The aggregate market value of the common equity held by non-affiliates of the Registrant as of June 30, 2004 (the last business day of First McMinnville Corporation’s most recently completed second fiscal quarter) was approximately $68,521,670.* The aggregate market value of the voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates is computed by reference to the price at which the common equity was last sold ($70.00 per share), or the average bid and asked price of such common equity, as of the last business day of the Registrant’s most recently completed second fiscal quarter (June 30, 2004). The calculation assumes that all shares beneficially owned by members of the Board of Directors and executive officers of the Registrant are owned by “affiliates,” a status that each of such Director and executive officer individually disclaims. This computation is based on an estimated 978,881 shares held by non-affiliates at June 30, 2004. Such determination of affiliate status is not necessarily a conclusive determination for other purposes.

As of March 15, 2005, First McMinnville Corporation had 1,042,723 shares of common stock outstanding.

DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE

Portions of the following documents are incorporated by reference herein:

Specified portions of the Registrant’s definitive Proxy Statement for the 2004 Annual Meeting of Shareholders filed with the Commission under Regulation 14A, as set forth in Part III of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.


*In calculating the market value of the common equity held by non-affiliates of First McMinnville Corporation as disclosed on the cover page of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, First McMinnville Corporation has treated as common equity held by affiliates only voting stock owned as of June 30, 2004 by its directors and principal executive officers; we have not treated for purposes of this response stock held by any of our subsidiaries as pledgee or in a fiduciary capacity as stock held by our affiliates. First McMinnville Corporation had no nonvoting common equity outstanding at June 30, 2004. Our response to this item is not intended to be an admission that any person is an affiliate of First McMinnville Corporation for any purpose other than this response.

Forward-Looking Statements

Discussions of certain matters contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K may constitute “forward-looking statement” within the meaning of the Section 27Aof the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Securities Exchange Act”) and, as such, may involve risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements relate to, among other things, expectations of the business environment in which your Company, First McMinnville Corporation, and First National Bank of McMinnville (“Bank” or “First National Bank”) operate, including projections of future performance, perceived opportunities in the market and any statements regarding the Company’s or First National Banks goals, business plans, and/or areas of concern. The Company’s and the Bank’s actual results, performance and achievements may differ materially from the results, performance and achievements expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements.

Business - Factors That May Affect Future Results of Operation” and “Cautionary Warning Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Description of Business

The Company

First McMinnville Corporation (the “Company”) is a one bank holding company that, at December 31, 2004, owned all of the stock of the First National Bank of McMinnville (“First National Bank” or “Bank”). The Company is a financial services corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Tennessee. It was formed in 1984 for the purpose of acquiring all of the issued and outstanding common stock of the First National Bank and it is a bank holding company within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “Bank Holding Company Act”). The Company has elected not to seek financial holding company status, although it believes that it is eligible to do so.

The primary function of the Company is the ownership of the shares of the Bank. Accordingly, the Company’s results of operation and financial performance are virtually identical to those of the Bank in 2004. The Company’s principal business is its ownership of the Bank, which engages in the commercial banking business. At December 31, 2004, the Company had total assets of approximately $308,534,000 and total Shareholders’ equity of $50,079,000. The Company reported net after-tax earnings of approximately $4,650,000 for fiscal 2004. At December 31, 2004, the Bank’s total loans (net of allowance for possible loan losses of $1,816,000) were $147,300,000 and its total deposits were $226,588,000. As of that date, the Company’s Tier 1 capital ratio was 29.79%, its total risk-based capital ratio was 30.86%, and its leverage ratio was 16.17%. Please refer to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Exhibit F for additional information.

Table of Contents

During 2004 the Bank has continued to focus on developing its financial services business in Warren County, Tennessee and in other areas (generally, in those counties contiguous to Warren County, Tennessee). The Bank provides a wide range of commercial banking services to small and medium-sized businesses, including those engaged in the nursery business, the real estate development business, local industry, business executives, professionals and other individuals. The Bank operates throughout Warren County, Tennessee, with three offices located in McMinnville and one located in each of Morrison and Viola. Additional information concerning the general development of the Company’s business since the beginning of the Company’s last fiscal year is set forth as part of Item 7, under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation,” and in the financial statements made part of Item 8 (the “Consolidated Financial Statements”), in this Annual Report on Form 10-K as well as in “Business of the Bank” below in this Item.

The Company’s principal executive offices are located at 200 East Main Street, McMinnville, Warren County, Tennessee 37110, telephone (931) 473-4402.

First National Bank of McMinnville

The First National Bank of McMinnville (“First National Bank” or the “Bank”) is a commercial bank with deposits insured by the Bank Insurance Fund that is administered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Bank is chartered under the National Bank Act. It is subject to comprehensive examination, supervision and regulation by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (called the “OCC”). The Bank was initially chartered in 1874 and has operated continuously since then.

The First National Bank operates five full-service banking offices located in Warren County, Tennessee. Its main office is located in McMinnville, Tennessee and it has additional branches in McMinnville, Morrison, and Viola, Tennessee. The Bank’s primary service area is located in Warren County, Tennessee, and the counties surrounding Warren County. The Bank operates four automated teller machines (“ATMs”). The Bank provides banking, trust and other financial services throughout Warren County and in other areas.

For retail customers, the First National Bank offers a full range of depository products including regular and money market checking accounts; regular, special, and money market savings accounts; various types of certificates of deposit and Individual Retirement Accounts, as well as safe deposit facilities. The Bank also offers its retail customers consumer and other installment loans and credit services. The Bank makes available to local businesses and institutions traditional lending services, such as lines of credit, real estate loans and real estate construction loans, as well as standard depository services and certain other special services. Its principal source of income is from interest earned on personal, commercial, agricultural, and real estate loans of various types. The Bank operates a trust department. The Company and the Bank intend for the foreseeable future to concentrate their efforts in their existing markets. The Bank formed a subsidiary known as First Community Title & Escrow Company in 2001 to engage in the title insurance business, as agent.

Table of Contents

Within the defined service area of the Bank’s main office, the banking business is highly competitive. The Bank competes primarily with banks and with other types of financial institutions, including credit unions, finance companies, brokerage firms, insurance companies, retailers, and other types of businesses that offer credit, loans, check cashing, and comparable services. Deposit deregulation has intensified the competition for deposits among banks and other types of companies in recent years. Deposit gathering and the effective and profitable use of those deposits are two of the most challenging tasks faced by the Bank in particular and the financial services sector in general.

The Bank’s primary source of income in 2004 was its earnings principally derived from interest income from loans and returns from its investment portfolio. The Bank derived approximately 95.04% of its gross earnings from interest income and approximately 4.96% from fees and other non-interest sources. The availability of funds to the Bank is primarily dependent upon the economic policies of the government, the economy in general and the general credit market for loans. The Bank may in the future engage in various business activities permitted to commercial banks and their subsidiaries, either directly, through one or more subsidiaries, or through acquisitions. The Bank intends to provide banking and financial services in Southern Middle Tennessee, primarily in the Warren County and surrounding county trade areas, through its commercial banking operations.

The Bank engages in a full service commercial and consumer banking business, including the following services:

•   Accepting time and demand deposits,
 
•   Providing personal and business checking accounts at competitive rates, and
 
•   Making secured and unsecured commercial and consumer loans.

The Bank is a locally managed community bank that seeks to provide personal attention and professional assistance to its customer base which consists principally of individuals and small and medium-sized businesses. The Bank’s philosophy includes offering direct access to its officers and personnel, providing friendly, informed and courteous service, local and timely decision making, flexible and reasonable operating procedures, and consistently-applied credit policies.

The Bank’s acceptance of time, demand, and savings deposits includes NOW accounts, money market accounts, regular savings accounts, and certificates of deposit.

The Bank makes secured and unsecured commercial, consumer, installment and construction loans. Residential mortgages and small business loans are core products. Consumer loans include revolving credit lines and installment loans.

The Bank offers the following support services to make financial management more efficient and convenient for its customers:

For retail customers, the Bank offers a full range of depository products including regular and money market checking accounts; regular, special, and money market savings accounts; various types of certificates of deposit and Individual Retirement Accounts, as well as safe deposit facilities. The Bank also offers its retail customers consumer and other installment loans and credit services. The Bank makes available to local businesses and institutions traditional lending services, such as lines of credit, real estate loans and real estate construction loans, as well as standard depository services and certain other special services. Its principal source of income is from interest earned on personal, commercial, agricultural, and real estate loans of various types. The Bank has a number of correspondent bank relationships, through which the Bank is effectively able to offer customers services generally available only from larger financial institutions.

The Bank is subject to extensive supervision and regulation by federal banking agencies. Its operations are subject to a wide array of federal and state laws applicable to financial services, to banks, and to lending. Certain of the laws and regulations that affect these operations are outlined briefly below in this Item and in other portions of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

There have been many legislative and regulatory proposals designed to overhaul or otherwise improve the federal deposit insurance system and to improve the overall financial stability of the banking system in the United States. Some of these proposals provide for changes in the bank regulatory structure, including proposals to reduce regulatory burdens on banking organizations and to expand (or to limit) the nature of products and services banks and bank holding companies may offer. It is not possible to predict whether or in what form these proposals may be adopted in the future, and, if adopted, their impact upon either the Bank or the financial services industries in which the Bank competes. However, the enactment of the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002,” the “U.S.A. Patriot Act,” and the recent capital initiatives commonly referred to as “Basel II” have been important developments. See “Capital Adequacy Developments,” “Financial Services Modernization Act,” “U.S.A. Patriot Act,” and “Recent Developments and Future Legislation” in the following pages.

The Company and First National Bank are required to have minimum Tier I and Total Capital ratios of 4.0% and 8.0%, respectively. As of December 31, 2004, the actual ratios for the Company were

Table of Contents

29.79% and 30.86%, respectively. The leverage ratio at December 31, 2004 was 16.17%, and the minimum leverage capital requirement was 4.0%. For the Bank, the minimums were the same and the Bank’s actual Tier 1, total risk-based capital, and leveraged ratio were 29.73%, 30.80%, and 16.14%, respectively. Based solely on its analysis of federal banking regulatory categories, the Company and its subsidiary First National Bank appear to fall within the “well capitalized” categories, including the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. Generally, the Company is pleased with these ratios and believes that they are consistent with the Company’s (and the Bank’s) anticipated growth for the foreseeable future.

Expenditures for research and development activities were not material for the years 2002 through 2004.

Neither the Bank nor any of its significant subsidiaries is dependent upon a single customer or very few customers. The Bank has some concentration in lending to the nursery business, which comprises a large part of the local Warren County, Tennessee economy.

Please refer also to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K) for additional information concerning the Bank.

The principal executive offices of the Bank are located at 200 East Main Street, McMinnville, Warren County, Tennessee 37110, telephone (931) 473-4402.

A financial summary of the Company and its consolidated subsidiary, the First National Bank, is set forth below (amounts are rounded). Please refer also to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional, important information concerning the Company and First National Bank.

Given the difficult economic circumstances existing in Warren County, the Company is generally satisfied with its performance in 2004. The Company is developing a long-term plan designed to respond to recent negative developments in the local economy, such as the closing of a large manufacturing plant, and other comparable issues. Obviously, however, no plan is guaranteed.

Efficiency

Frequently, one measure of productivity in the banking industry is sometimes referred to as the “efficiency ratio.” This ratio is calculated to measure the cost of generating a dollar of revenue. That is, the ratio is designed to reflect the percentage of a dollar which must be expended to generate one dollar of revenue. Fifty percent (that is, $.50 for each $1.00 of revenue generated) is considered by some to be a standard by which a financial organization’s “efficiency” can be measured. The Company calculates this ratio by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income and non-interest income. For 2004, the efficiency ratio was 41.40%, compared to 40.22% for 2003 and 37.48% for 2002. Because the Company is operated on the principle of community bank levels of service, however, money center bank measures of “efficiency ratios” are not believed to be fairly applicable to the Company or to First National Bank. In order to compete more effectively against larger commercial banks and thrifts, the Company has elected to provide the high levels of service that mandate or merit higher levels of personnel per dollar of assets than might be true of a larger institution. However, like any other well run business, the Company remains committed to aggressively managing its costs within the framework of its own business model. This is a forward-looking statement, and actual results could differ because of several factors, including those specified or described in the discussion of “Cautionary Warning Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Subsidiary

The First National Bank is the Company’s sole subsidiary. The Bank has one, subsidiary, First Community Title & Escrow Company, which was formed in 2001 to act as a title insurance agency.

Services To and Transactions with Subsidiary

6


Table of Contents

Intercompany transactions between the Company and its subsidiary, the First National Bank, are subject to restrictions of existing banking laws (such as Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act) and accepted principles of fair dealing. The Company can provide the Bank with advice and specialized services in the areas of accounting and taxation, budgeting and strategic planning, employee benefits and human resources, auditing, trust, and banking and corporate law. The Company may elect to charge a fee for these services from time to time. The responsibility for the management of the Bank, however, remains with its board of directors and with the officers elected by the Bank’s board. See “Supervision and Regulation,” below.

Expansion Strategy and Subsidiaries

The Company, through the Bank, will continue to focus on expansion through internal organic growth. However, the Company becomes aware from time to time of opportunities for growth through acquisition. The Company’s philosophy in considering such a transaction is to evaluate the acquisition for its potential to bolster the Company’s presence in its chosen markets as well as for long-term profitability. Ultimately, the purpose of any such acquisition should be to enhance long-term shareholder value. Presently, there are no ongoing discussions that should be disclosed pursuant to federal or state securities laws.

Cautionary Warning Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

In this report and in documents incorporated herein by reference, the Company may communicate statements relating to the future results of the Company that may be considered “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company’s actual results may differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by the words “believe, expect, anticipate, intend, estimate” and similar expressions. These statements may relate to, among other things, loan loss reserve adequacy, simulation of changes in interest rates and litigation results. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied as a result of certain risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, social, political and economic conditions, interest rate fluctuations, competition for loans, mortgages, and other financial services and products, changes in interest rates, unforeseen changes in liquidity, results of operations, and financial conditions affecting the Company’s customers, as well as other risks that cannot be accurately quantified or definitively identified. Many factors affecting the Company’s financial condition and profitability, including changes in economic conditions, the volatility of interest rates, political events, equity and fixed income market fluctuations, personal and corporate customers’ bankruptcies, inflation, technological change, changes in law, changes in fiscal, monetary, regulatory and tax policies, monetary fluctuations, success in gaining regulatory approvals when required as well as other risks and uncertainties and competition from other providers of financial services simply cannot be predicted. Because these factors are unpredictable and beyond the Company’s control, earnings may fluctuate from period to period. The purpose of this type of information (such as in Item 6 and Item 7, as well as other portions of this Report) is to provide readers of this Report with information relevant to understanding and assessing the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and not to predict the

Table of Contents

future or to guarantee results. The Company undertakes no obligation to publish revised forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of changes, new developments, or of unanticipated events, circumstances, or results.

Supervision and Regulation

The commercial banking business is highly regulated. The following discussion contains a summary of the material aspects of the regulatory framework applicable to bank holding companies and their subsidiaries, and provides certain specific information about the Company. The bank regulatory framework is intended primarily for the protection of depositors, the deposit insurance system, and the banking system, and not for the protection of shareholders or any other group. In addition, certain present or potential activities of the Company and the Bank are subject to various securities and insurance laws and are regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Tennessee Department of Commerce and Insurance. To the extent that the following information describes statutory and regulatory provisions, it is qualified in its entirety by express reference to each of the particular statutory and regulatory provisions. A change in applicable statutes, regulations or regulatory policy may have a material and unpredictable effect on the business of the Company.

General

First McMinnville Corporation The Company is registered as a bank holding company with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“Federal Reserve Board”). The Company is subject to comprehensive examination, regulation and supervision by the Federal Reserve Board under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. The Company is required to file annual reports and such additional information as the Federal Reserve Board may require pursuant to the Bank Holding Company Act with the Federal Reserve Board. The Company is also subject to Tennessee regulations.

The Bank Holding Company Act permits the Federal Reserve Board to approve an application by a bank holding company to acquire a bank located outside the acquirer’s principal state of operations without regard to whether the transaction is prohibited under state law.

The Company is also a bank holding company within the meaning of T.C.A. §45-2-1401 of the Tennessee Banking Act. As such, the Company and its subsidiaries could be subject to examination by, and could be required to file reports with, the Tennessee Department of Financial Institutions under specified circumstances. Effective September 29, 1995, the Tennessee Bank Structure Act of 1974 was amended to, among other things, prohibit (subject to certain exceptions) a bank holding company from acquiring a bank for which the home state is Tennessee (a Tennessee bank) if, upon consummation, the company would directly or indirectly control 30% or more of the total deposits in insured depository institutions in Tennessee. As of June 30, 2004, the Company estimates that it held less than 1% of such deposits. Subject to certain exceptions, the Tennessee Bank Structure Act prohibits a bank holding company from acquiring a bank in Tennessee which has been in operation for less than three years. Tennessee

Table of Contents

law permits a Tennessee bank to establish branches in any county in Tennessee and national banks can do likewise.

