the deterioration in commercial and residential real estate values.

15

The Bank’s allowance for loan losses may not be adequate.

We attempt to maintain an appropriate allowance for loan losses to provide for potential inherent losses in our loan portfolio. We periodically determine the amount of the allowance based on consideration of several factors including, among others, the ongoing review and grading of the loan portfolio, consideration of our past loan loss experience as well as that of the banking industry, trends in past due and nonperforming loans, risk characteristics of the various classifications of loans, existing economic conditions, the fair value of underlying collateral, the size and diversity of individual credits, and other qualitative and quantitative factors which could affect probable credit losses. We determine the amount of the allowance for loan losses by considering these factors and by using estimates related to the amount and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans, estimated losses on pools of homogeneous loans based on our historical loss experience with additional qualitative factors for various issues, and allocation of specific reserves for special situations that are unique to the measurement period with consideration of current economic trends and conditions, all of which are susceptible to significant change. As an integral part of their examination process, various federal and state regulatory agencies also review the allowance for loan losses. These agencies may require that certain loan balances be classified differently or charged off when their credit evaluations differ from those of management, based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination. Although we believe the level of the allowance for loan losses is appropriate as recorded in the consolidated financial statements, because current economic conditions are uncertain and future events are inherently difficult to predict, the anticipated amount of estimated loan losses, and therefore the adequacy of the allowance, could change significantly. Management is of the opinion that the Allowance for Loan Losses of $10,896,000 as of December 31, 2015 was adequate.

Our loan portfolio is collateralized predominantly by real estate. 

A substantial portion of the Bank’s loan portfolio is sensitive to real estate values. The declines in the market value of real estate that occurred during the most recent national and regional decline during the 2008 – 2010 timeframe resulted in significant increases in delinquencies and losses on certain segments of our portfolio. While the real estate market has stabilized and is no longer experiencing the rapid decreases in value and increases in inventory of foreclosed properties that occurred during 2008 – 2010 timeframe, there remain substantial risks associated with real estate collateral values, particularly in the Bank’s primary market in Southeast Michigan. As of December 31, 2015, more than 75% of the Bank’s loan portfolio was secured by real estate.

We are subject to interest rate risk. 

Our earnings and cash flows are largely dependent upon the Bank’s net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on interest earning assets such as loans and securities and interest paid on interest bearing liabilities such as deposits and borrowings. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors that are beyond our control, including general economic and market conditions and policies of various governmental and regulatory agencies and, in particular, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Changes in monetary policy, including changes in interest rates, could influence not only the interest the Bank receives on loans and investment securities and the amount of interest it pays on deposits and borrowings, but such changes could also affect the Bank’s ability to originate loans and obtain deposits and the fair values of the Bank’s financial assets and liabilities. If the interest rates paid on deposits and other borrowings increase at a faster rate or decrease at a slower rate than the interest rates received on loans and investments, the Bank’s net interest income, and therefore its and our earnings, could be adversely affected.

Although management believes it has implemented effective asset and liability management strategies to reduce the potential effects of changes in interest rates on the Bank’s results of operations, any substantial, unexpected, or prolonged change in market interest rates or in the term structure of interest rates could have a material adverse effect on the Bank’s, and our, financial condition and results of operations. See “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in this document for further discussion related to the Bank’s management of interest rate risk.

16

Real estate market volatility and future changes in disposition strategies could result in net proceeds that differ significantly from other real estate owned (“OREO”) fair value appraisals. 

The Bank’s OREO portfolio consists of properties that it obtained through foreclosure or other collection actions in satisfaction of loans. OREO properties are recorded at the lower of the recorded investment in the loans for which the properties served as collateral or estimated fair value, less estimated selling costs. Generally, in determining fair value, an orderly disposition of the property is assumed, except where a different disposition strategy is expected. Significant judgment is required in estimating the fair value of OREO property, and the period of time within which such estimates can be considered current is significantly shortened during periods of market volatility. While the real estate market has stabilized and is no longer experiencing the rapid decreases in value and increases in inventory of foreclosed properties that occurred during 2008 through 2010, there remain substantial risks associated with real estate collateral values, particularly in Southeast Michigan.

In response to market conditions and other economic factors, the Bank may utilize alternative sale strategies other than orderly dispositions as part of its OREO disposition strategy, such as immediate liquidation sales. In this event, as a result of the significant judgments required in estimating fair value and the variables involved in different methods of disposition, the net proceeds realized from such sales transactions could differ significantly from estimates used to determine the fair value of the Bank’s OREO properties. As of December 31, 2015, the Bank’s OREO portfolio was valued at $2.4 million.

We face the risk of cyber-attack to our computer systems.

Our computer systems, software and networks have been and will continue to be vulnerable to unauthorized access, loss or destruction of data (including confidential client information), account takeovers, unavailability of service, computer viruses or other malicious code, cyber-attacks and other events. These threats may derive from human error, fraud or malice on the part of employees or third parties, or may result from accidental technological failure. If one or more of these events occurs, it could result in the disclosure of confidential client information, damage to our reputation with our clients and the market, additional costs to us (such as repairing systems or adding new personnel or protection technologies), regulatory penalties and financial losses, to both us and our clients and customers. Such events could also cause interruptions or malfunctions in our operations (such as the lack of availability of our online banking system), as well as the operations of our clients, customers or other third parties. Although we maintain safeguards to protect against these risks, there can be no assurance that we will not suffer losses in the future that may be material in amount.

The Bank operates in a highly competitive industry. 

The Bank faces substantial competition in all areas of its operations from a variety of different competitors, many of which are larger and may have more financial resources. Such competitors primarily include regional and national banks within the Bank’s market. The Bank also faces competition from many other types of financial institutions, including savings and loan institutions, credit unions, finance companies, brokerage firms, insurance companies, and other financial intermediaries. The financial services industry could become even more competitive as a result of legislative, regulatory, and technological changes and continued consolidation. Banks, securities firms, and insurance companies can merge under the umbrella of a financial holding company, which can offer virtually any type of financial service, including banking, securities underwriting, and insurance. Also, technology has lowered barriers to entry and made it possible for non-banks to offer products and services traditionally provided by banks, such as automatic transfer and automatic payment systems. Many of the Bank’s competitors have fewer regulatory constraints, and may have lower cost structures. Additionally, many competitors may be able to achieve economies of scale, and as a result, may offer a broader range of products and services as well as better pricing for those products and services than the Bank can. Increased competition could adversely affect the Bank’s growth and profitability, which, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

17

We and the Bank are subject to extensive government regulation and supervision. 

Banking regulations are primarily intended to protect depositors’ funds, federal deposit insurance funds, and the banking system as a whole, not shareholders. These regulations affect the Bank’s lending practices, capital structure, investment practices, dividend policy, and growth, among other things. Congress and federal regulatory agencies continually review banking laws, regulations, and policies for possible changes. Changes to statutes, regulations, or regulatory policies, including changes in interpretation or implementation of statutes, regulations, or policies, could affect us in substantial and unpredictable ways. Such changes could subject us to additional costs, limit the types of financial services and products we and the Bank may offer and/or increase the ability of non-banks to offer competing financial products and services, among other things. Failure to comply with laws, regulations, or policies could result in sanctions by regulatory agencies, civil money penalties, and/or reputational damage, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. While we have policies and procedures designed to prevent any such violations, there can be no assurance that such violations will not occur.

Current economic conditions, particularly in the financial markets, have resulted in government regulatory agencies placing increased focus on and scrutiny of the financial services industry. The U.S. government has intervened on an unprecedented scale, responding to what has been commonly referred to as the financial crisis, by introducing various actions and passing legislation such as the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. Such programs and legislation subject us and other financial institutions to restrictions, oversight and/or costs that may have an impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or the price of our common stock.

New proposals for legislation and regulations continue to be introduced that could further substantially increase regulation of the financial services industry. We cannot predict whether any pending or future legislation will be adopted or the substance and impact of any such new legislation. Additional regulation could affect us in a substantial way and could have an adverse effect on the Bank’s and our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

The new Basel III Capital Standards may have an adverse effect on us. 

In July 2013, the Federal Reserve Board released its final rules which will implement in the United States the Basel III regulatory capital reforms from the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and certain changes required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. Under the final rule, minimum requirements increased for both the quality and quantity of capital held by banking organizations. Consistent with the international Basel framework, the rule includes a new minimum ratio of common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5 percent and a common equity tier 1 capital conservation buffer of 2.5 percent of risk-weighted assets that will apply to all supervised financial institutions. The rule also, among other things, raises the minimum ratio of tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets from 4 percent to 6 percent and includes a minimum leverage ratio of 4 percent for all banking organizations. Banking organizations with consolidated assets equal to or in excess of $250 billion began transitioning into the new rules effective January 1, 2014. All other covered banking organizations were required to begin transitioning effective January 1, 2015. The new capital rules require us to maintain higher levels of capital.

If the concentration level of the Bank’s commercial real estate loan portfolio increases, we may be subject to additional regulatory scrutiny.

The FDIC, the Federal Reserve Board, and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency have promulgated joint guidance on sound risk management practices for financial institutions with concentrations in commercial real estate lending. Under the guidance, a financial institution that is actively involved in commercial real estate lending should perform a risk assessment to identify concentrations. A financial institution may have a concentration in commercial real estate lending if, among other factors, (i) total reported loans for construction, land development, and other land represent 100% or more of total capital or (ii) total reported loans secured by multifamily and nonfarm non-residential properties, loans for construction, land development, and other land loans otherwise sensitive to the general commercial real estate market, including loans to commercial real estate related entities, represent 300% or more of total capital and increased by 50% or more during the prior 36 months. The joint guidance requires heightened risk management practices including board and management oversight and strategic planning, development of underwriting standards, risk assessment, and monitoring through market analysis and stress testing. As of December 31, 2015, the Bank did not meet the level of concentration in commercial real estate lending activity that would indicate a need under the regulatory guidance for increased risk assessment.

18

The Bank is dependent upon outside third parties for processing and handling of its records and data. 

The Bank relies on software developed by third party vendors to process various Bank transactions. In some cases, the Bank has contracted with third parties to run its proprietary software on behalf of the Bank. These systems include, but are not limited to, general ledger, payroll, employee benefits, trust record keeping, loan and deposit processing, merchant processing, and securities portfolio management. While the Bank performs a review of controls instituted by the vendors over these programs in accordance with industry standards and performs its own testing of user controls, the Bank must rely on the continued maintenance of these controls by the outside parties, including safeguards over the security of customer data. In addition, the Bank maintains backups of key processing output daily in the event of a failure on the part of any of these systems. Nonetheless, the Bank may incur a temporary disruption in its ability to conduct its business or process its transactions, or incur damage to its reputation if the third party vendor fails to adequately maintain internal controls or institute necessary changes to systems. Such disruption or breach of security may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

The Bank continually encounters technological change. 

The banking and financial services industry continually undergoes technological changes, with frequent introductions of new technology-driven products and services. In addition to serving customers better, the effective use of technology increases efficiency and enables financial institutions to reduce costs. The Bank’s future success will depend, in part, on its ability to address the needs of its customers by using technology to provide products and services that enhance customer convenience and that create additional efficiencies in the Bank’s operations. Many of the Bank’s competitors have greater resources to invest in technological improvements, and the Bank may not effectively implement new technology-driven products and services or do so as quickly, which could reduce its ability to effectively compete. Failure to successfully keep pace with technological change affecting the financial services industry could have a material adverse effect on the Bank’s business and, in turn, our financial condition and results of operations.

The Bank is subject to claims and litigation pertaining to fiduciary responsibility and other legal risks. 

From time to time, customers and others make claims and take legal action pertaining to the Bank’s performance of fiduciary responsibilities. If such claims and legal actions are not resolved in our favor, they may result in significant financial liability and/or adversely affect the market perception of the Bank and its products and services as well as customer demand for those products and services. Any financial liability or reputational damage could have a material adverse effect on the Bank’s business, which, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Consumers and businesses may decide not to use banks to complete their financial transactions. 

Technology and other changes are allowing parties to complete financial transactions that historically have involved banks at one or both ends of the transaction. For example, consumers can now pay bills and transfer funds directly without banks. This could result in the loss of fee income as well as the loss of customer deposits and income generated from those deposits and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

19

Our controls and procedures may fail or be circumvented. 

Management regularly reviews and updates our internal controls, disclosure controls and procedures, and corporate governance policies and procedures. Any system of controls, however well designed and operated, is based in part on certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurances that the objectives of the system are met. Any failure or circumvention of our controls and procedures or failure to comply with regulations related to controls and procedures could have a material adverse effect on the Bank’s business, and in turn, our results of operations and financial condition.

Financial services companies depend upon the accuracy and completeness of information about customers and counterparties. 

In deciding whether to extend credit or enter into other transactions, the Bank may rely on information furnished by or on behalf of customers and counterparties, including financial statements, credit reports and other financial information. The Bank may also rely on representations of those customers, counterparties or other third parties, such as independent auditors, as to the accuracy and completeness of that information. Reliance on inaccurate or misleading financial statements, credit reports or other financial information could have a material adverse effect on the Bank’s business and, in turn, our financial condition and results of operations.

We are subject to risks arising from potential increases in FDIC insurance premiums. 

The FDIC maintains a deposit insurance fund to resolve the cost of bank failures. The FDIC’s deposit insurance fund is funded by fees assessed on insured depository institutions including us. Future deposit premiums paid by us depend on the level of the deposit insurance fund and the magnitude and cost of future bank failures. As a consequence, we may be required to pay significantly higher FDIC premiums in the event market developments significantly deplete the deposit insurance fund of the FDIC and reduced the ratio of reserves to insured deposits.

We are subject to changes in federal and state tax laws and changes in interpretation of existing laws. 

Our financial performance is impacted by federal and state tax laws. Given the current economic and political environment, and ongoing state budgetary pressures, the enactment of new federal or state tax legislation may occur. The enactment of such legislation, or changes in the interpretation of existing law, including provisions impacting tax rates, apportionment, consolidation or combination, income, expenses, and credits, may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

We are subject to changes in accounting principles, policies, or guidelines. 

Our financial performance is impacted by accounting principles, policies, and guidelines. Changes in these are continuously occurring and, given the current economic environment, more drastic changes may occur. The implementation of such changes could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

We may not be able to attract and retain skilled people. 

Our successful operation will be greatly influenced by our ability to retain the services of our existing senior management and to attract and retain qualified additional senior and middle management. The unexpected loss of the services of any of our key management personnel, or the inability to recruit and retain qualified personnel in the future, could have an adverse effect on our business and financial results.

20

We are a bank holding company and our sources of funds are limited. 

We are a bank holding company, and our operations are primarily conducted by the Bank, which is subject to significant federal and state regulation. Cash available to pay dividends to our shareholders is derived primarily from dividends received from the Bank. Our ability to receive dividends or loans from the Bank is restricted. Dividend payments by the Bank to us in the future will require generation of future earnings by the Bank and could require regulatory approval if the proposed dividend is in excess of prescribed guidelines. Further, our right to participate in the assets of the Bank upon its liquidation, reorganization, or otherwise will be subject to the claims of the Bank’s creditors, including depositors, which will take priority.

Severe weather, natural disasters, acts of war or terrorism and other external events could significantly impact the Bank’s business.

Severe weather, natural disasters, acts of war or terrorism and other adverse external events could have a significant impact on the Bank’s ability to conduct business. Such events could affect the stability of the Bank’s deposit base, impair the ability of borrowers to repay outstanding loans, reduce the value of collateral securing loans, cause significant property damage, result in loss of revenue and/or cause the Bank to incur additional expenses. Although management has established disaster recovery policies and procedures, the occurrence of any such event could have a material adverse effect on the Bank’s business, which, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Managing reputational risk is important to attracting and maintaining customers, investors, and employees. 

Threats to the Bank’s reputation can come from many sources, including adverse sentiment about financial institutions generally, unethical practices, employee misconduct, failure to deliver minimum standards of service or quality, compliance deficiencies, and questionable or fraudulent activities of our customers. The Bank has policies and procedures in place that seek to protect our reputation and promote ethical conduct. Nonetheless, negative publicity may arise regarding the Bank’s business, employees, or customers, with or without merit, and could result in the loss of customers, investors, and employees; costly litigation; a decline in revenues; and increased governmental regulation.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Introduction – The Company is a bank holding company with one subsidiary, Monroe Bank & Trust (“Bank”). The Bank is a commercial bank that operates 14 branch offices in Monroe County, Michigan and 6 branches in Wayne County, Michigan. The Bank also operates a Wealth Management and Loan Origination office in Lenawee County, Michigan. The Bank’s primary source of income is interest income on its loans and investments and its primary expense is interest expense on its deposits and borrowings. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated statements and footnotes.

Executive Overview – The Bank is operated as a community bank, primarily providing loan, deposit, and wealth management services to the people, businesses, and communities in its market area. In addition to our commitment to our mission of serving the needs of our local communities, we are focused on improving our asset quality, profitability, and shareholder value.

