PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

General

The First of Long Island Corporation (the “Registrant” or the “Corporation”), a one-bank holding company, was incorporated on February 7, 1984 for the purpose of providing financial services through its wholly-owned subsidiary, The First National Bank of Long Island (the “Bank”).

The Bank was organized in 1927 as a national banking association under the laws of the United States of America and was known as The First National Bank of Glen Head through June 30, 1978. The Bank has an Investment Management Division that provides investment management, pension trust, personal trust, estate, and custody services. The Bank organized a wholly-owned subsidiary, The First of Long Island Agency, Inc. (the “Agency”), as a licensed insurance agency under the laws of the State of New York. The Agency sells mutual funds and annuities to customers of the Bank. Such products are made available through a third party provider. The Bank has one other wholly-owned subsidiary, FNY Service Corp., an investment company, which has one wholly-owned subsidiary, The First of Long Island REIT, Inc., a real estate investment trust.

All of the financial operations of the Corporation are considered to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment. All revenues are attributed to and all long-lived assets are located in the United States.

The Bank has historically served the financial needs of privately owned businesses, professionals, consumers, public bodies, and other organizations primarily in Nassau and Suffolk Counties, Long Island. However, the Bank has three commercial banking branches in Manhattan and may open additional Manhattan branches in the future.

The principal business of the Bank has historically consisted of attracting business and consumer checking deposits, money market deposits, time deposits and savings deposits and investing those funds in commercial and residential mortgage loans, commercial loans, home equity loans, and investment securities. The Corporation’s loan portfolio is currently primarily comprised of loans to borrowers in Nassau and Suffolk Counties and New York City, and its real estate loans are principally secured by properties located in those geographic areas.

The Bank’s investment securities portfolio is primarily comprised of U.S. government agency securities (including pass-through mortgage-backed securities), collateralized mortgage obligations, and state and municipal securities. The Bank also regularly sells federal funds on an overnight basis to a number of banking institutions.

The Bank offers a variety of deposit products having a wide range of interest rates and terms. The principal products include checking accounts, money market accounts, savings accounts, escrow service and IOLA (interest on lawyer) accounts, time deposit accounts and IRA accounts.

In addition to its loan and deposit products, the Bank offers other services to its customers including the following:


•	Account Reconciliation Services

•	ATM Banking

•	Bank by Mail

•	Bill Payment Using PC or Telephone Banking

•	Cash Management Services

•	Collection Services

•	Controlled Disbursement Accounts

•	Counter Checks

•	Drive-Through Banking

•	Gift Checks and Personal Money Orders

•	Internet PC Banking

•	Merchant Credit Card Depository Services

•	Lock Box Services

•	Night Depository Services

•	Payroll Services

•	Remote Deposit

•	Safe Deposit Boxes

•	Securities Transactions

•	Signature Guarantee Services

•	Telephone Banking

•	Travelers Checks

•	Trust and Investment Management Services

•	U.S. Savings Bonds

•	Wire Transfers and Foreign Cables

•	Withholding Tax Depository Services

The Bank has a main office located in Glen Head, New York, eleven other full service offices (Garden City, Greenvale, Huntington, Locust Valley, Merrick, Northport, Northport Village, Old Brookville, Rockville Centre, Roslyn Heights, Woodbury), twelve commercial banking offices (Bohemia, Deer Park, two in Farmingdale, Great Neck, Hauppauge, Hicksville, three in Manhattan, New Hyde Park, Valley Stream), and two Select Service Banking Centers (Lake Success, Smithtown) which serve the needs of both businesses and affluent consumers. The Bank’s newest office is the full service office in Northport Village, New York, which was opened in the fourth quarter of 2007. The Bank will open a full service office in Babylon, Long Island in 2008 and continues to evaluate potential new branch sites both on Long Island and in Manhattan.

The Bank’s revenues are derived principally from interest on loans, interest on investment securities, service charges and fees on deposit accounts, and income from trust and investment management services.

The Bank did not commence, abandon, or significantly change any of its lines of business during 2007.