The Company’s common stock is registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act. As a result, the Company is required to file quarterly, annual and other types of reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act. The Company is subject to the information, proxy solicitation, and other requirements and restrictions of the Exchange Act.

The First National Bank of McMinnville. The Company’s subsidiary Bank is subject to comprehensive supervision and examination by the OCC and, to some extent, by other federal agencies. The Bank is chartered under the National Bank Act and it is a member of the Federal Reserve System. All national banks, and all subsidiary banks of a bank holding company, must become and remain insured banks under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. (See 12 U.S.C. § 1811, et seq.) The Bank is also subject to various requirements and restrictions under federal and state law, including requirements to maintain reserves against deposits, restrictions on the types and amounts of loans that may be granted and the interest that may be charged thereon and limitations on the types of investments that may be made, activities that may be engaged in, and types of services that may be offered. The operations of the Bank are also affected by various consumer laws and regulations, including those relating to equal credit opportunity, truth in savings disclosures, debt collection laws, privacy regulations, and regulation of consumer lending practices. In addition to the impact of direct regulation, commercial banks are affected significantly by the actions of the Federal Reserve Board as it attempts to control the money supply and credit availability in order to influence the economy.

Strict compliance at all times with state and federal banking laws, as well as other laws, is and will continue to be required. The Bank believes that the experience of its executive management will assist it in its continuing efforts to achieve the requisite level of compliance. Certain provisions of Tennessee law may be preempted by existing and future federal laws, rules and regulations and no prediction can be made as to the impact of preemption on Tennessee law or the regulation of the Bank thereunder.

Payment of Dividends

The Company is a legal entity separate and distinct from its banking subsidiary. The principal source of cash flow of the Company, including cash flow to pay dividends on its stock, is dividends from the Bank. There are statutory, regulatory and prudential limitations on the payment of dividends by the Bank to the Company, as well as by the Company to its shareholders. The Company declared dividends of $1.75 per share in 2004, compared to $1.70 per share in 2003 and $1.60 per share in 2002.

Federal law restricts the timing and amount of dividends that may be paid by the Bank. The Bank, as a national bank, is required by federal law to obtain the prior approval of the OCC for the payment of dividends if the total of all dividends declared by the board of directors of the Bank in any year will exceed the total of (i) its net profits (as defined and interpreted by regulation) for that

9


Table of Contents

year plus (ii) the retained net profits (as defined and interpreted by regulation) for the preceding two years, less any required transfers to surplus. A national bank also can pay dividends only to the extent that retained net profits (including the portion transferred to surplus) exceed bad debts (as defined by regulation). The payment of dividends by any financial institution subsidiary may also be affected by other factors, such as the critical requirement of the maintenance of adequate capital. Please refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and to Item 5 of this Report, “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters,” for additional information on dividends. See also the section of this Report entitled “Capital Adequacy.” Prior regulatory approval must be obtained before declaring any dividends if the amount of the Bank’s capital, and surplus is below certain statutory limits.

If, in the opinion of the applicable federal bank regulatory authority, a depository institution or a holding company is engaged in or is about to engage in an unsafe or unsound practice (which, depending on the financial condition of the depository institution or holding company, could include the payment of dividends), such authority may require that such institution or holding company cease and desist from such practice. The federal bank regulatory agencies have indicated that paying dividends that deplete a depository institution’s or holding company’s capital base to an inadequate level would be such an unsafe and unsound banking practice. Moreover, the OCC, the Federal Reserve Board, and the FDIC have issued policy statements which provide that bank holding companies and insured depository institutions generally should only pay dividends out of current operating earnings.

In addition, under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, an FDIC-insured depository institution may not make any capital distributions (including the payment of dividends) or pay any management fees to its holding company or pay any dividend if it is undercapitalized or if such payment would cause it to become undercapitalized.

Under Tennessee law, the Company is not permitted to pay dividends if, after giving effect to such payment, it would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business or if the Company’s total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus any amounts needed to satisfy any preferential rights if the Company were dissolving. It is presently anticipated that the Company will pay a cash dividend in 2005 consistent with past practices. However, the payment of dividends by the Company and the Bank may be affected or limited by other factors, such as the requirement to maintain adequate capital above regulatory guidelines and debt covenants. See “Capital Adequacy” and “Prompt Corrective Action.” Dividends will be paid only as the board of directors may determine from time to time in accordance with legal requirements and principles of safety and soundness.

Bank Holding Company Regulation

As a bank holding company subject to the Bank Holding Company Act, the Company must obtain prior Federal Reserve Board approval for bank acquisitions and is generally limited to engaging in banking or bank-related activities. The Company must obtain prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board before (1) acquiring, directly or indirectly (except in certain limited circumstances),

10


Table of Contents

ownership or control of more than 5% of the voting stock of a bank, (2) acquiring all or substantially all of the assets of a bank, or (3) merging or consolidating with another bank holding company. The Bank Holding Company Act also generally limits the business in which a bank holding company may engage to banking, managing or controlling banks, and furnishing or performing services for the banks that it controls. Interstate banking and interstate branching are now permitted.

The Company is subject to various legal restrictions on the extent to which it and any nonbank subsidiary that it might own or form in the future can borrow or otherwise obtain credit from the Bank. For example, the Company and the Bank are subject to limitations imposed by Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act with respect to extensions of credit to, investments in, and certain other transactions with any affiliate, including any transactions between the Bank and the Company. In general, these restrictions require that any such extensions of credit must be on non-preferential terms and secured by designated amounts of specified collateral and be limited, as to the holding company or any one of such nonbank subsidiaries, to 10% of the lending institution’s capital stock and surplus, and as to the holding company and all such nonbank subsidiaries in the aggregate, to 20% of such capital stock and surplus. Further, Section 23B of the Federal Reserve Act imposes restrictions on “non-credit” transactions between the Bank on the one hand and the Company (and “nonbank” bank holding company) affiliates on the other hand. On October 31, 2002, the Federal Reserve issued a new regulation that became effective on April 1, 2003. The Federal Reserve Board’s“Regulation W” is intended to comprehensively implement sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act and to protect insured depository institutions from incurring losses arising from transactions with affiliates.

The regulation unifies and updates staff interpretations issued over many years, and it incorporates several new interpretative proposals. Among other things, Regulation W is supposed to clarify when transactions with an unrelated third party will be attributed to an affiliate. The regulation also addresses new issues arising as a result of the expanded scope of nonbanking activities engaged in by bank and bank holding companies in recent years and authorized for financial holding companies under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act.

The Federal Reserve Board may require that a bank holding company terminate an activity or terminate control of or liquidate or divest certain subsidiaries or affiliates when the Federal Reserve Board believes the activity or the control of the subsidiary or affiliate constitutes a significant risk to the financial safety, soundness or stability of any of its banking subsidiaries. The Federal Reserve Board also has the authority to regulate provisions of certain bank holding company debt, including authority to impose interest ceilings and reserve requirements on such debt. Under certain circumstances, a bank holding company must file written notice and obtain approval from the Federal Reserve Board prior to purchasing or redeeming its equity securities.

Eligible bank holding companies that elect to become financial holding companies may affiliate with securities firms and insurance companies and engage in activities that are financial in nature generally without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board. See “Financial Services Modernization Act.” The Company has not elected to become a financial holding company but believes that it is eligible to do so.

Table of Contents

Under Federal Reserve Board regulations, a bank holding company is required to serve as a source of financial and managerial strength to its subsidiary banks and may not conduct its operations in an unsafe or unsound manner. (This is discussed in the context of “Cross-Guarantee Liability.”) In addition, it is the Federal Reserve Board’s policy that in serving as a source of strength to its subsidiary banks, a bank holding company should stand ready to use available resources to provide adequate capital funds to its subsidiary banks during periods of financial stress or adversity and should maintain the financial flexibility and capital-raising capacity to obtain additional resources for assisting its subsidiary banks. A bank holding company’s failure to meet its obligations to serve as a source of strength to its subsidiary banks will generally be considered by the Federal Reserve Board to be an unsafe and unsound banking practice or a violation of the Federal Reserve Board’s regulations or both.

Bank holding companies within the meaning of T.C.A. §45-2-1401 of the Tennessee Banking Act are also subject to regulation under that Tennessee Act. As such, a bank holding company and its subsidiaries could be subject to examination by, and could be required to file reports with, the TDFI under specified circumstances.

In late 1995, the Tennessee Bank Structure Act of 1974 was amended to, among other things, prohibit (subject to certain exceptions) a bank holding company from acquiring a bank for which the home state is Tennessee (a Tennessee bank) if, upon consummation, the company would directly or indirectly control 30% or more of the total deposits in insured depository institutions in Tennessee. Based on information published by the FDIC as of June 30, 2004, the Company estimates that it held less than one percent of such deposits. Subject to certain exceptions, the Tennessee Bank Structure Act prohibits a bank holding company from acquiring a bank in Tennessee which has been in operation for less than three years. Tennessee law permits a Tennessee bank to establish branches in any county in Tennessee.

Source of Financial Strength. Under Federal Reserve Board policy, the Company is expected to act as a source of financial strength to, and to commit resources to support, the Bank. This support may be required at times when, absent such Federal Reserve Board policy, the Company may not be inclined to provide it. In addition, any capital loans by a bank holding company to the Bank are subordinate in right of payment to deposits and to certain other indebtedness of such subsidiary bank. In the event of a bank holding company’s bankruptcy, any commitment by the bank holding company to a federal bank regulatory agency to maintain the capital of a subsidiary bank will be assumed by the bankruptcy trustee and entitled to a priority of payment. Moreover, as a shareholder the Company would probably rank low in recipients in the event that the Bank were liquidated. Depositors of a bank, and the FDIC as their subrogee, would likely be entitled to priority over creditors of the Bank, including the Company, in the event of a liquidation of the Bank.

Cross-Guarantee Liability. Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, a depository institution insured by the FDIC can be held liable for any loss incurred by, or reasonably expected to be incurred by, the FDIC after August 9, 1989 in connection with (i) the default of a commonly controlled FDIC-insured depository institution or (ii) any assistance provided by the FDIC to any commonly controlled FDIC-insured depository institution in danger of default. Default is defined generally as

12


Table of Contents

the appointment of a conservator or receiver and in danger of default is defined generally as the existence of certain conditions indicating that a default is likely to occur in the absence of regulatory assistance. The FDIC’s claim for damages is superior to claims of shareholders of the insured depository institution or its holding company but is subordinate to claims of depositors, secured creditors and holders of subordinated debt (other than affiliates) of the commonly controlled insured depository institution. The Company and the Bank are subject to these cross-guarantee provisions. As a result, any loss suffered by the FDIC in respect of any of the Bank would likely result in assertion of the cross-guarantee provisions and the assessment of such estimated losses against the Company.

Interstate Banking and Branching. The Bank Holding Company Act permits bank holding companies from any state to acquire banks and bank holding companies located in any other state, subject to certain conditions, including certain nationwide- and state-imposed deposit concentration limits. The Company and the Bank will have the ability, subject to certain restrictions, to acquire by acquisition or merger branches outside its home state. The establishment of new interstate branches is also possible in those states with laws that expressly permit it. Interstate branches are subject to certain laws of the states in which they are located. Competition may increase further as banks branch across state lines and enter new markets.

National Bank Act Regulation

First National Bank is chartered as a national banking association under the banking laws of the United States. As such, the Bank is subject to a myriad of federal and state banking and corporate laws, and to comprehensive supervision, regulation and examination by the OCC, although such regulation and examination is for the protection of the banking system and the deposit insurance fund managed by the FDIC and not for the protection of shareholders or any other investors. The OCC is the Bank’s primary federal regulator. It is intended that the Bank’s deposit accounts will always be insured up to legally prescribed limits by the FDIC. The Bank files and will continue to be required to file reports with the OCC concerning its activities and financial condition, in addition to obtaining regulatory approvals prior to consummating certain transactions, including branching, mergers or acquisitions. A variety of laws serves to limit the amount of dividends payable by the Bank. See “Payment of Dividends.”

The deposits of the Bank are insured to a maximum of $100,000 per depositor, subject to certain aggregation rules that can have the effect of limiting the amount of deposit insurance coverage. The FDIC establishes rates for the payment of premiums by federally insured banks and thrifts for deposit insurance. Separate insurance funds (the Bank Insurance Fund, and the Savings Association Insurance Fund), are maintained for commercial banks and thrifts, with insurance premiums from the industry used to offset losses from insurance payouts when banks and thrifts fail. The Bank’s deposits are insured under the Bank Insurance Fund. The FDIC has adopted a risk-based deposit insurance premium system for all insured depository institutions, including the Bank, which requires that a depository institution pay a premium for deposit insurance on insured deposits depending on its capital levels and risk profile, as determined by its primary federal regulator on a semi-annual basis.

National banking statutes regulate a variety of the banking activities of the Bank including required reserves, permitted investments, loans, mergers and share exchanges, issuance of securities, payment of dividends, and establishment of branches. Under federal law, a national bank is prohibited from lending to any one person, firm or corporation amounts more than a specified percentage of its equity capital accounts, with very limited exceptions. The Bank must obtain the prior approval of the OCC for a variety of matters. These include branching, relocations, mergers, acquisitions, charter amendments, and other matters. State and federal statutes and regulations also relate to many aspects of the Banks’ operations, including reserves against deposits, ownership of deposit accounts, interest rates payable on deposits and chargeable as interest on loans, investments, mergers and acquisitions, borrowings, dividends, locations of branch offices, and capital requirements. Further, the Bank is required to maintain certain levels of capital. See “Capital Adequacy.”

Capital Adequacy

The Federal Reserve Board has adopted risk-based capital guidelines for bank holding companies. The minimum guideline for the ratio of total capital (Total Capital) to risk-weighted assets (including certain off-balance-sheet items, such as standby letters of credit) is 8%, and the minimum ratio of Tier 1 Capital (defined below) to risk-weighted assets is 4%. At least half of the Total Capital must be composed of common stock, minority interests in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and a limited amount of cumulative perpetual preferred stock, less goodwill and certain other intangible assets (Tier 1 Capital). The remainder may consist of qualifying subordinated debt, certain types of mandatory convertible securities and perpetual debt, other preferred stock and a limited amount of loan loss reserves.

In addition, the Federal Reserve Board has established minimum leverage ratio guidelines for bank holding companies. These guidelines provide for a minimum ratio of Tier 1 Capital to quarterly average assets, less goodwill and certain other intangible assets (the Leverage Ratio), of 4% for bank holding companies that meet certain specific criteria, including having the highest regulatory rating. All other bank holding companies generally are required to maintain a Leverage Ratio of at least 4%, plus an additional cushion of 100 to 200 basis points. The guidelines also provide that bank holding companies experiencing internal growth or making acquisitions will be expected to maintain strong capital positions substantially above the minimum supervisory levels without significant reliance on intangible assets. Furthermore, the Federal Reserve Board has indicated that it will consider a tangible Tier 1 Capital leverage ratio (deducting all intangibles) and other indicia of capital strength in evaluating proposals for expansion or new activities.

At December 31, 2004, the Company’s consolidated Tier 1 Capital, Total Capital, and Leverage Ratios, together with the well-capitalized and minimum permissible levels, were as follows:

*See “Prompt Corrective Action” below.

Please refer to Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Item 8 of this Report) for additional information concerning the Company’s consolidated capital position.

The Federal Reserve Board, the FDIC and the OCC have adopted rules to incorporate market and interest-rate risk components into their risk-based capital standards and that explicitly identify concentration of credit risk and certain risks arising from non-traditional activities, and the management of such risks, as important factors to consider in assessing an institution’s overall capital adequacy. Under the market risk requirements, capital is allocated to support the amount of market risk related to a financial institution’s ongoing trading activities for banks with relatively large trading activities. Institutions will be able to satisfy this additional requirement, in part, by issuing short-term subordinated debt that qualifies as Tier 3 capital. The Company is not required to make any allocation of capital under these rules.

The Bank is also subject to risk-based and leverage capital requirements similar to those described above adopted by the OCC. The Company believes that the Bank was in compliance with applicable minimum capital requirements as of December 31, 2004.

Failure to meet capital guidelines could subject a bank to a variety of enforcement remedies, including the termination of deposit insurance by the FDIC, and to certain restrictions on its business and in certain circumstances to the appointment of a conservator or receiver. See “Prompt Corrective Action.”

The federal regulators continue to study and to propose changes to the capital requirements applicable to the Company and First National Bank. For example, in 2001 the federal banking regulators issued regulations to establish special minimum capital requirements for equity investments in nonfinancial companies (defined as companies not previously determined to be financial in nature by the federal banking regulators) and the impact of such investments on a financial institution’s Tier 1 capital. These regulations became effective on April 1, 2002. On April 9, 2002, federal banking agencies issued a final rule amending their risk-based capital standards for banks, bank holding companies and savings associations (institutions) to reduce the risk weight applied to claims on, or guaranteed by, qualifying securities firms.

15


Table of Contents

The rule became effective on July 1, 2002, although financial institutions had the opportunity to being applying it upon adoption. The Company does not anticipate that these changes will adversely affect the Company or the Bank.

