PART I
Forward Looking Statements
          The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that are based on management’s beliefs, assumptions, current expectations, estimates and projections about the financial services industry, the economy, and about the Corporation and Bank. Words such as “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “expects”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “is likely”, “plans”, “projects”, variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward- looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions (“Future Factors”) that are difficult to predict with regard to timing, extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence. Therefore, actual results and outcomes may materially differ from what may be expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. The Corporation undertakes no obligation to update, amend or clarify forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events (whether anticipated or unanticipated), or otherwise.
          Future Factors include changes in interest rates and interest rate relationships; demand for products and services; the degree of competition by traditional and non-traditional competitors; changes in banking regulation; changes in tax laws; changes in prices, levies and assessments; the impact of technological advances; governmental and regulatory policy changes; the outcomes of contingencies; trends in customer behavior as well as their ability to repay loans; and changes in the national and local economy. These are representative of the Future Factors that could cause a difference between an ultimate actual outcome and a preceding forward-looking statement.
Item 1. Business
          Dearborn Bancorp, Inc. (the “Corporation”), a Michigan corporation, is a bank holding corporation owning all the common stock of Fidelity Bank (the “Bank’) , a Michigan banking corporation which commenced business on February 28, 1994. Fidelity Bank was previously known as the Community Bank of Dearborn. The Bank is the only commercial bank headquartered in Dearborn, Michigan and conducts business primarily in Wayne, Macomb, Oakland and Washtenaw Counties, Michigan.
Background
          The liberalization of Michigan’s branch banking laws, together with the expansion of interstate banking, has led to substantial consolidation of the banking industry in Michigan, including within the county in which the Bank has its executive offices. In the past, several of the financial institutions within the primary market area of the Bank have either been acquired by or merged with larger financial institutions or out-of-state financial institutions. In some cases, when these consolidations occurred, local boards of directors were dissolved and local management relocated or in some cases terminated and has, in some cases, resulted in policy and credit decisions being centralized away from local management.
          In the opinion of the Corporation’s management, this situation has created a favorable opportunity for a local commercial bank with local management and directors. Management of the Corporation believes that such a bank attracts those customers who wish to conduct business with a locally managed institution that demonstrates an active interest in their business and personal financial affairs. The Corporation believes that a locally managed institution, in many cases, will be able to deliver more timely responses to customer requests, provide customized financial products and services and offer customers the personal attention of the Bank’s senior banking officers. The Bank seeks to take advantage of this opportunity by emphasizing in its marketing plan the Bank’s local management and the Bank’s ties and commitment to its market area.
          The Corporation was incorporated as a Michigan business corporation on September 30, 1992. The Corporation was formed to acquire all of the Bank’s issued and outstanding stock and to engage in the business of a bank holding corporation under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “Act”).

          The executive offices of the Corporation and the Bank are located at 1360 Porter Street, Dearborn, Michigan 48124, telephone number (313) 565-5700. The Bank’s the website address is www.fidbank.com. The investor relations page of the website can be directly accessed at www.dearbornbancorp.com.
Business of the Corporation
          The primary purpose of the Corporation is the ownership of the Bank. In the future, the Corporation may form or acquire other subsidiaries as permitted under the Act and the regulations of the Federal Reserve.
Business of the Bank
          Principal operations of the Bank commenced on February 28, 1994 when the Bank opened for business at its main office, located at 22290 Michigan Avenue, Dearborn, Michigan. The Bank, through its main office, branch offices and regional lending centers, emphasizes and offers highly personalized service to its customers. A listing of office locations is set forth under the caption “Fidelity Bank Locations” in the 2009 Annual Report to Stockholders and is incorporated herein by reference.
          On January 4, 2007, the Corporation acquired Fidelity Financial Corporation of Michigan (Fidelity), a commercial bank with seven offices in Oakland County, Michigan. The acquisition significantly expands the Bank’s presence in Oakland County, Michigan. Management believes that the acquisition has been beneficial to the Bank’s customers and the Corporation’s shareholders.
          The customer service officers are well-trained, experienced bank officers who fill the needs of the customers and handle the requests of their customers in a professional manner. The management of the Corporation and the Bank believe that it is important to the success of the Bank’s strategy to create long-term relationships between customers and Bank employees. The Bank’s senior management holds regular staff information meetings so that all employees are given information regarding the Bank’s plans and objectives, and employees are offered the opportunity to make suggestions to improve the Bank’s performance. The management of the Bank believes that this approach creates a commitment by all employees to the Bank’s success.
          The Bank offers a wide range of financial products and services. These include checking accounts, savings accounts, money market accounts, certificates of deposit, business checking, direct deposit, loan services (commercial, consumer, real estate mortgages), travelers’ checks, cashiers’ checks, wire transfers, safety deposit boxes, online banking, telephone banking, collection services, and night depository services. The Bank offers check imaging options including statements on CD ROM and online banking services to its customers.. The Bank does not have a trust department.
          On August 19, 1997, the Bank purchased a shell insurance agency and renamed the agency Community Bank Insurance Agency, Inc. Community Bank Insurance Agency’s primary functions are to act as the sales agent for the Corporation’s own insurance policies and to hold a minority interest in MBT Title Services, LLC, a title insurance company, which allows the Bank to offer title insurance to its customers.
          On March 26, 2002, the Bank formed Community Bank Audit Services, Inc., a company that provides internal audit and compliance consulting to other small community banks.

Business Strategy
          Maintain High Quality Operations. Since commencing operations, excellent customer service and strong underwriting of potential borrowers has been emphasized. We will continue to emphasize high asset quality and offer superior customer service. We will focus on improving loan quality by utilizing commercial lenders and loan workout professionals to manage our loan portfolio. We believe that the demographics and growth characteristics within the communities we serve should also provide significant opportunities for us to improve our loan and deposit relationships at our existing offices.
          Emphasize Relationship Banking. We strive to maintain a strong commitment to relationship banking. Our goal is to attract small to medium-sized businesses, as well as individuals as customers who wish to conduct business with a local commercial bank that demonstrates an active interest in their business and personal affairs. We are becoming increasingly sophisticated in our ability to analyze our customer relationships, which increases our ability to recognize the opportunity to offer additional products and services that will expand each relationship. We believe our ability to deliver products and services in a highly personalized manner helps differentiate us from larger, regional banks operating in our market area.
          Maintain Strong Level of Capital. A Bank’s level of capitalization is a primary factor in the level of the regulatory pressures faced by financial institutions. We should maintain sufficient levels of capital to be categorized as “Well-Capitalized”. When capital levels fall below this level due to business conditions, management will take actions necessary to improve capital levels. Maintenance of the level of capital required to be categorized as “well-capitalized” provides management with the flexibility to take advantage of business opportunities, reduces the cost of FDIC deposit insurance and limits regulatory restrictions.
          Hire Experienced, Local Bankers. Our strategy has revolved around the hiring of experienced, local banking professionals and relationship managers to run our offices, call on customers and originate loans and deposits. We encourage our employees to be active in community affairs and business, trade and service organizations. Our senior loan officers have an average of over 20 years of experience in the financial services industry and have operated in our market area through a wide range of economic cycles and lending market conditions. We believe that the recruitment of banking professionals with significant experience in, and knowledge of, our markets facilitates our growth and partially mitigates the credit risk associated with our loan portfolio.
          Capitalize on Consolidation in Our Market. Several of the financial institutions within our market area have either been acquired by, or merged with, larger or out-of-state financial institutions. These acquisitions have included: Royal Bank of Scotland Group, Plc’s acquisition of Charter One Financial, Inc., J.P. Morgan Chase & Co.’s acquisition of Bank One Corporation, Fifth Third Bancorp’s acquisition of Old Kent Financial Corporation and Bank of America’s acquisition of Lasalle Bank. In some cases, when these consolidations occurred, the ensuing employee and customer disruptions created opportunities for us to attract experienced personnel and establish relationships with customers wishing to conduct business with a locally-managed institution with strong ties to the community. We have positioned ourselves to capitalize on business opportunities that may result from customer dislocation associated with these and future consolidations.
          Control Our Operating Costs. Our practice of employing fewer, but highly qualified and productive individuals at all levels of the organization is key to maintaining a decentralized management structure. These individuals are able to manage large loan portfolios, which increases interest income while controlling personnel costs. Additionally, to manage our growth in an efficient manner, we continue to enhance our operating procedures and in 2004 we opened an operations center in Allen Park, Michigan that consolidated many of our administrative and support functions. This facility houses our data processing, accounting, auditing, compliance and customer support activities.
          Focus on Commercial Real Estate Lending. While we offer a full range of consumer and commercial loan products, our primary lending focus will continue to be providing local businesses with loans secured by owner-occupied real estate. Typically, we seek commercial real estate lending relationships with customers borrowing from $500,000 to $4 million. Although our legal lending limit was approximately $23 million as of December 31, 2009, our Board of Directors has set our current in-house lending limit at $6 million. Our in-house limit accommodates the vast majority of lending opportunities we encounter. If local businesses have credit needs beyond the scope of our in-house lending capacity, we may participate out a portion of the credit with other financial institutions in order to accommodate our customers’ needs. As of December 31, 2009, commercial real estate loans comprised 74% of our loan portfolio.

Market Area
          Our current market area includes Wayne, Macomb, Washtenaw and Oakland Counties, which are all located in southeastern Michigan. We currently have offices in the following communities: Ann Arbor, Auburn Hills, Bingham Farms, Birmingham, Bloomfield Township, Canton Township, Clinton Township, Dearborn, Dearborn Heights, Plymouth Township, Saline, Shelby Township, Southfield and Southgate, Michigan. Our market area has a diverse economy based primarily on manufacturing, retail and service businesses and contains the headquarters for twenty-three Fortune 500 companies. According to 2000 U.S. Census Data, the populations of Wayne (excluding the City of Detroit), Macomb, Washtenaw and Oakland Counties totaled 3,414,967, while median household incomes for such counties were $50,848, $58,598, $59,069 and $69,794, respectively.
          Our market area represents a significant banking market in the State of Michigan. According to the FDIC, total deposits in Wayne (excluding the City of Detroit), Macomb, Washtenaw, and Oakland Counties, including those of banks and thrifts, were approximately $79.7 billion as of June 30, 2009, which accounted for approximately 48.7% of the total deposit market share in the State of Michigan and has increased approximately 57.8% from $50.5 billion in deposits as of June 30, 2000.
Marketing Plan
          The Bank’s marketing plan emphasizes direct sales calls by Bank officers and branch managers and specific telemarketing programs involving branch personnel. The marketing plan also focuses on the concepts of corporate citizenship and personal interaction within the communities the Bank serves through promotion of, and active participation in a number of civic organizations and ongoing community activities. Management believes that these efforts establish the identity and philosophy of the Bank within the communities it serves and allows bank officers and employees to personally interact with local business leaders and members of the public.
          The Bank has two primary target markets: consumer financial services, with an emphasis on individual deposit accounts and single family residential lending; and business financial services, with an emphasis on deposit and loan products designed for small- to medium-sized businesses.
          Community Club. At inception, the Bank established a “Community Club” which has become an important marketing tool to increase the Bank’s total deposits. The Community Club is targeted at individuals over the age of 50. As of December 31, 2009, the Community Club had over 6,200 members who accounted for total deposits of $609.7 million, or 70% of the Bank’s total deposits.
          Among other things, membership in the Community Club entitles the customer to increased personal attention and service by Bank staff and a 1/4% premium on new certificate of deposit accounts with a minimum $1,000 balance and one year maturity. The Bank also hosts local community events, educational seminars and travel programs which have been well received by the Community Club members. Management believes that the success of the Community Club and the Bank’s continued efforts to expand the benefits of the program will foster an increase in the number of Community Club members and deposit accounts.

          Business Financial Services. The Bank’s business marketing efforts are directed by senior management, including Michael J. Ross, Warren R. Musson and Jeffrey J. Wolber. Lee Freeland as Vice President of Sales Administration is responsible for administering and coordinating the retail business development efforts of the Bank.
          The Bank has developed a one-on-one marketing approach for existing and prospective customers alike. Utilizing the Bank’s database, existing clients are identified to determine their current banking products, services provided, and for additional cross selling opportunities to enhance the account relationship. With the calling efforts of our branch managers, business development and lending officers, bank personnel conduct on-site client interviews with the responsibility of creating new business opportunities for the Bank.
          Business prospects are identified through listings provided by the various chambers of commerce, manufacturer directories and other sources targeted to the communities the Bank serves. Typically the internal sales calls are introductory in nature with follow-up calls made to determine the feasibility of arranged meeting to discuss the Bank’s products and services. The targeted list of new business customers represent a mix of industrial, manufacturing, professional and retail clients with an emphasis on businesses with annual sales of $10 million or less. The Bank believes this strategy has been, and will continue to be, successful in generating new business for the Bank.
          In addition to its marketing program, the Bank’s officers maintain contact with existing customers, local attorneys, accountants and other representatives in the local community that may be in a position to refer business to the Bank. The Bank also encourages and supports its officers and employees to join and participate in various community organizations and events.
          Through their many years of business and community leadership, each of the Corporation’s Directors has been, and will continue to be, a strong source of referrals for the Bank.
          Consumer Financial Services. The Bank originates residential real estate loans primarily through its retail branch facilities. Branch managers and mortgage loan originators develop new residential mortgage applications from several sources including real estate brokers, insurance agents, accountants, attorneys, existing residential mortgage customers and other customers of the Bank. An extensive telemarketing effort generates potential customers as a result of these contacts. Additionally, the Bank has developed targeted real estate newsletters that are mailed to an existing database composed of those referral sources. The Bank also maintains an active role in several local real estate boards offering product training to members.
          The Bank, as a result of its secondary market operations, is able to offer a variety of loan products that serve the needs of first time home buyers. Customers desiring to construct new homes are able to obtain financing as a result of the Bank’s construction loan program that is offered in addition to the permanent loan. Non-conforming loans, which include larger residential loans, are also provided through the Bank’s secondary marketing efforts. The Bank also provides loans that it holds in its own portfolio on those transactions that evidence satisfactory credit quality and income but are unable to be sold in the secondary market for various reasons. The Bank does not originate sub-prime mortgages for its portfolio.
          Management believes that cross-selling of the Bank’s products and services to its existing customers is vital to expanding account relationships, generating additional sales opportunities and increasing fee income.

Loan Policy
          As a routine part of the Bank’s business, the Bank makes loans to individuals and businesses located within the Bank’s market area. The loan policy of the Bank states that the function of the lending operation is two-fold: to provide a means for the investment of funds at a profitable rate of return with an acceptable degree of risk, and to meet the credit needs of the responsible businesses and individuals who are customers of the Bank. However, the Board of Directors of the Bank recognizes that in the normal business of lending, some losses on loans will be inevitable and should be considered a part of the normal cost of doing business. Under the loan policy, individual lending authority for loans in excess of $100,000 is granted to a limited number of officers, each of whom has over 25 years of banking experience. Currently this group includes Michael J. Ross and Warren R. Musson. They are authorized to lend up to $100,000 unsecured and $1,000,000 for collateralized loans.
          The Bank’s loan policy anticipates that priorities in extending loans will change from time to time as interest rates, market conditions and competitive factors change. The policy sets forth guidelines on a nondiscriminatory basis for lending in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. The policy describes various criteria in granting loans, including the ability to pay; the character of the customer; evidence of financial responsibility; purpose of the loan; knowledge of collateral and its value; terms of repayment; source of repayment; payment history; and economic conditions.
          The loan policy specifies individual lending limits for certain officers up to a maximum of $25,000 for unsecured loans and $100,000 for secured loans. When certain officers have the approval of certain other officers, these limits may be increased to $100,000 for unsecured loans and $500,000 for secured loans. Loans of greater than $500,000 normally require the approval of our Loan Committee unless approved by Michael J. Ross or Warren R. Musson up to their authorized limits and loans greater than $1,000,000 require the approval of our Executive Loan Committee, which requires the attendance of at least three outside members of the Bank’s Board of Directors for a quorum. Loans in excess of $6,000,000 up to the legal maximum authorized by law require the approval of our Board of Directors.
          The loan policy also limits the amount of funds that may be loaned against specified types of collateral including: listed securities with a share price greater than $10 — not greater than 80% loan to value; listed securities with a share price less that or equal to $10 — not greater than 50% loan to value; U.S. Government securities — not greater than 90% loan to value; Municipal securities — not greater that 80% loan to value; and insured bank deposits — not greater than 100% loan to value. As to loans secured principally by real estate, the policy complies with the FIRREA Act of 1989 regarding appraisals of the property offered as collateral by licensed independent appraisers. The loan policy also provides general guidelines as to collateral, provides for environmental reviews, contains specific limitations with respect to loans to employees, executive officers and directors, provides for problem loan identification, establishes a policy for the maintenance of a loan loss reserve, provides for loan reviews and sets forth policies for mortgage lending and other matters relating to the Bank’s lending business.

