NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Suffolk Bancorp (“Suffolk”) and its consolidated subsidiaries, primarily Suffolk County National Bank (the “Bank”), have been prepared to reflect all adjustments (consisting solely of normally recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented. Certain information and footnotes normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. Notwithstanding, management believes that the disclosures are adequate to prevent the information from misleading the reader, particularly when the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Registrant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the remainder of the year.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.

(2) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-03, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860), “Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements,” which amends the authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 860 “Transfers and Servicing.” The amendments in this update remove from the assessment of effective control (1) the criterion requiring the transferor to have the ability to repurchase or redeem the financial assets on substantially the agreed terms, even in the event of default by the transferee, and (2) the collateral maintenance implementation guidance related to that criterion. The amendments in this update are effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011, and should be applied prospectively to transactions or modifications of existing transactions that occur on or after the effective date. Early adoption is not permitted. Adoption of this update did not have a material effect on Suffolk’s results of operations or financial condition.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS,” which amends the authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurement” to more closely align U.S. GAAP with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). This standard requires the disclosure of: (1) the reason for the measurement for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements; (2) all transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy must be separately reported and described; (3) for all Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements, a description of the valuation technique(s) and the inputs used in those measurements; (4) for Level 3 measurements, the quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in those measurements; (5) a description of the valuation processes used in Level 3 fair value measurements, as well as narrative descriptions about those measurement’s sensitivity to changes in unobservable inputs if such changes would significantly alter the fair value measurement; and (6) expanded disclosure of the categorization by level of the fair value hierarchy for the items that are not measured at fair value in the balance sheet, but for where the estimated fair value is required to be disclosed (e.g. portfolio loans and deposits). This new guidance was effective prospectively beginning January 1, 2012 and it did not have a material effect on Suffolk’s condensed consolidated financial statements upon implementation. The new disclosures of the fair value levels of Suffolk’s assets and liabilities are set forth in Note 3.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Topic 220, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income,” in order to improve the comparability, consistency and transparency of financial reporting and to increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income. This standard eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. This update requires all non-owner changes in stockholders’ equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In the two-statement approach, the first statement should present total net income and its components followed consecutively by a second statement that should present total other comprehensive income, the components of other comprehensive income, and the total of comprehensive income. Regardless of which presentation method an entity chooses, the entity is required to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s), where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. This new guidance was effective retrospectively for all annual and interim periods presented beginning January 1, 2012 and Suffolk now presents a separate condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income. In October 2011, the FASB decided to defer the presentation of reclassification adjustments pending further consideration.

Page 7

In September 2011 the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment,” to give both public and nonpublic entities the option to qualitatively determine whether they can bypass the two-step goodwill impairment test under FASB ASC 350-20, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. Under the new guidance, if an entity chooses to perform a qualitative assessment and determines that it is more likely than not (a more than 50 percent likelihood) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it would then perform Step 1 of the annual goodwill impairment test in ASC 350-20 and, if necessary, proceed to Step 2. Otherwise, no further evaluation would be necessary. The amended guidance is effective for interim and annual goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, although early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed as of a date before September 15, 2011, if an entity’s financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued. Suffolk adopted ASU 2011-08 effective in the third quarter of 2011. Adoption of this update did not have an effect on Suffolk’s results of operations or financial condition.

(3) Fair Value

Suffolk records investments available for sale, other real estate owned (“OREO”), mortgage servicing rights and impaired loans at fair value. Fair value measurement is determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability in an exchange. The definition of fair value includes the exchange price which is the price in an orderly transaction between market participants to sell an asset or transfer a liability in the principal market for the asset or liability. Market participant assumptions include assumptions about risk, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique, as well as the effect of credit risk on the fair value of liabilities. Suffolk uses three levels of the fair value inputs to measure assets, as described below.

Basis of Fair Value Measurement:

Level 1 – Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.

Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include: (i) quoted prices for similar investments in active markets; (ii) quoted prices for identical investments traded in non-active markets (i.e., dealer or broker markets); and (iii) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or inputs derived from or corroborated by market data for substantially the full term of the investment.

Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable, supported by little or no market activity, and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

The following table presents the carrying amounts and fair values of Suffolk’s financial instruments. FASB ASC 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation: (in thousands)

	Level in Fair Value Hierarchy		March 31, 2012				December 31, 2011
			Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Cash & cash equivalents		Level 1	$	213,454	$	213,454	$	172,559	$	172,559
Total loans		Level 2		939,736		968,654		969,654		1,000,028
Accrued interest and loan fees receivable		Level 2		6,133		6,133		6,885		6,885
Deposits		Level 2		1,311,276		1,313,522		1,311,872		1,314,190
Accrued interest payable		Level 2		348		348		348		348

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time and may be based on judgments regarding losses expected in the future, risk, and other factors that are subjective in nature. The methods and assumptions used to produce the fair value estimates follow.

Short-term financial instruments are valued at the carrying amounts included in the condensed consolidated statements of condition, which are reasonable estimates of fair value due to the relatively short term nature of the instruments. This approach applies to cash and cash equivalents; accrued interest and loan fees receivable; non-interest-bearing demand deposits; N.O.W., money market, and saving accounts; and accrued interest payable.

Page 8

Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar characteristics. Loans are segregated by type. The fair value of performing loans was calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through their estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk of the loan. Estimated maturity is based on the Bank’s history of repayments for each type of loan and an estimate of the effect of the current economy. Fair value for significant non-performing loans is based on recent external appraisals of collateral, if any. If appraisals are not available, estimated cash flows are discounted using a rate commensurate with the associated risk. Assumptions regarding credit risk, cash flows, and discount rates are made using available market information and specific borrower information.

Other assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis were as follows: (in thousands)

Total	$	122,036	$	—	$	—	$	122,036

(1) Mortgage servicing rights are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Impaired loans are evaluated and valued at the time the loan is identified as impaired. The loans are measured based on the value of the collateral securing these loans, or techniques that are not based on market activity for loans that are not collateral dependent and require management’s judgment. Collateral may be real estate and/or business assets including equipment, inventory and/or accounts receivable. The value of real estate collateral is determined based on appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers hired by Suffolk. The value of business equipment may be based on an appraisal by qualified licensed appraisers hired by Suffolk if significant, or may be valued based on the equipment’s net book value on the business’ financial statements. Inventory and accounts receivable collateral may be valued based on independent field examiner review or aging reports, if significant. Reviews by field examiners may be conducted based on the loan exposure and reliance on this type of collateral. Appraised and reported values may be discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business. Impaired loans are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly, based on the same factors identified above.

The types of instruments valued based on quoted market prices in active markets include most U.S. government debt and agency debt securities. Such instruments are generally classified within level 1 and level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Suffolk does not adjust the quoted price for such instruments.

The types of instruments valued based on quoted prices in markets that are not active, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency include state and municipal obligations, mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations. Such instruments are generally classified within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” provides additional guidance in determining fair values when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased, particularly when there is no active market or where the price inputs being used represent distressed sales. It also provides guidelines for making fair value measurements more consistent with principles, reaffirming the need to use judgment to ascertain if a formerly active market has become inactive and in determining fair values when markets become inactive.

The fair value of certificates of deposit less than $250,000 is calculated by discounting cash flows with applicable origination rates. At March 31, 2012, the fair value of certificates of deposit less than $250,000 totaling $159,985,000 had a carrying value of $158,288,000. The fair value of certificates of deposit of $250,000 or more totaling $107,780,000 had a carrying value of $107,232,000 at the same date.

The fair value of commitments to extend credit was estimated by either discounting cash flows or using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the current creditworthiness of the counterparties.

The estimated fair value of written financial guarantees and letters of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements. The contractual amounts of these commitments were $18,773,000 and $19,842,000 at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The fees charged for the commitments were not material in amount.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. All of the Company’s investment securities classified as available-for-sale or held-to-maturity are evaluated for OTTI under SFAS 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.”

In determining OTTI under the ASC 320 model, management considers many factors, including: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions, and (4) whether the entity has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. The assessment of whether an other-than-temporary decline exists involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and is based on information available to management at a point in time. An OTTI is deemed to have occurred if there has been an adverse change in the remaining expected future cash flows.

When an OTTI occurs under the model, the amount of the OTTI recognized in earnings depends on whether an entity intends to sell the security or more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period credit loss. If an entity intends to sell or more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period credit loss, the OTTI shall be recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the investment’s amortized cost basis and its fair value at the balance sheet date. If an entity does not intend to sell the security and it is not more likely than not that the entity will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period loss, the OTTI shall be separated into the amount representing the credit loss and the amount related to all other factors. The amount of the total OTTI related to the credit loss is determined based on the present value of cash flows expected to be collected and is recognized in earnings. The amount of the total OTTI related to other factors shall be recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable tax benefit. The previous amortized cost basis less the OTTI recognized in earnings shall become the new amortized cost basis of the investment.

The unrealized losses in Suffolk’s collateralized mortgage obligations at March 31, 2012 were caused by changes in interest rates, a significant widening of credit spreads across markets for these securities, and illiquidity in the financial markets for these instruments. These securities include two non-agency private label issues held at a continuous, unrealized loss for twelve months or longer and are either super-senior or senior in tranche structure. Each of these securities has some level of credit enhancement, and none are collateralized by sub-prime loans. With the assistance of a third party, management reviews the characteristics of these securities periodically, including levels of delinquency and foreclosure, projected losses at various degrees of severity, and credit enhancement and coverage. Based on the aforementioned periodic analysis, it was determined that no securities had additional impairment at March 31, 2012.

The following table summarizes the two non-agency, private label collateralized mortgage obligation securities, by year of vintage with OTTI, credit ratings and related credit losses recognized in earnings at March 31, 2012. Management determined the estimated fair values for each security based on discounted cash flow analyses using the Intex Desktop Valuation model. Management explicitly calculates the credit component utilizing conditional default and loss severity vectors with the Intex model. Management relies on FASB ASC paragraph 820-10-55-5 to provide guidance on the discount rates to be used when a market is not active. According to the standard, the discount rate should take into account all of the following factors:

• The time value of money (risk-free rate)

• Price for bearing the uncertainty in the cash flows (risk premium)

• Other case-specific factors that would be considered by market participants, including a liquidity adjustment.

Page 12

Weighted average key assumptions utilized in the valuations were as follows:

• Discount Rate – 10.5%

• Voluntary Prepayments – 16.2%

• Conditional Default Rates – 10.1% for the first 24 months, then trending downward in a linear fashion for the following 12 months, then to zero through approximately 17 years.

• Loss Severity – 54.8% trending downward to terminal loss severities of 23%, in a linear fashion, at 2.5% per year.

	Year of Vintage		Total Fair		Total Amortized		Total OTTI Related to Credit Loss at
(in thousands)	2006		Value		Cost		Mar. 31, 2012
Rating:

Total Non-Agency
CMO’s	$	7,708	$	7,708	$	8,462	$	—

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements of Suffolk’s collateralized mortgage obligations are voluntary prepayment rates, conditional default rates and loss severity in the event of default. Significant increases or decreases in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. Generally, a change in the assumption used for the conditional default rates is accompanied by a directionally similar change in the assumption used for the loss severity and a directionally opposite change in the assumption used for voluntary prepayment rates.

(6) 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 un-collectibility 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, 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.

Page 13

A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that Suffolk will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Loans for which the terms have been modified resulting in a concession, and for which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, are considered troubled debt restructurings and classified as impaired. Generally, troubled debt restructurings are initially classified as non-accrual until sufficient time has passed to assess whether the restructured loan will continue to perform. Generally, Suffolk returns a troubled-debt restructuring to accrual status upon six months of performance under the new terms.

Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.

Commercial and commercial real estate loans over $250,000 are individually evaluated for impairment. 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 homogeneous loans with smaller individual balances, such as consumer and residential real estate loans, are evaluated collectively for impairment, and accordingly, are not separately identified for impairment disclosures. Troubled debt restructurings are separately identified for impairment disclosures and are measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s effective rate at inception. If a troubled debt restructuring is considered to be “collateral-dependent,” the loan is reported, net, at the fair value of the collateral. For troubled debt restructurings that subsequently default, Suffolk determines the amount of reserve in accordance with the accounting policy for the allowance for loan losses.

The general component covers non impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience, adjusted for qualitative factors. The historical loss experience is determined by portfolio segment, and is based on the actual loss history experienced by Suffolk over the historical loan loss period which is a rolling twelve month period. This actual loss experience is supplemented with other qualitative factors based on the risks present for each portfolio segment. These qualitative factors include consideration of the following: levels of and trends in delinquencies and impaired loans; levels of and trends in charge-offs and recoveries; trends in volume and terms of loans; effects of any changes in risk selection and underwriting standards; other changes in lending policies, procedures and practices; experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff; national and local economic trends and conditions; industry conditions; and effects of changes in credit concentrations. The following portfolio segments have been identified:

• Commercial, financial & agricultural loans

• Commercial real estate mortgages

• Real estate — construction loans

• Residential mortgages (1st and 2nd liens)

• Home equity loans

• Consumer loans

In addition, qualitative factors are considered for areas of concern that cannot be fully quantified in the allocation based on historical net charge-off ratios. Qualitative factors include:

• Economic outlook

• Trends in delinquency and problem loans

• Changes in loan volume and nature of terms of loans

• Effects of changes in lending policy

• Experience, ability, and depth of lending management and staff

• Concentrations of credit

• Board and loan review oversight

• Changes in value of underlying collateral

• Competition, regulation, and other external factors

For performing loans, an estimate of adequacy is made by applying qualitative factors specific to the portfolio to the period-end balances. Consideration is also given to the type and collateral of the loans with particular attention paid to commercial real estate construction loans, due to the inherent risk of this type of loan. Allocated and general reserves are available for any identified loss.

Page 14

Delinquent, non-performing, and classified loans have trended upward in recent quarters. These are primary factors in the determination of the allowance.

At March 31, 2012, non-performing loans, including non-accrual loans and loans contractually past due 90 days or more with regard to payment of principal and/or interest, totaled $83,152,000 as compared to $80,760,000 at December 31, 2011. When compared to total loans, non-performing loans rose to 8.8 percent at March 31, 2012, up from 8.3 percent at December 31, 2011. An increase in commercial non-accrual loans was primarily responsible for the growth in total non-accrual loans at March 31, 2012.

Credit Quality Information

The Bank utilizes an eight-grade risk-rating system for commercial loans, commercial real estate and construction loans. Loans in risk grades 1-4 are considered “pass” loans. The Bank’s risk grades are as follows:

Risk Grade 1 Excellent:

Loans secured by liquid collateral, such as certificates of deposit, reputable bank letters of credit, or other cash equivalents; loans that are guaranteed or otherwise backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government or an agency thereof, such as the Small Business Administration; or loans to any publicly held company with a current long-term debt rating of A or better.

Page 19

Risk Grade 2 Good:

Loans to businesses that have strong financial statements containing an unqualified opinion from a CPA firm and at least three consecutive years of profits; loans supported by un-audited financial statements containing strong balance sheets, five consecutive years of profits, a five-year satisfactory relationship with the Bank, and key balance sheet and income statement trends that are either stable or positive; loans secured by publicly traded marketable securities where there is no impediment to liquidation; loans to individuals backed by liquid personal assets, established credit history, and unquestionable character; or loans to publicly held companies with current long-term debt ratings of Baa or better.

Risk Grade 3 Satisfactory:

Loans supported by financial statements (audited or un-audited) that indicate average or slightly below average risk and having some deficiency or vulnerability to changing economic conditions; loans with some weakness but offsetting features of other support are readily available; loans that are meeting the terms of repayment, but which may be susceptible to deterioration if adverse factors are encountered.

Loans may be graded Satisfactory when there is no recent information on which to base a current risk evaluation and the following conditions apply:

• At inception, the loan was properly underwritten, did not possess an unwarranted level of credit risk, and the loan met the above criteria for a risk grade of Excellent, Good, or Satisfactory;

• At inception, the loan was secured with collateral possessing a loan value adequate to protect the Bank from loss.

• The loan has exhibited two or more years of satisfactory repayment with a reasonable reduction of the principal balance.

• During the period that the loan has been outstanding, there has been no evidence of any credit weakness. Some examples of weakness include slow payment, lack of cooperation by the borrower, breach of loan covenants, or

• The borrower is in an industry known to be experiencing problems. If any of these credit weaknesses is observed, a lower risk grade may be warranted.

Risk Grade 4 Satisfactory/Monitored:

Loans in this category are considered to be of acceptable credit quality, but contain greater credit risk than satisfactory loans due to weak balance sheets, marginal earnings or cash flow, or other uncertainties. These loans warrant a higher than average level of monitoring to ensure that weaknesses do not advance. The level of risk in a Satisfactory/Monitored loan is within acceptable underwriting guidelines so long as the loan is given the proper level of management supervision.

Risk Grade 5 Special Mention:

Loans which possess some credit deficiency or potential weakness which deserves close attention. Such loans pose an unwarranted financial risk that, if not corrected, could weaken the loan by adversely impacting the future repayment ability of the borrower. The key distinctions of a Special Mention classification are that (1) it is indicative of an unwarranted level of risk and (2) weaknesses are considered “potential,” not “defined,” impairments to the primary source of repayment.

Risk Grade 6 Substandard:

One or more of the following characteristics may be exhibited in loans classified Substandard:

• Loans which possess a defined credit weakness. The likelihood that a loan will be paid from the primary source of repayment is uncertain. Financial deterioration is under way and very close attention is warranted to ensure that the loan is collected without loss.

• Loans are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor.

• The primary source of repayment is gone, and the Bank is forced to rely on a secondary source of repayment, such as collateral liquidation or guarantees.

• Loans have a distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if deficiencies are not corrected.

• Unusual courses of action are needed to maintain a high probability of repayment.

• The borrower is not generating enough cash flow to repay loan principal; however, it continues to make interest payments.

• The lender is forced into a subordinated or unsecured position due to flaws in documentation.

• Loans have been restructured so that payment schedules, terms, and collateral represent concessions to the borrower when compared to the normal loan terms.

Page 20

• The lender is seriously contemplating foreclosure or legal action due to the apparent deterioration in the loan.

• There is a significant deterioration in market conditions to which the borrower is highly vulnerable.

Risk Grade 7 Doubtful:

One or more of the following characteristics may be present in loans classified Doubtful:

• Loans have all of the weaknesses of those classified as Substandard. However, based on existing conditions, these weaknesses make full collection of principal highly improbable.

• The primary source of repayment is gone, and there is considerable doubt as to the quality of the secondary source of repayment.

• The possibility of loss is high but because of certain important pending factors which may strengthen the loan, loss classification is deferred until the exact status of repayment is known.

Risk Grade 8 Loss:

Loans are considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuing to carry them as assets is not feasible. Loans will be classified Loss when it is neither practical nor desirable to defer writing off or reserving all or a portion of a basically worthless asset, even though partial recovery may be possible at some time in the future.

The Bank considers real estate, home equity and consumer loans secured by real estate (such as mobile homes) that are contractually past due 90 days or more or where legal action has commenced against the borrower to be substandard. The Bank follows the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (“FFIEC”) Uniform Retail Credit Classification guidelines.

The Bank reviews formally, annually, the ratings on all commercial and industrial, commercial real estate and construction loans greater than $1 million. Quarterly, the Bank engages an independent third-party to review a significant portion of loans within these segments. Management uses the results of these reviews as part of its annual review process.

(7) Retirement Plan

Suffolk accounts for its retirement plan in accordance with FASB ASC 715, “Compensation – Retirement Benefits” and FASB ASC 960, “Plan Accounting – Defined Benefit Pension Plans,” which require an employer that is a business entity and sponsors one or more single-employer defined benefit plans to recognize the funded status of a benefit plan in its statement of financial position; recognize as a component of other comprehensive income, net of tax, the gains or losses and prior service costs or credits that arise during the period but are not recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost; measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations as of the date of fiscal year-end statements of financial position (with limited exceptions); and disclose in the notes to financial statements additional information about certain effects of net periodic benefit cost for the next fiscal year that arise from delayed recognition of the gains or losses, prior service costs or credits, and transition asset and obligation. Plan assets and benefit obligations shall be measured as of the date of its statement of financial position and in determining the amount of net periodic benefit cost. Suffolk has adopted the provisions of the codification, which have been recorded in the accompanying consolidated statement of condition and disclosures.

Page 22

Suffolk presents information concerning net periodic defined benefit pension expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, including the following components: (in thousands)

	Three Months ended March 31

Net periodic benefit expense	$	791		$	791

There is no minimum required contribution for the pension plan year ending September 30, 2012. There were no additional contributions required to be made to the plan in the three months ended March 31, 2012.

(8) Stock-based Compensation

Under the terms of Suffolk’s stock option plans adopted in 1999 and 2009, options have been granted to key employees and directors to purchase shares of Suffolk’s stock. Under the Suffolk Bancorp 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (“the Plan”), there are 500,000 shares of Suffolk’s common stock reserved for issuance, of which 100,000 had been granted as of March 31, 2012. There are no shares reserved for issuance under the 1999 Stock Option Plan. Options are awarded by a committee appointed by the Board of Directors. Both plans provide that the option price shall not be less than the fair value of the common stock on the date the option is granted. All options are exercisable for a period of ten years or less. Both plans provide for but do not require the grant of stock appreciation rights that the holder may exercise instead of the underlying option. When the stock appreciation right is exercised, the underlying option is canceled. The optionee receives shares of common stock or cash with a fair market value equal to the excess of the fair value of the shares subject to the option at the time of exercise (or the portion thereof so exercised) over the aggregate option price of the shares set forth in the option agreement. The exercise of stock appreciation rights is treated as the exercise of the underlying option. Options granted prior to 2010 vest after one year. Options granted in 2011 are exercisable commencing three years from the date of grant at a rate of one third per year. Options granted in 2012 are exercisable commencing one year from the date of grant at a rate of one third per year.

On December 30, 2011, Suffolk granted an award of 30,000 non-qualified stock options at an exercise price of $10.79 per share. The stock option award was granted to the President and Chief Executive Officer as an inducement material to employment with Suffolk. The non-qualified options were not issued as part of any of Suffolk’s registered stock-based compensation plans. The options are exercisable commencing three years from the date of grant at a rate of one third per year. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, $9,000 was recognized as compensation expense. The total remaining unrecognized compensation cost of $169,000 will be expensed over the remaining vesting period of 4.75 years.

Stock-based compensation for all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, is recorded in the financial statements based on their fair values. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, $18,000 was recognized as compensation expense. The remaining unrecognized compensation cost of $687,000 will be expensed over the remaining weighted vesting period of approximately three years.