As noted in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2003, some of the developments related to capital are international in scope. We noted that on January 16, 2001, the Basel Committee proposed its second draft of a new capital adequacy framework. The new capital framework would consist of minimum capital requirements, a supervisory review process and the effective use of market discipline. The Basel Committee has now issued its revised “Framework” and that document is being incorporated into federal capital adequacy standards. The supervisory review aspect of the Basel framework would seek to ensure that a bank’s capital position is consistent with its overall risk profile and strategy. The supervisory review process would also encourage early supervisory intervention when a bank’s capital position deteriorates. The third aspect of the new framework, market discipline, would call for detailed disclosure of a bank’s capital adequacy in order to encourage high disclosure standards and to enhance the role of market participants in encouraging banks to hold adequate capital. Banks must also disclose how they evaluate their own capital adequacy. The Company does not anticipate that these changes will adversely affect the Company or the Bank. The Company believes that is capital position is adequate and that it meets all federal capital standards applicable to it and to the Bank. See “Capital Adequacy Developments.”

Please refer to Items 7 and 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, especially Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, for additional information about the Company’s and First National Bank’s respective capital positions.

Prompt Corrective Action

The Federal Deposit Insurance Act requires, among other things, that the federal banking regulators take prompt corrective action with respect to FDIC-insured depository institutions that do not meet minimum capital requirements. Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, insured depository institutions are divided into five capital tiers: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized. Under applicable regulations, an institution is defined to be well capitalized if it maintains a Leverage Ratio of at least 5%, a Tier 1 Capital ratio of at least 6% and a Total Capital ratio of at least 10% and is not subject to a directive, order or written agreement to meet and maintain specific capital levels. An institution is defined to be adequately capitalized if it meets all of its minimum capital requirements as described above. An institution will be considered undercapitalized if it fails to meet any minimum required measure, significantly undercapitalized if it has a Total Risk-Based Capital ratio of less than 6%, a Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital ratio of less than 3% or a Leverage Ratio of less than 3% and critically undercapitalized if it fails to maintain a level of tangible equity equal to at least 2% of total assets. An institution may be deemed to be in a capitalization category that is lower than is indicated by its actual capital position if it receives an unsatisfactory examination rating.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Act generally prohibits an FDIC-insured depository institution from making any capital distribution (including payment of dividends) or paying any management fee to

16


Table of Contents

its holding company if the depository institution would thereafter be undercapitalized. Undercapitalized depository institutions are subject to restrictions on borrowing from the Federal Reserve System. In addition, undercapitalized depository institutions are subject to growth limitations and are required to submit capital restoration plans. An insured depository institution’s holding company must guarantee the capital plan, up to an amount equal to the lesser of 5% of the depository institution’s assets at the time it becomes undercapitalized or the amount of the capital deficiency when the institution fails to comply with the plan, for the plan to be accepted by the applicable federal regulatory authority. The federal banking agencies may not accept a capital plan without determining, among other things, that the plan is based on realistic assumptions and is likely to succeed in restoring the depository institution’s capital. If a depository institution fails to submit an acceptable plan, it is treated as if it is significantly undercapitalized.

Significantly undercapitalized depository institutions may be subject to a number of requirements and restrictions, including orders to sell sufficient voting stock to become adequately capitalized, requirements to reduce total assets and cessation of receipt of deposits from correspondent banks. Critically undercapitalized depository institutions are subject to appointment of a receiver or conservator, generally within ninety days of the date on which they become critically undercapitalized.

The Company believes that the Bank, as of December 31, 2004, had sufficient capital to qualify as “well capitalized” under applicable regulatory capital requirements. Please refer to Items 7 and 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, especially Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, for additional information about the Company’s and First National Bank’s respective capital positions.

General Regulatory Considerations

Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act (“FDICIA”), all insured institutions must undergo regular on-site examination by their appropriate banking agency. The cost of examinations of insured depository institutions and any affiliates may be assessed by the appropriate agency against each institution or affiliate as it deems necessary or appropriate. Insured institutions are required to submit annual reports to the FDIC and the appropriate agency (and state supervisor when applicable). FDICIA also directs the FDIC to develop with other appropriate agencies a method for insured depository institutions to provide supplemental disclosure of the estimated fair market value of assets and liabilities, to the extent feasible and practicable, in any balance sheet, financial statement, report of condition or any other report of any insured depository institution. FDICIA also requires the federal banking regulatory agencies to prescribe, by regulation, standards for all insured depository institutions and depository institution holding companies relating, among other things, to: (i) internal controls, information systems and audit systems; (ii) loan documentation; (iii) credit underwriting; (iv) interest rate risk exposure; and (v) asset quality.

In response to perceived needs in financial institution regulation, Congress enacted the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989. That statute, called FIRREA, provides that a depository institution insured by the FDIC can be held liable for any loss incurred by, or

17


Table of Contents

reasonably expected to be incurred by, the FDIC after August 9, 1989 in connection with (i) the default of a commonly controlled FDIC insured depository institution or (ii) any assistance provided by the FDIC to a commonly controlled FDIC insured depository institution in danger of default. FIRREA provides that certain types of persons affiliated with financial institutions can be fined by the federal regulatory agency having jurisdiction over a depository institution with federal deposit insurance (such as the Bank) could be fined up to $1 million per day for each violation of certain regulations related (primarily) to lending to and transactions with executive officers, directors, and principal shareholders, including the interests of these individuals. Other violations may result in civil money penalties of $5,000 to $25,000 per day or in criminal fines and penalties. In addition, the FDIC has been granted enhanced authority to withdraw or to suspend deposit insurance in certain cases. The banking regulators have not been reluctant to use the new enforcement authorities provided under FIRREA. Further, regulators have broad power to issue cease and desist orders that may, among other things, require affirmative action to correct any harm resulting from a violation or practice, including restitution, reimbursement, indemnifications or guarantees against loss. A financial institution may also be ordered to restrict its growth, dispose of certain assets, rescind agreements or contracts or take other actions as determined by the ordering agency to be appropriate.

The Bank is subject to certain restrictions on extensions of credit to executive officers, directors, certain principal stockholders and their related interests. Such extensions of credit (i) must be made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with third parties and (ii) must not involve more than the normal risk of repayment or present other unfavorable features.

The Community Reinvestment Act

The federal law known as the Community Reinvestment Act requires that each insured depository institution shall be evaluated by its primary federal regulator with respect to its record in meeting the credit needs of its local community, including low and moderate income neighborhoods, consistent with the safe and sound operation of those institutions. These factors are also considered in evaluating mergers, acquisitions and applications to open a branch or facility.

A bank’s compliance with its CRA obligations is based on a performance- based evaluation system which bases CRA ratings on an institution’s lending service and investment performance. When a bank holding company applies for approval to acquire a bank or other bank holding company, the Federal Reserve Board will review the assessment of each subsidiary bank of the applicant bank holding company, and such records may be the basis for denying the application. In connection with its assessment of CRA performance, the appropriate bank regulatory agency assigns a rating of “outstanding,” “satisfactory,” “needs to improve” or “substantial noncompliance.” As of its most recent CRA examination, conducted in 1999, the Bank was rated at least “satisfactory.”

Safety and Soundness Standards

The federal banking agencies have adopted guidelines designed to assist the federal banking agencies in identifying and addressing potential safety and soundness concerns before capital

18


Table of Contents

becomes impaired. The guidelines set forth operational and managerial standards relating to: (i) internal controls, information systems and internal audit systems, (ii) loan documentation, (iii) credit underwriting, (iv) asset growth, (v) earnings, and (vi) compensation, fees and benefits. In addition, the federal banking agencies have also adopted safety and soundness guidelines with respect to asset quality and earnings standards. These guidelines provide six standards for establishing and maintaining a system to identify problem assets and prevent those assets from deteriorating. Under these standards, an insured depository institution should: (i) conduct periodic asset quality reviews to identify problem assets, (ii) estimate the inherent losses in problem assets and establish reserves that are sufficient to absorb estimated losses, (iii) compare problem asset totals to capital, (iv) take appropriate corrective action to resolve problem assets, (v) consider the size and potential risks of material asset concentrations, and (vi) provide periodic asset quality reports with adequate information for management and the board of directors to assess the level of asset risk. These guidelines also set forth standards for evaluating and monitoring earnings and for ensuring that earnings are sufficient for the maintenance of adequate capital and reserves.

Capital Adequacy Developments

In June of 2004, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision released its document entitled “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards: A Revised Framework.” This framework is customarily referred to as “Basel II.” It represents the work of the Basel Committee, in which American bank and thrift regulatory agencies have actively participated. The goal of Basel II is to improve the consistency of capital regulations internationally, to make regulatory capital more risk sensitive, and to promote enhanced risk-management practices among large, internationally active banking organizations.

Based on the issuance by the Basel Committee, the federal agencies have begun to develop proposed changes in their existing risk-based capital adequacy regulations. The regulators anticipate that a small number of large, internationally active U.S. banking institutions would actually be mandated to apply Basel II at this time. Those organizations would use only the most advanced approaches for determining their risk-based capital requirements. Other American financial institutions would have the option to use, or not use, the advanced approaches. Notwithstanding Basel I, American banking institutions continue to be subject to the leverage capital ratio requirement under existing regulations. The “Prompt Corrective Action” requirements remain in effect as well. See “Prompt Corrective Action.”

The federal regulators have announced that they have developed a comprehensive plan to incorporate the advanced risk and capital measurement methodologies of Basel II into their regulations and supervisory guidance applicable to U.S. Banks. This plan is expected to ensure that U.S. implementation efforts are consistent with the expectations of Basel II.

In November of 2004, the federal banking agencies began a survey concerning Basel II. The survey is intended to provide the agencies a better understanding of how the implementation of a more risk-sensitive approach for regulatory capital standards might affect minimum required capital at the industry, institution, and portfolio level. The survey is also intended to provide insight, based on

19


Table of Contents

detailed “loss event data,” into various implications of the proposed Basel II standards that should assist the regulators in evaluating operational risk.

The Agencies anticipate that a notice of proposed rulemaking on possible revisions to risk-based capital adequacy regulations relating to Basel II will be published in mid-2005. Implementation is expected in the second quarter of 2006. Possible changes to capital regulations for U.S. banking organizations not subject to the Basel II-based regulations are to be considered and addressed in this same general time.

Basel II is not expected to have any immediate impact on the Company or on First National Bank. However, any developments related to capital adequacy can eventually have an impact on the Company and the Bank.

Financial Services Modernization Act

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (the “Financial Services Modernization Act”) became law on November 12, 1999. The Financial Services Modernization Act repeals the two affiliation provisions of the Glass-Steagall Act: Section 20, which restricted the affiliation of Federal Reserve Member Banks with firms “engaged principally” in specified securities activities; and Section 32, which restricts officer, director, or employee interlocks between a member bank and any company or person “primarily engaged” in specified securities activities. In addition, the Financial Services Modernization Act also contains provisions that expressly preempt any state law restricting the establishment of financial affiliations, primarily related to insurance. The general intent of the law is to establish a comprehensive framework to permit affiliations among commercial banks, insurance companies, securities firms, and other financial service providers by revising and expanding the Bank Holding Company Act framework to permit a holding company system to engage in a full range of financial activities through a new entity known as a Financial Holding Company. The term “financial activities” is broadly defined to include not only banking, insurance, and securities activities, but also merchant banking and additional activities that the Federal Reserve Board, in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury, determines to be financial in nature, incidental to such financial activities, or complementary activities that do not pose a substantial risk to the safety and soundness of depository institutions or the financial system generally. The Financial Services Modernization Act is also known as the “Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999.”

The Company does not believe that the Financial Services Modernization Act will have a material adverse effect on its operations in the near-term. However, to the extent that it permits banks, securities firms, and insurance companies to affiliate, the financial services industry may experience further consolidation. As a result, the Company may find that it is compelled to compete with even larger and more diversified financial institutions than is currently the case. The Financial Services Modernization Act is intended to grant to community banks certain powers as a matter of right that larger institutions have accumulated on an ad hoc basis. Nevertheless, this new law may have the result of increasing the amount of competition that the Company and the Bank face from larger institutions and other types of companies offering financial products, many of which may have substantially more financial resources than the Company or the Bank. The Company cannot predict

20


Table of Contents

the potential effect that the Act will have on its business and operations, although the Company expects that the general effect of the Act will be to increase competition, and possibly to encourage further consolidation, in the financial services industry generally.

U.S.A. Patriot Act

After the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, Congress enacted broad anti-terrorism legislation called the “United and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001,” which is generally known as the “USA Patriot Act.” Title III of the USA Patriot Act requires financial institutions, including the Company and First National Bank, to help prevent, detect and prosecute international money laundering and the financing of terrorism. The Department of the Treasury has adopted additional requirements to further implement Title III.

The law is intended to enhance the powers of the federal government and law enforcement organizations to combat terrorism, organized crime and money laundering. The USA Patriot Act materially amended and expanded the application of the existing Bank Secrecy Act. It provided enhanced measures regarding customer identity, new suspicious activity reporting rules and enhanced anti-money laundering programs. Under the Act, each financial institution is required to establish and maintain anti-money laundering compliance and due diligence programs, which include, at a minimum, the development of internal policies, procedures, and controls; the designation of a compliance officer; an ongoing employee training program; and an independent audit function to test programs. In addition, the USA Patriot Act requires federal bank regulatory agencies to consider the record of a bank or bank holding company in combating money laundering activities in their evaluation of bank and bank holding company merger or acquisition transactions.

The federal Treasury Department issued regulations under the USA Patriot Act. The regulations state that a depository institution will be deemed in compliance with the Act provided it continues to comply with the current Bank Secrecy Act regulations. Under these regulations, a mechanism has been established for law enforcement to communicate names of suspected terrorists and money launderers to financial institutions, in return for securing the ability to promptly locate accounts and transactions involving those suspects. Financial institutions receiving names of suspects must search their account and transaction records for potential matches and report positive results to the Treasurer’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”). Each financial institution must designate a point of contact to receive information requests. These regulations outline how financial institutions can share information concerning suspected terrorist and money laundering activity with other financial institutions under the protection from the statutory safe harbor from liability, provided each financial institution notifies FinCEN of its intent to share information.

The Department of the Treasury has also adopted regulations intended to prevent money laundering and terrorist financing through correspondent accounts maintained by U.S. financial institutions on behalf of foreign banks. Financial institutions are required to take reasonable steps to ensure that they are not providing banking services directly or indirectly to foreign shell banks.

The Company and the Bank believe that their systems and procedures accomplish compliance with these requirements. This law and the related regulations impose come continuing costs on the Company and the Bank but they believe that the cost is not likely to be material to them.

Competition

The commercial banking business is highly competitive and the Company competes actively with national and state banks and bank holding company organizations for deposits, loans and trust accounts, and with savings and loan associations and credit unions for deposits and loans. In addition, the Company competes with other financial institutions, including securities brokers and dealers, personal loan companies, insurance companies, finance companies, leasing companies and certain governmental agencies, all of which actively engage in marketing various types of loans, deposit accounts and other services. For example, may of the Company’s competitors are affiliated with large bank holding company systems that have greater financial and other resources than the Company. The deregulation of depository institutions, as well as the increased ability of nonbanking financial institutions to provide services previously reserved for commercial banks, has intensified competition. Because nonbanking financial institutions are not subject to the same regulatory restrictions as banks and bank holding companies, in many instances they may operate with greater flexibility because they may not be subject to the same types of regulatory applications and processes as are the Company or the Bank.

The principal geographic area of the Company’s operations encompasses Warren County, Tennessee, and surrounding areas of Tennessee. In this area, there are many commercial banks and other financial institutions operating eighteen offices and branches (exclusive of free-standing ATM’s) and holding an aggregate of approximately $570 million in deposits as of approximately June 30, 2004, of which approximately 40.3% are held by the Bank (based on data published by the FDIC). The Company competes with some of the largest bank holding companies in Tennessee, which have or control businesses, banks or branches in the area, including national and regional financial institutions, as well as with a variety of other banks, financial institutions, and financial services companies.

To compete with major financial institutions in its service area, the Company relies, in part, on specialized services, on a high level of personalized service and intensive customer-oriented services, local promotional activity, and personal contacts with customers by its officers, directors, and employees. For customers whose loan demands exceed the Bank’s lending limit, the Bank seeks to arrange for loans on a participation basis with correspondent banks. The Bank also assists customers requiring services not offered by the Bank in obtaining those services from its correspondent banks or other sources. Due to the intense competition in the financial industry, the Company makes no representation that its competitive position has remained constant, nor can it predict whether its position will change in the future.

Specific reference is made to the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation section contained in Item 7 of this Report.

Personnel

At year-end 2004, the Bank employed a staff of sixty-two full-time and eleven part-time persons, not including contract labor for certain services. None of these employees is covered by a collective-bargaining agreement. Group life, health, dental, and disability insurance are maintained for or made available to employees by the Bank, as is a 401(k) profit-sharing plan adopted by the Bank as are certain benefit plans (described elsewhere herein) adopted by the Bank. The Company considers employee relations to be satisfactory.

