PART I

ITEM 1 Business

General

Pacific Continental Corporation (the “Company” or the “Registrant”) is an Oregon corporation and registered bank holding company headquartered in Eugene, Oregon. The Company was organized on June 7, 1999, pursuant to a holding company reorganization of Pacific Continental Bank, its wholly-owned subsidiary (“the Bank”).

The Company’s principal business activities are conducted through the Bank, an Oregon state-chartered bank with deposits insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Bank has two subsidiaries, PCB Service Corporation (presently inactive), which formerly held and managed Bank property, and PCB Loan Services (presently inactive), which formerly managed certain other real estate owned.

Results

All dollar amounts in the following sections are in thousands except per share amounts or where otherwise indicated.

For the year ended December 31, 2010, the consolidated net income of the Company was $5,092 or $0.28 per diluted share. At December 31, 2010, the consolidated shareholders’ equity of the Company was $172,238 with 18,415,132 shares outstanding and a book value of $9.35 per share. Total assets were $1,210,176. Loans net of allowance for loan losses and unearned fees, were $839,815 at December 31, 2010 and represented 69.4% of total assets. Deposits totaled $958,959 at year-end 2010 with core deposits representing $895,838 or 93.4% of total deposits. Core deposits are defined as all demand, interest checking, money market, savings and local non-public time deposits, including local non-public time deposits in excess of $100. At December 31, 2010, the Company had a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, and total risk-based capital ratio, of 13.38%, 15.86% and 17.10%, respectively, all of which are significantly above the minimum “well-capitalized” level for all capital ratios under FDIC guidelines of 5%, 6% and 10%, respectively. For more information regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, see Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Financial Statements and Supplementary Data in Items 7 and 8 of this Form 10-K.

THE BANK

General

The Bank commenced operations on August 15, 1972. The Bank operates in three primary markets: Portland, Oregon / Southwest Washington; Seattle, Washington; and Eugene, Oregon. At December 31, 2010, the Bank operated fourteen full-service offices in six Oregon and three Washington cities. The primary business strategy of the Bank is to operate in large commercial markets and to provide comprehensive banking and related services tailored to community-based businesses, not-for-profits, professional service providers and banking services for business owners and executives. The Bank emphasizes the diversity of its product lines, high levels of personal service, and through technology, offers convenient access typically associated with larger financial institutions, while maintaining local decision-making authority and market knowledge, typical of a local community bank. More information on the Bank and its banking services can be found on its website. The Bank operates under the banking laws of the State of Oregon, State of Washington, and the rules and regulations of the FDIC and the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco.

Primary Market Area

The Company’s primary markets consist of metropolitan Portland, which includes Southwest Washington, and metropolitan Eugene in the State of Oregon and metropolitan Seattle in the State of Washington. The Company has five full-service banking offices in the metropolitan Portland and Southwest Washington area, seven full-service banking offices in the metropolitan Eugene area, and two full-service offices in the metropolitan Seattle area. The Company has its headquarters and administrative office in Eugene, Oregon.

Competition

Commercial banking in the states of Oregon and Washington is highly competitive with respect to providing banking services, including making loans and attracting deposits. The Company competes with other banks, as well as with savings and loan associations, savings banks, credit unions, mortgage companies, investment banks, insurance companies, and other financial institutions. Banking in Oregon and Washington is dominated by several large banking institutions, including U.S. Bank, Wells Fargo Bank, Bank of America, Key Bank and Chase, which together account for a majority of the total commercial and savings bank deposits in Oregon and Washington. These competitors have significantly greater financial resources and offer a much greater number of branch locations. The Company offsets the advantage of the larger competitors by focusing on certain market segments, providing high levels of customization and personal service, and tailoring its technology, products and services to the specific market segments that the Company serves.

In addition to larger institutions, numerous “community” banks and credit unions have been formed, expanded or moved into the Company’s three primary areas and have developed a similar focus to that of the Company. These institutions have further increased competition in all three of the Company’s primary markets. This number of similar financial institutions and an increased focus by larger institutions in the Company’s primary markets has led to intensified competition in all aspects of the Company’s business, particularly in the area of loan and deposit pricing.

The adoption of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (the “GLB Act”) led to further intensification of competition in the financial services industry. The GLB Act eliminated many of the barriers to affiliation among providers of various types of financial services and has permitted business combinations among financial service providers such as banks, insurance companies, securities or brokerage firms, and other financial service providers. Additionally, the rapid adoption of financial services through the Internet has reduced or even eliminated many barriers to entry by financial service providers physically located outside our market area. For example, remote deposit services allow depository companies physically located in other geographical markets to service local businesses with minimal cost of entry. Although the Company has been able to compete effectively in the financial services business in its markets to date, there can be no assurance that it will be able to continue to do so in the future.

The financial services industry has experienced widespread consolidation over the last decade and more recently this consolidation has accelerated due to closures of banks by applicable regulators. During the past two years, 20 banks in Oregon and Washington have been closed. The Company anticipates that closures and consolidation among financial institutions in its market areas will continue. In particular, the current economic conditions suggest a number of bank failures are possible in 2011 and 2012 in the Company’s market areas that will accelerate consolidation in the region. In addition, with the recent passage of the Dodd-Frank Act, smaller financial institutions may find it difficult to continue to operate due to higher anticipated regulatory costs. This may create pressure on these institutions to seek partnerships or mergers with larger companies. The Company seeks acquisition opportunities, including FDIC assisted transactions, from time-to-time, in its existing markets and in new markets of strategic importance. However, other financial institutions aggressively compete against the Company in the acquisition market. Some of these institutions may have greater access to capital markets, larger cash reserves, and stock for use in acquisitions that is more liquid and more highly valued by the market.

In addition, the Company anticipates more competitive pressure for new loans in its markets. With loan demand relatively weak due to the economic conditions in the region, healthy banks with ample capital and liquidity are expected to aggressively seek to acquire new loan customers. This may cause pressure on loan pricing and make it more difficult to retain existing loan customers or attract new ones and may create compression in the net interest margin.