Lending Practices
          Commercial Loans. Our commercial lending group originates commercial loans primarily in Wayne, Macomb, Oakland and Washtenaw Counties in southeastern Michigan. Commercial loans are originated by a group of lending officers with the assistance of Michael J. Ross and Warren R. Musson. Loans are originated for general business purposes, including working capital, accounts receivable financing, machinery and equipment acquisition, and commercial real estate financing including new construction.
          Working capital loans are often structured as a line of credit and are reviewed periodically in connection with the borrower’s year-end financial reporting. These loans generally are secured by all of the assets of the borrower, a personal guaranty of the owners and have an interest rate plus a margin tied to the Fidelity Bank prime rate. Loans for machinery and equipment purposes typically have a maturity of five to seven years and are fully amortizing. Commercial real estate loans are usually written with a five-year maturity and are amortized over a fifteen to twenty-year period. Commercial real estate loans may have an interest rate that is fixed to maturity or float with a margin over the prime rate or another index. All loans typically contain a pre-payment premium and many floating rate loans contain interest rate floors to protect the Bank’s net interest margin.
          We evaluate all aspects of a commercial loan transaction in order to minimize credit and interest rate risk. Underwriting includes an assessment of management, products, markets, cash flow, capital, income and collateral. The analysis includes a review of historical and projected financial results. Appraisals are normally obtained by licensed independent appraisers who are well known to us on transactions involving real estate and, in some cases, equipment.
          Commercial real estate lending has historically involved more risk than residential lending, because loan balances are greater and repayment is dependent upon the borrower’s operations. We attempt to minimize risk associated with these transactions by limiting our exposure to existing well-known customers and new customers with an established profitable history. Risk is further reduced by limiting the concentration of credit to any one borrower as well as the type of commercial real estate financed.
          The Bank has established a Special Assets Group within the Lending Department. This group consists of a Group Manager and several workout officers. These professionals are responsible for the management of non-performing loans and the disposal of non-performing assets. Additionally, the Bank has formed a Special Assets Committee that meets bi-weekly. This Committee consists of the Head of Lending, Head of Credut and the Special Assets Manager. This Committee discusses the status of these non-performing assets and strategies and actions concerning these assets that would further the Bank’s interests.
          Residential Real Estate Loans. We originate residential real estate loans in our market area according to secondary market underwriting standards. These loans provide borrowers with a fixed interest rate with terms up to thirty years. Loans are sold on a servicing released basis in the secondary market with all interest rate risk and credit risk passed to the purchaser. The Bank from time to time may elect to underwrite certain residential real estate loans to be held in its own loan portfolio. These loans are generally underwritten with the same standards that apply to the secondary market. The majority of the portfolio loans have a fixed rate of interest for the first five years, then the interest rate is indexed to the one-year treasury rate and adjusts annually. Underwriting standards include verifying the income of potential borrowers and confirming their ability to repay. It has not been our practice to make “no document” loans or other sub-prime loans.

          Consumer Loans. We originate consumer loans for a wide variety of personal financial requirements. Consumer loans include home equity lines of credit, and loans secured by new and used automobiles, boats, savings accounts as well as overdraft protection for checking account customers. We also purchase retail installment loans from a select list of automobile dealerships located primarily in our market.
          Consumer loans, except for home equity lines of credit, generally have shorter terms and higher interest rates than residential mortgage loans and usually involve more credit risk than mortgage loans because of the type and nature of the collateral. While we do not utilize a formal credit scoring system, we believe our loans are underwritten carefully, with a strong emphasis on the amount of the down payment, credit quality, employment stability, and monthly income. These loans are generally repaid on a monthly repayment schedule with the source of repayment tied to the borrower’s periodic income. In addition, consumer lending collections are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability, and are thus likely to be adversely affected by job loss, illness and personal bankruptcy. In many cases, repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan will not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance because of depreciation of the underlying collateral. We believe that the generally higher yields earned on consumer loans compensate for the increased credit risk associated with such loans and that consumer loans are important to our efforts to serve the credit needs of the communities and customers that we serve.
          Allowance for Loan Losses. An allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level that we consider adequate to provide for losses in the loan portfolio. Allowances for loan losses are based upon our experience and estimates of the net realizable value of collateral in each loan portfolio. Our Board of Directors and senior management review the allowance quarterly. Our evaluation takes into consideration experience, the level of classified assets, non-performing loans, the current level of the allowance as it relates to the total loan portfolio, current economic conditions, recent regulatory examinations and other factors.
          In determining the allowance for loan losses, we consider three principal elements: (i) specific allocations based on probable losses identified during the review of the loan portfolio, (ii) allocations based principally on the likelihood that the status of performing loans will decline to non-performing status, and (iii) additional allowances based on subjective factors, including local and general economic business factors and trends and portfolio concentrations.
          The first element reflects our estimate of probable losses based upon our systematic review of specific loans. These estimates are based upon a number of objective factors, such as payment history, financial condition of the borrower, and discounted collateral exposure.
          As further discussed below, we have developed a risk rating system that is applied to our commercial loan portfolio. Loans rated 5 or 6 are deemed “Criticized”, while loans rates 7 or higher are deemed “Classified”. Classified loans with a balance of $500,000 or greater that are classified as non-accrual are considered to be impaired, as defined by ASC 310-40 (formerly known as SFAS 114). A collateral analysis is performed on these loans to determine if the collateral is sufficient to secure these loans. If there is a collateral shortfall, the loan is charged down to the level of the collateral value. If applicable, portions of our allowance are assigned to individual loans based on this analysis.
          Loans classified as Troubled Debt Restructuring (“TDR loans”)are also classified as impaired loans. A TDR loan occurs when a borrower is granted a temporary concession to enable the borrower to fulfill the debt service obligations with the Bank. Once the term of the TDR loan has concluded, the loan will return to its previous contractual terms. These loans are analyzed on a cash flow or collateral value basis to determine if an allocation in the allowance for loan losses is necessary. If necessary, portions of our allowance are assigned to individual TDR loans based on this analysis.
          Commercial loans not classified as impaired,homogeneous mortgage and consumer loans are provided for in the allowance for loan losses computation by allocations based upon loan grade and type. These allocations include consideration of a variety of objective and subjective factors including our historical loss experience, delinquent status, the purpose and size of the loan, its collateral type, the current economic environment and other business factors and trends that we believe impact the ability of our borrowers to repay their obligations.

          Delinquent Loans, Non-performing Assets and Classified Assets. When a borrower fails to make a required payment on a loan, our Bank attempts to cause the deficiency to be cured by contacting the borrower. In many cases, deficiencies are cured as a result of these collection efforts.
          When a borrower fails to make a timely payment, the borrower will receive a delinquency notice within 5 days of the due date. When the payment reaches 15 days past due, a second notice will be sent and a phone call will be made. This process is repeated if the account remains delinquent at 25 days. In many cases, delinquencies are paid promptly. Generally, if a real estate loan becomes 90 days delinquent, the borrower and collateral will be assessed to determine whether foreclosure action is required. When deemed appropriate by management, a foreclosure action will be instituted or a deed in lieu of foreclosure will be pursued.
          Loans that are 90 days past due and are not well secured and in the process of collection will be placed on non-accrual status. Under-collateralized loans that are 90 days past due will be fully or partially charged-off. The amount charged-off will be charged against the loan loss allowance.
          Our Bank has developed a risk-rating system to quantify loan quality. The system assigns a risk rating from 1 to 9 for each loan. Loans graded 1 to 4 are rated “Pass”, while loans graded 5 and 6 are rated “Criticized”. Classified loans are those with a risk rating of 7 or higher. Each loan rating is determined by analyzing the borrowers’ management, financial ability, sales trends, operating results, financial conditions, asset protection, contingencies, payment history, financial flexibility, credit enhancements and other relevant factors. Loans that fall into the classified categories are monitored on a regular basis and proper action is taken to minimize our Bank’s exposure. Losses or partial losses will be taken when they are recognized.
          The Bank’s risk rating system is similar to that used by regulatory agencies. Problem assets are classified as “substandard” (risk rating 7), “doubtful” (risk rating 8) or “loss” (risk rating 9). “Substandard” assets have one or more defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the insured institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. “Doubtful” assets have the same weaknesses as “substandard” assets, with the additional characteristics that (i) the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values questionable and (ii) there is a high possibility of loss. An asset classified “loss” is considered uncollectible and of such little value that its continuance as an asset of the institution is not warranted. The regulations also contain “special mention” (risk rating 6) and “watch credit” (risk rating 5) categories, consisting of assets which do not currently expose an institution to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant classification but which possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving management’s close attention.
          Generally, our Bank classifies as “substandard” all loans that are delinquent more than 90 days and non-accruing, unless management believes the delinquency status is short-term due to unusual circumstances. Loans delinquent fewer than 90 days may also be classified if the loans have the characteristics described above rendering classification appropriate.
          The aggregate amounts of our Bank’s criticized and classified assets at December 31, 2009, and December 31, 2008 were as follows (dollars in thousands):
                         
            December 31,     December 31,

Total classified assets
          $ 281,830     $ 173,501  
 
                   
          Criticized and classified assets increased $47.7 million and $60.5 million, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2009. The economic slowdown in our market area has resulted in an increase in the number and dollar amount of classified loans. At December 31, 2009, criticized and classified assets had a specific allocation of the allowance to loan losses of $10.7 million.

The increase in non-accruing loans during the year ended December 31, 2009 is primarily due to downgrading 101 loans with a balance of $34,695,000 to non-accrual status. The primary cause of the increase in non-accruing loans is primarily related to the Bank’s commercial and commercial real estate loans as well as loans financing the development and construction of residential property. During 2009, our local markets were significantly impacted by the unprecedented bankruptcy filings of two major automobile manufacturers during the second quarter of 2009. While the Corporation had no direct exposure to these entities, these bankruptcy filings, subsequent shutdown of production for several months and the resulting employee layoffs has had a devastating impact on the general economic conditions in Southeastern Michigan during 2009. This downturn in economic activity has continued to worsen the condition of the residential real estate market during 2009 as well as to significantly impact the Bank’s commercial and commercial real estate mortgage portfolios. This downturn has also led to a significant decline in collateral values of all types of real property. The adverse impact on our loan portfolio is expected to continue. We continue to work to collect these loans as they are all secured by real estate which we believe will have significant value, even in liquidation.
The distribution of loans downgraded to non-accrual status during 2009 (dollars, in thousands) is as follows:

Investments
          Our principal investments are our investment in the common stock of our Bank and the common securities of the trust. Our funds may be invested from time to time in various debt instruments, including obligations of or guaranteed by the United States, general obligations of a state or political subdivision or an agency of a state or political subdivision, banker’s acceptances or certificates of deposit of United States commercial banks, or commercial paper of United States issuers rated in the highest category by a nationally-recognized investment rating service. We are permitted to make unlimited portfolio investments in equity securities and to make equity investments in subsidiary corporations engaged in certain non-banking activities, including real estate-related activities such as mortgage banking, community development, real estate appraisals, arranging equity financing for commercial real estate, and owning and operating real estate used substantially by our Bank or acquired for its future use. However, we have no present plans to make any of these equity investments.
          Our Bank may invest its funds in a wide variety of debt instruments and may participate in the federal funds market with other depository institutions. Subject to certain exceptions, our Bank is prohibited from investing in equity securities. Under one exception, in certain circumstances and with the prior approval of the FDIC, our Bank could invest up to 10% of its total assets in the equity securities of a subsidiary corporation engaged in the acquisition and development of real property for sale, or the improvement of real property by construction or rehabilitation of residential or commercial units for sale or lease. Our Bank has no present plans to make such an investment. Real estate acquired by our Bank in satisfaction of or foreclosure upon loans may be held by our Bank. Our Bank is also permitted to invest in such real estate as is necessary for the convenient transaction of its business. Our Bank’s Board of Directors may alter the investment policy without stockholder approval at any time.
Employees
          As of December 31, 2009, the Bank had 204 employees, including 70 officers and 134 customer service, operations and other support persons. Management believes that the Bank’s relations with its employees are excellent.
Competition
          The Bank faces strong competition for deposits, loans and other financial services from numerous banks, savings banks, thrifts, credit unions and other financial institutions as well as other entities which provide financial services, including consumer finance companies, securities brokerage firms, mortgage brokers, insurance companies, mutual funds, and other lending sources and investment alternatives. Some of the financial institutions and financial services organizations with which the Bank competes are not subject to the same degree of regulation as the Bank. Many of the financial institutions and financial services organizations aggressively compete for business in the Bank’s market area. Most of these competitors have been in business for many years, have established customer bases, are larger, have substantially higher lending limits than the Bank, and are able to offer certain services that the Bank does not currently provide, including more extensive branch networks, trust services, and international banking services. In addition, most of these entities have greater capital resources than the Bank, which, among other things, may allow them to price their services at levels more favorable to the customer and to provide larger credit facilities than could the Bank. Additionally, legislation regarding interstate branching and banking may increase competition in the future from out-of-state banks.