The national economic recovery continued in 2015, and due to improvement in the domestic auto industry, the recovery in economic conditions in southeast Michigan was evident. Local and state unemployment rates decreased, but real estate values and new construction and real estate development activity have not fully recovered. A significant objective again this year was improvement in our asset quality. The stronger economic environment benefited our loan customers, and also provided us with opportunities to upgrade or dispose of large amounts of problem assets. Our total classified assets, which include non-accrual and internally classified problem loans, other real estate owned, and classified investment securities, decreased $23.7 million, or 43.5% during 2015. The growth in retained earnings was the primary reason shareholders’ equity increased $12.8 million, or 9.5% in 2015. The reduction in classified assets and the increase in equity caused the vitally important classified assets to capital ratio to improve dramatically, from 41.6% at the end of 2014 to 20.1% at the end of 2015. The significant improvement in our asset quality over the past year and the decrease in our net charge offs from $2.5 million in 2014 to a net recovery of $0.7 million in 2015, allowed us to decrease our Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (ALLL) from $13.2 million to $10.9 million in 2015. The portfolio of loans held for investment increased $7.0 million during the year, and the ALLL as a percent of loans decreased from 2.16% to 1.77%. Local property values and the unemployment rate have improved over the past two years and the pace of the recovery in our local markets was good in 2015. We will continue our efforts on improving asset quality in 2016, and we also plan to focus on growing our loan portfolio, improving our net interest margin, increasing revenue, and managing expenses.

Net Interest Income increased $2,274,000 in 2015 compared to 2014 as the average earning assets increased $74.8 million, or 6.7% and the net interest margin was unchanged at 3.11%. The provision for loan losses decreased from a reversal of $0.5 million in 2014 to a reversal of $3.0 million in 2015. Decreases in the historical loss rates, improvements in the risk classifications of loans, and a reduction in the amount of specific allocations during 2015 decreased the amount of ALLL required. As a result, we reduced the ALLL by $2.3 million by recording a provision reversal of $3.0 million and net recoveries of $0.7 million. Non-interest income increased $2.0 million or 14.8%, primarily due to improvements in gains and losses on securities transactions and other real estate owned. Excluding securities and OREO activity, non-interest income increased $0.3 million or 1.7%. Non-interest expenses decreased $0.5 million, or 1.2% primarily due to higher equipment and marketing costs in 2015, partially offset by lower FDIC insurance assessments, which decreased due to a reduction in our assessment rate, and lower OREO expenses, which decreased due to the reduction in the amount of properties owned. We completed an efficiency initiative in the fourth quarter of 2015, and we expect salaries, benefits, and occupancy expenses to improve in 2016. Federal Income Tax expense increased $2.4 million in 2015 due to the $7.2 million increase in income before the provision for income taxes.

Critical Accounting Policies - The Bank’s Allowance for Loan Losses is a “critical accounting estimate” because it is an estimate that is based on assumptions that are highly uncertain, and if different assumptions were used or if any of the assumptions used were to change, there could be a material impact on the presentation of the Corporation’s financial condition. These assumptions include, but are not limited to, collateral values and the effect of economic conditions on the financial condition of the Bank’s borrowers. To determine the Allowance for Loan Losses, the Bank estimates losses on all loans that are not classified as non-accrual or renegotiated by applying historical loss rates, adjusted for environmental factors, to those loans. This portion of the analysis utilizes the loss history for the most recent twelve quarters, adjusted for qualitative factors including recent delinquency rates, real estate values, and economic conditions. In addition, all loans over $250,000 that are nonaccrual and all loans that are renegotiated are individually tested for impairment. Impairment exists when the carrying value of a loan is greater than the realizable value of the collateral pledged to secure the loan or the present value of the cash flow of the loan. Any amount of monetary impairment is included in the Allowance for Loan Losses. Management is of the opinion that the Allowance for Loan Losses of $10,896,000 as of December 31, 2015 was adequate.

25

Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at the lower of fair value less costs to sell or the loan carrying amount at the date of foreclosure. Subsequent to foreclosure, appraisals or other independent valuations are periodically obtained by Management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements – No recent accounting pronouncements are expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements. Accounting Standards Update 2015-14 (ASU 2015-14), “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” was issued in August 2015. ASU 2015-14 adopts a standardized approach for revenue recognition and was a joint effort with the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The new revenue recognition standard is based on a core principle of recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2015-14 does not apply to financial instruments. ASU 2015-14 is effective for public entities for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 (therefore, for the year ending December 31, 2018 for the Corporation). Early implementation is permitted only as of annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that period. Management is currently assessing the impact to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update 2016-01 (ASU 2016-01), “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” was issued in January 2016. The most significant change included in ASU 2016-01 is the requirement for certain equity investments (excluding investments that are consolidated or accounted for under the equity method) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Alternatively, equity investments without readily determinable fair values can be recorded at cost, and periodically evaluated for impairment using a qualitative assessment. If the qualitative assessment indicates the investment is impaired, it is required to be measured at fair value. The ASU also eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently assessing the impact to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

Results of Operations

Comparison of 2015 to 2014 – The Company reported a Net Profit of $12.1 million in 2015, compared to the Net Profit of $7.3 million in 2014. The increase of $4.8 million was mainly due to the improvement of $2.5 million in the recovery of loan losses in 2015 which was the result of the net recovery of loan losses of $0.7 million in 2015 and the reduction in the amount of Allowance for Loan Losses required as of December 31, 2015 compared to December 31, 2014. The Income Before Provision for Taxes increased $7.2 million, or 73.0%, due to the increase in the net interest income, the decrease in the provision for loan losses, and the increase in non-interest income. The primary source of earnings for the Bank is its net interest income, which increased $2.3 million, or 6.6% compared to 2014. Net interest income increased even though the net interest margin was unchanged at 3.11% as the average earning assets increased $74.8 million, or 6.7%. Interest rates remained low throughout 2015, which caused the yield on earning assets to decrease 10 basis points in 2015. The low rates caused a decrease in the cost of funds, as maturing high cost certificates of deposit funds moved into lower cost non-maturity deposits such as savings, demand, and money market deposit accounts. The Bank also paid off maturing Federal Home Loan Bank advances in 2014, contributing to the 9 basis point decrease in the cost of interest bearing liabilities. Interest income increased $1.5 million during 2015 as the yield on earning assets decreased from 3.46% to 3.36%, while the amount of average earning assets increased from $1.115 billion to $1.190 billion. Interest expense decreased $772,000 compared to 2014 even though the average amount of interest bearing liabilities increased $24.9 million because the cost of the interest bearing liabilities decreased from 0.43% in 2014 to 0.34% in 2015. The decrease in the interest expense was mainly due to the reduction in the amount of customer Certificates of Deposit and the cost of those certificates. During the prolonged low interest rate environment, customers have been moving maturing CD funds to lower cost transaction accounts.

The Provision for Loan Losses decreased from a reversal of $0.5 million in 2014 to a reversal of $3.0 million in 2015 as the amount of net charge offs decreased from $2.5 million in 2014 to a net recovery of $0.7 million in 2015, and the amount of Allowance for Loan Losses required decreased $2.3 million. The improving economic conditions and continued high collection efforts contributed to the net recovery in 2015. The Allowance as a percent of loans decreased from 2.16% as of December 31, 2014 to 1.77% as of December 31, 2015 as the Allowance decreased by 17.5% and the loan portfolio increased by 1.1%.

26

Other Income increased 14.8% from $13.4 million in 2014 to $15.3 million in 2015. Service charges and other fees increased $194,000, or 4.9% due to a change in the fees charged and benefits provided on our primary personal checking account product. Debit Card income increased $264,000, or 12.1% due to increased debit card usage. Income from securities transactions improved $1,052,000 because the Bank realized gains on bonds owned at discounts that were called at par in 2015, after realizing a loss on the sales of pooled Trust Preferred Collateralized Debt Obligations (TruP CDOs) in 2014. Losses on sales of Other Real Estate decreased $662,000 as real estate values continued to improve in southeast Michigan in 2015, resulting in less write downs and losses on sales. Mortgage loan origination income increased 53.2% from 2014 to 2015 as refinance activity increased due to the continued low interest rates and improving real estate values improved property owners’ equity and ability to refinance. Rental income on OREO properties decreased $219,000, or 50.2% due to the reduction in OREO assets.

Other expenses decreased $467,000, or 1.2% in 2015 compared to 2014. Salaries and benefits expense decreased $143,000, or 0.6% as an efficiency initiative in the fourth quarter of 2015 resulted in a decrease in the number of full time equivalent employees. The full impact of the initiative is expected to be achieved in 2016, and it is also expected to lead to a reduction in occupancy expenses in 2016. Marketing expense increased $265,000, or 31.6% mainly because the checking account product enhancements caused an increase of $134,000, advertising expenses increased $42,000, and event sponsorships increased $51,000. Expenses of Other Real Estate Owned decreased $675,000, or 64.5% primarily due to lower property taxes due to the reduction in properties owned. FDIC insurance assessments decreased $719,000, or 36.9% as our assessment rate decreased in the second quarter of 2015 when our informal agreement with our regulators was terminated. Other insurance decreased $169,000, or 16.3% due to the termination of the Consent Order in 2014.

The Company’s net income for 2015, before provision for income taxes, was $17.1 million, an increase of $7.2 million compared to the pretax income of $9.9 million in 2014. In 2015 we recorded a federal income tax expense of $5.0 million, reflecting an effective tax rate of 29.4%. In 2014 we recorded a tax expense of $2.6 million, reflecting an effective tax rate of 26.0%. The higher effective tax rate in 2015 was due to the decrease in the portion of pretax income that was from nontaxable sources, primarily consisting of municipal investments and Bank Owned Life Insurance. The net income in 2015 was $12.1 million, an increase of $4.8 million compared to the net income of $7.3 million in 2014.

Comparison of 2014 to 2013 – The Company reported a Net Profit of $7.3 million in 2014, compared to the Net Profit of $25.5 million in 2013. The decrease of $18.2 million was mainly due to the increase of $20.7 million in the Federal Income Taxes caused by the tax benefit of $18.1 million in 2013 which was the result of the elimination of the remaining deferred tax asset valuation allowance. The Income Before Provision for Taxes increased $2.5 million, or 33.2%, due to the increase in the net interest income and the reduction in the Provision for Loan Losses, which exceeded the reduction in non-interest income and the increase in non-interest expenses. The primary source of earnings for the Bank is its net interest income, which increased $1.5 million, or 4.5% compared to 2013. Net interest income increased as the net interest margin increased from 2.98% to 3.11% and the average earning assets increased marginally. Interest rates remained low throughout 2014, which caused the yield on earning assets to decrease 7 basis points in 2014. The low rates caused a decrease in the cost of funds, as maturing high cost certificates of deposit funds moved into lower cost non-maturity deposits such as savings, demand, and money market deposit accounts. The Bank also paid off maturing Federal Home Loan Bank advances in 2013 and 2014, contributing further to the 22 basis point decrease in the cost of interest bearing liabilities. Interest income decreased $0.7 million during 2014 as the yield on earning assets decreased from 3.53% to 3.46%, while the amount of average earning assets increased slightly from $1.11 billion to $1.12 billion. Interest expense decreased $2.2 million compared to 2013 as the average amount of interest bearing liabilities decreased $40.9 million and the cost of the interest bearing liabilities decreased from 0.65% in 2013 to 0.43% in 2014. The decrease in the average interest bearing liabilities and the average cost of funds was mainly due to the repayment of $95 million in Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings in the second quarter of 2013. The average cost of the borrowings that were repaid was 2.57%.

The Provision for Loan Losses decreased from a provision of $2.2 million in 2013 to a reversal of $0.5 million in 2014 as the amount of net charge offs decreased from $3.3 million in 2013 to $2.5 million in 2014, and the amount of Allowance for Loan Losses required decreased $3.0 million. The improving economic conditions and continued high credit standards and collection efforts contributed to the decrease in charge offs. The Allowance as a percent of loans decreased from 2.71% as of December 31, 2013 to 2.16% as of December 31, 2014 as the Allowance decreased by 18.5% and the loan portfolio increased by 2.1%.

27

Other Income decreased 7.8% from $14.5 million in 2013 to $13.4 million in 2014. Wealth Management income increased $398,000, or 9.1% as improvement in market values of financial assets and new assets brought into the department led to an increase in assets under management. Service charges and other fees decreased $346,000, or 8.0% due to a reduction in NSF fees collected. Gains on securities transactions decreased $1,078,000 primarily because the Bank realized a loss of $2.6 million on the sale of three pooled Trust Preferred Collateralized Debt Obligations (TruP CDOs) in 2014. The sale of the TruP CDOs removed $9.4 million of classified assets from the Bank’s balance sheet. Losses on sales of Other Real Estate improved $496,000 as real estate values continued to improve in southeast Michigan in 2014. Mortgage loan origination income decreased 46.2% from 2013 to 2014 as refinance activity decreased due to the increase in interest rates and new loan activity remained low. Rental income on OREO properties decreased $337,000, or 43.6% due to the reduction in OREO assets.

Other expenses increased $601,000, or 1.6% in 2014 compared to 2013. Salaries and benefits expense increased $1.7 million, or 8.0% as salaries increased $1.0 million due to increases in salary rates and the number of employees and the increase in pretax profits caused an increase of $0.7 million in the officers’ incentive plan in 2014. Occupancy expense decreased $317,000 or 10.4% mainly due to a decrease in maintenance costs due to environmental cleanup costs at our Temperance branch location in 2013. We have accrued the estimated expense to complete the cleanup project and perform the ongoing monitoring that is expected to be required. FDIC insurance assessments decreased $824,000, or 29.7% as our assessment rate decreased in the second quarter of 2014 when our Consent Order with our regulators was terminated.

The Company’s net income for 2014, before provision for income taxes, was $9.9 million, an increase of $2.5 million compared to the pretax income of $7.4 million in 2013. In 2014 we recorded a federal income tax expense of $2,572,000, reflecting an effective tax rate of 26.0%. In the third quarter of 2013 we recorded a tax benefit of $18.8 million to eliminate the remaining valuation allowance on our deferred tax asset, and we recorded a tax expense of $0.7 million for the tax expense on our fourth quarter 2013 income. The total tax recorded in 2013 was a benefit of $18.1 million, for an effective tax rate of (244%). The net income in 2014 was $7.3 million, a decrease of $18.2 million compared to the net income of $25.5 million in 2013.

Interest Rates and Selected Ratios - Earnings for the Bank are usually highly reflective of the Net Interest Income. The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) of the Federal Reserve maintained the fed funds rate target in the range of 0-0.25% from 2008 until increasing it slightly, to 0.25-0.50% in December, 2015. The yield curve shape became steeply, positively sloped in 2009 and through 2010. Due to continued high unemployment and the absence of inflation, the Fed extended its Quantitative Easing (QE) program through 2012 in an attempt to keep longer term market rates low and encourage borrowing, which reduced the slope from the yield curve. Labor markets began to gain strength in 2012, continuing through 2013, and the fed began to taper its securities purchases in 2013, which caused an increase in longer term market interest rates and an increase in the slope of the yield curve in the second half of 2013. Although the Fed concluded its QE purchases in 2014, global economic uncertainty increased demand for US Treasury securities, and longer term rates began to drop, flattening the yield curve throughout 2015 and into 2016. Loan and investment yields follow long term market yields, and the yield on our loans decreased from 4.96% in 2013 to 4.74% in 2014 and 4.67% in 2015. The yields on our investment securities increased from 1.76% in 2013 to 1.96% in 2014, but decreased to 1.94% in 2015. As a result of the low interest rate environment and increasing loan demand, we are maintaining our investment portfolio in shorter duration securities and cash reserves. This liquidity helped us fund loan growth and will benefit earnings when interest rates increase, but it is contributing to our low investment portfolio yield. Funding costs are more closely tied to the short term rates, and the average cost of our deposits decreased from 0.41% in 2013 to 0.29% in 2014 and 0.21% in 2015. The cost of borrowed funds was primarily based on the 3 month LIBOR in 2013, and our cost of borrowed funds was 2.73% that year. The cost of borrowed funds increased to 3.56% in 2014 as the last variable rate borrowing matured, leaving on remaining, higher cost, fixed rate debt on our balance sheet. The only remaining fixed rate borrowing carries a cost of 4.71% and matures in June, 2016. The effect of these changes on our net interest margin was an increase from 2.98% in 2013 to 3.11% in 2014, where it remained in 2015. The average cost of interest bearing deposits was 0.26%, 0.36%, and 0.50%, for 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively. The following table shows selected financial ratios for the same three years.

	2015			2014			2013
Return on Average Assets		0.93	%		0.59	%		2.12	%
Return on Average Equity		8.67	%		6.00	%		28.78	%
Dividend Payout Ratio		0.00	%		0.00	%		0.00	%
Average Equity to Average Assets		10.70	%		9.90	%		7.36	%

Balance Sheet Activity – Compared to 2014, the total assets of the Company increased $63.7 million, or 5.0%. The increase was funded by the growth of $53.6 million in deposit funding and the growth of $12.8 million in capital. Loan demand continued to improve in 2015, but it was mitigated by principal reductions of problem loans during the year, and total loans held for investment increased $7.0 million, or 1.1%. We expect the loan portfolio to continue to increase slowly throughout 2016. Deposit and capital funding increased more than loans, and even with the increase in the amount of cash and due from banks, investment securities increased. The investment portfolio primarily consists of mortgage backed securities issued by GNMA, and debt securities issued by U.S government agencies and states and political subdivisions. Due to the low interest rate environment and our anticipated cash needs for 2016, we continue to hold a large amount of our excess funds in cash and cash equivalents instead of fully investing it in securities. Capital increased $12.8 million, due to the earnings of $12.1 million, stock issuance of $0.5 million, and a reduction of $0.3 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCL) that was caused by a decrease in the unrealized losses on our available for sale investment securities. The decrease in AOCL was caused by an improvement in the market values of securities available for sale.