The following table presents the options granted, exercised, or expired under the 1999 Plan and the 2009 Plan during the three months ended March 31, 2012:

	Shares			Weighted Average Price

(9) Income Taxes

Suffolk uses an asset and liability approach to accounting for income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are recognized if it is more likely than not that a future benefit will be realized. It is management’s position that no valuation allowance is necessary against any of Suffolk’s deferred tax assets. Suffolk accounts for income taxes in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, “Income Taxes,” which prescribes the recognition and measurement criteria related to tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Suffolk had unrecognized tax benefits including interest of approximately $38,000 as of March 31, 2012. Suffolk recognizes interest and penalties accrued relating to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

(10) Regulatory Matters

On October 25, 2010, the Bank, following discussion with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”) entered into an agreement with the OCC (the “Agreement”). The Agreement requires the Bank to take certain actions, including a review of management, the establishment of a three-year strategic plan and capital program, and the establishment of programs related to internal audit, maintaining an adequate allowance for loan losses, real property appraisal, credit risk management, credit concentrations, Bank Secrecy Act compliance and information technology.

Management and the board of directors are committed to taking all necessary actions to promptly address the requirements of the Agreement, and believe that the Bank has already made measurable progress in addressing these requirements. In connection with the foregoing, the Bank has retained legal and other resources including the services of a qualified compliance consultant to assist and advise in meeting the requirements of the Agreement.

The Bank is subject to individual minimum capital ratios (“IMCR’s”) established by the OCC requiring Tier 1 Leverage Capital equal to at least 8.00 percent of adjusted total assets; Tier 1 Risk-based Capital equal to at least 10.50 percent of risk-weighted assets; and Total Risk Based Capital equal to at least 12.00 percent of risk-weighted assets. Management believes the Bank met all three IMCR’s at March 31, 2012: Tier 1 Capital was 8.73 percent of adjusted total assets; Tier 1 Capital was 13.10 percent of risk-weighted assets; Total Risk Based Capital was 14.38 percent of risk-weighted assets. 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 Bank’s financial statements.

At March 31, 2012, Suffolk Bancorp’s Tier 1 capital ratio was 8.76 percent of adjusted total assets, Tier 1 capital ratio was 13.14 percent of risk-weighted assets, and Total Risk Based capital ratio was 14.42 percent of risk-weighted assets.

The ability of the Bank to pay dividends to Suffolk is subject to certain regulatory restrictions. Generally, dividends declared in a given year by a national bank are limited to its net profit, as defined by regulatory agencies, for that year, combined with its retained net income for the preceding two years, less any required transfer to surplus or to fund for the retirement of any preferred stock of which the Bank has none as of March 31, 2012. In addition, a national bank may not pay any dividends in an amount greater than its undivided profits and a national bank may not declare any dividends if such declaration would leave the Bank inadequately capitalized. Therefore, the ability of the Bank to declare dividends will depend on its future net

income and capital requirements. In addition, under the Agreement the Bank is required to establish a dividend policy that will permit the declaration of a dividend only when the Bank is in compliance with its capital program and with the prior written determination of no supervisory objection by the OCC.

While subject to the Agreement, Suffolk expects that its and the Bank’s management and board of directors will be required to focus a substantial amount of time on complying with its terms. There also is no guarantee that the Bank will be able to fully comply with the Agreement. If the Bank fails to comply with the terms of the Agreement, it could be subject to further regulatory enforcement actions.

(11) Legal Proceedings

On July 11, 2011 a shareholder derivative action, Robert J. Levy v. J. Gordon Huszagh, et al., No. 11 Civ. 3321 (JS), was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York against certain current and former directors of Suffolk and a former officer of Suffolk. Suffolk was named as a nominal defendant. The complaint seeks damages against the individual defendants in an unspecified amount, and alleges that the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties by making improper statements regarding the sufficiency of Suffolk’s allowance for loan losses and loan portfolio credit quality, and by failing to establish sufficient allowances for loan losses and to establish effective credit risk management policies. On September 30, 2011, Suffolk and the current and former director defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint.

On October 28, 2011, a separate shareholder derivative action, Susan Forbush v. Edgar F. Goodale, et al., No. 33538/11, was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of Suffolk, against certain current and former directors of Suffolk and a former officer of Suffolk. Suffolk was named as a nominal defendant. The complaint asserts claims that are substantially similar to those asserted in the Levy action. On February 17, 2012, the defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaint.

On October 20, 2011, a putative shareholder class action, James E. Fisher v. Suffolk Bancorp, et al., No. 11 Civ. 5114 (SJ), was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York against Suffolk, its former chief executive officer, and a former chief financial officer of Suffolk. The complaint alleges that the defendants violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by knowingly or recklessly making false statements about, or failing to disclose accurate information about, Suffolk’s financial results and condition, loan loss reserves, impaired assets, internal and disclosure controls, and banking practices. The complaint seeks damages in an unspecified amount on behalf of purchasers of Suffolk’s common stock between March 12, 2010 and August 10, 2011.

The foregoing matters are in their preliminary phases and it is not possible to ascertain whether there is a reasonable possibility of a loss from these matters. Therefore we have concluded that an amount for a loss contingency is not to be accrued or disclosed at this time. Suffolk believes that it has substantial defenses to the claims filed against it in these lawsuits and, to the extent that these actions proceed, Suffolk intends to defend itself vigorously.

Suffolk has been informed that the SEC’s New York regional office is conducting an informal inquiry to determine whether there have been violations of the federal securities laws in connection with Suffolk’s financial reporting. The SEC has not asserted that any federal securities law violation has occurred. Suffolk believes it is in compliance with all federal securities laws and believes it has cooperated fully with the SEC’s informal inquiry. Although the ultimate outcome of the informal inquiry cannot be ascertained at this time, based upon information that presently is available to it, Suffolk does not believe that the informal inquiry, when resolved, will have a material adverse effect on Suffolk’s results of operations or financial condition.

Item 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the Three Month Period ended March 31, 2012 and 2011

Recent Developments

Net income for the first quarter of 2012 was $1.2 million, or $0.12 per diluted common share, compared to a net loss of $7.6 million, or $0.78 per diluted common share, a year ago.

The increase in 2012 first quarter earnings was the result of a $20.0 million reduction in the provision for loan losses. The reduction in the provision for loan losses resulted from a lower level of criticized and classified assets in the first quarter of 2012 coupled with positive results from ongoing workout activities. Somewhat offsetting the foregoing improvements were a $4.2 million (22.8 percent) reduction in net interest income and an $832 thousand (6.0 percent) increase in total operating expenses, principally due to non-recurring fees paid to Suffolk’s former independent registered public accounting firm. The reduction in net interest income resulted from a lower level of average interest-earning assets, primarily loans, coupled with a narrowing of the net interest margin in 2012 when compared to the year ago period. The reduction in the net interest margin is due to the higher level of non-accrual loans along with an increase in low-yielding overnight interest-bearing deposits in 2012.

Basic Performance and Current Activities

• Capital – Suffolk’s Tier I Leverage ratio was 8.76 percent at March 31, 2012 versus 7.94 percent at March 31, 2011 and 8.85 percent at December 31, 2011. Suffolk’s Total Risk-Based Capital ratio was 14.42 percent at March 31, 2012 versus 12.32 percent at March 31, 2011 and 14.26 percent at December 31, 2011. Suffolk’s Tangible Common Equity ratio (non-GAAP financial measure) was 9.02 percent at March 31, 2012 versus 7.97 percent at March 31, 2011 and 9.05 percent at December 31, 2011.

• Asset Quality – Total non-accrual loans increased to $83.2 million or 8.85 percent of loans outstanding at March 31, 2012 versus $80.8 million or 8.33 percent of loans outstanding at December 31, 2011. Total accruing loans delinquent 30 days or more amounted to 2.35 percent of loans outstanding at March 31, 2012 versus 3.56 percent of loans outstanding at December 31, 2011. Net loan recoveries of $50 thousand were recorded in the first quarter of 2012 versus net charge-offs of $851 thousand in the first quarter of 2011. The allowance for loan losses totaled $40.0 million at each of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, representing 4.26 percent and 4.12 percent of total loans, respectively, at such dates. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-accrual loans, excluding non-accrual loans categorized as held for sale, was 48 percent and 49 percent at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Suffolk held other real estate owned of $2 million at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

• Core Deposits – Core deposits totaled $1.0 billion at March 31, 2012 versus $1.1 billion at December 31, 2011. Core deposits represented 80 percent of total deposits in the quarter ended March 31, 2012 and 81 percent for the quarter ended December 31, 2011. Demand deposits decreased by 3.3 percent to $508 million at March 31, 2012 from $525 million at December 31, 2011. Demand deposits represented 39 percent of total deposits at March 31, 2012 and 40 percent at December 31, 2011.

• Loans – Loans outstanding at March 31, 2012 declined by 3.1 percent to $940 million when compared to December 31, 2011.

• Net Interest Margin – Net interest margin was 4.24 percent in the first quarter of 2012 versus 4.99 percent in the first quarter of 2011.

• Performance Ratios – Return on average assets and return on average common stockholders’ equity were 0.31 percent and 3.44 percent, respectively, in the first quarter of 2012 and (1.86 percent) and (22.47 percent), respectively, in the comparable 2011 period.

Continuing managerial emphasis included:

• Rebuilding an executive and senior management team with extensive background in the community banking sector. Following the appointment of a new Chief Executive Officer at the end of the fourth quarter of 2011, during the first quarter, Suffolk added a new Chief Financial Officer, a new Chief Lending Officer, a new Comptroller and a new head of Credit Administration, all of whom have significant industry experience. The executive team is now complete.

Page 26

• Managing net loan charge-offs and non-performing loans. Although non-accrual loans increased slightly from year-end 2011, the Bank’s criticized and classified loan totals declined in the first quarter, versus both March 31 and December 31, 2011, as a result of more focused workout activities, securing additional collateral in certain cases, and upgrading loans where improving financial results warranted such action. Suffolk will maintain an aggressive credit remediation posture throughout 2012 on both the non-accrual and criticized and classified loan pools and management expects to see additional improvements in credit quality as the year progresses, although there can be no assurance that this will occur. The pace of these improvements, however, will depend in large part on local economic conditions. Lending staff’s first efforts continue to be directed to the management of such credits, and then to developing new business with an emphasis on the most profitable customer relationships.

• Maintaining emphasis on both commercial and personal demand deposits, and non-maturity time deposits as a key part of relationships with customers while responding as necessary to demand in Suffolk’s market for certificates of deposit of all sizes. Suffolk continues its emphasis on the profitability of the whole relationship of its customers with the Bank, seeking when possible to both make loans to and obtain funding from the best qualified customers.

• Managing the investment portfolio in a difficult rate environment, attempting to balance the need for current yield against the interest rate risk inherent in securities of longer maturities.

Net Income (Loss)

Net income was $1,168,000 for the first quarter of 2012, compared to a loss of ($7,574,000) posted during the same period last year. Fully-diluted earnings-per-share for the quarter was $0.12 versus a loss-per-share of ($0.78) a year ago. The key reason for the improvement versus 2011 was a decline in the provision for loan losses in the first quarter from $19,971,000 to $0, which drove a rise in net interest income (loss) after provision for loan losses to $14,208,000 in 2012 from ($1,564,000) in 2011.

