NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note 1.  Organization    
CapitalSource Inc., a Delaware corporation, is a commercial lender that provides financial products to small and middle market businesses nationwide and provides depository products and services to consumers in southern and central California, primarily through our wholly owned subsidiary, CapitalSource Bank (the "Bank"). References to we, us, the Company or CapitalSource refer to CapitalSource Inc. together with its subsidiaries. References to CapitalSource Bank or the Bank include its subsidiaries, and references to the Parent Company refer to CapitalSource Inc. and its subsidiaries other than the Bank.
For the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, we operated as two reportable segments: the Bank and Other Commercial Finance. The Bank segment comprises our commercial lending and banking business activities, and our Other Commercial Finance segment comprises our loan portfolio and other business activities in the Parent Company. For additional information, see Note 15, Segment Data.

Note 2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Interim Consolidated Financial Statements Basis of Presentation
Our interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual consolidated financial statements are omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and eliminations, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements for the interim periods, have been included. The current period's results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that ultimately may be achieved for the year. The interim consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 25, 2013 (“Form 10-K”).
The accompanying financial statements reflect our consolidated accounts and those of other entities in which we have a controlling financial interest including our majority-owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) where we determined that we are the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation, including the reclassification of the presentation of our consolidated statements of operations to include the captions of non-interest income and non-interest expense as compared to operating expenses and other income (expense). Accordingly, the reclassifications have been appropriately reflected throughout our consolidated financial statements.
Except as discussed below, our accounting policies are described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, included in our Form 10-K.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2013, the FASB amended its guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income to improve the transparency of reporting amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income. For significant items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income in their entirety in the same reporting period, entities are required to present the effects on the line items of net income. For items that are not reclassified to net income in their entirety in the same reporting period, entities are required to cross-reference to other disclosures currently required. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2012. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2013 and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Note 3.  Loans and Credit Quality
As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, our outstanding loan balance was $6.2 billion. These amounts include loans held for sale and loans held for investment. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, interest and fee receivables on these loans totaled $24.4 million and $26.0 million, respectively.
Loans held for sale are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value. We determine when to sell a loan on a loan-by-loan basis and consider several factors, including the credit quality of the loan, any financing secured by the loan and any requirements related to the release of liens, the potential sale price relative to our loan valuation, our liquidity needs, and the resources necessary to ensure an adequate recovery if we continued to hold the loan. When our analysis indicates that the proper strategy is to sell a loan, we initiate the sale process and designate the loan as held for sale.

8

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Loans held for investment are recorded at the principal amount outstanding, net of deferred loan costs or fees and any discounts received or premiums paid on purchased loans. We maintain an allowance for loan and lease losses for loans held for investment, which is calculated based on management's estimate of incurred loan and lease losses inherent in our loan and lease portfolio as of the balance sheet date. This methodology is used consistently to develop our allowance for loan and lease losses for all loans and leases in our loan portfolio.
During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, we transferred loans with a carrying value of $87.1 million and $10.6 million, respectively, which included $26.4 million and $10.2 million of impaired loans, respectively, from held for investment to held for sale. These transfers were based on our decision to sell these loans as part of our overall portfolio management strategies. We did not incur any losses due to lower of cost or fair value adjustments at the time of transfer during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012. However, we charged off $11.0 million and $1.3 million at the time of transfer due to credit losses inherent in the transferred loans during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. We did not reclassify any loans from held for sale to held for investment during the three months ended March 31, 2013. We reclassified $5.0 million of loans from held for sale to held for investment during the three months ended March 31, 2012.
During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, we recognized net gains on the sale of loans of $2.6 million and $1.1 million, respectively.
As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, loans held for sale with an outstanding balance of $8.3 million and $2.5 million, respectively, were classified as non-accrual loans. We did not record any fair value write-downs on non-accrual loans held for sale during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.
During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, we purchased loans held for investment with an outstanding principal balance at the time of purchase of $71.3 million and $33.5 million, respectively.
As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Bank pledged loans held for investment with an unpaid principal balance of $836.2 million and $724.1 million, respectively, to the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (“FHLB SF”) as collateral for its financing facility.
As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the outstanding unpaid principal balance of loans, by type of loan, was as follows:

As of March 31, 2013, includes deferred loan fees and discounts of $33.5 million, $13.1 million and $0.8 million for commercial and industrial, real estate and real estate - construction loans, respectively. As of December 31, 2012, includes deferred loan fees and discounts of $38.4 million, $14.9 million and $0.3 million for commercial and industrial, real estate and real estate - construction loans, respectively.
Non-performing loans include all loans on non-accrual status and accruing loans which are contractually past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest payments. Our remediation efforts on these loans are based upon the characteristics of each specific situation and include, among other things, one of or a combination of the following:
request that the equity owners of the borrower invest additional capital;
require the borrower to provide us with additional collateral;
request additional guaranties or letters of credit;
request the borrower to improve cash flow by taking actions such as selling non-strategic assets or reducing operating expenses;
modify the terms of the loan, including the deferral of principal or interest payments, where we will appropriately classify the modification as a TDR;
initiate foreclosure proceedings on the collateral; or
sell the loan in certain cases where there is an interested third-party buyer.

Credit Quality
Credit risk within our loan portfolio is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in a borrower's or counterparty's ability to meet its financial obligations under agreed-upon terms. The degree of credit risk will vary based on many factors, the credit characteristics of the borrower, the contractual terms of the agreement and the availability and quality of collateral. We continuously monitor a borrower's ability to perform under its obligations. Additionally, we manage the size and risk profile of our loan portfolio by syndicating loan exposure to other lenders and selling loans.
Under our credit risk management process, each loan is assigned an internal risk rating that is based on defined credit review standards. While rating criteria vary by product, each loan rating focuses on: the borrower's financial performance and financial standing, the borrower's ability to repay the loan, and the adequacy of the collateral securing the loan. Subsequent to loan origination, risk ratings are monitored and reassessed on an ongoing basis. If necessary, risk ratings are adjusted to reflect changes in the borrower's financial condition, cash flow or financial position. We use risk rating aggregations to measure credit risk within the loan portfolio. In addition to risk ratings, we consider the market trend of collateral values and loan concentrations by borrower industries and real estate property types (where applicable).
We believe that the likelihood of not being paid according to the contractual terms of a loan is, in large part, dependent upon the assessed level of risk associated with the loan, and we believe that our internal risk rating process provides a view as to the relative risk of each loan. This risk rating scale is based on a credit classification of assets as prescribed by government regulations and industry standards and is separated into the following groups:
Pass - Loans with standard, acceptable levels of credit risk;
Special mention - Loans that have potential weaknesses that deserve close attention, and which, if left uncorrected, may result in a loss or deterioration of our credit position;
Substandard - Loans that are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected; and
Doubtful - Loans that have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as Substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full improbable based on currently existing facts, conditions, and values.

Non-Accrual and Past Due Loans
We place a loan on non-accrual status when there is substantial doubt about the borrower's ability to service its debt and other obligations or if the loan is 90 or more days past due and is not well-secured and in the process of collection. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, accrued and unpaid interest is reversed and the recognition of interest and fee income on that loan is discontinued until factors no longer indicate collection is doubtful and the loan has been brought current. Payments received on non-accrual loans are generally first applied to principal. A loan may be returned to accrual status when its interest or principal is current, repayment of the remaining contractual principal and interest is expected or when the loan otherwise becomes well-secured and is in the process of collection. Cash payments received from the borrower and applied to the principal balance of the loan while the loan was on non-accrual status are not reversed if a loan is returned to accrual status.
If our non-accrual loans had performed in accordance with their original terms, interest income on the outstanding legal balance of these loans would have been $5.5 million and $9.7 million higher for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Impaired Loans
We consider a loan to be impaired when, based on current information, we determine that it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due in accordance with the contractual terms of the original loan agreement. In this regard, impaired loans include loans for which we expect to encounter a significant delay in the collection of and/or a shortfall in the amount of contractual payments due to us.
Assessing the likelihood that a loan will not be paid according to its contractual terms involves the consideration of all relevant facts and circumstances and requires a significant amount of judgment. For such purposes, factors that are considered include:
the current performance of the borrower;
the current economic environment and financial capacity of the borrower to preclude a default;
the willingness of the borrower to provide the support necessary to preclude a default (including the potential for successful resolution of a potential problem through modification of terms); and
the borrower's equity position in, and the value of, the underlying collateral, if applicable, based on our best estimate of the fair value of the collateral.
In assessing the adequacy of available evidence, we consider whether the receipt of payments is dependent on the fiscal health of the borrower or the sale, refinancing or foreclosure of the loan.
We continue to recognize interest income on loans that have been identified as impaired but that have not been placed on non-accrual status.

We did not recognize any cash basis interest income on impaired loans during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
Our allowance for loan and lease losses represents management's estimate of incurred losses inherent in our loan and lease portfolio as of the balance sheet date. The estimation of the allowance for losses is based on a variety of factors, including past loss experience, the current credit profile and financial position of our borrowers, adverse situations that have occurred that may affect the borrowers' ability to repay, the estimated value of underlying collateral and general economic conditions. Provisions for losses are recognized when available information indicates that it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.
We perform quarterly detailed reviews of our loan portfolio to identify credit risks and to assess the overall collectability of the portfolio. The allowance on certain pools of loans with similar characteristics is estimated using reserve factors derived from historical loss rates or published industry data if our lending history for a particular loan type is limited.
Each loan is assigned an internal risk rating that is based on defined credit review standards. While rating criteria vary by product, each loan rating focuses on the borrower's financial performance and financial standing, the borrower's ability to repay the loan, and the adequacy of the collateral securing the loan. Subsequent to loan origination, risk ratings are monitored and reassessed on an ongoing basis. If necessary, risk ratings are adjusted to reflect changes in the borrower's financial condition, cash flow or financial position. We use risk rating aggregations to measure credit risk within the loan portfolio. In addition, we consider the market trend of collateral values and loan concentrations by borrower industries and real estate property types (where applicable).
These risk ratings, analysis of historical loss experience (updated quarterly), current economic conditions, industry performance trends, and any other pertinent information, including individual valuations on impaired loans are all considered when estimating the allowance for losses.
If the recorded investment in an impaired loan exceeds the present value of payments expected to be received, the fair value of the collateral and/or the loan's observable market price, a specific allowance is established as a component of the allowance for losses.
When available information confirms that specific loans or portions thereof are uncollectible, these amounts are charged off against the allowance for losses. To the extent we later collect from the original borrower amounts previously charged off, we will recognize a recovery.

14

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

We also consider whether losses may have been incurred in connection with unfunded commitments to lend. In making this assessment, we exclude from consideration those commitments for which funding is subject to our approval based on the adequacy of underlying collateral that is required to be presented by a borrower or other terms and conditions.