Supervision and Regulation
          The Corporation is a registered bank holding company and subject to the supervision of the Federal Reserve System (“Federal Reserve”). The Corporation is required to file with the Federal Reserve annual reports and such other information as the Federal Reserve may require under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “Act”). The Corporation and the Bank are each subject to examination by the Federal Reserve.
          The Act requires every bank holding company to obtain prior approval of the Federal Reserve before it may merge with or consolidate into another bank holding company, acquire substantially all assets of any bank, or acquire ownership or control of any voting shares of any bank, if after such acquisition, it would own or control, directly or indirectly, more than 5% of the voting shares of such bank holding company or bank. The Federal Reserve may in its discretion approve the acquisition by the Corporation of the voting shares or substantially all assets of a bank located in Michigan and, subject to certain restrictions, located in any other state.
          The Act also prohibits a bank holding company, with certain exceptions, from acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any company that is not a bank, and from engaging in any business other than that of banking, managing and controlling banks and their subsidiaries. Holding companies may engage in, and may own shares of companies engaged in, certain businesses found by the Federal Reserve to be closely related to banking or the management or control of banks. Under current regulations of the Federal Reserve, a holding company and its non-bank subsidiaries are permitted to engage in investment management, sales and consumer finance, equipment leasing, data processing, discount securities brokerage, mortgage banking and brokerage, and other activities. These activities are subject to certain limitation imposed by the regulations.
          Transactions between the Corporation and the Bank are subject to various restrictions imposed by state and federal law. Such transactions include loans and other extensions of credit, purchases of securities, any payments of fees and other distributions. Federal law places restrictions on the amount and nature of loans to executive officers, directors and controlling persons of banks insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and holding companies controlling such banks.
          The Bank is a state chartered bank and subject to regulation and examination by the Michigan Office of Financial and Insurance Services. The Bank also is subject to certain provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and regulations issued under that act. The regulations affect many activities of the Bank, including the permissible types and amounts of loans, investments, capital adequacy, branching, interest rates payable on deposits, required reserves, and the safety and soundness of the Bank’s practices. The Bank is not a member bank of the Federal Reserve System and is regulated and examined by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
          A summary of consolidated net interest income, consolidated net interest income volume / rate analysis, rate sensitivity analysis / gap analysis and capital ratios is set forth under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the 2009 Annual Report to Stockholders and is incorporated herein by reference.
Consent Order
          Due to our financial condition, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and the Office of Financial and Insurance Regulation for the State of Michigan (“OFIR”) required that our board of directors sign a formal enforcement action (“Consent Order”) with the FDIC and OFIR which conveys specific actions needed to address certain findings from their examination and to address our current financial condition. While management disagreed with a number of conclusions of the exam and was disappointed with the management of the exam, the Bank’s Management Team and Board of Directors agreed to the stipulations of the Consent Order. On February 12, 2010, the Bank received this an executed copy of this Consent Order, which became effective February 22, 2010. The stipulations of this Consent Order include the following:
    Completion of a senior management study by an independent consultant
 
    Plans for the reduction of delinquencies and classified assets
 
    Plans for lending and collection policies
 
    Plans for the reduction of loan concentrations
 
    The revision and implementation of a comprehensive strategic plan
 
    The revision of its Liquidity Plan and the submission of weekly liquidity reports to the FDIC and OFIR

Table of Contents

          The Consent Order also includes a capital directive, which requires us to achieve and maintain tier 1 capital as a percentage of total assets of 9% or higher and total capital as a percentage of risk-weighted assets of 12% or higher within 120 days from the effective date of the order. These ratios are in excess of the statutory minimums to be well-capitalized. The Bank submitted a Capital Restoration Plan (“CRP”) to the FDIC and OFIR on December 15, 2009, due to our undercapitalized status based on our September 30, 2009 regulatory report of condition and income. The CRP addresses, among other things, the steps management will take to cause our capital levels to return to the minimum level to be adequately capitalized.
          Our bank is currently undercapitalized. Failure to meet the minimum ratios set forth in the Consent Order could result in regulators taking additional enforcement action against us.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
          The following risk factors could affect our business, financial conditions or results of operations. These risk factors should be considered in connection with evaluating the forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report because they could cause the actual results and conditions to differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements. The risks that are highlighted are not the only ones we face. If the adverse matters referred to in any of the risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or operations could be adversely affected.
The Corporation may not be able to meet federal regulatory requirements regarding the restoration of capital of the Bank.
          As of December 31, 2009, the Bank is “undercapitalized” by regulatory capital standards. As a result, the Bank has submitted a detailed, written Capital Restoration Plan, specifying the steps the Bank and the Corporation will take to bring the Bank’s capital ratios back into compliance with minimum applicable capital ratios. The plan must also include a statutorily-required guarantee of the Bank’s performance of the plan by its sole shareholder, the Corporation, which guarantee may require assurances, such as a pledge of the Corporation’s assets. The Capital Restoration Plan has been be submitted to the Bank’s federal bank regulator, the FDIC, for approval.
          The Bank’s ability to comply with the requirements of the Capital Restoration Plan that was submitted, are uncertain. Although the Corporation is actively considering alternatives for raising capital, no adequate and satisfactory source of additional capital has been found. The Corporation’s ability to raise additional capital is significantly restricted by several factors, and there is a meaningful possibility the Corporation will not be successful in raising additional capital and meeting the regulatory requirements.
          We are currently under a Consent Order which includes a capital directive that requires the Bank to have and maintain its level of tier 1 capital as a percentage of total assets (capital ratio) at a minimum of 9% and its level of qualifying total capital as a percentage of risk-weighted assets (total risk-based capital ratio) at a minimum of 12% . These ratios are in excess of the statutory minimums to be well-capitalized. At December 31, 2009, the Bank’s capital ratio was 5.10% and the Bank’s total risk-based capital ratio was 7.19%. Additionally, the Bank is prohibited from declaring or paying any cash dividends without prior consent of the FDIC.
The Bank’s capital may not be sufficient to support the risk inherent in its loan portfolio.
          The Bank maintains capital as a means of absorbing losses resulting from the Bank’s operations. The recent losses incurred by the Bank have significantly depleted the Bank’s capital, resulting in the Bank being considered “undercapitalized” pursuant to regulatory capital standards. Among other things, a continuing decline in the collectability of the Bank’s loans, a continuing decline in the value of the collateral supporting those loans, or both, would require the Bank to increase its allowance for loan and lease losses, which would further deplete existing capital. Because of the difficult economic conditions in the areas where the Bank operates, it is reasonable to assume the Bank will continue to incur operating losses. The Bank’s current capital may be insufficient to absorb future operating losses and, unless the Bank is successful in raising additional capital or taking other steps meaningfully to reduce the risk in its loan portfolio, this lack of capital is likely to have a material adverse effect on the Corporation’s business, results of operations, and financial condition and, in extreme circumstances, could result in the closure or liquidation of the Bank.
The Bank will be subject to higher deposit insurance premiums as a result of its capital position.
          As a member of the FDIC, the Bank pays assessments to the FDIC quarterly for insurance of the deposits of its customers to the extent and in the manner set forth in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended, and regulations of the FDIC. The amount of the deposit insurance assessment is determined by multiplying an assessment rate, established for each institution by the FDIC on a risk-adjusted basis, times the institution’s assessment base, as determined from its quarterly report of condition. The risk-adjustment to the assessment rate involves the assignment by the FDIC of each insured institution to one of four risk categories, which reflect the institution’s capital position and supervisory evaluations. An initial assessment rate is determined on the basis of the assigned risk category, and then adjusted further (either up or down) for other characteristics of the institution, including outstanding unsecured and secured debt, and for some institutions, reliance on brokered deposits. The resulting total assessment rates currently may range from 7-24 basis points for well-capitalized banks having the best supervisory evaluations, to 40-77.5 basis points for banks presenting the greatest risk to the Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”) of the FDIC. The assessment rate range possible for an undercapitalized institution such as the Bank currently is 40-77.5 basis points. The FDIC has uniformly increased the annual assessment rates for all insured institutions by 3 basis points, effective January 1, 2011.

Further deterioration of the real estate market and the economy would further materially adversely affect the Corporation’s business, liquidity and financial results.
          The Bank’s loan portfolio is concentrated in loans secured by commercial real estate. As a result, the significant downturn in the real estate market has had a substantial negative effect on the Bank’s business and has contributed to increased levels of delinquent and non-accruing assets, charge-offs and loss reserves. These events, if they continue or worsen, will have a further material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operation of the Bank and the Corporation.
A segment of the Bank’s loans are construction loans which involve the additional risk that a project may not be completed, increasing the risk of loss.
          Approximately 10% of our real estate loan portfolio as of December 31, 2009 was comprised of construction and land development loans. Repayment of such loans is dependent upon the successful completion of the construction project, on time and within budget, and the successful sale of the completed project. If a borrower is unable to complete a construction project or if the marketability of the completed development is impaired, proceeds from the sale of the subject property may be insufficient to repay the loan. Further deterioration in any of the real estate markets the Bank serves is likely to further damage the marketability of these projects; as a result, the Bank may incur further loan losses which will adversely affect its results of operations.
The Bank may not pay any capital distribution or management fees to the Corporation.
          Without the prior approval of the FDIC, the Bank is prohibited from paying any dividend, or making any other capital distribution to, the Corporation. The Bank is also forbidden to pay any management fee to the Corporation. These restrictions may materially adversely affect the cash flow of the Corporation.
Because the Bank is less than well-capitalized, its ability to accept certain types of deposits is limited, which may adversely affect its business, liquidity and financial results.
          The Bank is prohibited from accepting funds obtained, directly or indirectly, by or through any deposit broker. The Bank currently has substantial amounts of such deposits. There can be no assurance that the Bank will be able to replace such brokered deposits from other sources. Further, the Bank may not accept employee benefit plan deposits. These restrictions may adversely affect the Bank’s ability to continue to fund its assets at current levels.
The Bank’s ability to grow, to offer new products, or to engage in new lines of business, is subject to regulatory restrictions.
          Unless consistent with an approved capital restoration plan and accompanied by a proportionate improvement in its capital ratios, the Bank may not permit any increase, from quarter to quarter, in its average total assets. Further, unless the FDIC finds the proposed action is consistent with the capital restoration plan, the Bank may not, directly or indirectly, acquire any company, depository institution or additional branch office, or engage in any new line of business.
Adverse economic conditions in the automobile manufacturing and related service industries may impact our banking business.
          The automobile manufacturing industry has experienced significant economic difficulties over the past five years, which, in turn, has adversely impacted a number of related industries that serve the automobile manufacturing industry, including automobile parts suppliers. These difficulties have intensified during the past year. A number of other companies serving the automobile industry and located in our banking market are facing ongoing economic pressures. We cannot assure you that the economic conditions in the automobile manufacturing and related service industries will improve at any time in the foreseeable future or that adverse economic conditions in these industries will not impact our Bank.

Adverse changes in economic conditions or interest rates may negatively affect our earnings, capital and liquidity.
          The results of operations for financial institutions, including our bank, may be materially and adversely affected by changes in prevailing local and national economic conditions, including declines in real estate market values and the related declines in value of our real estate collateral, rapid increases or decreases in interest rates and changes in the monetary and fiscal policies of the federal government. Our profitability is heavily influenced by the spread between the interest rates we earn on investments and loans and the interest rates we pay on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities. Substantially all our loans are to businesses and individuals in southeastern Michigan, and any decline in the economy of this area could adversely affect our customers’ ability to repay such loans and our ability to make new loans to credit worthy borrowers. Like most banking institutions, our net interest spread and margin will be affected by general economic conditions and other factors that influence market interest rates and our ability to respond to changes in these rates. At any given time, our assets and liabilities will be such that they will be affected differently by a given change in interest rates.
Difficult market conditions will continue to adversely affect the financial services industry.
          Dramatic declines in the housing market over the past two years, with falling home prices and increasing foreclosures, unemployment and under-employment, have negatively impacted the credit performance of real estate related loans and resulted in significant write-downs of asset values by financial institutions. These write-downs, initially of asset-backed securities but spreading to other securities and loans, have caused many financial institutions to seek additional capital, to merge with larger and stronger institutions and, in some cases to fail. Reflecting concern about the stability of the financial markets generally and the strength of counterparties, many lenders and institutional investors have reduced or ceased providing funding to borrowers, including to other financial institutions. This market turmoil and tightening of credit have led to an increased level of commercial and consumer delinquencies, declines in asset values, lack of consumer confidence, increased market volatility and widespread reduction of business activity generally. The resulting economic pressure on consumers and lack of confidence in the financial markets has adversely affected our business, financial condition and results of operations. Market developments may affect levels of consumer confidence and may cause changes in payment patterns, causing increases in delinquencies and default rates, which may impact out charge-offs and provision for loan loss. A worsening of these conditions would likely exacerbate the adverse effects of these difficult market conditions for us and others in the financial institutions industry.
Our credit losses could increase and our allowance for loan losses may not be adequate to cover actual loan losses resulting in a decrease in our net income and earnings per share and a possible decline in our stock price.
          The risk of non-payment of loans is inherent in all lending activities, and non-payment, if it occurs, may have a materially adverse effect on our earnings and overall financial condition as well as the value of our common stock. Our focus on commercial lending may result in an increased concentration of loans to small businesses. As a result, we may assume greater lending risks than other banks. We make various assumptions and judgments about the collectibility of our loan portfolio and provide an allowance for losses based on several factors. If our assumptions are wrong, our allowance for loan losses may not be sufficient to cover our losses, which would have an adverse effect on our operating results. Due to the significant increase in loans originated since we began operations we cannot assure you that we will not experience an increase in delinquencies and losses as these loans continue to mature. The actual amount of future provisions for loan losses cannot be determined at this time and may exceed the amount of past provisions. Additions to our allowance for loan losses decrease our net income and earnings per share and may have an adverse effect on our stock price.

Our commercial real estate loans involve higher principal amounts than other loans, and repayment of these loans may be dependent on factors outside our control or the control of our borrowers.
          Commercial real estate lending typically involves higher loan principal amounts, and the repayment of these loans generally is dependent, in large part, on sufficient income from the properties securing the loans to cover operating expenses and debt service. Because payments on loans secured by commercial real estate often depend upon the successful operating and management of the properties, repayment of these loans may be affected by factors outside the borrower’s control, including adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy. If the cash flow from the property is reduced, the borrower’s ability to repay the loan and the value of the security for the loan may be impaired. At December 31, 2009, commercial real estate loans totaled $615 million, or 74% of our total loan portfolio. Because our loan portfolio contains a number of commercial real estate loans with relatively large balances, the deterioration of one or a few of these loans could cause a significant increase in our percentage of non-performing loans. An increase in non-performing loans could result in a loss of earnings from these loans, an increase in the provision for loan losses and an increase in charge-offs, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
We rely heavily on our management and other key personnel, and the loss of any of them may adversely affect our operations.
          We are and will continue to be dependent upon the services of our management team, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and our other senior managers. Losing one or more key members of the management team could adversely affect our operations.
          In addition, we will continue to depend on our key commercial loan officers. We have several commercial loan officers who are responsible, or share responsibility, for generating and managing a significant portion of our commercial loan portfolio. Our success can be attributed in large part to the relationships these officers as well as members of our management team have developed and are able to maintain with our customers as we continue to implement our community banking philosophy. The loss of any of these commercial loan officers could adversely affect our loan portfolio and performance, and our ability to generate new loans.
          Some of the other financial institutions in our market require their key employees to sign agreements that preclude or limit their ability to leave their employment and compete with them or solicit their customers. These agreements make it more difficult for us to hire loan officers with experience in our market who can immediately solicit their former or new customers on our behalf.
There can be no assurance that recently enacted legislation will stabilize the U. S. financial system.
          President Bush signed into law the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (the “EESA’) on October 3, 2008. Among other things, the EESA established the Troubled Asset Relief Program (the “TARP”). Under the TARP, the U. S. Treasury was given the authority to purchase up to $700 billion of mortgages, mortgage-backed securities and certain other financial instruments from financial institutions and others and take other measures for the purpose of stabilizing and providing liquidity to the U. S. financial markets. Additionally, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation announced the development of a guarantee program under the systemic risk exception to the Federal Deposit Insurance Act pursuant to which the FDIC would, among other things, offer a guarantee of certain financial institution indebtedness in exchange for an insurance premium to be paid to the FDIC by issuing financial institutions (the “FDIC Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program”). On February 17, 2009, President Obama signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (the “ARRA”) into law. The ARRA is a package of measures designed to provide economic stimulus. There can be no assurance, as to the actual impact of the EESA, the ARRA , their respective implementing regulations, the programs of the FDIC or any other governmental agency, or any other legislation, will have on the financial markets. The failure to stabilize the financial markets, and a continuation or worsening of current financial market conditions, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, access to credit or the trading price of our common stock.

