NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies
The unaudited consolidated financial statements in this report have been prepared in
conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial
information and with the instructions of Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Mountain National Bancshares, Inc., a
Tennessee corporation (the Company), and its subsidiaries. The Companys principal subsidiary is
Mountain National Bank, a national association (the Bank). All material intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course
of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and
an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there are
now such matters that will have a material effect on the financial statements.
Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Companys annual audited
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted from the unaudited financial statements in this report. Consequently, the
quarterly financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes included herein and the
notes to the audited financial statements presented in the Companys 2008 Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. The unaudited quarterly financial statements
reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation
of the results of operations for interim periods presented. All such adjustments were of a normal,
recurring nature. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the complete fiscal year.
Note 2. New Accounting Standards
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy
of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162 . This
statement modifies the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) hierarchy by establishing
only two levels of GAAP, authoritative and nonauthoritative accounting literature. Effective July
2009, the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC), also known collectively as the
Codification, is considered the single source of authoritative U.S. accounting and reporting
standards, except for additional authoritative rules and interpretive releases issued by the SEC.
Nonauthoritative guidance and literature would include, among other things, FASB Concepts
Statements, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Issue Papers and Technical Practice
Aids and accounting textbooks. The Codification was developed to organize GAAP pronouncements by
topic so that users can more easily access authoritative accounting guidance. It is organized by
topic, subtopic, section, and paragraph, each of which is identified by a numerical designation.
FASB ASC 105-10 Generally Accepted Accounting Principles became applicable beginning in third
quarter of 2009. All accounting references have been updated, and therefore SFAS references have
been replaced with ASC references except for SFAS references that have not been integrated into the
codification.

Table of Contents
In June 2009, the FASB issued new guidance impacting FAS ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing,
which provides for the removal of the qualifying special purpose entity (QSPE) concept from GAAP,
resulting in the evaluation of all former QSPEs for consolidation on and after January 1, 2010. It
also modifies the criteria for achieving sale accounting for transfers of financial assets and
defines the term participating interest to establish specific conditions for reporting a transfer
of a portion of a financial asset as a sale, and provides that a transferor should recognize and
initially measure at fair value all assets obtained (including a transferors beneficial interest)
and liabilities incurred as a result of a transfer of
financial assets accounted for as a sale. This guidance also requires enhanced disclosures
which are generally consistent with, and supersede, the disclosures previously required, and is
effective prospectively for new transfers of financial assets occurring in fiscal years beginning
after November 15, 2009, and in interim periods within those fiscal years. The disclosure
requirements should be applied to transfers that occurred both before and after its effective date,
with comparative disclosures required only for periods subsequent to initial adoption for those
disclosures not previously required under ASC 860-10-65-2. This statement is not expected to have a
significant impact on the Companys financial condition or results of operations.
In June 2009, the FASB issued new guidance impacting FASB ASC 810, which revises the criteria
for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (VIE) by replacing the
prior quantitative-based risks and rewards test with a qualitative analysis. While this update
retains the guidance that requires a reassessment of whether an entity is a VIE only when certain
triggering events occur, it adds an additional criterion which triggers a reassessment of an
entitys status when an event occurs such that the holders of the equity investment at risk, as a
group, lose the power from voting rights or similar rights of those investments to direct the
activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entitys economic performance.
Additionally, this new guidance requires continual reconsideration of conclusions regarding which
interest holder is the VIEs primary beneficiary, separate presentation on the face of the balance
sheet of the assets of a consolidated VIE that can only be used to settle the VIEs obligations and
the liabilities of a consolidated VIE for which creditors or beneficial interest holders have no
recourse to the general credit of the primary beneficiary, and enhanced disclosures which are
generally consistent with, and supersede, the disclosures previously required. This update is
effective for periods beginning after November 15, 2009, and requires reevaluation under its
amended consolidation requirements as of the beginning of the first annual period that begins after
November 15, 2009. If consolidation of a VIE is required upon initial adoption, the assets,
liabilities, and noncontrolling interests of the VIE should be measured at their carrying amounts
as if this guidance had been applied from inception of the VIE, with any difference between the net
amounts recognized and the amount of any previously recognized interests reflected as a cumulative
effect adjustment to undivided profits. However, if determining the carrying amounts is not
practicable, the assets, liabilities, and noncontrolling interests of the VIE may be measured at
fair value. Further, if determining the carrying amounts is not practicable, and if the activities
of the VIE are primarily related to securitizations or other forms of asset-backed financings and
the assets of the VIE can be used only to settle obligations of the entity, then the assets and
liabilities of the VIE may be measured at their unpaid principal balances. The fair value option
provided under FASB ASC 825 may also be elected for financial assets and financial liabilities
requiring consolidation as a result of initial adoption, provided that the election is made for all
eligible financial assets and financial liabilities of the VIE. If initial application of this new
guidance results in deconsolidation of a VIE, any retained interest in the VIE should be measured
at its carrying value as if it had been applied from inception of the VIE. Comparative disclosures
are required only for periods subsequent to initial adoption for those disclosures not previously
required under ASC 860-10-65-2. This statement is not expected to have a significant impact on the
Companys financial condition or results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB issued an update to FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and
Disclosures. FASB ASC 820-10-65-4 provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in
accordance with FASB ASC 820 when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have
decreased significantly. FASB ASC 820-10-65-4 also provides guidance on identifying circumstances
that indicate a transaction is not orderly. These provisions were effective April 1, 2009. There
was no impact as a result of adopting this standard.
In April 2009, the FASB issued an update to FASB ASC 825, Financial Instruments, which
requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in interim reporting periods of
publicly traded companies that were previously only required to be disclosed in annual financial
statements. These provisions were effective April 1, 2009. As it amends only the disclosure
requirements about fair value of
financial instruments in interim periods, the adoption had no impact on the Companys
financial condition or results of operations.

Table of Contents
We adopted the updated provisions of FASB ASC 855, Subsequent Events, during the period ended
June 30, 2009. FASB ASC 855 establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of
events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued. The
Company has included required disclosures in our financial statements.
In April 2009, the FASB issued an update to ASC 320, Investments Debt and Equity Securities,
that amends current other-than-temporary impairment guidance in GAAP for debt securities to make
the guidance more operational and to improve the presentation and disclosure of
other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in the financial statements. This
update does not amend existing recognition and measurement guidance related to other-than-temporary
impairments of equity securities. The updated provisions of FASB ASC 320-10-65-1 were effective for
the Companys interim period ending on June 30, 2009. There was no impact from the adoption of this
update on the Companys financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In August 2009, the FASB issued guidance impacting FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and
Disclosures. The update is effective for the first reporting period including interim periods
after the issuance. The update reduces potential ambiguity in financial reporting when measuring
the fair value of liabilities by providing clarification for circumstances in which quoted prices
in an active market for the identical liability is not available. A reporting entity is required
to measure fair value using one or more of the following techniques: A valuation technique that
uses the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset, quoted prices for similar
liabilities or similar liabilities when traded as an asset. Another valuation technique consistent
with the principals of FASB ASC 820 would be an income approach such as a present value technique
or a market approach based on the amount at the measurement date that the reporting entity would
pay to transfer the identical liability or would receive to enter into the identical liability.
The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Companys results of operations
or financial position.

Other-Than-Temporary-Impairment
Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) at least on a
quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation.
Investment securities classified as available for sale or held-to-maturity are generally
evaluated for OTTI under the provisions of ASC 320-10, Investments Debt and Equity Securities.
In determining OTTI, management considers many factors, including: (1) the length of time and
the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and
near-term prospects of the issuer, (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic
conditions, and (4) whether the entity has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than
not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. The assessment
of whether an other-than-temporary decline exists involves a high degree of subjectivity and
judgment and is based on the information available to management at a point in time.
When OTTI occurs, the amount of the OTTI recognized in earnings depends on whether an
entity intends to sell the security or it is more likely than not it will be required to
sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, less any current-period credit
loss. If an entity intends to sell or it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the
security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, less any current-period credit loss,
the OTTI shall be recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the investments
amortized cost basis and its fair value at the balance sheet date. If an entity does not intend
to sell the security and it is not more likely than not that the entity will be required to
sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period loss,
the OTTI shall be separated into the amount representing the credit loss and the amount related
to all other factors. The amount of the total OTTI related to the credit loss is determined
based on the present value of cash flows expected to be collected and is recognized in
earnings. The amount of the total OTTI related to other factors is recognized in other
comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. The previous amortized cost basis less the OTTI
recognized in earnings becomes the new amortized cost basis of the investment.
As of September 30, 2009, the Companys security portfolio consisted of 174 securities, 7 of
which were in an unrealized loss position. The majority of unrealized losses are related to the
Companys obligations of states and political subdivisions and U.S. Government agency securities,
as discussed below.
Unrealized losses on obligations of states and political subdivisions and U.S. Government
agency securities have not been recognized into income because the issuer(s) bonds are of high
credit quality, the decline in fair value is largely due to changes in interest rates and other
market conditions, and because the Company does not have the intent to sell these securities and it
is likely that it will not be required to sell the securities before their anticipated recovery.
The Company does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September
30, 2009.
Other Securities
On May 1, 2009, Silvertons bank subsidiary, Silverton Bank, was placed into receivership by
the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency after Silverton Banks capital deteriorated
significantly in the first quarter of 2009, and on June 5, 2009 Silverton filed a petition for
bankruptcy. The Company does not anticipate that it will recover any of the Banks investment in
either the common securities or trust preferred securities issued by Silverton or its affiliated
trust. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $347,368, which represents the
Companys full investment in the securities, during the first quarter of 2009.
Note 4. Common Stock Activity and Stock Options
On July 6, 2007, the Company announced the authorization by the Board of Directors of a
repurchase plan of up to $500,000 of the Companys common stock prior to June 27, 2008. On July 7,
2008, the Company announced the first expansion of this share repurchase plan. Under the
expansion, an additional $300,000 in repurchases of Company common stock was approved, over and
above the initial $500,000 authorization. On October 24, 2008, the Company announced a second
expansion of the share repurchase program. The second expansion authorizes the repurchase of an
additional $700,000 of Company common stock, bringing the total amount of the repurchase plan
including all expansions to $1,500,000. The expiration date of the ongoing repurchase plan was
extended to June 27, 2009. However, during the fourth quarter of 2008, the authorized repurchase
amount was exhausted.