Asset Quality - The Company uses an internal loan classification system as a means of tracking and reporting problem and potential problem credit assets. Loans that are rated 10 to 45 are considered “pass” or high quality credits, loans rated 50 to 55 are “watch” credits, and loans rated 60 and higher are “problem assets”, which includes nonperforming loans. Classified assets include all problem loans, Other Real Estate Owned (OREO), and sub investment grade securities. Asset quality began to deteriorate along with economic conditions in 2007. Improving asset quality has been our primary focus since then, and the amount of classified assets decreased $23.7 million, or 43.5%, from $54.6 million to $30.9 million during 2015. The reduction in classified assets was accomplished through the sale of $3.3 million of classified loans, a net reduction of $3.2 million in OREO, and an additional $17.2 million reduction in classified loans that was the result of principal reductions and loan rating upgrades. The reduction in classified assets and the growth in capital improved the critically important classified assets to capital ratio from 41.6% as of December 31, 2014 to 20.1% as of December 31, 2015. We will continue to emphasize asset quality improvement in 2016, but we expect the rate of improvement to decrease.

The Company monitors the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (ALLL) and the values of the OREO each quarter, making adjustments when necessary. We believe that the ALLL adequately provides for the losses in the portfolio and that the reported OREO value is accurate as of December 31, 2015. Loans that were past due decreased from $11.3 million, or 1.85% of loans, as of December 31, 2014 to $8.3 million, or 1.35% of loans as of December 31, 2015. Delinquency is one of the indications of potential problems with a loan, and this decrease in delinquencies may be an indication that the classified asset level will continue to improve in 2016. Although the global economy is showing signs of weakness and instability, we expect the recovery of the national and local economic environment to slowly continue in 2016. This may result in continued improvement in employment and property values in our market area, as well as reduced delinquency rates. We expect a small provision for loan losses will be required to maintain an adequate ALLL in 2016.

Cash Flow – Cash flows provided by operating activities increased $3.6 million compared to 2014 even though the net income increased $4.8 million from $7.3 million to $12.1 million. This occurred because a significant contributor to the higher earnings in 2015 was the decrease in the provision for loan losses, which is a noncash item. The amount of cash used for investing activity decreased $39.5 million, from $75.6 million in 2014 to $36.1 million in 2015. The amount of cash received from maturities, redemptions, and sales of investment securities increased $69.0 million while the amount of investment securities purchased only increased $38.1 million as the low interest rate environment resulted in an increase in early redemptions and limited opportunities to reinvest at desired returns. Cash flows provided by financing activity increased $15.5 million in 2015 as deposits increased $11.5 million more in 2015 and $12.0 million less was used to repay maturing borrowed funds. Common stock issuance decreased $8.0 million as the Company completed a rights offering to raise capital in 2014. As a result, total cash and cash equivalents increased $32.9 million in 2015 and the Company increased its cash held at the Federal Reserve. Management believes that the Bank has adequate cash to fund its anticipated loan growth and deposit activity in 2016.

Liquidity and Capital - The Corporation has maintained sufficient liquidity to allow for fluctuations in deposit levels. Internal sources of liquidity are provided by the maturities of loans and securities as well as holdings of securities Available for Sale. External sources of liquidity include a line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis, a Federal funds line that has been established with a correspondent bank, and Repurchase Agreements with money center banks that allow us to pledge securities as collateral for borrowings. As of December 31, 2015, the Bank utilized none of its authorized limit of $275 million with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis and none of its $25 million federal funds line with its correspondent bank.

Total stockholders’ equity of the Corporation was $147.3 million at December 31, 2015 and $134.5 million at December 31, 2014. The stockholders’ equity increased $12.8 million during the year and the ratio of equity to assets increased from 10.52% as of December 31, 2014 to 10.98% as of December 31, 2015. Federal bank regulatory agencies issued new capital adequacy standards for Total Risk Based Capital, Tier 1 Risk Based Capital, Common Equity Tier One Capital, and Leverage Capital. These regulatory standards became effective January 1, 2015 and require banks to maintain a Tier 1 Leverage ratio of at least 4%, a Common Equity Tier One ratio of at least 4.5%, a Tier One Risk Based Capital ratio of at least 6%, and a Total Risk Based Capital ratio of at least 8% to be adequately capitalized. The regulatory agencies consider a bank to be “well capitalized” if its Tier 1 Leverage ratio is at least 5%, its Common Equity Tier One ratio is at least 6.5%, its Tier One Risk Based Capital ratio is at least 8%, and its Total Risk Based Capital ratio is at least 10%, and the Bank is not subject to any written agreements or order issued by the FDIC pursuant to Section 8 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act.

The following table summarizes the capital ratios of the Corporation:

	December 31, 2015		December 31, 2014		Minimum to be Well Capitalized
Tier 1 Leverage Ratio		11.04%		9.68%		5%
Common Equity Tier 1 Capital		18.53%		n/a		6.5%
Tier 1 Risk based Capital		18.53%		15.96%		8%
Total Risk Based Capital		19.79%		17.22%		10%

At December 31, 2014 and 2015, the Bank exceeded the capital ratio requirements and was considered “Well Capitalized”. The new capital rule includes a transition schedule to phase in a capital conservation buffer that adds 0.625% to each of the above minimum ratios for 2016. We expect the Bank to continue to meet the requirements to be considered “Well Capitalized” in 2016.

The Bank’s Tier 1 Leverage Capital ratio increased from 9.55% at December 31, 2014 to 10.91% at December 31, 2015. The Bank’s Total Risk Based Capital ratio increased from 17.01% at December 31, 2014 to 19.59% at December 31, 2015.

For a variety of reasons, including volatile economic conditions, fluctuating interest rates, and large amounts of local municipal deposits, we have attempted, for the last several years, to maintain a liquid investment position. The percentage of securities held as Available for Sale was 92.3% as of December 31, 2015 and 93.6% as of December 31, 2014. The percentage of securities that mature within five years was 35.0% as of December 31, 2015 and 28.0% as of December 31, 2014. The following table presents the scheduled maturities for each of the investment categories, and the average yield on the amounts maturing. The yields presented for the Obligations of States and Political Subdivisions are not tax equivalent yields. The interest income on a portion of these securities is exempt from federal income tax. The Corporation’s statutory federal income tax rate was thirty-four percent in 2015.

Our loan policies also reflect our awareness of the need for liquidity. We have short average terms for most of our loan portfolios, in particular real estate mortgages, the majority of which are normally written for five years or less. The following table shows the maturities or repricing opportunities (whichever is earlier) for the Bank’s interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities at December 31, 2015. The repricing assumptions shown are consistent with those established by the Bank’s Asset and Liability Management Committee (ALCO). Savings accounts and interest bearing demand deposit accounts are non-maturing, variable rate deposits, which may reprice as often as daily, but are not included in the zero to six month category because in actual practice, these deposits are only repriced if there is a large change in market interest rates. The effect of including these accounts in the zero to six-month category is depicted in a subsequent table. Money Market deposits are also non-maturing, variable rate deposits; however, these accounts are included in the zero to six-month category because they may get repriced following smaller changes in market rates.

For 2016, we expect the FOMC to keep the fed funds target rate between 0.25% and 0.50% for the first six months before raising it to 0.75%. We also expect the uncertainty about global economic and political issues will keep demand for US Treasury securities high, and longer term rates in the current range throughout the year. Other factors in the economic environment, such as unemployment rates, real estate values, and the inflation rate, will remain relatively stable, and opportunities for lending activity will continue to increase in 2016. In the near term, our focus will be on controlling our asset quality, pursuing new lending opportunities, and improving our earnings by improving our net interest income and non-interest income and controlling our non-interest expenses. As a result, we expect a small improvement in our net interest margin and our net interest income in 2016.

In 2015 our provision for loan losses was significantly less than in 2014, as we reversed more of our provision to achieve the required decrease in the amount of Allowance for Loan Losses. We believe that our Allowance for Loan Losses provides adequate coverage for the losses in our portfolio. We expect asset quality to continue to improve in 2016 and we expect the historical loss rates used to calculate the required allowance to continue to decrease, so we expect that we will be able to maintain the adequacy of the allowance while recording a provision for loan losses expense that is less than our net charge offs in 2016. We also expect the net charge offs to be higher in 2016 following the net recovery recorded in 2015.

We anticipate that non interest income will be little changed in 2016 as increases in wealth management income and service charges will be offset by lower mortgage loan origination fees and gains on sales of investment securities compared to 2015. We expect non-interest expenses to decrease in 2016 compared to 2015 as lower salaries, benefits, occupancy expenses, OREO holding costs and FDIC insurance assessments will exceed the increases in other expenses.

The Troubled Debt Restructurings reported in the table above are performing in accordance with the terms of the restructuring. Troubled Debt Restructurings that are not performing are included in the Nonaccrual amounts reported above. The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the credit is well secured and in the process of collection. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged off at an earlier date if principal or interest is considered doubtful. Interest paid on nonaccrual loans is applied to the principal balance outstanding, so no interest income was recognized on nonaccrual loans in 2015. If the nonaccrual loans outstanding as of December 31, 2015 had been current in accordance with their original terms, the Bank would have recorded $550,000 in gross interest income on those loans during 2015.

Each period the provision for loan losses in the statement of operations results from the combination of an estimate by Management of loan losses that occurred during the current period and the ongoing adjustment of prior estimates of losses.

To serve as a basis for making this provision, the Bank maintains an extensive credit risk monitoring process that considers several factors including: current economic conditions affecting the Bank’s customers, the payment performance of individual loans and pools of homogeneous loans, portfolio seasoning, changes in collateral values, and detailed reviews of specific loan relationships. For loans deemed to be impaired due to an expectation that all contractual payments will probably not be received, impairment is measured by comparing the Bank’s recorded investment in the loan to the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the fair value of the collateral, or the loan’s observable market price. Year-end nonperforming assets, which include nonaccrual loans, loans ninety days or more past due, renegotiated debt, nonaccrual securities, and other real estate owned, decreased $11.6 million, or 28.0%, from 2014 to 2015. Nonperforming assets as a percent of total assets at year-end decreased from 3.3% in 2014 to 2.2% in 2015. The Allowance for Loan Losses as a percent of nonperforming loans at year-end increased from 36.7% in 2014 to 40.0% in 2015.

37

The provision for loan losses increases the allowance for loan losses, a valuation account which appears on the consolidated statements of condition. As the specific customer and amount of a loan loss is confirmed by gathering additional information, taking collateral in full or partial settlement of the loan, bankruptcy of the borrower, etc., the loan is charged off, reducing the allowance for loan losses. If, subsequent to a charge off, the Bank is able to collect additional amounts from the customer or sell collateral worth more than earlier estimated, a recovery is recorded.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk for the Bank, as is typical for most banks, consists mainly of interest rate risk and market price risk. The Bank’s earnings and the economic value of its equity are exposed to interest rate risk and market price risk, and monitoring this risk is the responsibility of the Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO) of the Bank, which committee monitors such risk on a monthly basis.

The Bank faces market risk to the extent that the fair values of its financial instruments are affected by changes in interest rates. The Bank does not face market risk due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, or equity prices. The asset and liability management process of the Bank seeks to monitor and manage the amount of interest rate risk. This is accomplished by analyzing the differences in repricing opportunities for assets and liabilities (gap analysis, as shown in Item 7), by simulating operating results under varying interest rate scenarios, and by estimating the change in the net present value of the Bank’s assets and liabilities due to interest rate changes.

Each month, ALCO, which includes the senior management of the Bank, estimates the effect of interest rate changes on the projected net interest income of the Bank. The sensitivity of the Bank’s net interest income to changes in interest rates is measured by using a computer based simulation model to estimate the impact on earnings of immediate and parallel shifts in interest rates. In the current low interest rate environment, increases of 100, 200, 300, and 400 basis points and decreases of 100 and 200 basis points are analyzed. In 2014 the analysis utilized gradual increases or decreases of 100, 200, and 300 basis points in the prime rate. The net interest income projections are compared to a base case projection, which assumes no changes in interest rates. The table below summarizes the net interest income sensitivity as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.

The Bank’s ALCO has established limits in the acceptable amount of interest rate risk, as measured by the change in the Bank’s projected net interest income, in its policy. At December 31, 2015, the estimated variability of the net interest income under all rate scenarios was within the policy guidelines. Throughout 2015, the estimated variability of the net interest income was within the Bank’s established policy limits in the rate scenarios analyzed. The policy limits were changed in 2015 because the methodology of the analysis changed from utilizing gradual interest rate changes to immediate interest rate changes.

The ALCO also monitors interest rate risk by estimating the effect of changes in interest rates on the economic value of the Bank’s equity each month. The actual economic value of the Bank’s equity is first determined by subtracting the fair value of the Bank’s liabilities from the fair value of the Bank’s assets. The fair values are determined in accordance with Fair Value Measurement. The Bank estimates the interest rate risk by calculating the effect of market interest rate shocks on the economic value of its equity. For this analysis, the Bank assumes immediate increases of 100, 200, 300, and 400 basis points and decreases of 100 and 200 basis points in the prime lending rate. The discount rates used to determine the present values of the loans and deposits, as well as the prepayment rates for the loans, are based on Management’s expectations of the effect of the rate shock on the market for loans and deposits. The table below summarizes the amount of interest rate risk to the fair value of the Bank’s assets and liabilities and to the economic value of the Bank’s equity.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

MBT Financial Corp. and Subsidiaries

Monroe, Michigan

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of MBT Financial Corp. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2015. We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and an opinion on the company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

41

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of MBT Financial Corp. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2015 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Also in our opinion, MBT Financial Corp. and Subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MBT Financial Corp. (the “Corporation”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Monroe Bank & Trust (the “Bank”). The Bank includes the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiary, MB&T Financial Services, Inc. The Bank operates fourteen banking offices in Monroe County, Michigan, six banking offices in Wayne County, Michigan, and a Loan and Wealth Management office in Lenawee County, Michigan. The Bank’s primary source of revenue is from providing loans to customers, who are predominantly small and middle-market businesses and middle-income individuals. The Corporation’s sole business segment is community banking.

The accounting and reporting policies of the Bank conform to practice within the banking industry and are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the near term are the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the fair value of investment securities, the valuation of other real estate owned, and the deferred tax asset.

The significant accounting policies are as follows:

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its subsidiary. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

SIGNIFICANT GROUP CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

Most of the Corporation's activities are with customers located within southeast Michigan. Notes 3 and 4 discuss the types of securities and lending that the Corporation engages in. The Corporation does not have any significant concentrations in any one industry or to any one customer.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Investment securities that are classified as “held to maturity” are stated at cost, and adjusted for accumulated amortization of premium and accretion of discount. The Bank has the intention and, in Management’s opinion, the ability to hold these investment securities until maturity. Investment securities that are classified as “available for sale” are stated at estimated market value, with the related unrealized gains and losses reported as an amount, net of taxes, as a component of stockholders’ equity. The market value of securities is based on quoted market prices. For securities that do not have readily available market values, estimated market values are calculated based on the market values of comparable securities.

Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities. Declines in the fair value of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses, management considers the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the intent and ability of the Corporation to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the specific identification method.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. When evaluating investment securities consideration is given to the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions and whether the Company has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, the Company may consider whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, or U.S. Government sponsored enterprises, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of reviews of the issuer’s financial condition. The assessment of whether an other-than-temporary decline exists involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and is based on the information available to management at a point in time.

When OTTI occurs, the amount of the OTTI recognized in earnings depends on whether an entity intends to sell the security or it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If an entity intends to sell or it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the OTTI shall be recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the investment’s amortized cost basis and its fair value at the balance sheet date. The previous amortized cost basis less the OTTI recognized in earnings becomes the new amortized cost basis of the investment. If a security is determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired, but the entity does not intend to sell the security, only the credit portion of the estimated loss is recognized in earnings, with the other portion of the loss recognized in other comprehensive income.

47

LOANS

The Bank grants mortgage, commercial, and consumer loans to customers. Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield using the interest method.

The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the credit is well secured and in the process of collection. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged off at an earlier date if principal or interest is considered doubtful.

All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash basis or cost recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK STOCK

The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (FHLBI). Members are required to own a certain amount of stock based on the level of borrowings and other factors. Stock in the FHLBI is recorded at redemption value which approximates fair value. The Company periodically evaluates the FHLBI stock for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both cash and stock dividends are reported as income.

