Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.	BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
	Business
	Organization: The consolidated financial statements of First Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries (the Corporation) include the parent company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, First Financial Bank, N.A. of Vigo County, Indiana, The Morris Plan Company of Terre Haute (Morris Plan), First Financial Reinsurance Company, a corporation incorporated in the country of Turks and Caicos Islands (FFRC) and Forrest Sherer Inc., a full-line insurance agency headquartered in Terre Haute, Indiana. Inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
	First Financial Bank also has two investment subsidiaries, Portfolio Management Specialists A (Specialists A) and Portfolio Management Specialists B (Specialists B), which were established to hold and manage certain assets as part of a strategy to better manage various income streams and provide opportunities for capital creation as needed. Specialists A and Specialists B subsequently entered into a limited partnership agreement, Global Portfolio Limited Partners. Portfolio Management Specialists B also owns First Financial Real Estate, LLC. At December 31, 2006, $461.4 million of securities and loans were owned by these subsidiaries. Specialists A, Specialists B, Global Portfolio Limited Partners and First Financial Real Estate LLC are included in the consolidated financial statements.
	The Corporation, which is headquartered in Terre Haute, Indiana, offers a wide variety of financial services including commercial, mortgage and consumer lending, lease financing, trust account services and depositor services through its four subsidiaries. The Corporation’s primary source of revenue is derived from loans to customers, primarily middle-income individuals, and investment activities.
	The Corporation operates 48 branches in west-central Indiana and east-central Illinois. First Financial Bank is the largest bank in Vigo County. It operates 12 full-service banking branches within the county; five in Clay County, Indiana; one in Greene County, Indiana; three in Knox County, Indiana; five in Parke County, Indiana; one in Putnam County, Indiana; five in Sullivan County, Indiana; four in Vermillion County, Indiana; one in Clark County, Illinois; one in Coles County, Illinois; three in Crawford County, Illinois; one in Jasper County, Illinois; two in Lawrence County, Illinois; two in Richland County, Illinois; one in Vermilion County, Illinois; and one in Wayne County, Illinois. It also has a main office in downtown Terre Haute and an operations center/office building in southern Terre Haute.
	Regulatory Agencies: First Financial Corporation is a multi-bank holding company and as such is regulated by various banking agencies. The holding company is regulated by the Seventh District of the Federal Reserve System. The national bank subsidiary is regulated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. The state bank subsidiary is jointly regulated by the state banking organization and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
	Significant Accounting Policies
	Use of Estimates: To prepare financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and disclosures provided, and actual results could differ. The allowance for loan losses, carrying value of intangible assets, loan servicing rights and the fair values of financial instruments are particularly subject to change.
	Cash Flows: Cash and cash equivalents include cash and demand deposits with other financial institutions. Net cash flows are reported for customer loan and deposit transactions and short-term borrowings.
	Securities: The Corporation classifies all securities as “available for sale.” Securities are classified as available for sale when they might be sold before maturity. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value with unrealized holdings gains and losses, net of taxes, reported in other comprehensive income within shareholders’ equity.
	Interest income includes amortization of purchase premium or discount. Premiums and discounts are amortized on the level yield method without anticipating prepayments. Mortgage-backed securities are amortized over the expected life. Realized gains and losses on sales are based on the amortized cost of the security sold. Declines in the fair value of securities below their cost that are other than temporary are reflected as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary losses, management considers: 1) the length of time and extent that fair value has been less than cost; 2) the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer; and 3) the Corporation’s ability and intent to hold the security for a period sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
	Loans: Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future until maturity or pay-off are reported at the principal balance outstanding, net of unearned interest, deferred loan fees and costs, and allowance for loan losses. Loans held for sale are reported at the lower of cost or market, on an aggregate basis.
	Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance and includes amortization of net deferred loan fees and costs over the loan term without anticipating prepayments. Interest income is not reported when full loan repayment is in doubt, typically when the loan is impaired or payments are significantly past due.
	All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on nonaccrual is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such 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. In all cases, loans are placed on non-accrual or charged-off if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.
	Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. 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. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values,

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

economic conditions and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off. The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired or loans otherwise classified as substandard or doubtful. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors.

A loan is impaired when full payment under the loan terms is not expected. Impairment is evaluated in total for smaller-balance loans of similar nature such as residential mortgages, consumer and credit card loans, and on an individual basis for other loans. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the allowance is allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows, using the loan’s existing rate, or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as consumer and residential real estate loans, are collectively evaluated for impairment and, accordingly, they are not separately identified for impairment disclosures.

Foreclosed Assets: Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosures are initially recorded at fair value when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. If fair value declines, a valuation allowance is recorded through expense. Costs after acquisition are expensed.

Premises and Equipment: Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed over the useful lives of the assets, which range from 3 to 33 years for furniture and equipment and 5 to 39 years for buildings and leasehold improvements.

Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) Stock: The Corporation is a member of the FHLB system. Members are required to own a certain amount of stock based on the level of borrowings and other factors, and may invest in additional amounts. FHLB stock is carried at cost and periodically evaluated for impairment. Because this stock is viewed as a long-term investment, impairment is based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both cash and stock dividends are reported as income. FHLB stock is included with securities.

Servicing Rights: Servicing rights are recognized as assets for the allocated value of retained servicing rights on loans sold. Servicing rights are expensed in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing revenues. Impairment is evaluated based on the fair value of the rights, using groupings of the underlying loans as to loan type and interest rate, and then secondarily as to loan type and investor. Any impairment of a grouping is reported as a valuation allowance.

Servicing fee income is recorded for fees earned for servicing loans. The fees are based on a contractual percentage of the outstanding principal or a fixed amount per loan and are recorded as income when earned. The amortization of mortgage servicing rights is netted against loan servicing fee income.

Bank-Owned Life Insurance: The Corporation has purchased life insurance policies on certain key executives. Bank-owned life insurance is recorded at its cash surrender value, or the amount that can be realized. Income on the investments in life insurance is included in other interest income.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets: Goodwill results from business acquisitions and represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of acquired tangible assets and liabilities and identifiable intangible assets. Goodwill is assessed at least annually for impairment and any such impairment will be recognized in the period identified.

Other intangible assets consist of core deposit and acquired customer relationship intangible assets arising from the whole bank, insurance agency and branch acquisitions. They are initially measured at fair value and then are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which are 12 and 10 years, respectively.

Long-Term Assets: Premises and equipment and other long-term assets are reviewed for impairment when events indicate their carrying amount may not be recoverable from future undiscounted cash flows. If impaired, the assets are recorded at fair value.

Benefit Plans: Pension expense is the net of service and interest cost, return on plan assets and amortization of gains and losses not immediately recognized. The amount contributed is determined by a formula as decided by the Board of Directors. Deferred compensation and supplemental retirement plan expense allocates the benefits over years of service.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan: Shares of treasury stock are issued to the ESOP and compensation expense is recognized based upon the total market price of shares when contributed.

Deferred Compensation Plan: A deferred compensation plan covers all directors. Under the plan, the Corporation pays each director, or their beneficiary, the amount of fees deferred plus interest over 10 years, beginning when the director achieves age 65. A liability is accrued for the obligation under these plans. The expense incurred for the deferred compensation for each of the last three years was $201 thousand, $164 thousand and $160 thousand, resulting in a deferred compensation liability of $2.2 million and $2.2 million as of year-end 2006 and 2005.

Long-Term Incentive Plan: A long-term incentive plan provides for the payment of incentive rewards as a 15-year annuity to all directors and certain key officers. The plan expires December 31, 2009, and compensation expense is recognized over the service period. Payments under the plan generally do not begin until the earlier of January 1, 2015, or the January 1 immediately following the year in which the participant reaches age 65. Compensation expense for each of the last three years was $1.7 million, $1.6 million and $1.5 million, resulting in a liability of $9.4 million and $7.8 million as of year-end 2006 and 2005.

Income Taxes: Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax amounts for the temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Loan Commitments and Related Financial Instruments: Financial instruments include credit instruments, such as commitments to make loans and standby letters of credit, issued to meet customer financing needs. The face amount for these items represents the exposure to loss, before considering customer collateral or ability to repay. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.

Earnings Per Share: Earnings per common share is net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Corporation does not have any potentially dilutive securities. Earnings and dividends per share are restated for stock splits and dividends through the date of issue of the financial statements.

Comprehensive Income: Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale, which are also recognized as separate components of equity.

Loss Contingencies: Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount of range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there are currently such matters that will have a material effect on the financial statements.

Dividend Restriction: Banking regulations require maintaining certain capital levels and may limit the dividends paid by the bank to the holding company or by the holding company to shareholders.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in a separate note. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Changes in assumptions or market conditions could significantly affect the estimates.

Operating Segment: While the Corporation’s chief decision-makers monitor the revenue streams of the various products and services, the operating results of significant segments are similar and operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a corporate-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the Corporation’s financial service operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment, which is banking.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards:

FASB Interpretation No. 48 — In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (FIN 48), which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Corporation has determined that the adoption of FIN 48 will not have a material effect on the financial statements.

SFAS No. 157 — In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement establishes a fair value hierarchy about the assumptions used to measure fair value and clarifies assumptions about risk and the effect of a restriction on the sale or use of an asset. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Corporation does not believe that the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have a material impact on the financial statements.