The Bank encounters substantial competition in its banking business from numerous other banking corporations which have offices located in the communities served by the Bank. Principal competitors are branches of larger banks, such as Citibank, JPMorgan Chase, Capital One, and Commerce Bank, various community banks on Long Island and in Manhattan, mortgage brokers, brokerage firms and credit unions.

Lending Activities

General. The Bank’s lending is subject to written underwriting standards and loan origination procedures, as approved by the Bank’s Board of Directors and contained in the Bank’s loan policies. The loan policies allow for exceptions and set forth specific exception approval requirements. Decisions on loan applications are based on, among other things, the borrower’s credit history, the financial strength of the borrower, estimates of the borrower’s ability to repay the loan, and the value of the collateral, if any. All real estate appraisals must meet the requirements of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989.

The Bank primarily conducts its lending activities out of its main office in Glen Head, NY, its Nassau County regional lending office in Garden City, NY and its Suffolk County regional lending office in Hauppauge, NY. The Bank’s loan portfolio is currently primarily comprised of loans to small and medium-sized privately owned businesses, professionals, and consumers in Nassau and Suffolk Counties. The Bank offers a full range of lending services including commercial and residential mortgage loans, home equity loans and lines, commercial loans, construction loans, consumer loans, and commercial and standby letters of credit. Commercial loans include, among other things, short-term business loans; term and installment loans; revolving credit term loans; and loans secured by marketable securities, the cash surrender value of life insurance policies, deposit accounts, or general business assets. Consumer loans include, among other things, auto loans, unsecured home improvement loans, secured and unsecured personal loans, overdraft checking lines, and VISA^® credit cards.

The Bank makes both fixed and variable rate loans. Variable rate loans are primarily tied to and reprice with changes in the prime interest rate of the Bank, the prime interest rate as published in The Wall Street Journal, U.S. Treasury rates, or the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York regular fixed advance rates. Commercial and residential mortgage loans are made with terms usually not in excess of thirty years. Fixed rate residential mortgage loans with terms greater than fifteen years are generally not maintained in the Bank’s portfolio. Commercial loans generally mature within five years, and consumer loans and home equity lines generally mature within ten years. The Bank’s usual practice is to lend no more than 65% to 75% of appraised value on residential mortgage loans, 65% on home equity lines, 70% to 75% on fixed rate home equity loans, and 70% to 75% on commercial mortgage loans. The lending limitations with regard to appraised value for loans on co-ops and condominiums are more stringent.

The risks inherent in the Bank’s loan portfolio primarily stem from the following factors relating to borrower size, geographic concentration, real estate values and environmental contamination: first, loans to small and medium-sized businesses sometimes involve a higher degree of risk than those to larger companies because such businesses may have shorter operating histories and higher debt-to-equity ratios than larger companies and may lack sophistication in internal record keeping and financial and operational controls; second, the ability of many of the Bank’s borrowers to repay their loans may be dependent on the strength of the local economy; and finally, if it becomes necessary to foreclose a loan secured by real estate, the ability of the Bank to fully realize its investment is dependent on, among other things, the strength of the local real estate market and the condition of the property including the absence of environmental contamination. The Bank does not have any significant industry concentrations or any foreign loans.

Loans in excess of $300,000 up to and including $5,000,000 require the approval of the Management Loan Committee. Loans in excess of $5,000,000 up to and including $7,500,000 also require the approval of two non-management members of the Board Loan Committee. Loans in excess of $7,500,000 require the recommendation of the Management Loan Committee and the approval of a majority of the Board of Directors.

The composition of the Bank’s loan portfolio is set forth below.

Commercial and Industrial Loans. The Bank makes commercial loans on a demand basis, short-term basis, or installment basis. Short-term business loans are generally due and payable within one year and should be self liquidating during the normal course of the borrower’s business cycle. Term and installment loans are usually due and payable within five years. Generally, it is the policy of the Bank to obtain personal guarantees of principal owners on loans made to privately-owned businesses. Maturity and rate information for the Bank’s commercial and industrial loans is set forth below.