Note 5. Net Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share
Net earnings (loss) per common share are based on the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share include the effects of potential
common shares outstanding, including shares issuable upon the exercise of options for which the
exercise price is lower than the market price of the common stock, during the period.
The following is a summary of the basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share calculation for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008:

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, there were options for the
purchase of 56,018 and 55,741 shares, respectively, outstanding during each time period that were
antidilutive. These shares were accordingly excluded from the calculations above.
During the three months ended September 30, 2009, there were options for the purchase of
130,193 shares that were antidilutive and excluded from the calculations above.
Potential common shares that would have the effect of decreasing diluted loss per share are
considered to be antidilutive and therefore not included in calculating diluted loss per share.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, there were 24,421 shares excluded from this
calculation although the exercise price for such shares underlying options was less than the fair
value of the Companys common stock.

Troubled debt restructures (TDRs) at September 30, 2009 totaled approximately
$31,608,000 which is 54.1% of total impaired loans. The TDRs related primarily to construction and
development loans totaling approximately $11,030,000, or 18.9% of impaired loans, 1-4 family
residential loans totaling approximately $10,850,000, or 18.6% of impaired loans, and commercial
real estate loans totaling approximately $8,687,000, or 14.9% of impaired loans. The TDRs are due
to lack of real estate sales and weak or insufficient cash flows of the guarantors of the loans due
to the current economic climate. The majority of the TDRs are for a limited term, in most
instances, of one to two years, and include an interest rate reduction during this term.

Note 7. Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) is made up of net income (loss) and other comprehensive income
(loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) is made up of changes in the unrealized gain (loss) on
securities available for sale. Comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2009 was $2,176,562 and $1,534,961, respectively, as compared to $2,046,084 and $2,876,576,
respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008.
Note 8. Fair Value
ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid
to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820
also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable
inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard
describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets
that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices
for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other
inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
16
Table of Contents
Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entitys own
assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or
liability.
A description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair
value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation
hierarchy, is set forth below.
In general, fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where available. If such quoted
market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that
primarily use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters. Valuation adjustments may be made to
ensure that financial instruments are recorded at fair value. While management believes the
Companys valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants,
the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial
instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.
Investment Securities Available for Sale Securities classified as available for sale are
reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. For these securities, the Company obtains fair
value measurements from an independent service provider. The fair value measurements consider
observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U. S. Treasury
yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayments speeds, credit
information and the securities terms and conditions, among other things.
Impaired Loans Impaired loans are measured based on the present value of expected payments
using the loans original effective interest rate as the discount rate, the loans observable
market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. If the
recorded investment in an impaired loan exceeds the measure of fair value, a valuation allowance
may be established as a component of the allowance for loan losses or the expense is recognized as
a charge-off. Impaired loans are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.
Other Real Estate The fair value of other real estate is generally based on current
appraisals, comparable sales, and other estimates of value obtained principally from independent
sources, adjusted for estimated selling costs. At the time of foreclosure, any excess of the loan
balance over the fair value of the real estate held as collateral is treated as a charge against
the allowance for loan losses. Gains or losses on sale and any subsequent adjustments to the value
are recorded as a gain or loss on other real estate.

Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Non-Recurring Basis
Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, that is,
the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value
adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). The
following table summarizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis
as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs

At September 30, 2009, impaired loans, which are measured for impairment using the
present value of expected future cash flows or the fair value of collateral for collateral
dependent loans, had a carrying amount of $41,463,744, with a valuation allowance of $2,758,772
resulting in an additional provision for loan losses of $2,658,772 for the nine month period ended
September 30, 2009. During the three months ended September 30, 2009, an additional $482,579 was
charged to provision for loan losses for impaired loans. At December 31, 2008, impaired loans had a
carrying amount of $2,807,562, with a valuation allowance of $561,250 resulting in an additional
provision for loan losses of $561,250 for the year ended December 31, 2008.
The September 30, 2009 carrying amount of other real estate includes net valuation adjustments
of approximately ($386,000) and $182,000, respectively, for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2009. These valuation adjustments are charged to gain or loss on other real estate.
The fair value of other real estate is based upon appraisals performed by qualified, licensed
appraisers.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market
information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount
that could result from offering for sale at one time the Companys entire holdings of a particular
financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Companys
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; involve uncertainties and matters of
judgment; and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could
significantly affect the estimates. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented are not
intended to represent the underlying value of the Company.
19
Table of Contents
Fair value estimates are based on existing 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. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate
the fair value of each class of financial instruments:
Cash and cash equivalents:
For cash and cash equivalents, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Investment Securities:
The fair value of securities is estimated as previously described for securities available for
sale, and in a similar manner for securities held to maturity.
Restricted investments:
Restricted investments consist of Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal Reserve Bank stock. It is
not practicable to determine the fair value due to restrictions placed on the transferability of
the stock.
Loans:
The fair value of loans is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the
estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates, adjusted for credit risk and servicing
costs. The estimate of maturity is based on historical experience with repayments for each loan
classification, modified, as required, by an estimate of the effect of current economic and lending
conditions. The allowance for loan losses is considered a reasonable discount for credit risk.
Deposits:
The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as demand deposits, money market
accounts, and savings deposits, is equal to the amount payable on demand. The fair value of time
deposits is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is
estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase:
The estimated value of these liabilities, which are extremely short term, approximates their
carrying value.
Subordinated debentures:
For the subordinated debentures with a floating interest rate tied to LIBOR, the fair value is
based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the
most recent offering rates available for subordinated debentures of similar amounts and remaining
maturities.
Federal Home Loan Bank advances:
For FHLB advances the fair value is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows.
The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for FHLB advances of similar
amounts and remaining maturities.
Accrued interest receivable and payable:
The carrying amounts of accrued interest receivable and payable approximate their fair value.
20
Table of Contents
Commitments to extend credit, letters of credit and lines of credit:
The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into
similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present
creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers
the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair values
of these commitments are insignificant and are not included in the table below.
The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Companys financial instruments at
September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, not previously presented, are as follows (in thousands):

Note 9. Regulatory Matters
The Bank and Company are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by
the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain
mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could
have a direct material effect on the financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and
the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action applicable to the Bank, the Bank and Company
must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of 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.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank
and Company to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the
regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average
assets (as defined). In addition, the Companys and the Banks regulators may impose additional
capital requirements on financial institutions and their bank subsidiaries, like the Company and
the Bank, beyond those provided for statutorily, which standards may be in addition to, and require
higher levels of capital, than the general capital adequacy guidelines. Management believes, as of
September 30, 2009, that the Bank and Company met all capital adequacy requirements to which it is
subject.
21
Table of Contents
As a result of a regulatory examination during the 2009 first quarter, the Bank made certain
commitments to its primary federal regulator during the second quarter of 2009, including
commitments to, among other things, implement a written program to reduce the high level of credit
risk in the Bank including strengthening credit underwriting and problem loan workouts and
collections, reduce its level of criticized assets, implement a concentration risk management
program related to commercial real estate lending, improve procedures related to the maintenance of
the Banks Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses, strengthen the Banks internal loan review program,
strengthen the Banks loan workout department, and develop a liquidity plan that improves the
Banks reliance on wholesale funding sources. The Company has already taken many of these actions
and does not believe compliance with these commitments will have a materially adverse impact on its
operations; however, failure to comply with these commitments may result in the Banks primary
federal regulator imposing additional limitations, restraints, conditions or commitments on the
Bank.
Note 10. Subsequent Events
Management has evaluated subsequent events through November 13, 2009, which is the date that
the Companys financial statements were issued. No material subsequent events have occurred since
September 30, 2009 that required recognition or disclosure in these financial statements.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis is designed to provide a better understanding of various
factors related to the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and its
subsidiaries, including the Bank. This section should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto which are contained in Item 1 above and the Companys Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, including Managements Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
To better understand financial trends and performance, the Companys management analyzes
certain key financial data in the following pages. This analysis and discussion reviews the
Companys results of operations and financial condition for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2009. This discussion is intended to supplement and highlight information contained
in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three- and
nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009. The Company has also provided some comparisons of the
financial data for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009, against the same
periods in 2008, as well as the Companys year-end results as of and for the year ended December
31, 2008, to illustrate significant changes in performance and the possible results of trends
revealed by that historical financial data. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our
financial statements and notes thereto, which are included under Item 1 above.