Economic Conditions and Governmental Policy; Laws and Regulations

The Company’s profitability, like most financial institutions, is primarily dependent on interest rate differentials and non-interest income. In general, the difference between the interest rates paid by the Bank on interest-bearing liabilities, such as deposits and other borrowings, and the interest rates received by the Bank on its interest-earning assets, such as loans extended to its borrowers, together with securities held in its investment portfolio, comprise the major portion of the Bank’s earnings. These rates are highly sensitive to many factors that are beyond the control of the Bank, such as inflation, recession and unemployment, and the impact which future changes in domestic and even in foreign economic conditions might have on the Bank cannot be predicted by the Bank or the Company.

The Company’s earnings are affected not only by the extensive regulation described above, but also by general economic conditions. These economic conditions influence, and are themselves influenced, by the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States government and its various agencies, particularly the Federal Reserve Board. An important function of the Federal Reserve System is to regulate the national money supply. The Federal Reserve Board implements national monetary policies (with objectives such as addressing inflationary and recessionary pressures) through its open- market operations in U.S. Government securities by adjusting the required level of reserves for depository institutions subject to its reserve requirements, and by varying the target federal funds and discount rates applicable to borrowings by depository institutions. The actions of the Federal Reserve Board in these areas influence the growth of bank loans, investments, and deposits and also affect interest rates earned on interest-earning assets and paid on interest-bearing liabilities. As described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation, changes in interest rates effected by the Federal Reserve Board can have a material impact on the Company and the Bank. For example, the impact can be to narrow the Bank’s net interest margin (the difference between what the Bank pays for deposits and what the Bank charges for loans), thus adversely affecting earnings. The nature and impact on the Company of any future changes in monetary and fiscal policies cannot be predicted.

The Company and the Bank are also affected by the supervisory activities and regulatory policies of various bank regulatory authorities, including the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the

23


Table of Contents

FDIC, and the Federal Reserve Board. Regulatory policies, examinations and initiatives impose costs on both the Company and the Bank and influence their governance and operations.

From time to time, legislative acts, as well as regulations, are enacted which have the effect of increasing the cost of doing business, limiting or expanding permissible activities, or affecting the competitive balance between banks and other financial services providers. Proposals to change the laws and regulations governing the operations and taxation of banks, bank holding companies, and other financial institutions and financial services providers are frequently made in the federal Congress, in the state legislatures, and before various regulatory agencies. Please refer to “Item 1. Business – Supervision and Regulation.”

Environmental Matters

The Company is subject to various federal, state and local statutes and ordinances regulating the discharge of materials into the environment. The Company does not believe that it will be required to expend any material amounts in order to comply with these laws and regulations by virtue of its and the Company’s activities. However, such laws may from time to time affect the Company in the context of lending activities to borrowers who may themselves engage in activities or encounter circumstances in which the environmental laws, rules, and regulations are implicated.

Research

The Company makes no material expenditures for research and development.

Dependence Upon a Single Customer

The Company’s principal customers are generally located in the Southern Middle Tennessee area with a concentration in Warren County, Tennessee. The Company is not dependent upon a single customer or a very few customers. However, a substantial percentage of the Company’s total loans is secured by the assets of various businesses engaged in the nursery business, and by real estate, most of which property is located in or around Warren County, Tennessee. Accordingly, the Company has a significant concentration of credit that is dependent, under certain circumstances, on the continuing strength of the local nursery and real estate markets.

Line of Business

The Company’s principal business is the ownership of the stock of the First National Bank of McMinnville. The Bank operates under the National Bank Act and the Federal Deposit Insurance Act in the area of finance. The Company and the Bank derived 100% of their consolidated total operating income from the commercial banking business in 2004.

Factors That May Affect Future Results of Operation

24


Table of Contents

In addition to the other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the following risks may affect the Company. If any of these risks occurs, the Company’s business, financial condition or operating results could be adversely affected.

The Company’s financial performance and profitability will depend on its ability to execute its corporate growth strategy and to manage recent and anticipated future growth. The Company’s success and profitability depend on the Company’s ability to maintain profitable operations through continued implementation of the Company’s community banking philosophy which emphasizes personal service and customer attention.

Changes in market interest rates may adversely affect the Company’s performance. For instance, the Company’s earnings are affected by changing interest rates. Changes in interest rates affect the demand for new loans, the credit profile of existing loans, the rates received on loans and securities and rates paid on deposits and borrowings. The relationship between the rates received on loans and securities and the rates paid on deposits and borrowings is known as interest rate spread. Given the Company’s current volume and mix of interest-bearing liabilities and interest-earning assets, its interest rate spread could be expected to decrease during times of rising interest rates and, conversely, to increase during times of falling interest rates. Although management believes that the current level of interest rate sensitivity is reasonable, significant fluctuations and/or further increases in interest rates may have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Interest rate fluctuations can have a decidedly negative effect on First National Bank’s (and thus the Company’s) profitability. See Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.”

The Company’s Warren County and Southern Middle Tennessee business focus and economic conditions in these areas could adversely affect our operations. This is true because our operations are centralized and focused on this narrowly defined geographic area, with a concentration in the local nursery industry. As a result of this geographic concentration, the Company’s operating results depend largely upon economic conditions in these areas. A deterioration in economic conditions in these market areas, particularly in the nursery and real estate industries on which these areas depend, could have a material adverse impact on the quality of the Bank’s loan portfolio and on the demand for the Bank’s products and services, which in turn can be expected to have a negative, and perhaps material adverse, effect on results of operations of both the Bank and the Company.

As discussed above, the Company is subject to government regulation that could limit or restrict its activities. In turn, this could adversely impact operations. The financial services industry is regulated extensively. Federal and state regulation is designed primarily to protect the deposit insurance funds and consumers, and not to benefit our shareholders. These regulations can sometimes impose significant limitations on Company operations. In addition, these regulations are constantly evolving and may change significantly over time. Significant new laws or changes in existing laws or repeal of existing laws may cause the Company’s consolidated results to differ materially. Further, federal monetary policy, particularly as implemented through the Federal Reserve System, significantly affects credit conditions for us. The ultimate impact of financial institution affiliations under the

25


Table of Contents

Financial Services Modernization Act, and other aspects of that law, cannot yet be predicted but could adversely affect the Company.

Competition may adversely affect the Company’s performance. The financial services business in the Company’s market areas is highly competitive. It is becoming increasingly competitive due to changes in regulation, technological advances, and the accelerating pace of consolidation among financial services providers. The Company faces competition both in attracting deposits and in making loans. The Company competes for loans principally through the interest rates and loan fees charged and the efficiency and quality of services provided. Increasing levels of competition in the banking and financial services businesses may reduce the Company’s market share or cause the prices charged by the Company and/or the Bank for services to fall. Thus results may differ in future periods depending upon the nature or level of competition.

If a significant number of the Bank’s borrowers, guarantors and related parties fail to perform as required by the terms of their loans, the Company will sustain losses. A significant source of risk arises from the possibility that losses will be sustained if a significant number of the Bank’s borrowers, guarantors and related parties fail to perform in accordance with the terms of their loans. The Bank has adopted underwriting and credit monitoring procedures and credit policies, including the establishment and review of the allowance for credit losses, that management believes are appropriate to minimize this risk by assessing the likelihood of nonperformance, tracking loan performance and diversifying the Bank’s credit portfolio. These policies and procedures, however, may not prevent unexpected losses that could materially adversely affect consolidated results of operations.

Recent Developments and Future Legislation

The following discussion contains a summary of recent legislative developments that can be expected to affect the Company’s and the Bank’s operations.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. President Bush signed the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 into law on July 30, 2002. Regulations were issued by the SEC in connection with the new law during both 2002 and 2003, and additional regulations are anticipated. This important law has far reaching impact on corporate affairs, particularly for companies that are listed on public securities exchanges such as the New York Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ. It directly affects how independent public accountants and companies must interact with each other. It limits non-audit services that may be provided by public companies’ independent accountants and the companies that they audit with a view to maintaining or imposing independence on public companies and their independent auditors. It creates an oversight board for all certified public accounting firms that practice before the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Sarbanes-Oxley Act also seeks to enhance both the quality and reliability of financial statements, as well as improving corporate disclosure and the timing of material disclosures. Public companies are also required to improve corporate governance, typically by establishing or reorganizing audit committees to assure audit committee independence and oversight. The law provides for restrictions on loans to officers and directors of public companies, although it appears that most bank loans to such persons are exempt so long as made

26


Table of Contents

pursuant to already existing federal restrictions on transactions between financial institutions and their insiders. Finally, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act imposes criminal penalties for certain violations. Obviously, this is a very broad brush and limited description of a very detailed and important new statute.

As noted previously, new laws and regulations are commonly prescribed by governmental agencies that affect the Bank. Other well known recent development was the enactment of the Financial Services Modernization Act, which is having an extensive impact on financial services in the United States. Additional developments include, for example, a recent change in Tennessee law removed the prohibition against the acquisition of certain branches that have been in existence for at least three years by out-of-state banks and bank holding companies. Moreover, the limitation on acquiring banks in Tennessee that have been in existence less than five years has been changed to three years. It has also become possible to have “S corporation” tax status as a bank under federal income tax laws, with the effect that the tax attributes of S corporations are available, under federal law, to certain qualifying financial institutions.

Various proposals related to so-called “predatory lending” continue to be advanced by regulators, legislators, and consumer groups. The ultimate form or impact of any actual legislation or regulation cannot be accurately predicted.

The effects of certain recent changes accounting standards are addressed in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Item 8 of the Annual Report on Form 10-K).

The foregoing list is not intended to be exclusive or exhaustive. Other legislative and regulatory proposals that affect commercial banks and their competitors, and regarding changes in banking and the regulation of banks, thrifts and other financial institutions and bank and bank holding company powers, are being considered by the executive branch of the Federal government, Congress and various state governments, including Tennessee. Certain of these proposals, if adopted, could significantly change the regulation of banks and the financial services industry. It cannot be reliably predicted whether any of these proposals will be adopted, and, if adopted, how these proposals will affect the Bank and the Company.

Selected Financial Data and Statistical Information

Certain selected financial data and certain statistical data are set forth as part of Appendix F immediately following the Consolidated Financial Statements in Appendix F. This information should be read in conjunction with Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.”

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

The First National Bank owns four parcels of property on which it has established banking offices. The Bank leases the land (but owns the building) for one of its branches at commercial leasing rates pursuant to a long-term lease and owns one other parcel of property for future expansion. The Main Office is located at 200 East Main Street, McMinnville. The Bank utilizes four ATM’s for the convenience of its customers. In the judgment of management, the facilities of the Company and the First National Bank are generally suitable and adequate for the current and reasonably foreseeable needs of the Company and the Bank. However, new office sites are considered from time to time. The Bank provides a small amount of office space to its subsidiaries.

There are no material encumbrances on any of the properties owned by the Company or the Bank. Additional information relating to properties is set forth in Note 5 to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which are incorporated herein by reference pursuant to Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries may be named from time to time as defendants in or parties to pending and threatened legal actions and proceedings. There were no material legal proceedings pending at December 31, 2004, against the Company or the Bank other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to their respective businesses, to which the Company or the Bank is a party or of which any of their property is the subject. It is to be expected that various actions and proceedings may be anticipated to be pending or threatened against, or to involve, the Company or the Bank from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Some of these may from time to time involve large demands for compensatory and/or punitive damages. At the present time,

29

management knows of no pending or threatened litigation the ultimate resolution of which would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Additionally, the Company, and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries which are regulated by one or more federal and state regulatory authorities, are the subject of regularly conducted and special examinations, reviews and investigations performed by such regulatory authorities and by law enforcement agencies. The Company and/or the Bank may occasionally have disagreements with regulatory authorities and law enforcement agencies resulting from these investigations, examinations and reviews.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders in the fourth quarter of 2004.

PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.

(a) Market Information

There is no established public trading market for the Company’s Common Stock. Management, however, believes that Middle Tennessee is the principal market area for the Common Stock. The following table sets forth the high and low sales prices per share of the Common Stock for each quarter of fiscal 2004 and 2003, adjusted to reflect the two-for-one stock split that occurred in 2003. During 2004 the Company redeemed 5,573 shares of its Common Stock with a view toward providing some liquidity in the stock. Customarily, the Company will pay the book value (as calculated by the Company) per share as of the most recent month-end to redeem shares. Certain of the other information included below has been reported to the Company by certain selling or purchasing Shareholders in privately negotiated transactions during the periods indicated. Although management believes that the information supplied by purchasers and sellers concerning their respective transactions is generally reliable, it has not been verified. Such information may not include all transactions in the Company’s Common Stock for the respective periods shown, and it is possible that transactions occurred during the periods reflected or discussed at prices higher or lower than the prices set forth below. Bid price information for the Company’s common stock is not available. Certain of the transactions involved, or may have involved, the Company or its principals.

The last trade known to management prior to March 1, 2005, a convenient cut-off date for the preparation of this Annual Report, occurred at an estimated $80.00 per share for 100 shares on February 14, 2005. Because there are so few trades in the Company’s Common Stock, and because there is no established public trading market for the Company’s Common Stock, and because the Company and those closely affiliated with the Company may be involved in particular transactions, the prices shown above may not necessarily be indicative of the fair market value of the Common Stock or of the prices at which the Company’s Common Stock would trade if there were an established public trading market. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Common Stock will subsequently be purchased or sold at prices comparable to the prices set forth above.

The Company’s Common Stock

The Company’s securities consist of its common voting stock, no par value, which is the Company’s only class of securities authorized or outstanding. As of February 1, 2005, the Company estimates that it has approximately 595 holders of its common stock. In its charter, the Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of its no par common stock. No shares are reserved for issuance except up to 31,680 shares that remain reserved in connection with the 1997 First McMinnville Corporation Stock Option Plan (the “Stock Option Plan”) (as to which there were originally reserved 115,000 shares) and the number of shares needed to fulfill the requirements of the Rights Agreement described in “Shareholders Rights Agreement.” As of December 31, 2004, there were 1,040,860 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding.

31


Table of Contents

In December of 2002, the Company’s board of directors voted for a stock split of two shares for each share currently held by each shareholder. The record date for the two-for-one stock split was January 31, 2003. Contemporaneously, the Company’s board of directors voted to change the “par value” from $2.50 per share to “no par” stock for convenience. This change did not affect the value of the stock in any way, either positively or negatively.

Subject to certain limitations specified in this report, each such share is entitled to one vote on all matters. The presence in person or by proxy of at least a majority of the total number of outstanding shares of the common stock entitled to vote is necessary to constitute a quorum at annual and other meetings of the shareholders. A share, once represented for any purpose at a meeting, is deemed present for purposes of determining a quorum for that meeting (unless the meeting is adjourned and a new record date is set for the adjourned meeting and as may be determined by a court in certain specified circumstances), even if the holder of the share abstains from voting with respect to any matter brought before the said meeting. There is no cumulative voting. The Company’s common stock does not carry preemptive rights. A proxy must be dated not more than eleven months before the meeting date. Certain of the statutes and regulations described in Item 1 and in other places in this Report may further affect the matters described in this Item. See “Business Combinations” and “Shareholders Rights Agreement,” set forth elsewhere in this report.

The Company’s common stock is registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act and the Company files periodic and other reports with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Under the Securities Exchange Act, the Company files annual, quarterly and other types of reports, and its common shares are subject to all of the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act.

Classified Board of Directors

The business and affairs of the Company are to be managed by the Board of Directors. Directors must be shareholders of the Company and of legal age. The Company’s by laws provide that the Board shall generally consist of not fewer than five and not more than twenty-five members. Within these parameters, the actual number of directors is to be set by resolution of a majority of the entire Board. The number of directors can be increased by the vote of the Board or the Shareholders and may, under certain circumstances, be decreased by them to the extent of unfilled vacancies. The Board can elect new members to fill vacancies, unless such vacancies are created by removal of one or more directors. Directors are required by the bylaws to retire not later than the first day of the month following their 75th birthdays.

The Company’s board of directors is divided into three classes, with each class to be as nearly equal in number as possible. The directors in each class serve three-year terms of office. The effect of the Company having a classified board of directors is that only approximately one third of the members of the Company’s board of directors are elected each year, which effectively requires two annual meetings for the Company stockholders to change a majority of the members of the Company’s board of directors.

32


Table of Contents

The purpose of dividing the Company’s board of directors into classes is to facilitate continuity and stability of leadership of the Company by ensuring that experienced personnel familiar with the Company will be represented on the Company’s board of directors at all times, and to permit the Company’s management to plan for the future for a reasonable time. However, by potentially delaying the time within which an acquirer could obtain working control of the Company’s board of directors, this provision may discourage some potential share exchanges, tender offers, or takeover attempts.

Directors are elected by a plurality of the total votes cast by all stockholders. With cumulative voting, it may be possible for minority stockholders to obtain representation on the board of directors. Without cumulative voting, the holders of more than 50% of the shares of the Company common stock generally have the ability to elect 100% of the directors. As a result, the holders of the remaining shares of Company common stock effectively may not be able to elect any person to the Company’s board of directors. The absence of cumulative voting makes it more difficult for a Company stockholder who acquires less than a majority of the shares of the Company common stock to obtain representation on the Company’s board of directors.

