Note 9.     FHLB Advances

The subsidiary banks are members of the FHLB of Des Moines or Chicago. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the subsidiary banks held $9,135,900 and $11,279,000, respectively, of FHLB stock, which is included in restricted investment securities on the consolidated balance sheet.

There were no FHLB advance prepayments or modifications during 2014.

During the second quarter of 2015, QCBT and CRBT prepaid a total of $75,500,000 of fixed rate FHLB advances with a weighted average interest rate of 4.36% and maturity dates ranging from May 2016 to June 2019. The prepayment fees associated with these advances totaled $5,692,185 and are included in losses on debt extinguishment in the statements of income. The prepayments were a part of the Company’s balance sheet restructuring, which is described in Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Additionally, during the fourth quarter of 2015, RBT prepaid a $3,000,000 fixed rate FHLB advance with an interest rate of 3.98% and a maturity date in May 2018. The prepayment fees associated with this advance totaled $209,416 and are included in losses on debt extinguishment in the statements of income. This transaction is part of the Company’s ongoing balance sheet restructuring strategy, which will continue to be evaluated in the future as a way to reduce reliance on wholesale funding. The Company continued this strategy in early 2016, as described in Note 25 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