Interest Income

Interest income was $15,244,000 in the first quarter of 2012, down 25.0 percent from $20,319,000 posted for the same quarter in 2011. Average loans during the first quarter of 2012 totaled $951,003,000 compared to $1,113,812,000 for the comparable 2011 period. During the first quarter of 2012, Suffolk’s earning asset yield declined to 4.54 percent on average earning assets of $1,414,426,000, down from 5.48 percent on average earning assets of $1,555,324,000 during the first quarter of 2011. Year over year, the average balance of interest bearing deposits with banks increased to $141,560,000 from $34,350,000, with an average rate earned on the balances for the three months ended March 31, 2012 of 0.22 percent.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the first quarter of 2012 was $1,036,000, down 45.8 percent from $1,912,000 for the same period of 2011. During the first quarter of 2012, Suffolk’s cost of funds was 0.52 percent on average interest-bearing liabilities of $800,867,000, down from 0.79 percent on average interest-bearing liabilities of $970,365,000 during the first quarter of 2011. Suffolk’s cost of funds on average total deposits, including interest-free demand balances, was 0.32 percent in the first quarter of 2012 versus 0.52 percent in the comparable 2011 period.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the largest component of Suffolk’s earnings. It was $14,208,000 for the first quarter of 2012, down 22.8 percent from $18,407,000 during the same period of 2011. The net interest margin for the quarter, on a fully taxable-equivalent basis, was 4.24 percent compared to 4.99 percent for the same period of 2011. The reduction in net interest margin in 2012 was principally due to the higher level of non-accrual loans coupled with a significant increase in low-yielding interest bearing overnight deposits in 2012.

The table below presents a summary of changes in interest income, interest expense, and the resulting net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis for the quarterly periods presented. Because of numerous, simultaneous changes in volume and rate during the period, it is not possible to allocate precisely the changes between volumes and rates. In the following table changes not due solely to volume or to rate have been allocated to these categories based on percentage changes in average volume and average rate as they compare to each other: (in thousands)

Other Income

Other income increased to $2,255,000 in the first quarter of 2012 compared to $2,221,000 the previous year, up 1.5 percent. Service charges, including commissions and fees other than for deposits, were up 12.4 percent in 2012 as a result of higher investment services fees, VISA debit card fees and ATM surcharges. Other operating income increased by 10.5 percent versus 2011. Somewhat offsetting these improvements was a 5.4 percent decline in deposit service charges due to a reduction in Regulation E-related fees.

Other Expense

Other expense for the first quarter of 2012 was $14,605,000, up 6.0 percent from $13,773,000 from the comparable 2011 period. Employee compensation increased 13.8 percent as numerous positions were filled in executive, senior management and support staff, and increases in the cost of health, dental, and other employee benefits were also recorded. Equipment expense increased by 6.2 percent. Outside services expense increased by 29.1 percent as the result of higher consulting expenses and other costs to address internal controls and to assist in the transition of management. Other operating expense increased by 36.0 percent, principally due to non-recurring fees paid in 2012 to Suffolk’s former independent registered public accounting firm. Somewhat offsetting the foregoing increases was a $1,061,000 reduction in FDIC assessment expenses arising from several factors, most notably a new assessment base/calculation that has reduced costs for community banks; deposit growth assumptions included in the FDIC’s original pre-paid assessment estimate that have not been realized by Suffolk; and during the first quarter of 2012, management reassessed the carrying value of the FDIC pre-paid asset and, based on current assumptions, updated its expense estimates by adjusting the expense recorded in the first quarter of 2012. Suffolk expects to record higher quarterly FDIC assessment expenses during the remainder of 2012.

Capital Resources

Stockholders’ equity totaled $135,927,000 at March 31, 2012, versus $136,560,000 at December 31, 2011. Suffolk’s Tangible Common Equity ratio (non-GAAP financial measure) was 9.02 percent at March 31, 2012 and 9.05 percent at December 31, 2011.

Tier 1 Capital (to average assets)		133,716		8.81	%		60,726		4.00	%		75,907		5.00	%

The Bank is subject to individual minimum capital ratios (“IMCR’s”) established by the OCC requiring Tier 1 Leverage Capital equal to at least 8.00 percent of adjusted total assets; Tier 1 Risk-based Capital equal to at least 10.50 percent of risk-weighted assets; and Total Risk Based Capital equal to at least 12.00 percent of risk-weighted assets. At March 31, 2012, management believes the Bank met all of the IMCR’s.

At March 31, 2012, Suffolk Bancorp’s Tier 1 Capital was 8.76 percent of adjusted total assets; Tier 1 Capital was 13.14 percent of risk-weighted assets; Total Risk Based Capital was 14.42 percent of risk-weighted assets.

Credit Risk

Suffolk makes loans based on its evaluation of the creditworthiness of the borrower. Even with careful underwriting, some loans may not be repaid as originally agreed. To provide for this possibility, Suffolk maintains an allowance for loan losses based on an analysis of the performance of the loans in its portfolio. The analysis includes subjective factors based on management’s judgment as well as quantitative evaluation. Estimates should produce an allowance that will provide for a range of losses. According to U.S. GAAP, a financial institution should record its best estimate. Appropriate factors contributing to the estimate may include changes in the composition of the institution’s assets, or potential economic slowdowns or downturns. Also important is the geographical or political environment in which the institution operates.

Suffolk’s management considers all of these factors when determining the provision for loan losses. As required by the Agreement with the OCC, Suffolk is in the process of establishing a program to improve credit risk management and implementing an asset diversification program. Please refer to the discussion of the allowance for loan losses below.

Suffolk has financial and performance letters of credit. Financial letters of credit require Suffolk to make payments if the customer’s financial condition deteriorates, as defined in the agreements. Performance letters of credit require Suffolk to make payments if the customer fails to perform certain non-financial contractual obligations. The maximum potential undiscounted amount of future payments of these letters of credit as of March 31, 2012 is $18,773,000 and they expire as follows: (in thousands)

2012	$	17,372
2013		974
2014		—
2015		85
Thereafter		342
	$	18,773

Amounts due under these letters of credit would be reduced by any proceeds that Suffolk would be able to obtain in liquidating the collateral for the loans, which varies depending on the customer. The allowance for contingent liabilities includes a provision of $418,000 for losses based on the letters of credit outstanding as of March 31, 2012.

As non-performing loans, primarily non-accrual loans, remain non-accruing over a period of time, on the basis of objective and selective criteria, Suffolk may or may not elect to charge these and other loans off prudentially, even when they remain in collection and there is the reasonable remaining expectation of the recovery of amounts owed and expenses incurred in collection. These charge-offs may or may not mirror trends, on a trailing basis, in ratios of non-performing assets to total

Page 30

assets and non-performing loans to total loans. The amounts charged off may be substantial in comparison with Suffolk’s past loss history, although they may result in net recoveries at some point in the future if the economy improves and borrowers’ financial conditions strengthen, although there can be no assurance that this will happen. Further discussion concerning the determination of the provision for loan losses is found in the following under the caption, “Allowance for Loan Losses.”

Critical Accounting Policies, Judgments and Estimates

Suffolk’s accounting and reporting policies conform to U.S. GAAP and general practices within the financial services industry. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Allowance for Loan Losses

Suffolk considers the determination of the allowance for loan losses to involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity than its other significant accounting policies. The allowance for loan losses (“ALLL”) is determined by continuous analysis of the loan portfolio. That analysis includes changes in the size and composition of the portfolio, historical loan losses, industry-wide losses, current and anticipated economic trends, and details about individual loans. It also includes estimates of the actual value of collateral and other possible sources of repayment. Suffolk maintains an ALLL at a level management believes will be adequate to absorb probable losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible, based on an evaluation of their collectibility. However, the determination of the allowance is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates, all of which may be subject to significant change. This happens when it is well past due and the borrower has not shown the ability or intent to make the loan current, or the borrower does not have enough assets to pay the debt, or the value of the collateral is less than the balance of the loan and not likely to improve soon. Residential real estate and consumer loans are analyzed as a group and not individually because of the large number of loans, small balances, and historically low losses. In the future, the provision for loan losses may change as a percentage of total loans. The percentage of net recoveries to average net loans during the three months ended March 31, 2012 was (0.02) percent compared to net charge-offs of 0.31 percent in 2011. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 4.26 percent at March 31, 2012, compared to 4.12 percent at December 31, 2011.

Suffolk’s underwriting standards generally require a loan-to-value ratio of 75 percent or less, and when applicable, a debt coverage ratio of at least 120 percent, at the time a loan is originated. Suffolk has not been directly affected by the increase in defaults of sub-prime mortgages as Suffolk does not originate, or hold in portfolio, sub-prime mortgages. The allowance for loan loss analysis includes changes in the size and composition of the portfolio, Suffolk’s own historical loan losses, current and anticipated economic trends, and details about individual loans. It also includes estimates of the actual value of collateral, other possible sources of repayment and estimates that are susceptible to significant changes due to changes in appraisal values of collateral, national and regional economic conditions, and other factors. The analysis also considers the loan loss history of Suffolk’s peers with similar characteristics. In assessing the adequacy of the allowance, Suffolk reviews its loan portfolio by separate categories which have similar risk and collateral characteristics; e.g. commercial loans, commercial real estate, construction loans, residential mortgages, home equity loans, and consumer loans. Management conducts a monthly analysis of the loan portfolio which evaluates any loan designated as having a high risk profile including but not limited to, loans classified as “Substandard” or “Doubtful” as defined by regulation, loans criticized internally or designated as “Special Mention,” delinquencies, expirations, overdrafts, loans to customers having experienced recent operating losses and loans identified by management as impaired. The analysis is performed to determine the amount of the allowance which would be adequate to absorb probable losses contained in the loan portfolio. The analytical process is regularly reviewed and adjustments may be made based on the assessments of internal and external influences on credit quality. See Note (6), “Allowance for Loan Losses”, to the notes to the unaudited financial statements.

Suffolk believes the allowance is adequate to absorb inherent and known losses in the loan portfolio; however, the determination of the allowance is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates, all of which may be subject to significant changes. When a loan, in full or in part, is deemed uncollectible, it is charged against the allowance. This happens when it is past due and the borrower has not shown the ability or intent to make the loan current, or the borrower does not have enough assets to pay the debt, or the value of the collateral is less than the balance of the loan and not likely to improve soon. In the future, the allowance for loan losses may change as a percentage of total loans. To the extent actual performance differs from management’s estimates, additional provisions for loan losses may be required that would reduce or may substantially reduce earnings in future periods, and no assurances can be given that Suffolk will not sustain loan losses, in any particular period, that are sizable in relation to the allowance for loan losses.

Non-Performing Loans

Generally, recognition of interest income is discontinued when reasonable doubt exists as to whether interest can be collected. Ordinarily, loans no longer accrue interest when 90 days past due. When a loan stops accruing interest, all interest accrued in the current year, but not collected, is reversed against interest income in the current year. Loans start accruing interest again when they become current as to principal and interest, and when, in the opinion of management, they can be collected in full.

The following table shows non-accrual, past due, and restructured loans past due, collectively non-accrual loans, at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011: (in thousands)

	March 31, 2012		December 31, 2011

Loans not accruing interest		83,152		80,760
Restructured loans past due		—		—
Total	$	83,152	$	80,760

Interest on loans that are no longer accruing interest would have amounted to approximately $1,413,000 and $801,000, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 under the contractual terms of those loans. Suffolk records the payment of interest on such loans as a reduction of principal. Suffolk has a formal procedure for internal credit review to more precisely identify risk and exposure in the loan portfolio.

Impaired loans are segregated and reviewed separately. Impaired loans secured by collateral are reviewed based on their collateral and the estimated time required to recover Suffolk’s investment in the loan as well as the cost of doing so, and the estimate of the recovery anticipated. Reserves are allocated to impaired loans based on this review. The allocated reserve is an estimation of losses specific to individual impaired loans. Allocated reserves are established based on an analysis of the most probable sources of repayment and liquidation of collateral. Reserves allocated to impaired loans were $8.2 million and $10.6 million as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. While every non-performing loan is evaluated individually, not every loan requires an allocated reserve. Allocated reserves fluctuate based on changes in the underlying loans, anticipated sources of repayment, and charge-offs.

See also summary of impaired loans in Note (6), Allowance for Loan Losses in the financial statements.