Overview
We conduct our operations, which consist primarily of traditional commercial banking
operations, through the Bank. Through the Bank we offer a broad range of traditional banking
services from our corporate headquarters in Sevierville, Tennessee, our Blount County regional
headquarters in Maryville, Tennessee, through eight additional branches in Sevier County,
Tennessee, and two additional branches in Blount County, Tennessee. Our banking operations
primarily target individuals and small
businesses in Sevier and Blount Counties and the surrounding area. The retail nature of the
Banks commercial banking operations allows for diversification of depositors and borrowers, and we
believe that the Bank is not dependent upon a single or a few customers. But, due to the
predominance of the tourism industry in Sevier County, a significant portion of the Banks
commercial loan portfolio is concentrated within that industry, including the residential real
estate and commercial real estate segments of that industry. The predominance of the tourism
industry also makes our business more seasonal in nature, particularly with respect to deposit
levels, than may be the case with banks in other market areas. The tourism industry in Sevier
County has been relatively strong during recent years and we anticipate that this trend will
continue during 2009. Additionally, we have a significant concentration of commercial and
residential real estate construction and development loans. Economic downturns relating to sales of
these types of properties can adversely affect the Banks operations creating risk independent of
the tourism industry.
In addition to our twelve existing locations, we own one property in Knox County for use in
future branch expansion. This property is not currently under development. We completed
construction of a branch on property located on the corner of Highway 411 and Highway 416 in Sevier
County during the second quarter of 2009. We regularly evaluate additional sites for future
expansion in and around our existing markets. Management does not anticipate construction of any
additional branches during the remainder of 2009.
The increase in net income between the three-month periods and decrease in net income between
the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 was as follows:

Net Income (loss) |
$ | (434,522 | ) | $ | 2,587,921 | $ | (3,022,443 | ) | -116.79 | % |
The net loss experienced for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was primarily the
result of an increase in the Companys provision for loan losses as well as compression of our net
interest margin. The increase in the provision for loan losses was due to the increasing risk
inherent in our loan portfolio during the current economic climate, primarily within the real
estate construction and development segment of the portfolio, as well as increased charge-offs
during the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The provision for loan losses increased
approximately $4,727,000 for the first nine months of 2009 when compared to the comparable period
in 2008. The numerous rate cuts enacted by the Federal Reserves Federal Open Market
Committee (FOMC) beginning in the third quarter of 2007 and continuing through December 2008
continue to negatively impact our net interest margin. Although both interest income and interest
expense declined significantly, approximately $2,680,000 and $2,686,000, respectively, during the
first nine months of 2009, net interest income increased by only $5,000 during the same period. The
total average balance of both the Companys interest earning assets and interest bearing
liabilities increased during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009; however, the reduction
in rates earned and paid on these assets and liabilities, the speed of the rate reductions and the
makeup of total interest sensitive assets and liabilities among higher and lower yielding
components affects our net interest margin as well as net interest income. A more detailed
discussion of interest income and expense rate and volume variances is presented under Net
Interest Income and Net Interest Margin below. The increase in noninterest expense was primarily
attributable to the increase in ORE expense and FDIC assessment expense. The increase in
noninterest income was largely the result of increases in gain on investment securities and service
charges on deposit accounts. Noninterest income and noninterest expense are discussed in more
detail under the headings Noninterest Income and Noninterest Expense below.
24
Table of Contents
The increase in net income for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to
the three-month period ended September 30, 2008 was primarily the result of the increase in gain on
investment securities and service charges on deposit accounts. These increases in noninterest
income were partially offset by increases in noninterest expense, primarily ORE expense and FDIC
assessment expense. Provision for loan loss expense during the third quarter of 2009 was
approximately $622,000, an increase of approximately $72,000 over provision expense of
approximately $550,000 for the third quarter of 2008. Decreases in both interest income and
interest expense for the third quarter of 2009 compared to the third quarter of 2008 were
comparable and therefore had a limited impact, a net increase of approximately $65,000, on net
income during the periods compared.
Basic and diluted earnings per share increased from $0.33 and $0.33, respectively, in the
third quarter of 2008 to basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.39 and $0.39, respectively, in
the third quarter of 2009. Basic and diluted earnings per share decreased from $0.98 and $0.98,
respectively, for the first nine months of 2008 to basic and diluted loss per share of ($0.17) and
($0.17), respectively, for the first nine months of 2009. The net loss per share for the nine
months ended September 30, 2009, as compared to net earnings per share for the same period in 2008,
was due primarily to the decrease in net income caused by increased levels of provision expense.
The increase in earnings per share for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, compared to
the same period in 2008, was due primarily to the increase in net income during the period.
The increase in total assets, total liabilities and shareholders equity for the nine months
ended September 30, 2009, was as follows:
9/30/09 | 12/31/08 | $ change | % change | |||||||||||||
Total Assets |
$ | 650,966,720 | $ | 621,373,199 | $ | 29,593,521 | 4.76 | % | ||||||||
Total Liabilities |
598,294,810 | 570,379,446 | 27,915,364 | 4.89 | % | |||||||||||
Shareholders Equity |
52,671,910 | 50,993,753 | 1,678,157 | 3.29 | % |
The net increase in total liabilities was primarily attributable to an increase in time
deposits of approximately $56 million, an increase in Federal Reserve/Federal Home Loan Bank
advances of approximately $10 million, offset in part by a decrease in NOW accounts of
approximately $24 million and a decrease in federal funds purchased of approximately $23 million.
The increase in time deposits includes an increase in brokered deposits of approximately $12
million. As deposit growth outpaced loan growth for the first nine months of 2009, these deposits
were used to fund an increase in investments of approximately $30 million.
The increase in shareholders equity was primarily attributable to an increase in accumulated
other comprehensive gain (loss) of $1,969,483 at September 30, 2009. Accumulated other
comprehensive gain (loss) increased from a net unrealized loss of ($147,587) for the year ended
December 31, 2008 to a net unrealized gain of $1,821,896 during the nine-month period ended
September 30, 2009. Accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) represents the unrealized gain or
loss on available for sale securities consisting of U. S. Agency securities, mortgage-backed
securities and bonds issued by municipalities, net of income taxes.

Critical Accounting Policies
Our accounting and reporting policies are in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America and conform to general practices accepted within the
banking industry. Our significant accounting policies are described below and in the notes to the
audited consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain
accounting policies require management to make significant estimates and assumptions that have a
material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities, and we consider these to
be critical accounting policies. The estimates and assumptions used are based on historical
experience and other factors that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Actual results could differ significantly
from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material impact on the carrying value of
assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and results of operations for the reporting
periods.
We believe the following are the critical accounting policies that require the most
significant estimates and assumptions and that are particularly susceptible to a significant change
in the preparation of our financial statements.
Valuation of Investment Securities
Management conducts regular reviews to assess whether the values of our investments are
impaired and if any impairment is other than temporary. If management determines that the value of
any investment is other than temporarily impaired, we record a charge against earnings equal to the
amount of the impairment. The determination of whether other than temporary impairment has
occurred involves significant assumptions, estimates and judgments by management. Changing
economic conditions global, regional or related to industries of specific issuers could
adversely affect these values.
Allowance and Provision for Loan Losses
The allowance and provision for loan losses are based on managements assessments of amounts
that it deems to be adequate to absorb losses inherent in our existing loan portfolio. The
allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for losses based on managements
evaluation of current economic conditions, volume and composition of the loan portfolio, the fair
market value or the estimated net realizable value of underlying collateral, historical charge-off
experience, the results of regulatory examinations, the level of nonperforming and past due loans,
and other indicators derived from reviewing the loan portfolio. The evaluation includes a review
of all loans on which full collection may not be reasonably assumed. Should the factors that are
considered in determining the allowance for loan losses change over time, or should managements
estimates prove incorrect, a different amount may be reported for the allowance and the associated
provision for loan losses. For example, if economic conditions in our market area undergo an
unexpected and adverse change, we may need to increase our allowance for loan losses by taking a
charge against earnings in the form of an additional provision for loan losses.
Valuation of Other Real Estate
The fair value of ORE is generally based on current appraisals, comparable sales, and other
estimates of value obtained principally from independent sources, adjusted for estimated selling
costs. At the time of foreclosure, any excess of the loan balance over the fair value of the real
estate held as collateral is treated as a charge against the allowance for loan losses. Gains or
losses on sale and any subsequent adjustments to the value are recorded as a gain or loss on other
real estate.

Loans
At September 30, 2009, loans comprised 71.56% of the Banks earning assets. The decrease in
our loan portfolio was primarily attributable to the decrease in construction and land development
loans, due to foreclosures moved to ORE. Total earning assets, as a percentage of total assets,
were 88.69% at September 30, 2009, compared to 88.86% at December 31, 2008, and 88.47% at September
30, 2008. Total earning assets relative to total assets remained relatively unchanged during the
periods presented due to offsetting increases and decreases in securities, loans, the allowance for
loan losses and ORE. The average yield on loans, including loan fees, during the first nine months
of 2009 was 6.27% compared to 7.54% for the first nine months of 2008, reflecting the declining
interest rate environment that began during the third quarter of 2007 and continued throughout 2008
as well as an increase in non-performing loans.
Loans decreased approximately $7,274,000 during the first nine months of 2009 as a result of
strategic planning as well as transfers to ORE. Management began to pursue a strategy to slow loan
growth beginning in the second quarter of 2008 that continued through the third quarter of 2009 due
to economic related stress, particularly in the construction and land development portfolio. We
plan to continue this strategy into the fourth quarter of 2009 while placing a primary emphasis on
servicing current customers needs.
The Banks ORE increased approximately $6,537,000 from approximately $9,444,000 at December
31, 2008 to approximately $15,981,000 at September 30, 2009. One property, an operating nightly
condo rental operation located in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, which previously secured a loan for
approximately $5,116,000, represents approximately $4,915,000, or 31%, of the ORE balance at
September 30, 2009 (included in multifamily residential properties in the table below). The condos
are currently under management contract with an experienced nightly rental management company as we
seek to market the sale of the properties.

