The Company originates loans for business, consumer and real estate activities and for equipment purchases. Such loans are concentrated in Yolo, Placer, Sonoma, Shasta, Humboldt, Mendocino, Trinity and Del Norte Counties and neighboring communities. Substantially all loans are collateralized. Generally, real estate loans are secured by real property. Commercial and other loans are secured by bank deposits, real estate or business or personal assets. Leases are generally secured by equipment. The Company’s policy for requiring collateral reflects the Company’s analysis of the borrower, the borrower’s industry and the economic environment in which the loan would be granted. The loans are expected to be repaid from cash flows or proceeds from the sale of selected assets of the borrower.

Major classifications of loans as of the dates indicated were as follows (in thousands):

A troubled debt restructuring (“TDRs”) is a formal modification of the terms of a loan when the lender, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower. The modification of the terms of such loans included one or a combination of the following: a reduction of the stated interest rate of the loan; an extension of the maturity date at a stated rate of interest lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk; or a permanent reduction of the recorded investment in the loan.

At March 31, 2014, accruing TDRs were $2,131,000 and nonaccrual TDRs were $841,000 compared to accruing TDRs of $2,151,000 and nonaccrual TDRs of $905,000 at December 31, 2013. At March 31, 2014, there were $8,000 in specific reserves allocated to customers whose loan terms were modified in troubled debt restructurings.

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses based on management’s evaluation of the probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. In determining levels of risk, management considers a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, asset classifications, economic trends, industry experience and trends, geographic concentrations, estimated collateral values, historical loan loss experience, and the Company’s underwriting policies. During the second quarter of 2013, there was a change in the Bank’s method of calculating the historical loss factors applied to loans identified as “homogenous segments” of the loan portfolio as follows: Losses from the past twelve quarters are applied to loan pools based on a “Migration Analysis” method. The method calculates Net Charge Offs (charge offs less corresponding recoveries) and measures them against average balances in loan pools based on the risk grade in effect on charged-off loans four quarters prior to the actual charge off date. The logic behind this four quarter “look back” is to account for management’s estimate of the typical time lapse between the recognition of the problem loan and the recognition of some or all of the loan as uncollectable. In addition, the loss ratios are calculated using “factored” logic which systematically reduces the Net Charge Off value so that charge offs occurring in older periods do not have as much weight as more recent charge offs. Management of the Company believes that, given the recent trends in historical losses and the correlation of those losses with a loans identified risk grade, that incorporation of a migration analysis in the current and future analyses was a prudent refinement of the allowance methodology. In addition, management believes that the decreases in the overall level of the allowance for loan losses over the past several quarters is directionally consistent with the improving credit quality trends of the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at an amount management considers adequate to cover the probable incurred losses in loans receivable. While management uses the best information available to make these estimates, future adjustments to allowances may be necessary due to economic, operating, regulatory, and other conditions that may be beyond the Company’s control. The Company also engages a third party credit review consultant to analyze the Company’s loan loss adequacy periodically. In addition, the regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on judgments different from those of management.

The allowance for loan losses is comprised of several components including the specific, formula and unallocated allowance relating to loans in the loan portfolio. Our methodology for determining the allowance for loan losses consists of several key elements, which include:

· Specific Allowances. A specific allowance is established when management has identified unique or particular risks that were related to a specific loan that demonstrated risk characteristics consistent with impairment. Specific allowances are established when management can estimate the amount of an impairment of a loan.

· Formula Allowance. The formula allowance is calculated by applying loss factors through the assignment of loss factors to homogenous pools of loans. Changes in risk grades of both performing and nonperforming loans affect the amount of the formula allowance. Loss factors are based on our historical loss experience and such other data as management believes to be pertinent. Management, also, considers a variety of subjective factors, including regional economic and business conditions that impact important segments of our portfolio, loan growth rates, the depth and skill of lending staff, the interest rate environment, and the results of bank regulatory examinations and findings of our internal credit examiners to establish the formula allowance.

· Unallocated Allowance. The unallocated loan loss allowance represents an amount for imprecision or uncertainty that is inherent in estimates used to determine the allowance.