Loans individually evaluated for impairment are net of charge offs of $143.6 million and $162.5 million at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
Troubled Debt Restructurings
The types of concessions that are assessed to determine if modifications to our loans should be classified as troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) include, but are not limited to, interest rate and/or fee reductions, maturity extensions, payment deferrals, forgiveness of loan principal, interest, and/or fees, or multiple concessions comprised of a combination of some or all of these items. We also classify discounted loan payoffs and loan foreclosures as TDRs.
During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the aggregate carrying value of loans involved in TDRs were $12.2 million and $71.0 million, respectively, as of their respective restructuring dates. Aggregate carrying value includes principal, deferred fees and accrued interest. Loans involved in TDRs are classified as impaired upon closing on the TDR. Generally, a loan that has been involved in a TDR is no longer classified as impaired one year subsequent to the restructuring, assuming the loan performs under the restructured terms and the restructured terms are commensurate with current market terms. In most cases, the restructured terms of loans involved in TDRs are not commensurate with current market terms.
As loans involved in TDRs are deemed to be impaired, such impaired loans, including those that subsequently experienced defaults, are individually evaluated in accordance with our allowance for loan and lease losses methodology under the same guidelines as non-TDR loans that are classified as impaired. Our evaluation of whether collection of interest and principal is

15

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

reasonably assured is based on the facts and circumstances of each individual borrower and our assessment of the borrower's ability and intent to repay in accordance with the revised loan terms. We generally consider such factors as historical operating performance and payment history of the borrower, indications of support by sponsors and other interest holders, the terms of the TDR, the value of any collateral securing the loan and projections of future performance of the borrower as part of this evaluation.
The accrual status for loans involved in a TDR is assessed as part of the evaluation mentioned above. For a loan that accrues interest immediately after that loan is restructured in a TDR, we generally do not charge off a portion of the loan as part of the restructuring. If a portion of a loan has been charged off, we will not accrue interest on the remaining portion of the loan if the charged off portion is still contractually due from the borrower. However, if the charged off portion of the loan is legally forgiven through concessions to the borrower, then the restructured loan may be placed on accrual status if the remaining contractual amounts due on the loan are reasonably assured of collection. In addition, for certain TDRs, especially those involving a commercial real estate loan, we may split the loan into an A note and a B note, placing the performing A note on accrual status and charging off the B note. For loans involved in a TDR that have been classified as non-accrual, the borrower is required to demonstrate sustained payment performance for a minimum of six months to return to accrual status.
The aggregate carrying values of loans that had been restructured in TDRs as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 were as follows:

We have experienced losses incurred on some TDRs subsequent to their initial restructuring. These losses include both additional specific reserves and charge offs on the restructured loans. The majority of such losses has been incurred on our commercial loans and is primarily due to the borrowers' failure to consistently meet their financial forecasts that formed the bases for our restructured loans. Examples of circumstances that resulted in the borrowers not being able to meet their forecasts included acquisitions of other businesses that did not have the expected positive impact on financial results, significant delays in launching

Of the additional losses recognized on commercial loan TDRs since their initial restructuring for the three months ended March 31, 2013, 79.6% related to loans that had additional modifications subsequent to their initial TDRs, and all related to loans that were on non-accrual status, as of March 31, 2013. We recognized approximately $146 thousand of interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2013 on the commercial loans that experienced losses during these periods.
Of the additional losses recognized on commercial loan TDRs since their initial restructuring for the three months ended March 31, 2012, almost all related to loans that had additional modifications subsequent to their initial TDRs, and all related to loans that were on non-accrual status.  We recognized approximately $83 thousand of interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 on the commercial loans that experienced losses during this period.
Real Estate Owned (“REO”)
When we foreclose on a real estate asset that collateralizes a loan or other assets, we record the acquired assets at their estimated fair value less costs to sell at the time of foreclosure if the related asset is classified as held for sale. Upon foreclosure, we evaluate the asset's fair value as compared to the asset's carrying amount and record a charge off when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds fair value less costs to sell. For REO determined to be held for sale, subsequent valuation adjustments are recorded as a valuation allowance, which is recorded as a component of net expense of real estate owned and other foreclosed assets. REO that does not meet the criteria of held for sale is classified as held for use and initially recorded at its fair value. Except for land acquired, the real estate asset is subsequently depreciated over its estimated useful life. Fair value adjustments on REO held for use are recorded only if the carrying amount of an asset is not recoverable and exceeds its estimated fair value less cost to sell.
Activity related to REO held for sale for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was as follows:

Other Foreclosed Assets
When we foreclose on a borrower whose underlying collateral consists of loans or other assets, we record the acquired assets at the estimated fair value less costs to sell at the time of foreclosure. At the time of foreclosure, we record charge offs when the carrying amount of the original loan exceeds the estimated fair value of the acquired assets. We may also write down or record allowances on the acquired loans or assets subsequent to foreclosure if such loans or assets experience additional deterioration. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we had $3.2 million and $4.8 million, respectively, of assets acquired through foreclosure with no valuation allowance which were recorded in other assets. The reserve release and provision for losses and gains on sales of other foreclosed assets, which were recorded as a component of expense of real estate owned and other foreclosed assets, net for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 were as follows:

Investment securities in unrealized loss positions are analyzed individually as part of our ongoing assessment of OTTI. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we do not believe that any unrealized losses in our investment securities portfolio represent an OTTI. The unrealized losses are attributable to fluctuations in the market prices of the securities due to market conditions and interest rate levels. Agency securities have the highest debt rating and are backed by government-sponsored entities. As of March 31, 2013, each of the agency, non-agency, and commercial MBS securities with unrealized losses had investment grade ratings and were well supported. Based on our analysis of each security in an unrealized loss position, we have both the intent and ability to hold these securities until we can expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the impaired securities.

Note 6. Variable Interest Entities
Troubled Debt Restructurings
Certain of our loan modifications qualify as events that require reconsideration of our borrowers as variable interest entities. Through reconsideration, we determined that certain of our borrowers involved in TDRs did not hold sufficient equity at risk to finance their activities without subordinated financial support. As a result, we concluded that these borrowers were VIEs. We also determined that we should not consolidate these borrowers because we do not have a controlling financial interest. The equity investors of these borrowers have the power to direct the activities that will have the most significant impact on the economics of these borrowers. These equity investors' interests also provide them with rights to receive benefits in the borrowers that could be significant. As a result, we have determined that the equity investors continue to have a controlling financial interest in the borrowers subsequent to the restructuring.
Our interests in borrowers qualifying as variable interest entities were $106.5 million and $115.4 million as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, and are included in loans held for investment. For certain of these borrowers, we may have obligations to fund additional amounts through either unfunded commitments or letters of credit issued to or on behalf of these borrowers. Consequently, our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with these entities was $139.8 million and $151.9 million as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
Term Debt Securitizations
In conjunction with our commercial term debt securitizations, we established and contributed loans to separate single purpose entities (collectively, referred to as the “Issuers”). The Issuers are structured to be legally isolated, bankruptcy remote entities. The Issuers issued notes and certificates that are collateralized by their underlying assets, which primarily comprise loans contributed to the securitizations. We service the underlying loans contributed to the Issuers and earn periodic servicing fees paid from the cash flows of the underlying loans. The Issuers have all of the legal obligations to repay the outstanding notes and certificates and we have no legal obligation to contribute additional assets to the Issuers. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the total outstanding balances of these commercial term debt securitizations were $258.5 million and $398.9 million, respectively. These amounts include $184.4 million and $221.7 million of notes and certificates that we held as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
We have determined that the Issuers are variable interest entities, subject to applicable consolidation guidance and have concluded that the entities were designed to pass along risks related to the credit performance of the underlying loan portfolio. Except as set forth below, as a result of our power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the credit performance of the underlying loan portfolio and our economic interests in the Issuers, we have concluded that we are the primary beneficiary of each of the Issuers. Consequently, except as set forth below, we report the assets and liabilities of the Issuers in our consolidated financial statements, including the underlying loans and the issued notes and certificates held by third parties. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the carrying amounts of the consolidated liabilities related to the Issuers were $74.2 million and $177.4 million, respectively. These amounts include term debt and represent obligations for which there is only legal recourse to the Issuers. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the carrying amounts of the consolidated assets related to the Issuers were $218.8 million and $345.4 million, respectively. These amounts include loans held for investment, net and relate to assets that can only be used to settle obligations of the Issuers.
During 2010, we delegated certain of our collateral management and special servicing rights in the 2006-A term debt securitization trust (the "2006-A Trust") and sold our equity interest and certain notes issued by the 2006-A Trust. As a result of this transaction, we determined that we no longer had the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the 2006-A Trust. Therefore, we concluded that we were no longer the primary beneficiary and deconsolidated the 2006-A Trust.
As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair value of our remaining interests in the 2006-A Trust that we had repurchased in the market subsequent to the initial securitization and held as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was $25.3

million and $26.3 million, respectively, and was classified as investment securities, available-for-sale. We have no additional funding commitments or other obligations related to these interests. Except for a guarantee provided to a swap counterparty of the 2006-A Trust, we have not provided any additional financial support to the 2006-A Trust since the deconsolidation. This swap exposure had a fair value to the counterparty of $12.5 million and $13.5 million as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The interests in the Trust and the swap guarantee comprise our maximum exposure to loss related to the 2006-A Trust. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we recorded gross unrealized losses of $0.2 million included as a component of other comprehensive income, on the securities that we still hold in the 2006-A Trust as of March 31, 2013.

Term Debt
In conjunction with each of our commercial term debt securitizations, we established and contributed commercial loans to separate Issuers. The Issuers are structured to be legally isolated, bankruptcy remote entities. The Issuers issued notes and certificates that are collateralized by the underlying assets of the Issuers, primarily comprising contributed loans.
We continue to service the underlying commercial loans contributed to the Issuers and earn periodic servicing fees paid from the cash flows of the underlying commercial loans. We have no legal obligation to repay the outstanding notes or certificates or contribute additional assets to the entity.
In January 2013, we called the 2007-1 term debt securitization and repaid the outstanding third-party debt of $47.1 million and recognized no gain or loss on the extinguishment of debt.

All of our term debt securitizations outstanding as of March 31, 2013 incur interest based on one-month LIBOR, which was 0.20% and 0.21% as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

We repurchased certain bonds from third party investors at fair market value. The total of $1.2 million of repurchased debt reflects two classes of the 2006-2 securitization as of March 31, 2013. The tables reflect outstanding debt to third party investors, and therefore, eliminate the portions of debt owned by us.

$20.0 million of these securities were originally offered for sale. The remaining $36.3 million of the securities are retained by us.
Convertible Debt
We have issued convertible debentures as part of our financing activities. Our 7.25% Senior Convertible Debentures due 2037 (originally issued in July 2007) were repurchased in full during 2012 and extinguished leaving no remaining convertible debentures.

Subordinated Debt
We have issued subordinated debt to statutory trusts (“TP Trusts”) that are formed for the purpose of issuing preferred securities to outside investors, which we refer to as Trust Preferred Securities (“TPS”). We generally retained 100% of the common securities issued by the TP Trusts, representing 3% of their total capitalization. The terms of the subordinated debt issued to the TP Trusts and the TPS issued by the TP Trusts are substantially identical.

25



The TP Trusts are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of CapitalSource. However, we have not consolidated the TP Trusts for financial statement purposes. We account for our investments in the TP Trusts under the equity method of accounting pursuant to relevant GAAP requirements.
In March 2012, we purchased an aggregate of $26.1 million of preferred securities from our TP Trusts 2005-1 and 2006-4 at a discount from liquidation value. As a result of this purchase, the related subordinated debt of $26.1 million was exchanged and cancelled in the second quarter of 2012.

Note 9. Income Taxes
We provide for income taxes as a “C” corporation on income earned from operations. We are subject to federal, foreign, state and local taxation in various jurisdictions.
In 2009, we established a valuation allowance against a substantial portion of our net deferred tax assets where we determined that there was significant negative evidence with respect to our ability to realize such assets. During 2012, we reversed a significant portion of the valuation allowance, and such reversal was recorded as a benefit in our income tax expenses. The deferred tax asset was evaluated based on our evaluation of the available positive and negative evidence, including the associated character and jurisdiction of the deferred tax asset along with our ability to realize the deferred tax asset. A valuation allowance remains in effect with respect to deferred tax assets where we believe sufficient evidence does not exist at this time to support a reduction in the allowance. It is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets subject to a valuation allowance will not be realized primarily due to their character and/or the expiration of the carryforward periods. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the valuation allowance was $128.1 million and $128.6 million, respectively.
Consolidated income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was $21.6 million and $25.7 million, respectively. The tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was primarily the result of the tax expense on the pre-tax book income. The tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was primarily the result of the additional valuation allowance needed to fully offset the Bank's net deferred tax assets.
The effective income tax rate on our consolidated net income was 42.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2013, and 50.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2012, respectively.
We file income tax returns with the United States and various state, local and foreign jurisdictions and generally remain subject to examinations by these tax jurisdictions for tax years 2006 through 2011. We are currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service for the tax years 2006 through 2008, and by certain state jurisdictions for the tax years 2006 to 2010.