Our future success is dependent on our ability to compete effectively in the highly competitive banking industry.
          We face substantial competition in all phases of our operations from a variety of different competitors. Our future growth and success will depend on our ability to compete effectively in this highly competitive environment. We compete for deposits, loans and other financial services with numerous Michigan-based and out-of-state banks, thrifts, credit unions and other financial institutions as well as other entities that provide financial services. Some of the financial institutions and financial service organizations with which we compete are not subject to the same degree of regulation as we are. Most of our competitors have been in business for many years, have established customer bases, are larger, have substantially higher lending limits than we do and offer other services which we do not, including trust services, brokerage, mutual funds and international banking services. The primary competitors in our market area are JPMorganChase, Charter One Bank, N.A., Comerica Incorporated, Fifth Third Bancorp, National City Corporation and Bank of America. Under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999, effective March 11, 2000, securities firms and insurance companies that elect to become financial holding companies may acquire banks and other financial institutions. The financial services industry is also likely to become more competitive as further technological advances enable more companies to provide financial services. These technological advances may diminish the importance of depository institutions and other financial intermediaries in the transfer of funds between parties.
Growth and stockholder returns may be adversely affected if sources of capital are not available to help us meet them.
          Since inception, we have sought to maximize stockholder returns by leveraging our capital. While we believe that earnings from our operations will enable us to continue to grow, if earnings do not meet our current estimates, if we incur unanticipated losses or expenses, or if we grow faster than expected, we may need to obtain additional capital through borrowing, additional issuances of debt or equity securities, or otherwise. If we do not have continued access to sufficient capital, we may be required to reduce our level of assets or reduce our rate of growth in order to maintain regulatory compliance. Under those circumstances our net income and the rate of growth of our net income may be adversely affected.
We are subject to significant government regulation, and any regulatory changes may adversely affect us.
          The banking industry is heavily regulated under both federal and state law. These regulations are primarily intended to protect customers, not our creditors or stockholders. As a bank holding company, we are also subject to extensive regulation by the Federal Reserve Board, in addition to other regulatory and self- regulatory organizations. Our ability to establish new facilities or make acquisitions is conditioned upon the receipt of the required regulatory approvals from these organizations. Regulations affecting banks and financial services companies undergo continuous change, and we cannot predict the ultimate effect of these changes, which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability or financial condition.
We continually encounter technological change, and we may have fewer resources than our competitors to continue to invest in technological improvements.
          The banking industry is undergoing technological changes with frequent introductions of new technology-driven products and services. In addition to better serving customers, the effective use of technology increases efficiency and enables financial institutions to reduce costs. Our future success will depend, in part, on our ability to address the needs of our customers by using technology to provide products and services that will satisfy customer demands for convenience as well as creating additional efficiencies in our operations. Many of our competitors have substantially greater resources to invest in technological improvements. There can be no assurance that we will be able to effectively acquire and implement new technology-driven products and services or be successful in marketing these products and services to our customers.

Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws and the laws of Michigan contain provisions that may discourage or prevent a takeover of the Corporation and reduce any takeover premium.
          Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, and the corporate laws of the State of Michigan, include provisions which are designed to provide our board of directors with time to consider whether a hostile takeover offer is in our and our stockholders’ best interest. These provisions, however, could discourage potential acquisition proposals and could delay or prevent a change in control. The provisions also could diminish the opportunities for a holder of our common stock to participate in tender offers, including tender offers at a price above the then-current market price for our common stock. These provisions could also prevent transactions in which our stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over then-current market prices, and may limit the ability of our stockholders to approve transactions that they may deem to be in their best interests.
          The Michigan Business Corporation Act contains provisions intended to protect stockholders and prohibit or discourage various types of hostile takeover activities. In addition to these provisions and the provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, federal law requires the Federal Reserve Board’s approval prior to acquiring “control” of a bank holding company. All of these provisions may delay or prevent a change in control without action by our stockholders, and could adversely affect the price of our common stock.
There is a limited trading market for our common stock.
          The price of our common stock has been, and will continue to be, subject to fluctuations based on, among other things, economic and market conditions for bank holding companies and the stock market in general, as well as changes in investor perceptions of the Corporation. This issuance of new shares of our common stock also may adversely affect the market for our common stock.
          Our common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “DEAR”. The development and maintenance of an active public trading market depends upon the existence of willing buyers and sellers, the presence of which is beyond our control. While we are a publicly-traded company, the volume of trading activity in our stock is still relatively limited.

To Our Stockholders,
          The downturn in economic activity began to affect Fidelity Bank and Southeastern Michigan in 2007 and has only continued to worsen since then. Among other problems, including the once-unthinkable bankruptcies of General Motors and Chrysler, this decline has seriously depressed both residential and commercial real estate values in the area where we do business. Unlike many other metropolitan areas, we did not have a “real estate bubble” to burst here but values collapsed all the same. As a result, many of our real estate related loans have become problems as sales volumes and collateral values of properties have dramatically declined. Obviously, this situation has had an enormous impact upon our organization.
          As a consequence of these developments, we recorded a net loss of ($61,175,000) or ($8.00) per fully diluted share during 2009, compared to a net loss of ($31,925,000) or ($3.99) per share during 2008. The factors that contributed most to this loss during 2009 were various costs related to Fidelity Bank’s problem loans, particularly the provision for loan losses, write downs and losses on the sale of other real estate, and defaulted loan expenses. Other factors of importance were the recording of a valuation allowance on our deferred tax asset, the impairment of intangible assets, and a significant increase in FDIC assessment expense.
          The most significant factor in the decline in earnings during 2009 was the cost associated with Fidelity Bank’s non-performing assets. We recorded a provision for loan losses of $50,863,000 during 2009 compared to $14,606,000 during 2008. The amount provided for loan losses is based upon an analysis of activity in the allowance for loan losses. The large increase in the provision during 2009 was the result of a higher level of non-performing loans and net charge-offs. Net charge-offs amount to $30,190,000 in 2009 while they had been $10,771,000 during 2008. We also recorded write-downs and losses on the sale of other real estate of $2,905,000 during 2009 compared to $3,037,000 of such write-downs and losses in 2008. Defaulted loan expenses, primarily legal fees, taxes, insurance and maintenance of real estate to which we have taken title amounted to $4,624,000 in 2009 while they had been $2,078,000 during 2008.
          During 2009, our local markets were significantly impacted by the unprecedented bankruptcy filings of two major automobile manufacturers during the second quarter of 2009. While the Corporation had no direct exposure to these entities, these bankruptcy filings, subsequent shutdown of production for several months and the resulting employee layoffs has had a devastating impact on the general economic conditions in Southeastern Michigan during 2009. This downturn in economic activity has continued to worsen the condition of the residential real estate market during 2009 as well as to significantly impact the Bank’s commercial and commercial real estate mortgage portfolios. This downturn has also led to a significant decline in collateral values of all types of real property.
          The second most significant component of the 2009 loss was the recording of a $25,851,000 valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset that we had carried on our financial statements. The practical effect of this non-cash charge was to completely eliminate the deferred tax asset. The valuation allowance has the potential to keep us from paying income taxes on approximately $75 million in future earnings. On a good note, we were able to recognize an income tax refund of $5,452,000 in the Fourth Quarter when new legislation extended our Net Operating Loss carry back period for federal income taxes from two to five years for 2008 and 2009 losses.
          We also recognized another non-cash charge of $3,997,000 for the impairment of other intangible assets that were created from prior bank acquisitions. This final impairment completely removes these intangible assets from our financial statements. The goodwill created from the prior acquisitions was completely written-off in 2008.
          We also recorded a major increase in FDIC assessment expense during 2009. FDIC expenses amounted to $2,843,000 last year while they had been just $696,000 in the previous year. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the assessment rates charged during the year along with a special assessment on all banks. Stress on the FDIC’s reserves due to resolution of bank failures is unlikely to ease any time soon.

          Total assets at December 31, 2009, decreased to $986,486,000 while they had been $1,121,918,000 one year earlier in an effort to preserve capital levels. As a result of the net loss recorded in 2009, stockholders’ equity declined to $41,945,000 at year end. Consequently, Fidelity Bank’s capitalization status went from well capitalized to under capitalized and resulted in the negotiation of a Consent Order with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Office of Financial and Insurance Regulation for the State of Michigan.
          In view of the economic environment and our organization’s condition, we are moving forward very cautiously. It is clear that we must improve Fidelity Bank’s Tier One capital and restore its capitalization status to well-capitalized as soon as possible. The two primary means of doing this are to issue new common stock or to shrink the bank’s asset size.
          In the meantime, we are striving to deal with our non-performing assets and sell our portfolio of other real estate. For now, we have curtailed new lending in order to concentrate our efforts on these two critical tasks. In addition, we are carefully controlling expenses and overhead. As we continue to develop and implement specific plans to deal with the challenges we face, we can make no promises other than our focused efforts to make things better. The Annual Meeting of Stockholders will be held on May 18, 2010, at the Park Place, 23400 Park Avenue, Dearborn, Michigan, at 3:00 p.m. We hope that you will attend.
Sincerely,
John E. Demmer

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Audit Committee, Board of Directors and Stockholders
Dearborn Bancorp, Inc.
Dearborn, Michigan
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Dearborn Bancorp, Inc. (Corporation) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2009. The Corporation’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. Our audit included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Dearborn Bancorp, Inc. as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Corporation will continue as a going concern. As further discussed in Note B, the Corporation has suffered recurring losses resulting from the effects of the economic downturn in their operating region causing its subsidiary bank to be undercapitalized and resulting in a consent order to be issued by its primary regulator. These facts raise substantial doubt about the Corporation’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note B. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an effective system of internal control over financial reporting presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal control. Accordingly, even an effective system of internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation.
Management assessed the Corporation’s systems of internal control over financial reporting presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles as of December 31, 2009. This assessment was based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management believes that, as of December 31, 2009, Dearborn Bancorp, Inc. maintained effective control over financial reporting presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles based on those criteria.
The Corporation’s registered public accounting firm has issued an attestation report on our internal control over financial reporting.

DEARBORN BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2009 and 2008
NOTE A — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements follows.
Nature of Operations and Principals of Consolidation
Dearborn Bancorp, Inc. (the “Corporation”) was incorporated in Michigan on September 30, 1992. The Corporation’s primary subsidiary, Community Bank of Dearborn (the “Bank”), began operations on February 28, 1994. As discussed in Note B, the Corporation acquired Fidelity Financial Corporation of Michigan on January 4, 2007 and merged its operations into the Bank. On April 30, 2007, the Community Bank of Dearborn was renamed Fidelity Bank. The Bank operates seventeen banking offices in Dearborn (2), Dearborn Heights, Plymouth Township, Canton Township, Clinton Township (2), Southgate, Auburn Hills, Saline, Ann Arbor, Birmingham, Bloomfield Township, Bingham Farms, Southfield (2) and Shelby Township in Michigan, offering a full range of banking services to individuals and businesses. The Bank also operates Community Bank Insurance Agency, Inc., an insurance agency with limited activities and Community Bank Audit Services, Inc., a company that offers internal auditing services to financial institutions.
The Bank’s primary deposit products are checking, savings, and term certificate accounts, and its primary lending products are commercial, residential mortgage, and consumer loans. Substantially all loans are secured by specific items of collateral including business assets, consumer assets and real estate. Commercial loans are expected to be repaid from cash flow from operations of businesses. Real estate loans are secured by both residential and commercial real estate. Other financial instruments which potentially represent concentrations of credit risk include deposit accounts in other financial institutions.
While the Corporation’s management monitors the revenue streams of the various products and services, operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Corporation-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the Corporation’s banking operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Dearborn Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Fidelity Bank and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Community Bank Insurance Agency, Inc. and Community Bank Audit Services, Inc. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
In the preparation of financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates that are more susceptible to change in the near term include the allowance for loan losses, fair value of real estate owned, fair value of certain financial instruments, and the carrying value of intangible assets.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — CONTINUED
December 31, 2009 and 2008
NOTE A — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Corporation considers all liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2009 and 2008, cash equivalents consisted primarily of interest-bearing deposits with banks and federal funds sold.
One or more of the financial institutions holding the Corporations’s cash accounts are participating in the FDIC’s Transaction Account Guarantee Program. Under the program, through June 30, 2010, all noninterest-bearing transaction accounts at these institutions are fully guaranteed by the FDIC for the entire amount in the account.
For financial institutions opting out of the FDIC’s Transaction Account Guarantee Program or interest-bearing cash accounts, the FDIC’s insurance limits increased to $250,000, effective October 3, 2008. The increase in federally insured limits is currently set to expire December 31, 2013. At December 31, 2009, the Corporation’s cash accounts exceeded federally insured limits by approximately $68,388,000 of which approximately $68,138,000 was held with the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis.
Restrictions on Cash
The Corporation was required to have $91,000 and $1,917,000 of cash on hand or on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank to meet regulatory reserve and clearing requirements at year end 2009 and 2008, respectively. These balances do not earn interest. Additionally, the Corporation pledged securities with a collateral value of $15,337,000 to the Federal Reserve Bank.
Securities
Effective April 1, 2009, the Corporation adopted new accounting guidance related to recognition and presentation of other-than-temporary impairment (ASC 320-10). When the Corporation does not intend to sell a debt security, and it is more likely than not, the Corporation will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis, it recognizes the credit component of an other-than-temporary impairment of a debt security in earnings and the remaining portion in other comprehensive income. For held-to-maturity debt securities, the amount of an other-than-temporary impairment recorded in other comprehensive income for the noncredit portion of a previous other-than-temporary impairment is amortized prospectively over the remaining life of the security on the basis of the timing of future estimated cash flows of the security.
As a result of this guidance, the Corporation’s consolidated statement of operations as of December 31, 2009, reflects the full impairment (that is, the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and fair value) on debt securities that the Corporation intends to sell or would more likely than not be required to sell before the expected recovery of the amortized cost basis. For available-for-sale and held-to-maturity debt securities that management has no intent to sell and believes that it more likely than not will not be required to sell prior to recovery, only the credit loss component of the impairment is recognized in earnings, while the noncredit loss is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The credit loss component recognized in earnings is identified as the amount of principal cash flows not expected to be received over the remaining term of the security as projected based on cash flow projections.

DEARBORN BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — CONTINUED
December 31, 2009 and 2008
NOTE A — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Prior to the adoption of the recent accounting guidance on April 1, 2009, management considered, in determining whether other-than-temporary impairment exists, (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer and (3) the intent and ability of the Corporation to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
Loans
Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at the principal balance outstanding, net of deferred loan fees and costs and an allowance for loan losses.
Interest income is reported on the interest method and includes amortization of net deferred loan fees and costs over the loan term. Interest income on mortgage and commercial loans is generally discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the credit is well-secured and in process of collection. Consumer loans are typically charged off no later than 180 days past due. In all cases, loans are placed on non-accrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.
All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on non-accrual is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.
Loans Held for Sale
Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or fair value in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized through a valuation allowance by charges to noninterest income. Gains and losses on loan sales are recorded in noninterest income, and direct loan origination costs and fees are deferred at origination of the loan and are recognized in noninterest income upon sale of the loan.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses, increased by the provision for loan losses and decreased by charge-offs less recoveries. 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. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of the loan balance is confirmed or when required by policy.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — CONTINUED
December 31, 2009 and 2008
NOTE A — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired or loans otherwise classified as substandard or doubtful. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors.
A loan is impaired when full payment under the loan terms is not expected. Loan relationships over $500,000 that are rated substandard and are on non-accrual status are individually evaluated for impairment. If this evaluation indicated that there is a collateral shortfall and the loan is collateral dependent, the shortfall is charged off. If a loan that is not collateral dependent is impaired, a portion of the allowance is allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the fair value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate.
Foreclosed Assets Held for Sale
Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value less cost to sell at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in net income or expense from foreclosed assets.
Premises and Equipment
Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
Buildings and improvements — 10 to 39 years
Furniture and equipment — 3 to 10 years
Long-Term Assets
Premises and equipment and other long-term assets are reviewed for impairment when events indicate their carrying amount may not be recoverable from future undiscounted cash flows. If impaired, the assets are recorded at fair value.
Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) Stock
The Bank is a member of the FHLB system. Members are required to own a certain amount of stock based on the level of borrowings and other factors, and may invest in additional amounts. FHLB stock is carried at cost, classified as a restricted security, and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both cash and stock dividends are reported as income. The Corporation reviewed the FHLB Stock and based on the current performance of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis, the Corporation determined there was no impairment of this stock at December 31, 2009.