Impairment reserves were assigned to approximately $37,881,000 or 33 percent of our impaired loans as of March 31, 2012. At December 31, 2011, impairment reserves were assigned to approximately $39,796,000 or 33 percent of our impaired loans. Collateral-dependent loans are evaluated for impairment when a loan becomes 90 days past due or another impairment indicator is identified. At the time a loan is evaluated for impairment, an appraisal is ordered from an independent third-party licensed appraiser for loans in excess of $250,000. Typically, it takes approximately 30-90 days to receive and review the appraisal on a commercial real estate mortgage. To date, Suffolk has not experienced any significant delays between ordering appraisals and recognizing charge-offs. While waiting for an updated appraisal, we continue to contact the borrower to arrange a payment plan and monitor for any payment. Since the majority of the collateral securing impaired loans are within our local market, an officer of the Bank may drive by to make an initial assessment of the property’s condition.

At March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, impaired loans totaling $96,921,000 and $97,504,000, respectively, required no associated valuation allowance. For these loans, an evaluation for impairment was completed but, due to the Bank’s collateral position, no valuation allowance was required. The required allowance is calculated based upon the appraisal methodology described above for collateral-dependent loans. For non-collateral-dependent loans, the allowance is based on the present value of future cash flows. As measuring impairment is an estimate which requires judgment, future results of operations may be negatively affected by outcomes different from those estimated.

Page 33

Suffolk evaluates classified and criticized loans that are not impaired by categorizing loans by type of risk and applying reserves based on loan type and corresponding risk. Suffolk also records reserves on Suffolk’s non-criticized and non-classified loan balances. This represents a general allowance for homogeneous loan pools where the loans are not individually evaluated for impairment, though rated according to loan product type and risk rating.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, interest income totaling $771,000 and $4,392,000, respectively, was recognized on impaired loans. Cash basis interest income recognized on those loans during that period was immaterial.

Restructured loans totaling $28,268,000 at March 31, 2012 and $26,475,000 at December 31, 2011 are considered impaired loans. Included in non-performing loans are restructured loans of $21,291,000 at March 31, 2012 that are no longer accruing interest. Subsequent to restructure, there has been $1,665,000 in advances funded on non-performing restructured loans outstanding as of March 31, 2012.

The loans that have been restructured have been modified as to interest rate, due dates, or extension of the maturity date. Restructured loans are considered to be non-accrual loans, if at the time of restructuring the loan was deemed non-accrual. Once a sufficient amount of time has passed, generally three months, if the restructured loan has performed under the modified terms, the loan is returned to accrual status. In addition to the passage of time, we also consider the collateral value and the ability of the borrower to continue to make payments in accordance with the modified terms. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, there were no restructured loans returned to accrual status.

Through both March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we have not performed any commercial real estate (CRE) or other type of loan workouts whereby an existing loan was restructured into multiple new loans.

Page 34

The total balance of OREO, which is recorded at fair value, less estimated selling costs, was $1,800,000 at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

As of March 31, 2012, classified loans amounted to 18.8 percent of total loans, as compared with 19.9 percent at December 31, 2011. The elevated level of classified loans is attributable to the prolonged national and regional economic slowdown, along with a more objective review of the portfolio noted elsewhere in this filing.

Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities

Suffolk recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred income taxes occur when income taxes are allocated through time. Some items are temporary, resulting from differences in the timing of a transaction under generally accepted accounting principles, and for the computation of income tax. Examples would include the future tax effects of temporary differences for such items as deferred compensation and the provision for loan losses. Estimates of deferred tax assets are based upon evidence available to management that future realization is more likely than not. If management determines that Suffolk may be unable to realize all or part of net deferred tax assets in the future, a direct charge to income tax expense may be required to reduce the recorded value of the net deferred tax asset to the amount that management expects to realize. At March 31, 2012, Suffolk believes the deferred tax asset is fully realizable.

Investment Securities

Suffolk evaluates unrealized losses on securities to determine if any reduction in the fair value is other than temporary. This amount will continue to be dependent on market conditions, the occurrence of certain events or changes in circumstances of the issuer of the security, and Suffolk’s intent and ability to hold the impaired investment at the time the valuation is made. If management determines that impairment in the investment’s value is other than temporary, earnings would be charged.

Page 35

Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market Risk

Suffolk originates and invests in interest-earning assets and solicits interest-bearing deposit accounts. Suffolk’s operations are subject to market risk resulting from fluctuations in interest rates to the extent that there is a difference between the amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that are prepaid, withdrawn, mature, or re-priced in any given period of time. Suffolk’s earnings or the net value of its portfolio (the present value of expected cash flows from liabilities) will change when interest rates change. The principal objective of Suffolk’s asset/liability management program is to maximize net interest income while keeping risks acceptable. These risks include both the effect of changes in interest rates, and risks to liquidity. The program also provides guidance to management in funding Suffolk’s investment in loans and securities. Suffolk’s exposure to interest-rate risk has not changed substantially since December 31, 2011.

Business Risks and Uncertainties

This report contains some statements that look to the future. These may include remarks about Suffolk Bancorp, the banking industry, the economy in general, expectations of the business environment in which Suffolk operates, projections of future performance, and potential future credit experience. These forward-looking statements are based upon current management expectations, and may, therefore, involve risks and uncertainties that cannot be predicted or quantified and are beyond Suffolk’s control and are subject to a variety of uncertainties that could cause future results to vary materially from Suffolk’s historical performance, or from current expectations. Factors affecting Suffolk include particularly, but are not limited to: changes in interest rates; increases or decreases in retail and commercial economic activity in Suffolk’s market area; variations in the ability and propensity of consumers and businesses to borrow, repay, or deposit money, or to use other banking and financial services; results of regulatory examinations; any failure by us to comply with our written agreement with the OCC or the individual minimum capital ratios for the Bank established by the OCC; the cost of compliance with the Agreement; failure by us to restore and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures; potential litigation or regulatory action relating to the matters resulting in our failure to file this Form 10-Q on time or resulting from the revisions to our earnings previously announced on April 12, 2011 or the restatement of our financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 and year ended December 31, 2010; and the potential that net charge-offs are higher than expected. Further, it could take Suffolk longer than anticipated to implement its strategic plans to increase revenue and manage non-interest expense, or it may not be possible to implement those plans at all. Finally, new and unanticipated legislation, regulation, or accounting standards may require Suffolk to change its practices in ways that materially change the results of operations.

Item 4 - Controls and Procedures

Suffolk’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (collectively, the “Certifying Officers”) evaluated the effectiveness of Suffolk’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of March 31, 2012 in connection with the filing of the initial Form 10-Q for that period.

The Certifying Officers evaluated the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2012. Based on that evaluation, and in light of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that existed throughout this quarter as described below, management concluded that Suffolk’s disclosure and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2012.

Suffolk’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act.

Because of their inherent limitations, systems of internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

A “material weakness” in internal control over financial reporting is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected in a timely basis by Suffolk’s internal controls.

Material Weaknesses In Internal Control

Page 36

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

Estimating the allowance for loan losses requires credit administration staff to identify and evaluate borrowers’ ability to repay their obligations through periodic evaluation and reevaluation of cash flow and/or collateral, and, when necessary, making provision for the amount deemed being likely not to be repaid. Suffolk identified deficiencies within the credit administration function which compromised the operational effectiveness of the internal controls, particularly in making timely reevaluations of credit and/or collateral. This led to management’s determination that there was a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting in estimating the allowance for loan losses.

Financial Reporting Staffing Resources

Management concluded that a material weakness exists due to insufficient staffing resources that are in dedicated permanent positions within the accounting function with sufficient skills and industry knowledge of U.S. GAAP and regulatory accounting, which resulted in insufficient documentation and monitoring over the financial reporting cycle, including preparing financial statements and disclosures. Among other factors identified, approximately six months have passed since the prior Chief Financial Officer resigned as of June 24, 2011. Suffolk immediately engaged an interim accounting consultant to assist with financial reporting in the meantime; however, the individual is not an officer of Suffolk. Suffolk’s President and Chief Executive Officer was appointed as Acting Chief Financial Officer on June 27, 2011. Suffolk filled the position on February 2, 2012.

Interdepartmental Communications

A material weakness exists due to insufficient communications at the interdepartmental levels. There was inconsistent exchange of important financial information between Suffolk’s accounting and operating functions that led to errors in classifying loans as performing loans when the loans were non-performing. This was one factor resulting in the allowance for loan and lease losses to be understated as of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2010.

Governance and Management Accountability

The Board of Directors is responsible for competent and effective oversight and leadership of the Company’s management and to ensure accountability of management. The material weaknesses related to the allowance for loan and lease losses, financial reporting staffing resources and interdepartmental communications, as well as delays in processes surrounding the completion of restated and current financial statements, and the untimely correction of deficiencies previously identified by regulators, are reflective of a material weakness in the Board of Directors as it relates to the foregoing matters.

Suffolk has implemented certain changes in its internal controls as of the date of this report to address the material weaknesses. Specifically, management took the following steps to remediate the material weaknesses set forth above:

Allowances for Loan and Lease Losses

1. Hired a new Chief Lending Officer during the second quarter of 2011. During the first quarter of 2012, the Chief Lending Officer was promoted into the newly created position of Chief Credit Officer. As Chief Credit Officer, the position’s responsibilities include credit administration, credit review, and loan workout.

2. Hired a new, highly-experienced Chief Lending Officer during the first quarter of 2012.

3. Improved staff by hiring a new loan administrator, additional underwriting staff and a loan workout specialist.

4. Reorganized the credit department to ensure appropriate separation of duties and developed expanded training for Suffolk’s lenders.

5. Hired a senior credit officer to run a newly created separate loan review and workout department.

6. Changed Suffolk’s credit policy to require identification of concentrations of risk, analysis of our customer’s global cash flows, re-appraisal and re-evaluation of collateral, more accurate and timely credit-risk rating procedures and improved underwriting processes and standards.

7. Incorporated the results of a systematic re-appraisal of commercial real estate which secures loans in excess of $1 million.

Page 37

8. Engaged qualified outside consultants to assist in re-evaluating risk ratings.

9. Improved the processes for identifying loans and the determination of the amount of impairment.

10. Augmented Suffolk’s credit policy to govern loan workout.

11. Implemented a new policy and procedure to ensure that OREO was accounted for in accordance with US GAAP.

Financial Reporting Staffing Resources

12. During the first quarter of 2012, hired a qualified and highly-experienced Chief Financial Officer with sufficient knowledge of US GAAP, regulatory accounting and the banking industry and the skills to effectively implement that knowledge.

13. During the first quarter of 2012, hired a qualified and highly-experienced Comptroller with sufficient knowledge of US GAAP, regulatory accounting, and the banking industry and the skills to effectively implement that knowledge.

14. Increased oversight of the financial reporting process through the Audit Committee and the Compliance Committee, the latter of which meets at least monthly or more often.

15. Created and filled the new position of Treasurer to further relieve the Chief Financial Officer of day-to-day duties in asset liability management, investment portfolio management and additional treasury functions.

16. Enhanced procedures to ensure that all reconciliations of all departments are completed and reviewed to ensure accuracy.

17. Compiled individual policies into comprehensive written policies and procedures for the accounting function which will include specific policies, procedures and controls for financial reporting.

18. Increased automation of the accounting and financial reporting process to free staff resources to focus on financial reporting.

Interdepartmental Communications

19. Established a process for both credit and finance staff to review the computation of specific impairment allowances under ASC 310-10 – Receivables – Impairment of a Loan and established enhanced reporting from core systems available directly to personnel in accounting and finance.