SFAS No. 158 — In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Post-retirement Plans” — an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R). This Statement requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit post-retirement plan (other than a multi-employer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in the funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. Defined benefit plan assets and obligations are to be measured as of the date of the employer’s fiscal year-end. The employer must disclose in the notes to the financial statements additional information about certain effects on net periodic benefit cost for the next fiscal year that arise from delayed recognition of gains and losses, prior service costs or credits, and transition asset or obligation. The new standard is effective for employers with publicly traded equity securities as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006. The adoption of this standard had no impact on our consolidated statement of income or cash flows. The adoption of this standard had the following impact on individual line items of our December 31, 2006 balance sheet:

	Before						After
	Application of						Application of
	SFAS No. 158			Adjustments			SFAS No. 158
Deferred tax assets	$	8,699		$	5,706		$	14,404

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

	SAB 108 — In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (SAB 108). SAB 108 provides interpretive guidance on how the effects of the carryover or reversal of prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying a potential current year misstatement. Prior to SAB 108, companies might evaluate the materiality of financial statement misstatements using either the income statement or balance sheet approach, with the income statement approach focusing on new misstatements added in the current year, and the balance sheet approach focusing on the cumulative amount of misstatement present in a company’s balance sheet. Misstatements that would be material under one approach can be viewed as immaterial under another approach, and not be corrected. SAB 108 now requires that companies view financial statement misstatements as material if they are material according to either the income statement or balance sheet approach. This statement is effective as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006. The adoption of SAB 108 had no effect on the Corporation’s financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006.
	Effect of Newly Issued But Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards — Other new accounting standards have been issued that the Corporation does not expect will have a material effect on the financial statements when adopted in future years or for which the Corporation has not yet completed its evaluation of the potential effect upon adoption. In general, these standards revise the accounting for derivatives embedded in other financial instruments for 2007, revise the recognition and accounting for servicing of financial assets for 2007, revise the accrual of post-retirement benefits associated with providing life insurance for 2008, and revise the accounting for cash surrender value for 2007.
	Reclassifications: Some items in prior year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
2.	FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:
	Carrying amount is the estimated fair value for cash and due from banks, federal funds sold, short-term borrowings, Federal Home Loan Bank stock, accrued interest receivable and payable, demand deposits, short-term debt and variable-rate loans or deposits that reprice frequently and fully. Security fair values are based on market prices or dealer quotes, and if no such information is available, on the rate and term of the security and information about the issuer. For fixed-rate loans or deposits, variable rate loans or deposits with infrequent repricing or repricing limits, and for longer-term borrowings, fair value is based on discounted cash flows using current market rates applied to the estimated life and credit risk. Fair values for impaired loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis or underlying collateral values. Fair value of debt is based on current rates for similar financing. The fair value of off-balance sheet items is not considered material.
	The carrying amount and estimated fair value of financial instruments are presented in the table below and were determined based on the above assumptions:

	December 31,
	2006						2005
	Carrying			Fair			Carrying			Fair

As of December 31, 2006, the Corporation does not have any securities from any issuer, other than the U.S. Government, with an aggregate book or fair value that exceeds ten percent of shareholders’ equity.

Securities with a carrying value of approximately $51.4 million and $54.7 million at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, were pledged as collateral for short-term borrowings and for other purposes.

Below is a summary of the gross gains and losses realized by the Corporation on investment sales during the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

(Dollar amounts in thousands)	2006		2005		2004
Proceeds		—	$	11,376	$	11,466
Gross gains		—		537		409
Gross losses		—		—		—

Additional gains of $6 thousand in 2006 and $34 thousand in 2005 resulted from redemption premiums on called securities.

The Corporation evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment on a quarterly basis. Factors considered include length of time impaired, reason for impairment, outlook and the Corporation’s ability to hold the investment to allow for recovery of fair value. There were no securities considered to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2006 or December 31, 2005. At December 31, 2004, the Corporation had one security that it considered to be other-than-temporarily impaired, and the Corporation wrote down the value of the investment by $621 thousand to its fair value and subsequently sold the security.

These losses represent negative adjustments to market value relative to the rate of interest paid on the securities and not losses related to the creditworthiness of the issuer. Management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future and believes the value will recover as the securities approach maturity or market rates change.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

