Allowance for Loan Losses. The Company's process for evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses has three basic elements: First, the identification of problem loans when they occur; second, the establishment of appropriate allowance for loan losses once specific problem loans are identified; and third, a methodology for establishing general loan loss allowances. The identification of problem loans is achieved mainly through review of specific major loans based on delinquency criteria, size of loan and location and value of collateral property. Specific loss reserves are established for identified problem loans based on reviews of current operating financial information and fair value appraisals. A range of loss allowances is estimated based upon consideration of past experience of originated loans by loan type, year of origination, location of collateral property and loan-to-value ratios. Based upon this process, consideration of the current economic environment and other factors, management determines what it considers to be an appropriate allowance for loan losses. Although the Company's management believes it has a sound basis for this estimation, actual write-offs incurred in the future are highly dependent upon future events, including the economy of the area in which the Company lends. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank's allowance for loan losses.