Note 11. Bank Regulatory Capital
CapitalSource Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements established by federal and state regulatory agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in regulatory agencies initiating certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of its assets and liabilities as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank's capital amounts and other requirements are also subject to qualitative judgments by its regulators about risk weightings and other factors.
Under prompt corrective action regulations, a “well-capitalized” bank must have a total risk-based capital ratio of 10%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6%, and a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 5%. Under its approval order from the FDIC, the Bank must be “well-capitalized” and at all times have a minimum total risk-based capital ratio of 15%, a minimum Tier-1 risk-based capital ratio of 6% and a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 5%. The Bank's ratios and the minimum requirements as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 were as follows:

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies
We provide letters of credit in conjunction with several of our lending arrangements and property lease obligations. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we had issued $39.7 million and $54.2 million, respectively, in letters of credit which expire at various dates over the next six years. If a borrower defaults on its commitments subject to any letter of credit issued under these arrangements, we would be required to meet the borrower's financial obligation but would seek repayment of that financial obligation from the borrower. In some cases, borrowers have posted cash and investment securities as collateral under these arrangements.
As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we had committed lending arrangements to our borrowers of approximately $7.4 billion of which approximately $0.9 billion and $1.0 billion were unfunded, respectively. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Bank had total unfunded commitments of $856.4 million and $922.4 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Parent Company had total unfunded commitments of $59.1 million and $88.5 million, respectively. Our failure to satisfy our full contractual funding commitment to one or more of our borrower's could create a breach of contract and lender liability for us and damage our reputation in the marketplace, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
From time to time we are party to legal proceedings. We do not believe that any currently pending or threatened proceeding, if determined adversely to us, would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations, including our cash flows.

Note 13.  Derivative Instruments
We are exposed to certain risks related to our ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed through the use of derivative instruments are interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk. We do not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, none of our derivatives were designated as hedging instruments pursuant to GAAP.
We have entered into basis swaps to eliminate risk between our LIBOR-based term debt securitizations and the prime-based loans pledged as collateral for that debt. These basis swaps modify our exposure to interest rate risk by converting our prime rate loans to a one-month LIBOR rate. The objective of this swap activity is to protect us from risk that interest collected under the prime rate loans will not be sufficient to service the interest due under the one-month LIBOR-based term debt.
We have entered into forward exchange contracts to hedge foreign currency denominated loans we originate against foreign currency fluctuations. The objective is to manage the uncertainty of future foreign exchange rate fluctuations. These forward exchange contracts provide for a fixed exchange rate which has the effect of reducing or eliminating changes to anticipated cash flows to be received from foreign currency-denominated loan transactions as the result of changes to exchange rates.
Derivative instruments expose us to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to such agreements. This risk exposure consists primarily of the termination value of agreements where we are in a favorable position. We manage the credit risk associated with various derivative agreements through counterparty credit review and monitoring procedures. We obtain collateral from certain counterparties and monitor all exposure and collateral requirements daily. We continually monitor the fair value of collateral received from counterparties and may request additional collateral from counterparties or return collateral pledged as deemed appropriate. Our agreements generally include master netting agreements whereby we are entitled to settle our individual derivative positions with the same counterparty on a net basis upon the occurrence of certain events. As of March 31, 2013, the gross positive fair value of derivative financial instruments was $392 thousand; our master netting arrangements reduced the exposure to this positive fair value by $38 thousand.
We report our derivatives at fair value on a gross basis irrespective of our master netting arrangements. We held no collateral against our derivatives in asset positions as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. For derivatives that were in a liability position, we had posted collateral of $1.5 million as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. As of March 31, 2013, we also posted collateral of $10.0 million related to counterparty requirements for foreign exchange contracts at the Bank.
During the three months ended March 31, 2013, no interest rate swaps were terminated.

Note 14. Fair Value Measurements
We use fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain of our assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Investment securities, available-for-sale, warrants and derivatives are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. In addition, we may be required, in specific circumstances, to measure certain of our assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, including investment securities, held-to-maturity, loans held for sale, loans held for investment, REO and certain other investments.
Fair value is based on quoted market prices or by using market based inputs where available. Given the nature of some of our assets and liabilities, clearly determinable market based valuation inputs are often not available; therefore, these assets and liabilities are valued using internal estimates. As subjectivity exists with respect to many of our valuation estimates used, the fair values we have disclosed may not equal prices that we may ultimately realize if the assets are sold or the liabilities settled with third parties.
Below is a description of the valuation methods for our assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. While we believe the valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain assets and liabilities could result in a different estimate of fair value at the measurement date.
Assets and Liabilities
Cash
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are recorded at historical cost. The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value as these instruments have short-term maturities and interest rates that approximate market.
Investment Securities, Available-for-Sale
Investment securities, available-for-sale, consist of Agency MBS, Non-agency MBS, asset-backed securities, and collateralized loan obligations that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis and classified as available-for-sale securities. Fair value adjustments on these investments are generally recorded through other comprehensive income. However, if impairment on an investment, available-for-sale is deemed to be other-than-temporary, all or a portion of the fair value adjustment may be reported in earnings. The securities are valued using quoted prices from external market participants, including pricing services. If quoted prices are not available, the fair value is determined using quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or independent pricing models, which utilize observable market data such as benchmark yields, reported trades and issuer spreads. These securities are primarily classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. No available for sale securities were transferred from or into Level 3 during the year ending March 31, 2013.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Investment Securities, Held-to-Maturity
Investment securities, held-to-maturity consist of commercial mortgage-backed-securities and collateralized loan obligations. These securities are generally recorded at amortized cost, but are recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis to the extent we record an OTTI on the securities. Fair value measurements are determined using quoted prices from external market participants, including pricing services. If quoted prices are not available, the fair value is determined using quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or independent pricing models, which utilize observable market data such as benchmark yields, reported trades and issuer spreads.
Loans Held for Sale
Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, with fair value adjustments recorded on a nonrecurring basis. The fair value is determined using actual market transactions when available. In situations when market transactions are not available, we use the income approach through internally developed valuation models to estimate the fair value. This requires the use of significant judgment surrounding discount rates and the timing and amounts of future cash flows. Key inputs to these valuations also include costs of completion and unit settlement prices for the underlying collateral of the loans. Fair values determined through actual market transactions are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, while fair values determined through internally developed valuation models are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Loans Held for Investment
Loans held for investment are recorded at outstanding principal, net of any deferred fees and unamortized purchase discounts or premiums and net of an allowance for loan and lease losses. We may record fair value adjustments on a nonrecurring basis when we have determined that it is necessary to record a specific reserve against a loan and we measure such specific reserve using the fair value of the loan's collateral. To determine the fair value of the collateral, we may employ different approaches depending on the type of collateral.
In cases where our collateral is a fixed or other tangible asset, our determination of the appropriate method to use to measure fair value depends on several factors including the type of collateral that we are evaluating, the age of the most recent appraisal performed on the collateral, and the time required to obtain an updated appraisal. Typically, we obtain an updated third-party appraisal from an external valuation specialist or use prior or pending transactions to estimate fair value. We may or may not adjust these amounts based on our own internally developed judgments and estimates. These adjustments typically include discounts for lack of marketability and foreign property discounts. We may also utilize industry valuation benchmarks such as revenue multiples for operating commercial properties. Significant decreases to any of these inputs would result in decreases in the fair value measurements. For certain loans collateralized by residential real estate, we utilize discounted cash flow techniques to determine the fair value of the underlying collateral. Significant unobservable inputs used in these fair value measurements include recovery rates and marketability discounts. Significant decreases in recovery rates or significant increases in marketability discounts would result in significant decreases in the fair value measurements.
An impaired loan is considered collateral dependent if repayment of the loan is expected to be provided solely by the underlying collateral and there are no other available and reliable sources of repayment.
For impaired collateral dependent commercial real estate loans, we typically obtain an updated appraisal as of the date the loan is deemed impaired to measure the amount of impairment. In situations where we are unable to obtain a timely updated appraisal, we perform internal valuations which utilize assumptions and calculations similar to those customarily utilized by third party appraisers and consider relevant property specific facts and circumstances. In certain instances, our internal assessment of value may be based on adjustments to outdated appraisals by analyzing the changes in local market conditions and asset performance since the appraisals were performed. The outdated appraisal values may be discounted by percentages that are determined by analyzing changes in local market conditions since the dates of the appraisals as well as by consulting databases, comparable market sale prices, brokers' opinions of value and other relevant data. We do not make adjustments that increase the values indicated by outdated appraisals by using higher recent sale comparisons.
Impaired collateral dependent commercial real estate loans for which ultimate collection depends solely on the sale of the collateral are charged off to the estimated fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell. For certain of these loans, we charged off to an amount different than the value indicated by the most recent appraisal; this was primarily the result of the appraisal being outdated. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we charged off an additional $32.8 million, net, and $32.2 million, net, respectively, in loan balances compared with amounts that would have been charged off based on the appraised values of the collateral.
Our policy on updating appraisals related to these originated impaired collateral dependent commercial real estate loans generally is to obtain current appraisals subsequent to the impairment date if there are significant changes to the underlying assumptions from the most recent appraisal. Some factors that could cause significant changes include the passage of more than twelve months since the time of the last appraisal; the volatility of the local market; the availability of financing; the inventory of competing properties; new improvements to, or lack of maintenance of, the subject property or competing surrounding properties;

31

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

a change in zoning; environmental contamination; or failure of the project to meet material assumptions of the original appraisal. This policy for updating appraisals does not vary by commercial real estate loan type. We generally consider appraisals to be current if they are dated within the past twelve months. However, we may obtain an updated appraisal on a more frequent basis if in our determination there are significant changes to the underlying assumptions from the most recent appraisal.
As of March 31, 2013, $41.8 million of our collateral dependent loans had an appraisal older than twelve months. The fair value of the collateral for these loans was determined through inputs outside of appraisals, including actual and comparable sales transactions, broker price opinions and other relevant data.
We continue to monitor collateral values on partially charged-off impaired collateral dependent commercial real estate loans and may record additional charge offs upon receiving updated appraisals. We do not return such partially charged-off loans to performing status, except in limited circumstances when such loans have been formally restructured and have met key performance criteria including compliance with restructured payment terms. We do not return such partially charged-off loans to performing status based solely on the results of appraisals.
In cases where our collateral is not a fixed or tangible asset, we typically use industry valuation benchmarks such as Earnings Before Interest Taxes Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") multiples to determine the value of the asset or the underlying enterprise. Decreases in these benchmarks would result in significant decreases in the fair value measurements.
When fair value adjustments are recorded on loans held for investment, we typically classify them in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
We determine the fair value estimates of loans held for investment for fair value disclosures primarily using external valuation specialists. These valuation specialists group loans based on risk rating and collateral type, and the fair value is estimated utilizing discounted cash flow techniques. The valuations take into account current market rates of return, contractual interest rates, maturities and assumptions regarding expected future cash flows. Within each respective loan grouping, current market rates of return are determined based on quoted prices for similar instruments that are actively traded, adjusted as necessary to reflect the illiquidity of the instrument. This approach requires the use of significant judgment surrounding current market rates of return, liquidity adjustments and the timing and amounts of future cash flows.
Other Investments
Other investments accounted for under the cost or equity methods of accounting are carried at fair value on a nonrecurring basis to the extent that they are determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired during the period. As there is rarely an observable price or market for such investments, we determine fair value using internally developed models. Our models utilize industry valuation benchmarks, such as multiples of net revenue or EBITDA, to determine a value for the underlying enterprise. Significant decreases to these valuation benchmarks would result in significant decreases in the fair value measurements. We reduce this value by the value of debt outstanding to arrive at an estimated equity value of the enterprise. When an external event such as a purchase transaction, public offering or subsequent equity sale occurs, the pricing indicated by the external event will be used to corroborate our private equity valuation. Fair value measurements related to these investments are typically classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
FHLB SF Stock
Our investment in FHLB SF stock is recorded at historical cost. FHLB SF stock does not have a readily determinable fair value, but may be sold back to the FHLB SF at its par value with stated notice. The investment in FHLB SF stock is periodically evaluated for impairment based on, among other things, the capital adequacy of the FHLB SF and its overall financial condition. No impairment losses on our investment in FHLB SF stock have been recorded through March 31, 2013.
Derivative Assets and Liabilities
Derivatives are carried at fair value on a recurring basis and primarily relate to interest rate swaps, caps, floors, basis swaps and forward exchange contracts which we enter into to manage interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk. Our derivatives are principally traded in over-the-counter markets where quoted market prices are not readily available. Instead, the fair value of derivatives is measured using market observable inputs such as interest rate yield curves, volatilities and basis spreads. We also consider counterparty credit risk in valuing our derivatives. We typically classify our derivatives in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Real Estate Owned
REO is initially recorded at its estimated fair value less costs to sell at the time of foreclosure if the related REO is classified as held for sale. REO held for sale is carried at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value subsequent to the date of foreclosure, with fair value adjustments recorded on a nonrecurring basis. REO held for use is recorded at its carrying amount, net of accumulated depreciation, with fair value adjustments recorded on a nonrecurring basis if the carrying amount of the real estate is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. When available, the fair value of REO is determined using actual market transactions. When market