Director Removal and Vacancies

The Company’s charter provides that: (1) a director may be removed by the entire Board of Directors or any number of directors can be removed by the Shareholders with or without cause by a majority vote of the shares represented and entitled to vote at the particular meeting. Directors may also be removed by a vote of the Board at a Board meeting, but only “for cause” by a majority of the entire Board of Directors; and (2) vacancies on the Company’s board of directors may be filled only by the Company’s board of directors or, upon removal of one or more directors by the Shareholders at a meeting of Shareholders. These provisions could have the effect of impeding efforts to gain control of the Company’s board of directors by anyone who obtains a controlling interest in the Company’s common stock. The term of a director appointed to fill a vacancy expires at the next meeting of stockholders at which that Class of directors is elected.

Director and Officer Indemnification and Limitation on Liability

Under the Tennessee Business Corporation Act, a corporation may indemnify any director against liability if the director:

•   Conducted himself or herself in good faith;
 
•   Reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in his or her official capacity with the corporation, that his or her conduct was in the best interests of the corporation;
 
•   Reasonably believed, in all other cases, that his or her conduct was at least not opposed to the corporation’s best interests; and

33


Table of Contents

•   In the case of any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.

The Company’s charter and bylaws provide for indemnification of its directors, officers, employees and agents against liabilities and expenses incurred in legal proceedings concerning the Company, to the fullest extent permitted under Tennessee corporate law. Indemnification will only apply to persons who act in good faith, in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interest of the Company, without willful misconduct or recklessness.

The present directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy is expected to cover the typical errors and omissions liability associated with the activities of the Company and the Bank. The provisions of the insurance policy might not indemnify any of the Company’s or Bank’s officers and directors against liability arising under the Securities Act.

The Company’s charter eliminates a director’s liability to the Company or its shareholders for monetary damages to the maximum extent permitted by law. Section 48-18-301 of the Tennessee Business Corporation Act provides that a director shall not be liable for any action, or failure to take action if he or she discharges his or her duties:

•   In good faith;
 
•   With the care of an ordinarily prudent person in a like position under similar circumstances; and
 
•   In a manner the director reasonably believes to be in the best interests of the corporation.

In discharging her or his duties, a director may rely on the information, opinions, reports, or statements, including financial statements, if prepared or presented by officers or employees of the corporation whom the director reasonably believes to be reliable. The director may also rely on such information prepared or presented by legal counsel, public accountants or other persons as to matters that the director reasonably believes are within the person’s competence.

Unless limited by its charter, a Tennessee corporation must indemnify, against reasonable expenses incurred by him or her, a director who was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defending any proceeding to which he or she was a party because he or she is or was a director of the corporation. Expenses incurred by a director in defending a proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding if three conditions are met:

•   The director must furnish the corporation a written affirmation of the director’s good faith belief that he or she has met the standard of conduct as set forth above;
 
•   The director must furnish the corporation a written undertaking by or on behalf of a director to repay such amount if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation against such expenses; and

34


Table of Contents

•   A determination must be made that the facts then known to those making the determination would not preclude indemnification.

A director may apply for court-ordered indemnification under certain circumstances. Unless a corporation’s charter provides otherwise,

•   An officer of a corporation is entitled to mandatory indemnification and is entitled to apply for court-ordered indemnification to the same extent as a director,
 
•   The corporation may indemnify and advance expenses to an officer, employee, or agent of the corporation to the same extent as to a director, and
 
•   A corporation may also indemnify and advance expenses to an officer, employee, or agent who is not a director to the extent, consistent with public policy, that may be provided by its charter, bylaws, general or specific action of its board of directors, or contract.

The Company’s charter and bylaws provide for the indemnification of its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Tennessee law. Amendment of this provision cannot be effected in such a manner as to adversely affect the rights of existing directors or rights as against existing circumstances.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons controlling the Company under the provisions described above, the Company has been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Amendment of Charter and Bylaws

The Company may amend its charter in any manner permitted by Tennessee law. The Tennessee Business Corporation Act provides that a corporation’s charter may be amended by a majority of votes entitled to be cast on an amendment, subject to any condition the board of directors may place on its submission of the amendment to the stockholders. Assuming a quorum is present, the vote of a plurality can change the provisions of the Company’s bylaws and charter. In limited cases, the Board can amend the charter without a vote of the shareholders. One of those cases has to do with changing the par value of the stock.

The Company’s Shareholders may adopt, amend, or repeal the Company’s by laws by the affirmative vote of a majority of the stock represented and entitled to vote at such meeting. The Company’s board of directors may adopt, amend, or repeal the Company’s bylaws by a vote of the majority of a quorum, except that a change in the number of directors requires a majority vote of the entire board of directors.

Special Meetings of Stockholders

Special meetings of the Company’s stockholders may be called for any purpose or purposes, at any time, by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the President, or Secretary of the Company and shall be called based on a request in writing of a majority of the Board of Directors or of Shareholders owning 10% or more of the outstanding capital stock issued, outstanding, and entitle to vote at such special meeting. The written request must state the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is being called. The written request must also specify the person or persons calling the meeting.

Stockholder Nominations and Proposals

Holders of Company common stock are entitled to submit proposals to be presented at an annual meeting of the Company stockholders. The Company’s charter and bylaws provide that any proposal of a stockholder which is to be presented at any meeting of stockholders must be sent so it is to be received by the Company in advance of the meeting. All such proposals must meet the strict criteria set forth in the Company’s charter and bylaws.

Only persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in the charter and bylaws are eligible to serve as directors. Nominations to the board of directors of the Company may be made at a meeting of shareholders (i) by or at the direction of the board of directors or (ii) by any shareholder of the Company who was a shareholder of record at the time of the giving of notice of the applicable meeting who is entitled to vote for the election of directors at the meeting if such person has fully and completely complied with the notice procedures set forth in the charter and described below.

In order for a shareholder to nominate a person for election to the board of directors of the Company at a meeting of shareholders, such shareholder shall have delivered timely notice of such shareholder’s intent to make such nomination in writing to the secretary of the Company. To be timely, unless otherwise provided by applicable law (including, without limitation, federal securities laws), a shareholder’s notice shall be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Company (i) in the case of an annual meeting, not less than sixty (60) nor more than ninety (90) days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is changed by more than thirty (30) days from such anniversary date, notice by the shareholder to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the earlier of the day on which notice of the date of the meeting was mailed or public disclosure of the meeting was made, and (ii) in the case of a special meeting at which directors are to be elected, not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the earlier of the day on which notice of the date of the meeting was mailed or public disclosure of the meeting was made. Such shareholder’s notice shall set forth (i) as to each person whom the shareholder proposes to nominate for election as a director at such meeting all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act (including such person’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected); (ii) as to the shareholder giving the notice (A) the

36


Table of Contents

name and address, as they appear on the Company’s books, of such shareholder and (B) the class and number of shares of the Company which are beneficially owned by such shareholder and also which are owned of record by such shareholder; and (iii) as to the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination is made, (A) the name and address of such person and (B) the class and number of shares of the Company which are beneficially owned by such person. In addition, the nominating shareholder is responsible for providing to the Company all of the information as to each nominee as is required by paragraphs (a), (d), (e) and (f) of Item 401 of the SEC’s Regulation S-K (or the corresponding provisions of any regulation subsequently adopted by the SEC applicable to the Company), together with each such person’s signed consent to serve as a director of the Company if elected. At the request of the board of directors, any person nominated by the board of directors for election as a director shall furnish to the secretary of the Company that information required to be set forth in a shareholder’s notice of nomination which pertains to the nominee. It is the express intention that the foregoing information be provided to the board of directors and the shareholders so that adequate disclosure can be made to the shareholders. Accordingly, such information shall be provided notwithstanding that the Company is not at the time of the adoption of the Company’s bylaws, or at any other time, subject either to the Securities Exchange Act or to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

The chairperson of the meeting is required, if the facts so warrant, to determine and declare to the meeting that a nomination was not made in accordance with the procedures prescribed by the charter. If so, the chairperson must declare nomination defective and disregard it. A shareholder seeking to nominate a person to serve as a director must also comply with all applicable requirements of the Securities Exchange Act, together with the rules and regulations thereunder, to the extent applicable to the Company or any transaction brought before the Company’s shareholders.

•   The name and address of each proposed nominee.
 
•   The principal occupation of each proposed nominee.
 
•   The total number of shares of capital stock of the bank that will be voted for each proposed nominee.
 
•   The name and residence address of the notifying shareholder.
 
•   The number of shares of capital stock of the bank owned by the notifying shareholder.

If nominations are not made in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the chairperson of the meeting, in his/her discretion, may disregard the nomination, and upon his/her instructions, the vote tellers may disregard all votes cast for each such nominee.

Business Combinations

As a Tennessee corporation, the Company is or could be subject to certain restrictions on business combinations under Tennessee law, including, but not limited to, combinations with interested stockholders.

Tennessee has multiple anti-takeover acts that are or may become applicable to the Company. Two of these are the Tennessee Business Combination Act and the Tennessee Greenmail Act.

The Tennessee Business Combination Act. The Tennessee Business Combination Act generally prohibits a “business combination” by the Company or a subsidiary with an “interested stockholder” within 5 years after the stockholder becomes an interested stockholder. But the Company or a subsidiary can enter into a business combination within that period if, before the interested stockholder became such, the Company board of directors approved:

•   The business combination; or
 
•   The transaction in which the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder.

After that 5 year moratorium, the business combination with the interested stockholder can be consummated only if it satisfies certain fair price criteria or is approved by two-thirds of the other stockholders.

For purposes of the Tennessee Business Combination Act, a “business combination” includes mergers share exchanges, sales and leases of assets, issuances of securities, and similar transactions. An “interested stockholder” is generally any person or entity that beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of any outstanding class or series of the Company stock.

Tennessee law also severely limits the extent to which the Company or any of its officers or directors could be held liable for resisting any business combination. Under the Tennessee Business Corporation Act, neither a Tennessee corporation having any stock registered or traded on a national securities exchange, nor any of its officers or directors, may be held liable for:

•   Failing to approve the acquisition of shares by an interested stockholder on or before the date the stockholder acquired such shares;
 
•   Seeking to enforce or implement the provisions of Tennessee law;
 
•   Failing to adopt or recommend any charter or by-law amendment or provision relating to such provisions of Tennessee law; or
 
•   Opposing any share exchange, exchange, tender offer, or significant asset sale because of a good faith belief that such transaction would adversely affect the corporation’s employees,

38


Table of Contents

    customers, suppliers, the communities in which the corporation or its subsidiaries operate or any other relevant factor.

But the officers and directors can only consider such factors if the corporation’s charter permits the board to do so in connection with the transaction. The Company’s charter does not, at this time, expressly permit the board to consider these factors.

The Tennessee Greenmail Act. The Tennessee Greenmail Act applies to a Tennessee corporation (like the Company) that has a class of voting stock registered or traded on a national securities exchange or registered with the SEC pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act. Under the Tennessee Greenmail Act, the Company may not purchase any of its shares at a price above the market value of such shares from any person who holds more than 3% of the class of securities to be purchased if such person has held such shares for less than two years, unless the purchase has been approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of each class of voting stock issued by the Company or the Company makes an offer, of at least equal value per share, to all stockholders of such class.

The laws described above, together with provisions of the Company’s charter and bylaws, regarding business combinations might be deemed to make the Company less attractive as a candidate for acquisition by another company than would otherwise be the case in the absence of such provisions. For example, if another company should seek to acquire a controlling interest of less than a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, the acquirer would not thereby necessarily obtain the ability to replace a majority of the Company board of directors until at least the second annual meeting of stockholders following the acquisition.

As a result, the Company’s stockholders may be deprived of opportunities to sell some or all of their shares at prices that represent a premium over prevailing market prices in a takeover context. The provisions described above also may make it more difficult for the Company’s stockholders to replace the Company board of directors or management, even if the holders of a majority of the Company’s common stock should believe that such replacement is in the interests of the Company. As a result, such provisions may tend to perpetuate the incumbent Company board of directors and management.

Stock Option Plan

Certain shares are reserved for issuance as set forth in the description of the Stock Option Plan appearing elsewhere in this Report.

Shareholders Rights Agreement

Effective as of June 10, 1997, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted a Shareholders Rights Agreement (the “Rights Agreement”) and authorized and declared a dividend of one common share purchase right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Common Shares”). The dividend was payable on June 10, 1997, to the shareholders of record on that

39


Table of Contents

date (the “Record Date”), and with respect to Common Shares issued thereafter until the Distribution Date (as hereinafter defined) or the expiration or earlier redemption or exchange of the Rights. Except as set forth below, each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company, at any time after the Distribution Date one Common Share at a price per share of $120, subject to adjustment (the “Purchase Price”). The description and terms of the Rights are as set forth in the Rights Agreement. The following description of the Rights is qualified by reference to the Rights Agreement, which is an Exhibit to this Report.

Initially the Rights will be attached to all certificates representing Common Shares then outstanding, and no separate Right Certificates will be distributed. The Rights will separate from the Common Shares upon the earliest to occur of (i) ten (10) days after the public announcement of a person’s or group of affiliated or associated persons’ having acquired beneficial ownership of ten percent (10%) or more of the outstanding Common Shares (such person or group being hereinafter referred to as an “Acquiring Person”); or (ii) ten (10) days (or such later date as the Board may determine) following the commencement of, or announcement of an intention to make, a tender offer or exchange offer the consummation of which would result in a person or group’s becoming an Acquiring Person (the earlier of such dates being called the “Distribution Date”).

The Rights Agreement provides that, until the Distribution Date, the Rights will be transferred with, and only with, the Common Shares. Until the Distribution Date (or earlier redemption or expiration of the Rights) new Common Share certificates issued after the Record Date upon transfer or new issuance of Common Shares will contain a notation incorporating the Rights Agreement by reference. Until the Distribution Date (or earlier redemption or expiration of the Rights), the surrender for transfer of any certificates for Common Shares outstanding as of the Record Date, even without such notation or a copy of this Summary of Rights being attached thereto, will also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the Common Shares represented by such certificate.

As soon as practicable following the Distribution Date, separate certificates evidencing the Rights (“Right Certificates”) will be mailed to holders of record of the Common Shares as of the close of business on the Distribution Date (and to each initial record holder of certain Common Shares issued after the Distribution Date), and such separate Right Certificates alone will evidence the Rights.

The Rights are not exercisable until the Distribution Date. The Rights will expire on June 4, 2007 (the “Final Expiration Date”), unless the Final Expiration Date is extended or unless the Rights are earlier redeemed or exchanged by the Company, in each case, as described below.

In the event that any person becomes an Acquiring Person (except pursuant to a tender or exchange offer which is for all outstanding Common Shares at a price and on terms which a majority of certain members of the Board of Directors determines to be adequate and in the best interests of the Company, its stockholders and other relevant constituencies, other than such Acquiring Person, its affiliates and associates (a “Permitted Offer”)), each holder of a Right will thereafter have the right (the “Flip-In Right”) to acquire a Common Share for a purchase price equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the then current market price, or at such greater price as the Rights Committee shall determine (not to exceed thirty-three percent (33 1/3%) of such current market price). Notwithstanding the

40


Table of Contents

foregoing, all Rights that are, or were, beneficially owned by any Acquiring Person or any affiliate or associate thereof will be null and void and not exercisable.

In the event that, at any time following the Distribution Date, (i) the Company is acquired in a merger or other business combination transaction in which the holders of all of the outstanding Common Shares immediately prior to the consummation of the transaction are not the holders of all of the surviving corporation’s voting power, or (ii) more than fifty percent (50%) of the Company’s assets or earning power is sold or transferred, then each holder of a Right (except Rights which have previously been voided as set forth above) shall thereafter have the right (the “Flip-Over Right”) to receive, upon exercise and payment of the Purchase Price, common shares of the acquiring company having a value equal to two times the Purchase Price. If a transaction would otherwise result in a holder’s having a Flip-In as well as a Flip-Over Right, then only the Flip-Over Right will be exercisable; if a transaction results in a holders having a Flip-Over Right subsequent to a transaction resulting in a holders having a Flip-In Right, a holder will have Flip-Over Rights only to the extent such holders Flip-In Rights have not been exercised.

The Purchase Price payable, and the number of Common Shares or other securities or property issuable, upon exercise of Rights are subject to adjustment from time to time to prevent dilution (i) in the event of a stock dividend on, or a subdivision, combination or reclassification of Common Shares, (ii) upon the grant to holders of Common Shares of certain rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares at a price, or securities convertible into Common Shares with a conversion price, less than the then current market price of Common Shares, or (iii) upon the distribution to holders of Common Shares of evidences of indebtedness or assets (excluding regular periodic cash dividends paid out of earnings or retained earnings or dividends payable in Common Shares) or of subscription rights or warrants (other than those referred to above). However, no adjustment in the Purchase Price will be required until cumulative adjustments require an adjustment of at least one percent (1%). No fractional Common Shares will be issued and in lieu thereof, an adjustment in cash will be made based on the market price of Common Shares on the last trading day prior to the date of exercise.

At any time prior to the time a person becomes an Acquiring Person, the Board of Directors of the Company may redeem the Rights in whole, but not in part, at a price of $.001 per Right, subject to adjustment by the Rights Committee at a price between $.001 and $.01 per Right (the “Redemption Price”). The redemption of the Rights may be made effective at such time on such basis and with such conditions as the Board of Directors in its sole discretion may establish.