Services Provided

The Company offers a full array of financial service products to meet the banking needs of its targeted segments in the market areas served. The Company regularly reviews the profitability and desirability of various product offerings, particularly new product offerings, to assure on-going viability.

Deposit Services

The Company offers a full range of deposit services that are typically available in most banks and other financial institutions, including checking, savings, money market accounts and time deposits. The transaction accounts and time deposits are tailored to the Company’s primary markets and market segments at rates competitive with those offered in the area. Additional deposits are generated through national networks for institutional deposits. All deposit accounts are insured by the FDIC to the maximum amount permitted by law.

The Company has invested continuously in imaging technology since 1994 for the processing of checks. The Company was the first financial institution in Lane, Multnomah, Clackamas and Washington Counties to offer this service. Due to this investment in imaging technology, commencing in July 2007, the Company has been able to accelerate its funds availability by presenting all items for clearing to its correspondent banks via an imaged file. In addition, the Company provides on-line cash management, remote deposit capture, and banking services to businesses and consumers. The Company also allows 24-hour customer access to deposit and loan information via telephone and on-line cash management products.

Lending Activities

The Company emphasizes specific areas of lending within its primary markets. Secured and unsecured commercial loans are made primarily to professionals, community-based businesses, and not-for-profit organizations. These loans are available for general operating purposes, acquisition of fixed assets, purchases of equipment and machinery, financing of inventory and accounts receivable and other business purposes. The Company also originates Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans and is a national preferred lender.

Within its primary markets, the Company also originates permanent and construction loans financing commercial facilities and pre-sold, custom and speculative home construction. The major thrust of residential construction lending is smaller in-fill construction projects consisting of single-family residences. However, due to the rapid deterioration in the national and regional housing market, the Company severely restricted lending on speculative home construction and significantly reduced its exposure to residential construction lending. In addition, due to the economic recession and softness in commercial real estate markets, the Company has taken steps to reduce its exposure to commercial real estate loans, both for construction of new facilities and permanent loans for commercial facilities, particularly investor-owned facilities. The focus of the Company’s commercial real estate lending activities is primarily on owner-occupied facilities. The Company also finances requests for multi-family residences.

Inter-agency guidelines adopted by federal bank regulators mandate that financial institutions establish real estate lending policies with maximum allowable real estate loan-to-value limits, subject to an allowable amount of non-conforming loans as a percentage of capital. The Board of Directors has approved specific lending policies and procedures for the Company, and management is responsible for implementation of the policies. The lending policies and procedures include guidelines for loan term, loan-to-value ratios that are within established federal banking guidelines, collateral appraisals and cash flow coverage. The loan policies also vest varying levels of loan authority in management, the Company’s Loan Committee and the Board of Directors. Company management monitors lending activities through management meetings, loan committee meetings, monthly reporting, and periodic review of loans by third-party contractors.

Fixed rate and variable rate residential mortgage loans are offered through the Company’s mortgage loan department. Most residential mortgage loans originated are sold in the secondary market along with the mortgage loan servicing rights.

The Company makes secured and unsecured loans to individuals for various purposes including purchases of automobiles, mobile homes, boats, and other recreational vehicles, home improvements, education, and personal investment.

Merchant and Card Services

The Company provides merchant card payment services, through an outside processor, for its client base, including community-based businesses, not-for-profits, and professional service providers. This includes processing of credit card transactions and issuance of business credit cards. This service is an integral part of the Company’s strategy to focus on marketing to community-based business, not-for-profits, and professional service providers. During 2010, the Company processed approximately $205,000 in credit card transactions for its merchant clients. The Company also offers credit card services to its business customers and uses an outside vendor for credit card processing. The Company does not issue credit cards to individuals.

Other Services

The Company provides other traditional commercial and consumer banking services, including cash management products for businesses, on-line banking, safe deposit services, debit and ATM cards, ACH transactions, savings bonds, cashier’s checks, travelers’ checks, notary services and others. The Company is a member of numerous ATM networks and utilizes an outside processor for the processing of these automated transactions. The Company has an agreement with MoneyPass, an ATM provider that permits Company customers to use MoneyPass ATM’s located throughout the country at no charge to the customer.

Employees

At December 31, 2010, the Company employed 263 full-time equivalent (“FTE”) employees with 24 FTE’s in the Seattle market, 51 FTE’s in the Portland market, 83 FTE’s in the Eugene market and 105 FTE’s in administrative functions located in Eugene, Oregon. None of these employees are represented by labor unions, and management believes that the Company’s relationship with its employees is good. The Company emphasizes a positive work environment for its employees, which is validated by recognition from independent third-parties. During 2010, the Company was recognized for the tenth consecutive year by Oregon Business Magazine as one of Oregon’s Best 100 Companies for which to work, and was the highest-rated financial institution in the state. Additionally, the Company was named one of Oregon’s Most Admired Companies by the Portland Business Journal. The Company and its employees have also been recognized for their involvement in the community. Management continually strives to retain and attract top talent as well as provide career development opportunities to enhance skill levels. A number of benefit programs are available to eligible employees, including group medical plans, paid sick leave, paid vacation, group life insurance, 401(k) plans, and equity compensation plans.

Supervision and Regulation

General

The following discussion provides an overview of certain elements of the extensive regulatory framework applicable to the Company and the Bank. This regulatory framework is primarily designed for the protection of depositors, federal deposit insurance funds and the banking system as a whole, rather than specifically for the protection of shareholders. Due to the breadth and growth of this regulatory framework, our costs of compliance continue to increase in order to monitor and satisfy these requirements.

To the extent that this section describes statutory and regulatory provisions, it is qualified by reference to those provisions. These statutes and regulations, as well as related policies, are subject to change by Congress, state legislatures and federal and state regulators. Changes in statutes, regulations or regulatory policies applicable to us, including the interpretation or implementation thereof, could have a material effect on our business or operations. In light of the recent financial crisis, numerous proposals to modify or expand banking regulation have surfaced. Based on past history, if any are approved, they will add to the complexity and cost of our business.