As a result of a regulatory examination during the 2009 first quarter, the Bank made certain
commitments to its primary federal regulator during the second quarter of 2009, including
commitments to, among other things, implement a written program to reduce the high level of credit
risk in the Bank including strengthening credit underwriting and problem loan workouts and
collections, reduce its level of criticized assets, implement a concentration risk management
program related to commercial real estate lending, improve procedures related to the maintenance of
the Banks Allowance for Loan and Lease
Losses, strengthen the Banks internal loan review program, strengthen the Banks loan workout
department, and develop a liquidity plan that improves the Banks reliance on wholesale funding
sources. The Company has already taken many of these actions and does not believe compliance with
these commitments will have a materially adverse impact on its operations; however, failure to
comply with these commitments may result in the Banks primary federal regulator imposing
additional limitations, restraints, conditions or commitments on the Bank.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses represents managements assessment and estimates of the risks
associated with extending credit and its evaluation of the quality of our loan portfolio.
Management analyzes the loan portfolio to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses
and the appropriate provision required to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level
believed to be adequate to absorb probable incurred losses. In assessing the adequacy of the
allowance, management reviews the size, quality and risk of loans in the portfolio. Management
also considers such factors as the Banks loan loss experience, the amount of past due and
nonperforming loans, specific known risks, the status, amounts and values of nonperforming loans,
underlying collateral values securing loans, cash flow analyses, current economic conditions,
results of regulatory examinations, and other factors which affect the allowance for potential
credit losses. The Bank operates primarily in Sevier County, Tennessee, with expanding operations
in Blount County, Tennessee, and is heavily dependent on the areas tourist related industry, which
is reflected in managements assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The
Banks loan review officer on a quarterly basis prepares an analysis of the credit quality of the
loan portfolio which is reviewed by the Companys Board of Directors.

Delinquent and nonaccrual loans at both September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008
consisted primarily of construction and land development loans and commercial and consumer real
estate loans. Approximately $1,875,000 of the loans past due 30 to 89 days at September 30, 2009,
or 50.2% of the
approximate $3,736,000 total, are construction and land development loans. Commercial real estate
makes up approximately $1,089,000, or 29.1%, of loans past due 30 to 89 days at September 30, 2009.
Consumer real estate makes up approximately $1,600,000, or 74.1%, of loans past due 90 days or more
and still accruing at September 30, 2009. Approximately $16,369,000 of the nonaccrual loans, or
75.8% of the approximate $21,600,000 total at September 30, 2009, are construction and land
development loans while commercial real estate and consumer real estate make up approximately
$2,260,000 and $2,873,000, or 10.5% and 13.3%, respectively, of nonaccrual loans at that date.
The tourism industry in Sevier County has remained relatively strong during the first three
quarters of 2009 as compared to 2008 and management expects this trend to continue during the
remainder of 2009. Occupancy rates for nightly rental units have shown improvement during the first
nine months of 2009 as compared to 2008. The increased visitation rate of tourists has led to
increased sales for other tourism related industries.
Notwithstanding the general favorable trends in tourism, residential and commercial real
estate sales continued to be weak during the first three quarters of 2009, following the same
pattern that existed during the second half of 2008. The reduced sales have negatively impacted
past due, nonaccrual and charged-off loans. Price declines during 2009 have had an adverse impact
on overall real estate values. These trends have had the greatest effect on the construction and
development portfolio resulting in the significant increase in past due and nonaccrual loans
beginning during the fourth quarter of 2008 and continuing through the second quarter of 2009.
Nonaccrual loans continued to increase during the third quarter of 2009, however, due to the
seasonally improved cash flows of many of our customers, delinquency only increased slightly during
the third quarter of 2009. Developers that do not have adequate cash flow or cash reserves to
sustain the required interest payments on their loans during this period of economic stress have
been unable to continue their developments. As a result, the Bank has classified a significant
portion of these loans as non-performing assets and has begun workout arrangements for these loans.

Table of Contents
Individually impaired loans are loans that the Bank does not expect to collect all amounts due
according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. In some cases, collection of amounts due
becomes dependent on liquidating the collateral securing the impaired loan. Collateral dependent
loans do not necessarily result in the loss of principal or interest amounts due; rather the cash
flow is disrupted until the underlying collateral can be liquidated. As a result, the Banks
impaired loans may exceed nonaccrual loans which are placed on nonaccrual status when questions
arise about the future collectability of interest due on these loans. The status of impaired loans
is subject to change based on the borrowers financial position.
Problem loans are identified and monitored by the Banks watch list report which is generated
during the loan review process. This process includes review and analysis of the borrowers
financial statements and cash flows, delinquency reports and collateral valuations. The watch list
includes all loans determined to be impaired and management determines the proper course of action
relating to these loans and receives monthly updates as to the status of the loans.

The increase in impaired loans in the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was primarily
related to the weakened residential and commercial real estate market in the Banks market areas.
Within this segment of the portfolio, the Bank makes loans to, among other borrowers, home builders
and developers of land. These borrowers have continued to experience stress during the current
recession due to a combination of declining demand for residential real estate and the resulting
price and collateral value declines. In addition, housing starts in the Banks market areas
continue to slow. An extended recessionary period will likely cause the Banks real estate mortgage
loans, which include construction and land development loans, to continue to underperform and may
result in increased levels of impaired loans and non-performing assets, which may negatively impact
the Companys results of operations.

Table of Contents
Troubled debt restructures (TDRs) at September 30, 2009 totaled approximately $31,608,000
which is 54.1% of total impaired loans. The TDRs related primarily to construction and development
loans totaling approximately $11,030,000, or 18.9% of impaired loans, 1-4 family residential loans
totaling approximately $10,850,000, or 18.6% of impaired loans, and commercial real estate loans
totaling approximately $8,687,000, or 14.9% of impaired loans. The TDRs are due to lack of real
estate sales and weak or insufficient cash flows of the guarantors of the loans due to the current
economic climate. The majority of the TDRs are for a limited term, in most instances, of one to two
years, and include an interest rate reduction during this term.
The Banks allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans at September 30, 2009 and
December 31, 2008 was as follows:
Allowance for | Total | % of total | ||||||||||
loan losses | loans | loans | ||||||||||

December 31, 2008 |
5,292 | 420,429 | 1.26 | % |
Management considers the current level of its allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2009
to be adequate to absorb probable incurred losses. Net charge-offs of loans began increasing during
the third quarter of 2008 and continued to increase into the first nine months of 2009, as
anticipated, and discussed in more detail under Provision for Loan Losses below. While net
charge-offs continued to increase during the third quarter of 2009, the number and volume of losses
declined when compared to what was experienced during the first and second quarter of 2009.
Management believes the loans, including those loans that were delinquent at September 30, 2009,
that will result in additional charge-offs have been identified and adequate provision has been
made in the allowance for loan loss balance. No assurance can
be given, however, that adverse economic circumstances or other events or changes in borrowers
financial conditions, particularly borrowers in the real estate construction and development
business, will not result in increased losses in the Banks loan portfolio or in the need for
increases in the allowance for loan losses through additional provision expense in future periods.
Investment Securities
Our investment portfolio consists of securities of U.S. government agencies, mortgage-backed
securities and municipal securities. The investment securities portfolio is the second largest
component of our earning assets and represented 24.11% of total assets at quarter-end, up from
20.39% at December 31, 2008. This increase is primarily attributable to increased pledging
requirements due to increased deposits of public funds and an increase in pledge levels required by
the State of Tennessee Bond Collateral Pool Program. The increase also reflects the fact that
deposit growth for the first nine months of 2009 outpaced loan growth over the same period. As an
integral component of our asset/liability management strategy, we manage our investment securities
portfolio to maintain liquidity, balance interest rate risk and augment interest income. We also
use our investment securities portfolio to meet pledging requirements for deposits and borrowings.
The average yield on our investment securities portfolio during the first nine months of 2009 was
4.14% versus 4.86% for the first nine months of 2008. Net unrealized gains on securities available
for sale, included in accumulated other comprehensive income, increased by $1,969,483, net of
income taxes, during the first nine months of 2009 from a net loss balance of ($147,587) at
December 31, 2008, to a net gain balance of $1,821,896 at September 30, 2009.
In an effort to manage liquidity and pledging requirements for fluctuating public funds
deposits, we replaced a portion of our mortgage-backed securities with shorter term U.S. government
agency securities. As a result, U.S. government agency securities increased as a percentage of the
total securities portfolio while the proportion of mortgage backed securities decreased at
September 30, 2009. This change caused a decrease in the yield on investment securities. However,
as the agency securities mature, we expect the yield on our investment securities portfolio to
recover.