32

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

transactions are not available, the fair value of REO is typically determined based upon recent appraisals by third parties. We may or may not adjust these third party appraisal values based on our own internally developed judgments and estimates. These adjustments typically include discounts for lack of marketability and foreign property discounts. Significant increases to these inputs would result in significant decreases in the fair value measurements. To the extent that market transactions or third party appraisals are not available, we use the income approach through internally developed valuation models to estimate the fair value. This requires the use of significant judgment surrounding discount rates and the timing and amounts of future cash flows. Fair values determined through actual market transactions are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy while fair values determined through third party appraisals and through internally developed valuation models are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Other Foreclosed Assets
When we foreclose on a borrower whose underlying collateral consists of assets other than real estate, we record the acquired assets at the estimated fair value at the time of foreclosure. Valuation of that collateral is typically performed utilizing internally developed estimates. Underlying collateral values may be supported by appraisals or broker price opinions. When fair value adjustments are recorded on these assets, we typically classify them in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Deposits
Deposits are carried at historical cost. The carrying amounts of deposits for savings and money market accounts and brokered certificates of deposit are deemed to approximate fair value as they either have no stated maturities or short-term maturities. Certificates of deposit are grouped by maturity date, and the fair value is estimated utilizing discounted cash flow techniques. The interest rates applied are rates currently being offered for similar certificates of deposit within the respective maturity groupings.
Term Debt
Term debt comprises our term debt securitizations. For disclosure purposes, the fair values of our term debt securitizations are determined based on actual prices from recent third party purchases of our debt when available and based on indicative price quotes received from various market participants when recent transactions have not occurred.
Other Borrowings
Our other borrowings comprise subordinated debt and FHLB borrowings. For disclosure purposes, the fair value of our subordinated debt is determined based on recent third party purchases of our debt when available and based on indicative price quotes received from market participants when recent transactions have not occurred.  The carrying value of our FHLB borrowings is deemed to approximate fair value.
Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments
Loan Commitments and Letters of Credit
Loan commitments and letters of credit generate ongoing fees at our current pricing levels, which are recognized over the term of the commitment period. For disclosure purposes, the fair value is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements, the current creditworthiness of the counterparties and current market conditions. In addition, for loan commitments, the market rates of return utilized in the valuation of the loans held for investment as described above are applied to this analysis to reflect current market conditions.

Overview
CapitalSource Inc., a Delaware corporation, is a commercial lender that provides financial products to small and middle market businesses nationwide and provides depository products and services to consumers in southern and central California, primarily through our wholly owned subsidiary, CapitalSource Bank (the "Bank"). References to we, us, the Company or CapitalSource refer to CapitalSource Inc. together with its subsidiaries. References to CapitalSource Bank include its subsidiaries, and references to the Parent Company refer to CapitalSource Inc. and its subsidiaries other than the Bank.
As of March 31, 2013, we had total assets of $8.5 billion, total loans of $6.2 billion, total deposits of $5.7 billion and stockholders' equity of $1.5 billion.
Our corporate headquarters is located in Los Angeles, California, and we have 21 retail bank branches located in southern and central California. Our loan origination efforts are conducted nationwide with key offices located in Chevy Chase, Maryland,

39



Los Angeles, Denver, Chicago, Boston, New York and Atlanta. We also maintain a number of smaller lending offices throughout the country.
For the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, we operated as two reportable segments: the Bank and Other Commercial Finance. The Bank segment comprises our commercial lending and banking business activities, and our Other Commercial Finance segment comprises our loan portfolio and other business activities in the Parent Company. For additional information, see Note 15, Segment Data.

Current Developments
We offer a broad range of specialized senior secured, commercial loan products to small and middle-market businesses, and we offer our loan products on a nationwide basis. With a deposit gathering platform based in southern and central California, we believe our business model is well positioned to deliver a broad range of customized financial solutions to borrowers. Since the formation of the Bank in 2008, we have launched or acquired five lending platforms - equipment finance, small business, professional practice, multifamily lending and insurance premium finance lending. It is our intent to continue to seek lending platforms and experienced individuals who will further augment our specialized businesses.
We are pursuing our strategy of converting the Bank to a commercial bank. Our current strategy for achieving this goal involves the Parent Company becoming a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956. Subject to ongoing discussions with regulatory authorities, we expect to file an application to convert the existing industrial bank charter of the Bank to a commercial charter and to file an application for the Parent Company to become a bank holding company. This process is moving forward and we continue to expect it can be concluded during 2013. There is no assurance that any of the regulatory authorities will approve our applications.
Our broader business focus includes operating the Bank. As of March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Bank had $7.6 billion and $7.0 billion of assets, respectively. In the first quarter of 2013, the Bank's loan portfolio grew by approximately $205.7 million or 3.6%, while the loan portfolio of the Parent Company decreased by $171.2 million or 32.9%; resulting in net loan growth of $34.5 million. The credit profile improved as non-performing assets as of March 31, 2013 were $36.0 million, or 0.5% of total assets, a decrease of $12.3 million from December 31, 2012. The allowance for loan losses as of March 31, 2013 was $99.8 million or 1.7% of loans compared to $98.9 million or 1.8% of loans as of December 31, 2012.
Beyond the Bank operations, our ongoing strategy is to liquidate our remaining Parent Company assets and continue to return a substantial portion of our excess capital to shareholders through a combination of share repurchases and/or dividends. The Company began repurchasing shares in December 2010 and through March 2013, we have repurchased approximately 135.9 million shares, or 42% of the shares outstanding since December 2010. Consistent with the objective of returning excess capital to shareholders, during the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company's Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program with authority to purchase up to $250.0 million of outstanding shares through the end of 2013.
We also continue to repay debt at the Parent Company. As of December 31, 2012, the carrying amount of our term debt securitizations was $177.2 million. In January 2013, we called the 2007-1 term debt securitization and repaid the outstanding third-party debt of $47.1 million and recognized no gain or loss on the extinguishment of debt. As of March 31, 2013, the carrying amount of our term debt securitizations was $74.2 million. Subsequently, in April 2013, amounts collected in late March and reported in restricted cash, were used to reduce the carrying value of the term debt securitizations by $39.9 million.
The Bank net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2013 rose to 5.08% due to several factors including: the full quarter benefit of strong loan portfolio growth in late December, which was funded primarily by our excess liquidity; higher amortization of net deferred loan fees and discounts; and a series of non-recurring items, offset by the negative impact of declining yields in the loan portfolio. The net interest margin will be lower in subsequent periods due to the absence of certain non-recurring items which positively benefited the first quarter margin. In addition, we anticipate that the net interest margin will decline from the first quarter level during the balance of 2013 for two principal reasons. First, the Bank is experiencing strong competition across each of its loan products, which is depressing loan yields. Secondly, the prolonged low interest rate environment and abundant liquidity is causing a greater than normal volume of loan repayments on our higher rate loans and has caused us to lower coupon rates on some existing loans. As a counterbalance to these pressures on our net interest margin, we expect asset mix improvement as loan growth continues to be funded in part with excess liquidity. Net interest margin was 4.84%, 4.97%, 4.95%, and 5.12% for the three-months ended December 31, 2012, September 30, 2012, June 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012, respectively.

The significant factors influencing our consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2012 included a decrease in income tax expense, an overall decrease in operating expenses, and an increase in provision for loan and lease losses. Consolidated income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was $21.6 million and $25.7 million, respectively. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily the result of tax expense on the pre-tax book income. Operating expenses decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2012 primarily due to decreases in loan servicing expense of $2.3 million, professional fees of $2.1 million, and compensation expense of $1.4 million. Loan servicing expense decreased due to lower third-party service costs; professional fees decreased due to lower legal and other consulting service fees; and compensation expense decreased due to lower headcount. The provision for loan and lease losses increased from $11.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 to $12.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 primarily due to a higher level of loan repayments during the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013 which resulted in a reduction in general reserve requirements.
Our consolidated yields on interest-earning assets and the costs of interest-bearing liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 were as follows:

Periodic reviews of the carrying amount of deferred tax assets are made to determine if a valuation allowance is necessary. A valuation allowance is required when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. All evidence, both positive and negative, is evaluated when making this determination. Items considered in this analysis include the ability to carry back losses to recoup taxes previously paid, the reversal of temporary differences, tax planning strategies, historical financial performance, expectations of future earnings and the length of statutory carryforward periods. Significant judgment is required in assessing future earnings trends and the timing of reversals of temporary differences.
In 2009, we established a valuation allowance against a substantial portion of our net deferred tax assets where we determined that there was significant negative evidence with respect to our ability to realize such assets. During 2012, we reversed a significant portion of the valuation allowance, and such reversal was recorded as a benefit in our income tax expenses. The deferred tax asset was evaluated based on our evaluation of the available positive and negative evidence with respect to our ability to realize the deferred tax asset, including the associated character and jurisdiction of the deferred tax asset. A valuation allowance remains in effect with respect to deferred tax assets where we believe sufficient evidence does not exist at this time to support a reduction in the allowance. It is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets subject to a valuation allowance will not be realized primarily due to their character and/or the expiration of the carryforward periods. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the valuation allowance was $128.1 million and $128.6 million, respectively.
Consolidated income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was $21.6 million and $25.7 million, respectively. The tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was primarily the result of the tax expense on the pre-tax book income. The tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was primarily the result of the additional valuation allowance needed to fully offset the Bank's net deferred tax assets.