Federal Bank Holding Company Regulation

General. The Company is a bank holding company as defined in the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (“BHCA”), and is therefore subject to regulation, supervision and examination by the Federal Reserve. In general, the BHCA limits the business of bank holding companies to owning or controlling banks and engaging in other activities closely related to banking. The Company must file reports with and provide the Federal Reserve such additional information as it may require. Under the Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999, a bank holding company may apply to the Federal Reserve to become a financial holding company, and thereby engage (directly or through a subsidiary) in certain expanded activities deemed financial in nature, such as securities brokerage and insurance underwriting.

Holding Company Bank Ownership. The BHCA requires every bank holding company to obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve before (i) acquiring, directly or indirectly, ownership or control of any voting shares of another bank or bank holding company if, after such acquisition, it would own or control more than 5% of such shares; (ii) acquiring all or substantially all of the assets of another bank or bank holding company; or (iii) merging or consolidating with another bank holding company.

Holding Company Control of Nonbanks. With some exceptions, the BHCA also prohibits a bank holding company from acquiring or retaining direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any company which is not a bank or bank holding company, or from engaging directly or indirectly in activities other than those of banking, managing or controlling banks, or providing services for its subsidiaries. The principal exceptions to these prohibitions involve certain non-bank activities that, by statute or by Federal Reserve regulation or order, have been identified as activities closely related to the business of banking or of managing or controlling banks.

Transactions with Affiliates. Subsidiary banks of a bank holding company are subject to restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Act on extensions of credit to the holding company or its subsidiaries, on investments in their securities, and on the use of their securities as collateral for loans to any borrower. These regulations and restrictions may limit the Company’s ability to obtain funds from the Bank for its cash needs, including funds for payment of dividends, interest and operational expenses.

Tying Arrangements. We are prohibited from engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in connection with any extension of credit, sale or lease of property or furnishing of services. For example, with certain exceptions, neither the Company nor its subsidiaries may condition an extension of credit to a customer on either (i) a requirement that the customer obtain additional services provided by us; or (ii) an agreement by the customer to refrain from obtaining other services from a competitor.

Support of Subsidiary Banks. Under Federal Reserve policy, the Company is expected to act as a source of financial and managerial strength to the Bank. This means that the Company is required to commit, as necessary, resources to support the Bank. Any capital loans a bank holding company makes to its subsidiary banks are subordinate to deposits and to certain other indebtedness of those subsidiary banks.

State Law Restrictions. As an Oregon corporation, the Company is subject to certain limitations and restrictions under applicable Oregon corporate law. For example, state law restrictions and limitations in Oregon include indemnification of directors, distributions to shareholders, transactions involving directors, officers or interested shareholders, maintenance of books, records and minutes, and observance of certain corporate formalities.

Federal and State Regulation of Pacific Continental Bank

General. The Bank is an Oregon commercial bank operating in Oregon and Washington with deposits insured by the FDIC. As a result, the Bank is subject to supervision and regulation by the Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services (the “Oregon Department”) and the FDIC. These agencies have the authority to prohibit banks from engaging in what they believe constitute unsafe or unsound banking practices. Additionally, the Bank’s branches in Washington are subject to supervision and regulation by the Washington Department of Financial Institutions and must comply with applicable Washington laws regarding community reinvestment, consumer protection, fair lending, and intrastate branching.

Community Reinvestment. The Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 (“CRA”) requires that, in connection with examinations of financial institutions within their jurisdiction, the FDIC evaluate the record of the financial institution in meeting the credit needs of its local communities, including low and moderate-income neighborhoods, consistent with the safe and sound operation of the institution. A bank’s community reinvestment record is also considered by the applicable banking agencies in evaluating mergers, acquisitions and applications to open a branch or facility.

Insider Credit Transactions. Banks are also subject to certain restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Act on extensions of credit to executive officers, directors, principal shareholders or any related interests of such persons. Extensions of credit (i) must be made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, and follow credit underwriting procedures that are at least as stringent as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with persons not covered above and who are not employees; and (ii) must not involve more than the normal risk of repayment or present other unfavorable features. Banks are also subject to certain lending limits and restrictions on overdrafts to insiders. A violation of these restrictions may result in the assessment of substantial civil monetary penalties, the imposition of a cease and desist order, and other regulatory sanctions.

Regulation of Management. Federal law (i) sets forth circumstances under which officers or directors of a bank may be removed by the institution's federal supervisory agency; (ii) places restraints on lending by a bank to its executive officers, directors, principal shareholders and their related interests; and (iii) prohibits management personnel of a bank from serving as a director or in other management positions of another financial institution whose assets exceed a specified amount or which has an office within a specified geographic area.

Safety and Soundness Standards. Federal law imposes certain non-capital safety and soundness standards upon banks. These standards cover internal controls, information systems and internal audit systems, loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth, compensation, fees and benefits, such other operational and managerial standards as the agency determines to be appropriate, and standards for asset quality, earnings and stock valuation. An institution that fails to meet these standards must develop a plan acceptable to its regulators, specifying the steps that the institution will take to meet the standards. Failure to submit or implement such a plan may subject the institution to regulatory sanctions.

Interstate Banking and Branching

The Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 (“Interstate Act”) relaxed prior interstate branching restrictions under federal law by permitting nationwide interstate banking and branching under certain circumstances. Generally, bank holding companies may purchase banks in any state, and states may not prohibit these purchases. Additionally, banks are permitted to merge with banks in other states, as long as the home state of neither merging bank has opted out under the legislation. The Interstate Act requires regulators to consult with community organizations before permitting an interstate institution to close a branch in a low-income area. Federal banking agency regulations prohibit banks from using their interstate branches primarily for deposit production and the federal banking agencies have implemented a loan-to-deposit ratio screen to ensure compliance with this prohibition.

Oregon and Washington have both enacted “opting in” legislation in accordance with the Interstate Act, allowing banks to engage in interstate merger transactions, subject to certain “aging” requirements. Oregon restricts an out-of-state bank from opening de novo branches. However, once an out-of-state bank has acquired a bank within Oregon, either through merger or acquisition of all or substantially all of the bank’s assets or through authorized de novo branching, the out-of-state bank may open additional branches within Oregon. Under Washington law, an out-of-state bank may, subject to Department of Financial Institutions’ approval, open de novo branches in Washington or acquire an in-state branch so long as the home state of the out-of-state bank has reciprocal laws with respect to de novo branching or branch acquisitions.