	The Corporation’s subsidiary banks are members of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) and accordingly are permitted to obtain advances. The advances from the FHLB, aggregating $335.2 million at December 31, 2006, and $337.3 million at December 31, 2005, accrue interest, payable monthly, at annual rates, primarily fixed, varying from 4.9% to 6.6% in 2006 and 3.3% to 6.6% in 2005. The advances are due at various dates through August 2017. FHLB advances are, generally, due in full at maturity. They are secured by eligible securities totaling $197.5 million and $129.9 million at December 31, 2006 and 2005 and a blanket pledge on real estate loan collateral. Based on this collateral and the Corporation’s holdings of FHLB stock, the Corporation is eligible to borrow up to $437.5 million at year end 2006. Certain advances may be prepaid, without penalty, prior to maturity. The FHLB can adjust the interest rate from fixed to variable on certain advances, but those advances may then be prepaid, without penalty.
	The economic development revenue bonds (bonds) require periodic interest payments each year until maturity or redemption. The interest rate, which was 3.97% at December 31, 2006, and 3.58% at December 31, 2005, is determined by a formula which considers rates for comparable bonds and is adjusted periodically. The bonds are collateralized by a first mortgage on the Corporation’s headquarters building. The bonds mature December 1, 2015, but bondholders may periodically require earlier redemption.
	The debt agreement for the bonds requires the Corporation to meet certain financial covenants. These covenants require the Corporation to maintain a Tier I capital ratio of at least 6.2% and net income to average assets of 0.6%. At December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Corporation was in compliance with all of its debt covenants.
	The Corporation maintains a letter of credit with another financial institution, which could be used to repay the bonds, should they be called. The letter of credit expired November 1, 2006, and was automatically extended for one year. Assuming redemption will be funded by the letter of credit, or by other similar borrowings, there are no anticipated principal maturities of the bonds within the next five years.
12.	INCOME TAXES:
	Income tax expense is summarized as follows:

13.	FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK:
	The Corporation 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 conditional commitments and commercial letters of credit. The financial instruments involve to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of amounts recognized in the financial statements. The Corporation’s maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to make loans is limited generally by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Corporation follows the same credit policy to make such commitments as is followed for those loans recorded in the consolidated financial statements.
	Commitment and contingent liabilities are summarized as follows at December 31:

(Dollar amounts in thousands)	2006		2005
Home equity	$	38,205	$	32,338
Credit card lines		46,238		46,276
Commercial operating lines		159,630		150,462
Other commitments		51,018		43,034
	$	295,091	$	272,110
Commercial letters of credit		17,289		6,933

The majority of commercial operating lines and home equity lines are variable rate, while the majority of other commitments to fund loans are fixed rate. Since many commitments to make loans expire without being used, these amounts do not necessarily represent future cash commitments. Collateral obtained upon exercise of the commitment is determined using management’s credit evaluation of the borrower, and may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, land and other items. The approximate duration of these commitments is generally one year or less.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

14.	RETIREMENT PLANS:
	Substantially all employees of the Corporation are covered by a retirement program that consists of a defined benefit plan and an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP). Plan assets consist primarily of the Corporation’s stock and obligations of U.S. Government agencies. Benefits under the defined benefit plan are actuarially determined based on an employee’s service and compensation, as defined, and funded as necessary.
	Assets in the ESOP are considered in calculating the funding to the defined benefit plan required to provide such benefits. Any shortfall of benefits under the ESOP are to be provided by the defined benefit plan. The ESOP may provide benefits beyond those determined under the defined benefit plan. Contributions to the ESOP are determined by the Corporation’s Board of Directors. The Corporation made contributions to the defined benefit plan of $1.96 million, $1.41 million and $1.42 million in 2006, 2005 and 2004. The Corporation contributed $1.16 million, $1.14 million and $1.16 million to the ESOP in 2006, 2005 and 2004.
	The Corporation uses a measurement date of December 31, 2006.
	Net periodic benefit cost and other amounts recognized in other comprehensive income included the following components:

(Dollar amounts in thousands)	2006			2005			2004
Service cost — benefits earned	$	2,919		$	2,725		$	2,508
Interest cost on projected benefit obligation		2,328			2,451			2,168
Expected return on plan assets		(2,793	)		(3,285	)		(2,799	)
Net amortization and deferral		744			229			227
Total pension expense	$	3,198		$	2,120		$	2,104

The estimated net loss and prior service costs for the defined benefit pension plan that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income into net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal year are $468 thousand and $(18) thousand.

The following information sets forth the change in projected benefit obligation, reconciliation of plan assets, and the funded status of the Corporation’s retirement program. Actuarial present value of benefits is based on service to date and present pay levels.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Prior to the adoption of FAS Statement No. 158, amounts recognized in the balance sheet at December 31, 2005 consist of:

Prepaid benefit cost $ 6,003

Amounts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income at December 31, 2006 consist of:

Net loss (gain)	$	10,935
Prior service cost (credit)		(140	)
	$	10,795

The accumulated benefit obligation for the defined benefit pension plan was $42,152 and $34,206 at year-end 2006 and 2005.

Principal assumptions used:

Discount rate	5.50	%	5.75	%
Rate of increase in compensation levels	3.75		3.75
Expected long-term rate of return on plan assets	8.00		8.00

The expected long-term rate of return was estimated using market benchmarks for equities and bonds applied to the plan’s target asset allocation. Management estimated the rate by which plan assets would perform based on historical experience as adjusted for changes in asset allocations and expectations for future return on equities as compared to past periods.