	$	35,912	$	12,408	$	12,997	$	61,317

Real Estate Mortgage and Home Equity Loans and Lines. The Bank makes residential and commercial mortgage loans and home equity loans and establishes home equity lines of credit. Applicants for residential mortgage loans and home equity loans and lines will be considered for approval provided they have satisfactory credit history and collateral and the Bank believes that there is sufficient monthly income to service both the loan or line applied for and existing debt. Applicants for commercial mortgage loans will be considered for approval provided they, as well as any guarantors, generally have satisfactory credit history and can demonstrate, through financial statements and otherwise, the ability to repay. If the source of repayment is rental income, such income must almost always be more than sufficient to amortize the debt.

In processing requests for commercial mortgage loans, the Bank almost always requires an environmental assessment to identify the possibility of environmental contamination. The extent of the assessment procedures varies from property to property and is based on factors such as whether or not the subject property is an industrial building or has a suspected environmental risk based on current or past use.

Construction Loans. The Bank makes loans to finance the construction of both residential and commercial properties. The maturity of such loans is generally one year or less and advances are made as the construction progresses. The advances can require the submission of bills by the contractor, verification by a Bank-approved inspector that the work has been performed, and title insurance updates to ensure that no intervening liens have been placed.

Consumer Loans and Lines. The Bank makes auto loans, home improvement loans, and other consumer loans, establishes revolving overdraft lines of credit, and issues VISA^® credit cards. Consumer loans and lines may be secured or unsecured. Consumer loans are generally made on an installment basis over terms not in excess of five years. In reviewing loans and lines for approval, the Bank considers, among other things, ability to repay, stability of employment and residence, and past credit history.

Past Due, Nonaccrual, and Restructured Loans. Selected information about the Bank’s past due, nonaccrual, and restructured loans can be found in the section of the Corporation’s 2007 Annual Report to Shareholders entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” which has been incorporated by reference into Item 7 of this Form 10-K.

The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued when principal or interest payments become past due 90 days or more unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection. As of December 31, 2007, the Bank did not have any impaired loans or material potential problem loans except for the loans disclosed in “Note C - Loans” to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements which have been incorporated by reference into Item 8 of this Form 10-K.

Economic conditions in the Bank’s market area have been favorable in recent years. Future levels of impaired and other potential problem loans will be affected by the strength of the local economy.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is established through provisions for loan losses charged against income and reductions in the allowance are credited to income. Amounts deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loan losses, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The allowance for loan losses is an amount that management currently believes will be adequate to absorb probable incurred losses in the Bank’s loan portfolio. The process for estimating credit losses and determining the allowance for loan losses as of any balance sheet date is subjective in nature and requires material estimates. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

In determining the allowance for loan losses, there is not an exact amount but rather a range for what constitutes an appropriate allowance. In estimating losses the Bank reviews individual credits in its portfolio and, for those loans deemed to be impaired, measures impairment losses based on either the fair value of collateral or the discounted value of expected future cash flows. Estimated losses for loans that are not specifically reviewed are determined on a pooled basis using the Bank’s historical loss experience adjusted to reflect current conditions. In adjusting historical loss experience, management considers a variety of factors

including levels of and trends in delinquencies and nonaccruing loans; trends in volume and terms of loans; changes in lending policies and procedures; experience, ability and depth of lending staff; national and local economic conditions; concentrations of credit; and environmental risks. The allowance for loan losses is comprised of impairment losses on the loans specifically reviewed plus estimated losses on the pools of loans that are not specifically reviewed.

Changes in the Bank’s allowance for loan losses for each of the five years in the period ended December 31, 2007 and the allocation of the Bank’s allowance for loan losses by loan type at the end of each of these years can be found in the section of the Corporation’s 2007 Annual Report to Shareholders entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” which has been incorporated by reference into Item 7 of this Form 10-K.