Dividends

The principal source of the Company’s cash is from dividends received from the Bank, which are subject to government regulation and limitations. In addition, capital raises provide another source of cash. Regulatory authorities may prohibit banks and bank holding companies from paying dividends in a manner that would constitute an unsafe or unsound banking practice or would reduce the amount of its capital below that necessary to meet minimum applicable regulatory capital requirements. Oregon law and Federal Reserve Bank guidelines also limit a bank’s ability to pay dividends that are greater than retained earnings without approval of the applicable state regulators. The Bank entered into an informal agreement with the FDIC, the Oregon Department, and the Federal Reserve, which requires the Bank to obtain advance approval from the FDIC and the Oregon Department prior to paying any dividends or making interest payments on its trust preferred debt. Payment of cash dividends by the Company and the Bank will depend on sufficient earnings to support them and approval of appropriate bank regulatory authorities.

Capital Adequacy

Regulatory Capital Guidelines. Federal bank regulatory agencies use capital adequacy guidelines in the examination and regulation of bank holding companies and banks. The guidelines are “risk-based,” meaning that they are designed to make capital requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profiles among banks and bank holding companies.

Tier 1 and Tier 2 Capital. Under the guidelines, an institution’s capital is divided into two broad categories, Tier 1 capital and Tier 2 capital. Tier 1 capital generally consists of common stockholders’ equity, surplus and undivided profits. Tier 2 capital generally consists of the allowance for loan losses, hybrid capital instruments, and subordinated debt. The sum of Tier 1 capital and Tier 2 capital represents an institution’s total capital. The guidelines require that at least 50% of an institution’s total capital consist of Tier 1 capital.

Risk-based Capital Ratios. The adequacy of an institution’s capital is gauged primarily with reference to the institution’s risk-weighted assets. The guidelines assign risk weightings to an institution’s assets in an effort to quantify the relative risk of each asset and to determine the minimum capital required to support that risk. An institution’s risk-weighted assets are then compared with its Tier 1 capital and total capital to arrive at a Tier 1 risk-based ratio and a total risk-based ratio, respectively. The guidelines provide that an institution must have a minimum Tier 1 risk-based ratio of 4% and a minimum total risk-based ratio of 8%.

Leverage Ratio. The guidelines also employ a leverage ratio, which is Tier 1 capital as a percentage of average total assets, less goodwill and intangible assets. The principal objective of the leverage ratio is to constrain the maximum degree to which a bank holding company may leverage its equity capital base. The minimum leverage ratio is 3%; however, for all but the most highly rated bank holding companies and for bank holding companies seeking to expand, regulators expect an additional cushion of at least 1% to 2%.

Prompt Corrective Action. Under the guidelines, an institution is assigned to one of five capital categories depending on its total risk-based capital ratio, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, and leverage ratio, together with certain subjective factors. The categories range from “well-capitalized” to “critically under capitalized.” Institutions that are “under capitalized” or lower are subject to certain mandatory supervisory corrective actions. At each successively lower capital category, an insured bank is subject to increased restrictions on its operations. During these challenging economic times, the federal banking regulators have actively enforced these provisions.

Regulatory Oversight and Examination

The Federal Reserve conducts periodic inspections of bank holding companies, which are performed both onsite and offsite. The supervisory objectives of the inspection program are to ascertain whether the financial strength of the bank holding company is being maintained on an ongoing basis and to determine the effects or consequences of transactions between a holding company or its non-banking subsidiaries and its subsidiary banks. For holding companies under $10 billion in assets, the inspection type and frequency varies depending on asset size, complexity of the organization and the holding company’s rating at its last inspection.

Banks are subject to periodic examinations by their primary regulators. Bank examinations have evolved from reliance on transaction testing in assessing a bank’s condition to a risk-focused approach. These examinations are extensive and cover the entire breadth of operations of the Bank. Generally, safety and soundness examinations occur on an 18-month cycle for banks under $500 million in total assets that are well-capitalized and without regulatory issues, and on a 12-month cycle otherwise. Examinations alternate between the federal and state bank regulatory agency and may occur on a combined schedule. The frequency of consumer compliance and CRA examinations is linked to the size of the institution and its compliance and CRA ratings at its most recent examinations. However, the examination authority of the Federal Reserve and the FDIC allows them to examine supervised banks as frequently as deemed necessary based on the condition of the Bank or as a result of certain triggering events. The Bank is party to an informal agreement with the FDIC, the Federal Reserve Bank and the Oregon Department, which outlines specific areas for improvement primarily related to capital levels and levels of classified assets. In addition, the agreement requires the Bank to obtain advance approval from the FDIC and the Oregon Department before the Bank may pay any dividends to the Company. At December 31, 2010, management believes it has achieved all objectives and improvements requested in the agreement.

Corporate Governance and Accounting

Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Act”) addresses, among other things, corporate governance, auditing and accounting, enhanced and timely disclosure of corporate information, and penalties for non-compliance. Generally, the Act (i) requires chief executive officers and chief financial officers to certify to the accuracy of periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”); (ii) imposes specific and enhanced corporate disclosure requirements; (iii) accelerates the time frame for reporting of insider transactions and periodic disclosures by public companies; (iv) requires companies to adopt and disclose information about corporate governance practices, including whether or not they have adopted a code of ethics for senior financial officers and whether the audit committee includes at least one “audit committee financial expert;” and (v) requires the SEC, based on certain enumerated factors, to regularly and systematically review corporate filings.

As a publicly reporting company, we are subject to the requirements of the Act and related rules and regulations issued by the SEC and NASDAQ. After enactment, we updated our policies and procedures to comply with the Act’s requirements and have found that such compliance, including compliance with Section 404 of the Act relating to internal control over financial reporting, has resulted in significant additional expense for the Company. We anticipate that we will continue to incur such additional expense in our ongoing compliance.