Plan Assets — The Corporation’s pension plan weighted-average asset allocation for the years 2006 and 2005 by asset category are as follows:

							Pension Plan						ESOP
	Pension Plan			ESOP			Percentage of Plan						Percentage of Plan
	Target Allocation			Target Allocation			Assets at December 31,						Assets at December 31,
Asset Category	2007			2007			2006			2005			2006			2005
Equity securities		40-70	%		100-100	%		64	%		64	%		94	%		99	%
Debt securities		60-30			0-0			35			35			0			0
Other		0-0			0-0			1			1			6			1
Total								100	%		100	%		100	%		100	%

The investment objective for the retirement program is to maximize total return without exposure to undue risk. Asset allocation favors equities, with a target allocation of approximately 88%. This target includes the Corporation’s ESOP, which is 94% invested in corporate stock. Other investment allocations include fixed income securities and cash.

Equity securities include First Financial Corporation common stock in the amount of $17.0 million (57 percent of total plan assets) and $22.1 million (64 percent of total plan assets) at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan — The Corporation has established a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) for certain executive officers. The provisions of the SERP allow the Plan’s participants who are also participants in the Corporation’s defined benefit pension plan to receive supplemental retirement benefits to help recompense for benefits lost due to imposition of IRS limitations on benefits under the Corporation’s tax qualified defined benefit pension plan. Expenses related to the plan were $199 thousand in 2006 and $193 thousand in 2005. The SERP has expected benefit payments of $619 thousand after five years, which reflects expected future service. The plan is unfunded and has a measurement date of December 31.

The Corporation has $1.0 million and $674 thousand recognized in the balance sheet as a liability at December 31, 2006 and 2005. Amounts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income at December 31, 2006 consist of $165 thousand net gain and $370 thousand in prior service cost. The estimated loss and prior service costs for the SERP that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income into net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal year are $(17) thousand and $74 thousand.

The Corporation also provides medical benefits to its employees subsequent to their retirement. The Corporation uses a measurement date of December 31, 2006. Accrued post-retirement benefits as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 are as follows:

Prior to adoption of FAS Statement No. 158, amounts recognized in the balance sheet at December 31, 2005 consisted of an accrued benefit cost of $2.3 million. Amounts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income at December 31, 2006 consist of a net loss of $2.5 million and $422 thousand in transition obligation. The post-retirement benefits paid in 2006 and 2005 of $475 thousand and $388 thousand, respectively, were fully funded by company and participant contributions. There were no other changes to plan assets in 2006 and 2005.

The estimated net loss and transition obligation for the post-retirement benefit plan that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income into net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal year is $172 thousand and $60 thousand.

16.	REGULATORY MATTERS:
	The Corporation and its bank affiliates 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 financial statements.
	Further, the Corporation’s primary source of funds to pay dividends to shareholders is dividends from its subsidiary banks and compliance with these capital requirements can affect the ability of the Corporation and its banking affiliates to pay dividends. At December 31, 2006, approximately $21.5 million of undistributed earnings of the subsidiary banks, included in consolidated retained earnings, were available for distribution to the Corporation without regulatory approval.
	Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Corporation and Banks must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Corporation’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Corporation’s and Banks’ 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 Banks to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier I Capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier I Capital to average assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, that the Corporation meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.
	As of December 31, 2006, the most recent notification from the respective regulatory agencies categorized the subsidiary banks as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the banks must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the banks’ category.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on Financial Statements

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of First Financial Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of First Financial Corporation as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements 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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of First Financial Corporation as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of First Financial Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report, dated February 23, 2007, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of First Financial Corporation:

We have audited management’s assessment, included in the accompanying “Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting,” that First Financial Corporation (Corporation) maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on criteria established in “Internal Control—Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). First Financial Corporation’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

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 U.S. 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 U. S. 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, management’s assessment that First Financial Corporation maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on criteria established in “Internal Control—Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Also in our opinion, First Financial Corporation maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on criteria established in “Internal Control—Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006 of First Financial Corporation and our report dated February 23, 2007 expressed an unqualified opinion.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, as well as disclosures found elsewhere in this report are based upon First Financial Corporation’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Corporation to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and goodwill. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in the existing loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is increased by the provision for loan losses charged to expense and reduced by loans charged off, net of recoveries. The allowance for loan losses is determined based on management’s assessment of several factors: reviews and evaluations of specific loans, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and the related impact on segments of the loan portfolio, historical loan loss experience and the level of classified and nonperforming loans.