LOANS HELD FOR SALE

Loans held for sale consist of fixed rate residential mortgage loans with maturities of 15 to 30 years. Such loans are recorded at the lower of aggregate cost or estimated fair value.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management's periodic review of the collectibility of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as non-accrual or renegotiated. For such loans that are also classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience, adjusted for qualitative factors.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower's prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either 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.

Troubled debt restructuring of loans is undertaken to improve the likelihood that the loan will be repaid in full under the modified terms in accordance with a reasonable repayment schedule. All modified loans are evaluated to determine whether the loans should be reported as Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDR). A loan is a TDR when the Bank, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower by modifying a loan. To make this determination, the Bank must determine whether (a) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and (b) the Bank granted the borrower a concession. This determination requires consideration of all of the facts and circumstances surrounding the modification. An overall general decline in the economy or some deterioration in a borrower’s financial condition does not automatically mean the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties.

48

Large groups of homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Corporation does not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures.

FORECLOSED ASSETS (INCLUDES OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED)

Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at the lower of fair value less costs to sell or the loan carrying amount at the date of the foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by Management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Expenses from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in net expenses from foreclosed assets.

BANK PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT

Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed generally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Upon the sale or other disposition of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are retired and the resulting gain or loss is recognized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, while renewals and improvements are capitalized. Software costs related to externally developed systems are capitalized at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life.

BANK OWNED LIFE INSURANCE

Bank owned life insurance policies are stated at the current cash surrender value of the policy, or the policy death proceeds less any obligation to provide a death benefit to an insured’s beneficiaries if that value is less than the cash surrender value. Increases in the asset value are recorded as earnings in other income.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Accounting principles generally require that revenue, expenses, gains, and losses be included in net income. Certain changes in assets and liabilities, however, such as unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale, and amounts recognized related to postretirement benefit plans (gains and losses, prior service costs, and transition assets or obligations), are reported as a direct adjustment to the equity section of the balance sheet. Such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income.

The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss and related tax effects are as follows:

Dollars in thousands	2015			2014			2013
Net unrealized gains (losses) on securities available for sale	$	(2,338	)	$	(1,722	)	$	(14,852	)
Post retirement benefit obligations		(1,226	)		(2,267	)		(1,624	)
Tax effect		1,212			1,356			5,603
Accumulated other comprehensive loss	$	(2,352	)	$	(2,633	)	$	(10,873	)

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

For the purpose of the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and balances due from banks and federal funds sold which mature within 90 days.

INCOME TAXES

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the various temporary differences between the book and tax bases of the various balance sheet assets and liabilities and gives current recognition to changes in tax rates and laws.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Corporation has several stock based compensation plans (Note 15). The total amount of compensation is measured at the fair value of the awards when granted, and this cost is expensed over the required service period, which is normally the vesting period of the options.

OFF BALANCE SHEET INSTRUMENTS

In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation has entered into commitments to extend credit, including commitments under credit card arrangements, commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded. Additional information regarding Off Balance Sheet Instruments is included in Note 17 in these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

49

FAIR VALUE

The Corporation measures or monitors many of its assets and liabilities on a fair value basis. Fair value is used on a recurring basis for assets and liabilities that are elected to be accounted for under the Fair Value Option as well as for certain assets and liabilities in which fair value is the primary basis of accounting. Examples of these include derivative instruments and available for sale securities. Additionally, fair value is used on a non-recurring basis to evaluate assets or liabilities for impairment or for disclosure purposes. Examples of these non-recurring uses of fair value include certain loans held for sale accounted for on a lower of cost or market basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, the Corporation uses various valuation techniques and assumptions when estimating fair value.

The Corporation applied the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1– inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. The Corporation’s mutual fund investments where quoted prices are available in an active market generally are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Level 2 – Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. The Corporation’s borrowed funds and investments in U.S. government agency securities, government sponsored mortgage backed securities, and obligations of states and political subdivisions are generally classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Fair values for these instruments are estimated using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flows.

Level 3 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Private equity investments and certain municipal debt obligations are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Fair values are initially valued based on transaction price and are adjusted to reflect exit values.

When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at and/or marked to fair value, the Corporation considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. When possible, the Corporation looks to active and observable markets to price identical assets or liabilities. When identical assets and liabilities are not traded in active markets, the Corporation looks to market observable data for similar assets or liabilities. Nevertheless, certain assets and liabilities are not actively traded in observable markets and the Corporation must use alternative valuation techniques to derive a fair value measurement.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date. The ASU adopts a standardized approach for revenue recognition and was a joint effort with the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The new revenue recognition standard is based on a core principle of recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU does not apply to financial instruments. The ASU is effective for public entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that period (therefore, for the year ending December 31, 2018 for the Corporation). Early adoption is permitted only as of annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that period. Management is currently assessing the impact to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standard Update (ASU) No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities related to the recognition and measurement of financial instruments. The most significant change included in the ASU is the requirement for certain equity investments (excluding investments that are consolidated or accounted for under the equity method) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Alternatively, equity investments without readily determinable fair values can be recorded at cost, and periodically evaluated for impairment using a qualitative assessment. If the qualitative assessment indicates the investment is impaired, it is required to be measured at fair value. The ASU also eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently assessing the impact to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

(2) Cash and Due from Banks

The Bank is required by regulatory agencies to maintain legal reserve requirements based on the level of balances in deposit categories. Cash balances restricted from usage due to these requirements were $4,909,000 and $4,374,000 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Cash and due from banks includes uninsured deposits held at correspondent banks of $6,596,000 and $6,357,000 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

The investment securities portfolio is evaluated for impairment throughout the year. Impairment is recorded against individual securities, unless the decrease in fair value is attributable to interest rates or the lack of an active market, and management determines that the Company has the intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for an anticipated recovery in the market value. The fair values of investments with an amortized cost in excess of their fair values at December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are as follows (000s omitted):

The amount of investment securities issued by government agencies, states, and political subdivisions with unrealized losses and the amount of unrealized losses on those investment securities are primarily the result of market interest rates and not the result of the credit quality of the issuers of the securities. The company has the ability and intent to hold these securities until recovery, which may be until maturity. The fair value of these securities is expected to recover as the securities approach maturity. As of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were 146 and 116 securities in an unrealized loss position, respectively.

Investment securities carried at $118,823,000 and $111,151,000 were pledged or set aside to secure borrowings, public and trust deposits, and for other purposes required by law at December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

At December 31, 2015, Obligations of U. S. Government Agencies included securities issued by the Federal Home Loan Banks with an estimated market value of $184,467,000 and securities issued by the Federal Farm Credit Banks with an estimated market value of $184,594,000. At December 31, 2015, Mortgage Backed Securities issued by U. S. Government Agencies included securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association with an estimated market value of $103,252,000. At December 31, 2014, Obligations of U. S. Government Agencies included securities issued by the Federal Home Loan Banks with an estimated market value of $171,629,000 and securities issued by the Federal Farm Credit Banks with an estimated market value of $170,419,000. At December 31, 2014, Mortgage Backed Securities issued by U. S. Government Agencies included securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association with an estimated market value of $105,406,000.

For the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, proceeds from sales of securities amounted to $39,238,000, $122,579,000, and $81,875,000, respectively. Gross realized gains amounted to $653,000, $2,782,000, and $823,000, respectively. Gross realized losses amounted to $255,000, $3,436,000, and $399,000, respectively. The tax provision (benefit) applicable to these net realized gains and losses amounted to $135,000, ($222,000), and $144,000, respectively.

The sales of securities available for sale resulted in a reclassifications of $398,000 ($263,000 net of tax) from accumulated other comprehensive income to net gain on sales of securities in the consolidated statements of operations in the year ended December 31, 2015. The sales of securities available for sale resulted in a reclassifications of $654,000 ($432,000 net of tax) from accumulated other comprehensive loss to net loss on sales of securities in the consolidated statements of operations in the years ended December 31, 2014.

(4) Loans

 Loan balances outstanding as of December 31 consist of the following (000s omitted):

	2015		2014
Residential real estate loans	$	213,989	$	223,701
Commercial and Construction real estate loans		259,139		262,395
Agriculture and agricultural real estate loans		19,243		16,700
Commercial and industrial loans		84,438		62,761
Loans to individuals for household, family, and other personal expenditures		40,499		44,775
Total loans, gross	$	617,308	$	610,332
Less: Allowance for loan losses		10,896		13,208
	$	606,412	$	597,124

53

Included in Loans are loans to certain officers, directors, and companies in which such officers and directors have 10 percent or more beneficial ownership in the aggregate amount of $4,058,000 and $2,813,000 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. In 2015, new loans and other additions amounted to $1,546,000, and repayments and other reductions amounted to $301,000. In 2014, new loans and other additions amounted to $86,000, and repayments and other reductions amounted to $709,000. In Management’s judgment, these loans were made on substantially the same terms and conditions as those made to other borrowers, and do not represent more than the normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features.

No loans were pledged to secure debt or for any other purposes as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

(5) Allowance For Loan Losses and Credit Quality of Loans

The Company separates its loan portfolio into segments to perform the calculation and analysis of the allowance for loan losses. The six segments analyzed are Agriculture and Agricultural Real Estate, Commercial, Commercial Real Estate, Construction Real Estate, Residential Real Estate, and Consumer and Other. The Agriculture and Agricultural Real Estate segment includes all loans to finance agricultural production and all loans secured by agricultural real estate. This segment does not include loans to finance agriculture that are secured by residential real estate, which are included in the Residential Real Estate segment. The Commercial segment includes loans to finance commercial and industrial businesses that are not secured by real estate. The Commercial Real Estate segment includes loans secured by non-farm, non-residential real estate. The Construction Real Estate segment includes loans to finance construction and land development. This includes residential and commercial construction and land development. The Residential Real Estate segment includes all loans, other than construction loans, that are secured by single family and multi-family residential real estate properties. The Consumer and Other segment includes all loans not included in any other segment. These are primarily loans to consumers for household, family, and other personal expenditures, such as autos, boats, and recreational vehicles.

Each period the provision for loan losses in the statement of operations results from the combination of an estimate by Management of loan losses that occurred during the current period and the ongoing adjustment of prior estimates of losses occurring in prior periods.

The provision for loan losses increases the allowance for loan losses, a valuation account which appears on the consolidated balance sheets. As the specific customer and amount of a loan loss is confirmed by gathering additional information, taking collateral in full or partial settlement of the loan, bankruptcy of the borrower, etc., the loan is charged off, reducing the allowance for loan losses. If, subsequent to a charge off, the Bank is able to collect additional amounts from the customer or sell collateral worth more than earlier estimated, a recovery is recorded.

To serve as a basis for making this provision, the Bank maintains an extensive credit risk monitoring process that considers several factors including: current economic conditions affecting the Bank’s customers, the payment performance of individual loans and pools of homogeneous loans, portfolio seasoning, changes in collateral values, and detailed reviews of specific loan relationships.

The Company utilizes an internal loan grading system to assign a risk grade to commercial loans and each credit relationship with more than $250,000 of aggregate credit exposure. The number of categories was increased in 2015 to allow differentiation between credits within the categories. Ratings for previous periods were not revised to utilize these new categories. Grades 10 through 45 are considered “pass” credits and grades 50 through 95 are considered “watch” credits and are subject to greater scrutiny. Loans with grades 60 and higher are considered substandard and most are evaluated for impairment. A description of the general characteristics of each grade is as follows:

● Grades 10 and 15 – Excellent – Loans secured by marketable collateral, with adequate margin, or supported by strong financial statements. Probability of serious financial deterioration is unlikely. Possess a sound repayment source and a secondary source. This classification will also include all loans secured by certificates of deposit or cash equivalents.

● Grades 20 and 25 – Satisfactory – Loans that have less than average risk and clearly demonstrate adequate debt service coverage. These loans may have some vulnerability, but are sufficiently strong to have minimal deterioration if adverse factors are encountered, and are expected to be fully collectable.

● Grades 30 and 35 – Average – Loans that have a reasonable amount of risk and may exhibit vulnerability to deterioration if adverse factors are encountered. These loans should demonstrate adequate debt service coverage but warrant a higher level of monitoring to ensure that weaknesses do not advance.

● Grades 40 and 45 – Pass/Watch – Loans that are considered “pass credits” yet appear on the “watch list”. Credit deficiency or potential weakness may include a lack of current or complete financial information. The level of risk is considered acceptable so long as the loan is given additional management supervision.

55

● Grades 50 and 55 – Watch – Loans that possess some credit deficiency or potential weakness that if not corrected, could increase risk in the future. The source of loan repayment is sufficient but may be considered inadequate by the Bank’s standards.

● Grades 60 and 65 – Substandard – Loans that exhibit one or more of the following characteristics: (1) uncertainty of repayment from primary source and financial deterioration currently underway; (2) inadequate current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor; (3) reliance on secondary source of repayment such as collateral liquidation or guarantees; (4) distinct possibility the Bank will sustain loss if deficiencies are not corrected; (5) unusual courses of action are needed to maintain probability of repayment; (6) insufficient cash flow to repay principal but continuing to pay interest; (7) the Bank is subordinated or unsecured due to flaws in documentation; (8) loans are restructured or are on nonaccrual status due to concessions to the borrower when compared to normal terms; (9) the Bank is contemplating foreclosure or legal action due to deterioration in the loan; or (10) there is deterioration in conditions and the borrower is highly vulnerable to these conditions.

● Grades 70 and 75 – Doubtful – Loans that exhibit one or more of the following characteristics: (1) loans with the weaknesses of Substandard loans and collection or liquidation is not probable to result in payment in full; (2) the primary source of repayment is gone and the quality of the secondary source is doubtful; or (3) the possibility of loss is high, but important pending factors may strengthen the loan.

● Grades 80-95 - Loss – Loans are considered uncollectible and of such little value that carrying them on the Bank’s financial statements is not feasible.

The assessment of compensating factors may result in a rating plus or minus one grade from those listed above. These factors include, but are not limited to collateral, guarantors, environmental conditions, history, plan/projection reasonableness, quality of information, and payment delinquency.

Loans are considered past due when contractually required payment of interest or principal has not been received. The amount classified as past due is the entire principal balance outstanding of the loan, not just the amount of payments that are past due.

Loans are placed on non-accrual status when, in the opinion of Management, the collection of additional interest is doubtful. Loans are automatically placed on non-accrual status upon becoming ninety days past due, however, loans may be placed on non-accrual status regardless of whether or not they are past due. All cash received on non-accrual loans is applied to the principal balance. Loans are considered for return to accrual status on an individual basis when all principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

For loans deemed to be impaired due to an expectation that all contractual payments will probably not be received, impairment is measured by comparing the Bank’s recorded investment in the loan to the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the fair value of the collateral, or the loan’s observable market price.

The Bank may agree to modify the terms of a loan in order to improve the Bank’s ability to collect amounts due. These modifications may include reduction of the interest rate, extension of the loan term, or in some cases, reduction of the principal balance. Modifications that are performed due to the debtor’s financial difficulties are considered Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs).

Loans that were classified as TDRs during the years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are as follows (000s omitted from dollar amounts):

	December 31, 2015						December 31, 2014

A modification of a loan constitutes a TDR when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the modification constitutes a concession. The Corporation offers various types of concessions when modifying a loan, however, forgiveness of principal is rarely granted. Commercial loans modified in a TDR often involve temporary interest-only payments, term extensions, and converting revolving credit lines to term loans. Additional collateral, a co-borrower, or a guarantor may be requested. Loans modified in a TDR are typically already on nonaccrual status and partial charge-offs have in some cases already been taken against the outstanding loan balance. As a result, loans modified in a TDR for the Corporation may have the financial effect of increasing the specific allowance associated with the loan. The allowance for impaired loans that have been modified in a TDR is measured based on the estimated fair value of the collateral, less any selling costs, if the loan is collateral dependent or on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate. Management exercises significant judgment in developing these estimates.

The regulatory guidance requires loans to be accounted for as collateral-dependent loans when borrowers have filed Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the debt has been discharged and the borrower has not reaffirmed the debt, regardless of the delinquency status of the loan. The filing of bankruptcy by the borrower is evidence of financial difficulty and the discharge of the obligation by the bankruptcy court is deemed to be a concession granted to the borrower.

At December 31, 2015 the Corporation had no commitments to lend additional funds to the related debtors whose terms have been modified in a TDR.

(8) Federal Home Loan Bank Advances and Repurchase Agreements

The Bank did not have any advances outstanding from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.

The Bank maintains an overdraft line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis. The amount outstanding on the line of credit was $0 as of December 31, 2015 and 2014. The amount of credit available was $20,000,000 as of December 31, 2015 and 2014. The interest rate on the line of credit is equal to the variable advance rate and is only charged on amounts advanced. The variable advance rate was 0.58% on December 31, 2015 and 0.50% on December 31, 2014. The line of credit was subject to the provisions and conditions of the credit policy of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis.

As of December 31, 2015 investment securities with a carrying value of $26,437,000 were pledged to secure the Federal Home Loan Bank line of credit. As of December 31, 2014 investment securities with a carrying value of $26,410,000 were pledged to secure the Federal Home Loan Bank line of credit.