Anti-terrorism

USA Patriot Act of 2001. The Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, intended to combat terrorism, was renewed with certain amendments in 2006 (the “Patriot Act”). Certain provisions of the Patriot Act were made permanent and other sections were made subject to extended “sunset” provisions. The Patriot Act, in relevant part, (i) prohibits banks from providing correspondent accounts directly to foreign shell banks; (ii) imposes due diligence requirements on banks opening or holding accounts for foreign financial institutions or wealthy foreign individuals; (iii) requires financial institutions to establish an anti-money-laundering compliance program; and (iv) eliminates civil liability for persons who file suspicious activity reports.

Financial Services Modernization

Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999 brought about significant changes to the laws affecting banks and bank holding companies. Generally, the Act (i) repeals historical restrictions on preventing banks from affiliating with securities firms; (ii) provides a uniform framework for the activities of banks, savings institutions and their holding companies; (iii) broadens the activities that may be conducted by national banks and banking subsidiaries of bank holding companies; (iv) provides an enhanced framework for protecting the privacy of consumer information and requires notification to consumers of bank privacy policies; and (v) addresses a variety of other legal and regulatory issues affecting both day-to-day operations and long-term activities of financial institutions. Bank holding companies that qualify and elect to become financial holding companies can engage in a wider variety of financial activities than permitted under previous law, particularly with respect to insurance and securities underwriting activities.

The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008

Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008. In response to market turmoil and financial crises affecting the overall banking system and financial markets in the United States, the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (“EESA”) was enacted on October 3, 2008. EESA provides the United States Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) with broad authority to implement certain actions intended to help restore stability and liquidity to the U.S. financial markets.

Troubled Asset Relief Program. Under the EESA, the Treasury has authority, among other things, to purchase up to $700 billion in mortgage loans, mortgage-related securities and certain other financial instruments, including debt and equity securities issued by financial institutions pursuant to the Troubled Asset Relief Program (“TARP”). The purpose of TARP is to restore confidence and stability to the U.S. banking system and to encourage financial institutions to increase lending to customers and to each other. Pursuant to the EESA, the Treasury was initially authorized to use $350 billion for TARP. Of this amount, the Treasury allocated $250 billion to the TARP Capital Purchase Program, which funds were used to purchase preferred stock from qualifying financial institutions. After receiving preliminary approval from Treasury to participate in the program, the Company elected not to participate in light of its capital position and due to its ability to raise capital successfully in private equity markets.

Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program. Another program established pursuant to the EESA is the Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (“TLGP”), which (i) removed the limit on FDIC deposit insurance coverage for non-interest bearing transaction accounts through December 31, 2009, and (ii) provided FDIC backing for certain types of senior unsecured debt issued from October 14, 2008, through June 30, 2009. The end-date for issuing senior unsecured debt was later extended to October 31, 2009 and the FDIC also extended the Transaction Account Guarantee portion of the TLGP through December 31, 2010. Financial institutions that did not opt out of unlimited coverage for non-interest bearing accounts were initially charged an annualized 10 basis points on individual account balances exceeding $250,000, and those issuing FDIC-backed senior unsecured debt were initially charged an annualized 75 basis points on all such debt, although those rates were subsequently increased. We elected to fully participate in both parts of the TLGP.

Deposit Insurance

The Bank’s deposits are insured under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, up to the maximum applicable limits and are subject to deposit insurance assessments designed to tie what banks pay for deposit insurance more closely to the risks they pose. The Bank has prepaid its quarterly deposit insurance assessments for 2011 and 2012 pursuant to applicable FDIC regulations, but the passage of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) in July 2010 required the FDIC to amend its regulations to redefine the assessment base used for calculating deposit insurance assessments. As a result, in February 2011, the FDIC approved new rules to, among other things, change the assessment base from one based on domestic deposits (as it has been since 1935) to one based on assets (average consolidated total assets minus average tangible equity). Since the new assessment base is larger than the base used under prior regulations, the rules also lower assessment rates, so that the total amount of revenue collected by the FDIC from the industry is not significantly altered. The rule also revises the deposit insurance assessment system for large financial institutions, defined as institutions with at least $10 billion in assets. The rules revise the assessment rate schedule, effective April 1, 2011, and adopt additional rate schedules that will go into effect when the Deposit Insurance Fund reserve ratio reaches various milestones.

Insurance of Deposit Accounts. The EESA included a provision for a temporary increase from $100,000 to $250,000 per depositor in deposit insurance effective October 3, 2008, through December 31, 2010. On May 20, 2009, the temporary increase was extended through December 31, 2013. The Dodd-Frank Act permanently raises the current standard maximum deposit insurance amount to $250,000. The FDIC insurance coverage limit applies per depositor, per insured depository institution for each account ownership category. EESA also temporarily raised the limit on federal deposit insurance coverage to an unlimited amount for non-interest or low-interest bearing demand deposits. Pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, unlimited coverage for non-interest transaction accounts will continue upon expiration of the TLGP until December 31, 2012.

Recent Legislation

Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. As a result of the recent financial crises, on July 21, 2010, the Dodd-Frank Act was signed into law. The Dodd-Frank Act is expected to have a broad impact on the financial services industry, including significant regulatory and compliance changes and changes to corporate governance matters affecting public companies. Many of the requirements called for in the Dodd-Frank Act will be implemented over time and most will be subject to implementing regulations over the course of several years. Among other things, the legislation (i) centralizes responsibility for consumer financial protection by creating a new agency responsible for implementing, examining and enforcing compliance with federal consumer financial laws; (ii) applies the same leverage and risk-based capital requirements that apply to insured depository institutions to bank holding companies; (iii) requires the FDIC to seek to make its capital requirements for banks countercyclical so that the amount of capital required to be maintained increases in times of economic expansion and decreases in times of economic contraction; (iv) changes the assessment base for federal deposit insurance from the amount of insured deposits to consolidated assets less tangible capital; (v) requires the SEC to complete studies and develop rules or approve stock exchange rules regarding various investor protection issues, including shareholder access to the proxy process, and various matters pertaining to executive compensation and compensation committee oversight; (vi) makes permanent the $250,000 limit for federal deposit insurance and provides unlimited federal deposit insurance until December 31, 2012, for non-interest bearing transaction accounts; and (vii) repeals the federal prohibitions on the payment of interest on demand deposits, thereby permitting depository institutions to pay interest on business transaction and other accounts. Many aspects of the Dodd-Frank Act are subject to rulemaking and will take effect over several years, making it difficult to anticipate the overall financial impact on the Company, the Bank and the financial services industry more generally. However, based on past experience with new legislation, it can be anticipated that the Dodd-Frank Act, directly and indirectly, will impact the business of the Company and the Bank and increase compliance costs.