Loans are considered impaired if, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. When a loan is deemed impaired, impairment is measured by using the fair value of underlying collateral, the present value of the future cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate stipulated in the loan agreement, or the estimated market value of the loan. In measuring the fair value of the collateral, management uses assumptions (e.g., discount rate) and methodologies (e.g., comparison to the recent selling price of similar assets) consistent with those that would be utilized by unrelated third parties.

Changes in the financial condition of individual borrowers, economic conditions, historical loss experience, or the condition of the various markets in which collateral may be sold may affect the required level of the allowance for loan losses and the associated provision for loan losses. Should cash flow assumptions or market conditions change, a different amount may be recorded for the allowance for loan losses and the associated provision for loan losses.

Goodwill. The carrying value of goodwill requires management to use estimates and assumptions about the fair value of the reporting unit compared to its book value. An impairment analysis is prepared on an annual basis. Fair values of the reporting units are determined by an analysis which considers cash flows streams, profitability and estimated market values of the reporting unit. The majority of the Corporation’s goodwill is recorded at Forest Sherer, Inc.

Management believes the accounting estimates related to the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of goodwill are “critical accounting estimates” because: (1) the estimates are highly susceptible to change from period to period because they require management to make assumptions concerning, among other factors, the changes in the types and volumes of the portfolios, valuation assumptions, and economic conditions, and (2) the impact of recognizing an impairment or loan loss could have a material effect on the Corporation’s assets reported on the balance sheet as well as net income.

Results of Operations — Summary for 2006

Net income for 2006 was $23.5 million, or $1.77 per share. This represents a 2.1% increase in net income and a 2.9% increase in earnings per share, compared to 2005. Return on assets at December 31, 2006 increased 2.8% to 1.10% compared to 1.07% at December 31, 2005.

NET INTEREST INCOME

The principal source of the Corporation’s earnings is net interest income, which represents the difference between interest earned on loans and investments and the interest cost associated with deposits and other sources of funding. Net interest income declined slightly in 2006 at $73.7 million compared to $74.2 million in 2005. Total average interest-earning assets remained at $2.01 billion in 2006, which was unchanged from 2005. The tax equivalent yield on these assets increased to 6.77% in 2006 from 6.28% in 2005. Total average interest-bearing liabilities of $1.71 billion in 2005 decreased to $1.64 billion in 2006. The average cost of these interest-bearing liabilities increased to 3.48% in 2006 from 2.77% in 2005.

The net interest margin increased slightly from 3.92% in 2005 to 3.93% in 2006. This increase was primarily the result of increased funding provided by non-interest bearing liabilities. Earning asset yields increased 49 basis points while the rate on interest-bearing liabilities increased by 71 basis points.

The following table sets forth the components of net interest income due to changes in volume and rate. The table information compares 2006 to 2005 and 2005 to 2004.

Results of Operations — Summary for 2006

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

The provision for loan losses charged to expense is based upon credit loss experience and the results of a detailed analysis estimating an appropriate and adequate allowance for loan losses. The analysis includes the evaluation of impaired loans as prescribed under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) Nos. 114 and 118, pooled loans as prescribed under SFAS No. 5, and economic and other risk factors as outlined in various Joint Interagency Statements issued by the bank regulatory agencies. For the year ended December 31, 2006, the provision for loan losses was $7.0 million, an decrease of $4.7 million, or 40.3%, compared to 2005. The decrease was the result of several components related to the analysis of the Corporation’s Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses.

Net charge-offs for 2006 were $6.8 million as compared to $15.6 million for 2005. Credit quality concerns were addressed in 2005 and reduced charge-offs and lower provision for loan losses were experienced in 2006. At December 31, 2006, the resulting allowance for loan losses was $16.2 million or 1.16% of total loans, net of unearned income. A year earlier the allowance was $16.0 million or 1.15% of total loans.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

Non-interest income of $28.8 million decreased $3.2 million from the $32.0 million earned in 2005. Over half of this decrease was in lower gains on sales of mortgages and investment securities. Reduced loan demand also resulted in lower fee income associated with lending.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSES

Non-interest expenses totaled $64.7 million for 2006 compared to $63.5 million for 2005. Salaries and employee benefits increased $1.1 million or 2.9%. During 2006 First Financial Bank opened two new banking centers. Occupancy expense increased 5.2% or $198 thousand while equipment expense increased by $444 thousand. All other expenses decreased to $16.6 million from $17.3 million in 2005.

INCOME TAXES

The Corporation’s federal income tax provision was $7.4 million in 2006 compared to a provision of $7.9 million in 2005. The overall effective tax rate in 2005 of 25.6% compares to a 2006 effective rate of 23.8%.

COMPARISON OF 2005 TO 2004

Net income for 2005 was $23.1 million or $1.72 per share compared to $28.0 million in 2004 or $2.07 per share. This decreased income was primarily the result of increased non-interest income in 2004 as a result of a gain on life insurance benefit of $4.1 million. Total average interest-earning assets decreased $25.9 million in 2005 from $2.04 billion in 2004. The tax equivalent net interest margin increased to 3.92% in 2005 from 3.81% in 2004. This increase is primarily the result of funding costs increasing at a slower rate than the yield on earning assets.

