ITEM 2.02.          Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

          On January 23, 2006, the Company issued a press release publicly announcing that “a classified borrower with outstanding loan balances of approximately $9 million notified the Company that it was experiencing further financial distress.” Effective February 9, 2006, the Company placed all loans to this borrower on non-accrual.  In the first and second quarters of 2006, provisions for loan losses of $2.0 million and $1.1 million, respectively, were recorded for, among other things, anticipated losses on this credit.  In the second quarter, net loan charge-offs of $4.2 million were recorded primarily related to this credit.

          On October 3, 2006, a loan charge-off recovery of $3.0 million was recorded resulting from a cash payment of $4.5 million on the credit.  This payment satisfies the full obligation of the borrower with the exception of an $183,000 secured note. We anticipate that the recovery will result in a reduction in the provision for loan losses for the year of 2006 that is to be recorded in the fourth quarter.