Interest Income
Total interest income increased to $102.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $98.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, with an average yield on interest-earning assets of 5.94% for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to 6.12% for the three months ended March 31, 2012. During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, interest income on loans was $93.3 million and $88.9 million, respectively, yielding 6.68% and 7.24% on average loan balances of $5.7 billion and $4.9 billion, respectively. The 0.56% decrease in loan yield is made-up of a 43 basis point drop from lower loan and lease yields and a 13 basis points decrease in amortization of deferred loan fees.
During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, $1.1 million and $1.9 million, respectively, of interest income was not recognized for loans on non-accrual status, which negatively impacted the yield on loans by 0.08% and 0.10%, respectively. Included within these balances was $0.2 million and $0.8 million, respectively, of interest collected on loans previously on non-accrual status and recognized in interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.
During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, interest income from our investments, including available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities, was $8.8 million and $9.5 million, yielding 3.19% and 3.06% on average balances of $1.1 billion and $1.2 billion, respectively. The average balances of investment securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity decreased as a result of principal paydowns and maturities of securities which we did not fully replace due to loan growth and associated liquidity needs. The investment yield change is primarily due to a 31 basis point increase resulting from the accelerated discount amortization of a CMBS security from its prepayment, offset by an 18 basis point decrease resulting from relatively higher yielding securities paying down and purchasing new securities at lower yields. As a result, total interest income on investments decreased $0.7 million attributed to an $1.9 million decrease in interest income from available-for-sale securities, offset by a $1.2 million increase in interest income from held-to-maturity securities. The available-for-sale securities portfolio is

42



mostly comprised of agency mortgage-backed securities, which have been experiencing an acceleration of premium amortizations due to updated prepayment assumptions.
During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we purchased no available-for-sale securities and $22.9 million of held-to-maturity securities, while $101.9 million and $27.7 million of principal repayments were received from our investment securities, available-for-sale and held-to-maturity, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we purchased $29.6 million of available-for-sale securities and no held-to-maturity securities, while $89.8 million and $1.1 million of principal repayments were received from our investment securities, available-for-sale and held-to-maturity, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, interest income on cash and cash equivalents was $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, yielding 0.27% and 0.37% on average balances of $186.3 million and $275.8 million, respectively.
Interest Expense
Total interest expense decreased $1.3 million to $14.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $16.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities of 0.96% and 1.11% for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The lower cost of interest-bearing liabilities was the result of a lower interest rate environment as higher interest bearing rate liabilities were replaced at lower interest rates. Interest expense decreased despite an increase in average balances of interest-bearing liabilities of $6.2 billion and $5.8 billion as of March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which consisted of deposits and borrowings.
Our interest expense on deposits for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was $12.1 million and $13.3 million with an average cost of deposits of 0.87% and 1.02% on average balances of $5.6 billion and $5.2 billion, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, $0.8 billion of our time deposits matured with a weighted average interest rate of 0.77% and $1.0 billion of new and renewed time deposits were issued at a weighted average interest rate of 0.87%. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, $1.2 billion of our time deposits matured with a weighted average interest rate of 1.08%, and $1.5 billion of new and renewed time deposits were issued at a weighted average interest rate of 0.91%.
During the three months ended March 31, 2013, our interest expense on borrowings, consisting of FHLB SF borrowings, was $2.7 million with an average cost of 1.82% on an average balance of $599.3 million. The primary reason for using FHLB SF borrowings as a funding source is to manage interest rate risk and the secondary reason is to provide a source of liquidity. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, there were $23.0 million in advances taken with a weighted average rate of 0.87% and $18.0 million of maturities with a weighted average rate of 1.67%. The weighted average rates for FHLB SF borrowings maturing within one year, one to five years, and greater than five years were 1.78%, 1.71% and 2.2%, respectively. Overall, the FHLB SF borrowing balance had a weighted-average-life of 3.1 years. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, our interest expense on FHLB SF borrowings was $2.8 million with an average cost of 1.96% on an average balance of $567.7 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, there were $45.0 million in advances taken and $8.0 million of maturities.

Provision for Loan and Lease Losses
Our provision for loan and lease losses is based on our evaluation of the adequacy of the existing allowance for losses in relation to total loan portfolio and our periodic assessment of the inherent risks relating to the loan portfolio resulting from our review of selected individual loans. For details of activity in our provision for loan and lease losses, see the Credit Quality and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses section.
Non-Interest Income
The Bank services loans and other assets, which are owned by the Parent Company and third parties, for which it receives fees based on the number of loans or other assets serviced. Loans serviced by the Bank for the benefit of others were $1.1 billion and $1.4 billion as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, of which $359.7 million and $549.0 million, respectively, were owned by the Parent Company. The Bank also provides administrative, tax, credit, treasury and other similar services to the Parent Company for which it receives fees.
We compared the various components of non-interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2013, and 2012 as follows:

Leased equipment income increased $1.6 million, or 48.1%, from the three months ended March 31, 2012 to the three months ended March 31, 2013 primarily due to a $38.1 million, or 47.2%, increase in equipment on operating leases.

Gain (loss) on derivatives increased $1.3 million, 285.0%, from the three months ended March 31, 2012 to the three months ended March 31, 2013 due to positive market adjustments on our foreign currency derivatives.
Loan servicing revenue decreased $1.6 million, or 44.0%, from the three months ended March 31, 2012 to the three months ended March 31, 2013, as the services provided to the Parent Company diminished with the runoff of its loan portfolio.
Intercompany shared service revenue decreased $1.2 million, or 32.1%, from the three months ended March 31, 2012 to the three months ended March 31, 2013, as the services provided to the Parent Company diminished with the runoff of its loan portfolio.
Other income decreased $2.2 million, or 115.8%, from the three months ended March 31, 2012 to the three months ended March 31, 2013 due to higher currency translation losses of $1.8 million on loans denominated in foreign currencies and a $0.4 million decrease on miscellaneous income items.

Loan servicing expense decreased $2.6 million, or 98.3%, from the three months ended March 31, 2012 to the three months ended March 31, 2013 primarily due to a $2.1 million decrease in third-party cost of services and $0.5 million decrease in reimbursable loan servicing costs from the Parent Company. Loan servicing expense can be volatile period to period due to the timing of billing and the receipt of loan expense reimbursements from borrowers.
Leased equipment depreciation increased $1.1 million, or 48.6%, from the three months ended March 31, 2012 to the three months ended March 31, 2013 primarily due to a $38.1 million, or 47.2%, increase in equipment on operating leases.

Interest Income
Interest income decreased to $10.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $22.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, with an average yield on interest-earning assets of 7.49% for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to 8.45% for the three months ended March 31, 2012. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, our average balance of interest-earning assets decreased by $540.5 million due to the runoff of the Parent Company portfolio and the Parent Company's loan sale to the Bank of loans with an aggregate outstanding balance of $67.7 million during January 2013. As a result, total Parent Company assets and loans decreased by 56.3% and 61.9%, respectively, from March 31, 2012 to March 31, 2013.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased $1.4 million, or 29.7%, to $3.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, primarily due to a decrease of $241.0 million, or 32.0%, in average interest-bearing liabilities from $752.3 million as of March 31, 2012 to $511.3 million as of March 31, 2013. The decrease in interest-bearing liabilities was primarily driven by the extinguishment and repayment of outstanding debt. As a result, total Parent Company outstanding debt and liabilities have both declined 34.2% since March 31, 2012.

Gain (loss) on investments, net increased $2.2 million, or 711.7%, from the three months ended March 31, 2012 to the three months ended March 31, 2013 primarily due to the larger impairments on investments carried at cost which were recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2012.
Gain on sale of assets increased $1.0 million, or 55.8%, from the three months ended March 31, 2012 to the three months ended March 31, 2013 due to gains from the sale of loans that had been fully charged off in 2011 and 2012.
Non-Interest Expense
Prior to 2012, the Parent Company referred loans to the Bank and provided loan origination and other services. At the start of 2012, substantially all of the Parent Company's personnel were transferred into the Bank, as a result, many of the related expenses paid by the Parent Company decreased.

Credit Quality and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
We maintain a comprehensive credit policy manual that is supplemented by specific loan product underwriting guidelines. Among other things, the credit policy manual sets forth requirements that meet the regulations enforced by both the FDIC and the DFI. Several examples of such requirements are the loan-to-value limitations for real estate secured loans, various real estate appraisal and other third-party reports standards, and collateral insurance requirements.
Our underwriting guidelines outline specific underwriting standards and minimum specific risk acceptance criteria for each lending product offered, including the use of interest reserves. For additional information, see Credit Risk Management within this section.
Real estate - construction loans
In prior years, real estate construction loans comprised a greater portion of our loan portfolio. At March 31, 2013, real estate construction loans were $57.2 million, or 0.92% of total loans. By comparison, at the end of 2010, real estate construction loans were $1.4 billion, or 14.8% of total loans. We reduced our real estate construction lending activity because we consider real estate construction loans to be a higher-risk loan type, and because of our view that these loans are higher risk, we are providing additional disclosure of the policies and procedures related to our real estate construction loan portfolio.
The objective of our servicing procedures for real estate construction loans is to maintain the proper relationship between the loan amount funded and the value of the collateral securing the loan. The primary servicing tasks include, but are not limited to:
Monitoring construction of the project to evaluate the work in place, quality of construction (compliance with plans and specifications) and adequacy of the budget to complete the project. We generally use a third party consultant for this evaluation, but also maintain frequent contact with the borrower to obtain updates on the project.
Monitoring, where applicable, the leasing or unit sales activity compared to market leasing or market unit sales and compared to the underwritten leasing or unit sales actively.

49



Monitoring compliance with the terms and conditions of the loan agreement, which contains important construction and leasing provisions.
Reviewing and approving advance requests per the loan agreement which establishes the frequency, conditions and process for making advances. Typically, each loan advance is conditioned upon funding only for work in place, certification by the construction consultant, and sufficient funds remaining in the loan budget to complete the project.
Most of our of real estate construction loans include an interest reserve that is established upon origination of the loan. We recognize interest income from the reserve during the construction period as long as the interest is deemed collectible. Our risk assessment policies and procedures require that the assignment of a risk rating consider whether the capitalization of interest may be masking other performance related issues. We consider the status of the construction project securing our loan, including its leasing or sales activity (where applicable), relative to our expectations for the status of the project during our initial underwriting. The adequacy of the interest reserve generally is evaluated each time a risk rating conclusion is required or rendered with particular attention paid to the underlying value of the collateral and its ongoing support of the transaction.
In considering the performing status of a real estate construction loan, the current payment of interest, whether in cash or through an interest reserve, is only one of the factors used in our analysis. Our impairment analysis generally considers the loan's maturity, the likelihood of a restructuring of the loan and if that restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring, whether the borrower is current on interest and principal payments, the condition of underlying assets and the ability of the borrower to refinance the loan at market terms. Although an interest reserve may mitigate a delinquency that could cause impairment, other issues with the loan or borrower (like the project's progress compared to underwriting and the market in which the project is located) may lead to an impairment determination. Impairment is then measured based on a fair market or discounted cash flow value to assess the current value of the loan relative to the principal balance. If the valuation analysis indicates that repayment in full is doubtful, the loan will be placed on non-accrual status and designated as non-performing.
Obtaining updated third-party valuations is considered when significant negative variances to expected performance exist. Generally, our policy on updating appraisals is to obtain current appraisals subsequent to the impairment date if there are significant changes to the market conditions for the underlying assumptions from the most recent appraisal. Some factors that could cause significant changes include the passage of more than twelve months since the time of the last appraisal; the volatility of the local market; the availability of financing; the number of competing properties; new improvements to or lack of maintenance of the subject property or competing surrounding properties; a change in zoning; environmental contamination; or failure of the project to meet material assumptions of the original appraisal.

Includes deferred loan fees and discounts. Excludes loans held for sale at lower cost or fair value.
The increase in the non-performing loan balance from December 31, 2012 to March 31, 2013 is primarily due to two loans that were placed on non-accrual status during the three months ended March 31, 2013. These two loans were originated prior to the formation of the Bank, were operating under TDRs, and experienced credit deterioration during the quarter.
Additionally, certain loans within our portfolio have been identified as potential problem loans. Potential problem loans are loans that are not considered non-performing loans, as disclosed in the table above, or loans that have been restructured in a TDR, but loans where management is aware of information regarding potential credit problems of a borrower that leads to serious doubts as to the ability of such borrower to comply with the loan repayment terms. Such credit problems could eventually result in the loans being reclassified as non-performing loans. As of March 31, 2013 we had no potential problem loans. As of December 31, 2012, we had $1.9 million in potential problem loans related to six loans for which we have determined that it was probable that we would be unable to collect all principal and interest payments due in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreements, but we have concluded that repayment in full of the loans is fully supported by existing collateral or an enterprise valuation of the borrower in accordance with our most recent valuation analysis.