(9) Retirement Plans and Postretirement Benefit Plans

In 2000, the Bank implemented a retirement plan that included both a money purchase pension plan, as well as a voluntary profit sharing 401(k) plan for all employees who meet certain age and length of service eligibility requirements. In 2002, the Bank amended its retirement plan to freeze the money purchase plan and retain the 401(k) plan. To ensure that the plan meets the Safe Harbor provisions of the applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code, the Bank contributes an amount equal to 4% of the employee’s base salary to the 401(k) plan for all eligible employees who contribute at least 5% of their salary. In addition, an employee may contribute from 1 to 75 percent of his or her base salary, up to a maximum of $24,000 in 2015. In 2015, 2014, and 2013 the Bank made a matching contribution of 100% on the first 3% of employee deferrals and 50% on the next 2% of deferrals. Depending on the Bank’s profitability, an additional profit sharing contribution may be made by the Bank to the 401(k) plan. There were no profit sharing contributions in 2015, 2014, and 2013. The total retirement plan expense was $558,000, for the year ended December 31, 2015, $558,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014, and $515,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013.

The Bank has a postretirement benefit plan that generally provides for the continuation of medical premium payments for all employees hired before January 1, 2007 who retire from the Bank at age 55 or older, upon meeting certain length of service eligibility requirements. The Bank does not fund its postretirement benefit obligation. Rather, payments are made as costs are incurred by covered retirees. The amount of benefits paid under the postretirement benefit plan was $144,000 in 2015, $201,000 in 2014, and $206,000 in 2013. The amount of insurance premium paid by the Bank for retirees is capped at 200% of the cost of the premium as of December 31, 1992.

A reconciliation of the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation (“APBO”) to the amounts recorded in the consolidated balance sheets in Interest Payable and Other Liabilities at December 31 is as follows (000s omitted):

	2015			2014
APBO	$	3,406		$	3,865
Unrecognized net transition obligation		-			-
Unrecognized prior service costs		-			-
Unrecognized net gain (loss)		(67	)		(780	)
Accrued benefit cost at fiscal year end	$	3,339		$	3,085

Components of the Bank’s postretirement benefit expense were as follows:

	2015		2014		2013
Service cost	$	173	$	135	$	134
Interest cost		143		144		106
Prior service costs		-		2		4
Amortization of gains		27		1		-
Net postretirement benefit expense	$	343	$	282	$	244

The APBO as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 was calculated using assumed discount rates of 4.25% and 3.75%, respectively. Based on the provisions of the plan, the Bank’s expense is capped at 200% of the 1992 expense, with all expenses above the cap incurred by the retiree. The expense reached the cap in 2004, and accordingly the impact of an increase in health care costs on the APBO was not calculated.

The Bank Owned Life Insurance policies fund a Death Benefit Only (DBO) obligation that the Bank has with 6 of its active directors, 5 retired directors, 11 active executives, and 11 retired executives. The DBO plan, which replaced previous split dollar agreements, provides a taxable death benefit. The benefit for directors is grossed up to provide a net benefit to each director’s beneficiaries based on that director’s length of service on the board. The directors’ net death benefits are $500,000 for director service of less than 3 years, $600,000 for service up to 5 years, $750,000 for service up to 10 years, and $1,000,000 for director service of 10 years or more. The active directors who participate in the plan have all waived the postretirement benefit. The executives’ beneficiaries will receive a grossed up benefit that will provide a net benefit equal to two times the executive’s base salary if death occurs during employment and a postretirement benefit equal to the executive’s final annual salary rate at the time of retirement if death occurs after retirement.

(11) Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Certain of the Bank’s assets and liabilities are financial instruments that have fair values that differ from their carrying values in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. These fair values, along with the methods and assumptions used to estimate such fair values, are discussed below. The fair values of all financial instruments not discussed below are estimated to be equal to their carrying amounts as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents approximate fair values.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Fair value for the Bank’s investment securities was determined using the market value in active markets, where available. When not available, fair values are estimated using the fair value hierarchy. In the fair value hierarchy, Level 2 fair values are determined using observable inputs other than Level 1 market prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets. Level 3 values are determined using unobservable inputs, such as discounted cash flow projections, for securities with no market activity. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2015, held to maturity investments in obligations of states and political subdivisions were classified as Level 2 fair values. Due to the lack of market data, the outstanding balance of certain of these investments was transferred from Level 2 to Level 3 as of December 31, 2015. These estimated market values are disclosed in Note 3 and the required fair value disclosures are in Note 19. The carrying value of Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis stock approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the issuer.

LOANS AND LOANS HELD FOR SALE

Loans Held for Sale consists of fixed rate mortgage loans originated by the Bank. The fair value of Loans Held for Sale is the estimated value the Bank will receive upon sale of the loan. The fair value of all other loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows associated with the loans, using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.

DEPOSIT LIABILITIES

The fair values for demand deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e. the carrying amounts). The carrying amounts of variable rate certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting date. Fair values of fixed rate, fixed maturity, certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the related cash flows using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

64

SECURITIES SOLD UNDER REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS

The estimated fair value of the Securities Sold under Repurchase Agreements is estimated by discounting the related cash flows using the rates currently available for similarly structured borrowings with similar maturities.

ACCRUED INTEREST

The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.

OFF-BALANCE-SHEET FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair values of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written are estimated using the fees currently charged to engage into similar agreements. The fair values of these instruments are not significant.

FAIR VALUES

The carrying amounts and approximate fair values as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are as follows (000s omitted):

(12) Federal Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be reversed. The Corporation and the Bank file a consolidated Federal income tax return.

The current and deferred components of the provision for Federal income taxes were as follows (000s omitted):

	2015			2014		2013
Current	$	(660	)	$	69	$	42
Deferred		5,680			2,503		1,726
Valuation allowance reversal		-			-		(19,881	)
Tax expense (benefit)	$	5,020		$	2,572	$	(18,113	)

The effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate applicable to corporations as a result of permanent differences between accounting and taxable income as follows:

	2015			2014			2013
Statutory rate		34.0	%		34.0	%		34.0	%
Municipal interest income		(2.1	)		(3.9	)		(5.4	)
Other, net		(2.5	)		(4.1	)		(4.8	)
Valuation allowance		-			-			(267.8	)
Effective tax rate		29.4	%		26.0	%		(244.0	)%

In accordance with ASC 740, the Company is required to establish a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets when it is “more likely than not” that a portion or the entire deferred tax asset will not be realized. The evaluation requires significant judgment and extensive analysis of all available positive and negative evidence, the forecast of future income, applicable tax planning strategies, and assessments of current and future economic and business conditions.

66

During 2009, the Company established a deferred tax valuation allowance of $13.9 million after evaluating all positive and negative evidence. The Company determined that it was more likely than not that it would not be able to utilize its entire deferred tax asset of $17.0 million. The expense for recording the valuation allowance was a non cash item, and recording the expense does not imply that the Company owes additional taxes. As business and economic conditions changed, the Company reevaluated the criteria related to the recognition of deferred tax assets, and during 2010, The Company increased its valuation allowance to $20.9 million, which equaled 100% of the deferred tax asset. After its review of the relevant data in 2011, the Company decided to continue to maintain its valuation allowance at 100% of the deferred tax asset of $24.2 million.

In December 2012, the Company again evaluated the positive and negative evidence regarding its expected utilization of its deferred tax asset. Positive evidence included improving local and regional economic conditions, six consecutive quarterly profits, consistent improvement in asset quality, reduction in credit related expenses, and projections for continued improvements in earnings for the foreseeable future. Negative evidence included the large amount of net operating loss carry forwards that the Company had accumulated, persistent concern about the strength of the economic recovery, and still elevated problem asset levels at the Company. The Company determined that, as of December 31, 2012, it was more likely than not that the Company would be able to utilize a portion of its deferred tax asset, but it was not more likely than not that all of the deferred tax asset would be utilized. Based on its projection of the amount of deferred tax asset that it expected to utilize in the future, the Company concluded to reduce the valuation allowance by $5.0 million. The reduction in the valuation allowance was recorded by recognizing a benefit to federal income tax expense.

In 2013, the Company’s evaluation of the positive and negative evidence regarding its expected utilization of its deferred tax asset indicated that that it was more likely than not that the Company would utilize its entire deferred tax asset. The positive evidence, consisting of nine consecutive profitable quarters and projections for future taxable earnings exceeded the negative evidence, which was primarily the prior net operating losses experienced. As a result, the Company eliminated the remaining $19.9 million valuation allowance in 2013 by recording a benefit to federal income tax expense.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into certain transactions that have tax consequences. From time to time, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) questions and/or challenges the tax positions taken by the Company with respect to those transactions. The Company believes that its tax returns were filed based upon applicable statutes, regulations, and case law in effect at the time of the transactions. The IRS, an administrative authority of a court, if presented with the transactions could disagree with the Company’s interpretation of the tax law.

The Company is currently under an audit of its tax returns filed for the 2004, 2005, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 tax years. The Company agreed to a settlement with the IRS in the fourth quarter of 2015, and that settlement must now be approved by Congress’ Joint Committee on Taxation. The Company remitted the taxes and estimated interest required by the settlement and, based on current knowledge, the Company believes that the audit will be resolved without incurring any additional tax or interest expense. The settlement resulted in the Company recording a reduction of $955,000 in the liability previously recorded.

The components of the net deferred Federal income tax asset (included in Interest Receivable and Other Assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets) at December 31 are as follows (000s omitted):

	2015			2014
Deferred Federal income tax assets:

The Corporation has net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $16.0 million that are available to reduce future taxable income through the year ending December 31, 2032.

(13) Regulatory Capital Requirements

The Corporation and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory (and possibly additional discretionary) actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Corporation and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Corporation and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the accompanying tables) of Total and Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to average assets.

In 2013, the federal banking agencies issued revisions to the existing capital rules to incorporate certain changes to the Basel capital framework, including Basel III and other elements. The intent is to strengthen the definition of regulatory capital, increase risk based capital requirements, and make selected changes to the calculation of risk weighted assets. Beginning January 1, 2015, banks transitioned to the new rules and reported results with the first Call Report of 2015. As part of the new rules there are several provisions affecting the Company, such as implementation of a new common equity tier 1 ratio, the start of a capital conservation buffer, and increased prompt corrective action capital adequacy thresholds.

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Bank’s capital ratios exceeded the required minimums to be considered well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum Total risk based, Tier 1 risk based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the tables, as well as meeting other requirements specified by the federal banking regulators, including not being subject to any written agreement or order issued by the FDIC pursuant to section 8 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act.

The Bank is considered to be “Well Capitalized” as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and there are no conditions or events since December 31, 2015 that Management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

68

The Corporation’s and Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios are also presented in the table (000s omitted in dollar amounts).

(15) Stock-Based Compensation Plan

The MBT Financial Corp. 2008 Stock Incentive Plan was approved by shareholders at the May 1, 2008 Annual meeting of shareholders of MBT Financial Corp. This plan authorized the Board of Directors to grant equity incentive awards to key employees and non-employee directors. Such grants may be made until May 1, 2018 for up to 1,000,000 shares of the Corporation’s common stock. At the May 7, 2015 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, this plan was amended to increase the number of shares available for awards to 1,500,000. The amount that may be awarded to any one individual is limited to 100,000 shares in any one calendar year. As of December 31, 2015, the number of shares available under the plan is 475,587. This includes 229,709 shares that were previously awarded that have been forfeited.

Grants under the Stock Incentive Plan can be in the form of Stock Options, Stock Only Stock Appreciation Rights (SOSARs), Restricted Stock Awards, or Restricted Stock Unit Awards.

Stock Only Stock Appreciation Rights (SOSARs) – On January 21, 2015, 72,500 Stock Only Stock Appreciation Rights (SOSARs) were awarded to certain officers and on May 28, 2015, 55,500 SOSARs were awarded to certain executive officers in accordance with the MBT Financial Corp. 2008 Stock Incentive Plan. The SOSARs have a term of 10 years and vest in three equal annual installments beginning on December 31, 2015. SOSARs granted under the plan are structured as fixed grants with the exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying stock on the date of the grant, but providing for a cashless exercise. Upon exercise, the executive will generally receive common shares equal in value to the excess of the market value of the shares over the exercise price on the exercise date.

The fair value of each SOSAR grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions used for grants in 2015, 2014, and 2013: expected option lives of seven years for all three; expected volatility of 56.42%, 60.11%, and 62.09%; risk-free interest rates of 1.79%, 2.27%, and 1.25%; and dividend yields of 1.30%, 0.00%, and 0.00%.

A summary of the status of the Corporation’s non-vested SOSARs as of December 31, 2015 and changes during the year ended December 31, 2015 is as follows:

Nonvested SOSAR Shares	Shares			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Nonvested at January 1, 2015		106,551		$	2.50
Granted		128,000			2.67
Vested		(106,826	)		2.41
Forfeited		(9,506	)		2.54
Nonvested at December 31, 2015		118,219		$	2.76

As of December 31, 2015, there was $326,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share based compensation arrangements granted under the Plan. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.71 years.

71

Restricted Stock Awards – On May 28, 2015, 6,000 restricted shares were awarded to certain non-employee directors and in accordance with the MBT Financial Corp. 2008 Stock Incentive Plan. The shares vested on December 31, 2015. On September 24, 2015, 2,500 restricted shares were granted to an officer in accordance with the MBT Financial Corp. 2008 Stock Incentive Plan. These shares vest in two equal installments on July 13, 2016 and July 13, 2017.

A summary of the status of the Corporation’s non-vested restricted stock awards as of December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, and changes during the years then ended is as follows:

Restricted Stock Awards	2015		2014		2013
Nonvested at January 1		-		25,000		50,000
Granted		8,500		6,000		-
Vested		6,000		31,000		25,000
Forfeited		-		-		-
Nonvested at December 31		2,500		-		25,000

The total expense recorded for the restricted stock awards was $37,000 in 2015, $37,000 in 2014, and $20,000 in 2013. The amount of unrecognized compensation cost related to the nonvested portion of restricted stock awards under the plan was $13,000 as of December 31, 2015, $0 as of December 31, 2014, and $7,000 as of December 31, 2013.

Restricted Stock Unit Awards – Restricted stock units granted under the plan result in an award of common shares to key employees based on selected performance metrics during the performance period.

Key executives were granted 25,000 Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) on January 21, 2015. The RSUs will vest on December 15, 2017 based on the Bank achieving the performance target of $0.80 cumulative earnings per share in the two year performance period ending December 31, 2016. Restricted stock units are valued based on the share price at the date of grant multiplied by the number of units granted. The current expectation is that the performance objective will be met and 25,000 shares will be awarded upon completion of the vesting period. The total value of the restricted stock units granted in 2015 was $124,000.

Key executives were granted 35,000 Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) on March 7, 2014. The RSUs will vest on December 31, 2016 based on the Bank achieving the performance targets in the following schedule, with up to 50% of the RSUs earned in 2014 and up to 50% of the RSUs earned in 2015.

Performance Metric	Weighting Percentage		Performance Requirement	2014 Performance Threshold			2015 Performance Threshold
Net Income before tax		50%	At or greater than	$	8,413,000		$	9,232,000
Classified Assets to Capital Ratio		50%	At or less than		50	%		30	%

Both performance thresholds were achieved in 2014 and 2015. As a result, 35,000 RSUs were earned and will be awarded upon completion of the vesting period.

Accordingly, the Company recorded expenses of $116,000 in 2015 and $76,000 in 2014 for the RSUs granted. The total unrecognized compensation costs associated with non-vested restricted stock units was $140,000 as of December 31, 2015.

The following table presents the recorded expense for all Stock Based Compensation awards for the years ended December 31, and the unrecognized compensation expense for all Stock Based Compensation Plans as of December 31 for each year (000s):

	2015		2014		2013
Recorded expense for all Stock Based Compensation awards		413		295		181
Unrecognized compensation expense for all Stock Based Compensation awards		479		398		200

Under current regulations, the Bank is limited in the amount it may loan to the Corporation. Loans to the Corporation may not exceed ten percent of the Bank’s capital stock, surplus, and undivided profits plus the allowance for loan losses. Loans from the Bank to the Corporation are required to be collateralized. Accordingly, at December 31, 2015, Bank funds available for loans to the Corporation amounted to $15,840,000. The Bank has not made any loans to the Corporation.

Federal and state banking laws place certain restrictions on the amount of dividends a bank may make to its parent company. Michigan law limits the amount of dividends that the Bank can pay to the Corporation without regulatory approval to the amount of net income then on hand.

(17) Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for its other lending activities.

74

Financial instruments whose contractual amounts represent off-balance sheet credit risk at December 31 were as follows (000s omitted):

	Contractual Amount
	2015		2014
Commitments to extend credit:
Unused portion of commercial lines of credit	$	70,488	$	66,319
Unused portion of credit card lines of credit		4,396		3,630
Unused portion of home equity lines of credit		23,164		19,544
Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written		1,555		3,178
All other off-balance sheet assets		-		-

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Most commercial lines of credit are secured by real estate mortgages or other collateral, generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses, and require payment of a fee. Since the lines of credit may expire without being drawn upon, the total committed amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Credit card lines of credit have various established expiration dates, but are fundable on demand. Home equity lines of credit are secured by real estate mortgages, a majority of which have ten year expiration dates, but are fundable on demand. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case by case basis. The amount of the collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on Management’s credit evaluation of the counter party.