The Company also maintains a separate allowance for off-balance-sheet commitments. A reserve for unfunded commitments is maintained at a level that, in the opinion of management, is adequate to absorb probable losses associated with commitments to lend funds under existing agreements, for example, the Bank’s commitment to fund advances under lines of credit. The reserve amount for unfunded commitments is determined based on our methodologies described above with respect to the formula allowance. The allowance for off-balance-sheet commitments is included in accrued interest payable and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet and was $146,000, as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

For the three months ended March 31, 2014 there were no gross realized gains on sales or calls of available for sale securities. For the three months ended March 31, 2013 there were $543,000 in gross realized gains on sales or calls of available for sale securities. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 there were no gross realized losses on sales or calls of securities categorized as available for sale securities. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 there were $830,000 and $17,085,000, respectively, in gross proceeds from sales or calls of available for sale securities. There were no sales or transfers of held to maturity securities for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 there were no gross proceeds from maturities and calls of held to maturity securities. Expected maturities of all investment securities are consistent with those reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, securities having fair value amounts of approximately $265,554,000 and $272,092,000, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits, short-term borrowings, treasury tax and loan balances and for other purposes required by law or contract.

Investment securities are evaluated for other-than-temporary impairment on at least a quarterly basis and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation to determine whether a decline in their value below amortized cost is other-than-temporary.  Management utilizes criteria such as the magnitude and duration of the decline and the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issues for a period of time sufficient to allow for an anticipated recovery in fair value, in addition to the reasons underlying the decline, to determine whether the loss in value is other-than-temporary.  The term “other-than-temporary” is not intended to indicate that the decline is permanent, but indicates that the prospects for a near-term recovery of value is not necessarily favorable, or that there is a lack of evidence to support a realizable value equal to or greater than the carrying value of the investment.  Once a decline in value is determined to be other-than-temporary, and management does not intend to sell the security or it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell the security before recovery, only the portion of the impairment loss representing credit exposure is recognized as a charge to earnings, with the balance recognized as a charge to other comprehensive income. If management intends to sell the security or it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovering its forecasted cost, the entire impairment loss is recognized as a charge to earnings. For debt securities, the credit loss is defined as the difference between the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected and the amortized cost basis. For equity securities, the entire amount of impairment is recognized through earnings.

The following tables show gross unrealized losses and the estimated fair value of available-for-sale investment securities, aggregated by investment category, for investment securities that are in an unrealized loss position (in thousands). Unrealized losses for held-to-maturity investment securities during the same period were not significant.

As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were two corporate debt securities in a loss position for twelve months or more. There is a current active market for these securities and management believes that the unrealized losses on the Company’s investment in these corporate debt securities is due to the yield of the securities and is not attributable to changes in credit quality. The two corporate debt securities are each a $3,000,000 single-issuer trust preferred security issued by two separate large publicly-traded financial institutions. The securities are tied to the front-end of the yield curve, three-month LIBOR (a short-term interest rate) and have a spread over that rate. In addition, the payments on both of these securities have been made as agreed and are considered current. The Company does not intend to sell and does not believe it will be required to sell these securities and expects a full recovery of value. The Company did not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2014 or December 31, 2013.

Management periodically evaluates each investment security for other-than-temporary impairment, relying primarily on industry analyst reports, observation of market conditions and interest rate fluctuations. Management has the ability and intent to hold securities with established maturity dates until recovery of fair value, which may be at maturity, and believes it will be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms for all of the underlying investment securities; therefore, management does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of North Valley Bancorp and subsidiaries (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for annual financial statements are not included herein. Management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented have been included. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any subsequent period or for the year ending December 31, 2014.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries North Valley Bank, a California banking corporation (“NVB”) and North Valley Trading Company, a California corporation, which is inactive. Significant intercompany items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company owns the common stock of three business trusts that have issued trust preferred securities fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company. North Valley Capital Trust II, North Valley Capital Trust III and North Valley Capital Statutory Trust IV are unconsolidated subsidiaries and have issued an aggregate of $21,651,000 in trust preferred securities, which are reflected as debt on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Management has determined that since all of the banking products and services offered by the Company are available in each branch of NVB, all branches are located within the same economic environment and management does not allocate resources based on the performance of different lending or transaction activities, it is appropriate to aggregate NVB branches and report them as a single operating segment. No single customer accounts for more than ten percent of revenues for the Company or NVB.