Our allowance for loan and lease losses increased by $1.0 million to $118.3 million as of March 31, 2013 from $117.3 million as of December 31, 2012. This increase is attributable to a $1.9 million decrease in general reserves and a $2.9 million increase in specific reserves on impaired loans as further described below.
The factors influencing the overall reduction of general reserves as of March 31, 2013 include general reserve increases relating to new loans originated, general reserve decreases related to loans being paid off, and other changes stemming from applying a quantitative and qualitative assessment which includes economic and portfolio performance trends. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the composition of our loan portfolio continues to improve because we are originating loan types in which we have experienced favorable historical credit results and the loans types with poor historical credit performance are paying off or are being resolved through our loan workout process. As such, our estimation of general reserves reflects this lower potential for losses.
Our specific reserves increased as a result of newly recorded specific loss provisions on loans that were originated prior to the formation of the Bank where the credit standing deteriorated further during the three months ended March 31, 2013.
Impaired loans
We employ a formal quarterly process to both identify impaired loans and record appropriate specific reserves based on available collateral and other borrower-specific information. We consider a loan to be impaired when, based on current information, we determine that it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the original loan agreement. In this regard, impaired loans include those loans where we expect to encounter a significant delay in the collection of, and/or shortfall in the amount of contractual payments due to us as well as loans that we have assessed as impaired, but for which we ultimately expect to collect all payments. Each quarter, we determine each impaired loan's fair value. The fair value is either i) the present value of payments expected to be received discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, ii) the fair value of the collateral for collateral dependent loans, or iii), the impaired loan's observable market price. Each impaired loan's fair value is compared to the recorded investment in the impaired loan. If a shortfall exists, a specific reserve is established. The specific reserves in place at each period end are directly related to the population of impaired loans in place at each period end.

The increase in specific reserves from December 31, 2012 to March 31, 2013 stems from the net effect of i) loan resolutions of impaired loans with existing specific reserves of $2.6 million, ii) additional specific reserves for loans impaired as of December 31, 2012 net of related reversals or charge offs of $3.8 million, and iii) new specific reserves net of related charge offs for loans new to impairment status during the three months ended March 31, 2013 of $1.7 million. The specific reserves in place at March 31, 2013 and at December 31, 2012 reduce the carrying values of our impaired loans to the amounts we expect to collect.

Adversely Classified Items Coverage Ratio
The Adversely Classified Items Coverage Ratio is a common regulatory measure used to assess the credit risk profile of a bank. The ratio compares the sum of the loans rated Substandard or Doubtful (plus any associated unfunded commitments, REO, foreclosed assets and investments rated Substandard) to the sum of the Tier 1 regulatory capital plus the allowance for loan and lease losses.  As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the ratio was 34.0% and 32.2%, respectively.

As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, approximately 80% and 81%, respectively, of the Bank accruing adjustable rate portfolio was subject to an interest rate floor. Due to low market interest rates as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, substantially all loans with interest rate floors were bearing interest at such floors. The weighted average spread between the floor rate and the fully indexed rate on accruing loans was 0.92% and 1.00% as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. To the extent the underlying indices subsequently increase, the Bank's interest yield on this portfolio will not rise as quickly due to the effect of the interest rate floors.

Certain loans within our portfolio have been identified as potential problem loans. Potential problem loans are loans that are not considered non-performing loans, as disclosed in the table above, or loans that have been restructured in a TDR, but loans where management is aware of information regarding potential credit problems of a borrower that leads to serious doubts as to the ability of such borrower to comply with the loan repayment terms. Such credit problems could eventually result in the loans being reclassified as non-performing loans. As of March 31, 2013, we had no potential problem loans. As of December 31, 2012, we had $1.9 million in potential problem loans related to six loans for which we have determined that it was probable that we would be unable to collect all principal and interest payments due in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreements, but we have concluded that repayment in full of the loans is fully supported by existing collateral or an enterprise valuation of the borrower in accordance with our most recent valuation analysis.

Our allowance for loan and lease losses increased by $0.9 million to $99.8 million as of March 31, 2013 from $98.9 million as of December 31, 2012. This increase was comprised of a $1.4 million increase in general reserves and a $0.5 million decrease in specific reserves on impaired loans.
The effective general reserve percentage was slightly lower at March 31, 2013 than year end because the composition of our loan portfolio continues to improve as we originate loan types in which we have experienced favorable historical credit results and the loan types with poor historical credit performance are paying off or are being resolved through our loan workout process. As such, our estimation of general reserves reflects this lower potential for losses. The overall increase in the reserve was attributable to net loan growth and certain qualitative increases related to certain credit risk downgrades and increases to minimum loss factors given the global economic conditions and changing loan portfolio concentrations.

Impaired loans
We employ a formal quarterly process to both identify impaired loans and record specific reserves in accordance with the Company policy. For additional information, see Credit Quality and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses - Consolidated within this section.

The decrease in specific reserves from December 31, 2012 to March 31, 2013 stems from the net effect of i) loan resolutions of impaired loans with existing specific reserves of $0.3 million, ii) reversals of specific reserves for loans impaired as of December 31, 2012 net of related additions or charge offs of $0.5 million, and iii) new specific reserves net of related charge offs for loans new to impairment status during the three months ended March 31, 2013 of $0.3 million. The specific reserves in place at March 31, 2013 and at December 31, 2012 reduce the carrying values of our impaired loans to the amounts we expect to collect.

The original legal balance of that portfolio had been previously charged off as collection was deemed remote for portions of these loans.
We believe the origination strategy and underwriting practices in place support a loan portfolio with normal, acceptable degrees of credit risk. We acknowledge, however, that some of our lending products have greater credit risk than others. The categories with more credit risk than others are those that have comprised a greater degree of our historical charge offs. As such, we believe commercial real estate loans, excluding healthcare real estate loans, originated prior to the Bank's July 2008 inception have a higher degree of credit risk than other lending products in our portfolio. For the year ended December 31, 2012, there were no charge offs related to these loans. However, for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, commercial real estate loans, excluding healthcare real estate loans, originated prior to the Bank's July 2008 inception comprised, 71.0% and 93.0%, respectively, of those years' charge offs. Due to the severity of charge offs in this category in 2011 and 2010, we did record net recoveries of $9.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, commercial real estate loans, excluding healthcare real estate loans, originated prior to the Bank's July 2008 inception totaled $52.4 million and $53.7 million, respectively, or 0.9% and 1.0% of total loans, respectively.
Troubled Debt Restructurings
During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, loans with an aggregate carrying value of $4.4 million and $49.5 million, respectively, as of their respective restructuring dates, were involved in TDRs. Loans involved in TDRs are classified as impaired upon closing on the TDR. Generally, a loan that has been involved in a TDR is no longer classified as impaired one year subsequent to the restructuring, assuming the loan performs under the restructured terms and the restructured terms are commensurate with current market terms. In most cases, the restructured terms of loans involved in TDRs are not commensurate with current market terms. There was $0.7 million of specific reserves allocated to loans that were involved in TDRs as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
Certain TDRs are the product of a workout strategy involving an "A note/ B note" structure, in which the B note component is fully charged off. This workout strategy results in an A note equaling a balance the borrower can service and is underwritten to a loan to value ratio based on the current collateral valuation. The A note may be assigned an internal risk rating of pass based on the revised terms and management's assessment of the borrower's ability and intent to repay. The A note is structured at a market interest rate, and the A note debt service is typically covered by the in-place property operations allowing it to be placed on accrual status. The reduced loan amount induces the borrower to continue to support the loan and maintain the collateral despite the observed reduction in the collateral value. The B note usually bears no interest or an interest rate significantly below the market rate. The A note contains amortization provisions, and the B note requires amortization only after the full repayment of the A note.

59



Accrual status for each loan, including restructured A notes, is considered on a loan by loan basis. The newly established principal balance of the A note is set at a level where the borrower is expected to keep the loan current and where the underlying collateral value adequately supports the loan. The revised structure is intended to allow the A loan to be placed on accrual status.
All loans that have undergone this A note / B note restructuring are considered TDRs. The A notes are deemed impaired and remain so classified for at least one year from the date of the restructuring. After one year, the A notes are evaluated quarterly to determine if the loan performance has complied with the terms of the TDR such that the impairment classification may be removed. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there were no loans outstanding that have undergone this A note / B note restructuring.
Adversely Classified Items Coverage Ratio
The Adversely Classified Items Coverage Ratio is a common regulatory measure used to assess the credit risk profile of a bank. The ratio compares the sum of the loans rated Substandard or Doubtful (plus any associated unfunded commitments, REO, foreclosed assets and investments rated Substandard) to the sum of the Tier 1 regulatory capital plus the allowance for loan and lease losses. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the ratio was 13.5% and 11.6%, respectively.

As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, substantially all of the adjustable rate loan portfolio comprised loans that are subject to an interest rate floor and were accruing interest. Due to low market interest rates as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, substantially all loans with interest rate floors were bearing interest at such floors. The weighted average spread between the floor rate and the fully indexed rate on accruing loans was 1.63% and 1.70% as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. To the extent the underlying indices subsequently increase, the interest yield on these adjustable rate loans will not rise as quickly due to the effect of the interest rate floors.

Shareholders' Equity
Shareholders' equity decreased by $142.5 million from December 31, 2012 to March 31, 2013, primarily due to the 15.0 million repurchase of our common stock pursuant to the Share Repurchase Program at an average price of $9.18 per share for a total purchase price of $137.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Our allowance for loan and lease losses increased by $0.1 million to $18.5 million as of March 31, 2013 from $18.4 million as of December 31, 2012. This increase comprises a $3.3 million decrease in general reserves and a $3.4 million increase in specific reserves on impaired loans as further described below.
As of March 31, 2013, the unpaid principal balance of non-impaired loans was $231.7 million, and the associated general reserves were $10.4 million, representing an effective general reserve percentage of 4.5%. As of December 31, 2012, the unpaid principal balance of non-impaired loans was $379.2 million, and the associated general reserves were $13.7 million, representing an effective general reserve percentage of 3.6%. The overall reserve percentage was slightly higher at March 31, 2013 than at year

end because the loan portfolio had less favorable credit performance attributes. Specifically, there was a decline in the balance of certain non-impaired commercial loans categories with poor credit performance that carried disproportionately higher general reserves. The balances of these loans declined due to pay-offs or by becoming impaired and becoming subject to a specific reserve evaluation.

The increase in specific reserves from December 31, 2012 to March 31, 2013 stems from the net effect of i) loan resolutions of impaired loans with existing specific reserves of $2.3 million, ii) additional specific reserves for loans impaired as of December 31, 2012 net of related reversals or charge offs of $4.3 million, and iii) new specific reserves net of related charge offs for loans new to impairment status during the three months ended March 31, 2013 of $1.4 million. The specific reserves in place at March 31, 2013 and at December 31, 2012 reduce the carrying values of our impaired loans to the amounts we expect to collect.