Standby letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements and other business transactions. $1,397,000 of the standby letters of credit expire in 2016 and $158,000 expire in 2018. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.

Various legal claims also arise from time to time in the normal course of business, which, in the opinion of management, will have no material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

(19) Fair Value Disclosures

The following tables present information about the Corporation’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the valuation techniques used by the Corporation to determine those fair values.

In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the Corporation has the ability to access.

Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs use other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, and other inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset. The Corporation did not utilize Level 3 inputs to measure the fair values of any assets on a recurring basis at December 31, 2015 and 2014.

In instances where inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels in the above fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. The Corporation’s assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset.

76

Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows (000’s omitted):

Investment Securities Available for Sale at December 31, 2015	Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

Total Securities Available for Sale	$	2,139	$	471,037	$	-

The changes in Level 3 assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis were (000’s omitted):

Investment Securities - Available for Sale	2015		2014
Balance at January 1	$	-	$	5,751
Total realized and unrealized gains (losses) included in income		-		(2,574	)
Total unrealized gains (losses) included in other comprehensive income		-		3,758
Net purchases, sales, calls and maturities		-		(6,935	)
Net transfers in/out of Level 3		-		-
Balance at December 31	$	-	$	-

The Company sold all of its Level 3 available for sale securities in 2014. The Company did not purchase any Level 3 available for sale securities during 2015 or 2014.

Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair value of positions classified as Level 3 assets. As a result, the unrealized gains and losses for these assets presented in the tables above may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable and unobservable inputs.

The Company also has assets that under certain conditions are subject to measurement at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These assets include held to maturity investments and loans. The Company estimated the fair values of these assets using Level 3 inputs, specifically discounted cash flow projections.

77

Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis are as follows (000’s omitted):

	Balance at December 31, 2015		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Impaired loans	$	24,886	$	-	$	-	$	22,334
Other Real Estate Owned	$	2,383	$	-	$	-	$	2,383

	Balance at December 31, 2014		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Impaired loans	$	35,670	$	-	$	-	$	32,015
Other Real Estate Owned	$	5,615	$	-	$	-	$	5,615

Impaired loans categorized as Level 3 assets consist of non-homogenous loans that are considered impaired. The Corporation estimates the fair value of the loans based on the present value of expected future cash flows using management’s best estimate of key assumptions. These assumptions include future payment ability, timing of payment streams, and estimated realizable values of available collateral (typically based on outside appraisals). Other Real Estate Owned (OREO) consists of property received in full or partial satisfaction of a receivable. The Corporation utilizes outside appraisals to estimate the fair value of OREO properties.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

MBT Financial Corp. carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2015, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2015, in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Corporation (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be in the Corporation’s periodic SEC filings.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of MBT Financial Corp. is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. MBT Financial Corp.’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Corporation’s financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

MBT Financial Corp.’s management assessed the effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015 based on criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013).” Based on that assessment, management determined that, as of December 31, 2015, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting is effective, based on those criteria. The registered public accounting firm that audited the financial statements included in this annual report on Form 10-K has issued an attestation report on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting which can be found under Item 8 of this form 10-K.

There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company's fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2015, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

(l) “Target Award %” means a defined percent of a Participant’s annual base salary for the applicable Performance Period, as set forth on Appendix B hereto.

Plan Administration

The Plan shall be administered jointly by the Compensation Committee and the CEO of the Company

The Committee has the authority and responsibility for:

(a) Establishing the design structure and terms and conditions of Awards made under the Plan in collaboration with the CEO

(b) Referring matters or decisions relating to the Plan to the Board as deemed appropriate by the Committee.

(c) Seeking outside advice from legal counsel or consultants on matters relating to the design and administration of the Plan

The CEO of the Company has the authority and responsibility for:

(b) Evaluating individual performance

(c) Providing feedback and recommendations to the Committee on the design structure of the Plan; level of annual Target Awards; and the specific terms and conditions for earning an Award under the Plan

Plan Participation

Executive Officers of the Company are eligible to participate in this Plan upon the recommendation of the CEO and approval of the Committee.

Incentive Award structure and Determination

General Structure

This Plan is structured to deliver an objectively defined incentive pay opportunity based on both Company financial performance and individual performance for the Performance Period. The two principal components or award factors that determine Awards payable under the plan are:

● The Funding Factor; and

● Participant’s Target Award %

Setting Annual Target Award %

Before the beginning of each Performance Period, Target Awards are to be established for each Plan Participant by the Committee. Such Target Awards will be expressed as a percent of the Participant’s annual base salary for the Performance Period, and will be set at levels consistent with the executive compensation philosophies and objectives of the Board. Target Award % for 2015 is set forth on Appendix B hereto.

Determination of Awards 

At the end of each Performance Period, the Award paid under the Plan for the Performance Period shall be determined as follows:

Step 1: The Compensation Committee, in its absolute discretion, sets the aggregate size of the award pool.

Step 2: Determine the Funding Factor based upon Net Operation Income performance (refer to the funding schedule under Appendix A)

Step 3: The Award will be calculated as follows:

 (Funding Factor) X (Participant’s Target Award %) X (Base Salary)

The Committee reserves the sole discretion to adjust the total Award pool resulting from the above process to reconcile to the total Award pool funded.

Adjustment of Performance Conditions

The Committee may modify or adjust the determination of corporate financial performance under the Plan to account for unusual or extraordinary events that occur during the Performance Period such as:

● Corporate reorganizations, acquisitions, including spin-offs and other distributions of property; or

● Changes in applicable laws or regulations that impact financial performance; or

● Accounting changes mandated by FASB that affect financial performance; or

● Material financial transactions that result in performance that in the judgment of the Committee does not fairly reflect outcomes normally expected to be under the control of management.

Payment of Awards

Payment of Awards 

Awards earned and payable as determined by the Committee shall be paid to the Participant in cash no later than March 15 of the year immediately following the Performance Period. In the event of a Participant’s death after the end of the Performance Period, but before payment of the Award, such Award shall be paid to the beneficiary or beneficiaries designated in writing by the Participant and filed with the Company or, in the absence of and such designation, or if no such designated beneficiary survives the Participant, to the Participant’s estate.

Termination of Employment 

A Participant must be employed in an Executive Officer capacity at the end of the Performance Period to receive payment of Awards earned under this Plan for such Performance Period.

General Provisions

Amendment or Discontinuation of this Plan

The Board may amend, alter, or discontinue this Plan at any time, provided that no amendment, alteration, or discontinuance may be made, which would materially and adversely affect the rights of a Participant under any Award opportunity in effect for the Performance Period during which such Board action is taken. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Plan may be amended at any time to: (i) comply with any law; (ii) preserve any intended favorable tax effects for the Company, the Plan or Participants; or (iii) avoid any unintended unfavorable tax effects for the Company, the Plan or Participants.

Tax Withholding 

The Company shall withhold any taxes which the Committee determines the Company is required by law or by the terms of this Plan to withhold in connection with any Awards made under the Plan. The Company may withhold cash, in an amount equal to the amount which the Committee determines is necessary to satisfy the obligation of the Company to withhold federal, state and local income taxes.

No Implied Rights to Employment

Neither this Plan nor any award hereunder shall be construed as giving any individual any right to continued employment with the Company. The Plan does not constitute a contract of employment, and the Company expressly reserves the right at any time to terminate employees free from liability, or any claim, under this Plan, except as may be specifically provided for under this Plan.

Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]

(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MBT Financial Corp. (the “Corporation”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Monroe Bank & Trust (the “Bank”). The Bank includes the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiary, MB&T Financial Services, Inc. The Bank operates fourteen banking offices in Monroe County, Michigan, six banking offices in Wayne County, Michigan, and a Loan and Wealth Management office in Lenawee County, Michigan. The Bank’s primary source of revenue is from providing loans to customers, who are predominantly small and middle-market businesses and middle-income individuals. The Corporation’s sole business segment is community banking.

The accounting and reporting policies of the Bank conform to practice within the banking industry and are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the near term are the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the fair value of investment securities, the valuation of other real estate owned, and the deferred tax asset.

The significant accounting policies are as follows:

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its subsidiary. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

SIGNIFICANT GROUP CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

Most of the Corporation's activities are with customers located within southeast Michigan. Notes 3 and 4 discuss the types of securities and lending that the Corporation engages in. The Corporation does not have any significant concentrations in any one industry or to any one customer.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Investment securities that are classified as “held to maturity” are stated at cost, and adjusted for accumulated amortization of premium and accretion of discount. The Bank has the intention and, in Management’s opinion, the ability to hold these investment securities until maturity. Investment securities that are classified as “available for sale” are stated at estimated market value, with the related unrealized gains and losses reported as an amount, net of taxes, as a component of stockholders’ equity. The market value of securities is based on quoted market prices. For securities that do not have readily available market values, estimated market values are calculated based on the market values of comparable securities.

Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities. Declines in the fair value of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses, management considers the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the intent and ability of the Corporation to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the specific identification method.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. When evaluating investment securities consideration is given to the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions and whether the Company has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, the Company may consider whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, or U.S. Government sponsored enterprises, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of reviews of the issuer’s financial condition. The assessment of whether an other-than-temporary decline exists involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and is based on the information available to management at a point in time.

When OTTI occurs, the amount of the OTTI recognized in earnings depends on whether an entity intends to sell the security or it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If an entity intends to sell or it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the OTTI shall be recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the investment’s amortized cost basis and its fair value at the balance sheet date. The previous amortized cost basis less the OTTI recognized in earnings becomes the new amortized cost basis of the investment. If a security is determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired, but the entity does not intend to sell the security, only the credit portion of the estimated loss is recognized in earnings, with the other portion of the loss recognized in other comprehensive income.

LOANS

The Bank grants mortgage, commercial, and consumer loans to customers. Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield using the interest method.

The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the credit is well secured and in the process of collection. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged off at an earlier date if principal or interest is considered doubtful.

All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash basis or cost recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK STOCK

The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (FHLBI). Members are required to own a certain amount of stock based on the level of borrowings and other factors. Stock in the FHLBI is recorded at redemption value which approximates fair value. The Company periodically evaluates the FHLBI stock for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both cash and stock dividends are reported as income.

LOANS HELD FOR SALE

Loans held for sale consist of fixed rate residential mortgage loans with maturities of 15 to 30 years. Such loans are recorded at the lower of aggregate cost or estimated fair value.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management's periodic review of the collectibility of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as non-accrual or renegotiated. For such loans that are also classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience, adjusted for qualitative factors.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower's prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either 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.

Troubled debt restructuring of loans is undertaken to improve the likelihood that the loan will be repaid in full under the modified terms in accordance with a reasonable repayment schedule. All modified loans are evaluated to determine whether the loans should be reported as Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDR). A loan is a TDR when the Bank, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower by modifying a loan. To make this determination, the Bank must determine whether (a) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and (b) the Bank granted the borrower a concession. This determination requires consideration of all of the facts and circumstances surrounding the modification. An overall general decline in the economy or some deterioration in a borrower’s financial condition does not automatically mean the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties.

Large groups of homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Corporation does not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures.

FORECLOSED ASSETS (INCLUDES OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED)

Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at the lower of fair value less costs to sell or the loan carrying amount at the date of the foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by Management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Expenses from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in net expenses from foreclosed assets.

BANK PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT

Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed generally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Upon the sale or other disposition of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are retired and the resulting gain or loss is recognized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, while renewals and improvements are capitalized. Software costs related to externally developed systems are capitalized at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life.

BANK OWNED LIFE INSURANCE

Bank owned life insurance policies are stated at the current cash surrender value of the policy, or the policy death proceeds less any obligation to provide a death benefit to an insured’s beneficiaries if that value is less than the cash surrender value. Increases in the asset value are recorded as earnings in other income.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Accounting principles generally require that revenue, expenses, gains, and losses be included in net income. Certain changes in assets and liabilities, however, such as unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale, and amounts recognized related to postretirement benefit plans (gains and losses, prior service costs, and transition assets or obligations), are reported as a direct adjustment to the equity section of the balance sheet. Such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income.

The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss and related tax effects are as follows:

Dollars in thousands	2015			2014			2013
Net unrealized gains (losses) on securities available for sale	$	(2,338	)	$	(1,722	)	$	(14,852	)
Post retirement benefit obligations		(1,226	)		(2,267	)		(1,624	)
Tax effect		1,212			1,356			5,603
Accumulated other comprehensive loss	$	(2,352	)	$	(2,633	)	$	(10,873	)

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

For the purpose of the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and balances due from banks and federal funds sold which mature within 90 days.

INCOME TAXES

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the various temporary differences between the book and tax bases of the various balance sheet assets and liabilities and gives current recognition to changes in tax rates and laws.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Corporation has several stock based compensation plans (Note 15). The total amount of compensation is measured at the fair value of the awards when granted, and this cost is expensed over the required service period, which is normally the vesting period of the options.

OFF BALANCE SHEET INSTRUMENTS

In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation has entered into commitments to extend credit, including commitments under credit card arrangements, commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded. Additional information regarding Off Balance Sheet Instruments is included in Note 17 in these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

FAIR VALUE

The Corporation measures or monitors many of its assets and liabilities on a fair value basis. Fair value is used on a recurring basis for assets and liabilities that are elected to be accounted for under the Fair Value Option as well as for certain assets and liabilities in which fair value is the primary basis of accounting. Examples of these include derivative instruments and available for sale securities. Additionally, fair value is used on a non-recurring basis to evaluate assets or liabilities for impairment or for disclosure purposes. Examples of these non-recurring uses of fair value include certain loans held for sale accounted for on a lower of cost or market basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, the Corporation uses various valuation techniques and assumptions when estimating fair value.

The Corporation applied the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1– inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. The Corporation’s mutual fund investments where quoted prices are available in an active market generally are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Level 2 – Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. The Corporation’s borrowed funds and investments in U.S. government agency securities, government sponsored mortgage backed securities, and obligations of states and political subdivisions are generally classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Fair values for these instruments are estimated using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flows.

Level 3 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Private equity investments and certain municipal debt obligations are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Fair values are initially valued based on transaction price and are adjusted to reflect exit values.

When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at and/or marked to fair value, the Corporation considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. When possible, the Corporation looks to active and observable markets to price identical assets or liabilities. When identical assets and liabilities are not traded in active markets, the Corporation looks to market observable data for similar assets or liabilities. Nevertheless, certain assets and liabilities are not actively traded in observable markets and the Corporation must use alternative valuation techniques to derive a fair value measurement.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date. The ASU adopts a standardized approach for revenue recognition and was a joint effort with the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The new revenue recognition standard is based on a core principle of recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU does not apply to financial instruments. The ASU is effective for public entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that period (therefore, for the year ending December 31, 2018 for the Corporation). Early adoption is permitted only as of annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that period. Management is currently assessing the impact to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standard Update (ASU) No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities related to the recognition and measurement of financial instruments. The most significant change included in the ASU is the requirement for certain equity investments (excluding investments that are consolidated or accounted for under the equity method) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Alternatively, equity investments without readily determinable fair values can be recorded at cost, and periodically evaluated for impairment using a qualitative assessment. If the qualitative assessment indicates the investment is impaired, it is required to be measured at fair value. The ASU also eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently assessing the impact to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

The investment securities portfolio is evaluated for impairment throughout the year. Impairment is recorded against individual securities, unless the decrease in fair value is attributable to interest rates or the lack of an active market, and management determines that the Company has the intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for an anticipated recovery in the market value. The fair values of investments with an amortized cost in excess of their fair values at December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are as follows (000s omitted):

The amount of investment securities issued by government agencies, states, and political subdivisions with unrealized losses and the amount of unrealized losses on those investment securities are primarily the result of market interest rates and not the result of the credit quality of the issuers of the securities. The company has the ability and intent to hold these securities until recovery, which may be until maturity. The fair value of these securities is expected to recover as the securities approach maturity. As of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were 146 and 116 securities in an unrealized loss position, respectively.

Investment securities carried at $118,823,000 and $111,151,000 were pledged or set aside to secure borrowings, public and trust deposits, and for other purposes required by law at December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

At December 31, 2015, Obligations of U. S. Government Agencies included securities issued by the Federal Home Loan Banks with an estimated market value of $184,467,000 and securities issued by the Federal Farm Credit Banks with an estimated market value of $184,594,000. At December 31, 2015, Mortgage Backed Securities issued by U. S. Government Agencies included securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association with an estimated market value of $103,252,000. At December 31, 2014, Obligations of U. S. Government Agencies included securities issued by the Federal Home Loan Banks with an estimated market value of $171,629,000 and securities issued by the Federal Farm Credit Banks with an estimated market value of $170,419,000. At December 31, 2014, Mortgage Backed Securities issued by U. S. Government Agencies included securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association with an estimated market value of $105,406,000.