American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. On February 17, 2009, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (“ARRA”) was signed into law. ARRA is intended to help stimulate the economy through a combination of tax cuts and spending provisions applicable to a broad range of areas with an estimated cost of $787 billion. The impact that ARRA may have on the U.S. economy, the Company and the Bank cannot be predicted with certainty.

Overdrafts. On November 17, 2009, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System promulgated the Electronic Fund Transfer rule with an effective date of January 19, 2010, and a mandatory compliance date of July 1, 2010. The rule, which applies to all FDIC-regulated institutions, prohibits financial institutions from assessing an overdraft fee for paying automated teller machine (“ATM”) and one-time point-of-sale debit card transactions, unless the customer affirmatively opts in to the overdraft service for those types of transactions. The opt-in provision establishes requirements for clear disclosure of fees and terms of overdraft services for ATM and one-time debit card transactions. Since a percentage of the Company’s service charges on deposits are in the form of overdraft fees on point-of-sale transactions, this could have an adverse impact on our non-interest income.

Proposed Legislation

Proposed legislation that may affect the Company and the Bank is introduced in almost every legislative session. Certain of such legislation could dramatically affect the regulation of the banking industry. We cannot predict if any such legislation will be adopted or if it is adopted how it would affect the business of the Bank or the Company. Past history has demonstrated that new legislation or changes to existing laws or regulations usually results in a greater compliance burden and therefore generally increases the cost of doing business.

Effects of Government Monetary Policy

Our earnings and growth are affected not only by general economic conditions, but also by the fiscal and monetary policies of the federal government, particularly the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve implements national monetary policy for such purposes as curbing inflation and combating recession, and its open market operations in U.S. government securities, control of the discount rate applicable to borrowings from the Federal Reserve, and establishment of reserve requirements against certain deposits, influence the growth of bank loans, investments and deposits, and also affect interest rates charged on loans or paid on deposits. The nature and impact of future changes in monetary policies, and their impact on us cannot be predicted with certainty.

Loan Concentrations

At December 31, 2010, loans to dental professionals totaled $177,229 and represented 20.7% of outstanding loans. At December 31, 2010, residential construction loans totaled $22,683 and represented 2.6% of outstanding loans. In addition, at December 31, 2010, unfunded loan commitments for residential construction totaled $7,740. Approximately 70.7% of the Company’s loans are secured by real estate. Management believes the granular nature of the portfolio, from industry mix, geographic location and loan size, continues to disperse risk concentration to some degree.

Nonperforming Assets

The following table presents period-end nonperforming loans and assets for the five year periods ended December 31, 2010:

During 2010, the Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $15,000 compared to $36,000 for the year 2009. The decrease in the loan loss provision was due to a significant reduction in exposure to construction and land development loans. The reduced exposure to risk was further demonstrated by a substantial decrease in the level of net charge offs during 2010 when compared to 2009. At December 31, 2010, the Company’s recorded investment in nonperforming loans, net of government guarantees, was $31,970, with a specific allowance of $86 provided for in the ending allowance for loan losses.

While the Company saw some positive trends in fourth quarter 2010 with regard to the overall credit quality of the loan portfolio, management cannot predict the level of the provision for loan losses, the level of the allowance for loan losses, nor the level of nonperforming assets in future quarters as a result of uncertain economic conditions. At December 31, 2010, and as shown above, the Company’s unallocated reserves were $1,194 or 7.2% of the total allowance for loan losses at year-end. The decrease in unallocated reserves compared to 2009 was due to improved market conditions. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2010 is adequate and that this level of unallocated reserves was prudent in light of the economic conditions and uncertainty that exists in the Northwest markets that the Company serves.

Deposits

Average balances and average rates paid by category of deposit are included in the Company’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Item 7 of this report. The chart below details period-end information related to the Company’s time deposits at December 31, 2010. The Company does not have any foreign deposits.

Borrowings

The Company uses short-term borrowings to fund fluctuations in deposits and loan demand. The Company’s subsidiary, Pacific Continental Bank, has access to both secured and unsecured overnight borrowing lines. The secured borrowing lines are collateralized by both loans and securities. At December 31, 2010, the Company had secured borrowing lines with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle (the “FHLB”) and the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (the “FRB”). The borrowing line at the FHLB is limited by the lesser of the value of discounted collateral pledged or the amount of FHLB stock held. At December 31, 2010, the FHLB borrowing line was limited by the amount of discounted collateral pledged, which limited total borrowings to $152,237. The borrowing line with the FRB is limited by the value of discounted collateral pledged, which at December 31, 2010 was $104,950. At December 31, 2010, the Company also had unsecured borrowing lines with various correspondent banks totaling $88,000. At December 31, 2010, there was $278,187 available on

secured and unsecured borrowing lines with the FHLB, FRB, and various correspondent banks. The Company did not have any short-term borrowings at December 31, 2010.

At December 31, 2010, the Company had FHLB borrowings totaling $67,000 with a weighted average interest rate of 3.1% and a remaining average maturity of approximately 2.3 years. More information on long-term borrowings can be found in Note 9 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 below.

The Company’s other long-term borrowings consist of $8,248 in junior subordinated debentures originated on November 28, 2005, and due on January 7, 2036. The interest rate on the debentures was 6.265% until January 2011, after which it was converted to a floating rate of three-month LIBOR plus 135 basis points. At January 7, 2011 (the most recent rate reset date) the interest rate was 1.65%.

ITEM 1A Risk Factors

The continued challenging economic environment could have a material adverse effect on our future results of operations or market price of our stock.

