On July 18, 2003, the Company issued $20,619 in TPS from its participation in the issuance of a pooled TPS.  The security has a 30-year maturity, does not require any principal amortization, and is callable at par at the issuer's option.  The interest rate was fixed at 6.975 percent until October 1, 2010, when it changed to a variable rate based on the three-month LIBOR plus 3.05 percent.  At December 31, 2011, the interest rate was 3.42 percent. Interest is payable quarterly.  The effective cost of this security at December 31, 2011, including amortization of the discount fee, was 3.53 percent.  Holders of the subordinated notes have no voting rights, are unsecured, and rank junior in priority to all of the Company's indebtedness and senior to the Company's common stock.  See Note 1 for a discussion of the accounting principles related to this debt.