Immediately upon any redemption of the Rights, the right to exercise the Rights will terminate and the only right of the holders of Rights will be to receive the Redemption Price.

At any time after any person becomes an Acquiring Person and prior to the acquisition by such person or group of Common Shares representing 50% or more of the then outstanding Common Shares, the Board of Directors of the Company may exchange the Rights (other than Rights which have become null and void), in whole or in part, at an exchange ratio of one Common Share per Right (subject to adjustment).

41


Table of Contents

All of the provisions of the Rights Agreement may be amended prior to the Distribution Date by the Board of Directors of the Company for any reason it deems appropriate. Prior to the Distribution Date, the Board is also authorized, as it deems appropriate, to lower the thresholds for distribution and Flip-In Rights to not less than the greater of (i) any percentage greater than the largest percentage then held by any shareholder, or (ii) 10%. After the Distribution Date, the provisions of the Rights Agreement may be amended by the Board in order to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to make changes which do not adversely affect the interests of holders of Rights (excluding the interests of any Acquiring Person), or, subject to certain limitations, to shorten or lengthen any time period under the Rights Agreement.

Until a Right is exercised, the holder thereof, as such, will have no rights as a shareholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive dividends. While the distribution of the Rights will not be taxable to shareholders of the Company, shareholders may, depending upon the circumstances, recognize taxable income should the Rights become exercisable or upon the occurrence of certain events thereafter.

General Terms and Provisions Applicable to the Company’s Common Stock

Liquidation. In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, shareholders are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities.

Liability for Further Assessments. The Company’s shareholders are not subject to further assessments by the Company on their shares.

Sinking Fund Provision. The Company’s shares do not require a “sinking fund” which is a separate capital reserve maintained to pay shareholders with preferential rights for their investment in the event of liquidation or redemption.

Redemption Provision. The Company’s shareholders do not have a right of redemption, which is the right to sell their shares back to the Company.

(b) Holders

The approximate number of record holders, including those shares held in “nominee” or “street name,” of the Company’s Common Stock at February 1, 2005 was approximately 595.

(c) Dividends

The Company has paid a cash dividend in every years since it was organized in 1984. The Company declared semi-annual cash dividends on its Common Stock (adjusted for the 2-for-1 stock split effected in 2003) in the aggregate amount of $1.75 per share for 2004, $1.70 per share for 2003, and $1.60 per share for 2002. Future dividends may be paid as determined by the Company’s board of directors from time to time in accordance with federal and state law. To the extent practicable, but in all event subject to a wide variety of considerations and to the discretion of the board of directors,

42


Table of Contents

the Company expects to pay dividends semi-annually in accordance with past practices. However, any dividends that may be declared and paid by the Company will depend upon earnings, financial condition, regulatory and prudential considerations, and or other factors affecting the Company that cannot be reliably predicted.

However, no dividend or other distribution can be made if the Company is insolvent or would be rendered insolvent by such action. Under the Tennessee Business Corporation Act, the holding company may not pay a dividend if afterwards:

•   The Company would be unable to pay its debts as they become due, or
 
•   The Company’s total assets would be less than its total liabilities plus an amount needed to satisfy any preferential rights of shareholders.

Any dividends that may be declared and paid by the Company will depend upon earnings, financial condition, regulatory and prudential considerations, and or other factors affecting the Company that cannot be reliably predicted. Cash available for dividend distribution to Shareholders must initially come from dividends which the Bank pays the Company. As a result, the legal restrictions on the Bank’s dividend payments also affect the ability of the holding company to pay dividends. See “Payment of Dividends.”

Please refer also to the discussion of dividends and related matters (such as “Capital Adequacy”) and to the discussion of “Payment of Dividends” set forth in Item 1 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, to Item 7 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K (“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation”), to Item 5 (“Market for Registrant’s Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters”), and to Item 8 (the Consolidated Financial Statements).

The Company expects that funds for the payment of dividends and expenses of the Company will come from dividends paid to the Company by the Bank. If the Company requires additional funds for acquisitions or investments, it may be able to obtain those funds from additional dividends paid by the Bank or from external financing.

The National Bank Act and Related Regulations.

The First National Bank’s ability to pay dividends is limited by the National Bank Act and related regulations. Essentially, the Bank may pay dividends from its earnings for the preceding period after deducting all loan losses, bad debts, current operating expenses, actual losses, required transfers to surplus, accrued dividends on any preferred stock then outstanding, and all federal and state taxes. Prior OCC approval is required as to certain dividends. It is unlikely that the Bank will pay out the maximum amount that it is permitted to pay in dividends as most of the Bank’s earnings are reinvested in its operations or added to capital to support future growth.

The payment of dividends by any bank is, of course, dependent upon its earnings and financial condition and, in addition to the limitations discussed above, is subject to the statutory power of

43


Table of Contents

certain federal regulatory agencies to act to prevent unsafe or unsound banking practices. Please refer also to the discussion of “Restrictions on Dividends Paid by Subsidiary Bank” set forth in Item 1 of this Report, to Item 7 of this Report (“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation”), and to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Item 8).

(d) Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

During the past year, the Company sold 2,900 shares of its common voting stock that were not registered under the Securities Act. This discussion includes sales of reacquired securities (if any), as well as new issues, securities issued in exchange for property, services, or other securities, and new securities resulting from the modification of outstanding securities. All of these shares are believed to be exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

None of the sales were underwritten. These securities were not publicly offered but, rather, were sold to employees, directors and/or others who qualified to participate in the Company’s 1997 stock option plan described elsewhere in these materials. All of the shares were sold in private transactions. All of the proceeds received from the exercise of the stock options, which totaled $83,000 were paid directly to the Company and were used by the Company for general working capital purposes. There were no payments to underwriters or other persons and there were no deductions or discounts from the purchase price received by the Company. The securities sold by the Company are not convertible or exchangeable into equity securities, and they were not warrants or options representing equity securities.

Further information about the First McMinnville Corporation Audit Committee (which is joint with the audit committee of First National Bank), as well as information concerning the Company’s Code of Ethics, is included below.

Information About the Audit Committee

The Company has a separately-designated standing audit committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Audit Committee is more fully described in the Company’s 2004 Proxy Statement under the sections entitled “Audit Committee,” “Report of the Audit Committee,” “Principal Auditor Fees and Services,” and “Proposal No. 2 — Ratification of the Audit Committee’s Selection of Independent Auditors,” which sections are incorporated herein by reference. The current members of the audit committee are Arthur J. Dyer (Chair), Dean I. Gillespie, and Rufus W. Gonder. The Company’s board of directors has determined that all of these persons are independent within the meaning of Rule 4200(a)(14) of the NASDAQ. The Audit Committee has not at this time designated a “financial expert” as that term is used in the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The board of directors is considering the issues related to and the ramifications of such a designation. In addition, rules have only recently been issued by the SEC concerning financial experts, which rules are being studied by the board of directors.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

The Board of Directors
First McMinnville Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of First McMinnville Corporation and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, comprehensive earnings, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of First McMinnville Corporation and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002

(1)   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
    The accounting and reporting policies of First McMinnville Corporation (the “Company”), its wholly-owned subsidiary, the First National Bank of McMinnville (“Bank”) and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiary, First Community Title and Escrow Company are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and conform to general practices within the banking industry. The following is a brief summary of the significant policies.

  (a)   Principles of Consolidation
 
      The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiary, First National Bank of McMinnville and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiary, First Community Title and Escrow Company. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
  (b)   Nature of Operations
 
      The Company is registered as a one bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956. The Bank operates under a Federal Bank Charter and provides full banking services. As a national bank, the subsidiary bank is subject to regulation by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. The principal area served by First National Bank of McMinnville is Warren County, Tennessee and surrounding counties in Middle Tennessee. Services are provided at the main office and four branches.
 
  (c)   Estimates
 
      The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to determination of the allowance for possible loan losses and the valuation of debt and equity securities and the related deferred taxes.
 
  (d)   Loans
 
      Loans are stated at the principal amount outstanding. The allowance for possible loan losses is shown as reductions of loans. Loan origination and commitment fees and certain loan-related costs are being deferred and the net amount amortized as an adjustment of the related loan’s yield over the contractual life of the loan. Interest income on most loans is accrued based on the principal amount outstanding.
 
      Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan” and SFAS No. 118, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income Recognition and Disclosures” apply to impaired loans except for large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment including residential mortgage and installment loans.
 
      A loan is impaired when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and interest due under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans are measured at the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, at the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. If the measure of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, the Company shall recognize an impairment by creating a valuation allowance with a corresponding charge to the provision for possible loan losses or by adjusting an existing valuation allowance for the impaired loan with a corresponding charge or credit to the provision for possible loan losses.
 
      The Company’s consumer loans are divided into various groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment and, thus, are not subject to the provisions of SFAS Nos. 114 and 118. Substantially all other loans of the Company are evaluated for impairment under the provisions of SFAS Nos. 114 and 118.

(1)   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

  (d)   Loans, Continued
 
      The Company considers all loans subject to the provisions of SFAS Nos. 114 and 118 that are on nonaccrual status to be impaired. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when doubt as to timely collection of principal or interest exists, or when principal or interest is past due 90 days or more unless such loans are well-secured and in the process of collection. Past due status is based on contractual terms of the loan. Delays or shortfalls in loan payments are evaluated along with various other factors to determine if a loan is impaired. Generally, delinquencies under 90 days are considered insignificant unless certain other factors are present which indicate impairment is probable. The decision to place a loan on nonaccrual status is also based on an evaluation of the borrower’s financial condition, collateral, liquidation value, and other factors that affect the borrower’s ability to pay.
 
      Generally, at the time a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, all interest accrued and uncollected on the loan in the current fiscal year is reversed from income, and all interest accrued and uncollected from the prior year is charged off against the allowance for possible loan losses. Thereafter, interest on nonaccrual loans is recognized as interest income only to the extent that cash is received and future collection of principal is not in doubt. If the collectibility of outstanding principal is doubtful, such cash received is applied as a reduction of principal. A nonaccrual loan may be restored to an accruing status when principal and interest are no longer past due and unpaid and future collection of principal and interest on a timely basis is not in doubt.
 
      Loans not on nonaccrual status are classified as impaired in certain cases when there is inadequate protection by the current net worth and financial capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged, if any. In those cases, such loans have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt, and if such deficiencies are not corrected, there is a probability that the Company will sustain some loss. In such cases, interest income continues to accrue as long as the loan does not meet the Company’s criteria for nonaccrual status.
 
      Generally, the Company also classifies as impaired any loans the terms of which have been modified in a troubled debt restructuring. Interest is generally accrued on such loans that continue to meet the modified terms of their loan agreements.
 
      The Company’s charge-off policy for impaired loans is similar to its charge-off policy for all loans in that loans are charged off in the month when they are considered uncollectible.
 
  (e)   Allowance for Possible Loan Losses
 
      The provision for possible loan losses represents a charge to earnings necessary, after loan charge-offs and recoveries, to maintain the allowance for possible loan losses at an appropriate level which is adequate to absorb estimated losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Such estimated losses arise primarily from the loan portfolio but may also be derived from other sources, including commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. The level of the allowance is determined on a quarterly basis using procedures which include: (1) categorizing commercial and commercial real estate loans into risk categories to estimate loss probabilities based primarily on the historical loss experience of those risk categories and current economic conditions; (2) analyzing significant commercial and commercial real estate credits and calculating specific reserves as necessary; (3) assessing various homogeneous consumer loan categories to estimate loss probabilities based primarily on historical loss experience; (4) reviewing unfunded commitments; and (5) considering various other factors, such as changes in credit concentrations, loan mix, and economic conditions which may not be specifically quantified in the loan analysis process.
 
      The allowance for possible loan losses consists of an allocated portion and an unallocated, or general portion. The allocated portion is maintained to cover estimated losses applicable to specific segments of the loan portfolio. The unallocated portion is maintained to absorb losses which probably exist as of the evaluation date but are not identified by the more objective processes used for the allocated portion of the allowance due to risk of errors or imprecision. While the total allowance consists of an allocated portion and an unallocated portion, these terms are primarily used to describe a process. Both portions of the allowance are available to provide for inherent loss in the entire portfolio.

(1)   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued

  (e)   Allowance for Possible Loan Losses, Continued
 
      The allowance for possible loan losses is increased by provisions for possible loan losses charged to expense and is reduced by loans charged off net of recoveries on loans previously charged off. The provision is based on management’s determination of the amount of the allowance necessary to provide for estimated loan losses based on its evaluation of the loan portfolio. Determining the appropriate level of the allowance and the amount of the provision involves uncertainties and matters of judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision.
 
  (f)   Debt and Equity Securities
 
      The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities”. Under the provisions of the Statement, securities are classified in three categories and accounted for as follows:

  •   Securities Held-to-Maturity

Debt securities that the enterprise has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity securities and reported at amortized cost. Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts are recognized by the interest method.

  •   Trading Securities
 
      Debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings.

  •   Securities Available-for-Sale
 
      Debt and equity securities not classified as either held-to-maturity securities or trading securities are classified as available-for-sale securities and reported at estimated fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Amortization and accretion of discounts are recognized by the interest method.

      No securities have been classified as trading securities.
 
      Realized gains or losses from the sale of debt and equity securities are recognized based upon the specific identification method.
 
  (g)   Premises and Equipment
 
      Premises and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed primarily by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Gain or loss on items retired and otherwise disposed of is credited or charged to operations and cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the asset and accumulated depreciation accounts.
 
      Expenditures for major renewals and improvements of premises and equipment are capitalized and those for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred.
 
  (h)   Long-Term Assets
 
      Premises and equipment, intangible assets, and other long-term assets are reviewed for impairment when events indicate their carrying amount may not be recoverable from future undiscounted cash flows. If impaired, the assets are recorded at fair value.
 
  (i)   Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase
 
      Substantially all repurchase agreement liabilities represent amounts advanced by various customers. Securities are pledged to cover these liabilities, which are not covered by federal deposit insurance.

  (j)   Other Real Estate
 
      Real estate acquired in settlement of loans is initially recorded at the lower of cost (loan value of real estate acquired in settlement of loans plus incidental expense) or estimated fair value, less estimated cost of disposal. Based on periodic evaluations by management, the carrying values are reduced by a direct charge to earnings when they exceed net realizable value. Costs relating to the development and improvement of the property are capitalized, while holding costs of the property are charged to expense in the period incurred.
 
  (k)   Stock Options
 
      The Company uses the fair value method to calculate the compensation reported in the proforma earnings in note 20 to the consolidated financial statements.
 
  (l)   Income Taxes
 
      Provisions for income taxes are based on taxes payable or refundable for the current year (after exclusion of non-taxable income such as interest on state and municipal securities) and deferred taxes on temporary differences between the amount of taxable and pretax financial income and between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are included in the financial statements at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax asset and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled as prescribed in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes.
 
      The Company and its subsidiary file a consolidated Federal income tax return. Each corporation provides for income taxes on a separate-return basis.
 
  (m)   Benefit Plans
 
      Net pension expense consists of service costs, interest cost, return on pension assets and amortization of unrecognized initial excess of projected benefits over plan assets and amortization of actuarial gains and losses. Profit sharing and 401(K) plan expense is the amount contributed as determined by the Board of Directors.
 
  (n)   Advertising Costs
 
      Advertising costs are expensed when incurred.
 
  (o)   Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
      For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks and Federal funds sold. Generally, Federal funds sold are purchased and sold for one-day periods. The Company maintains deposits with other financial institutions in excess of the Federal insurance amounts. Management makes deposits only with financial institutions it considers to be financially sound.
 
  (p)   Off-Balance-Sheet Financial Instruments
 
      In the ordinary course of business the subsidiary bank has entered into off-balance-sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit, commitments under credit card arrangements, commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the financial statements when they are funded or related fees are incurred or received.

  (q)   Reclassifications
 
      Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2003 and 2002 figures to conform to the presentation for 2004.
 
  (r)   Impact of New Accounting Standards
 
      In June, 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities”. SFAS No. 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring).” The provisions of the Statement are effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 146 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
 
      In November, 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation (FIN) 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantee of Indebtedness of Others”, which elaborates on the disclosure to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. The interpretation also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of the guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The adoption of FIN 45 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
 
      In May, 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity”. This Statement established standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). Many of those instruments were previously classified as equity. This statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
 
      In June, 2003, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued an exposure draft on a Proposed Statement of Position (SOP) on Allowance for Credit Losses. If approved, the Proposed SOP would significantly change the way the allowance for possible loan losses is calculated. Under the Proposed SOP, any loans determined to be impaired, as defined in SFAS No. 114, would be assigned a specific reserve based on facts and circumstances surrounding the particular loan and no loss percentage would be assigned. If a loan is determined not to be impaired, it would be assigned to a pool of similar homogeneous loans. A loss percentage would then be assigned to the pool based on historical charge-offs adjusted for internal or external factors such as the economy, changes in underwriting standards, etc. Management has not yet determined the impact this Proposed SOP would have on their consolidated financial statements. Under the Proposal, any changes resulting from the initial application of this Proposed SOP would be treated as a change in accounting estimate.