The national economy and the financial services sector in particular, are still facing significant challenges. Substantially all of our loans are to businesses and individuals in western Washington and Oregon, markets facing many of the same challenges as the national economy, including elevated unemployment and declines in commercial and residential real estate values. Although some economic indicators are improving both nationally and in the markets we serve, unemployment remains high and there remains substantial uncertainty regarding when and how strongly a sustained economic recovery will occur. A further deterioration in economic conditions in the nation as a whole or in the markets we serve could result in the following consequences, any of which could have an adverse impact, which may be material, on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, and could also cause the market price of our stock to decline:

·	economic conditions may worsen, increasing the likelihood of credit defaults by borrowers;

·	loan collateral values, especially as they relate to commercial and residential real estate, may decline further, thereby increasing the severity of loss in the event of loan defaults;

·	demand for banking products and services may decline, including services for low cost and non-interest-bearing deposits; and

·	changes and volatility in interest rates may negatively impact the yields on earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities.

Our allowance for loan losses may not be adequate to cover actual loan losses, which could adversely affect our earnings.

We maintain an allowance for loan losses in an amount that we believe is adequate to provide for losses inherent in our loan portfolio. While we strive to carefully manage and monitor credit quality and to identify loans that may be deteriorating, at any time there are loans included in the portfolio that may result in losses, but that have not yet been identified as potential problem loans. Through established credit practices, we attempt to identify deteriorating loans and adjust the loan loss reserve accordingly. However, because future events are uncertain, there may be loans that deteriorate in an accelerated time frame. As a result, future additions to the allowance at elevated levels may be necessary. Because the loan portfolio contains a number of commercial real estate loans with relatively large balances, deterioration in the credit quality of one or more of these loans may require a significant increase to the allowance for loan losses. Future additions to the allowance may also be required based on changes in the financial condition of borrowers, such as have resulted due to the current, and potentially worsening, economic conditions. Additionally, federal banking regulators, as an integral part of their supervisory function, periodically review our allowance for loan losses. These regulatory agencies may require us to recognize further loan loss provisions or charge-offs based upon their judgments, which may be different from ours. Any increase in the allowance for loan losses would have an adverse effect, which may be material, on our financial condition and results of operations.

Concentration in real estate loans and the deterioration in the real estate markets we serve could require material increases in our allowance for loan losses and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

The recent economic downturn and sluggish recovery is significantly impacting our market area. We have a high degree of concentration in loans secured by real estate (see Note 3 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report). Further deterioration in the local economies we serve could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations due to a weakening of our borrowers’ ability to repay these loans and a decline in the value of the collateral securing them. Our ability to recover on these loans by selling or disposing of the underlying real estate collateral is adversely impacted by declining real estate values, which increases the likelihood we will suffer losses on defaulted loans secured by real estate beyond the amounts provided for in the allowance for loan losses. This, in turn, could require material increases in our allowance for loan losses and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations, perhaps materially.

Non-performing assets take significant time to resolve and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

At December 31, 2010, our non-performing loans (which include all nonaccrual loans, net of government guarantees) were 3.73% of the loan portfolio. At December 31, 2010, our non-performing assets (which include foreclosed real estate) were 3.82% of total assets. These levels of non-performing loans and assets are at elevated levels compared to historical norms. Non-performing loans and assets adversely affect our net income in various ways. Until economic and market conditions improve, we may expect to continue to incur losses relating to non-performing assets. We generally do not record interest income on non-performing loans or other real estate owned, thereby adversely affecting our income, and increasing our loan administration costs. When we take collateral in foreclosures and similar proceedings, we are required to mark the related asset to the then fair market value of the collateral, which may ultimately result in a loss. An increase in the level of non-performing assets increases our risk profile and may impact the capital levels our regulators believe are appropriate in light of the ensuing risk profile. While we reduce problem assets through loan sales, workouts, and restructurings and otherwise, decreases in the value of the underlying collateral, or in these borrowers’ performance or financial condition, whether or not due to economic and market conditions beyond our control, could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, perhaps materially. In addition, the resolution of non-performing assets requires significant commitments of time from management and our directors, which can be detrimental to the performance of their other responsibilities. There can be no assurance that we will not experience future increases in non-performing assets.

Tightening of credit markets and liquidity risk could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

A tightening of the credit markets or any inability to obtain adequate funds for continued loan growth at an acceptable cost could adversely affect our asset growth and liquidity position and, therefore, our earnings capability. In addition to core deposit growth, maturity of investment securities and loan payments, the Company also relies on wholesale funding sources including unsecured borrowing lines with correspondent banks, secured borrowing lines with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle and the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, public time certificates of deposits and out of area and brokered time certificates of deposit. Our ability to access these sources could be impaired by deterioration in our financial condition as well as factors that are not specific to us, such as a disruption in the financial markets or negative views and expectations for the financial services industry or serious dislocation in the general credit markets. In the event such disruption should occur, our ability to access these sources could be adversely affected, both as to price and availability, which would limit, or potentially raise the cost of, the funds available to the Company.

The FDIC has increased insurance premiums to rebuild and maintain the federal deposit insurance fund and there may be additional future premium increases and special assessments.

In 2009, the FDIC imposed a special deposit insurance assessment of five basis points on all insured institutions, and also required insured institutions to prepay estimated quarterly risk-based assessments through 2012.

The Dodd-Frank Act established 1.35% as the minimum deposit insurance fund reserve ratio. The FDIC has determined that the fund reserve ratio should be 2.0% and has adopted a plan under which it will meet the statutory minimum fund reserve ratio of 1.35% by the statutory deadline of September 30, 2020. The Dodd-Frank Act requires the FDIC to offset the effect on institutions with assets less than $10 billion of the increase in the statutory minimum fund reserve ratio to 1.35% from the former statutory minimum of 1.15%. The FDIC has not announced how it will implement this offset or how larger institutions will be affected by it.

Despite the FDIC’s actions to restore the deposit insurance fund, the fund will suffer additional losses in the future due to failures of insured institutions. There can be no assurance that there will not be additional significant deposit insurance premium increases, special assessments or prepayments in order to restore the insurance fund’s reserve ratio. Any significant premium increases or special assessments could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

We may not have the ability to continue paying dividends on our common stock at current or historic levels.