Demand for our NOW accounts, predominantly from public funds sources, remains strong. The
decrease in these deposits during the first nine months of 2009 was primarily the result of the
withdrawal of a large portion of one public entitys deposits after a scheduled renewal bid as well
as the result of seasonal cash outflows in public funds deposits. Certain municipal entities
deposits tend to fluctuate based on tax collections and typically reach their highest point during
the first quarter before decreasing to more ordinary levels. Obtaining public funds is generally
through a bidding process under varying terms. Management does not believe the Bank would be
adversely affected if any of the remaining public
funds deposits were to be withdrawn. The Bank should have sufficient liquidity and sources of
funds available to offset the withdrawal of public funds as needed, including through loan
repayments, brokered deposits and the available for sale investment securities portfolio.
The increase in certificates of deposit was the result of an increase in customer deposits,
deposits received from a correspondent bank and acceptance of deposits through a national listing
service. Brokered deposits are a significant resource available to the Bank to fund loan demand and
supplement other sources of liquidity due to the relative ease at which these deposits can be
acquired and replaced upon maturity and their comparability to local market rates. At September 30,
2009, brokered deposits represented approximately 15.08% of total deposits. During the first nine
months of 2009, brokered deposits increased approximately $12,395,000 and management intends to
utilize these funds, secured at favorable rates, to replace higher cost sources of funds as they
mature.
The increase in savings deposits is the result of the continued success of our competitive
rate savings product.
The total average cost of interest-bearing deposits (including demand, savings and certificate
of deposit accounts) for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 was 2.24%, down from 3.59%
for the same period a year ago reflecting the FOMCs rate cuts. Competitive pressures in our
markets, however, have limited, and are likely to continue to limit, our ability to realize the
full effect of these rate cuts.

Funding Resources, Capital Adequacy and Liquidity
Our funding sources primarily include deposits and repurchase accounts. The Bank, being
situated in a market area that relies on tourism as its principal industry, can be subject to
periods of reduced deposit funding because tourism in Sevier County and Blount County is seasonably
slower in the winter months. The Bank manages seasonal deposit outflows through its secured Federal
Funds lines of credit at several correspondent banks. Those lines totaled $23,000,000 as of
September 30, 2009, and are available on one days notice. The Bank also has a cash management line
of credit in the amount of $100 million from the FHLB that the Bank uses to meet short-term
liquidity demands. The Bank had approximately $37 million of additional borrowing capacity from the
FHLB at September 30, 2009. Additionally, the Bank has a line of credit from the Federal Reserve
Discount Window that totaled approximately $22 million at September 30, 2009. The Bank had
approximately $2 million of additional borrowing capacity from the Federal Reserve Discount Window
at September 30, 2009. However, the borrowing capacity can be increased based on the amount of
collateral pledged.
Capital adequacy is important to the Banks continued financial safety and soundness and
growth. Our banking regulators have adopted risk-based capital and leverage guidelines to measure
the capital adequacy of national banks. In addition, the Companys and the Banks regulators may
impose additional capital requirements on financial institutions and their bank subsidiaries, like
the Company and the Bank, beyond those provided for statutorily, which standards may be in addition
to, and require higher levels of capital, than the general capital adequacy guidelines.
The table below sets forth the Companys capital ratios as of the periods indicated.

Based on currently applicable statutory guidelines regarding capital levels, management
believes the Bank was well capitalized at September 30, 2009.
Liquidity is the ability of a company to convert assets into cash or cash equivalents without
significant loss. Our liquidity management involves maintaining our ability to meet the day-to-day
cash flow requirements of our customers, whether they are depositors wishing to withdraw funds or
borrowers requiring funds to meet their credit needs. Without proper liquidity management, we would
not be able to perform the primary function of a financial intermediary and would, therefore, not
be able to meet the production and growth needs of the communities we serve.
The primary function of asset and liability management is not only to assure adequate
liquidity in order for us to meet the needs of our customer base, but also to maintain an
appropriate balance between interest-sensitive assets and interest-sensitive liabilities so that we
can also meet the investment objectives of our shareholders. Daily monitoring of the sources and
uses of funds is necessary to maintain an acceptable cash position that meets both the needs of our
customers and the objectives of our shareholders. In a banking environment, both assets and
liabilities are considered sources of liquidity funding and both are therefore monitored on a daily
basis.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Our only material off-balance sheet arrangements consist of commitments to extend credit and
standby letters of credit issued in the ordinary course of business to facilitate customers
funding needs or risk management objectives.
Commitments and Lines of Credit
In the ordinary course of business, the Bank has granted commitments to extend credit and
standby letters of credit to approved customers. Generally, these commitments to extend credit
have been granted on a temporary basis for seasonal or inventory requirements and have been
approved by the loan committee. These commitments are recorded in the financial statements as they
are funded. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may
require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitment amounts expire without being drawn upon,
the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Table of Contents
The following tables set forth the extent to which changes in interest rates and changes in
volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities have affected our interest
income and interest expense during the periods indicated. For each category of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to (1)
change in volume (change in volume multiplied by previous year rate); (2) change in rate (change in
rate multiplied by current year volume); and (3) a combination of change in rate and change in
volume. The changes in interest income and interest expense attributable to both volume and rate
have been allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Interest Income
The interest income and fees earned on loans are the largest contributing element of interest
income. The decrease in this component of interest income for the nine months ended September 30,
2009 as compared to the same period in 2008 was the result of a decrease in the average rate earned
on loans which was partially offset by an increase in the volume of average loans. Average loans
outstanding increased approximately $2,213,000, or 0.53%, from September 30, 2008 to September 30,
2009. As shown in the analysis of changes in net interest income table above, the increase in
volume was more than offset by the 127 basis point decrease in the average rate earned on loans
during the first nine months of 2009 as compared to the first nine months of 2008. Interest income
on securities increased during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the
same period in 2008 due to an increase in the average balance of securities of approximately
$57,172,000, or 56.95%, from September 30, 2008 to September 30, 2009. The volume related increase
in interest income was partially offset by the 72 basis point decrease in the yield on those
securities, which typically earn lower yields than loans. Additionally, interest income on federal
funds sold/other decreased due to the significant reduction in the yield earned on those balances.
The average balance of federal funds sold/other increased approximately $10,374,000, or 421.71%,
from September 30, 2008 to September 30, 2009; however, the yield decreased 237 basis points during
the same period.
Interest income decreased for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to
the three-month period ended September 30, 2008 as a result of the same factors mentioned in the
above paragraph with the exception of the increase in average loans outstanding. For the
three-month periods compared, average loans outstanding decreased approximately $9,840,000, or
2.34%, further contributing to the decrease in interest income.
39
Table of Contents
Interest Expense
The decrease in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to
the same period in 2008 was primarily attributable to the reduction in the average cost of the
majority of our interest-bearing liabilities, predominantly the cost of interest bearing demand and
time deposits. The average balance of total interest bearing deposits, the largest component of
interest-bearing liabilities, increased approximately $103,330,000, or 27.84%, for the first nine
months of 2009 compared to the first nine months of 2008. However, the average rate paid on total
interest bearing deposits decreased 135 basis points between the two periods offsetting the
increase in volume and creating a net decrease in deposit interest expense. Interest expense on
FHLB advances and other borrowings decreased during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009
compared to the same period in 2008 due to a decrease in the average borrowed funds balance of
approximately $11,135,000, or 13.81%, during the periods compared. Additionally, the average rate
paid on these liabilities decreased 15 basis points, contributing to the reduction in interest
expense. The average balance of subordinated debentures did not change from September 30, 2008 to
September 30, 2009. Therefore, the 230 basis point decrease in the rate paid on this debt for the
nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 resulted in an
overall decrease in the related interest expense.
Interest bearing deposits consist of interest bearing demand deposits, savings and time
deposits. As stated above, the cost of our interest bearing deposits decreased for the first nine
months of 2009 compared to the first nine months of 2008. The largest factor contributing to the
overall reduction in expense was a reduction in the rate charged on interest bearing demand and
time deposits. The rates paid on interest bearing demand deposit accounts typically correspond to
changes in the federal funds rate and consequently have been consistently lower throughout 2009
when compared to 2008. This reduction in rates resulted in decreased expense despite an increase in
volume. The decline in the cost of time deposits resulted in a decrease in interest expense related
to these deposits even with a sizable increase in the average balance of time deposits.
Interest expense decreased for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to
the three-month period ended September 30, 2008 as a result of the same factors mentioned in the
above paragraph with the exception of the increase in average interest bearing demand deposits
outstanding. For the three-month periods compared, average interest bearing demand deposits
outstanding decreased approximately $4,810,000, or 3.20%, contributing to the decrease in interest
expense.
Net Interest Income
The increase in net interest income before the provision for loan losses for the three- and
nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 when compared to the same periods in 2008 was primarily
the result of the increase in interest income on securities. Net interest income for the two
periods was also influenced by increases in volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities as well as decreases in rates earned and paid on these interest-sensitive balances.
Overall, with the exception of securities, the effects of the rate reductions were more than enough
to overcome the volume related increases in interest income and expense.
40
Table of Contents
Net Interest Margin
Our net interest margin, the difference between the yield on earning assets, including loan
fees, and the rate paid on funds to support those assets, decreased 0.22% and 0.43%, respectively,
for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 compared to the third quarter and first nine
months of 2008. The decrease in our net interest margin reflects a decrease in the average spread
during the first nine months of 2009 between the rates we earned on our interest-earning assets,
which had a decrease in overall yield of 144 basis points to 5.56% at September 30, 2009, as
compared to 7.00% at September 30, 2008, and the rates we paid on interest-bearing liabilities,
which had a slightly less substantial decrease of 124 basis points in the overall rate to 2.45% at
September 30, 2009, versus 3.69% at September 30, 2008. During the third quarter of 2009, our
interest-earning assets had a decrease in overall yield of 116 basis points to 5.41% at September
30, 2009, as compared to 6.57% at September 30, 2008, and our interest-bearing liabilities had a
slightly less substantial decrease of 112 basis points in the overall rate to 2.29% at September
30, 2009, versus 3.41% at September 30, 2008. Our net interest margin was also negatively impacted
by an increase in the average balance of nonaccrual loans. For the nine-month period ended
September 30, 2009, when compared to the same period in 2008, average nonaccrual loans increased
approximately $17,191,000, or 988.0%, from approximately $1,740,000 at September 30, 2008 to
$18,931,000 at September 30, 2009. For the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, when
compared to the same period in 2008, average nonaccrual loans increased approximately $14,286,000,
or 392.0%, from approximately $3,644,000 at September 30, 2008 to $17,930,000 at September 30,
2009. Additionally, our net interest margin was negatively impacted by the approximately $3,968,000
decrease in the average balance of noninterest-bearing demand deposits when comparing the first
nine months of 2009 to the same period in 2008. The average balance of noninterest-bearing demand
deposits decreased approximately $1,944,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009
compared to the same period in 2008. The negative effect of these changes will continue as long as
and to the extent that the average balance of nonaccrual loans remains elevated and the average
balance of noninterest-bearing demand deposits is reduced.
Provision For Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses is based on managements evaluation of economic conditions,
volume and composition of the loan portfolio, historical charge-off experience, the level of
non-performing and past due loans, and other indicators derived from reviewing the loan portfolio.
Management performs such reviews monthly and makes appropriate adjustments to the level of the
allowance for loan losses.