As announced by the Company on January 21, 2014 and reported in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 22, 2014 (the "Current Report"), the Company has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization dated January 21, 2014 (the "Merger Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company would merge with and into TriCo Bancshares, a California corporation ("TriCo"), with TriCo being the surviving corporation. Immediately thereafter, the Company's subsidiary bank, North Valley Bank, would be merged with and into TriCo's subsidiary bank, Tri Counties Bank. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company shareholders would receive a fixed exchange ratio of 0.9433 shares of TriCo common stock for each share of Company common stock. Holders of the Company's outstanding in-the-money stock options would receive cash, net of applicable taxes withheld, for the value of their unexercised stock options. The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are expected to close in the third quarter of 2014, pending approvals of the Company shareholders and the TriCo shareholders, the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, and the satisfaction of other closing conditions which are customary for such transactions. For additional information, reference should be made to the text of the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, filed as an exhibit to the Current Report, and to other information regarding TriCo and the Company, their respective businesses and the status of their proposed merger, as reported from time to time in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is involved in legal actions arising from normal business activities. Management, based upon the advice of legal counsel, believes that the ultimate resolution of all pending legal actions will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of its operations or its cash flows.

On January 24, 2014, a putative shareholder class action lawsuit titled John Solak v. North Valley Bancorp, et al. was filed in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Shasta. TriCo Bancshares and all of the individuals serving as Directors of the Company are also named as defendants. The complaint alleges breach of fiduciary duty and aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization signed between the Company and TriCo Bancshares on January 21, 2014. The Company and the Directors have not yet responded to the complaint. The Company and its legal counsel believe the complaint’s claims are without merit. The resolution of this matter is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations, though no assurance can be given in this regard.

The Company was contingently liable under letters of credit issued on behalf of its customers in the amount of $4,417,000 and $4,557,000 at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. At March 31, 2014, commercial and consumer lines of credit and real estate loans of approximately $33,704,000 and $32,967,000, respectively, were undisbursed. At December 31, 2013, commercial and consumer lines of credit and real estate loans of approximately $38,683,000 and $35,264,000, respectively, were undisbursed. Approximately 87% of these undisbursed loan commitments are associated with variable rate loans.

Loan commitments are typically contingent upon the borrower meeting certain financial and other covenants and such commitments typically have fixed expiration dates and require payment of a fee. As many of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each potential borrower and the necessary collateral on an individual basis. Collateral varies, but may include real property, bank deposits, debt securities, equity securities or business or personal assets.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments written by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These guarantees are issued primarily relating to inventory purchases by the Company’s commercial customers and such guarantees are typically short term. Credit risk is similar to that involved in extending loan commitments to customers and the Company, accordingly, uses evaluation and collateral requirements similar to those for loan commitments. Virtually all of such commitments are collateralized. The fair value of the liability related to these standby letters of credit, which represents the fees received for issuing the guarantees, was not significant at March 31, 2014 and 2013. The Company recognizes these fees as revenues over the term of the commitment or when the commitment is used.

Loan commitments and standby letters of credit involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and market risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the balance sheet and do not necessarily represent the actual amount subject to credit loss. At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the reserve for unfunded commitments totaled $146,000.

In management’s opinion, a concentration exists in real estate-related loans which represent approximately 81% and 80% of the Company’s loan portfolio for periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. Although management believes such concentrations to have no more than the normal risk of collectibility, a continued substantial decline in the economy in general, or a continued decline in real estate values in the Company’s primary market areas in particular, could have an adverse impact on collectibility of these loans. However, personal and business income represents the primary source of repayment for a majority of these loans.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

12. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if options or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock.

There was no difference in the numerator used in the calculation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 (in thousands except earnings per share data):

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

5. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company groups its assets and liabilities measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:

• Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1): Inputs that are quoted unadjusted prices in active markets for identical assets that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. An active market for the asset is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

• Significant other observable inputs (Level 2): Inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for securities in inactive markets and inputs derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data by correlation or other means.

• Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3): Inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

Management monitors the availability of observable market data to assess the appropriate classification of financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in economic conditions or model-based valuation techniques may require the transfer of financial instruments from one fair value level to another. In such instances, the transfer is reported at the beginning of the reporting period.

Management evaluates the significance of transfers between levels based upon the nature of the financial instrument and size of the transfer relative to total assets, total liabilities or total earnings.