The amount of future chargeoffs and provisions for loan losses will be affected by, among other things, economic conditions on Long Island. Such conditions could affect the financial strength of the Bank’s borrowers and do affect the value of real estate collateral securing the Bank’s mortgage loans. Loans secured by real estate represent approximately 87% of the Bank’s total loans outstanding at December 31, 2007. Most of these loans were made to borrowers domiciled on Long Island and in New York City and are secured by Long Island and New York City properties. Local economic conditions have been good and real estate values have grown considerably over a number of years. However, in 2007 residential real estate values on Long Island began to decline. The decline could continue and economic conditions could deteriorate. If this occurs, and the decline and deterioration are substantial, some of the Bank’s borrowers may be unable to make the required contractual payments on their loans, and the Bank may be unable to realize the full carrying value of such loans through foreclosure. However, management believes that the Bank’s underwriting policies are relatively conservative and, as a result, the Bank should be less affected than the overall market.

Investment Activities

General. The investment policy of the Bank, as approved by the Board of Directors and supervised by both the Board and the Management Investment Committee, is intended to promote investment practices which are both safe and sound and in full compliance with applicable regulations. Investment authority will be granted and amended as is necessary by the Board of Directors.

The Bank’s investment decisions seek to maximize income while keeping both credit and interest rate risk at acceptable levels, provide for the Bank’s liquidity needs, and provide securities that can be pledged, as needed, to secure deposits and/or borrowings.

The Bank’s investment policy generally limits individual maturities to twenty years and average lives, in the case of collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) and other mortgage-backed securities, to 10 years. At the time of purchase, bonds of states and political subdivisions must generally be rated A or better, notes of states and political subdivisions must generally be rated MIG-2 (or equivalent) or better, and commercial paper must be rated A-1 or P-1. In addition, management periodically reviews issuer credit ratings for all securities in the Bank’s portfolio other than those issued by the U.S. government or its agencies. Any significant deterioration in the creditworthiness of an issuer will be analyzed and action will be taken if deemed appropriate. The Bank has not engaged in the purchase and sale of securities for the primary purpose of producing trading profits and its current investment policy does not allow such activity.

At December 31, 2007, the Bank had net unrealized gains of $656,000 in its held-to-maturity portfolio, consisting of gross unrealized gains of $1,861,000 and gross unrealized losses of $1,205,000. The unrealized gains and losses were principally caused by decreases and increases, respectively, in interest rates since the securities were purchased. Gains that could be recognized currently upon the sale of securities with unrealized gains would be approximately offset by the reduction in future interest income that would result from purchasing replacement securities that are similar with respect to issuer and duration but currently have lower yields. The Bank intends and expects to be able to hold its held-to-maturity securities to maturity and therefore expects that neither the unrealized gains nor the unrealized losses will ever be realized.

Portfolio Composition. The composition of the Bank’s investment portfolio can be found in “Note B - Investment Securities” to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements which have been incorporated by reference into Item 8 of this Form 10-K.

Maturity Information. The maturities and weighted average yields of the Bank’s investment securities at December 31, 2007 can be found in “Note B - Investment Securities” to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements which have been incorporated by reference into Item 8 of this Form 10-K.

During 2007, the Bank received cash dividends totaling $94,288 on its Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank of New York stock, representing an average yield of 7.01%.

Sources of Funds

General. The Bank’s primary sources of liquidity are deposit growth, maturity and amortization of investment securities, loan payments, operations, borrowings from brokerage firms and commercial banks under repurchase agreements, and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York under repurchase agreements and a variety of other arrangements. The Bank can also borrow overnight federal funds from other commercial banks and borrow at the Federal Reserve Bank discount window. A further discussion of borrowing sources can be found in the section of the Corporation’s 2007 Annual Report to Shareholders entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” which has been incorporated by reference into Item 7 of this Form 10-K.