The provision for loan losses increased $3.4 million from $8.3 million in 2004 to $11.7 million in 2005, and net charge-offs increased $6.0 million from $9.6 million in 2004 to $15.6 million in 2005.

Net non-interest income and expense declined $3.6 million from 2004 to 2005. Non-interest expenses decreased $118 thousand while non-interest income decreased $3.7 million. The decrease in non-interest income was the result of the gain on life insurance benefit of $4.1 million realized in 2004.

The provision for income taxes fell $86 thousand from 2004 to 2005, increasing the effective tax rate from 22.2% in 2004 to 25.6% in 2005. This increase in the effective tax rate was the result of the increased in non-taxable income from the gain on life insurance benefit realized in 2004. Without this gain the effective tax rate would have been 25.1% in 2004.

37

Financial Condition — Summary

The Corporation’s total assets increased 1.8% or $39.1 million at December 31, 2006, from a year earlier. Available-for-sale securities increased $22.8 million at December 31, 2006, from the previous year. Loans, net of unearned income, decreased by $3.0 million, to $1.39 billion. Deposits increased $37.8 million while borrowings decreased by $12.1 million.

Total shareholders’ equity increased $1.9 million to $271.3 million at December 31, 2006. Net income was partially offset by higher dividends and the continued repurchase of corporate stock. The Corporation had lower purchases of treasury stock in 2006, acquiring 137,249 shares at a cost of $4.1 million compared to 203,700 shares during 2005 at a cost of $5.8 million. There were also 34,000 shares from the treasury with a value of $1.16 million that were contributed to the ESOP plan. Restructuring of the investment portfolio with maturities and purchases increased the other comprehensive income as the Corporation recorded a net unrealized gain on available-for-sale securities of $1.2 million. While the fluctuation in fair value decreased shareholders’ equity, no loss is recognized in net income unless the security is actually sold or considered to be other-than-temporarily impaired. The accumulated other comprehensive income was also reduced with the adoption of SFAS No. 158 and the recording of unfunded post-retirement benefit costs.

Following is an analysis of the components of the Corporation’s balance sheet.

SECURITIES

The Corporation’s investment strategy seeks to maximize income from the investment portfolio while using it as a risk management tool and ensuring safety of principal and capital. During 2006 the portfolio’s balance increased by 4.24%. During 2006 the Federal Reserve increased the fed funds rate by 1.00% to 5.25%. The average life of the portfolio was extended from 4.36 years in 2005 to 4.38 years in 2006. The portfolio structure will continue to provide cash flows to be reinvested during 2007.

The allowance is maintained at an amount management believes sufficient to absorb probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. Monitoring loan quality and maintaining an adequate allowance is an ongoing process overseen by senior management and the loan review function. On at least a quarterly basis, a formal analysis of the adequacy of the allowance is prepared and reviewed by management and the Board of Directors. This analysis serves as a point in time assessment of the level of the allowance and serves as a basis for provisions for loan losses. The loan quality monitoring process includes assigning loan grades and the use of a watch list to identify loans of concern.

The analysis of the allowance for loan losses includes the allocation of specific amounts of the allowance to individual problem loans, generally based on an analysis of the collateral securing those loans. Portions of the allowance are also allocated to loan portfolios, based upon a variety of factors including historical loss experience, trends in the type and volume of the loan portfolios, trends in delinquent and non-performing loans, and economic trends affecting our market. These components are added together and compared to the balance of our allowance at the evaluation date. The following table presents the allocation of the allowance to the loan portfolios at year-end.

NONPERFORMING LOANS

Management monitors the components and status of nonperforming loans as a part of the evaluation procedures used in determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. It is the Corporation’s policy to discontinue the accrual of interest on loans where, in management’s opinion, serious doubt exists as to collectibility. The amounts shown below represent non-accrual loans, loans which have been restructured to provide for a reduction or deferral of interest or principal because of deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower and those loans which are past due more than 90 days where the Corporation continues to accrue interest.

Financial Condition — Summary

OTHER BORROWINGS

Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank decreased to $335.2 million in 2006 compared to $337.3 million in 2005. The Asset/Liability Committee reviews these investments and funding sources and considers the related strategies on a weekly basis. See Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity below for more information.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

Bank regulatory agencies have established capital adequacy standards which are used extensively in their monitoring and control of the industry. These standards relate capital to level of risk by assigning different weightings to assets and certain off-balance-sheet activity. As shown in the footnote to the consolidated financial statements (“Regulatory Matters”), the Corporation’s capital exceeds the requirements to be considered well capitalized at December 31, 2006.

