Goodwill is reviewed annually for impairment. Old National completed its most recent annual goodwill impairment test as of August 31, 2011 and determined that no impairment existed as of this date. Old National recorded $68.4 million of goodwill in the first quarter of 2011 associated with the acquisition of Monroe Bancorp, of which $67.5 million was allocated to the "Community Banking" segment and $0.9 million to the "Other" segment. Old National recorded $16.9 million of goodwill in the third quarter of 2011 associated with the acquisition of Integra Bank, all of which was allocated to the "Community Banking" segment.

Other intangible assets consist of core deposit intangibles and customer relationship intangibles and are being amortized primarily on an accelerated basis over their estimated useful lives, generally over a period of 5 to 25 years. During the first quarter of 2011, Old National recorded $8.2 million of core deposit intangibles associated with the acquisition of Monroe Bancorp, which is included in the "Community Banking" segment. During the first quarter of 2011, Old National also recorded $2.3 million of customer relationship intangibles associated with the trust business of Monroe Bancorp, which is included in the "Other" segment. During the second quarter of 2011, Old National recorded $1.3 million of customer relationship intangibles associated with the trust business of Integra Wealth Management and Trust, which is included in the "Other" segment. During the second quarter of 2011, Old National reduced customer business relationships by $0.1 million related to the sale of an insurance book of business, which is included in the "Community Banking" segment. During the third quarter of 2011, Old National recorded $4.3 million of core deposit intangibles associated with the acquisition of Integra Bank, which is included in the "Community Banking" segment. During the fourth quarter of 2011, Old National recorded $0.3 million of customer business relationships associated with the purchase of an insurance book of business and took accelerated amortization of $0.7 million on its core deposit intangible related to the sale of the former Chicago-area Integra

branches. See Note 23 to the consolidated financial statements for a description of the Company's operating segments.

Old National reviews other intangible assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Old National recorded an impairment charge of $0.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2009. The charge related to a book of business held by one of the Company's insurance subsidiaries which experienced the loss of two significant customers. The insurance subsidiary is included in the "Other" column for segment reporting. Total amortization expense including impairment charges associated with intangible assets was $8.8 million in 2011, $6.1 million in 2010 and $6.5 million in 2009.

Estimated amortization expense for the future years is as follows:


		Estimated

2013		6,450
2014		5,225