December 31, 2009 and 2008
NOTE A — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill results from business acquisitions and represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of acquired tangible assets and liabilities and identifiable intangible assets. Goodwill is assessed at least annually for impairment and any such impairment will be recognized in the period identified.
Other intangible assets consist of core deposit and business relationship intangible assets arising from bank acquisitions in 2004 and 2007. They are initially measured at fair value and are being amortized on an accelerated method over their estimated useful lives, which range from 10 to 11 years.
In addition to a quarterly review by management, goodwill and other intangible assets are evaluated annually by an outside consultant for impairment. If there is impairment, a non-cash impairment expense is recorded.
Stock Compensation
At December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Corporation has a share-based compensation plan, which is more fully described in Note P.
Loan Commitments and Related Financial Instruments
Financial instruments include off-balance sheet credit instruments, such as commitments to make loans and commercial letters of credit, issued to meet customer financing needs. The face amount for these items represents the exposure to loss, before considering customer collateral or ability to repay. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.
Stock Dividends
The fair value of shares issued in stock dividends is transferred from retained earnings to common stock. All share and per share amounts are retroactively adjusted for stock dividends.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — CONTINUED
December 31, 2009 and 2008
NOTE A — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Income Taxes
The Corporation files a consolidated federal income tax return. Income tax expense is the total of federal income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Corporation uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax amounts for the temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax amounts to the amount expected to be realized.
The Corporation adopted ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, formerly known as FASB Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”), as of January 1, 2007. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The adoption had no affect on the Corporation’s financial statements.
The Corporation recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.
Reclassifications
Some items in the prior year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net income.
Loss Contingencies
Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there now are such matters that will have a material effect on the financial statements.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share includes the dilutive effect of additional potential common shares issuable under stock options. Earnings (loss) per share is restated for all stock splits and dividends through the date of issue of the financial statements.
Comprehensive Income (loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income includes unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale, net of deferred income tax, which are also recognized as separate components of equity.

NOTE A — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Dividend Restrictions
Banking regulations require maintaining certain capital levels and may limit the dividends paid by the Bank to the Corporation or by the Corporation to stockholders.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in a separate note. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates.
Valuation Measurements
Valuation methodologies often involve a significant degree of judgment, particularly when there are no observable active markets for the items being valued. Investment securities and residential mortgage loans held for sale are carried at fair value, as defined in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, formerly SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurement”, which requires key judgments affecting how fair value for such assets and liabilities is determined. In addition, the outcomes of valuations have a direct bearing on the carrying amounts for goodwill, and intangibles assets. To determine the values of these assets and liabilities, as well as the extent to which related assets may be impaired, management makes assumptions and estimates related to discount rates, asset returns, prepayment rates and other factors. The use of different discount rates or other valuation assumptions could produce significantly different results, which could affect the Corporation’s results of operations.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
In July 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. This ASU requires some new disclosures and clarifies some existing disclosure requirements about fair value measurement as set forth in Codification Subtopic 820-10. The FASB’s objective is to improve these disclosures and, thus, increase the transparency in financial reporting. Specifically, ASU 2010-06 amends Codification Subtopic 820-10 to now require:
A reporting entity should disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers; and
In the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs, a reporting entity should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements.
In addition, ASU 2010-06 clarifies the requirements of the following existing disclosures:

NOTE A — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
For purposes of reporting fair value measurement for each class of assets and liabilities, a reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the appropriate classes of assets and liabilities; and
A reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements.
The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.
ASU 2009-01 (formerly SFAS No. 168), Topic 105 — Generally Accepted Accounting Principles - FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
ASU 2009-01 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (Codification) as the single source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. ASU 2009-01 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. We have made the appropriate changes to GAAP references in our financial statements.
Earnings Per Share (EPS): (formerly FSP EITF 03-6-1), Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Shared-Based Payment Transaction are Participating Securities.
In June 2008, the FASB issued ASC 260 which clarifies that unvested share-based payment awards with a right to receive nonforfeitable dividends are participating securities. ASC 260 also provides guidance on how to allocate earnings to participating securities and compute EPS using the two-class method. ASC 260 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years. The provisions of ASC 260 did not have a material impact on our EPS calculation.
ASU No. 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value codified in “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) — Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value”
In August 2009, this ASU provides amendments for fair value measurements of liabilities. It provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more techniques. ASU 2009-05 also clarifies that when estimating a fair value of a liability, a reporting entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of the liability. ASU 2009-05 is effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after issuance or fourth quarter 2009. The provisions of ASU 2009-05 did not have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or disclosures.
ASU 2009-01 (formerly SFAS No. 168), Topic 105 — Generally Accepted Accounting Principles — FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 810 (formerly FASB Statement No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)
In June 2009, the FASB issued this guidance which amends the consolidation guidance applicable to variable interest entities. The amendments to the consolidation guidance affect all entities currently within the scope of ASC Topic 810-10 (formerly FIN 46(R)), as well as qualifying special-purpose entities (QSPEs) that are currently excluded from the scope of that guidance. This guidance is effective as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009.

NOTE B — CONSENT ORDER AND GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS
Consent Order
Due to our financial condition, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and the Office of Financial and Insurance Regulation for the State of Michigan (“OFIR”) required that our Board of Directors sign a formal enforcement action (“Consent Order”) with the FDIC and OFIR which conveys specific actions needed to address certain findings from their examination and to address our current financial condition. We entered into the Consent Order on February 12, 2010, which contains a list of requirements that are to be met by specific dates. Certain requirements are listed below:
    Completion of a senior management study by an independent consultant
 
    Plans for the reduction of delinquencies and classified assets
 
    Plans for lending and collection policies
 
    Plans for the reduction of loan concentrations
 
    The revision and implementation of a comprehensive strategic plan
 
    The revision of its Liquidity Plan and the submission of weekly liquidity reports to the FDIC and OFIR
The Consent Order also includes a capital directive, which requires the Bank to have and maintain its level of tier 1 capital as a percentage of total assets (capital ratio) at a minimum of 9% and its level of qualifying total capital as a percentage of risk-weighted assets (total risk-based capital ratio) at a minimum of 12% . These ratios are in excess of the statutory minimums to be well-capitalized. At December 31, 2009, the Bank’s capital ratio was 5.10% and the Bank’s total risk-based capital ratio was 7.19%.
Additionally, the Bank is prohibited from declaring or paying any cash dividends without prior written consent of the FDIC.
The Bank submitted a Capital Restoration Plan (“CRP”) to the FDIC and OFIR on December 15, 2009, due to our undercapitalized status based on our September 30, 2009 regulatory report of condition and income. The CRP addresses, among other things, the steps management will take to cause our capital levels to return to the minimum level to be adequately capitalized.
The Bank is currently undercapitalized. Failure to meet the minimum ratios set forth in the Consent Order could result in regulators taking additional enforcement action against us.

NOTE B — CONSENT ORDER AND GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS (Con’t)
Going Concern
As a result of the effects of the economic downturn and the bankruptcy and downsizing of two major automotive manufacturers headquartered in our region, the capital of the Corporation and the Bank has been significantly depleted. Management is currently attempting to raise additional capital that will return the Bank to compliance with regulatory capital requirements of the Consent Order. Our ability to raise capital is contingent on the current capital markets and our financial performance. Available capital markets are not currently favorable and we cannot be certain of our ability to raise capital on any terms.
The losses reported by the Corporation during 2008 and 2009 were primarily due to large provisions for loan losses, the impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets and the establishment of a valuation allowance against the Corporation’s deferred tax asset. Prior to sustaining these losses in 2008 and 2009, the Corporation had a history of profitable operations. Our return to profitable operations is contingent on the economic recovery in our region and the stability of collateral values of the real estate that secures many of our loans. It is difficult to predict when the economy will begin to recover and the impact of that recovery on our operations. Therefore, we cannot predict the timing of our return to profitable operations.
While the Corporation believes that it may be able to raise sufficient capital to meet its capital requirements and manage loan losses in the near term until such time that the local economy improves without having to liquidate assets, the realization of assets in other than the normal course of business in order to provide liquidity could result in losses not reflected in these financial statements.

The unrealized losses on the Corporation’s investments were caused by interest rate increases. The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost bases of the investments. Because the Corporation does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not the Corporation will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Corporation does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2009.
The Corporation holds two single issuer trust preferred securities that are classified as securities held to maturity. The amortized cost and fair value of securities, held to maturity are listed below (in thousands):

Totals
  $ 336     $     $     $ 336  
 
                       
The contractual maturity of these securities is over five years.
The single issuer trust preferred securities were evaluated for other than temporary impairment by determining the strength of the underlying issuer and its ability to make the contractual principal and interest payments.
One issuer of a trust preferred security the Corporation holds is a bank holding company, headquartered in Michigan that owns commercial banks in several states. The Corporation received a third party valuation of this security and noted the cost basis exceeded the fair value of the security. Upon further analysis, the Corporation noted that the underlying issuer commenced deferral of interest payments on this trust preferred security for up to a period of five years. This issuer has been negatively impacted by the downturn in the economy and the asset quality issues that have impacted the financial services industry in the Michigan market. Various subsidiary banks held by this issuer have been downgraded to adequately-capitalized status as of September 30, 2009. The Corporation believes that based upon the continued deterioration of asset quality and regulatory capital ratio of this issuer results in an other-than-temporary impairment that is credit related. As a result, the Corporation recorded an other-than-temporary impairment charge of $414,000 through the income statement during the year ended December 31, 2009.
Certain debt securities have experienced fair value deterioration due to credit losses, as well as due to other market factors, but are not otherwise other-than-temporarily impaired. The following table provides information about debt securities for which only a credit loss was recognized in income and other losses are recorded in other comprehensive income.

Impaired loans and non-performing loans are defined differently. Impaired loans are loans for which the collection of principal and interest according to the contractual terms of the agreement is not probable. Non-performing loans include both smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment and individually classified impaired loans.
Non-performing loans included troubled debt restructuring of $59,420,000 at December 31, 2009. These loans were qualified as troubled debt restructuring due to changes from principal and interest payments to interest only payments, reduction of interest rates, or the lengthening of the amortization. Valuation allowances in the amount of $5,452,000 were recorded against the loans. At December 31, 2009, 3 loans classified as troubled debt restructuring amounting to $2,705,000 were not current according to their renegotiated terms.

During the fourth quarter of 2008, the significant decline in the market value of the Corporation’s stock below its book value and the decline in the economic environment in which the Corporation operates caused management to engage a third party business valuation specialist to perform the annual impairment test of goodwill and other intangible assets. The third party specialist used three methods of evaluation to determine the fair value of the reporting unit, Fidelity Bank. These methods considered the Bank’s discounted future earnings, the stock price of the Corporation and other comparable financial institutions and the equity values of other companies that have been sold. The value of each approach was weighted and an overall summary of the Bank’s fair value was calculated.
The step one impairment test indicated that the implied fair value of Fidelity Bank was well below the carrying amount as of December 31, 2008. Subsequently, management performed its own internal step two impairment testing by allocating the implied fair value of the Bank to all of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit. The implied fair value of the Bank was then compared to the actual carrying amount of goodwill. From this testing, management determined the carrying amount of goodwill exceeded in its entirety the implied fair value of goodwill.
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the year ended December 31, 2008 were as follows:
         
    Amount  
 
       
Balance, January 1, 2008
  $ 34,028  
Impairment loss during 2008
    (34,028 )
 
     
Balance, December 31, 2008
  $  
 
     
The impairment to the core deposit intangibles was primarily due to the erosion of core deposits at a faster rate than anticipated. The impairment of the customer relationship intangible is primarily due to the migration of loans at a more rapid rate than expected and the impact of current economic conditions on the loan portfolio. The impairment during 2009 left no residual value in these intangible assets.

Amounts advanced by the FHLB totaling $10,000,000 are subject to an option for the FHLB to convert the entire advance to a periodic adjustable rate one year after the date of the advance. If the FHLB exercises its option to convert the advance to an adjustable rate, the advance will be pre-payable at the Corporation’s option, at par without a penalty.
NOTE J — SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES
In 2002, Dearborn Bancorp Trust I, a special purpose entity formed by the Corporation, issued $10,000,000 of floating rate mandatory redeemable securities as part of a pooled offering. The Corporation issued $10,000,000 of subordinated debentures to the trust in exchange for the proceeds of the offering. The interest rate on the debentures is the three month LIBOR plus 3.35% and was 3.63% at December 31, 2009. The securities have a term of thirty years with interest payments due on a quarterly basis. The Corporation may redeem the debentures, with regulatory approval, at face value.
On August 28, 2009, the Corporation elected to defer regularly scheduled quarterly interest payments on Dearborn’s junior subordinated debentures (“Debentures”). While the Corporation defers the payment of interest, it will continue to accrue the interest expense owed at the applicable interest rate. At the expiration of the deferral period, all accrued and unpaid interest is due and payable.

NOTE L — DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Corporation in estimating its fair value disclosure for financial instruments:
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase, Interest-bearing Deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank Stock
The carrying amount approximates fair value.
Held-to-maturity Securities
Fair value is based on quoted market prices, if available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities.
Loans Held for Sale
Fair value is based upon the quoted price for the sale of those loans.
Loans
The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the market rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. Loans with similar characteristics were aggregated for purposes of the calculations. The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates its fair value.

NOTE L — DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (Continued)
Deposits
Deposits include demand deposits, savings accounts, NOW accounts and certain money market deposits. The carrying amount approximates fair value. The fair value of fixed-maturity time deposits is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Interest Receivable and Interest Payable
The carrying amount approximates fair value.
Federal Home Loan Bank Advances
Rates currently available to the Corporation for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of existing debt. Fair value of long-term debt is based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market. If a quoted market price is not available, an expected present value technique is used to estimate fair value.
Subordinated Debentures
Rates currently available to the Corporation for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of existing debt.
Commitments to Originate Loans, Forward Sale Commitments, Letters of Credit and Lines of Credit
The fair value of commitments to originate loans is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair value of forward sale commitments is estimated based on current market prices for loans of similar terms and credit quality. The fair values of letters of credit and lines of credit are based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date. The fair value of such arrangements are not considered material to this presentation.

Effective January 1, 2008, the Corporation adopted ASC 820 (formerly SFAS 157) Fair Value Measurements” (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 has been applied prospectively as of the beginning of 2008.
ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 — Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 2 securities are valued by a third party pricing service commonly used in the banking industry, utilizing observable inputs. Observable inputs include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flow analysis, the U.S. Treasury curve, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment spreads and available credit information. The pricing provided utilizes evaluated pricing models that are based on asset class. These models incorporate available market information including quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics and, because many fixed income securities do not trade on a daily basis, apply available information through processes such as benchmark curves and matrix pricing.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying balance sheet, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to our valuation hierarchy.
Securities available for sale
One component of the Corporation’s securities, available for sale are money market funds that are based on quoted prices in active markets and are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. The values of all other securities, available for sale are estimated by a third party using inputs that are observable or that can be corroborated by observable market data and, therefore, are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.
Level 2 securities are valued by a third party pricing service commonly used in the banking industry, utilizing observable inputs. Observable inputs include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flow analysis, the U.S. Treasury curve, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment spreads and available credit information. The pricing provided utilizes evaluated pricing models that are based on asset class. These models incorporate available market information including quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics and, because many fixed income securities do not trade on a daily basis, apply available information through processes such as benchmark curves and matrix pricing. Level 2 securities include US Government sponsored entity securities, corporate bonds and mortgage-backed securities.