The original legal balance of that portfolio had been previously charged off as collection was deemed remote for portions of these loans.
In the Other Commercial Finance portfolio, the areas with more credit risk than others are those that have comprised a greater degree of our historical charge offs. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, commercial real estate loans, excluding healthcare real estate loans, originated prior to the Bank's July 2008 inception comprised 18%, 22% and 48.0%, respectively, of those years' charge offs. As such, we believe commercial real estate loans, excluding healthcare real estate loans, originated prior to the Bank's July 2008 inception have a higher degree of credit risk than other lending products in our portfolio. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, commercial real estate loans, excluding healthcare real estate loans, originated prior to the Bank's July 2008 inception, totaled $42.9 million and $49.4 million, respectively, or 11.9% and 9.0% of total loans, respectively. Additionally, cash flow based commercial loans originated prior to the Bank's July 2008 inception are considered to be higher risk based on historical charge offs. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, cash flow based commercial loans originated prior to the Bank's July 2008 inception comprised 51%, 55% and 40%, respectively, of those years' charge offs. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, cash flow based commercial loans originated prior to the Bank's July 2008 inception totaled $201.1 million and $336.6 million, respectively, or 55.9% and 61.2% of total loans, respectively.
Troubled Debt Restructurings
During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, loans with an aggregate carrying value of $7.8 million and $21.5 million, respectively, as of their respective restructuring dates, were involved in TDRs. Loans involved in TDRs are classified as impaired upon closing on the TDR. Generally, a loan that has been involved in a TDR is no longer classified as impaired one year subsequent to the restructuring, assuming the loan performs under the restructured terms and the restructured terms are commensurate with current market terms. In most cases, the restructured terms of loans involved in TDRs are not commensurate with current market terms. The specific reserves allocated to loans that were involved in TDRs were $8.0 million and $0.9 million as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We separately manage the liquidity of the Bank and the Parent Company as required by regulation. Our liquidity management is based on our assumptions related to expected cash inflows and outflows that we believe are reasonable. These include our assumption that substantially all newly originated loans will be funded by the Bank.
As of March 31, 2013, we had $915.5 million of unfunded commitments to extend credit to our borrowers, of which $856.4 million were commitments of the Bank and $59.1 million were commitments of the Parent Company. Due to their nature, we cannot know with certainty the aggregate amounts we will be required to fund under these unfunded commitments. In many cases, our obligation to fund unfunded commitments is subject to our borrowers' ability to provide collateral to secure the requested additional fundings, the collateral's satisfaction of eligibility requirements, our borrowers' ability to meet specified preconditions to borrowing, including compliance with the loan agreements, and/or our discretion pursuant to the terms of the loan agreements. In other cases, however, there are no such prerequisites or discretion to future fundings by us, and our borrowers may draw on these unfunded commitments at any time. We forecast adequate liquidity to fund the expected borrower draws under these commitments.
The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with, and is subject to and qualified by the information set forth in our Risk Factors and the Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements in our Form 10-K and in this Form 10-Q.

(2)    Paying income taxes is pursuant to our intercompany tax allocation arrangement.
We intend to maintain sufficient liquidity at the Bank to meet depositor demands and fund loan commitments and operations as well as to maintain liquidity ratios required by our regulators. The Bank operates in accordance with the remaining conditions imposed and contractual agreements entered in connection with regulatory approvals obtained upon its formation, including requirements that the Bank is required to maintain a total risk-based capital ratio of not less than 15%, capital levels required for a bank to be considered “well- capitalized” under relevant banking regulations.

65



Pursuant to agreements with our regulators, to the extent the Bank independently is unable to do so, the Parent Company must maintain the Bank's total risk-based capital ratio at not less than 15% and must maintain the capital levels of the Bank at all times to meet the levels required for a bank to be considered “well-capitalized” under the relevant banking regulations. As such, per the Capital Maintenance and Liquidity Agreement ("CMLA"), the Parent Company has provided a $150.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility to the Bank that the Bank may draw on at any time it or the FDIC deems necessary. As of March 31, 2013, there were no amounts drawn or outstanding under this facility. As of March 31, 2013, in connection with the Bank's liquidity risk analysis, we have determined that a draw on this facility would not be required under an adverse stress scenario.
In addition, we have a policy to maintain 7.5% of the Bank's assets in unencumbered cash, cash equivalents and available-for-sale investments. In accordance with regulatory guidance, we have identified, modeled and planned for the financial, capital and liquidity impact of various events, including stress scenarios that would cause a large outflow of deposits, a reduction in borrowing capacity, a material increase in loan funding obligations, a material increase in credit costs or any combination of these events. We anticipate that the Bank would be able to maintain sufficient liquidity and ratios in excess of its required minimum ratios in these events and scenarios and would not need to borrow from the Parent to cover a shortfall per the CMLA. The Bank has a contingency funding plan which contains the steps the Company would take to mitigate a liquidity crisis.
The Bank's primary source of liquidity is deposits, most of which are in the form of certificates of deposit. As of March 31, 2013, deposits at the Bank were $5.7 billion. We utilize various product, pricing and promotional strategies in our deposit business, so that we are able to obtain and maintain sufficient deposits to meet our liquidity needs. For additional information, see Note 5, Deposits, in our accompanying audited consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2013.
The Bank supplements its liquidity with borrowings from the FHLB SF. As of March 31, 2013, the Bank had financing availability with the FHLB SF equal to 35.0% of the Bank's total assets, or $2.6 billion as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The financing is subject to various terms and conditions including pledging acceptable collateral, satisfaction of the FHLB SF stock ownership requirement and certain limits regarding the maximum term of debt. As of March 31, 2013, securities collateral with an estimated fair value of $122.0 million and loans with an unpaid principal balance of $836.2 million were pledged to the FHLB SF. Securities and loans pledged to the FHLB SF are subject to an advance rate in determining borrowing capacity.
As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Bank had borrowing capacity with the FHLB SF based on pledged collateral as follows:

The Bank participates in the primary credit program of the FRB of San Francisco's discount window under which approved depository institutions are eligible to borrow from the FRB for periods of up to 90 days. As of March 31, 2013, collateral with an estimated fair value of $60.0 million had been pledged under this program, and there were no borrowings outstanding under this program.
The Bank also maintains a portfolio of investment securities. As of March 31, 2013, the Bank had $263.5 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and $946.9 million in investment securities, available-for-sale. The investment portfolio primarily comprises highly liquid securities that can be sold and converted to cash if additional liquidity needs arise.

Cash and cash equivalents;
Income tax payments from the Bank(1);
Payments of principal and interest on loans and securities;
Asset sales;
Dividends from the Bank(2);

We intend to maintain sufficient liquidity at the Parent Company to pay current quarterly dividends to common stockholders, fund revolving loan balances, make interest payments on trust preferred securities, pay operating expenses and pay certain liabilities.  Management regularly monitors the liquidity needs of the Parent Company and will implement appropriate strategies, as necessary, to remain adequately capitalized and to meet its cash needs. We regularly assess the amount and likelihood of projected funding requirements through a review of factors such as current and projected market and economic conditions, individual borrower funding needs, and existing and planned business activities. Our Management Asset/Liability Committee (“ALCO”) provides oversight to the liquidity management process and recommends policy guidelines for the approval of our Board of Directors, and courses of action to address our actual and projected liquidity needs.
As discussed, to the extent the Bank independently is unable to do so, the Parent Company must maintain the Bank's total risk-based capital ratio at not less than 15% and must maintain the capital levels of the Bank at all times to meet the levels required for a bank to be considered “well-capitalized” under the relevant banking regulations. As such, per the CMLA, the Parent Company has provided a $150.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility to the Bank that the Bank may draw on at any time it or the FDIC deems necessary. As of March 31, 2013, there were no amounts drawn or outstanding under this facility. As of March 31, 2013, in connection with the Bank's liquidity risk analysis, we have determined that a draw on this facility would not be required under a severely adverse stress scenario. Under these scenarios, the Parent Company has included the ability to offer and sell securities under its shelf registration and the ability to sell assets with pricing for such sales executed under a distressed scenario.
In December 2010, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of $150.0 million of our common stock over a period of up to two years. Subsequently, an additional $635.0 million was also authorized during the same period. In October 2012, the Board extended the program to include the period through December 31, 2013 and reset the authorization at $250.0 million. Collectively, we refer to these authorizations as the “Stock Repurchase Program.” During the year ended December 31, 2012 we repurchased 49.3 million shares of our common stock under the prior Board approved Stock Repurchase Program at an average price of $6.97 per share for a total purchase price of $344.2 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we repurchased 15.0 million shares of our common stock under the Stock Repurchase Program at an average price of $9.18 per share for a total purchase price of $137.7 million. Any share repurchases made under the Stock Repurchase Program will be made through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions. The amount and timing of any repurchases will depend on market conditions and other factors and repurchases may be suspended or discontinued at any time. All shares repurchased under the Stock Repurchase Program were retired upon settlement. For additional information, see Note 10, Shareholders' Equity, in our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

Special Purpose Entities
We use special purpose entities (“SPEs”) as part of our legacy funding activities, and we service loans that we have transferred to these entities. The use of these special purpose entities is generally required in connection with our non-recourse secured term debt financings to legally isolate from us loans that we transfer to these entities if we were to enter into a bankruptcy proceeding.

67



We evaluate all SPEs with which we are affiliated to determine whether such entities must be consolidated for financial statement purposes. If we determine that such entities represent variable interest entities, we consolidate these entities if we also determine that we are the primary beneficiary of the entity. For special purpose entities for which we determine we are not the primary beneficiary, we account for our economic interests in these entities in accordance with the nature of our investments. The assets and related liabilities of all special purpose entities that we use to issue our term debt are recognized in our accompanying audited consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

Commitments, Guarantees & Contingencies
As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we had unfunded commitments to extend credit to our borrowers of $0.9 billion and $1.0 billion, respectively. Additional information on these contingencies is included in Note 16, Commitments and Contingencies, in our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, included in our Form 10-K, and Liquidity and Capital Resources herein.
We have non-cancelable operating leases for office space and office equipment, which expire over the next twelve years and contain provisions for certain annual rental escalations. For additional information, see Note 16, Commitments and Contingencies, in our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, in our Form 10-K.
We provide standby letters of credit in conjunction with several of our lending arrangements and property lease obligations. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we had issued $39.7 million and $54.2 million, respectively, in standby letters of credit which expire at various dates over the next six years. If a borrower defaults on its commitments subject to any letter of credit issued under these arrangements, we would be required to meet the borrower's financial obligation but would seek repayment of that financial obligation from the borrower. In some cases, borrowers have posted cash and investment securities as collateral with us under these arrangements.
In connection with certain securitization transactions, we have made customary representations and warranties regarding the characteristics of the underlying transferred assets and collateral. Prior to any securitization transaction, we generally performed due diligence with respect to the assets to be included in the securitization transaction and the collateral to ensure that they satisfy the representations and warranties. In our capacity as originator and servicer in certain securitization transactions, we may be required to repurchase or substitute loans which breach a representation and warranty as of their date of transfer to the securitization or financing vehicle.
During the three months ended June 30, 2010, we sold all of our remaining direct real estate investment properties. We are responsible for indemnifying the current owners for any remediation, including costs of removal and disposal of asbestos that existed prior to the sales, through the third anniversary date of the sale. We will recognize any remediation costs, if notified by the current owners of their intention to exercise their indemnification right, however, no such notification has been received to date. As of March 31, 2013, sufficient information was not available to estimate our potential liability for conditional asset retirement obligations as the obligations to remove the asbestos from these properties continue to have indeterminable settlement dates.
From time to time we are party to legal proceedings. We do not believe that any currently pending or threatened proceeding, if determined adversely to us, would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations, including our cash flows.