For the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, proceeds from sales of securities amounted to $39,238,000, $122,579,000, and $81,875,000, respectively. Gross realized gains amounted to $653,000, $2,782,000, and $823,000, respectively. Gross realized losses amounted to $255,000, $3,436,000, and $399,000, respectively. The tax provision (benefit) applicable to these net realized gains and losses amounted to $135,000, ($222,000), and $144,000, respectively.

The sales of securities available for sale resulted in a reclassifications of $398,000 ($263,000 net of tax) from accumulated other comprehensive income to net gain on sales of securities in the consolidated statements of operations in the year ended December 31, 2015. The sales of securities available for sale resulted in a reclassifications of $654,000 ($432,000 net of tax) from accumulated other comprehensive loss to net loss on sales of securities in the consolidated statements of operations in the years ended December 31, 2014.

(5) Allowance For Loan Losses and Credit Quality of Loans

The Company separates its loan portfolio into segments to perform the calculation and analysis of the allowance for loan losses. The six segments analyzed are Agriculture and Agricultural Real Estate, Commercial, Commercial Real Estate, Construction Real Estate, Residential Real Estate, and Consumer and Other. The Agriculture and Agricultural Real Estate segment includes all loans to finance agricultural production and all loans secured by agricultural real estate. This segment does not include loans to finance agriculture that are secured by residential real estate, which are included in the Residential Real Estate segment. The Commercial segment includes loans to finance commercial and industrial businesses that are not secured by real estate. The Commercial Real Estate segment includes loans secured by non-farm, non-residential real estate. The Construction Real Estate segment includes loans to finance construction and land development. This includes residential and commercial construction and land development. The Residential Real Estate segment includes all loans, other than construction loans, that are secured by single family and multi-family residential real estate properties. The Consumer and Other segment includes all loans not included in any other segment. These are primarily loans to consumers for household, family, and other personal expenditures, such as autos, boats, and recreational vehicles.

Each period the provision for loan losses in the statement of operations results from the combination of an estimate by Management of loan losses that occurred during the current period and the ongoing adjustment of prior estimates of losses occurring in prior periods.

The provision for loan losses increases the allowance for loan losses, a valuation account which appears on the consolidated balance sheets. As the specific customer and amount of a loan loss is confirmed by gathering additional information, taking collateral in full or partial settlement of the loan, bankruptcy of the borrower, etc., the loan is charged off, reducing the allowance for loan losses. If, subsequent to a charge off, the Bank is able to collect additional amounts from the customer or sell collateral worth more than earlier estimated, a recovery is recorded.

To serve as a basis for making this provision, the Bank maintains an extensive credit risk monitoring process that considers several factors including: current economic conditions affecting the Bank’s customers, the payment performance of individual loans and pools of homogeneous loans, portfolio seasoning, changes in collateral values, and detailed reviews of specific loan relationships.

The Company utilizes an internal loan grading system to assign a risk grade to commercial loans and each credit relationship with more than $250,000 of aggregate credit exposure. The number of categories was increased in 2015 to allow differentiation between credits within the categories. Ratings for previous periods were not revised to utilize these new categories. Grades 10 through 45 are considered “pass” credits and grades 50 through 95 are considered “watch” credits and are subject to greater scrutiny. Loans with grades 60 and higher are considered substandard and most are evaluated for impairment. A description of the general characteristics of each grade is as follows:

● Grades 10 and 15 – Excellent – Loans secured by marketable collateral, with adequate margin, or supported by strong financial statements. Probability of serious financial deterioration is unlikely. Possess a sound repayment source and a secondary source. This classification will also include all loans secured by certificates of deposit or cash equivalents.

● Grades 20 and 25 – Satisfactory – Loans that have less than average risk and clearly demonstrate adequate debt service coverage. These loans may have some vulnerability, but are sufficiently strong to have minimal deterioration if adverse factors are encountered, and are expected to be fully collectable.

● Grades 30 and 35 – Average – Loans that have a reasonable amount of risk and may exhibit vulnerability to deterioration if adverse factors are encountered. These loans should demonstrate adequate debt service coverage but warrant a higher level of monitoring to ensure that weaknesses do not advance.

● Grades 40 and 45 – Pass/Watch – Loans that are considered “pass credits” yet appear on the “watch list”. Credit deficiency or potential weakness may include a lack of current or complete financial information. The level of risk is considered acceptable so long as the loan is given additional management supervision.

● Grades 50 and 55 – Watch – Loans that possess some credit deficiency or potential weakness that if not corrected, could increase risk in the future. The source of loan repayment is sufficient but may be considered inadequate by the Bank’s standards.

● Grades 60 and 65 – Substandard – Loans that exhibit one or more of the following characteristics: (1) uncertainty of repayment from primary source and financial deterioration currently underway; (2) inadequate current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor; (3) reliance on secondary source of repayment such as collateral liquidation or guarantees; (4) distinct possibility the Bank will sustain loss if deficiencies are not corrected; (5) unusual courses of action are needed to maintain probability of repayment; (6) insufficient cash flow to repay principal but continuing to pay interest; (7) the Bank is subordinated or unsecured due to flaws in documentation; (8) loans are restructured or are on nonaccrual status due to concessions to the borrower when compared to normal terms; (9) the Bank is contemplating foreclosure or legal action due to deterioration in the loan; or (10) there is deterioration in conditions and the borrower is highly vulnerable to these conditions.

● Grades 70 and 75 – Doubtful – Loans that exhibit one or more of the following characteristics: (1) loans with the weaknesses of Substandard loans and collection or liquidation is not probable to result in payment in full; (2) the primary source of repayment is gone and the quality of the secondary source is doubtful; or (3) the possibility of loss is high, but important pending factors may strengthen the loan.

● Grades 80-95 - Loss – Loans are considered uncollectible and of such little value that carrying them on the Bank’s financial statements is not feasible.

The assessment of compensating factors may result in a rating plus or minus one grade from those listed above. These factors include, but are not limited to collateral, guarantors, environmental conditions, history, plan/projection reasonableness, quality of information, and payment delinquency.

The portfolio segments in each credit risk grade as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 are as follows (000s omitted):

Loans are placed on non-accrual status when, in the opinion of Management, the collection of additional interest is doubtful. Loans are automatically placed on non-accrual status upon becoming ninety days past due, however, loans may be placed on non-accrual status regardless of whether or not they are past due. All cash received on non-accrual loans is applied to the principal balance. Loans are considered for return to accrual status on an individual basis when all principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

The following is a summary of non-accrual loans as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 (000s omitted):

For loans deemed to be impaired due to an expectation that all contractual payments will probably not be received, impairment is measured by comparing the Bank’s recorded investment in the loan to the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the fair value of the collateral, or the loan’s observable market price.

The Bank may agree to modify the terms of a loan in order to improve the Bank’s ability to collect amounts due. These modifications may include reduction of the interest rate, extension of the loan term, or in some cases, reduction of the principal balance. Modifications that are performed due to the debtor’s financial difficulties are considered Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs).

Loans that were classified as TDRs during the years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are as follows (000s omitted from dollar amounts):

A modification of a loan constitutes a TDR when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the modification constitutes a concession. The Corporation offers various types of concessions when modifying a loan, however, forgiveness of principal is rarely granted. Commercial loans modified in a TDR often involve temporary interest-only payments, term extensions, and converting revolving credit lines to term loans. Additional collateral, a co-borrower, or a guarantor may be requested. Loans modified in a TDR are typically already on nonaccrual status and partial charge-offs have in some cases already been taken against the outstanding loan balance. As a result, loans modified in a TDR for the Corporation may have the financial effect of increasing the specific allowance associated with the loan. The allowance for impaired loans that have been modified in a TDR is measured based on the estimated fair value of the collateral, less any selling costs, if the loan is collateral dependent or on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate. Management exercises significant judgment in developing these estimates.

The regulatory guidance requires loans to be accounted for as collateral-dependent loans when borrowers have filed Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the debt has been discharged and the borrower has not reaffirmed the debt, regardless of the delinquency status of the loan. The filing of bankruptcy by the borrower is evidence of financial difficulty and the discharge of the obligation by the bankruptcy court is deemed to be a concession granted to the borrower.

At December 31, 2015 the Corporation had no commitments to lend additional funds to the related debtors whose terms have been modified in a TDR.

(9) Retirement Plans and Postretirement Benefit Plans

In 2000, the Bank implemented a retirement plan that included both a money purchase pension plan, as well as a voluntary profit sharing 401(k) plan for all employees who meet certain age and length of service eligibility requirements. In 2002, the Bank amended its retirement plan to freeze the money purchase plan and retain the 401(k) plan. To ensure that the plan meets the Safe Harbor provisions of the applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code, the Bank contributes an amount equal to 4% of the employee’s base salary to the 401(k) plan for all eligible employees who contribute at least 5% of their salary. In addition, an employee may contribute from 1 to 75 percent of his or her base salary, up to a maximum of $24,000 in 2015. In 2015, 2014, and 2013 the Bank made a matching contribution of 100% on the first 3% of employee deferrals and 50% on the next 2% of deferrals. Depending on the Bank’s profitability, an additional profit sharing contribution may be made by the Bank to the 401(k) plan. There were no profit sharing contributions in 2015, 2014, and 2013. The total retirement plan expense was $558,000, for the year ended December 31, 2015, $558,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014, and $515,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013.

The Bank has a postretirement benefit plan that generally provides for the continuation of medical premium payments for all employees hired before January 1, 2007 who retire from the Bank at age 55 or older, upon meeting certain length of service eligibility requirements. The Bank does not fund its postretirement benefit obligation. Rather, payments are made as costs are incurred by covered retirees. The amount of benefits paid under the postretirement benefit plan was $144,000 in 2015, $201,000 in 2014, and $206,000 in 2013. The amount of insurance premium paid by the Bank for retirees is capped at 200% of the cost of the premium as of December 31, 1992.

A reconciliation of the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation (“APBO”) to the amounts recorded in the consolidated balance sheets in Interest Payable and Other Liabilities at December 31 is as follows (000s omitted):

	2015			2014
APBO	$	3,406		$	3,865
Unrecognized net transition obligation		-			-
Unrecognized prior service costs		-			-
Unrecognized net gain (loss)		(67	)		(780	)
Accrued benefit cost at fiscal year end	$	3,339		$	3,085

Components of the Bank’s postretirement benefit expense were as follows:

	2015		2014		2013
Service cost	$	173	$	135	$	134
Interest cost		143		144		106
Prior service costs		-		2		4
Amortization of gains		27		1		-
Net postretirement benefit expense	$	343	$	282	$	244

The APBO as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 was calculated using assumed discount rates of 4.25% and 3.75%, respectively. Based on the provisions of the plan, the Bank’s expense is capped at 200% of the 1992 expense, with all expenses above the cap incurred by the retiree. The expense reached the cap in 2004, and accordingly the impact of an increase in health care costs on the APBO was not calculated.

The Bank Owned Life Insurance policies fund a Death Benefit Only (DBO) obligation that the Bank has with 6 of its active directors, 5 retired directors, 11 active executives, and 11 retired executives. The DBO plan, which replaced previous split dollar agreements, provides a taxable death benefit. The benefit for directors is grossed up to provide a net benefit to each director’s beneficiaries based on that director’s length of service on the board. The directors’ net death benefits are $500,000 for director service of less than 3 years, $600,000 for service up to 5 years, $750,000 for service up to 10 years, and $1,000,000 for director service of 10 years or more. The active directors who participate in the plan have all waived the postretirement benefit. The executives’ beneficiaries will receive a grossed up benefit that will provide a net benefit equal to two times the executive’s base salary if death occurs during employment and a postretirement benefit equal to the executive’s final annual salary rate at the time of retirement if death occurs after retirement.

Information for the postretirement death benefits and health care benefits is as follows as of the December 31 measurement date (000s):

(11) Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Certain of the Bank’s assets and liabilities are financial instruments that have fair values that differ from their carrying values in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. These fair values, along with the methods and assumptions used to estimate such fair values, are discussed below. The fair values of all financial instruments not discussed below are estimated to be equal to their carrying amounts as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents approximate fair values.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Fair value for the Bank’s investment securities was determined using the market value in active markets, where available. When not available, fair values are estimated using the fair value hierarchy. In the fair value hierarchy, Level 2 fair values are determined using observable inputs other than Level 1 market prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets. Level 3 values are determined using unobservable inputs, such as discounted cash flow projections, for securities with no market activity. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2015, held to maturity investments in obligations of states and political subdivisions were classified as Level 2 fair values. Due to the lack of market data, the outstanding balance of certain of these investments was transferred from Level 2 to Level 3 as of December 31, 2015. These estimated market values are disclosed in Note 3 and the required fair value disclosures are in Note 19. The carrying value of Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis stock approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the issuer.

LOANS AND LOANS HELD FOR SALE

Loans Held for Sale consists of fixed rate mortgage loans originated by the Bank. The fair value of Loans Held for Sale is the estimated value the Bank will receive upon sale of the loan. The fair value of all other loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows associated with the loans, using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.

DEPOSIT LIABILITIES

The fair values for demand deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e. the carrying amounts). The carrying amounts of variable rate certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting date. Fair values of fixed rate, fixed maturity, certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the related cash flows using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

SECURITIES SOLD UNDER REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS

The estimated fair value of the Securities Sold under Repurchase Agreements is estimated by discounting the related cash flows using the rates currently available for similarly structured borrowings with similar maturities.

ACCRUED INTEREST

The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.

OFF-BALANCE-SHEET FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair values of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written are estimated using the fees currently charged to engage into similar agreements. The fair values of these instruments are not significant.

FAIR VALUES

The carrying amounts and approximate fair values as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are as follows (000s omitted):

Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block]

(12) Federal Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be reversed. The Corporation and the Bank file a consolidated Federal income tax return.

The current and deferred components of the provision for Federal income taxes were as follows (000s omitted):

	2015			2014		2013
Current	$	(660	)	$	69	$	42
Deferred		5,680			2,503		1,726
Valuation allowance reversal		-			-		(19,881	)
Tax expense (benefit)	$	5,020		$	2,572	$	(18,113	)

The effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate applicable to corporations as a result of permanent differences between accounting and taxable income as follows:

	2015			2014			2013
Statutory rate		34.0	%		34.0	%		34.0	%
Municipal interest income		(2.1	)		(3.9	)		(5.4	)
Other, net		(2.5	)		(4.1	)		(4.8	)
Valuation allowance		-			-			(267.8	)
Effective tax rate		29.4	%		26.0	%		(244.0	)%

In accordance with ASC 740, the Company is required to establish a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets when it is “more likely than not” that a portion or the entire deferred tax asset will not be realized. The evaluation requires significant judgment and extensive analysis of all available positive and negative evidence, the forecast of future income, applicable tax planning strategies, and assessments of current and future economic and business conditions.

During 2009, the Company established a deferred tax valuation allowance of $13.9 million after evaluating all positive and negative evidence. The Company determined that it was more likely than not that it would not be able to utilize its entire deferred tax asset of $17.0 million. The expense for recording the valuation allowance was a non cash item, and recording the expense does not imply that the Company owes additional taxes. As business and economic conditions changed, the Company reevaluated the criteria related to the recognition of deferred tax assets, and during 2010, The Company increased its valuation allowance to $20.9 million, which equaled 100% of the deferred tax asset. After its review of the relevant data in 2011, the Company decided to continue to maintain its valuation allowance at 100% of the deferred tax asset of $24.2 million.

In December 2012, the Company again evaluated the positive and negative evidence regarding its expected utilization of its deferred tax asset. Positive evidence included improving local and regional economic conditions, six consecutive quarterly profits, consistent improvement in asset quality, reduction in credit related expenses, and projections for continued improvements in earnings for the foreseeable future. Negative evidence included the large amount of net operating loss carry forwards that the Company had accumulated, persistent concern about the strength of the economic recovery, and still elevated problem asset levels at the Company. The Company determined that, as of December 31, 2012, it was more likely than not that the Company would be able to utilize a portion of its deferred tax asset, but it was not more likely than not that all of the deferred tax asset would be utilized. Based on its projection of the amount of deferred tax asset that it expected to utilize in the future, the Company concluded to reduce the valuation allowance by $5.0 million. The reduction in the valuation allowance was recorded by recognizing a benefit to federal income tax expense.

In 2013, the Company’s evaluation of the positive and negative evidence regarding its expected utilization of its deferred tax asset indicated that that it was more likely than not that the Company would utilize its entire deferred tax asset. The positive evidence, consisting of nine consecutive profitable quarters and projections for future taxable earnings exceeded the negative evidence, which was primarily the prior net operating losses experienced. As a result, the Company eliminated the remaining $19.9 million valuation allowance in 2013 by recording a benefit to federal income tax expense.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into certain transactions that have tax consequences. From time to time, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) questions and/or challenges the tax positions taken by the Company with respect to those transactions. The Company believes that its tax returns were filed based upon applicable statutes, regulations, and case law in effect at the time of the transactions. The IRS, an administrative authority of a court, if presented with the transactions could disagree with the Company’s interpretation of the tax law.

The Company is currently under an audit of its tax returns filed for the 2004, 2005, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 tax years. The Company agreed to a settlement with the IRS in the fourth quarter of 2015, and that settlement must now be approved by Congress’ Joint Committee on Taxation. The Company remitted the taxes and estimated interest required by the settlement and, based on current knowledge, the Company believes that the audit will be resolved without incurring any additional tax or interest expense. The settlement resulted in the Company recording a reduction of $955,000 in the liability previously recorded.