Governance and Management Accountability

20. Hired a new, qualified, and highly-experienced President and Chief Executive Officer effective December 31, 2011.

21. Formed a Compliance Committee of the Board to oversee compliance and, later, to respond to the Agreement with the OCC.

22. Implemented procedures to track all regulatory compliance through structured matrices.

23. Engaged qualified independent consultants to assist with compliance with the Agreement with the OCC, including an assessment of key management roles.

24. Outsourced the internal audit function to a qualified risk management firm to provide greater independence and depth to the function.

25. Appointed a Vice Chairman of the Board to provide daily oversight of management on behalf of the full Board and to communicate back to the Board.

Suffolk cannot determine the impact of the remediation steps at the time of filing of this report.

PART II

Item 1 - Legal Proceedings

On July 11, 2011 a shareholder derivative action, Robert J. Levy v. J. Gordon Huszagh, et al., No. 11 Civ. 3321 (JS), was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York against certain current and former directors of Suffolk and a former officer of Suffolk. Suffolk was named as a nominal defendant. The complaint seeks damages against the individual defendants in an unspecified amount, and alleges that the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties by making improper statements regarding the sufficiency of Suffolk’s allowance for loan losses and loan portfolio credit quality, and by failing to establish sufficient allowances for loan losses and to establish effective credit risk management policies. On September 30, 2011, Suffolk and the current and former director defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint.

On October 28, 2011, a separate shareholder derivative action, Susan Forbush v. Edgar F. Goodale, et al., No. 33538/11, was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of Suffolk, against certain current and former directors of Suffolk and a former officer of Suffolk. Suffolk was named as a nominal defendant. The complaint asserts claims that are substantially similar to those asserted in the Levy action. On February 17, 2012, the defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaint.

On October 20, 2011, a putative shareholder class action, James E. Fisher v. Suffolk Bancorp, et al., No. 11 Civ. 5114 (SJ), was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York against Suffolk, its former chief executive officer, and a former chief financial officer of Suffolk. The complaint alleges that the defendants violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by knowingly or recklessly making false statements about, or failing to disclose accurate information about, Suffolk’s financial results and condition, loan loss reserves, impaired assets, internal and disclosure controls, and banking practices. The complaint seeks damages in an unspecified amount on behalf of purchasers of Suffolk’s common stock between March 12, 2010 and August 10, 2011.

The foregoing matters are in their preliminary phases and it is not possible to ascertain whether there is a reasonable possibility of a loss from these matters. Therefore we have concluded that an amount for a loss contingency is not to be accrued or disclosed at this time. Suffolk believes that it has substantial defenses to the claims filed against it in these lawsuits and, to the extent that these actions proceed, Suffolk intends to defend itself vigorously.

Suffolk has been informed that the SEC’s New York regional office is conducting an informal inquiry to determine whether there have been violations of the federal securities laws in connection with Suffolk’s financial reporting. The SEC has not asserted that any federal securities law violation has occurred. Suffolk believes it is in compliance with all federal securities laws and believes it has cooperated fully with the SEC’s informal inquiry. Although the ultimate outcome of the informal inquiry cannot be ascertained at this time, based upon information that presently is available to it, Suffolk does not believe that the informal inquiry, when resolved, will have a material adverse effect on Suffolk’s results of operations or financial condition.

Item 1A - Risk Factors

There are no material changes from any of the risk factors previously disclosed in Suffolk’s 2011 Form 10-K in response to Part I, Item 1A, except as follows:

The Bank is subject to individual minimum capital ratios (“IMCR’s”) established by the OCC requiring Tier 1 Leverage Capital equal to at least 8.00 percent of adjusted total assets; Tier 1 Risk-based Capital equal to at least 10.50 percent of risk-weighted assets; and Total Risk Based Capital equal to at least 12.00 percent of risk-weighted assets. The Bank met all three IMCR’s at March 31, 2012: Tier 1 Capital was 8.73 percent of adjusted total assets, Tier 1 Capital was 13.10 percent of risk-weighted assets, and Total Risk Based Capital was 14.38 percent of risk-weighted assets. Further increases to Suffolk’s allowance for loan losses, however, would negatively impact the Bank’s capital levels and make it difficult to maintain the capital levels directed by the OCC. If the Bank fails to maintain the required capital levels, it could be subject to further regulatory enforcement actions.

The revisions to Suffolk’s earnings previously announced on April 12, 2011, and the restatement of Suffolk’s financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 and the year ended December 31, 2010, has resulted in additional costs to Suffolk and may cause Suffolk to incur further costs or result in regulatory action or litigation against Suffolk which could adversely affect its results of operation or financial condition.

On April 12, 2011, Suffolk released preliminary earnings for the first quarter of 2011. Following that release, but prior to the regulatory deadline to file its Form 10-Q, management identified possible deficiencies and/or weaknesses in Suffolk’s internal controls with respect to credit administration and credit risk management, primarily with respect to the timing of the recognition of credit risk, as well as with regard to risk rating which affected the computation of the allowance for loan losses. On May 11, 2011, Suffolk announced that it would be delayed in filing its Form 10-Q. Suffolk retained independent consultants specializing in the evaluation and computation of the allowance for loan losses that conducted an independent review of Suffolk’s loan files with respect to the correct risk-rating of credits, and to the extent possible, to evaluate when that rating might correctly have been determined, and finally, where applicable, what the correct specific impairment allowance should be. The result of the reevaluation and re-computation of the allowance for loan losses was an increase in the specific impairment allowances, offset by a decrease in the qualitative reserve percentages, resulting in an overall increase in the total allowance over that announced on April 12, 2011. On August 12, 2011, Suffolk announced that the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors had concluded that Suffolk’s previously issued financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010 and the quarter ended September 30, 2010, as reported in Suffolk’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, respectively, should no longer be relied upon due to an understatement of its allowance for loan losses in such periods. The reevaluation and restatement process has resulted in additional costs to Suffolk and may cause Suffolk to incur further costs that could adversely affect its results of operation or financial condition. The revisions to our earnings previously announced on April 12, 2011 and the restatement of our financial statements may also result in regulatory action or litigation against Suffolk, which could adversely affect our results of operation or financial condition.

A failure to restore and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures could have a material adverse effect on our results of operation or financial condition

During April 2011, management identified possible deficiencies and/or weaknesses in Suffolk’s internal controls related to the design and implementation of policies to promptly identify problem loans and to quantify the elements of risk in problem loans. After conducting an internal review, management determined that there were material weaknesses related to the allowance for loan and lease losses, financial reporting staffing resources, interdepartmental communications and governance and management accountability. See Part I, Item 4—Controls and Procedures. Suffolk has incurred costs and implemented certain changes in its internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures to address these material weaknesses. It is too early to determine the impact of these remediation steps and Suffolk has not yet determined that it has restored effective internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. It is possible that additional deficiencies or weaknesses could be identified A failure to restore and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures could have a material adverse effect on our results of operation or financial condition.

Potential impairment in the carrying value of our goodwill could negatively impact our earnings and capital.

At March 31, 2012, we had goodwill totaling $814,000. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Given the current economic environment, we could be required to evaluate the recoverability of goodwill prior to our normal annual assessment if we experience disruption in our business and/or sustained market capitalization declines. These types of events and the resulting analyses could result in goodwill impairment charges in the future. These non-cash impairment charges could adversely affect our results of operations in future periods.

Basis Of Presentation

(1) Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Suffolk Bancorp ("Suffolk") and its consolidated subsidiaries, primarily Suffolk County National Bank (the "Bank"), have been prepared to reflect all adjustments (consisting solely of normally recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented. Certain information and footnotes normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted. Notwithstanding, management believes that the disclosures are adequate to prevent the information from misleading the reader, particularly when the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the remainder of the year.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period's presentation.

Income Taxes

(9) Income Taxes

Suffolk uses an asset and liability approach to accounting for income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are recognized if it is more likely than not that a future benefit will be realized. It is management's position that no valuation allowance is necessary against any of Suffolk's deferred tax assets. Suffolk accounts for income taxes in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 740, "Income Taxes," which prescribes the recognition and measurement criteria related to tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Suffolk had unrecognized tax benefits including interest of approximately $38,000 as of March 31, 2012. Suffolk recognizes interest and penalties accrued relating to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

Regulatory Matters [Abstract]

Regulatory Matters

(10) Regulatory Matters

On October 25, 2010, the Bank, following discussion with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the "OCC") entered into an agreement with the OCC (the "Agreement"). The Agreement requires the Bank to take certain actions, including a review of management, the establishment of a three-year strategic plan and capital program, and the establishment of programs related to internal audit, maintaining an adequate allowance for loan losses, real property appraisal, credit risk management, credit concentrations, Bank Secrecy Act compliance and information technology.

Management and the board of directors are committed to taking all necessary actions to promptly address the requirements of the Agreement, and believe that the Bank has already made measurable progress in addressing these requirements. In connection with the foregoing, the Bank has retained legal and other resources including the services of a qualified compliance consultant to assist and advise in meeting the requirements of the Agreement.

The Bank is subject to individual minimum capital ratios ("IMCR's") established by the OCC requiring Tier 1 Leverage Capital equal to at least 8.00 percent of adjusted total assets; Tier 1 Risk-based Capital equal to at least 10.50 percent of risk-weighted assets; and Total Risk Based Capital equal to at least 12.00 percent of risk-weighted assets. Management believes the Bank met all three IMCR's at March 31, 2012: Tier 1 Capital was 8.73 percent of adjusted total assets; Tier 1 Capital was 13.10 percent of risk-weighted assets; Total Risk Based Capital was 14.38 percent of risk-weighted assets. 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 Bank's financial statements.

At March 31, 2012, Suffolk Bancorp's Tier 1 capital ratio was 8.76 percent of adjusted total assets, Tier 1 capital ratio was 13.14 percent of risk-weighted assets, and Total Risk Based capital ratio was 14.42 percent of risk-weighted assets.

The ability of the Bank to pay dividends to Suffolk is subject to certain regulatory restrictions. Generally, dividends declared in a given year by a national bank are limited to its net profit, as defined by regulatory agencies, for that year, combined with its retained net income for the preceding two years, less any required transfer to surplus or to fund for the retirement of any preferred stock of which the Bank has none as of March 31, 2012. In addition, a national bank may not pay any dividends in an amount greater than its undivided profits and a national bank may not declare any dividends if such declaration would leave the Bank inadequately capitalized. Therefore, the ability of the Bank to declare dividends will depend on its future net income and capital requirements. In addition, under the Agreement the Bank is required to establish a dividend policy that will permit the declaration of a dividend only when the Bank is in compliance with its capital program and with the prior written determination of no supervisory objection by the OCC.

While subject to the Agreement, Suffolk expects that its and the Bank's management and board of directors will be required to focus a substantial amount of time on complying with its terms. There also is no guarantee that the Bank will be able to fully comply with the Agreement. If the Bank fails to comply with the terms of the Agreement, it could be subject to further regulatory enforcement actions.

See also Note 13 of Suffolk's December 31, 2011 Form 10-K for a complete description of the Agreement with the OCC.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment ("OTTI") at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. All of the Company's investment securities classified as available-for-sale or held-to-maturity are evaluated for OTTI under SFAS 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities."

In determining OTTI under the ASC 320 model, management considers many factors, including: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions, and (4) whether the entity has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. The assessment of whether an other-than-temporary decline exists involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and is based on information available to management at a point in time. An OTTI is deemed to have occurred if there has been an adverse change in the remaining expected future cash flows.