The Bank offers checking and interest-bearing deposit products. In addition to business checking, the Bank has a variety of personal checking products including “Free”, “First Class”, “Regular”, and “Senior Citizen” checking. Among other things, the personal products differ in minimum balance requirements, monthly maintenance fees, and per check charges, if any. The interest-bearing deposit products, which have a wide range of interest rates and terms, consist of checking accounts, including IOLA; escrow service accounts; rent security accounts; money market products, including traditional personal and nonpersonal money market savings accounts, and “Super Business Money Market” – a high yielding business money market savings account; savings products, including traditional personal and nonpersonal statement and passbook savings accounts, “Super Select Savings” – a high yielding personal statement savings account and “Platinum Savings” – high yielding business and personal savings accounts; savings certificates (3 month, 6 month and 1 to 6 year terms); jumbo certificates; holiday club accounts; and individual retirement accounts, including savings certificates with terms of 3 months to 6 years and “Super Select IRA Savings” – a high yielding IRA money market savings account.

The Bank relies primarily on customer service, calling programs, lending relationships, referral sources, competitive pricing, and advertising to attract and retain deposits. Currently, the Bank solicits deposits only from its local market area and does not have any deposits which qualify as brokered deposits under applicable Federal regulations. The flow of deposits is influenced by general economic conditions, changes in interest rates and competition.

Classification of Average Deposits. The Bank’s average deposit balances by major classification are set forth below.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The Corporation is exposed to a variety of risks, some of which are inherent in the banking business. The more significant of these are addressed by the Corporation’s written policies and procedures, the adherence to which is monitored on an ongoing basis. The risks faced by the Corporation include, among others, credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, market risk for the Corporation’s common stock, changes in and compliance with laws and regulations, and legislative risk.

Credit Risk. For both investment securities and loans, there is always the risk that the Corporation will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms. Credit risk in the Corporation’s securities portfolio has been addressed by adopting a board approved investment policy that, among other things, limits terms and types of holdings, and specifies minimum required ratings. Allowable investments include direct obligations of the U.S. government and its agencies, highly rated obligations of states and political subdivisions, and highly rated corporate obligations. At the time of purchase, bonds of states and political subdivisions must generally be rated A or better, notes of states and political subdivisions must generally be rated MIG-2 (or equivalent) or better, commercial paper must be rated A-1 or P-1, and corporate bonds must be rated A or better. In addition, management periodically reviews issuer credit ratings for all securities in the Corporation’s portfolio other than those issued by the U.S. government or its agencies. Any significant deterioration in the creditworthiness of an issuer will be analyzed and action will be taken if deemed appropriate.

Credit risk in the Corporation’s loan portfolio has been addressed by adopting board approved commercial, consumer, and mortgage loan policies and maintaining a loan review function. The loan policies contain what the Corporation believes to be appropriate underwriting guidelines which include, among other things, specific loan approval requirements, maximum loan terms, loan to appraised value limits for mortgage loans, and environmental study requirements.

The credit risk within the Corporation’s loan portfolio primarily stems from factors such as borrower size, geographic concentration, real estate values and environmental contamination. The Corporation’s commercial loans, including those secured by mortgages, are primarily made to small and medium-sized businesses. Such loans sometimes involve a higher degree of risk than those to larger companies because such businesses may have shorter operating histories and higher debt-to-equity ratios than larger companies and may lack sophistication in internal record keeping and financial and operational controls. In addition, most of the Corporation’s loans are made to businesses and consumers on Long Island and in New York City, and a large percentage of these loans are mortgage loans secured by properties located in those areas. Local economic conditions have been good and real estate values have grown considerably over a number of years. However, in 2007 residential real estate values on Long Island began to decline. The decline could continue and economic conditions could deteriorate. If this occurs, and the decline and deterioration are substantial, some of the Bank’s borrowers may be unable to make the required contractual payments on their loans, and the Corporation may be unable to realize the full carrying value of mortgage loans through foreclosure. Environmental impairment of properties securing mortgage loans is also a risk. However, at the present time, the Corporation is not aware of any existing loans in the portfolio where there is environmental pollution originating on or near the mortgaged properties that would materially affect the value of the portfolio.