Credit Risk Management
Credit risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in a borrower's or counterparty's ability to meet its financial obligations under agreed-upon terms. Credit risk exists primarily in our loan, lease and derivative portfolios and certain portions of our investment portfolio that may include investments such as non-agency MBS, non-agency ABS, CMBS and Collateralized Loan Obligations. The degree of credit risk will vary based on many factors including the size of the asset or transaction, the credit characteristics of the borrower, the contractual terms of the agreement and the availability and quality of collateral. We manage credit risk of our derivatives and credit-related arrangements by limiting the total amount of arrangements outstanding with an individual counterparty, by obtaining collateral based on the nature of the lending arrangement and management's assessment of the borrower, and by applying uniform credit standards maintained for all activities with credit risk.
As appropriate, various committees evaluate and approve credit standards and oversee the credit risk management function related to our loans and other investments. These committees' primary responsibilities include ensuring the adequacy of our credit risk management infrastructure, overseeing credit risk management strategies and methodologies, monitoring economic and market conditions having an impact on our credit-related activities and evaluating and monitoring overall credit risk and monitoring our borrowers' financial condition and performance.
Substantially all new loans have been originated at the Bank, and we maintain a comprehensive credit policy manual for all loans that is supplemented by specific loan product underwriting guidelines. Among other things, the credit policy manual sets

68



forth requirements that meet the regulations enforced by both the FDIC and the DFI. Examples of such requirements include the loan to value limitations for real estate secured loans, standards for real estate appraisals and other third-party reports and collateral insurance requirements.
Our underwriting guidelines outline specific underwriting standards and minimum specific risk acceptance criteria for each lending product offered. Loan types defined within these guidelines have three broad categories, within our commercial, real estate and real estate construction loan portfolios. These categories include asset-based loans, cash flow loans and real estate loans, and each of these broad categories has specific subsections that define in detail the following:
Loan structures, which includes the lien positions, amortization provisions and loan tenors;
Collateral descriptions and appropriate valuation methods;
Underwriting considerations which include recommended diligence and verification requirements; and
Specific risk acceptance criteria which enumerate for each loan type the minimum acceptable credit performance standards. Examples of these criteria include maximum loan-to-value percentages for real estate loans, maximum advance rates for asset-based loans and minimum debt service coverage ratios for most loans.
We measure and document each loan's compliance with our specific risk acceptance criteria at underwriting. If at underwriting, there is an exception to these criteria, an explanation of the factors that mitigate this additional risk is considered before an approval is granted. Upon the amendment of any loan agreement, we also measure a loan's compliance with our specific risk acceptance criteria. A record of which loans have exceptions to our specific risk acceptance criteria at underwriting or upon modification is maintained and is reported to the Credit Policy Committee of the Bank Board.
We continuously monitor a borrower's ability to perform under its obligations. Additionally, we manage the size and risk profile of our loan portfolio by syndicating loan exposure to other lenders and selling loans.
Under our credit risk management process, each loan is assigned an internal risk rating that is based on defined credit review standards. While rating criteria vary by product, each loan rating focuses on: the borrower's financial performance and financial standing, the borrower's ability to repay the loan, and the adequacy of the collateral securing the loan. Subsequent to loan origination, risk ratings are monitored and reassessed on an ongoing basis. If necessary, risk ratings are adjusted to reflect changes in the borrower's financial condition, cash flow or financial position. We use loan aggregations by risk rating as one measure of credit risk within the loan portfolio. In addition to risk ratings, we consider the market trend of collateral values and loan concentrations by borrower industries and real estate property types (where applicable). 
Concentrations of Credit Risk
In our normal course of business, we engage in lending activities with borrowers primarily throughout the United States. As of March 31, 2013, borrowers in the following industries comprised the following concentrations by loan balance: health care and social assistance; and real estate and rental and leasing, which represented approximately 22.6% and 21.1% of the outstanding loan portfolio, respectively.  As of March 31, 2013, lender finance loans were our largest loan concentration by sector and represented approximately 15% of our loan portfolio.
Apart from the borrower industry concentrations, loans secured by real estate represented approximately 43% of our outstanding loan portfolio as of March 31, 2013. Within this area, the largest property type concentration was the multifamily category, comprising approximately 13% of total loans and 30% of loans secured by real estate. The largest geographical concentration was in California, comprising approximately 11% of total loans and 25% of loans secured by real estate.

69



We consider multiple loans as one borrower or one credit relationship when borrowers are under common majority ownership, have a common guarantor, or may depend on each other to service our loans.

Represents the primary collateral supporting the loan. In certain cases, there may be additional types of collateral.
(2)
The collateral that secures our loan balance of $101.6 million as of March 31, 2013 consisted of timeshare receivables that had a total outstanding principal balance of $121.4 million as of March 31, 2013. Total senior debt, including our loan balance, secured by the collateral was $101.6 million as of March 31, 2013.
(3)
The collateral that secures our loan balance of $84.5 million as of March 31, 2013 consisted of vacation properties that had a total value of $451.9 million as of March 31, 2013. Total senior debt, including our loan balance, secured by the collateral was $230.5 million as of March 31, 2013.
Non-performing loans include all loans on non-accrual status and accruing loans which are contractually past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest payments. There were 101 credit relationships in the non-performing portfolio as of March 31, 2013, and our largest non-performing credit relationship totaled $33.2 million and comprised 23.7% of our total non-performing loans.
Derivative Counterparty Credit Risk
Derivative financial instruments expose us to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to such agreements. This risk consists primarily of the termination value of agreements where we are in a favorable position. Credit risk related to derivative financial instruments is considered and provided for separately from the allowance for loan and lease losses. We manage the credit risk associated with various derivative agreements through counterparty credit review and monitoring procedures. We obtain collateral from all counterparties based on terms stipulated in the collateral support annex. We also monitor all exposure and collateral requirements daily on a per counterparty basis. We continually monitor the fair value of collateral received from counterparties and may request additional collateral from counterparties or return collateral pledged as deemed appropriate. Our agreements generally include master netting agreements whereby the counterparties are entitled to settle their derivative positions “net.” As of March 31, 2013, the gross positive fair value of derivative financial instruments was $392 thousand. Our master netting arrangements reduced the exposure to this positive fair value by $38 thousand. As of December 31, 2012, our derivative financial instruments had no gross positive fair values and as such, we had no exposure to counterparty risk.

Market Risk Management
Market risk is the risk that values of assets and liabilities or revenues will be adversely affected by changes in market conditions such as interest rate fluctuations. This risk is inherent in the financial instruments associated with our operations and/or activities, including loans, securities, short-term borrowings, long-term debt, trading account assets and liabilities and derivatives.
The primary market risk to which we are exposed is interest rate risk, which is inherent in the financial instruments associated with our operations, primarily including our loans and borrowings. Our traditional loan products are non-trading positions and are reported at amortized cost. Additionally, debt obligations that we incur to fund our business operations are recorded at historical cost. While GAAP requires a historical cost view of such assets and liabilities, these positions are still subject to changes in economic value based on varying market conditions.

Interest Rate Risk Management
Interest rate risk refers to the timing and volume differences in the re-pricing of our rate-sensitive assets and liabilities, changes in the general level of market interest rates and changes in the shape and level of various indices, including LIBOR-based indices and the prime rate. We attempt to mitigate exposure to the earnings impact of the interest rate changes by conducting the majority of our loan and deposit activity using interest rate structures that resets on a periodic basis. The majority of our loan portfolio bears interest at a spread to the LIBOR rate or a prime-based rate with most of the remainder bearing interest at a fixed

70



rate. The majority of the deposit portfolio is comprised of certificates of deposits that generally have an initial term between 3 and 18 months. Our investment and borrowings portfolios are used to offset a portion of the remaining re-pricing risk that exists between our loans and deposits.
The Company measures interest rate risk and the effect of changes in market interest rates using a net interest income simulation analysis. The analysis incorporates forecasted changes in the balance sheet and assumptions that reflect the current interest rate environment. The analysis estimates the interest rate impact of parallel increases in interest rates over a twelve-month horizon.
The estimated changes in net interest income for a twelve-month period based on changes in the interest rates applied to the combined portfolios of our segments as of March 31, 2013, were as follows ($ in thousands):

The analysis above incorporates the Company's assumptions for the market yield curve, pricing sensitivities on loans and deposits, reinvestment of asset and liability cash flows, and prepayments on loans and securities. The simulation analysis includes management's projection for loan originations, investment and funding strategies. The new loans, investment securities, borrowings and deposits are assumed to have interest rates that reflect our forecast of prevailing market terms. We also assumed that LIBOR and prime rates do not fall below 0% for loans and borrowings. Parent Company loans, investment securities and borrowings are assumed to convert to cash as they run off. Actual results may differ from forecasted results due to changes in market conditions as well as changes in management strategies. 
As of March 31, 2013, approximately 57% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of our loans had interest rate floors and were accruing interest. Of the loans with interest rate floors and accruing interest, approximately 97% had contractual rates below the interest rate floor and the floor was providing a benefit to us. The loans with contractual interest rate floors as of March 31, 2013 were as follows:

We enter into basis swap agreements to hedge basis risk between our LIBOR-based term debt and the prime-based loans pledged as collateral for that debt. These basis swaps modify our exposure to interest rate risk by synthetically converting prime rate loans to one-month LIBOR. Our basis swap agreements partially protect us from the risk that interest collected under prime rate loans will not be sufficient to service the interest due under the one-month LIBOR-based term debt.
We have also entered into relatively short-dated forward exchange agreements to minimize exposure to foreign currency risk arising from foreign currency denominated loans.

Critical Accounting Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This preparation requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions, and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements; accordingly, as this information changes, actual results could differ from the estimates, assumptions, and judgments reflected in the financial statements. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions, and judgments and, as such, have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported. These policies relate to the allowance for loan and lease losses, fair value measurements, and

71



income taxes. We have established detailed policies and procedures to ensure that the assumptions and judgments surrounding these areas are adequately controlled, independently reviewed and consistently applied from period to period. Management has discussed the development, selection and disclosure of these critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee has reviewed our disclosures related to these estimates.
There have been no significant changes during the three months ended March 31, 2013 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in Critical Accounting Estimates within Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Supervision and Regulation
From time to time, federal, state and foreign legislation is enacted and regulations are adopted which may have the effect of materially increasing the cost of doing business, limiting or expanding permissible activities, or affecting the competitive balance between banks and other financial services providers. We cannot predict whether or when potential legislation will be enacted, and if enacted, the effect that it, or any implementing regulations, would have on our financial condition or results of operations.
The following is an update to certain sections from our discussion of Supervision and Regulation in our Form 10-K. For further information and discussion, see Item I. Business - Supervision and Regulation, in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
The international Basel Committee on Banking Supervision published the final text of Basel III on December 16, 2010, which introduced new minimum capital requirements, two liquidity ratios, a charge for credit value adjustment and a leverage ratio, among other things. While the time period and scope of U.S. implementation of Basel III remains uncertain, the Basel Committee in January 2013 issued two new measures of liquidity risk in addition to capital requirements: the Liquidity Coverage Ratio (the "LCR") and the Net Stable Funding Ratio (the "NSFR"), which are intended to measure, over different time spans, the amount of liquid assets held by the Bank. The objective of the LCR is to promote short-term resilience of the Bank's liquidity risk profile by ensuring that it has sufficient High Quality Liquid Assets ("HQLA") to survive a significant stress scenario lasting for one month. The objective of the NSFR is to promote resilience over a longer time horizon by creating additional incentives for the Bank to fund its activities with more stable sources of funding on an ongoing basis. The implementation of both of these standards is to commence in January 2015 and January 2018, respectively.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to certain financial market risks, which are discussed in detail in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Market Risk Management section of this Form 10-Q and our Form 10-K. In addition, for additional information on our derivatives, see Note 13, Derivative Instruments, in our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2013, and Note 19, Credit Risk, in our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 included in our Form 10-K.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2013. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2013, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

In December 2010, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of $150.0 million of our common stock over a period of up to two years. Subsequently, an additional $635.0 million was also authorized during the same period. In October 2012, the Board extended the program to include the period through December 31, 2013 and reset the authorization at $250.0 million. Collectively, we refer to these authorizations as the “Stock Repurchase Program.” In March 2013, we repurchased 10.4 million shares of our common stock under the Stock Repurchase Program at an average price of $9.54 per share for a total purchase price of $99.5 million. Of these purchases, purchases of 825,000 shares at an average price of $9.79 per share were settled in April 2013 which, for accounting purposes, were recorded in March 2013. Any share repurchases made under the Stock Repurchase Program will be made through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions. The amount and timing of any repurchases will depend on market conditions and other factors and repurchases may be suspended or discontinued at any time. All shares repurchased under the Stock Repurchase Program were retired upon settlement.