The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis (in thousands):

Impaired Loans - The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is generally based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available, and additional discounts by management for known market factors and time since the last appraisal. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.

Other Real Estate Owned – Nonrecurring adjustments to certain commercial and residential real estate properties classified as other real estate owned (OREO) are measured at fair value, less costs to sell. Fair values are based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may use a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

The following table presents quantitative information about level 3 fair value measurements for financial instruments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis (in thousands):

March 31, 2014	Fair Value		Valuation Techniques	Unobservable Inputs	Range(WeightedAverage)

Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair values presented represent the Company’s best estimate of fair value using the methodologies discussed below. The fair values of financial instruments which have a relatively short period of time between their origination and their expected realization were valued using historical cost. The values assigned do not necessarily represent amounts which ultimately may be realized. In addition, these values do not give effect to discounts to fair value which may occur when financial instruments are sold in larger quantities.

The following assumptions were used as of March 31, 2014 and 2013 to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value.

a) Cash and Due From Banks - The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values and are classified as Level 1.

b) Federal Funds Sold - The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values and are classified as Level 1.

c) Time Deposits at Other Financial Institutions - The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values and are classified as Level 2.

d) FHLB, FRB Stock and Other Securities - It was not practicable to determine the fair value of FHLB or FRB stock due to the restrictions placed on its transferability.

e) Investment Securities – The fair value of investment securities are based on quoted market prices, if available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value.

f) Loans - Commercial loans, residential mortgages, construction loans and direct financing leases are segmented by fixed and adjustable rate interest terms, by maturity, and by performing and nonperforming categories.

The fair values of performing loans are estimated as follows: For variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values resulting in a Level 3 classification. Fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality resulting in a Level 3 classification. Impaired loans are valued at the lower of cost or fair value as described previously. The methods utilized to estimate the fair value of loans do not necessarily represent an exit price.

The fair value of nonperforming loans is estimated by discounting estimated future cash flows using current interest rates with an additional risk adjustment reflecting the individual characteristics of the loans, or using the fair value of underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans as a practical expedient.

g) Deposits – The fair values disclosed for noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing demand deposits and savings and money market accounts are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amount) resulting in a Level 1 classification. Fair values for certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flows calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits resulting in a Level 2 classification.

h) Subordinated Debentures - The fair values of the Company’s subordinated debentures are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements resulting in a Level 3 classification.

i) Commitments to Fund Loans/Standby Letters of Credit - The fair values of commitments are estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. The differences between the carrying value of commitments to fund loans or standby letters of credit and their fair value are not significant and therefore not included in the following table.

j) Accrued Interest Receivable/Payable – The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value and therefore follow the same classification as the related asset or liability.

The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows (in thousands):

SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES

7. SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES

The Company owns the common stock of three business trusts that have issued an aggregate of $21.0 million in trust preferred securities that are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company. The entire proceeds of each respective issuance of trust preferred securities were invested by the separate business trusts into junior subordinated debentures issued by the Company, with identical maturity, repricing and payment terms as the respective issuance of trust preferred securities. The aggregate amount of junior subordinated debentures issued by the Company is $21.7 million, with the maturity dates for the respective debentures ranging from 2033 through 2036. Subject to regulatory approval, the Company may redeem the respective junior subordinated debentures earlier than the maturity date, with certain of the debentures being redeemable beginning in April 2008, July 2009 and March 2011.

The obligation to pay interest on the Debentures is cumulative and will continue to accrue, currently at a variable rate of 3.49% on the 2033 Debentures, variable rate of 3.04% on the 2034 Debentures and a variable rate of 1.56% on the 2036 Debentures.  Interest is generally set at variable rates based on the three-month LIBOR, reset and payable quarterly, plus 3.25% for the 2033 Debentures, plus 2.80% for the 2034 Debentures, and plus 1.33% for the 2036 Debentures. At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had recorded accrued and unpaid interest payments of $75,000 and $77,000, respectively.

The trust preferred securities issued by the trusts are currently included in Tier 1 capital in the amount of $21,000,000 for purposes of determining Leverage, Tier 1 and Total Risk-Based capital ratios for the year ending March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

INCOME TAXES

INCOME TAXES

8. INCOME TAXES

The Company files its income taxes on a consolidated basis with NVB. The allocation of income tax expense (benefit) represents each entity’s proportionate share of the consolidated provision for income taxes.