As mentioned above in the section titled Allowance for Loan Losses, management has determined
it is necessary to increase the allowance account through the provision for loan losses. The
increase in the provision for loan losses was due to the increased charge-offs and delinquencies
noted above, related primarily to deterioration in the real estate segment of the Companys loan
portfolio, particularly construction and land development, as described in more detail above.
Management has continued its thorough review of the loan portfolio with particular emphasis on
construction and land development loans and we believe we have identified and adequately provided
for losses present in the loan portfolio; however, due to the necessarily approximate and imprecise
nature of the allowance for loan loss estimate, certain projected scenarios may not occur as
anticipated. Additionally, further deterioration of factors relating to this portion of the loan
portfolio could have an added adverse impact and require additional provision expense.
As noted in the table above, approximately $1,156,000, or 45.6%, of net charge-offs through
September 30, 2009, has been construction and land development loans. As noted above in the section
titled Allowance for Loan Losses, construction and land development loans have had the most severe
impact due to the current economic climate. The charge-off amount for these loans has been due
primarily to price declines in the underlying collateral value of the real estate securing these
loans. The general price decline of property in this category is expected to continue throughout
the remainder of 2009 in managements opinion.
Net charge-offs of the other loan categories combined at September 30, 2009 totaled
approximately $1,377,000 or 54.4% of net charge-offs.

Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income represents the total of all sources of income, other than interest-related
income, which are derived from various service charges, fees and commissions charged for bank
services.
The increase in other non-interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009,
was primarily attributable to an increase in investment gains and an increase in service charges on
deposit accounts resulting from an authorized overdraft program implemented during January 2009.
The increase in non-interest income was negatively impacted by an increase in net loss on ORE as
well as a decline in gains earned on the sale of mortgage loans for each period compared.
In the first quarter of 2009, the Company experienced losses of $347,368 related to impairment
of common stock held by the Bank and issued by Silverton Financial Services, Inc. (Silverton) and
trust preferred securities held by the Bank and issued by a trust affiliated with Silverton which
are guaranteed by Silverton. On May 1, 2009, Silvertons bank subsidiary, Silverton Bank, was
placed into receivership by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency after Silverton Banks
capital deteriorated significantly
in the first quarter of 2009. On June 5, 2009, Silverton filed a petition for bankruptcy. The
Company does not anticipate that it will recover any of the Banks investment in either the common
securities or trust preferred securities issued by Silverton or its affiliated trust. As a result,
the Company recorded an impairment charge of $347,368 during the first quarter of 2009, which
represents the Companys full investment in the securities.
The following table presents the main components that make up the increase in non-interest
income:

Non-Interest Expense
The Companys net income during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, as
compared to the same periods in 2008, was negatively impacted by the increase in non-interest
expense. Total non-interest expense represents the total costs of operating overhead, such as
salaries, employee benefits, building and equipment costs, telephone costs and marketing costs. The
increase in non-interest expense from the third quarter and first nine months of 2008 to the third
quarter and first nine months of 2009 relates primarily to an increase in the Banks FDIC insurance
assessment for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009. During the second quarter
of 2009, we recorded an expense totaling $300,000 for a special one-time assessment from the FDIC
to provide additional reserves for the Bank Insurance Fund. We believe that our expenses related to
FDIC insurance will continue to increase during 2009 when compared to the prior years comparable
periods as the FDIC seeks to replenish its reserve funds and as a result of our participation in
the Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program which provides 100% insurance coverage of deposits in
noninterest-bearing deposit accounts. In September 2009, the FDIC proposed a rule that, in lieu of
any further special assessment in 2009, will require all insured depository institutions, with
limited exceptions, to prepay their estimated quarterly risk-based assessments for the fourth
quarter of 2009, and for all of 2010, 2011, and 2012. The FDIC also proposed to adopt a uniform
three basis point increase in assessment rates effective January 1, 2011. If the rule is finalized
as proposed, the Company expects to be required to prepay approximately $3 million to $4 million in
risk based assessments.

Additionally, the increase in non-interest expense was attributable to increased ORE
maintenance and upkeep expense. As discussed under Loans above, the balance of ORE increased
significantly during the first nine months of 2009 and these expenses reflect that increase. The
Banks continued expansion also contributed to the increase in non-interest expense for the three
and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009. Since the end of the third quarter of 2007, the
Bank has opened five new branches, two in Sevier County and three in Blount County including the
Blount County regional headquarters. There were also general increases in the following areas for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 when compared to 2008: electronic banking costs,
ATM and debit/credit card expense and professional fees.
The following table presents the main components that make up the increase in non-interest
expense:

2009 and 2008 is presented in the following table:

Effective tax rate |
74.16 | % | 21.09 | % | 20.97 | % | 20.70 | % |
The increase in the effective rate for the first nine months of 2009 was primarily due to the
Banks net operating loss. Tax exempt income has the effect of increasing a taxable loss, therefore
increasing effective tax rates as a percentage of pretax income. This is the opposite effect on tax
rates when a company has pretax income. For each quarterly and nine month period presented above,
the effective tax rate was positively impacted by the continuing tax benefits generated from MNB
Real Estate, Inc., which is a real estate investment trust subsidiary formed during the second
quarter of 2005. The income generated from tax-exempt municipal bonds and bank owned life insurance
also continues to improve our effective tax rate. Additionally, during 2006, the Bank became a
partner in Appalachian Fund for Growth II, LLC with three other Tennessee banking institutions.
This partnership has invested in a program that is expected to generate a federal tax credit in the
amount of approximately $200,000 during 2009. The program is also expected to generate a one-time
state tax credit in the amount of $200,000 to be utilized over a maximum of 20 years to offset
state tax liabilities.