  (r)   Impact of New Accounting Standards, Continued
 
      In November 2003, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) issued Position 03-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments”. The EITF provides guidance on the meaning of the phrase other-than-temporary impairment and its application to several types of investments, including debt securities classified as held-to-maturity and available-for-sale under SFAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equities Securities”. For purposes of EITF No. 03-1 an investment is impaired if the fair market value of the investment is less than its cost. Controversy has developed over the criteria to be used to determine whether an impairment is other than temporary. The EITF requires that an investor should make an evidenced-based judgment about a recovery of fair value up to (or beyond) the cost of the investment by considering the severity and duration of the impairment in relation to the forecasted recovery of fair value. Because of the controversy related to the determination of whether the impairment is other than temporary, certain positions of the EITF have been temporarily delayed. The Company cannot assess the effect on the financial position or results of operations until the controversy has been resolved. The EITF requires disclosures related to securities with fair values less than cost. The disclosures have been included in note 3 to the consolidated financial statements.
 
      In December 2003, the FASB issued a revision to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 132, “Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits”. SFAS No. 132 requires enhanced disclosures for defined benefit pension plans. SFAS No. 132 requires companies to provide more details about their plan assets, investment strategy, measurement dates, benefit obligations, cash flows, and components of net periodic benefit cost recognized during interim periods. The disclosures required by SFAS No. 132 are effective for financial statements with fiscal years ending December 15, 2003, except for disclosures regarding estimated future benefit payments. Disclosures regarding estimated future benefit payments are required for fiscal years ending after June 15, 2004. The interim-period disclosures required by this statement are effective for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2003. See note 11 to the consolidated financial statements for the disclosures required by this statement. As SFAS No. 132 relates to changes in disclosures, its adoption did not have a material impact on First McMinnville Corporation’s financial condition or results of operations.
 
      In December, 2004, the FASB reissued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004) (“SFAS”) related to share based payments. For First McMinnville Corporation the SFAS applies to the accounting for stock options. The substance of the revised statement is to require companies to record as an expense amortization of the fair market value of stock options determined as of the grant date. The offsetting credit is to additional paid-in capital unless there is an obligation to buy back the stock or exchange other assets for the stock. If such an obligation exists the offsetting credit would be to a liability account. The statement is effective for the first interim reporting period after June 15, 2005. First McMinnville Corporation is currently assessing the impact of this SFAS; however, management does not expect the impact to be material on the financial condition or results of operations.

    The unamortized net transition asset is being amortized over 30 years using the straight line method. Twelve years remain at December 31, 2004. The unrecognized prior service cost is being amortized by the straight-line method and has three years remaining at December 31, 2004. The unrecognized net gain or loss is being amortized over 11.5 years which is the expected future working lifetime as of January 1, 2004. The market value of plan assets is the market value of the assets plus accruals.
 
    The following weighted-average assumptions were used to determine benefit obligations at December 31, 2004 and 2003:

    100.0 %     100.0 %
 
           

    The Plan’s assets are currently invested at the discretion of the plan sponsor. No formal investment targets are maintained for different classes of assets due to the relative small size of the plan.
 
    The Company’s best estimate of contribution for the year ended December 31, 2005 range between $100,000 and $250,000.
 
    The benefits expected to be paid in the years subsequent to December 31, 2004 assuming no lump sum payments are as follows:

(11)   Employee Benefit Plans, Continued
 
    The Bank has adopted a 401(k) plan which covers eligible employees. To be eligible, an employee must have obtained the age of 21 and must have completed one year of service. The provisions of the plan provide for both employee and employer contributions. For the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, the Bank contributed $57,000, $58,000 and $53,000, respectively, to the plan.
 
(12)   Regulatory Matters and Restrictions on Dividends
 
    The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies.
 
    Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, that the Company and the Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. The actual ratios of the Company and the Bank were as follows:

                                         
    Company     Bank     Minimum  
    2004     2003     2004     2003     Requirement  
Tier I ratio
    29.79 %     28.37 %     29.73 %     28.25 %     4 %
 
                                       
Total risk-based ratio
    30.86 %     29.50 %     30.80 %     29.38 %     8 %
 
                                       
Leverage ratio
    16.17 %     15.46 %     16.14 %     15.40 %     4 %

    As of December 31, 2004, the most recent notification from the banking regulators categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since the notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.
 
(13)   Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
 
    The Company has an unsecured $2,000,000 line of credit with another financial institution. The subsidiary Bank has lines of credit with other financial institutions totaling $20,000,000. At December 31, 2004 and 2003 there was no outstanding balance under these lines of credit.
 
(14)   Concentration of Credit Risk
 
    Substantially all of the Company’s loans, commitments, and commercial and standby letters of credit have been granted to customers in the Company’s market area. Virtually all such customers are depositors of the Bank. Investment in state and municipal securities also include governmental entities within the Company’s market area. The concentrations of credit by type of loan are set forth in note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.

December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002

(14)   Concentration of Credit Risk, Continued
 
    At December 31, 2004, the Company’s cash and due from banks included commercial bank deposit accounts aggregating $8,547,000 in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit of $100,000 per institution.
 
(15)   Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk
 
    The Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments consist primarily of commitments to extend credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments.
 
    The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

                 
    In Thousands  
    Contract or Notional Amount  
    2004     2003  
Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk:
               
Unused commitments to extend credit
  $ 13,124       9,096  
Standby letters of credit
    2,216       2,524  
 
           
Total
  $ 15,340       11,620  
 
           

      Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to be drawn upon, the total commitment amounts generally represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit-worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterpart. Collateral normally consists of real property.
 
    Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing, and similar transactions. Most guarantees extend from one to three years. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The maximum potential amount of future payments that the Company could be required to make under the guarantees totaled $2.2 million at December 31, 2004.

(16)   Stock Split and Elimination of Par Value
 
    In December of 2002, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a two-for-one stock split effective February 1, 2003. As a result, shareholders as of the record date received an additional share for each share owned. Accordingly, the number of outstanding shares doubled from 520,749 shares to 1,041,498 shares. In addition, the Board authorized a charter amendment to eliminate “par value”, which was deemed as unnecessary accounting convention. All share and option per share amounts in this Report have been restated to reflect the stock split.

(18)   Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
    Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values for its financial instruments. Fair value estimates, methods, and assumptions are set forth below for the Company’s financial instruments.
 
    Cash and short-term investments
 
    For those short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
 
    Investments and Mortgage-Backed Securities
 
    The carrying amounts for short-term securities approximate fair value because they mature in 90 days or less and do not present unanticipated credit concerns. The fair value of longer-term securities and mortgage-backed securities, except certain state and municipal securities, is estimated based on bid prices published in financial newspapers or bid quotations received from securities dealers. The fair value of certain state and municipal securities is not readily available through market sources other than dealer quotations, so fair value estimates are based on quoted market prices of similar instruments, adjusted for differences between the quoted instruments and the instruments being valued.
 
    SFAS No. 107 specifies that fair values should be calculated based on the value of one unit without regard to any premium or discount that may result from concentrations of ownership of a financial instrument, possible tax ramifications, or estimated transaction costs. Accordingly, these considerations have not been incorporated into the fair value estimates.
 
    Loans
 
    Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type such as commercial, mortgage, credit card and other consumer. Each loan category is further segmented into fixed and adjustable rate interest terms.
 
    The fair value of the various categories of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining average estimated maturities.
 
    The estimated maturity for mortgages is modified from the contractual terms to give consideration to management’s experience with prepayments. Management has made estimates of fair value discount rates that it believes to be reasonable. However, because there is no market for many of these financial instruments, management has no basis to determine whether the fair value presented below would be indicative of the value negotiated in an actual sale.
 
    The value of the loan portfolio is also discounted in consideration of the credit quality of the loan portfolio as would be the case between willing buyers and sellers. Particular emphasis has been given to loans on the subsidiary bank’s internal watch list. Valuation of these loans is based upon borrower performance, collateral values (including external appraisals), etc.
 
    Deposit Liabilities
 
    The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. Under the provision of SFAS No. 107 the fair value estimates for deposits does not include the benefit that results from the low cost funding provided by the deposit liabilities compared to the cost of borrowing funds in the market.
 
    Securities Sold Under Repurchase Agreements
 
    The securities sold under repurchase agreements are payable upon demand. For this reason the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

(18)   Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Continued
 
    Advances from FHLB
 
    The fair value of advances from the FHLB is based on information received from the FHLB.
 
    Commitments to Extend Credit, Standby Letters of Credit and Financial Guarantees Written
 
    Loan commitments are made to customers generally for a period not to exceed one year and at the prevailing interest rates in effect at the time the loan is closed. Commitments to extend credit related to construction loans are made for a period not to exceed six months with interest rates at the current market rate at the date of closing. In addition, standby letters of credit are issued for periods up to three years with rates to be determined at the date the letter of credit is funded. Fees are only charged for the construction loans and the standby letters of credit and the amounts unearned at December 31, 2004 and 2003 are insignificant. Accordingly, these commitments have no carrying value and management estimates the commitments to have no significant fair value.
 
    The carrying value and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at December 31, 2004 and 2003 are as follows:

                                 
    In Thousands  
    2004     2003

Unrecognized financial instruments:
                               
Commitments to extend credit
                       
Standby letters of credit
                       

    Limitations
 
    Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instruments. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

(18)   Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Continued
 
    Limitations, Continued
 
    Fair value estimates are based on estimating on-and-off-balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. For example, the Bank has a mortgage department that contributes net fee income annually. The mortgage department is not considered a financial instrument, and its value has not been incorporated into the fair value estimates. Other significant assets and liabilities that are not considered financial assets or liabilities include deferred tax assets and liabilities and property, plant and equipment. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in the estimates.
 
(19)   Earnings Per Share (EPS)
 
    Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128 “Earnings Per Share” established uniform standards for computing and presenting earnings per share. The computation of basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted earnings per share for the Company begins with the basic earnings per share plus the effect of common shares contingently issuable from stock options. Shares and earnings per share data for 2003 and 2002 have been restated to reflect a 2 for 1 stock split effective January 1, 2003.
 
    The following is a summary of components comprising basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS):

Diluted earnings per common share
  $ 4.38       4.63       4.80  
 
                 

(20)   Stock Option Plan
 
    In April, 1997, the stockholders of the Company approved the First McMinnville Corporation 1997 Stock Option Plan (The “Stock Option Plan”). The Stock Option Plan provides for the granting of stock options and authorizes the issuance of common stock upon the exercise of such options for up to 115,000 shares of common stock to directors and employees of the Company.
 
    Under the Stock Option Plan awards may be granted in the form of incentive stock options or nonstatutory stock options, and are exercisable for up to ten years following the date such option awards are granted. Exercise prices of incentive stock options must be equal to or greater than 100% of the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date.

(20)   Stock Option Plan, Continued
 
    SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation”, as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure”, sets forth the method for recognition of cost of plans similar to those of the Company. As is permitted, management has elected to continue accounting for the plan under APB Opinion 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for its plan. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for the stock option plan. However, under SFAS No. 123, the Company is required to make proforma disclosures as if cost had been recognized in accordance with the pronouncement. Had compensation cost for the Company’s stock option plan been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under the plan consistent with the method of SFAS No. 123, the Company’s net earnings and basic earnings per common share and diluted earnings per common share would have been reduced to the proforma amounts indicated below:

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The purpose of this discussion is to provide insight into the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Management’s discussion of the Company, and management’s analysis of the Company’s operations and prospects, and other matters, may include forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other provisions of federal and state securities laws. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying such forward-looking statements contained in this Report are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate and, accordingly, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements included herein will prove to be accurate. The use of such words as expect, anticipate, forecast, and comparable terms should be understood by the reader to indicate that the statement is “forward-looking” and thus subject to change in a manner that can be unpredictable. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from the results anticipated, but not guaranteed, in this Report, include (without limitation) economic and social conditions, competition for loans, mortgages, and other financial services and products, changes in interest rates, unforeseen changes in liquidity, results of operations and financial condition affecting the Company’s customers, as well as other risks that cannot be accurately quantified or completely identified. Many factors affecting the Company’s financial condition and profitability, including changes in economic conditions, the volatility of interest rates, political events and competition from other providers of financial services simply cannot be predicted. Because these factors are unpredictable and beyond the Company’s control, earnings may fluctuate from period to period. The purpose of this type of information is to provide readers with information relevant to understanding and assessing the financial condition and results of operations of the Company, and not to predict the future or to guarantee results. The Company is unable to predict the types of circumstances, conditions, and factors that can cause anticipated results to change. The Company undertakes no obligation to publish revised forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of changes or unanticipated events, circumstances, or results.

General

First McMinnville Corporation is a one bank holding company which owns 100% of First National Bank of McMinnville. First National Bank of McMinnville (“Bank”) is a community bank headquartered in McMinnville, Tennessee serving Warren County, Tennessee as its primary market area. The Company serves as a financial intermediary whereby its profitability is determined to a large degree by the interest spread it achieves and the successful measurement of risks. The Company’s management believes that Warren County offers an environment for continued growth and the Company’s target market is local consumers, professionals and small businesses. The Company offers a wide range of banking services, including checking, savings, and money market deposit accounts, certificates of deposits, and loans for consumer, commercial and real estate purposes. The Company also offers custodial and trust services. Deposit instruments in the form of demand deposits, money market savings and certificates of deposits are offered to customers to establish the Company’s core deposit base. In 2001, the Bank formed a subsidiary, First Community Title & Escrow Company. The new subsidiary began operations in 2002.

In a market such as Warren County, management believes there is an opportunity to increase the loan portfolio. The Company has targeted commercial business lending, commercial and residential real estate lending, and consumer lending as areas of focus. It is the Company’s intention to limit the size of its loan portfolio to approximately 75% to 80% of deposit balances; however, the quality of lending opportunities as well as the desired loan to deposit ratio will influence the size of the loan portfolio. As a practice, the Company generates substantially all of its own loans and occasionally buys participations from other institutions. The Company attempts, to the extent practical, to maintain a loan portfolio which is capable of adjustment to swings in interest rates. The Company’s policy is to have a diverse loan portfolio. At December 31, 2004, the nursery industry constituted the largest single industry segment and accounted for $10,120,000 (6.79% of the Company’s loan portfolio) as compared to $10,087,000 or 6.79% in 2003. No other segment accounted for more than 10% of the portfolio. Management is not aware of any adverse trends or expected losses in respect to the nursery industry.

Critical Accounting Policies

The accounting principles we follow and our methods of applying these principles conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and with general practices within the banking industry. In connection with the application of those principles to the determination of our allowance for loan losses (ALL), we have made judgments and estimates which have significantly impacted our financial position and results of operations.

Our management assesses the adequacy of the ALL on a regular basis. This assessment includes procedures to estimate the ALL and test the adequacy and appropriateness of the resulting balance. The ALL consists of two portions (1) an allocated amount representative of specifically identified credit exposure and exposures readily predictable by historical or comparative experience, and (2) an unallocated amount representative of inherent loss which is not readily identifiable. Even though the ALL is composed of two components, the entire allowance is available to absorb any credit losses.

Our method of determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses begins with the specific review of large credits. This review is performed by the loan review officer who reports to the loan review committee appointed by the Board of Directors. This review includes a review of current financial information to monitor on-going ability to service the credit, a review of the collateral securing the credit and a review of payment history. If during this review it is determined that the potential for loss exists, a specific reserve is established on a loan by loan basis.

We take into consideration industry concentrations, such as the nursery industry, historical and current economic conditions, and discussion with banking regulators when calculating an unallocated amount to the allowance.

The unallocated amount is particularly subjective and does not lend itself to the exact mathematical calculation. We use the unallocated amount to absorb inherent losses which may exist as of the balance sheet date for such matters as changes in the local or national economy, the depth or experience of the lending staff, any concentrations of credit in any particularly industry group, and new banking laws or regulations. After we assess applicable factors, we evaluate the aggregate unallocated amount based on our management’s experience.

We then test the resulting ALL balance by comparing the balance in the allowance account to historical trends and peer information. Our management then evaluates the result of the procedures performed, including the result of our testing, and concludes on the appropriateness of the balance of the ALL in its entirety. The loan review and the finance committee of our board of directors review the assessment prior to the filing of financial information.

Capital Resources, Capital and Dividends

Regulations of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) establish required minimum capital levels for the Bank. Under these regulations, national banks must maintain certain capital levels as a percentage of average total assets (leverage capital ratio) and as a percentage of total risk-based assets (risk-based capital ratio). Under the risk-based requirements, various categories of assets and commitments are assigned a percentage related to credit risk ranging from 0% for assets backed by the full faith and credit of the United States to 100% for loans other than residential real estate loans and certain off-balance sheet commitments. Total capital is characterized as either Tier 1 capital — common stockholders’ equity, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and a limited amount of cumulative perpetual preferred — or total risk-based capital which includes the allowance for loan losses up to 1.25% of risk weighted assets, perpetual preferred stock, subordinated debt and various other hybrid capital instruments, subject to various limits. Goodwill is not includable in Tier 1 or total risk-based capital. The Company and its national bank subsidiary must maintain a Tier 1 capital to risk-based assets of at least 4.0%, a Total risk-based capital to risk-based assets ratio of at least 8.0% and a leverage capital ratio defined as Tier 1 capital to adjusted total average assets for the most recent quarter of at least 4%. The same ratios are also required in order for a national bank to be considered “adequately capitalized” under the OCC’s “prompt corrective action” regulations, which impose certain operating restrictions on institutions which are not adequately capitalized. The Company has a Tier 1 risk based ratio of 29.79%, a total risk-based capital ratio of 30.86% and a leverage capital ratio of 16.17%, and was therefore within the “well capitalized” category under the regulations. The subsidiary bank’s ratios were substantially the same as those setforth for the Company.