Interest Rate Risk. The Corporation’s results of operations are subject to risk resulting from interest rate fluctuations generally and having assets and liabilities that have different maturity, repricing, and prepayment/withdrawal characteristics. The Corporation defines interest rate risk as the risk that the Corporation’s earnings and/or net portfolio value (present value of expected future cash flows from assets less the present value of expected future cash flows from liabilities) will change when interest rates change. The Corporation has addressed interest rate risk by adopting a board approved interest rate risk policy which sets forth quantitative risk limits and calls for monitoring and controlling interest rate risk through a variety of techniques including the use of interest rate sensitivity models and traditional interest rate sensitivity gap analysis. In addition, management has retained an outside consultant with expertise in asset liability management.

Because the Corporation’s loans and investment securities generally reprice slower than its interest-bearing liabilities, an immediate increase in interest rates uniformly across the yield curve should initially have a negative effect on net interest income. However, if the Corporation does not increase the rates paid on its deposit accounts as quickly or in the same amount as increases in market interest rates and/or owns interest rate caps that are in-the-money at the time of the interest rate increase or become in-the-money as a result of the increase, the magnitude of the negative impact will decline and the impact could even be positive. Over a longer period of time, and assuming that interest rates remain stable after the initial rate increase and the Corporation purchases securities and originates loans at yields higher than those maturing and reprices loans at higher yields, the impact of an increase in interest rates should be positive. This occurs primarily because with the passage of time more loans and investment securities will reprice at the higher rates and there will be no offsetting increase in interest expense for those loans and investment securities funded by noninterest-bearing checking deposits and capital.

Conversely, a decrease in interest rates uniformly across the yield curve should initially have a positive impact on the Corporation’s net interest income. Furthermore, if the Corporation owns interest rate floors that are in-the-money at the time of the interest rate decrease or become in-the-money as a result of the decrease, the magnitude of the positive impact should increase. However, if the Corporation does not or cannot decrease the rates paid on its deposit accounts as quickly or in the same amount as decreases in market interest rates, regardless of whether or not it owns interest rate floors, the magnitude of the positive impact will decline and could even be negative.

If interest rates decline, or have declined, and are sustained at the lower levels and, as a result, the Corporation purchases securities at lower yields and loans are originated or repriced at lower yields, the impact on net interest income should be negative because a significant portion of the Corporation’s average interest-earning assets are funded by noninterest-bearing checking deposits and capital.

Liquidity Risk. Liquidity risk is the risk that the Corporation will not have sufficient funds to accommodate loan growth and meet deposit outflows. The Corporation has addressed liquidity risk by adopting a board approved liquidity policy that sets forth quantitative risk limits and includes, among other things, a liquidity contingency plan. The Corporation’s market area is currently characterized by aggressive deposit pricing and extensive branching by other financial institutions. Either could cause deposit outflows, and such outflows could be significant. However, the Corporation believes that its present sources of liquidity, the details of which follow, are more than sufficient to meet loan demand, accommodate deposit outflows, and provide sufficient contingency liquidity.

The Corporation’s primary internal sources of liquidity are its federal funds sold position and overnight investments, unencumbered investment securities designated as available-for-sale, and maturities and monthly payments on its investment securities and loan portfolios. At December 31, 2007, the Corporation had $21,768,000 in federal funds sold and other overnight investments and approximately $141 million in unencumbered available-for-sale securities.

The Corporation is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLB”) and has repurchase agreements in place with a number of brokerage firms and commercial banks. In addition to customer deposits, the Corporation’s primary external sources of liquidity are secured borrowings from the FHLB under a variety of borrowing arrangements and brokerage firms under repurchase agreements. However, neither the Corporation’s FHLB membership nor repurchase agreements represent legal commitments on the part of the FHLB or repurchase agreement counterparties to extend credit to the Corporation. The amount that the Corporation can potentially borrow from the FHLB and brokerage firms is dependent on, among other things, the amount of unencumbered eligible securities that the Corporation can use as collateral. At December 31, 2007, the Corporation had unencumbered eligible securities collateral of approximately $142 million.