Senior Vice President Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period
covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to timely alert them
to material information relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries required to be
included in our Exchange Act reports.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the third quarter of 2009, there were no changes in our internal control over financial
reporting that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our
internal control over financial reporting.
PART II OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed
in Item 1A. Risk Factors in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2008.
Recent negative developments in the U.S. and local economy and in local real estate markets have
adversely impacted our operations and results and may continue to adversely impact our results in
the future.
Economic conditions in the markets in which we operate have deteriorated significantly since
early 2008. As a result, we have experienced a significant reduction in our earnings, resulting
primarily from provisions for loan losses related to declining collateral values in our
construction and development loan portfolio. We believe that this difficult economic environment
will continue at least throughout the remainder of 2009 and into 2010, and we expect that our
results of operations will continue to be negatively impacted as a result. There can be no
assurance that the economic conditions that have adversely affected the financial services
industry, and the capital, credit and real estate markets generally or us in particular, will
improve in the near future, or thereafter, in which case we could continue to experience
significant losses and write-downs of assets, and could face capital and liquidity constraints or
other business challenges.
We have a concentration of credit exposure to borrowers dependent on the tourism industry.
Due to the predominance of the tourism industry in Sevier County, Tennessee, which is adjacent
to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the home of the Dollywood theme park, a significant
portion of the Banks commercial loan portfolio is concentrated within that industry. The
predominance of the tourism industry also makes our business more seasonal in nature than may be
the case with banks in other market areas. The Bank maintains ten primary concentrations of credit
by industry, of which five are directly related to the tourism industry. At September 30, 2009,
approximately $195 million in loans, representing approximately 47.2% of our total loans, were to
businesses and individuals whose ability to repay depends to a significant extent on the tourism
industry in the markets we serve. We also have additional loans that would be considered related to
the tourism industry in addition to the five categories included in the industry concentration
amounts noted above. The tourism industry in Sevier County has remained strong during recent years
and we anticipate that this trend will continue; however, if the tourism industry experiences an
economic slowdown and, as a result, the borrowers in this industry are unable to perform their
obligations under their existing loan agreements, our earnings could be negatively impacted,
causing the value of our common stock to decline.
45
Table of Contents
A portion of our loan portfolio is secured by homes that are being built for sale as vacation homes
or as second homes for out of market investors or homes that are used to generate rental income.
Our borrowers rely to some extent upon rental income to service real estate loans secured by
rental properties, or they rely upon sales of the property for construction and development loans
secured by homes that have been built for sale to investors living outside of our market area as
investment properties, second homes or as vacation homes. If tourism levels in our market area were
to decline significantly, the rental income that some of our borrowers utilize to service their
obligations to us may decline as well and these borrowers may have difficulty meeting their
obligations to us which could adversely impact our results of operations. In addition, sales of
vacation homes and second homes to investors living outside of our market area have slowed and are
expected to remain at reduced levels throughout the remainder 2009 and at least during the first
half of 2010. Borrowers that are developers or builders whose loans are secured by these vacation
and second homes and whose ability to repay their obligations to us is dependent on the sale of
these properties may have difficulty meeting their obligations to us if these properties are not
sold timely or at values in excess of their loan amount which could adversely impact our results of
operations.
Our business is subject to local real estate market and other local economic conditions.
Adverse market or economic conditions in the State of Tennessee may disproportionately
increase the risk our borrowers will be unable to timely make their loan payments. In addition, the
market value of the real estate securing loans as collateral could be adversely affected by
unfavorable changes in market and economic conditions. As of September 30, 2009, approximately 90%
of our loans were secured by real estate. Of this amount, approximately 34% were commercial real
estate loans, 36% were residential real estate loans and 30% were construction and development
loans. Any sustained period of increased payment delinquencies, foreclosures or losses caused by
adverse market or economic conditions in the markets we serve or in the State of Tennessee, like
those we are currently experiencing, could adversely affect the value of our assets, our revenues,
results of operations and financial condition. In addition, construction and development lending is
generally considered to have more complex credit risks than traditional single-family residential
lending because the principal is concentrated in a limited number of loans with repayment dependent
on the successful operation of the related real estate project. Consequently, these loans are more
sensitive to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the general economy. Throughout 2009,
the number of newly constructed homes or lots sold in our market areas has continued to decline,
negatively affecting collateral values and contributing to increase provision expense and higher
levels of non-performing assets. A continued reduction in residential real estate market prices
and demand could result in further price reductions in home and land values adversely affecting the
value of collateral securing the construction and development loans that we hold. These adverse
economic and real estate market conditions may lead to further increases in non-performing loans
and other real estate owned, increased charge offs from the disposition of non-performing assets,
and increases in provision for loan losses, all of which would negatively impact our financial
condition and results of operations.

Table of Contents
We are geographically concentrated in Sevier County and Blount County, Tennessee, and changes in
local economic conditions impact our profitability.
We operate primarily in Sevier County and Blount County, Tennessee, and substantially all of
our loan customers and most of our deposit and other customers live or have operations in Sevier
and Blount Counties. Accordingly, our success significantly depends upon the growth in population,
income levels, deposits and housing starts in both counties, along with the continued attraction of
business ventures to the area. Our profitability is impacted by the changes in general economic
conditions in this market. Additionally, unfavorable local or national economic conditions could
reduce our growth rate, affect the ability of our customers to repay their loans to us and
generally affect our financial condition and results of operations.
We are less able than a larger institution to spread the risks of unfavorable local economic
conditions across a large number of diversified economies. Moreover, we cannot give any assurance
that we will benefit from any market growth or favorable economic conditions in our primary market
areas if they do occur.
We could sustain losses if our asset quality declines.
Our earnings are significantly affected by our ability to properly originate, underwrite and
service loans. A significant portion of our loans are real estate based or made to real estate
based borrowers, and the credit quality of such loans has deteriorated and could deteriorate
further if real estate market conditions continue to decline or fail to stabilize nationally or,
more importantly, in our market areas. We have sustained losses, and could continue to sustain
losses if we incorrectly assess the creditworthiness of our borrowers or fail to detect or respond
to further deterioration in asset quality in a timely manner. Problems with asset quality could
cause our interest income and net interest margin to decrease and our provisions for loan losses to
increase, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
If our allowance for loan losses is not sufficient to cover actual loan losses, our earnings will
decrease.
If loan customers with significant loan balances fail to repay their loans according to the
terms of these loans, our earnings would suffer. We make various assumptions and judgments about
the collectability of our loan portfolio, including the creditworthiness of our borrowers and the
value of any collateral securing the repayment of our loans. We maintain an allowance for loan
losses in an attempt to cover the inherent risks associated with lending. In determining the size
of this allowance, we rely on an analysis of our loan portfolio based on volume and types of loans,
internal loan classifications, trends in classifications, volume and trends in delinquencies,
nonaccruals and charge-offs, national and local economic conditions, other factors and other
pertinent information. If our assumptions are inaccurate, our current allowance may not be
sufficient to cover potential loan losses, and additional provisions may be necessary which would
decrease our earnings.
In addition, federal and state regulators periodically review our loan portfolio and may
require us to increase our provision for loan losses or recognize loan charge-offs. Their
conclusions about the quality of our loan portfolio may be different than ours. Any increase in our
allowance for loan losses or loan charge-offs as required by these regulatory agencies could have a
negative effect on our operating results. Moreover, additions to the allowance may be necessary
based on changes in economic and real estate market conditions, new information regarding existing
loans, identification of additional problem loans and other factors, both within and outside of our
managements control.