The components of the net deferred Federal income tax asset (included in Interest Receivable and Other Assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets) at December 31 are as follows (000s omitted):

	2015			2014
Deferred Federal income tax assets:

Regulatory Capital Requirements under Banking Regulations [Text Block]

(13) Regulatory Capital Requirements

The Corporation and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory (and possibly additional discretionary) actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Corporation and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Corporation and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the accompanying tables) of Total and Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to average assets.

In 2013, the federal banking agencies issued revisions to the existing capital rules to incorporate certain changes to the Basel capital framework, including Basel III and other elements. The intent is to strengthen the definition of regulatory capital, increase risk based capital requirements, and make selected changes to the calculation of risk weighted assets. Beginning January 1, 2015, banks transitioned to the new rules and reported results with the first Call Report of 2015. As part of the new rules there are several provisions affecting the Company, such as implementation of a new common equity tier 1 ratio, the start of a capital conservation buffer, and increased prompt corrective action capital adequacy thresholds.

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Bank’s capital ratios exceeded the required minimums to be considered well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum Total risk based, Tier 1 risk based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the tables, as well as meeting other requirements specified by the federal banking regulators, including not being subject to any written agreement or order issued by the FDIC pursuant to section 8 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act.

The Bank is considered to be “Well Capitalized” as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and there are no conditions or events since December 31, 2015 that Management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

The Corporation’s and Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios are also presented in the table (000s omitted in dollar amounts).

(15) Stock-Based Compensation Plan

The MBT Financial Corp. 2008 Stock Incentive Plan was approved by shareholders at the May 1, 2008 Annual meeting of shareholders of MBT Financial Corp. This plan authorized the Board of Directors to grant equity incentive awards to key employees and non-employee directors. Such grants may be made until May 1, 2018 for up to 1,000,000 shares of the Corporation’s common stock. At the May 7, 2015 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, this plan was amended to increase the number of shares available for awards to 1,500,000. The amount that may be awarded to any one individual is limited to 100,000 shares in any one calendar year. As of December 31, 2015, the number of shares available under the plan is 475,587. This includes 229,709 shares that were previously awarded that have been forfeited.

Grants under the Stock Incentive Plan can be in the form of Stock Options, Stock Only Stock Appreciation Rights (SOSARs), Restricted Stock Awards, or Restricted Stock Unit Awards.

Stock Only Stock Appreciation Rights (SOSARs) – On January 21, 2015, 72,500 Stock Only Stock Appreciation Rights (SOSARs) were awarded to certain officers and on May 28, 2015, 55,500 SOSARs were awarded to certain executive officers in accordance with the MBT Financial Corp. 2008 Stock Incentive Plan. The SOSARs have a term of 10 years and vest in three equal annual installments beginning on December 31, 2015. SOSARs granted under the plan are structured as fixed grants with the exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying stock on the date of the grant, but providing for a cashless exercise. Upon exercise, the executive will generally receive common shares equal in value to the excess of the market value of the shares over the exercise price on the exercise date.

The fair value of each SOSAR grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions used for grants in 2015, 2014, and 2013: expected option lives of seven years for all three; expected volatility of 56.42%, 60.11%, and 62.09%; risk-free interest rates of 1.79%, 2.27%, and 1.25%; and dividend yields of 1.30%, 0.00%, and 0.00%.

A summary of the status of the Corporation’s non-vested restricted stock awards as of December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, and changes during the years then ended is as follows:

Restricted Stock Awards	2015		2014		2013
Nonvested at January 1		-		25,000		50,000
Granted		8,500		6,000		-
Vested		6,000		31,000		25,000
Forfeited		-		-		-
Nonvested at December 31		2,500		-		25,000

The total expense recorded for the restricted stock awards was $37,000 in 2015, $37,000 in 2014, and $20,000 in 2013. The amount of unrecognized compensation cost related to the nonvested portion of restricted stock awards under the plan was $13,000 as of December 31, 2015, $0 as of December 31, 2014, and $7,000 as of December 31, 2013.

Restricted Stock Unit Awards – Restricted stock units granted under the plan result in an award of common shares to key employees based on selected performance metrics during the performance period.

Key executives were granted 25,000 Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) on January 21, 2015. The RSUs will vest on December 15, 2017 based on the Bank achieving the performance target of $0.80 cumulative earnings per share in the two year performance period ending December 31, 2016. Restricted stock units are valued based on the share price at the date of grant multiplied by the number of units granted. The current expectation is that the performance objective will be met and 25,000 shares will be awarded upon completion of the vesting period. The total value of the restricted stock units granted in 2015 was $124,000.

Key executives were granted 35,000 Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) on March 7, 2014. The RSUs will vest on December 31, 2016 based on the Bank achieving the performance targets in the following schedule, with up to 50% of the RSUs earned in 2014 and up to 50% of the RSUs earned in 2015.

Performance Metric	Weighting Percentage		Performance Requirement	2014 Performance Threshold			2015 Performance Threshold
Net Income before tax		50%	At or greater than	$	8,413,000		$	9,232,000
Classified Assets to Capital Ratio		50%	At or less than		50	%		30	%

Both performance thresholds were achieved in 2014 and 2015. As a result, 35,000 RSUs were earned and will be awarded upon completion of the vesting period.

Accordingly, the Company recorded expenses of $116,000 in 2015 and $76,000 in 2014 for the RSUs granted. The total unrecognized compensation costs associated with non-vested restricted stock units was $140,000 as of December 31, 2015.

The following table presents the recorded expense for all Stock Based Compensation awards for the years ended December 31, and the unrecognized compensation expense for all Stock Based Compensation Plans as of December 31 for each year (000s):

	2015		2014		2013
Recorded expense for all Stock Based Compensation awards		413		295		181
Unrecognized compensation expense for all Stock Based Compensation awards		479		398		200

In addition to the stock based awards noted above, the Company has 110,600 stock options outstanding with a minimum exercise price of $15.33 that will expire in 1.01 years.

Under current regulations, the Bank is limited in the amount it may loan to the Corporation. Loans to the Corporation may not exceed ten percent of the Bank’s capital stock, surplus, and undivided profits plus the allowance for loan losses. Loans from the Bank to the Corporation are required to be collateralized. Accordingly, at December 31, 2015, Bank funds available for loans to the Corporation amounted to $15,840,000. The Bank has not made any loans to the Corporation.

Federal and state banking laws place certain restrictions on the amount of dividends a bank may make to its parent company. Michigan law limits the amount of dividends that the Bank can pay to the Corporation without regulatory approval to the amount of net income then on hand.

Fair Value Of Off Balance Sheet Risks Disclosure [Abstract]

Fair Value Of Off Balance Sheet Risks Disclosure [Text Block]

(17) Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for its other lending activities.

Financial instruments whose contractual amounts represent off-balance sheet credit risk at December 31 were as follows (000s omitted):

	Contractual Amount
	2015		2014
Commitments to extend credit:
Unused portion of commercial lines of credit	$	70,488	$	66,319
Unused portion of credit card lines of credit		4,396		3,630
Unused portion of home equity lines of credit		23,164		19,544
Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written		1,555		3,178
All other off-balance sheet assets		-		-

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Most commercial lines of credit are secured by real estate mortgages or other collateral, generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses, and require payment of a fee. Since the lines of credit may expire without being drawn upon, the total committed amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Credit card lines of credit have various established expiration dates, but are fundable on demand. Home equity lines of credit are secured by real estate mortgages, a majority of which have ten year expiration dates, but are fundable on demand. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case by case basis. The amount of the collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on Management’s credit evaluation of the counter party.

Standby letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements and other business transactions. $1,397,000 of the standby letters of credit expire in 2016 and $158,000 expire in 2018. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.

Various legal claims also arise from time to time in the normal course of business, which, in the opinion of management, will have no material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value, Measurement Inputs, Disclosure [Text Block]

(19) Fair Value Disclosures

The following tables present information about the Corporation’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the valuation techniques used by the Corporation to determine those fair values.

In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the Corporation has the ability to access.

Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs use other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, and other inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset. The Corporation did not utilize Level 3 inputs to measure the fair values of any assets on a recurring basis at December 31, 2015 and 2014.

In instances where inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels in the above fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. The Corporation’s assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset.

Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows (000’s omitted):

Investment Securities Available for Sale at December 31, 2015	Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

The Company sold all of its Level 3 available for sale securities in 2014. The Company did not purchase any Level 3 available for sale securities during 2015 or 2014.

Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair value of positions classified as Level 3 assets. As a result, the unrealized gains and losses for these assets presented in the tables above may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable and unobservable inputs.

The Company also has assets that under certain conditions are subject to measurement at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These assets include held to maturity investments and loans. The Company estimated the fair values of these assets using Level 3 inputs, specifically discounted cash flow projections.

Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis are as follows (000’s omitted):

	Balance at December 31, 2015		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Impaired loans	$	24,886	$	-	$	-	$	22,334
Other Real Estate Owned	$	2,383	$	-	$	-	$	2,383

	Balance at December 31, 2014		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Impaired loans	$	35,670	$	-	$	-	$	32,015
Other Real Estate Owned	$	5,615	$	-	$	-	$	5,615

Impaired loans categorized as Level 3 assets consist of non-homogenous loans that are considered impaired. The Corporation estimates the fair value of the loans based on the present value of expected future cash flows using management’s best estimate of key assumptions. These assumptions include future payment ability, timing of payment streams, and estimated realizable values of available collateral (typically based on outside appraisals). Other Real Estate Owned (OREO) consists of property received in full or partial satisfaction of a receivable. The Corporation utilizes outside appraisals to estimate the fair value of OREO properties.

Investment, Policy [Policy Text Block]

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Investment securities that are classified as “held to maturity” are stated at cost, and adjusted for accumulated amortization of premium and accretion of discount. The Bank has the intention and, in Management’s opinion, the ability to hold these investment securities until maturity. Investment securities that are classified as “available for sale” are stated at estimated market value, with the related unrealized gains and losses reported as an amount, net of taxes, as a component of stockholders’ equity. The market value of securities is based on quoted market prices. For securities that do not have readily available market values, estimated market values are calculated based on the market values of comparable securities.

Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities. Declines in the fair value of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses, management considers the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the intent and ability of the Corporation to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the specific identification method.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. When evaluating investment securities consideration is given to the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions and whether the Company has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, the Company may consider whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, or U.S. Government sponsored enterprises, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of reviews of the issuer’s financial condition. The assessment of whether an other-than-temporary decline exists involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and is based on the information available to management at a point in time.

When OTTI occurs, the amount of the OTTI recognized in earnings depends on whether an entity intends to sell the security or it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If an entity intends to sell or it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the OTTI shall be recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the investment’s amortized cost basis and its fair value at the balance sheet date. The previous amortized cost basis less the OTTI recognized in earnings becomes the new amortized cost basis of the investment. If a security is determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired, but the entity does not intend to sell the security, only the credit portion of the estimated loss is recognized in earnings, with the other portion of the loss recognized in other comprehensive income.

Finance, Loan and Lease Receivables, Held-for-investment, Policy [Policy Text Block]

LOANS

The Bank grants mortgage, commercial, and consumer loans to customers. Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield using the interest method.

The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the credit is well secured and in the process of collection. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged off at an earlier date if principal or interest is considered doubtful.

All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash basis or cost recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances [Policy Text Block]

FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK STOCK

The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (FHLBI). Members are required to own a certain amount of stock based on the level of borrowings and other factors. Stock in the FHLBI is recorded at redemption value which approximates fair value. The Company periodically evaluates the FHLBI stock for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both cash and stock dividends are reported as income.

LOANS HELD FOR SALE

Loans held for sale consist of fixed rate residential mortgage loans with maturities of 15 to 30 years. Such loans are recorded at the lower of aggregate cost or estimated fair value.

Loans and Leases Receivable, Allowance for Loan Losses Policy [Policy Text Block]

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management's periodic review of the collectibility of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as non-accrual or renegotiated. For such loans that are also classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience, adjusted for qualitative factors.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower's prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either 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.

Troubled debt restructuring of loans is undertaken to improve the likelihood that the loan will be repaid in full under the modified terms in accordance with a reasonable repayment schedule. All modified loans are evaluated to determine whether the loans should be reported as Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDR). A loan is a TDR when the Bank, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower by modifying a loan. To make this determination, the Bank must determine whether (a) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and (b) the Bank granted the borrower a concession. This determination requires consideration of all of the facts and circumstances surrounding the modification. An overall general decline in the economy or some deterioration in a borrower’s financial condition does not automatically mean the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties.

Large groups of homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Corporation does not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures.

Finance, Loan and Lease Receivables, Held for Investments, Foreclosed Assets Policy [Policy Text Block]

FORECLOSED ASSETS (INCLUDES OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED)

Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at the lower of fair value less costs to sell or the loan carrying amount at the date of the foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by Management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Expenses from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in net expenses from foreclosed assets.

Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block]

BANK PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT

Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed generally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Upon the sale or other disposition of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are retired and the resulting gain or loss is recognized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, while renewals and improvements are capitalized. Software costs related to externally developed systems are capitalized at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life.

Bank Owned Life Insurance [Policy Text Block]

BANK OWNED LIFE INSURANCE

Bank owned life insurance policies are stated at the current cash surrender value of the policy, or the policy death proceeds less any obligation to provide a death benefit to an insured’s beneficiaries if that value is less than the cash surrender value. Increases in the asset value are recorded as earnings in other income.

Comprehensive Income, Policy [Policy Text Block]

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Accounting principles generally require that revenue, expenses, gains, and losses be included in net income. Certain changes in assets and liabilities, however, such as unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale, and amounts recognized related to postretirement benefit plans (gains and losses, prior service costs, and transition assets or obligations), are reported as a direct adjustment to the equity section of the balance sheet. Such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income.

The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss and related tax effects are as follows:

Dollars in thousands	2015			2014			2013
Net unrealized gains (losses) on securities available for sale	$	(2,338	)	$	(1,722	)	$	(14,852	)

For the purpose of the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and balances due from banks and federal funds sold which mature within 90 days.

Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]

INCOME TAXES

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the various temporary differences between the book and tax bases of the various balance sheet assets and liabilities and gives current recognition to changes in tax rates and laws.

Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans Policy [Policy Text Block]

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Corporation has several stock based compensation plans (Note 15). The total amount of compensation is measured at the fair value of the awards when granted, and this cost is expensed over the required service period, which is normally the vesting period of the options.

Off-Balance-Sheet Credit Exposure, Policy [Policy Text Block]

OFF BALANCE SHEET INSTRUMENTS

In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation has entered into commitments to extend credit, including commitments under credit card arrangements, commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded. Additional information regarding Off Balance Sheet Instruments is included in Note 17 in these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Fair Value Measurement, Policy [Policy Text Block]

FAIR VALUE

The Corporation measures or monitors many of its assets and liabilities on a fair value basis. Fair value is used on a recurring basis for assets and liabilities that are elected to be accounted for under the Fair Value Option as well as for certain assets and liabilities in which fair value is the primary basis of accounting. Examples of these include derivative instruments and available for sale securities. Additionally, fair value is used on a non-recurring basis to evaluate assets or liabilities for impairment or for disclosure purposes. Examples of these non-recurring uses of fair value include certain loans held for sale accounted for on a lower of cost or market basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, the Corporation uses various valuation techniques and assumptions when estimating fair value.

The Corporation applied the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1– inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. The Corporation’s mutual fund investments where quoted prices are available in an active market generally are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Level 2 – Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. The Corporation’s borrowed funds and investments in U.S. government agency securities, government sponsored mortgage backed securities, and obligations of states and political subdivisions are generally classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Fair values for these instruments are estimated using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flows.

Level 3 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Private equity investments and certain municipal debt obligations are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Fair values are initially valued based on transaction price and are adjusted to reflect exit values.

When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at and/or marked to fair value, the Corporation considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. When possible, the Corporation looks to active and observable markets to price identical assets or liabilities. When identical assets and liabilities are not traded in active markets, the Corporation looks to market observable data for similar assets or liabilities. Nevertheless, certain assets and liabilities are not actively traded in observable markets and the Corporation must use alternative valuation techniques to derive a fair value measurement.

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date. The ASU adopts a standardized approach for revenue recognition and was a joint effort with the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The new revenue recognition standard is based on a core principle of recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU does not apply to financial instruments. The ASU is effective for public entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that period (therefore, for the year ending December 31, 2018 for the Corporation). Early adoption is permitted only as of annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that period. Management is currently assessing the impact to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standard Update (ASU) No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities related to the recognition and measurement of financial instruments. The most significant change included in the ASU is the requirement for certain equity investments (excluding investments that are consolidated or accounted for under the equity method) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Alternatively, equity investments without readily determinable fair values can be recorded at cost, and periodically evaluated for impairment using a qualitative assessment. If the qualitative assessment indicates the investment is impaired, it is required to be measured at fair value. The ASU also eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently assessing the impact to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.
