2nd Quarter 2009 Overview Michael M. Magee, President and Chief Executive Officer 3


 

2Q09: High-Level Overview 4 Foundation Remains Solid Core pre-tax, pre-provision earnings showed solid growth on a year-over-year and linked quarter basis TE net interest margin continued to expand - currently among best in the industry Regulatory capital remains above minimum to be "well capitalized" Challenging First-Half Environment Continued weakness in the Michigan economy adversely impacted results $27.8 million loan loss provision in 2Q09 driven primarily by significant declines in underlying collateral values Working with borrowers to identify best possible outcomes Operational Achievements Proactive efforts to manage our credits resulted in improvements in commercial non-performing loans and retail loan delinquency levels Linked-quarter NPA's declined for the first time in over three years We have made $629.0 million in loans (since the investment of CPP funds through 2Q09) Operational challenges Economic weakness likely to persist - sustained focus on fundamentals of community banking


 

2nd Quarter 2009 Financial Review Robert N. Shuster, Executive Vice President and CFO 5


 

2nd Quarter 2009 Recap 6 Net loss of $5.2 million and net loss applicable to common stock of $6.2 million or 26 cents per share Elevated provision for loan losses as well as other credit related costs (loss on ORE and loan and collection expenses) drove the loss Gain on securities ($4.2 million) and partial recovery of previously recorded impairment charges on capitalized mortgage loan servicing rights ($3.0 million) somewhat offset elevated credit costs Total assets up slightly at $2.98 billion Increase in total assets temporary, due to rise in loans held for sale Portfolio loans declined by $5.0 million (or 0.8% annualized) 2Q 2009 loan origination volume strong, mortgage loan origination volume rose to $196.9 million due to refinancing activity Deposits increased by $207.9 million and borrowings declined by $187.1 million due to liability duration extension program


 

2nd Quarter 2009 Recap (continued) 7 Positive Factors Growth in the TE net interest margin on both a year-over-year and sequential quarterly basis Growth in non-interest income on both a year-over-year and sequential quarterly basis due primarily to gains on mortgage loan sales, gains on securities and recovery of previously recorded impairment charges on capitalized MSR's Excluding the increases in loan and collection costs, loss on ORE and FDIC insurance, total non-interest expenses declined by about 1% on a year-over-year basis Company remains well capitalized Challenges Credit costs Weak Michigan economy Tangible common equity component of total capital


 

Valuation Allowance On Deferred Tax Asset 8 Current accounting impact Total net deferred tax asset of $43.7 million at 6/30/09. The associated valuation allowance is also $43.7 million at 6/30/09 (of which $36.2 million was established at 12/31/08). Income tax benefit of $0.959 million in 2Q 2009 relates to benefit associated with other comprehensive income that was partially offset by some state income taxes and some federal alternative minimum taxes. "More likely than not" accounting standard. 2009 and 2008 tax loss and tough operating environment. Potential future accounting implications In the near term neither pre-tax income or pre-tax losses will be tax effected (i.e. they will drop to the bottom line). The net deferred tax asset and related valuation allowance will continue to be evaluated quarterly. Asset is not lost, remains available to offset future taxable income. Total valuation allowance of $43.7 million equals $1.82 per common share.

Watch Credits Watch credits increased by $17 million and were flat compared to year end. Inflow of new watch credits up slightly from 1st quarter after consideration of lower charge offs. 28