When an OTTI occurs under the model, the amount of the OTTI recognized in earnings depends on whether an entity intends to sell the security or more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period credit loss. If an entity intends to sell or more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period credit loss, the OTTI shall be recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the investment's amortized cost basis and its fair value at the balance sheet date. If an entity does not intend to sell the security and it is not more likely than not that the entity will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period loss, the OTTI shall be separated into the amount representing the credit loss and the amount related to all other factors. The amount of the total OTTI related to the credit loss is determined based on the present value of cash flows expected to be collected and is recognized in earnings. The amount of the total OTTI related to other factors shall be recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable tax benefit. The previous amortized cost basis less the OTTI recognized in earnings shall become the new amortized cost basis of the investment.

The unrealized losses in Suffolk's collateralized mortgage obligations at March 31, 2012 were caused by changes in interest rates, a significant widening of credit spreads across markets for these securities, and illiquidity in the financial markets for these instruments. These securities include two non-agency private label issues held at a continuous, unrealized loss for twelve months or longer and are either super-senior or senior in tranche structure. Each of these securities has some level of credit enhancement, and none are collateralized by sub-prime loans. With the assistance of a third party, management reviews the characteristics of these securities periodically, including levels of delinquency and foreclosure, projected losses at various degrees of severity, and credit enhancement and coverage. Based on the aforementioned periodic analysis, it was determined that no securities had additional impairment at March 31, 2012.

The following table summarizes the two non-agency, private label collateralized mortgage obligation securities, by year of vintage with OTTI, credit ratings and related credit losses recognized in earnings at March 31, 2012. Management determined the estimated fair values for each security based on discounted cash flow analyses using the Intex Desktop Valuation model. Management explicitly calculates the credit component utilizing conditional default and loss severity vectors with the Intex model. Management relies on FASB ASC paragraph 820-10-55-5 to provide guidance on the discount rates to be used when a market is not active. According to the standard, the discount rate should take into account all of the following factors:

• The time value of money (risk-free rate)

• Price for bearing the uncertainty in the cash flows (risk premium)

• Other case-specific factors that would be considered by market participants, including a liquidity adjustment.

Weighted average key assumptions utilized in the valuations were as follows:

• Discount Rate – 10.5%

• Voluntary Prepayments – 16.2%

• Conditional Default Rates – 10.1% for the first 24 months, then trending downward in a linear fashion for the following 12 months, then to zero through approximately 17 years.

• Loss Severity – 54.8% trending downward to terminal loss severities of 23%, in a linear fashion, at 2.5% per year.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements of Suffolk's collateralized mortgage obligations are voluntary prepayment rates, conditional default rates and loss severity in the event of default. Significant increases or decreases in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. Generally, a change in the assumption used for the conditional default rates is accompanied by a directionally similar change in the assumption used for the loss severity and a directionally opposite change in the assumption used for voluntary prepayment rates.

Fair Value [Abstract]

Fair Value

(3) Fair Value

Suffolk records investments available for sale, other real estate owned ("OREO"), mortgage servicing rights and impaired loans at fair value. Fair value measurement is determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability in an exchange. The definition of fair value includes the exchange price which is the price in an orderly transaction between market participants to sell an asset or transfer a liability in the principal market for the asset or liability. Market participant assumptions include assumptions about risk, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique, as well as the effect of credit risk on the fair value of liabilities. Suffolk uses three levels of the fair value inputs to measure assets, as described below.

Basis of Fair Value Measurement:

Level 1 – Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.

Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include: (i) quoted prices for similar investments in active markets; (ii) quoted prices for identical investments traded in non-active markets (i.e., dealer or broker markets); and (iii) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or inputs derived from or corroborated by market data for substantially the full term of the investment.

Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable, supported by little or no market activity, and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

The following table presents the carrying amounts and fair values of Suffolk's financial instruments. FASB ASC 825, "Financial Instruments," defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation: (in thousands)

	Level in Fair Value Hierarchy		March 31, 2012				December 31, 2011
			Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Cash & cash equivalents		Level 1	$	213,454	$	213,454	$	172,559	$	172,559
Total loans		Level 2		939,736		968,654		969,654		1,000,028

Accrued interest payable		Level 2		348		348		348		348

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time and may be based on judgments regarding losses expected in the future, risk, and other factors that are subjective in nature. The methods and assumptions used to produce the fair value estimates follow.

Short-term financial instruments are valued at the carrying amounts included in the condensed consolidated statements of condition, which are reasonable estimates of fair value due to the relatively short term nature of the instruments. This approach applies to cash and cash equivalents; accrued interest and loan fees receivable; non-interest-bearing demand deposits; N.O.W., money market, and saving accounts; and accrued interest payable.

Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar characteristics. Loans are segregated by type. The fair value of performing loans was calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through their estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk of the loan. Estimated maturity is based on the Bank's history of repayments for each type of loan and an estimate of the effect of the current economy. Fair value for significant non-performing loans is based on recent external appraisals of collateral, if any. If appraisals are not available, estimated cash flows are discounted using a rate commensurate with the associated risk. Assumptions regarding credit risk, cash flows, and discount rates are made using available market information and specific borrower information.

(1) Mortgage servicing rights are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Impaired loans are evaluated and valued at the time the loan is identified as impaired. The loans are measured based on the value of the collateral securing these loans, or techniques that are not based on market activity for loans that are not collateral dependent and require management's judgment. Collateral may be real estate and/or business assets including equipment, inventory and/or accounts receivable. The value of real estate collateral is determined based on appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers hired by Suffolk. The value of business equipment may be based on an appraisal by qualified licensed appraisers hired by Suffolk if significant, or may be valued based on the equipment's net book value on the business' financial statements. Inventory and accounts receivable collateral may be valued based on independent field examiner review or aging reports, if significant. Reviews by field examiners may be conducted based on the loan exposure and reliance on this type of collateral. Appraised and reported values may be discounted based on management's historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation, and/or management's expertise and knowledge of the client and client's business. Impaired loans are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly, based on the same factors identified above.

The following tables summarize the valuation of financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the condensed consolidated statements of condition at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, including the additional requirement to segregate classifications to correspond to the major security type classifications utilized for disclosure purposes: (in thousands)

The types of instruments valued based on quoted market prices in active markets include most U.S. government debt and agency debt securities. Such instruments are generally classified within level 1 and level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Suffolk does not adjust the quoted price for such instruments.

The types of instruments valued based on quoted prices in markets that are not active, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency include state and municipal obligations, mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations. Such instruments are generally classified within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

FASB ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures," provides additional guidance in determining fair values when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased, particularly when there is no active market or where the price inputs being used represent distressed sales. It also provides guidelines for making fair value measurements more consistent with principles, reaffirming the need to use judgment to ascertain if a formerly active market has become inactive and in determining fair values when markets become inactive.

The fair value of certificates of deposit less than $250,000 is calculated by discounting cash flows with applicable origination rates. At March 31, 2012, the fair value of certificates of deposit less than $250,000 totaling $159,985,000 had a carrying value of $158,288,000. The fair value of certificates of deposit of $250,000 or more totaling $107,780,000 had a carrying value of $107,232,000 at the same date.

The fair value of commitments to extend credit was estimated by either discounting cash flows or using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the current creditworthiness of the counterparties.

The estimated fair value of written financial guarantees and letters of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements. The contractual amounts of these commitments were $18,773,000 and $19,842,000 at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The fees charged for the commitments were not material in amount.

Legal Proceedings

(11) Legal Proceedings

On July 11, 2011 a shareholder derivative action, Robert J. Levy v. J. Gordon Huszagh, et al., No. 11 Civ. 3321 (JS), was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York against certain current and former directors of Suffolk and a former officer of Suffolk. Suffolk was named as a nominal defendant. The complaint seeks damages against the individual defendants in an unspecified amount, and alleges that the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties by making improper statements regarding the sufficiency of Suffolk's allowance for loan losses and loan portfolio credit quality, and by failing to establish sufficient allowances for loan losses and to establish effective credit risk management policies. On September 30, 2011, Suffolk and the current and former director defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint.

On October 28, 2011, a separate shareholder derivative action, Susan Forbush v. Edgar F. Goodale, et al., No. 33538/11, was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of Suffolk, against certain current and former directors of Suffolk and a former officer of Suffolk. Suffolk was named as a nominal defendant. The complaint asserts claims that are substantially similar to those asserted in the Levy action. On February 17, 2012, the defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaint.

On October 20, 2011, a putative shareholder class action, James E. Fisher v. Suffolk Bancorp, et al., No. 11 Civ. 5114 (SJ), was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York against Suffolk, its former chief executive officer, and a former chief financial officer of Suffolk. The complaint alleges that the defendants violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by knowingly or recklessly making false statements about, or failing to disclose accurate information about, Suffolk's financial results and condition, loan loss reserves, impaired assets, internal and disclosure controls, and banking practices. The complaint seeks damages in an unspecified amount on behalf of purchasers of Suffolk's common stock between March 12, 2010 and August 10, 2011.

The foregoing matters are in their preliminary phases and it is not possible to ascertain whether there is a reasonable possibility of a loss from these matters. Therefore we have concluded that an amount for a loss contingency is not to be accrued or disclosed at this time. Suffolk believes that it has substantial defenses to the claims filed against it in these lawsuits and, to the extent that these actions proceed, Suffolk intends to defend itself vigorously.

Suffolk has been informed that the SEC's New York regional office is conducting an informal inquiry to determine whether there have been violations of the federal securities laws in connection with Suffolk's financial reporting. The SEC has not asserted that any federal securities law violation has occurred. Suffolk believes it is in compliance with all federal securities laws and believes it has cooperated fully with the SEC's informal inquiry. Although the ultimate outcome of the informal inquiry cannot be ascertained at this time, based upon information that presently is available to it, Suffolk does not believe that the informal inquiry, when resolved, will have a material adverse effect on Suffolk's results of operations or financial condition.

Allowance For Loan Losses

Allowance For Loan Losses [Abstract]

Allowance For Loan Losses

(6) 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 un-collectibility 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, 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.

A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that Suffolk will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Loans for which the terms have been modified resulting in a concession, and for which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, are considered troubled debt restructurings and classified as impaired. Generally, troubled debt restructurings are initially classified as non-accrual until sufficient time has passed to assess whether the restructured loan will continue to perform. Generally, Suffolk returns a troubled-debt restructuring to accrual status upon six months of performance under the new terms.

Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower's prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.

Commercial and commercial real estate loans over $250,000 are individually evaluated for impairment. 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 homogeneous loans with smaller individual balances, such as consumer and residential real estate loans, are evaluated collectively for impairment, and accordingly, are not separately identified for impairment disclosures. Troubled debt restructurings are separately identified for impairment disclosures and are measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan's effective rate at inception. If a troubled debt restructuring is considered to be "collateral-dependent," the loan is reported, net, at the fair value of the collateral. For troubled debt restructurings that subsequently default, Suffolk determines the amount of reserve in accordance with the accounting policy for the allowance for loan losses.

The general component covers non impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience, adjusted for qualitative factors. The historical loss experience is determined by portfolio segment, and is based on the actual loss history experienced by Suffolk over the historical loan loss period which is a rolling twelve month period. This actual loss experience is supplemented with other qualitative factors based on the risks present for each portfolio segment. These qualitative factors include consideration of the following: levels of and trends in delinquencies and impaired loans; levels of and trends in charge-offs and recoveries; trends in volume and terms of loans; effects of any changes in risk selection and underwriting standards; other changes in lending policies, procedures and practices; experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff; national and local economic trends and conditions; industry conditions; and effects of changes in credit concentrations. The following portfolio segments have been identified:

• Commercial, financial & agricultural loans

• Commercial real estate mortgages

• Real estate — construction loans

• Residential mortgages (1st and 2nd liens)

• Home equity loans

• Consumer loans

In addition, qualitative factors are considered for areas of concern that cannot be fully quantified in the allocation based on historical net charge-off ratios. Qualitative factors include:

• Economic outlook

• Trends in delinquency and problem loans

• Changes in loan volume and nature of terms of loans

• Effects of changes in lending policy

• Experience, ability, and depth of lending management and staff

• Concentrations of credit

• Board and loan review oversight

• Changes in value of underlying collateral

• Competition, regulation, and other external factors

For performing loans, an estimate of adequacy is made by applying qualitative factors specific to the portfolio to the period-end balances. Consideration is also given to the type and collateral of the loans with particular attention paid to commercial real estate construction loans, due to the inherent risk of this type of loan. Allocated and general reserves are available for any identified loss.