Following is a description of the valuation methodology for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying balance sheet.
Impaired Loans (Collateral Dependent)
Loans for which it is probable that the Corporation will not collect all principal and interest due according to contractual terms are measured for impairment. Allowable methods for determining the amount of impairment include estimating fair value using the fair value of the collateral for collateral-dependent loans.
If the impaired loan is identified as collateral dependent, then the fair value method of measuring the amount of impairment is utilized. This method requires obtaining a current independent appraisal of the collateral and applying a discount factor to the value. Impaired loans that are collateral dependent are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy when impairment is determined using the fair value method.
Real Estate Owned
The fair value of other real estate owned is measured based on the value of the collateral securing those loans/real estate and is determined using several methods. The fair value of real estate is generally determined based on appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers. The appraisers typically determine the value of the real estate by utilizing an income or market valuation approach. If an appraisal is not available, the fair value may be determined by using a cash flow analysis. Fair value on the collateral such as business assets is typically calculated by using financial information such as financial statements and aging reports provided by the borrower and is discounted as considered appropriate.

NOTE M — COMMITMENTS AND CREDIT RISK
Loan Commitments
Some financial instruments, such as loan commitments, credit lines, letters of credit and overdraft protection, are issued to meet customer financing needs. These are agreements to provide credit or to support the credit of others, as long as conditions established in the contract are met, and usually have expiration dates. Commitments may expire without being used. Off-balance sheet risk to credit loss exists up to the face amount of these instruments, although material losses are not anticipated. The same policies are used to make such commitments as are used for loans, including obtaining collareral at exercise of the commitment.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there are no violations of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require a payment of a fee. Since portions of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Corporation evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case by case basis. The amount of collateral obtained upon extension of credit is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.

NOTE N — EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The Bank maintains a 401(k) plan for its employees. All employees are eligible to participate in the 401(k) plan after completion of age and service requirements. An employee can be enrolled as a participant on the first “Enrollment Date” after reaching age 18 and completing six months of service.
Contributions to the plan by the Bank are discretionary and are expensed as made. Historically, the Bank had matched 50% of the first 6% of employee contributions to the plan. Employer contributions vest 20% per year for five years. As of October 1, 2009, the Bank discontinued the practice of matching employee contributions to the plan due to the declining performance of the Bank during the recent economic downturn.
During 2009 and 2008, employer contributions were $203,000 and $243,000, respectively.
NOTE O — REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
The Corporation and Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for the Bank, the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Corporation and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Under the Consent Order dated February 12, 2010, the Bank is required to achieve and maintain tier 1 capital as a percentage of total assets of 9% or higher and total capital as a percentage of risk-weighted assets of 12% or higher within 120 days from the effective date of the order.

NOTE P — INCENTIVE STOCK PLANS
Incentive stock awards have been granted to officers and employees under two Incentive Stock Plans. The first plan is the 1994 Stock Option Plan. Options to buy common stock have been granted to officers and employees under the 1994 Stock Option Plan, which provides for issue of up to 814,449 shares. Exercise price is the market price at date of grant. The maximum option term is ten years, and options vest fully after six months from the date of grant. No options are available for grant under this plan.
A summary of the option activity in the 1994 Plan follows:
                 
            Weighted  
            Average  
    Options     Exercise  
    Outstanding     Price  
Outstanding at January 1, 2009
    360,398     $ 8.65

Outstanding At December 31, 2009
    360,398     $ 8.65  
 
             
At December 31, 2009 and 2008 respectively, 360,398 options were exercisable at weighted average exercise price of $8.65.
There were no options exercised during 2008 or 2009. The options outstanding at December 31, 2008 or 2009 had no intrinsic value.
During 2005, the Corporation initiated the 2005 Long-Term Incentive Plan. Under this plan, up to 347,248 shares may be granted to officers and employees of the Bank. This plan provides that stock awards may take the form of any combination of options, shares, share units or performance awards.
The administration of the plan, including the granting of awards and the nature of those awards, is determined by the Corporation’s Compensation Committee. The Corporation’s Board of Directors approved grants of performance-based stock options and restricted stock in 2005 and 2006. The Corporation’s Board of Directors approved grants of stock options and restricted stock without performance criteria in 2008. The awards have a term of ten years and typically vest fully three years from the grant date.
Stock Options Granted — The incentive stock options were granted with the exercise price equal to market price on the day of grant. The weighted average fair value of the options granted at grant date was $1.56. The following assumptions were used to determine the fair value of the options granted in 2008:
         
    2008
 
       
Risk-free interest rate
    2.92 %
Expected option life
  7.0 years
Dividend yield

NOTE T — SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES AND CONCENTRATIONS
Current Economic Conditions
The current protracted economic decline presents financial institutions with unprecedented circumstances and challenges which in some cases have resulted in large declines in the fair values of investments and other assets, constraints on liquidity and significant credit quality problems, including severe volatility in the valuation of real estate and other collateral supporting loans. The financial statements have been prepared using values and information currently available to the Corporation.
The Corporation is further affected by the economic conditions specific to Southeastern Michigan due to the importance of the automobile industry to the local economy. While the Corporation does not have significant exposure to automobile manufacturers and suppliers, the downturn in the automotive industry has had an adverse effect on many of the Corporation’s borrowers and the Corporation’s allowance for loan losses.
The Corporation’s allowance for loan losses contains certain assumptions on the value of collateral dependent loans as well as certain economic and industry conditions which may be subject to change within the next year. These changes could have an adverse impact on the allowance for loan losses in the near term.
Given the volatility of current economic conditions, the values of assets and liabilities recorded in the financial statements could change rapidly, resulting in material future adjustments in asset values, the allowance for loan losses and capital which could negatively impact the Corporation’s ability to meet regulatory capital requirements and maintain sufficient liquidity.
Loan Concentrations
Our lending operations may be subject to enhanced scrutiny by banking regulators based on our concentration of commercial real estate loans (“CRE”). CRE loans generally include land development, construction loans and loans secured by multifamily property, and nonfarm, nonresidential real property where the primary source of repayment is derived from rental income associated with the property.
As of December 31, 2009, our concentration of construction, land development and other land loans totaled 199.0% and our CRE concentration, net of owner-occupied loans, as a percentage of capital totaled 997.0%.

The Corporation was formed to acquire all of the Bank’s issued and outstanding stock and to engage in the business of a bank holding corporation under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “Act”).
Community Bank of Dearborn (the “Bank”), a Michigan banking corporation, commenced business on February 28, 1994 in Dearborn, Michigan. The Bank was renamed Fidelity Bank on April 30, 2007. The Bank is the only commercial bank headquartered in Dearborn, Michigan and offers a full line of loan and deposit products and services. The Bank offers excellent customer service to its loan and deposit customers and maintains strong relationships with the communities served by the Bank. The Bank emphasizes strong loan quality, excellent customer service and efficient operations in order to maximize profitability and shareholder value.
In 2004, the Corporation acquired the Bank of Washtenaw from Pavillion Bancorp. The Bank of Washtenaw’s three banking offices, all of which are located in Washtenaw County, Michigan were successfully consolidated into the Bank.
The Corporation completed the acquisition of Fidelity Financial Corporation of Michigan (Fidelity), a commercial bank with seven offices in Oakland County, Michigan on January 4, 2007. The acquisition significantly expanded the Bank’s presence in Oakland County, Michigan. Management believes that the acquisition has been beneficial to the Bank’s customers and the Corporation’s shareholders.
The Bank currently operates seventeen banking offices in Wayne, Macomb, Oakland and Washtenaw Counties, Michigan. A list of banking offices is shown on page 55.
The Corporation’s earnings depend primarily on net interest income. Management strives to maximize net interest income through monitoring the economic and competitive environment and making appropriate adjustments in the characteristics and pricing of our products and services.
Other factors that contribute significantly to our earnings are the maintenance of strong asset quality and efficient operations. Management continually monitors the quality of the loan portfolio and the impact of the economic and competitive environment and takes appropriate measures to maintain high asset quality.
The Bank’s market area consists primarily of the Metropolitan Detroit area. This is a large real estate market and the Bank’s loan portfolio accounts for less than one percent of this market. The Detroit real estate market has been negatively impacted by the unfavorable economic conditions in the State of Michigan. Despite the local economy and its impact on certain industries, many local industries and economies are performing well. The Bank has attempted to maintain asset quality in this environment by enforcing strong underwriting guidelines and utilizing a diligent loan review process. Despite these measures, the Bank has recorded charge-offs of certain loans, as the value of the underlying collateral of certain non-performing loans has continued to decline. Additionally, the carrying values of real estate owned properties have been adjusted appropriately, as the market value of the real estate has declined.
The Corporation recorded a net loss of ($61,175,000) during 2009, compared to a net loss of ($31,925,000) during 2008. The factors that contributed primarily to the decline in earnings during 2009 were various costs related to the Bank’s non-performing assets such as provision for loan losses, the write-down and loss on sale of other real estate and defaulted loan expense, the recording of a valuation allowance on the Corporation’s deferred tax asset, the impairment of intangible assets and the increase in FDIC assessment expense.

The most significant factor in the decline in earnings during 2009 was the costs related to the Bank’s non-performing assets. The Corporation recorded provision for loan loss of $50,863,000 during 2009 compared to $14,606,000 during 2008. The provision for loan losses is determined by the internal analysis of the allowance for loan losses and the large increase during 2009 was the result of a higher level of non-performing loans and net charge-offs. Net charge-offs amounted to $30,190,000 during 2009 compared to $10,771,000 during 2008. The Corporation also recorded $2,905,000 for the write-down and loss on sale of other real estate in 2009 compared to $3,037,000 during 2008. The Corporation also recorded defaulted loan expense of $4,624,000 during 2009 compared to $2,078,000 during 2008. The increase in defaulted loans expense was due to the property tax expense and other holding costs related to the increased amount of collateral transferred to real estate owned during 2009.
During 2009, our local markets were significantly impacted by the unprecedented bankruptcy filings of two major automobile manufacturers during the second quarter of 2009. While the Corporation had no direct exposure to these entities, these bankruptcy filings, subsequent shutdown of production for several months and the resulting employee layoffs has had a devastating impact on the general economic conditions in Southeastern Michigan during 2009. This downturn in economic activity has continued to worsen the condition of the residential real estate market during 2009 as well as to significantly impact the Bank’s commercial and commercial real estate mortgage portfolios. This downturn has also led to a significant decline in collateral values of all types of real property.
Another significant factor in the loss recorded during 2009 was the recording of a valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset in the amount of $25,851,000. This non-cash charge eliminates the Corporation’s deferred tax asset in its entirety.
Another factor was the impairment of intangibles assets during 2009, which amounted to $3,997,000. The impairment to the core deposit intangibles was primarily due to the erosion of core deposits at a faster rate than anticipated and the transfer of core deposits to time deposits. The impairment of the customer relationship intangible is primarily due to the migration of loans at a more rapid rate than expected and the impact of current economic conditions on the loan portfolio.
The Corporation also recorded addition FDIC assessment expense during 2009. FDIC assessment expense amounted to $2,843,000 during 2009 compared to $696,000 in 2008, an increase of $2,147,000. This increase was primarily due to a special assessment charged to banks and the increased assessment rates charged during 2009
As a result of the loss recorded during 2009, the capitalization status of the Bank declined from well capitalized to undercapitalized. As a result of the decline in the Bank’s capitalization level, the Bank is limited in its utilization of brokered deposits. The Bank is also restricted in the setting of deposit interest rates. Additionally, there are limitations in the borrowing terms and capacity with the Federal Reserve Bank.
The loss incurred during 2009 was largely driven by problems related to the increase in the Bank’s level of non-performing assets. Management has continued to supplement its Special Assets Department, which is responsible for the management of most non-performing loans and the liquidation of real estate owned. During 2009. the Bank continued to provide additional resources to this department by adding a Special Assets Manager and an additional loan officer in this department. The reduction of non-performing assets is a primary objective of management and is critical to the future success of the Corporation.
The Bank submitted a Capital Restoration Plan (“CRP”) to the FDIC and OFIR on December 15, 2009, due to our undercapitalized status based on our September 30, 2009 regulatory report of condition and income. The CRP addresses, among other things, the steps management will take to cause our capital levels to return to the minimum level to be adequately capitalized.
On February 12, 2010, the Bank received a Consent Order that is effective February 22, 2010 from the FDIC and OFIR, its principal regulators, subsequent to a safety and soundness exam which outlined a variety of requirements to fulfill within certain timelines.
The Bank has also formed two subsidiaries that offer additional or specialized services to the Bank’s customers. The Bank’s subsidiaries, their formation date and the type of services offered are listed below:

Forward-Looking Statements
The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that are based on management’s beliefs, assumptions, current expectations, estimates and projections about the financial services industry, the economy, and about the Corporation and Bank. Words such as “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “expects”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “is likely”, “plans”, “projects”, variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward- looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions (“Future Factors”) that are difficult to predict with regard to timing, extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence. Therefore, actual results and outcomes may materially differ from what may be expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. The Corporation undertakes no obligation to update, amend or clarify forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events (whether anticipated or unanticipated), or otherwise.
Future Factors include changes in interest rates and interest rate relationships; demand for products and services; the degree of competition by traditional and non-traditional competitors; changes in banking regulation; changes in tax laws; changes in prices, levies and assessments; the impact of technological advances; governmental and regulatory policy changes; the outcomes of contingencies; trends in customer behavior as well as their ability to repay loans; and changes in the national and local economy. These are representative of the Future Factors that could cause a difference between an ultimate actual outcome and a preceding forward-looking statement.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, as well as disclosures found elsewhere in the annual report, are based upon the consolidated financial statements of Dearborn Bancorp, Inc., which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires Dearborn Bancorp, Inc. to make estimates and judgements that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. Management’s evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is an estimate based primarily on reviews of individual loans, assessments of the impact of current economic conditions on the portfolio, and historical loss experience. See Note D of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and the discussion of “Allowance for Loan Losses” in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis.
Management believes the accounting estimates related to the allowance for loan losses is a “critical accounting estimate” because:
  1)   The estimates are highly susceptible to change from period to period and require management to make judgements concerning the quality of the loan portfolio and the impact of current economic conditions on borrowers’ ability to repay their loans.
 
  2)   The impact of recognizing an impairment or loan loss could have a material effect on the financial statements of Dearborn Bancorp, Inc.
Management has discussed the development and selection of these critical accounting estimates with the audit committee of the board of directors and the audit committee has reviewed the Corporation’s disclosures related to them in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

Results of Operations
2009 Compared to 2008. The Corporation reported a net loss of ($61,175,000) in 2009 compared to a net loss of ($31,925,000) in 2008, a decrease of $29,250,000. The loss in 2009 included a non-cash impairment charge for the impairment of other intangible assets in the amount of $3,997,000, a non-cash charge for the recording of a valuation allowance on the Corporation’s deferred tax asset in the amount of $25,581,000 and a non-cash benefit for the extended period of time that net operating losses could be carried back. This increase in the period that losses can be carried back, resulted in a refund of $5,452,000. When these non-cash charges and benefits are excluded from net income, the Corporation’s net loss is ($37,503,000), compared to a net loss of ($5,788,000) for 2008, an increase in the loss of $31,715,000.
The larger net loss during 2009 is due primarily to the provision for loan loss, the recording of a valuation allowance against the Corporation’s deferred tax asset, FDIC assessment and defaulted loan expense. The Corporation recorded provision for loan losses of $50,863,000 during 2009 compared to $14,606,000 during 2008. The provision for loan losses is determined by the internal analysis of the allowance for loan losses and the large increase during 2009 was the result of a higher level of non-performing loans and net charge-offs. Net charge-offs amounted to $30,190,000 during 2009 compared to $10,771,000 during 2008.
Another significant factor in the loss recorded during 2009 was the recording of a valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset in the amount of $25,851,000. This non-cash charge eliminates the Corporation’s deferred tax asset in its entirety.
The Corporation also incurred FDIC expense of $2,843,000 during 2009, compared to $696,000 during 2008. The increase in FDIC expense was due to the special assessment levied by the FDIC and the increased assessment rate for the fourth quarter. The Corporation also recorded defaulted loan expense of $4,624,000 during 2009 compared to $2,078,000 during 2008.
Income during 2009 was also impacted by a compression in the Corporation’s net interest margin compared with 2008. This was the result of the increase in non-performing loans and the decline in short term interest rates.
2008 Compared to 2007. The Corporation reported a net loss of ($31,925,000) in 2008 compared to net income of $3,166,000 in 2007, a decrease of $35,091,000. The Corporation’s decline in net income was primarily due to a non cash impairment charge for the impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets. If the after-tax impact of this impairment charge is excluded, the Corporation’s net loss would be ($5,788,000), compared to net income of $3,166,000 in 2007, a decrease of $8,954,000. The decrease in net income excluding the impairment charge is primarily due to the provision for loan loss, other costs related to the Bank’s non-performing assets and the decline in net interest income.