The Corporation can also purchase overnight federal funds on an unsecured basis under lines with two other commercial banks. These lines in the aggregate amount of $25 million do not represent legal commitments to extend credit on the part of the other banks.

As a backup to borrowing from the FHLB, brokerage firms and other commercial banks, the Corporation is eligible to borrow on a secured basis at the Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) discount window under the primary credit program. Primary credit, which is normally extended on a very short-term basis, typically overnight, at a rate 50 basis points above the federal funds target rate, is viewed by the FRB as a backup source of short-term funds for sound depository institutions like the Bank. The amount that the Bank can borrow under the primary credit program depends on, among other things, the amount of available eligible collateral.

Market Risk for the Corporation’s Common Stock. Trading volume in the Corporation’s common stock is limited. The publicly reported trading volume in 2007 and 2006, adjusted for the 2-for-1 stock split paid April 16, 2007, was 615,795 and 686,546 shares, respectively. Open market purchases by the Corporation under its share repurchase program accounted for 12.2% of the trading volume in 2007 and 7.8% in 2006. A reduction or discontinuance of its share repurchase program could adversely impact market liquidity for its common stock, the price of its common stock, or both.

In addition, the Corporation’s common stock is included in the Russell Microcap Index. The average market capitalization of companies in the Russell Microcap Index is $300.9 million, the median market capitalization is $260.1 million, the capitalization of the largest company in the index is $711.4 million, and the capitalization of the smallest company in the index is $78.6 million. The Corporation’s market capitalization as of December 31, 2007 was approximately $138 million.

The Corporation believes that inclusion in the Russell Microcap Index positively impacts the price, trading volume and liquidity of its common stock. Conversely, if the Corporation’s market capitalization falls below the minimum necessary to be included in the Russell Microcap Index at any future annual reconstitution date, the Corporation believes that this could adversely affect the price, volume and liquidity of its common stock.

Laws and Regulation. The Corporation and the Bank (collectively referred to as the “Corporation”) are subject to extensive federal and state laws and regulations governing banks, bank holding companies and public companies. The Corporation’s primary regulators include the Federal Reserve Board, the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively referred to as the “Regulators”). The Comptroller of the Currency regularly examines the Bank for safety and soundness and compliance with banking laws and regulations. Changes in laws and regulations affecting the Corporation, or the degree of the Corporation’s compliance with such laws and regulations as judged by the Regulators, could have a significant impact on the Corporation’s operations and its financial results. The Corporation controls the risk of noncompliance with laws and regulations by having Board approved compliance policies, hiring and retaining employees with the experience and skills necessary to properly address compliance on an ongoing basis, and consulting, when necessary with legal counsel on compliance matters.

Pending Legislation. Commercial checking deposits currently account for approximately 27% of the Corporation’s total deposits. Congress has been considering legislation that would allow corporate customers to cover checks by sweeping funds from interest-

bearing deposit accounts each business day and repeal the prohibition of the payment of interest on corporate checking deposits. Either could have a material adverse impact on the Corporation’s future results of operations.

The Bank wholly-owns FNY Service Corp. (“FNY”), an investment company, and FNY owns all of the issued and outstanding common stock of The First of Long Island REIT, Inc (“REIT”), a real estate investment trust. Under current New York State (“NYS”) tax law, the REIT files a separate NYS tax return and, in conformity with federal tax treatment, is entitled to a dividends paid deduction for the dividends that it pays to FNY. Furthermore, FNY is entitled to a 100% dividends received deduction for any dividends that it receives from the REIT. The favorable tax treatment of dividends paid by the REIT and received by FNY should save the Corporation approximately $480,000 in 2008. The tax savings are impacted by, among other things, the current size and asset composition of the REIT and current interest rates. The 2008-2009 New York State Executive Budget proposes certain changes with respect to the tax treatment of captive REITs. If enacted into law, these changes would cause the earnings of captive REITs to become fully taxable in New York State after three years and thereby eliminate the tax benefit that the Corporation receives from its REIT subsidiary.

The Corporation believes that the physical facilities of the Bank are suitable and adequate at present and are being fully utilized.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
