(a) Includes $36 million of performing home equity second liens at June 30, 2012, that are: subordinate to first liens that are 120 days or more past due; in foreclosure; or when the first mortgage delinquency timeframe is unknown. Such second liens are now being reported as nonperforming loans based upon regulatory guidance issued in January, 2012. This policy related to the classification of second lien home equity loans was implemented prospectively, and therefore prior periods were not presented.

(b) A loan is “restructured” (i.e., TDRs) when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and we grant a concession that we would not otherwise have considered to improve the collectability of the loan. Typical concessions include: reducing the interest rate, extending the maturity date, or reducing the principal balance.

(c) Included in individually impaired loans allocated a specific allowance.

(d) Included in allowance for individually evaluated impaired loans.