Net Interest Income
2009 Compared to 2008. Net interest income in 2009 was $30,886,000 compared to $32,131,000 in 2008, a decrease of $1,245,000 or 4%. The decrease in net interest income was primarily due to the decline in interest rates during 2009 and the volume of assets and liabilities affected by the decline in rates. As the Corporation has interest sensitive assets of $1,005,918,000 and $975,337,000 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively and interest bearing liabilities of $$887,010,000 and $834,731,000 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, the decline in interest rates causes a decrease in net interest income. The Corporation’s net interest rate spread decreased to 2.77% in 2009 from 2.80% in 2008, a decrease of 3 basis points. The Corporation’s net interest margin also decreased to 3.07% in 2009 from 3.29% in 2008, a decrease of 22 basis points. The decrease in the net interest rate spread was due to the decline in interest rates on the Corporation’s interest-bearing assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the increase in non-performing assets.
Average interest earning assets grew by $30.6 million between the periods while interest bearing liabilities grew by $52.3 million. Interest bearing liabilities were grown during the latter half of 2009 in order to improve the liquidity position of the Corporation. Management expects to increase time deposits as a percentage of deposits.
2008 Compared to 2007. Net interest income in 2008 was $32,131,000 compared to $33,619,000 in 2007, a decrease of $1,488,000 or 4%. The decrease in net interest income was primarily due to the decline in interest rates during 2008 and the volume of assets and liabilities affected by the decline in rates. As the Corporation has interest sensitive assets and liabilities of $975,337,000 and $834,731,000 for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, the decline in interest rates causes a decrease in net interest income. The Corporation’s net interest rate spread increased to 2.80% in 2008 from 2.73% in 2007, an increase of 7 basis points. However, the Corporation’s net interest margin decreased to 3.29% in 2008 from 3.48% in 2007, a decrease of 19 basis points. The increase in the net interest rate spread was due to the decline in interest rates on the Corporation’s interest-bearing assets and interest-bearing liabilities.
Average Balances, Interest Rates and Yields. Net interest income is affected by the difference (“interest rate spread”) between rates of interest earned on interest earning assets and rates of interest paid on interest bearing liabilities and the relative amounts of interest bearing liabilities and interest earning assets. When the total of interest earning assets approximates or exceeds the total of interest bearing liabilities, any positive interest rate spread will generate net interest income. Financial institutions have traditionally used interest rate spreads as a measure of net interest income. Another indication of an institution’s net interest income is its “net yield on interest earning assets” or “net interest margin,” which is net interest income divided by average interest earning assets.
The following table sets forth certain information relating to the Corporation’s consolidated average interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities and reflects the average yield on assets and average cost of liabilities for the periods indicated. Such yields and costs are derived by dividing income or expense by the average daily balance of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented. During the periods indicated, non-accruing loans, if any, are included in the net loan category.

Rate/Volume Analysis. The following table analyzes net interest income in terms of changes in the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and changes in yields and rates. The table reflects the extent to which changes in the interest income and interest expense are attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior year rate) and changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior year volume). Changes attributable to the combined impact of volume and rate have been allocated proportionately to changes due to volume and changes due to rate.

Provision for Loan Losses
2009 Compared to 2008. The provision for loan losses was $50,863,000 in 2009, compared to $14,606,000 in 2008, an increase of $36,257,000 or 248%. The increase in provision during 2009 was due primarily to the increase in non-accrual loans and net charge-offs during the period as a result of the downturn in economic activity that rapidly accelerated in early 2009. During 2009, our local markets were significantly impacted by the unprecedented bankruptcy filings of two major automobile manufacturers during the second quarter of 2009. While the Corporation had no direct exposure to these entities, these bankruptcy filings, subsequent shutdown of production for several months and the resulting employee layoffs has had a devastating impact on the general economic conditions in Southeastern Michigan during 2009. This downturn in economic activity has continued to worsen the condition of the residential real estate market during 2009 as well as to significantly impact the Bank’s commercial and commercial real estate mortgage portfolios. This downturn has also led to a significant decline in collateral values of all types of real property. Non-accrual loans declined to $49,341,000 at December 31, 2009 from $51,708,000 at December 31, 2008. The charge-off policy utilized by the Bank was also revised due to updated regulatory guidance. The Bank is required to record charge-offs on any substandard collateral dependent loan to reduce the loan balance to its fair value. Previously, the Bank would include any collateral shortfall on substandard collateral dependent loans in the allowance for loan losses. During 2009, the Bank recorded net charge-offs of $30,190,000 compared to $10,771,000 during 2008. At the time of origination, these land development loans were well-collateralized loans with well-established real estate developers and home builders. However, the underlying value of our collateral related to these types of loans has declined as the demand for new residential construction in Southeastern Michigan has diminished dramatically.
The fair value of loans specifically reviewed by management and determined to be impaired increased to $90,135,000 at December 31, 2009 from $41,907,000 at December 31, 2008. The allocated allowance of loans specifically reviewed by management and determined to be impaired increased to $8,297,000 at December 31, 2009 from $5,273,000 at December 31, 2008. Decreases in the fair value of impaired loans are reflected in the provision for loan loss and are primarily due to declines in the value of the underlying collateral.
The provision for loan losses is based upon management’s assessment of relevant factors, including types and amounts of non-performing loans, historical loss experience on such types of loans, the relevant change in the size and mix of the loan portfolio and the impact of current economic conditions on borrowers’ ability to repay their loans.
2008 Compared to 2007. The provision for loan losses was $14,606,000 in 2008, compared to $5,821,000 in 2007, an increase of $8,785,000 or 151%. The increase in provision during 2008 was due primarily to the increase in non-accrual loans and net charge-offs during the period as a result of the downturn in economic activity that began in 2007 and has continued into 2008. This downturn in economic activity has continued to worsen the condition of the residential real estate market during 2008 as well as to significantly impact the Bank’s commercial and commercial real estate mortgage portfolios. Non-accrual loans increased to $51,708,000 at December 31, 2008 from $18,117,000 at December 31, 2007. During 2008, the Bank recorded net charge-offs of $10,771,000 compared to $4,683,000 during 2007. The poor economic conditions in Southeastern Michigan that began in 2007 and have intensified during 2008 have significantly impacted our commercial, commercial real estate mortgage and land development portfolios. At the time of origination, these land development loans were well-collateralized loans with well-established real estate developers and home builders. However, the underlying value of our collateral related to these types of loans has declined as the demand for new residential construction in Southeastern Michigan has diminished dramatically.
Non-Interest Income
2009 Compared to 2008. Non-interest income was ($469,000) in 2009, compared to ($930,000) in 2008, an increase of $461,000 or 50%. The increase was primarily due to the increase in the gain on the sale of loans, increased rental income on other real estate and a decline in the losses recognized on the sale of other real estate write-down and loss on sale of real estate owned. During 2009, the Corporation recorded write-downs on 44 properties in the amount of $2,766,000. The Corporation recorded a net loss of $139,000 on the sale of 22 properties during 2009.

2008 Compared to 2007.    Non-interest income was ($930,000) in 2008, compared to $1,020,000 in 2007, a decrease of $1,950,000 or 191%. The increase was primarily due to the increase in the write-down and loss on sale of real estate owned. During 2008, the Corporation recorded write-downs on eleven properties in the amount of $2,292,000. The Corporation recorded a net loss of $745,000 on the sale of fifteen properties during 2008. Service charges and other fees to customers were $1,760,000 in 2008 compared to $1,408,000 in 2007, an increase of $352,000 or 25%.
Non-Interest Expense
2009 Compared to 2008.    Non-interest expense was $32,720,000 in 2009 compared to $65,007,000 in 2008 a decrease of $32,287,000 or 50%. The decrease in non-interest expense was primarily due to the impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets in 2008, partially offset by the impairment of intangible assets in 2009. This non-cash expense was due to the evaluation of the Bank’s intangible assets as of September 30, 2009. This valuation determined that the Bank’s intangible assets were entirely impaired.
When the non-cash impairment charges are excluded from 2009 and 2008, non-interest expense was $28,723,000 compared to $25,406,000 in 2008, an increase of $3,317,000 or 13%. This increase during 2009 is primarily due to the increase in defaulted loan expense, which is primarily comprised of real estate taxes, legal expense, insurance expense and maintenance expense related to real estate owned and non-performing loans and the increase in the FDIC assessment. Defaulted loan expense for 2009 was $4,624,000 compared to $2,078,000 during 2008, an increase of $2,546,000 or 123%. The FDIC assessment for 2009 was $2,843,000 compared to $696,000 during 2008, an increase of $2,147,000 or 308%.
The largest component of the decrease in non-interest expense was salaries and employee benefits which amounted to $12,974,000 in 2009 compared to $13,142,000 in 2008, a decrease of $168,000 or 1%. As of December 31, 2009, the number of full time equivalent employees was 194 compared to 205 as of December 31, 2008.
2008 Compared to 2007.    Non-interest expense was $65,007,000 in 2008 compared to $23,796,000 in 2007, an increase of $41,211,000 or 173%. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily due to the impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets. This non-cash expense was due to the evaluation of the Bank’s goodwill and intangible assets as of December 31, 2008. This valuation determined that the Bank’s goodwill and intangible assets were impaired by $34,028,000 and $5,573,000, respectively.
When the non-cash impairment charge is excluded, non-interest expense was $25,406,000 compared to $23,796,000 in 2007, an increase of $1,610,000 or 7%. This increase during 2008 is primarily due to the increase in defaulted loan expense, which is primarily comprised of real estate taxes, legal expense, insurance expense and maintenance expense related to real estate owned and non-performing loans. Defaulted loan expense for 2008 was $2,078,000 compared to $685,000 during 2007, an increase of $1,393,000 or 204%.
Income Tax Provision
2009 Compared to 2008.    Income tax expense (benefit) was $8,009,000 in 2009 compared to ($16,847,000) in 2008, an increase of $24,856,000. The increase was primarily due to the recording of a valuation allowance on the Corporation’s deferred tax asset in the amount of $25,851,000. As noted in the discussion of the provision for loan losses, two major automobile manufacturers filed for bankruptcy during 2009. The negative impact of these filings led to a significant increase in non-performing assets and subsequent losses recognized on these assets. These losses led management to evaluate the ability to utilize the deferred tax asset in a reasonable period. Management determined that utilizing the deferred tax asset was not verifiable and accordingly has fully reserved this asset. This non-cash charge eliminates the Corporation’s deferred tax asset in its entirety. Until this valuation allowance is retired, the Corporation will not record income tax expense or benefit. Refer to Note L of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
2008 Compared to 2007.    Income tax expense (benefit) was ($16,487,000) in 2008 compared to $1,856,000 in 2007, a decrease of $18,343,000. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in income before federal income tax. Refer to Note K of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Assets. Total assets at December 31, 2009 were $986,486,000 compared to $1,121,918,000 at December 31, 2008, a decrease of $135,432,000 or 12%. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in net loans, securities available for sale, other assets, partially offset by an increase in other real estate and cash and cash equivalents. The decrease in other assets was primarily due to the recording of a valuation allowance on the Corporation’s deferred tax asset.
Securities Available for Sale. Total securities available for sale, at December 31, 2009 were $45,964,000 compared to $84,148,000 at December 31, 2008, a decrease of $38,184,000 or 45%. The decrease was primarily due to the sale of a short-term investment. The Bank’s portfolio of securities available for sale has an amortized cost and a fair value of $46.0 million.

The decrease in loans during 2009 was primarily due to net charge-offs of $30,190,000, the transfer of loans to other real estate in the amount of $21,547,000 and normal loan amortization.
The Bank expects all types of commercial loans to decline during 2010, as management continues to focus on management of the existing loan portfolio and decreasing the level of non-performing loans in the portfolio. The Bank’s portfolio of consumer and residential loans will remain relatively stable as the repayment streams of these types of loans will be replaced by the active origination of these types of loans.

Variable rate loans comprise 19% of the loan portfolio. The interest rates of these loans change or reprice at specific intervals according to certain market indices. The remainder of the loan portfolio has a fixed interest rate until maturity.
The Bank automatically places any loan that has been partially charged-off and most consumer loan borrowers in bankruptcy proceedings on non-accrual. The Bank on a discretionary basis places loans on non-accrual when a borrower is in bankruptcy where adequate security cannot be demonstrated and the borrower ceases paying interest. All other loans are typically placed on non-accrual after the borrower is ninety days or more past due unless collection is expected within 60 days. Refer to Note C of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Non-performing loans included troubled debt restructuring of $59,420,000 at December 31, 2009. These loans were qualified as troubled debt restructuring due to changes from principal and interest payments to interest only payments, restructuring of collateral, or renewals of interest reserves when current loan to value ratios were outside of our normal loan policy. Accordingly, these loans are deemed impaired upon restructuring. Any necessary valuation allowance is set aside for these loans in the allowance for loan losses. At December 31, 2009, specific allocations for loans classified as troubled debt restructuring amount to $5,452,000. At December 31, 2009, 3 loans classified as troubled debt restructuring amounting to $2,705,000 were not performing according to their restructured terms.
Non-accrual loans at December 31, 2009 were $49,341,000. The increase in non-accrual loans during the year ended December 31, 2009 is primarily due to the downgrading of 101 loans with a balance of $34,695,000 to non-accrual status. An impairment analysis was completed on these loans and any loans with a collateral shortfall were charged down to the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. The fair value of the collateral is determined primarily through the utilization of prior appraisals, which are discounted according to age of the appraisal and the utilization of supplemental current market information. Charge-offs in the amount of $30,190,000 were recorded on these loans by the Corporation during 2009. We continue to work to collect these loans as they are all secured by real estate which we believe will have significant value, even in liquidation.