Delinquent, non-performing, and classified loans have trended upward in recent quarters. These are primary factors in the determination of the allowance.

At March 31, 2012, non-performing loans, including non-accrual loans and loans contractually past due 90 days or more with regard to payment of principal and/or interest, totaled $83,152,000 as compared to $80,760,000 at December 31, 2011. When compared to total loans, non-performing loans rose to 8.8 percent at March 31, 2012, up from 8.3 percent at December 31, 2011. An increase in commercial non-accrual loans was primarily responsible for the growth in total non-accrual loans at March 31, 2012.

Credit Quality Information

The Bank utilizes an eight-grade risk-rating system for commercial loans, commercial real estate and construction loans. Loans in risk grades 1-4 are considered "pass" loans. The Bank's risk grades are as follows:

Risk Grade 1 Excellent:

Loans secured by liquid collateral, such as certificates of deposit, reputable bank letters of credit, or other cash equivalents; loans that are guaranteed or otherwise backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government or an agency thereof, such as the Small Business Administration; or loans to any publicly held company with a current long-term debt rating of A or better.

Risk Grade 2 Good:

Loans to businesses that have strong financial statements containing an unqualified opinion from a CPA firm and at least three consecutive years of profits; loans supported by un-audited financial statements containing strong balance sheets, five consecutive years of profits, a five-year satisfactory relationship with the Bank, and key balance sheet and income statement trends that are either stable or positive; loans secured by publicly traded marketable securities where there is no impediment to liquidation; loans to individuals backed by liquid personal assets, established credit history, and unquestionable character; or loans to publicly held companies with current long-term debt ratings of Baa or better.

Risk Grade 3 Satisfactory:

Loans supported by financial statements (audited or un-audited) that indicate average or slightly below average risk and having some deficiency or vulnerability to changing economic conditions; loans with some weakness but offsetting features of other support are readily available; loans that are meeting the terms of repayment, but which may be susceptible to deterioration if adverse factors are encountered.

Loans may be graded Satisfactory when there is no recent information on which to base a current risk evaluation and the following conditions apply:

• At inception, the loan was properly underwritten, did not possess an unwarranted level of credit risk, and the loan met the above criteria for a risk grade of Excellent, Good, or Satisfactory;

• At inception, the loan was secured with collateral possessing a loan value adequate to protect the Bank from loss.

• The loan has exhibited two or more years of satisfactory repayment with a reasonable reduction of the principal balance.

• During the period that the loan has been outstanding, there has been no evidence of any credit weakness. Some examples of weakness include slow payment, lack of cooperation by the borrower, breach of loan covenants, or

• The borrower is in an industry known to be experiencing problems. If any of these credit weaknesses is observed, a lower risk grade may be warranted.

Risk Grade 4 Satisfactory/Monitored:

Loans in this category are considered to be of acceptable credit quality, but contain greater credit risk than satisfactory loans due to weak balance sheets, marginal earnings or cash flow, or other uncertainties. These loans warrant a higher than average level of monitoring to ensure that weaknesses do not advance. The level of risk in a Satisfactory/Monitored loan is within acceptable underwriting guidelines so long as the loan is given the proper level of management supervision.

Risk Grade 5 Special Mention:

Loans which possess some credit deficiency or potential weakness which deserves close attention. Such loans pose an unwarranted financial risk that, if not corrected, could weaken the loan by adversely impacting the future repayment ability of the borrower. The key distinctions of a Special Mention classification are that (1) it is indicative of an unwarranted level of risk and (2) weaknesses are considered "potential," not "defined," impairments to the primary source of repayment.

Risk Grade 6 Substandard:

One or more of the following characteristics may be exhibited in loans classified Substandard:

• Loans which possess a defined credit weakness. The likelihood that a loan will be paid from the primary source of repayment is uncertain. Financial deterioration is under way and very close attention is warranted to ensure that the loan is collected without loss.

• Loans are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor.

• The primary source of repayment is gone, and the Bank is forced to rely on a secondary source of repayment, such as collateral liquidation or guarantees.

• Loans have a distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if deficiencies are not corrected.

• Unusual courses of action are needed to maintain a high probability of repayment.

• The borrower is not generating enough cash flow to repay loan principal; however, it continues to make interest payments.

• The lender is forced into a subordinated or unsecured position due to flaws in documentation.

• Loans have been restructured so that payment schedules, terms, and collateral represent concessions to the borrower when compared to the normal loan terms.

• The lender is seriously contemplating foreclosure or legal action due to the apparent deterioration in the loan.

• There is a significant deterioration in market conditions to which the borrower is highly vulnerable.

Risk Grade 7 Doubtful:

One or more of the following characteristics may be present in loans classified Doubtful:

• Loans have all of the weaknesses of those classified as Substandard. However, based on existing conditions, these weaknesses make full collection of principal highly improbable.

• The primary source of repayment is gone, and there is considerable doubt as to the quality of the secondary source of repayment.

• The possibility of loss is high but because of certain important pending factors which may strengthen the loan, loss classification is deferred until the exact status of repayment is known.

Risk Grade 8 Loss:

Loans are considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuing to carry them as assets is not feasible. Loans will be classified Loss when it is neither practical nor desirable to defer writing off or reserving all or a portion of a basically worthless asset, even though partial recovery may be possible at some time in the future.

The Bank considers real estate, home equity and consumer loans secured by real estate (such as mobile homes) that are contractually past due 90 days or more or where legal action has commenced against the borrower to be substandard. The Bank follows the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council ("FFIEC") Uniform Retail Credit Classification guidelines.

The Bank reviews formally, annually, the ratings on all commercial and industrial, commercial real estate and construction loans greater than $1 million. Quarterly, the Bank engages an independent third-party to review a significant portion of loans within these segments. Management uses the results of these reviews as part of its annual review process.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation [Abstract]

Stock-Based Compensation

(8) Stock-based Compensation

Under the terms of Suffolk's stock option plans adopted in 1999 and 2009, options have been granted to key employees and directors to purchase shares of Suffolk's stock. Under the Suffolk Bancorp 2009 Stock Incentive Plan ("the Plan"), there are 500,000 shares of Suffolk's common stock reserved for issuance, of which 100,000 had been granted as of March 31, 2012. There are no shares reserved for issuance under the 1999 Stock Option Plan. Options are awarded by a committee appointed by the Board of Directors. Both plans provide that the option price shall not be less than the fair value of the common stock on the date the option is granted. All options are exercisable for a period of ten years or less. Both plans provide for but do not require the grant of stock appreciation rights that the holder may exercise instead of the underlying option. When the stock appreciation right is exercised, the underlying option is canceled. The optionee receives shares of common stock or cash with a fair market value equal to the excess of the fair value of the shares subject to the option at the time of exercise (or the portion thereof so exercised) over the aggregate option price of the shares set forth in the option agreement. The exercise of stock appreciation rights is treated as the exercise of the underlying option. Options granted prior to 2010 vest after one year. Options granted in 2011 are exercisable commencing three years from the date of grant at a rate of one third per year. Options granted in 2012 are exercisable commencing one year from the date of grant at a rate of one third per year.

On December 30, 2011, Suffolk granted an award of 30,000 non-qualified stock options at an exercise price of $10.79 per share. The stock option award was granted to the President and Chief Executive Officer as an inducement material to employment with Suffolk. The non-qualified options were not issued as part of any of Suffolk's registered stock-based compensation plans. The options are exercisable commencing three years from the date of grant at a rate of one third per year. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, $9,000 was recognized as compensation expense. The total remaining unrecognized compensation cost of $169,000 will be expensed over the remaining vesting period of 4.75 years.

Stock-based compensation for all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, is recorded in the financial statements based on their fair values. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, $18,000 was recognized as compensation expense. The remaining unrecognized compensation cost of $687,000 will be expensed over the remaining weighted vesting period of approximately three years.

The following table presents the options granted, exercised, or expired under the 1999 Plan and the 2009 Plan during the three months ended March 31, 2012:

	Shares			Weighted Average Price

Recent Accounting Pronouncements [Abstract]

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

(2) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2011-03, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860), "Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements," which amends the authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 860 "Transfers and Servicing." The amendments in this update remove from the assessment of effective control (1) the criterion requiring the transferor to have the ability to repurchase or redeem the financial assets on substantially the agreed terms, even in the event of default by the transferee, and (2) the collateral maintenance implementation guidance related to that criterion. The amendments in this update are effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011, and should be applied prospectively to transactions or modifications of existing transactions that occur on or after the effective date. Early adoption is not permitted. Adoption of this update did not have a material effect on Suffolk's results of operations or financial condition.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), "Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS," which amends the authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 820 "Fair Value Measurement" to more closely align U.S. GAAP with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). This standard requires the disclosure of: (1) the reason for the measurement for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements; (2) all transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy must be separately reported and described; (3) for all Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements, a description of the valuation technique(s) and the inputs used in those measurements; (4) for Level 3 measurements, the quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in those measurements; (5) a description of the valuation processes used in Level 3 fair value measurements, as well as narrative descriptions about those measurement's sensitivity to changes in unobservable inputs if such changes would significantly alter the fair value measurement; and (6) expanded disclosure of the categorization by level of the fair value hierarchy for the items that are not measured at fair value in the balance sheet, but for where the estimated fair value is required to be disclosed (e.g. portfolio loans and deposits). This new guidance was effective prospectively beginning January 1, 2012 and it did not have a material effect on Suffolk's condensed consolidated financial statements upon implementation. The new disclosures of the fair value levels of Suffolk's assets and liabilities are set forth in Note 3.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Topic 220, "Presentation of Comprehensive Income," in order to improve the comparability, consistency and transparency of financial reporting and to increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income. This standard eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders' equity. This update requires all non-owner changes in stockholders' equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In the two-statement approach, the first statement should present total net income and its components followed consecutively by a second statement that should present total other comprehensive income, the components of other comprehensive income, and the total of comprehensive income. Regardless of which presentation method an entity chooses, the entity is required to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s), where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. This new guidance was effective retrospectively for all annual and interim periods presented beginning January 1, 2012 and Suffolk now presents a separate condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income. In October 2011, the FASB decided to defer the presentation of reclassification adjustments pending further consideration.

In September 2011 the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, "Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment," to give both public and nonpublic entities the option to qualitatively determine whether they can bypass the two-step goodwill impairment test under FASB ASC 350-20, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. Under the new guidance, if an entity chooses to perform a qualitative assessment and determines that it is more likely than not (a more than 50 percent likelihood) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it would then perform Step 1 of the annual goodwill impairment test in ASC 350-20 and, if necessary, proceed to Step 2. Otherwise, no further evaluation would be necessary. The amended guidance is effective for interim and annual goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, although early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed as of a date before September 15, 2011, if an entity's financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued. Suffolk adopted ASU 2011-08 effective in the third quarter of 2011. Adoption of this update did not have an effect on Suffolk's results of operations or financial condition.