First Financial Corporation’s objective continues to be to maintain adequate capital to merit the confidence of its customers and shareholders. To warrant this confidence, the Corporation’s management maintains a capital position which they believe is sufficient to absorb unforeseen financial shocks without unnecessarily restricting dividends to its shareholders. The Corporation’s dividend payout ratio for 2006 and 2005 was 44.2% and 47.6%, respectively. The Corporation expects to continue its policy of paying regular cash dividends, subject to future earnings and regulatory restrictions and capital requirements.

INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY AND LIQUIDITY

First Financial Corporation has established risk measures, limits and policy guidelines for managing interest rate risk and liquidity. Responsibility for management of these functions resides with the Asset Liability Committee. The primary goal of the Asset Liability Committee is to maximize net interest income within the interest rate risk limits approved by the Board of Directors.

Interest Rate Risk: Management considers interest rate risk to be the Corporation’s most significant market risk. Interest rate risk is the exposure to changes in net interest income as a result of changes in interest rates. Consistency in the Corporation’s net interest income is largely dependent on the effective management of this risk.

The Asset Liability position is measured using sophisticated risk management tools, including earnings simulation and market value of equity sensitivity analysis. These tools allow management to quantify and monitor both short-and long-term exposure to interest rate risk. Simulation modeling measures the effects of changes in interest rates, changes in the shape of the yield curve and the effects of embedded options on net interest income. This measure projects earnings in the various environments over the next three years. It is important to note that measures of interest rate risk have limitations and are dependent on various assumptions. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the model cannot precisely predict the impact of interest rate fluctuations on net interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, frequency and amount of interest rate changes as well as overall market conditions. The Committee has performed a thorough analysis of these assumptions and believes them to be valid and theoretically sound. These assumptions are continuously monitored for behavioral changes.

The Corporation from time to time utilizes derivatives to manage interest rate risk. Management continuously evaluates the merits of such interest rate risk products but does not anticipate the use of such products to become a major part of the Corporation’s risk management strategy.

The table on the following page shows the Corporation’s estimated sensitivity profile as of December 31, 2006. The change in interest rates assumes a parallel shift in interest rates of 100 and 200 basis points. Given a 100 basis point increase in rates, net interest income would decrease 3.14% over the next 12 months and decrease .60% over the following 12 months. Given a 100 basis point decrease in rates, net interest income would decrease .07% over the next 12 months and decrease 2.65% over the following 12 months. These estimates assume all rate changes occur overnight and management takes no action as a result of this change.

Financial Condition — Summary

Basis Point	Percentage Change in Net Interest Income
Interest Rate Change	12 months			24 months			36 months
Down 200		-0.52	%		-6.20	%		-12.09	%
Down 100		-0.07			-2.65			-5.47
Up 100		-3.14			-0.60			2.62
Up 200		-8.40			-3.62			2.71

Typical rate shock analysis does not reflect management’s ability to react and thereby reduce the effects of rate changes, and represents a worst-case scenario.

Liquidity Risk: Liquidity is measured by the bank’s ability to raise funds to meet the obligations of its customers, including deposit withdrawals and credit needs. This is accomplished primarily by maintaining sufficient liquid assets in the form of investment securities and core deposits. The Corporation has $5.8 million of investments that mature throughout the coming 12 months. The Corporation also anticipates $69.4 million of principal payments from mortgage-backed securities. Given the current rate environment, the Corporation anticipates $18.5 million in securities to be called within the next 12 months.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS, COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Corporation has various financial obligations, including contractual obligations and commitments, that may require future cash payments.

Contractual Obligations: The following table presents, as of December 31, 2006, significant fixed and determinable contractual obligations to third parties by payment date. Further discussion of the nature of each obligation is included in the referenced note to the consolidated financial statements.

Other borrowings		11		6,957		75,719		258,111		1,018		341,805

Commitments: The following table details the amount and expected maturities of significant commitments as of December 31, 2006. Further discussion of these commitments is included in Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements.

	Total Amount		One Year		Over One
(Dollar amounts in thousands)	Committed		or Less		Year
Commitments to extend credit:
Unused loan commitments	$	295,091	$	177,019	$	118,072
Commercial letters of credit		17,289		13,642		3,647

Commitments to extend credit, including loan commitments, standby and commercial letters of credit do not necessarily represent future cash requirements, in that these commitments often expire without being drawn upon.

OUTLOOK

The Corporation’s primary market is west-central Indiana and east-central Illinois. Typically, this market does not expand or contract at rates that are experienced by both the state and national economies. This area continues to be driven primarily by the retail, higher education and health care industries. During 2006 most of the Corporation’s markets experienced improved labor market conditions. There are limited significant growth opportunities currently available.