The Company applies the asset and liability method to account for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated by applying applicable tax laws to the differences between the financial statement basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. The effect on deferred taxes of changes in tax laws and rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. On the consolidated balance sheet, net deferred tax assets are included in other assets.

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes by recording only tax positions that met the more likely than not recognition threshold, that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination.

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained.  The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions.  Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, unrecognized tax benefits totaled $519,000.

Net deferred tax assets totaled $14,499,000 and $15,309,000 at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

10. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock Option Plans

At March 31, 2014, the Company had two shareholder approved stock-based compensation plans: the 1998 Employee Stock Incentive Plan and the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan. A total of 734,443 shares were authorized under all plans at March 31, 2014. The plans do not provide for the settlement of awards in cash and new shares are issued upon exercise of the options. The North Valley Bancorp 1998 Employee Stock Incentive Plan provides for awards in the form of options (which may constitute incentive stock options (“ISOs”) or non-statutory stock options (“NSOs”) to key employees) and also provides for the award of shares of Common Stock to outside directors. As provided in the 1998 Employee Stock Incentive Plan, the authorization to award incentive stock options terminated on February 19, 2008. Pursuant to the 1998 Employee Stock Incentive Plan there were outstanding options to purchase 47,718 shares of Common Stock at March 31, 2014. The North Valley Bancorp 2008 Stock Incentive Plan was adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors on February 27, 2008, effective that date, and was approved by the Company’s shareholders at the annual meeting, May 22, 2008. The terms of the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan are substantially the same as the North Valley Bancorp 1998 Employee Stock Incentive Plan. The 2008 Stock Incentive Plan provides for the grant to key employees of stock options, which may consist of NSOs and ISOs. Under the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan, options may not be granted at a price less than the fair market value at the date of the grant. Under all plans, options may be exercised over a ten year term. The vesting period is generally four years; however the vesting period can be modified at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors, and for all options granted after the fourth quarter in 2008 the vesting period is five years. The 2008 Stock Incentive Plan also provides for the grant to outside directors, and to consultants and advisers to the Company, of stock options, all of which must be NSOs. The shares of Common Stock authorized to be granted as options under the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan consist 686,725 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the terms of the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan, consisting of 302,780 shares to be issued upon the exercise of options granted and still outstanding as of that date, 5,580 shares issued as stock awards and 378,365 shares reserved for future stock option grants and director stock awards at March 31, 2014. Effective January 1, 2009, and on each January 1 thereafter for the remaining term of the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which are reserved for issuance pursuant to options granted under the terms of the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan shall be increased by a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 2% of the total number of the shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding at the end of the most recently concluded calendar year. Any shares of Common Stock that have been reserved but not issued as options during any calendar year shall remain available for grant during any subsequent calendar year outstanding options under the plans are exercisable until their expiration. Each outside director of the Company shall also be eligible to receive a stock award of 180 shares of Common Stock as part of his or her annual retainer paid by the Company for his or her services as a director. The number of shares of Common Stock available as stock awards to outside directors shall equal the number of shares of Common Stock to be awarded to such outside directors.

Stock-based Compensation

There were no options granted in the three month period ended March 31, 2014. There were 114,234 options granted for the three month period ended March 31, 2013. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the compensation cost recognized for share based compensation was $98,000 and $83,000, respectively. At March 31, 2014, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock-based awards granted to employees under the Company’s stock option plans was $1,306,000. This cost is expected to be amortized on a straight-line basis over a weighted average period of approximately 3.4 years and will be adjusted for subsequent changes in estimated forfeitures. The following table summarizes the weighted average grant date fair value of options granted for the three month period ended March 31, 2013, based on the following assumptions used in a Black-Scholes Merton model.

	For three months ended March 31,
	2014		2013
Weighted average grant date fair value per share of options granted		N/A	$	9.53
Significant weighted average assumptions used in calculating fair value:

Options expected to vest at March 31, 2014		177,636		$	13.89		8 years		$9.97-$16.80	$	1,828

The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying awards and the quoted price of the Company’s common stock as of March 31, 2014. There were no options exercised during the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.