Table of Contents
Our continued growth, or further significant deterioration in our asset quality metrics, may
require the need for additional capital and further regulatory approvals which, if not obtained, could
adversely impact our profitability and implementation of our current business plan.
To continue to grow, we will need to provide sufficient capital to the Bank through earnings
generation, additional equity offerings, the issuance of additional trust preferred securities, if
the market for these types of offerings develops again, or borrowed funds or any combination of
these sources of funds. We may also require additional capital if we experience significant
deterioration in asset quality or if our, or the Banks, regulators require that we maintain
capital levels above those that are statutorily required. Should we incur indebtedness, we could
be required to obtain certain regulatory approvals beforehand if we are not well-capitalized under
regulatory standards. Should our growth exceed our expectations, we may need to raise additional
capital over our projected capital needs. However, our ability to raise additional capital, if
needed, will depend on conditions in the capital markets at that time, which are outside our
control, and on our financial performance. Accordingly, we cannot assure our ability to raise
additional capital if needed on terms acceptable to us. If we cannot raise additional capital when
needed, our ability to further expand and grow our operations, or to withstand significant credit
losses, could be materially impaired. Should we not be able to obtain such approvals or otherwise
not be able to grow our asset base, our ability to attain our long-term profitability goals will be
more difficult.
We have increased levels of other real estate, primarily as a result of foreclosures, and we
anticipate higher levels of foreclosed real estate expense.
As we have begun to resolve non-performing real estate loans, we have increased the level of
foreclosed properties primarily those acquired from builders and from residential land developers.
Foreclosed real estate expense consists of three types of charges: maintenance costs, valuation
adjustments owed on new appraisal values and gains or losses on disposition. These charges will
increase as levels of other real estate increase, and also as local real estate values decline,
negatively affecting our results of operations.
Competition with other banking institutions could adversely affect our profitability.
We face significant competition in our primary market areas from a number of sources,
currently including nine commercial banks and one savings institution in Sevier County and thirteen
commercial banks and one savings institution in Blount County. As of June 30, 2009, there were 57
commercial bank branches and three savings institutions branches located in Sevier County and 52
commercial bank branches and one savings institution branch located in Blount County. Most of our
competitors have been in existence for a longer period of time, are better established, have
substantially greater financial resources and have more extensive facilities than we do. Because of
the size and established presence of our competitors in our market area, these competitors have
longer-term customer relationships than we maintain and are able to offer a wider range of services
than we offer.
Fluctuations in interest rates could reduce our profitability.
Changes in interest rates may affect our level of interest income, the primary component of
our gross revenue, as well as the level of our interest expense, our largest recurring expenditure.
Interest rate fluctuations are caused by many factors which, for the most part, are not under our
direct control. For example, national monetary policy plays a significant role in the determination
of interest rates. Additionally, competitor pricing and the resulting negotiations that occur with
our customers also impact the rates we collect on loans and the rates we pay on deposits.
As interest rates change, we expect that we will periodically experience gaps in the
interest rate sensitivities of our assets and liabilities, meaning that either our interest-bearing
liabilities will be more sensitive to changes in market interest rates than our interest-earning
assets, or vice versa. In either event, if market interest rates should move contrary to our
position, this gap may work against us, and our
earnings may be negatively affected.
Changes in the level of interest rates also may negatively affect our ability to originate
real estate loans, the value of our assets and our ability to realize gains from the sale of our
assets, all of which ultimately affect our earnings. A decline in the market value of our assets
may limit our ability to borrow additional funds or result in our lenders requiring additional
collateral from us under our loan agreements. As a result, we could be required to sell some of our
loans and investments under adverse market conditions, upon terms that are not favorable to us, in
order to maintain our liquidity. If those sales are made at prices lower than the amortized costs
of the investments, we will incur losses.
48
Table of Contents
Liquidity needs could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
We rely on dividends from the Bank as our primary source of funds, and the Bank relies on
customer deposits and loan repayments as its primary source of funds. While scheduled loan
repayments are a relatively stable source of funds, they are subject to the ability of borrowers to
repay the loans. The ability of borrowers to repay loans can be adversely affected by a number of
factors, including changes in economic conditions, adverse trends or events affecting business
industry groups, reductions in real estate values or markets, business closings or lay-offs,
inclement weather, natural disasters, and international instability. Additionally, deposit levels
may be affected by a number of factors, including rates paid by competitors, general interest rate
levels, returns available to customers on alternative investments, and general economic conditions.
We rely to a significant degree on national time deposits and brokered deposits, which may be more
volatile and expensive than local time deposits. Accordingly, we may be required from time to time
to rely on secondary sources of liquidity to meet withdrawal demands or otherwise fund operations.
Such sources include Federal Home Loan Bank advances and federal funds lines of credit from
correspondent banks. To utilize brokered deposits and national market time deposits without
additional regulatory approvals, we must remain well capitalized. While we believe that these
sources are currently adequate, there can be no assurance they will be sufficient to meet future
liquidity demands.
Recent legislative and regulatory initiatives that were enacted in response to the recent financial
crisis are beginning to wind down.
The U.S. federal, state and foreign governments have taken various actions in an attempt to
deal with the worldwide financial crisis and the severe decline in the global economy. Some of
these programs are beginning to expire and the impact of the wind down on the financial sector and
on the economic recovery is unknown. In the United States, the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act
of 2008 or EESA, was enacted on October 3, 2008. The Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP,
established pursuant to EESA, includes the Capital Purchase Program, pursuant to which Treasury is
authorized to purchase senior preferred stock and common or preferred stock warrants from
participating financial institutions. TARP also authorized the purchase of other securities and
financial instruments for the purpose of stabilizing and providing liquidity to U.S. financial
markets. TARP is scheduled to expire December 31, 2009, although the Treasury has announced it will
likely extend it until October 31, 2010. On September 18, 2009, the Treasury guarantee on money
market mutual funds expired. On October 20, 2009, the FDIC announced that the Temporary Loan
Guaranty Program pursuant to which the FDIC guarantees unsecured debt of banks and certain holding
companies would expire October 31, 2009, except for a temporary emergency facility. The Transaction
Account Guarantee portion of the program, which guarantees noninterest bearing bank transaction
accounts on an unlimited basis, is scheduled to continue until June 30, 2010.
Noncore funding represents a large component of our funding base.
In addition to the traditional core deposits, such as demand deposit accounts, interest
checking, money market savings and certificates of deposits, we utilize several noncore funding
sources, such as
brokered certificates of deposit, Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati advances, Federal funds
purchased and other sources. We utilize these noncore funding sources to fund the ongoing
operations and growth of the Bank. The availability of these noncore funding sources are subject to
broad economic conditions and, as such, the pricing on these sources may fluctuate significantly
and/or be restricted at any point in time, thus impacting our net interest income, our immediate
liquidity and/or our access to additional liquidity.
49
Table of Contents
Brokered certificates of deposit have received scrutiny from regulators in recent months. We
impose upon ourselves limitations as to the absolute level of brokered deposits we may have on our
balance sheet at any point in time. The pricing of these deposits are subject to the broader
wholesale funding market and may fluctuate significantly in a very short period of time.
Additionally, the availability of these deposits is impacted by overall market conditions as
investors determine whether to invest in the less risky certificates of deposit or in the more
risky debt and equity markets. As money flows between these various investment instruments, market
conditions will impact the pricing and availability of brokered funds.
In recent months, the financial media has disclosed that the nations Federal Home Loan Bank
(FHLB) system may be under stress due to deterioration in the financial markets, particularly in
relation to valuation of mortgage securities. Several FHLB institutions have announced impairment
charges of these and other assets and as such their capital positions have deteriorated to the
point that they may suspend dividend payments to their members. We are a member of the
FHLB-Cincinnati which continues to pay dividends. However, should financial conditions continue to
weaken, the FHLB system (including FHLB-Cincinnati) in the future may have to, not only suspend
dividend payments, but also curtail advances to member institutions like us. Should the FHLB system
deteriorate to the point of not being able to fund future advances to banks, including the Bank,
this would place increased pressure on other wholesale funding sources, which may negatively impact
our net interest margin and results of operations.
National or state legislation or regulation may increase our expenses and reduce earnings.
Federal bank regulators are increasing regulatory scrutiny, and additional restrictions on
financial institutions have been proposed by regulators and by Congress. Changes in tax law,
federal legislation, regulation or policies, such as bankruptcy laws, deposit insurance, consumer
protection laws, and capital requirements, among others, can result in significant increases in our
expenses and/or charge-offs, which may adversely affect our earnings. Changes in state or federal
tax laws or regulations can have a similar impact. Furthermore, financial institution regulatory
agencies are expected to continue to be very aggressive in responding to concerns and trends
identified in examinations, including the continued issuance of additional formal or enforcement or
supervisory actions. In the second quarter of 2009, the Bank made certain commitments to its
primary federal regulator, including commitments to, among other things, reduce the high level of
credit risk in the Bank. If we fail to satisfactorily comply with our commitments, or become
subject to additional operational limitations, we could be required to agree to limitations or take
actions that limit our operational flexibility, restrict our growth or increase our capital or
liquidity levels. Failure to comply with any formal or informal regulatory restrictions would lead
to further regulatory enforcement actions. Negative developments in the financial services industry
and the impact of recently enacted or new legislation in response to those developments could
negatively impact our operations by restricting our business operations, including our ability to
originate or sell loans, and adversely impact our financial performance. In addition, industry,
legislative or regulatory developments may cause us to materially change our existing strategic
direction, capital strategies, compensation or operating plans.
Our ability to maintain required capital levels and adequate sources of funding and liquidity could
be impacted by changes in the capital markets and deteriorating economic and market conditions.
We, and the Bank, are required to maintain certain capital levels established by banking
regulations. In addition, our, or the Banks, regulators may require that we maintain capital
at levels above statutorily required levels. We must also maintain adequate funding sources in the
normal course of business to support our operations and fund outstanding liabilities. Our ability
to maintain capital levels, sources of funding and liquidity could be impacted by changes in the
capital markets in which we operate and deteriorating economic and market conditions. In addition,
we have from time to time supported our capital position with the issuance of trust preferred
securities. The trust preferred market has deteriorated significantly since the second half of 2007
and it is unlikely that we would be able to issue trust preferred securities in the future on terms
consistent with our previous issuances, if at all.
50
Table of Contents
Failure by the Bank to meet applicable capital guidelines, whether required by statutory
provisions or specific regulatory request, or to satisfy certain other regulatory requirements
could subject the Bank to a variety of enforcement remedies available to the federal regulatory
authorities. These include limitations on the ability to pay dividends, the issuance by the
regulatory authority of a capital directive to increase capital, and the termination of deposit
insurance by the FDIC.
Our common stock is currently traded on the over-the-counter, or OTC, bulletin board and has
substantially less liquidity than the average stock quoted on a national securities exchange.
Although our common stock is publicly traded on the OTC bulletin board, our common stock has
substantially less daily trading volume than the average trading market for companies quoted on the
Nasdaq Global Market, or any national securities exchange. A public trading market having the
desired characteristics of depth, liquidity and orderliness depends on the presence in the
marketplace of willing buyers and sellers of our common stock at any given time. This presence
depends on the individual decisions of investors and general economic and market conditions over
which we have no control.
The market price of our common stock may fluctuate in the future, and these fluctuations may
be unrelated to our performance. General market price declines or overall market volatility in the
future could adversely affect the price of our common stock, and the current market price may not
be indicative of future market prices.
Loss of our senior executive officers or other key employees could impair our relationship with our
customers and adversely affect our business.
We have assembled a senior management team which has substantial background and experience in
banking and financial services and in the Sevier County and Blount County, Tennessee banking
markets. Loss of the services of any of these key personnel could negatively impact our business
because of their skills, years of industry experience, customer relationships and the potential
difficulty of promptly replacing them.
Our business is dependent on technology, and an inability to invest in technological improvements
may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
The financial services industry is undergoing rapid technological changes with frequent
introductions of new technology-driven products and services. In addition to better serving
customers, the effective use of technology increases efficiency and enables financial institutions
to reduce costs. We have made significant investments in data processing, management information
systems and internet banking accessibility. Our future success will depend in part upon our ability
to create additional efficiencies in our operations through the use of technology, particularly in
light of our past and projected growth strategy. Many of our competitors have substantially greater
resources to invest in technological improvements. There can be no assurance that our technological
improvements will increase our operational efficiency or that we will be able to effectively
implement new technology-driven products and services or be successful in marketing these products
and services to our customers.

We are subject to various statutes and regulations that may limit our ability to take certain
actions.
We operate in a highly regulated industry and are subject to examination, supervision, and
comprehensive regulation by various regulatory agencies. Our compliance with these regulations is
costly and restricts certain of our activities, including payment of dividends, mergers and
acquisitions, investments, loans and interest rates charged, interest rates paid on deposits and
locations of offices. We are also subject to capitalization guidelines established by our
regulators, which require us to maintain adequate capital to support our growth. As economic
conditions deteriorate, our regulators may review our operations with more scrutiny and we may be
subject to increased regulatory oversight which could adversely affect our operations.
The laws and regulations applicable to the banking industry could change at any time, and we
cannot predict the effects of these changes on our business and profitability. Because government
regulation greatly affects the business and financial results of all commercial banks and bank
holding companies, our cost of compliance could adversely affect our ability to operate profitably.