The increase in non-performing loans is primarily related to the Bank’s commercial and commercial real estate loans as well as loans financing the development and construction of residential property. The decline of general economic conditions in Southeastern Michigan which intensified during 2009 has negatively impacted many or the Bank’s commercial borrowers. The collapse of the value of the residential real estate market in Southeastern Michigan has negatively impacted the underlying collateral value of our portfolio of land development and construction loans. At the time of origination, these loans were well-collateralized loans with well-established real estate developers and home builders. However, the underlying value of our collateral related to these types of loans has declined as the demand for new residential construction in Southeastern Michigan has diminished dramatically and the adverse impact on our loan portfolio is expected to continue. The distribution of non-accrual loans by loan type (dollars, in thousands) is as follows at December 31, 2009:

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2009 was $35,125,000 compared to $14,452,000 at December 31, 2008, an increase of $20,673,000 or 143%. The large increase in provision for loan losses during 2009 was primarily the result of net charge-offs and the increase in problem loans during the year. Net charge-offs amounted to $30,190,000 during 2009. These charge-offs are primarily related to the Bank’s commercial and commercial real estate loans as well as loans financing the development and construction of residential property. The decline of general economic conditions in Southeastern Michigan as previously discussed has negatively impacted many of the Bank’s commercial borrowers. The collapse of the value of the residential real estate market in Southeastern Michigan has negatively impacted the underlying collateral value of our portfolio of land development and construction loans. This downturn in the residential real estate market is expected to continue and management expects the decline in the market value of our collateral to continue. The allowance for loan losses was based upon management’s assessment of relevant factors, including specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, loan growth, types and amounts of non-performing loans, historical and anticipated loss experience on such types of loans, and current economic conditions. Transactions in the allowance for loan losses for the years ended December 31, are as follows (in thousands):

The increase in the allowance for loan losses was based upon management’s assessment of relevant factors, including types and amounts of non-performing loans, historical loss experience for the Bank and for other banks in the peer group on such types of loans, the relevant change in the size and mix of the Bank’s loan portfolio and expected impact of current economic conditions on borrowers’ ability to repay their loans.
Management made significant enhancements to its methodology for analyzing its allowance for loan losses during 2009. These enhancements were made in order to more accurately identify the risk factors and their impact on the Bank’s loan portfolio. These enhancements to our analysis include:
    The period utilized for the consideration of net charge-offs was shortened from two years to one year based on the nature of the economic environment in Southeastern Michigan.
 
    The charge-off policy utilized by the Bank was also revised due to updated regulatory guidance. The Bank is required to record charge-offs on any substandard collateral dependent loan to reduce the loan balance to its fair value. Previously, the Bank would include any collateral shortfall on substandard collateral dependent loans in the allowance for loan losses.
 
    The loans that were individually analyzed for impairment was changed during 2009 to include any loans over $500,000 that were on non-accrual status and any loans that were classified as troubled debt restructuring. Previously, all substandard loans greater that $150,000 were individually analyzed for impairment and loans classified as troubled debt restructuring were not individually analyzed.
 
    The loss factors applied to those loans not individually analyzed was modified to more accurately include the risk of charge-off by loan type.
Management believes that these enhancements in its methodology of analyzing its allowance for loan losses will identify the risk inherent in its loan portfolio more effectively.

Premises and Equipment. Premises and equipment at December 31, 2009 were $20,194,000 compared to $21,272,000 at December 31, 2008, a decrease of $1,078,000 or 5%. The decrease was primarily due to the depreciation of the Bank’s fixed assets.
Real Estate Owned. Real estate owned at December 31, 2009 was $23,435,000, compared to $9,657,000 at December 31, 2008, an increase of $13,778,000 or 143%. Prior to being transferred to real estate owned, a valuation of the collateral is completed. Depending on the scope of the collateral, new appraisals may be performed as part of this process. If a new appraisal is not deemed to be necessary, valuations are completed internally by lending professionals based on prior appraisals and other current market information. Prior appraisals are discounted based on the age of the appraisal. All valuations are subsequently reviewed by management. The book value is determined by deducting the estimated selling costs from the valuation. Any charge-offs are recorded prior to the transfer to real estate owned. The fair value of these properties is reviewed based on changing market conditions and subsequent valuations are obtained at least annually. Real estate owned at December 31, 2009 is comprised of 72 properties with an aggregate appraised value of $28,001,000. The Bank expects real estate owned to increase during 2010 as non-performing loans are transferred to other real estate. During 2009, the Corporation recorded loss on the sale of real estate of $139,000 and write-downs in the value of real estate in the amount of $2,766,000 to address the decline in property values after the Bank took ownership of real estate.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Goodwill and other intangible assets were $0 at December 31, 2009, compared to $4,592,000 at December 31, 2008. The decrease was due to the impairment other intangible assets. The Bank had intangible assets for the estimated value of core deposit accounts and borrower relationships acquired in the acquisition of Fidelity Bank and the Bank of Washtenaw. Both of these acquisitions were consolidated into the Bank along with the goodwill and other intangible assets. The intangible values represent the present value of the net revenue streams attributable to these intangibles.
These intangible assets were analyzed and re-valued at September 30, 2009. The analysis indicated that these intangibles assets had no remaining value. The impairment to the core deposit intangibles was primarily due to the erosion of core deposits at a faster rate than anticipated. The impairment of the customer relationship intangible is primarily due to the migration of loans at a more rapid rate than expected and the impact of current economic conditions on the loan portfolio. The Bank recorded amortization expense for intangible assets of $595,000 and impairment expense for intangible assets of $3,997,000 during the year ended December 31, 2009. The components of amortization expense of intangible assets and impairment expense of intangible assets for the year ended December 31, 2009 were as follows (in thousands):

Accrued Interest Receivable. Accrued interest receivable at December 31, 2009 was $3,562,000 compared to $3,499,000 at December 31, 2008, an increase of $63,000 or 2%. The increase was primarily due to the decline in loans during 2009.
Other Assets. Other assets at December 31, 2009 were $12,660,000 compared to $21,483,000 at December 31, 2008, a decrease of $8,823,000 or 41%. The decrease was largely due to the recording of a valuation allowance on the Corporation’s deferred tax asset, partially offset by the recording of a federal income tax receivable.

Deposits. Total deposits at December 31, 2009 were $867,955,000 compared to $938,395,000 at December 31, 2008, a decrease of $70,440,000 or 8%.

The decrease in deposits was primarily due to the liquidation of the Deutche Bank Money Market program which was initiated by management and the decrease in wholesale deposits. These decreases were partially offset by the increase in time deposits. The Bank completed an annual customer appreciation promotion in April 2009. Management developed this campaign to increase liquidity and name awareness.
The Bank’s primary source of funds are retail deposits. The Bank is currently limited in the interest rates that may be offered on deposit account. The interest rates that the Bank offers on deposit products cannot exceed the interest rate caps that are published by the FDIC on a weekly basis. Additionally, the Bank is limited in the utilization of brokered deposits.
The Bank also utilizes public funds in the form of time deposits, $100,000 and over and brokered deposits as secondary sources of funds. In order to coordinate and manage these efforts, the Bank has also designated a public funds officer. Public funds at December 31, 2009 were $4.5 million compared to $44.2 million at December 31, 2008. There were 23 and 33 entities with public funds on deposit at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The average term of time deposits invested with the Bank by public units was 240 and 129 days at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Brokered deposits were $17.5 million with an average rate of 1.05% at December 31, 2009, compared to $91.7 million with an average rate of 3.48% at December 31, 2008.

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances. Federal Home Loan Bank advances at December 31, 2009 were $63,855,000 compared to $65,019,000 at December 31, 2008, an decrease of $1,164,000 or 2%. Management expects the amount of advances to remain relatively unchanged during 2010
In 1999, the Bank joined the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis. Membership in the Federal Home Loan Bank provides the Bank with a stable source of additional funding at a reasonable cost. Federal Home Loan Bank advances are collateralized with a blanket collateral agreement with the Federal Home Loan Bank and investment securities, available for sale. Please refer to Note I of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Other Borrowings. Other borrowings were $0 at December 31, 2009 compared to $2,461,000 at December 31, 2008, a decrease of $2,461,000. These borrowings were comprised of several repurchase agreements that are secured by securities held by the Bank. These agreements have been terminated.
Accrued Interest Payable. Accrued interest payable at December 31, 2009 was $1,046,000 compared to $1,695,000 at December 31, 2008, a decrease of $649,000 or 38%. The decrease was primarily due to the decline in interest rates paid on deposits.
Other Liabilities. Other liabilities were $1,685,000 at December 31, 2009 compared to $1,037,000 at December 31, 2008, an increase of $648,000 or 62%. The increase was primarily due to an increase in accrued expenses.
Subordinated Debentures. On December 19, 2002, the Corporation issued $10,000,000 of floating rate obligated mandatory redeemable securities through a special purpose entity as part of a pooled offering. The securities have a term of thirty years. The Corporation may redeem the securities after five years at face value. They are considered to be Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital purposes. Please refer to Note J of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Capital
Stockholders’ equity at December 31, 2009 was $41,945,000 compared to $103,311,000 as of December 31, 2008, a decrease of $61,366,000 or 59%. The decrease was primarily due to the net loss during 2009.
Applicable federal prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications, including well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized. At December 31, 2009, the Bank and Corporation were undercapitalized. At December 31, 2008, the Bank and Corporation exceeded all applicable regulatory capital requirements as described in Note O of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Undercapitalized institutions are subject to close monitoring by their federal bank regulator, restrictions on asset growth and expansion, and other significantly greater regulatory restrictions than apply to well-capitalized or adequately capitalized institutions.
The Bank submitted a Capital Restoration Plan (“CRP”) to the FDIC and OFIR on December 15, 2009, due to our undercapitalized status based on our September 30, 2009 regulatory report of condition and income. The CRP addresses, among other things, the steps management will take to cause our capital levels to return to the minimum level to be adequately capitalized.
Management is considering various sources of capital and is considering a variety of options to accomplish this requirement during 2010.
Market Risk Analysis
The Corporation’s primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk and, to a lesser degree, liquidity risk. All of our transactions are denominated in U. S. dollars with no specific foreign exchange exposure. The Corporation has no agricultural-related loan assets and therefore has no significant exposure to changes in commodity prices. Any impact that changes in foreign exchange rates or commodity prices would have on interest rates are assumed to be insignificant. Interest rate risk is the exposure of our financial condition to adverse movements in interest rates. We derive our income primarily from the excess of interest collected on our interest-earning assets over the interest paid on our interest-bearing liabilities. The rates of interest earned on the assets and owed on our liabilities of the Corporation generally are established contractually for a period of time. Since market interest rates change over time, we are exposed to lower profitability if we cannot adapt to interest rate changes. Accepting interest rate risk can be an important source of profitability and shareholder value; however, excessive levels of interest rate risk could pose a significant threat to our earnings and capital base. Accordingly, effective risk management that maintains interest rate risk at prudent levels is essential to our safety and soundness.

Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis. Evaluating the exposure to changes in interest rates includes assessing both the adequacy of the process used to control interest rate risk and the quantitative level of exposure. The Corporation’s interest rate risk management process seeks to ensure that appropriate policies, procedures, management information systems and internal controls are in place to maintain interest rate risk at prudent levels with consistency and continuity. In evaluating the quantitative level of interest rate risk, we assess the existing and potential future effects of changes in interest rates on our financial position, including capital adequacy, earnings, liquidity and asset quality.
The Corporation primarily uses two interest rate risk measurement techniques. The first, which is commonly referred to as GAP analysis, measures the difference between the dollars amounts of interest-sensitive assets and liabilities that will be repriced or mature during a given time period. The Corporation has sought to manage its exposure to changes in interest rates by matching more closely the effective maturities or repricing characteristics of the Corporation’s interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. The matching of the assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the extent to which the assets and liabilities are interest rate sensitive and by monitoring the expected effects of interest rate changes on net interest income. An asset or liability is interest rate sensitive within a specific time period if it will mature or reprice within that time period. If the Corporation’s assets mature or reprice more quickly or to a greater extent than its liabilities, the Corporation’s net portfolio value and net interest income would tend to increase during periods of rising interest rates but decrease during periods of falling interest rates. If the Corporation’s assets mature or reprice more slowly or to a lesser extent than its liabilities, its net portfolio value and net interest income would tend to decrease during periods of rising interest rates but increase during periods of falling interest rates.
Different types of assets and liabilities with the same or similar maturities may react differently to changes in overall market rates or conditions, and thus changes in interest rates may affect net interest income positively or negatively even if an institution were perfectly matched in each maturity category. Additionally, the gap analysis does not consider the many factors as banking interest rates move. While the interest rate sensitivity gap is a useful measurement and contributes toward effective asset and liability management, it is difficult to predict the effect of changing interest rates solely on that measure, without accounting for alterations in the maturity or repricing characteristics of the balance sheet that occur during changes in market interest rates. During periods of rising interest rates, the Corporation’s assets tend to have prepayments that are slower than expected and would tend to increase the negative gap position. Conversely, during a period of falling interest rates, the Corporation’s assets would tend to prepay faster than originally expected thus decreasing the negative gap position. In addition, some of the Corporation’s assets, such as adjustable rate mortgages, have caps on the amount by which their interest rates can change in any single period, and therefore may not reprice as quickly as liabilities in the same maturity category.

The second interest rate measurement used is commonly referred to as net income simulation analysis. We believe that this methodology provides a more accurate measurement of interest rate risk than GAP analysis. The simulation model assesses the directions and magnitude of variations in net interest income resulting from potential changes in market interest rates. This model would normally display the impact of identical movements in either direction. However, the potential downward movement in the prime interest rate is limited due to the current level of of that interest rate. The maximum movement of that interest rate would be 100 basis points. Key assumptions in the model include prepayment speeds on various loan and investment assets; cash flows and maturities of interest-sensitive assets and liabilities; the variability of interest rate sensitivity of assets and liabilities; and changes in market conditions impacting loan and deposit volume and pricing. These assumption are inherently uncertain, subject to fluctuation and revision in a dynamic environment; therefore, the model cannot precisely estimate net interest income or exactly predict the impact of higher or lower interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes, changes in market conditions and our strategies, among other factors.
We conducted an interest rate simulation as of December 31, 2009, that assumed a gradual change in market rates occurred over the following twelve months. The following table reflects the suggested impact on net interest income over the next twelve months (dollars, in thousands):

Liquidity. Liquidity refers to readily available funds to meet the needs of borrowers and depositors. Levels of liquidity are closely monitored in conjunction with loan funding requirements and deposit outflows. Adequate liquidity protects institutions from raising funds under duress at excessive expense and provides a necessary cushion for occasional unpredictable aberrations in demand. While adequate liquidity is imperative, excessive liquidity in lower yielding cash investments or other easily marketable assets reduces potential interest income. Thus, an appropriate balance must be maintained to protect the institution and, at the same time, prudently maximize income opportunities. Sources of liquidity from both assets and liabilities include federal funds sold, securities available for sale, loan repayments, core deposits, Federal Home Loan Bank advances and a federal funds purchase credit facility.
The Corporation’s primary source of liquidity is its deposit base, raised through its retail branch system along with its unpledged securities, available for sale and overnight deposits with other banks. The Bank also has other wholesale sources of funds including brokered deposits, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis and borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank.
Management evaluates the liquidity position of the Bank on a daily basis and makes appropriate decisions as to the utilizations of the Bank’s sources of funds and the deployment of excess cash. The Bank’s Deposit Pricing Committee is a sub-committee of the Bank’s Asset and Liability Committee and meets at least weekly. This Committee is comprised of the Chief Financial Officer, Controller, Head of Retail and Chief Deposit Officer. This Committee reviews the Bank’s available cash, available sources of funds, projected deposit maturity schedule and interest rates. This committee makes and enacts decisions regarding all aspects of the Bank’s deposits including the level of interest rates and was formed in order to react more quickly to the rapidly changing liquidity needs of the Bank. Regulatory interest rate restrictions are monitored weekly by the Chief Deposit Officer and any appropriate adjustments are implemented promptly.
Certain credit markets that the Corporation participated in previously and utilized as a primary source of funds became significantly disrupted and volatile during 2009 and are no longer relied upon by management. As a result, the Bank has increased its level of deposits and investment securities that can be pledged as collateral.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The Consolidated Financial Statements presented herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The primary impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of the Corporation’s operations. Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all the assets and liabilities of the Corporation are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on a financial institution’s performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction, or to the same extent, as the prices of goods and services.