Capital Resources, Capital and Dividends, Continued

Dividends of $1,824,000 and $1,774,000 were declared during 2004 and 2003, respectively. Principally because of the high percent of equity capital, the return on equity is lower than banks in the Company’s peer group. Cash dividends are anticipated to be increased in 2005 if profits increase. The dividend payout ratio (dividends declared divided by net earnings) was 39.2%, 36.2% and 33.0% in 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. No material changes in the mix or cost of capital is anticipated in the foreseeable future.

The dividends paid by the Company are funded by dividends received by the Company from the Bank. The Bank is limited by law, regulation and prudence as to the amount of dividends it can pay. At December 31, 2004, under the most restrictive of these regulatory limits, the Bank could declare in 2005 cash dividends in an aggregate amount of up to approximately $9 million, plus any 2005 net earnings, without prior approval of the Comptroller of the Currency. Because of sound business considerations and other Regulatory capital requirements, it is unlikely that the Company would ever pay a significant portion of this amount as dividends.

Financial Condition

During 2004, total assets increased $4,135,000 or 1.36% from $304,399,000 at December 31, 2003 to $308,534,000 at December 31, 2004. Loans, net of allowance for possible loan losses, increased from $146,611,000 to $147,300,000 or .47% during fiscal year 2004. Increases in mortgage loans and construction loans totaling $4,254,000 offset decreases in commercial and consumer loans of $3,658,000 resulted in the net increase in loans.

Securities increased 4.66% from $138,856,000 at December 31, 2003 to $145,325,000 at December 31, 2004. The carrying value of securities of U.S. Treasury and other U.S. Government obligations increased $9,444,000, obligations of state and political subdivisions decreased $2,189,000, corporate and other securities decreased $185,000 and there was a decrease in mortgage backed securities of $601,000.

At December 31, 2004 the market value of the Company’s securities portfolio was greater than its amortized cost by $824,000 (.56%). At December 31, 2003 the market value of the Company’s securities portfolio was greater than its amortized cost by $2,368,000 (1.71%). The weighted average yield (stated on a tax-equivalent basis, assuming a Federal income tax rate of 34%) of the securities at December 31, 2004 was 3.55% as compared to an average yield of 4.65% at December 31, 2003.

The Company applies the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 (SFAS No. 115), “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities”. Under the provisions of the Statement, securities are to be classified in three categories and accounted for as follows:

  •   Debt securities that the enterprise has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity securities and reported at amortized cost.
 
  •   Debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings; and
 
  •   Debt and equity securities not classified as either held-to-maturity securities or trading securities are classified as available-for-sale securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

The Company’s classification of securities as of December 31, 2004 is as follows:

                                 
    Held-To-Maturity     Available-For-Sale  
            Estimated             Estimated

Obligations of states and political subdivisions
    33,522       34,966       1,250       1,260  
Corporate and other securities
    2,992       3,120

  $ 57,126       58,547       88,796       88,199  
 
                       

During 2002 the net increase in capital included $714,000 which represents the unrealized appreciation in securities available-for-sale of $1,158,000 net of applicable taxes of $444,000. During the year ended December 31, 2003, the net increase in capital included $606,000 decrease which represents the unrealized loss on securities available-for-sale of $982,000 net of applicable taxes of $376,000. During 2004 the net increase in capital included $520,000 which represents the unrealized loss on securities available-for-sale of $843,000 net of applicable taxes of $323,000.

The increase in assets of $4,135,000 in 2004 was due primarily to an increase in earning assets net of a decrease in cash and due from banks. Total deposits increased from $224,221,000 at December 31, 2003 to $226,588,000 at December 31, 2004 representing an increase of 1.06%. Demand deposits decreased .13% from $21,985,000 at December 31, 2003 to $21,956,000 at December 31, 2004. Negotiable order of withdrawal accounts, money market and other savings deposits increased $2,372,000 or 3.19%. Certificates of deposit and individual retirements accounts increased $24,000 or .02%. The subsidiary bank has unused lines of credit of $20,000,000 and the Company has an unused line of credit of $2,000,000 at December 31, 2004.

The Company’s allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2004 was $1,816,000 as compared to $1,909,000 at December 31, 2003. Non-performing loans amounted to $8,000 at December 31, 2004 compared to $312,000 at December 31, 2003. Non-performing loans are loans which have been placed on non-accrual status, loans 90 days past due plus renegotiated loans. Net charge-offs were $93,000 during 2004. Net charge-offs were $58,000 and $76,000 during 2003 and 2002. A provision for loan losses for 2004 was not necessary. The provision was $59,000 in 2003 and $180,000 in 2002, respectively.

The allowance for possible loan losses, amounting to $1,816,000 at December 31, 2004, represents 1.22% of total loans outstanding. At December 31, 2003, the allowance for possible loan losses represented 1.29% of total loans outstanding. Management has in place a system to identify and monitor problem loans as further discussed under “Critical Accounting Policies”. Management believes the allowance for possible loan losses at December 31, 2004 to be adequate.

Contractual Obligations

The Company has the following contractual obligations as of December 31, 2004:

Total
  $             1,000             1,000  
 
                             

Long-term debt contractual obligations consist of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank. The Company leases land for certain branch facilities and automatic teller machine locations. Future minimum rental payments required under the terms of these noncancellable leases are included in operating lease obligations.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

At December 31, 2004, the Company had unfunded commitments to extend credit of $13.1 million and outstanding standby letters of credit of $2.2 million. Because these commitments generally have fixed expiration dates and many will expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment level does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. If needed to fund these outstanding commitments, the Company has the ability to liquidate Federal funds sold or securities available-for-sale or on a short-term basis to borrow and purchase Federal funds from other financial institutions. Additionally, the Company could sell participations in these or other loans to correspondent banks. As mentioned above, the Company has been able to fund its ongoing liquidity needs through its core deposit base, loan payments and its investment security maturities.

Liquidity

Liquidity represents the ability to efficiently and economically accommodate decreases in deposits and other liabilities, as well as fund increases in assets. A Company has liquidity potential when it has the ability to obtain sufficient funds in a timely manner at a reasonable cost. The availability of funds through deposits, the purchase and sales of securities in the investment portfolio, the use of funds for consumer and commercial loans and the access to debt markets affect the liquidity of the Company. The Company’s loan to deposit ratio was approximately 65.81% and 66.24% at December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.

The Company’s investment portfolio, as represented above, consists of earning assets that provide interest income.

Funds management decisions must reflect management’s intent to maintain profitability in both the immediate and long-term earnings. The Company’s rate sensitivity position has an important impact on earnings. Senior management of the Company meets monthly to analyze the rate sensitivity position of the Bank. These meetings focus on the spread between the subsidiary bank’s cost of funds and interest yields generated primarily through loans and investments.

Liquidity, Continued

The Company presently maintains a liability sensitive position over the next six months and over the next twelve months. Liability sensitivity means that more of the Company’s liabilities are capable of repricing over certain time frames than assets. The interest rates associated with these liabilities may not actually change over this period but are capable of changing. For example, the six month gap is a picture of the possible repricing over a six month period. The following table shows the rate sensitivity gaps for different time periods as of December 31, 2004:

Historically, there has been no significant reduction in immediately withdrawable accounts such as negotiable order of withdrawal, money market demand, demand deposit and regular savings accounts. Management does not anticipate that there will be significant withdrawals from these accounts in the future.

It is anticipated that with present maturities, the anticipated growth in deposit base, and the efforts of management in its asset/liability management program, liquidity will not pose a problem in the foreseeable future. At the present time there are no known trends or any known commitments, demands, events or uncertainties that will result in or that are reasonably likely to result in the Company’s liquidity changing in any material way.

Results of Operations

Net earnings for the year ended December 31, 2004 were $4,650,000 a decrease of $249,000 or 5.08% from fiscal year 2003. Net earnings for the year ended December 31, 2003 were $4,899,000, a decrease of $145,000 or 2.87% from fiscal year 2002. Basic earnings per common share was $4.46 in 2004, $4.70 in 2003 and $4.85 in 2002. Diluted earnings per common share were $4.38, $4.63 and $4.80 in 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Average earning assets increased $3,998,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. Average earning assets increased $16,279,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2002. Additionally, the net interest spread decreased from 3.59% in 2003 to 3.43% in 2004. The net interest spread was 3.79% in 2002. Net interest spread is defined as the effective yield on earning assets less the effective cost of deposits and borrowed funds, as calculated on a fully taxable equivalent basis. Average interest bearing liabilities increased $112,000 in 2004. The cost of interest bearing deposits decreased 21 basis points from 2.02% to 1.81% while the weighted average yield on earning assets decreased 37 basis points from 5.61% to 5.24%. The decrease in the net interest spread in 2004 was primarily attributable to an increase in the cost of funds and a decrease in the return on earning assets. There was an increase in average non-interest bearing demand deposits in 2004 of $6,000.

Net interest income before provision for loan losses for 2004 totaled $10,731,000 as compared to $11,095,000 for 2003 and $11,366,000 for 2002. A provision for loan losses was not necessary for 2004. The provision was $59,000 in 2003 and $180,000 in 2002, respectively. Net charge-offs in 2004 were $93,000 as compared to net charge-offs of $58,000 in 2003. The 2004 charge-offs are unrelated to the nursery business and management does not consider the charge-off’s to be a trend.

Non-interest income decreased by 12.20% to $727,000 in 2004 from $828,000 in 2003. Non-interest income totaled $665,000 in 2002.

Non-interest expense decreased 1.11% to $4,743,000 in 2004 from $4,796,000 in 2003. Non-interest expense was $4,509,000 in 2002. Non-interest expense which includes, among other things, salaries and employee benefits, occupancy expenses, furniture and fixtures expenses, data processing, Federal Deposit Insurance premiums, supplies and general operating costs increased commensurate with the continued growth of the Company. The decrease in 2004 was primarily attributable to a decrease in state franchise tax. Other non-interest expense decreased $108,000 in 2004. The non-interest expense increased approximately 6.37% from 2002 to 2003 and was due primarily to increases in salaries and employee benefits.

Management is not aware of any current recommendations by the regulatory authorities which, if implemented, would have a material effect on the Company’s liquidity, capital resources or operations.

Impact of Inflation

Unlike most industrial companies, the assets and liabilities of financial institutions such as the Company are primarily monetary in nature. Therefore, interest rates have a more significant effect on the Company’s performance since they impact both interest revenues and interest costs.

Supervision and Regulation

Bank Holding Company Act of 1956. As a bank holding company, the Company is subject to regulation under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 (the “Act”), and the regulations adopted by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Board”) under the Act. The Company is required to file reports with, and is subject to examination by, the Board. The subsidiary bank is a national chartered bank and is therefore subject to the supervision of and is regularly examined by the Officer of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”). The subsidiary bank is also required to file reports with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and is subject to FDIC regulations.

Under the Act, a bank holding company may not directly or indirectly acquire the ownership or control of more than five percent of the voting shares or substantially all of the assets of any company, including a bank, without the prior approval of the Board. In addition, bank holding companies are generally prohibited under the Act from engaging in non-banking activities, subject to certain exceptions. Under the Act, the Board is authorized to approve the ownership by a bank holding company of shares of any company whose activities have been determined by the Board to be so closely related to banking or to managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company’s primary component of market risk is interest rate volatility. Fluctuations in interest rates will ultimately impact both the level of income and expense recorded on a large portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities, and the market value of all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, other than those which possess a short term to maturity. Based upon the nature of the Company’s operations, the Company is not subject to foreign currency exchange or commodity price risk.

Interest rate risk (sensitivity) management focuses on the earnings risk associated with changing interest rates. Management seeks to maintain profitability in both immediate and long term earnings through funds management/interest rate risk management. The Company’s rate sensitivity position has an important impact on earnings. Senior management of the Company meets monthly to analyze the rate sensitivity position. These meetings focus on the spread between the cost of funds and interest yields generated primarily through loans and investments.

The following table provides information about the Company’s financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates as of December 31, 2004.

I.   Distribution of Assets, Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity:
    Interest Rates and Interest Differential
 
    The Schedule which follows indicates the average balances for each major balance sheet item, an analysis of net interest income and the change in interest income and interest expense attributable to changes in volume and changes in rates.
 
    The difference between interest income on interest-earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities is net interest income, which is the Company’s gross margin. Analysis of net interest income is more meaningful when income from tax-exempt earning assets is adjusted to a tax equivalent basis. Accordingly, the following schedule includes a tax equivalent adjustment of tax-exempt earning assets, assuming a weighted average Federal income tax rate of 34%.
 
    In this Schedule “change due to volume” is the change in volume multiplied by the interest rate for the prior year. “Change due to rate” is the change in interest rate multiplied by the volume for the prior year. Changes in interest income and expense not due solely to volume or rate changes have been allocated to the “changes due to volume” and “change due to rate” in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amounts of the changes in each category.
 
    Non-accrual loans, if any, have been included in their respective loan category. Loan fees of $324,000, $362,000 and $456,000 for 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively, are included in loan income and represent an adjustment of the yield on these loans.

      The accrual of interest income is discontinued when it is determined that collection of interest is less than probable or the collection of any amount of principal is doubtful. The decision to place a loan on a non-accrual status is based on an evaluation of the borrower’s financial condition, collateral liquidation value, economic and business conditions and other factors that affect the borrower’s ability to pay. At the time a loan is placed on a non-accrual status, the accrued but unpaid interest is also evaluated as to collectibility. If collectibility is doubtful, the unpaid interest is charged off. Thereafter, interest on non-accrual loans is recognized only as received. There were no loans on non-accrual status at December 31, 2004, 2003, 2002, 2001 and 2000.
 
      At December 31, 2004, loans totaling $8,184,000 were included in the Company’s internal classified loan list. Of these loans, $2,525,000 are real estate, $5,621,000 are commercial and $38,000 are consumer. The estimated collateral valuations received by management relating to these loans total approximately $18,586,000 ($2,880,000 related to real estate, $15,651,000 related to commercial and $55,000 related to consumer loans). Such loans are listed as classified when information obtained about possible credit problems of the borrower has prompted management to question the ability of the borrower to comply with the repayment terms of the loan agreement. The loan classifications do not represent or result from trends or uncertainties which management expects will materially impact future operating results, liquidity or capital resources.
 
      At December 31, 2004 and 2003, there were loans to customers in the nursery industry totaling approximately $10,120,000 and $10,087,000, respectively, which represents an industry concentration of approximately 6.79% of total loans for 2004 and 2003. Loan concentrations are amounts loaned to a multiple number of borrowers engaged in similar activities which would cause them to be similarly impacted by economic or other conditions.
 
      At December 31, 2004, other real estate totaled $190,000. This balance consists of four pieces of residential real estate with an estimated market value of $136,000 and one tract of vacant land with an estimated market value of $65,000.
 
      At December 31, 2003, other real estate totaled $220,000. This balance consists of four pieces of residential real estate with an estimated market value of $237,000.

IV.   Summary of Loan Loss Experience, Continued:

The allowance for possible loan losses is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb possible losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible. The provision for possible loan losses charged to operating expense is based on past loan loss experience and other factors which, in management’s judgment, deserve current recognition in estimating possible loan losses. Such other factors considered by management include growth and composition of the loan portfolio, review of specific loan problems, the relationship of the allowance for possible loan losses to outstanding loans, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral and current economic conditions that may affect the borrower’s ability to pay.

Management conducts a continuous review of all loans that are delinquent, previously charged down or loans which are determined to be potentially uncollectible. Loan classifications are reviewed periodically by a person independent of the lending function. The Board of Directors periodically reviews the adequacy of the allowance for possible loan losses.

The breakdown of the allowance by loan category is based in part on evaluations of specific loans, past history and economic conditions within specific industries or geographic areas. Accordingly, since all of these conditions are subject to change, the allocation is not necessarily indicative of the breakdown of the future losses.

The following detail provides a breakdown of the allocation of the allowance for possible loan losses:

VI.   Return on Equity and Assets, Continued:

The Company’s primary component of market risk is interest rate volatility. Fluctuations in interest rates will ultimately impact both the level of income and expense recorded on a large portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities, and the market value of all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, other than those which possess a short term to maturity. Based upon the nature of the Company’s operations, the Company is not subject to foreign currency exchange or commodity price risk.

Interest rate risk (sensitivity) management focuses on the earnings risk associated with changing interest rates. Management seeks to maintain profitability in both immediate and long term earnings through funds management/interest rate risk management. The Company’s rate sensitivity position has an important impact on earnings. Senior management of the Company meets monthly to analyze the rate sensitivity position. These meetings focus on the spread between the cost of funds and interest yields generated primarily through loans and investments.