Our ability to pay dividends on our common stock depends on a variety of factors. On November 17, 2010, we announced a quarterly dividend of $0.01 per share, payable December 15, 2010, which was a continuation of the prior quarter’s dividend. For the year 2010, the Company paid $0.04 per share in dividends. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue paying quarterly dividends commensurate with historic levels, if at all. Cash dividends will depend on sufficient earnings to support them and approval of appropriate bank regulatory authorities.

We may be required, in the future, to recognize impairment with respect to investment securities, including the FHLB stock we hold.

Our securities portfolio contains whole loan private mortgage-backed securities and currently includes securities with unrecognized losses. We may continue to observe volatility in the fair market value of these securities. We evaluate the securities portfolio for any other-than-temporary-impairment (“OTTI”) each reporting period, as required by generally accepted accounting principles. In the second quarter of 2010, we recognized OTTI of $226 on five of our private-label mortgage-backed securities. There can be no assurance that future evaluations of the securities portfolio will not require us to recognize additional impairment charges with respect to these and other holdings.

In addition, as a condition to membership in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle (“FHLB”), we are required to purchase and hold a certain amount of FHLB stock. Our stock purchase requirement is based, in part, upon the outstanding principal balance of advances from the FHLB. At December 31, 2010, we had stock in the FHLB of Seattle totaling $10,652. The FHLB stock held by us is carried at cost and is subject to recoverability testing under applicable accounting standards. The FHLB has discontinued the repurchase of their stock and discontinued the distribution of dividends. As of December 31, 2010, we did not recognize an impairment charge related to our FHLB stock holdings. There can be no assurance, however, that future negative changes to the financial condition of the FHLB will not necessitate the recognition of an impairment charge with respect to such holdings.

If the goodwill we have recorded in connection with acquisitions becomes impaired, it could have an adverse impact on our reported earnings.

At December 31, 2010, we had $22,031 of goodwill on our balance sheet. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, our goodwill is not amortized but rather evaluated for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that a potential impairment exists. Such evaluation is based on a variety of factors, including the quoted price of our common stock, market prices of common stocks of other banking organizations, common stock trading multiples, discounted cash flows, and data from comparable acquisitions. There can be no assurance that future evaluations of goodwill will not result in findings of impairment and write-downs, which could be material. At December 31, 2010, we did not recognize an impairment charge related to our goodwill.

Recent levels of market volatility were unprecedented and we cannot predict whether they will return.

From time-to-time over the last few years, the capital and credit markets have experienced volatility and disruption at unprecedented levels. In some cases, the markets have produced downward pressure on stock prices and credit availability for certain issuers without regard to those issuers’ underlying financial strength. If similar levels of market disruption and volatility return, there can be no assurance that we will not experience an adverse effect, which may be material, on our ability to access capital and on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We operate in a highly regulated environment and we cannot predict the effect of recent and pending federal legislation.

As discussed more fully in the section entitled “Supervision and Regulation”, we are subject to extensive regulation, supervision and examination by federal and state banking authorities. In addition, as a publicly traded company, we are subject to regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any change in applicable regulations or federal, state or local legislation could have a substantial impact on us and our operations. Additional legislation and regulations that could significantly affect our powers, authority and operations may be enacted or adopted in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations

In that regard, sweeping financial regulatory reform legislation was enacted in July 2010. Among other provisions, the new legislation (i) creates a new Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection with broad powers to regulate consumer financial products such as credit cards and mortgages, (ii) creates a Financial Stability Oversight Council comprised of the heads of other regulatory agencies, (iii) will lead to new capital requirements from federal banking agencies, (iv) places new limits on electronic debit card interchange fees, and (v) will require the Securities and Exchange Commission and national stock exchanges to adopt significant new corporate governance and executive compensation reforms. The new legislation and regulations are likely to increase the overall costs of regulatory compliance.

Further, regulators have significant discretion and authority to prevent or remedy unsafe or unsound practices or violations of laws or regulations by financial institutions and holding companies in the performance of their supervisory and enforcement duties. Recently, these powers have been utilized more frequently due to the serious national, regional and local economic conditions we are facing. The exercise of regulatory authority may have a negative impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

We cannot accurately predict the ultimate effects of recent legislation or the various governmental, regulatory, monetary and fiscal initiatives which have been and may be enacted on the financial markets, on the Company and on the Bank. The terms and costs of these activities, or the failure of these actions to help stabilize the financial markets, asset prices, market liquidity and a continuation or worsening of current financial market and economic conditions could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and the trading price of our common stock.

Fluctuating interest rates could adversely affect our profitability.

Our profitability is dependent to a large extent upon our net interest income, which is the difference between the interest earned on loans, securities and other interest-earning assets and interest paid on deposits, borrowings, and other interest-bearing liabilities. Because of the differences in maturities and repricing characteristics of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, changes in interest rates do not produce equivalent changes in interest income earned on interest-earning assets and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Accordingly, fluctuations in interest rates could adversely affect our net interest margin, and, in turn, our profitability. We manage our interest rate risk within established guidelines and generally seek an asset and liability structure that insulates net interest income from large deviations attributable to changes in market rates. However, our interest rate risk management practices may not be effective in a highly volatile rate environment.

We face strong competition from financial services companies and other companies that offer banking services.

Our three major markets are in Oregon and Washington. The banking and financial services businesses in our market area are highly competitive and increased competition may adversely impact the level of our loans and deposits. Ultimately, we may not be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors. These competitors include national banks, foreign banks, regional banks and other community banks. We also face competition from many other types of financial institutions, including savings and loan associations, finance companies, brokerage firms, insurance companies, credit unions, mortgage banks and other financial intermediaries. In particular, our competitors include major financial companies whose greater resources may afford them a marketplace advantage by enabling them to maintain numerous locations and mount extensive promotional and advertising campaigns. Areas of competition include interest rates for loans and deposits, efforts to obtain loan and deposit customers and a range in quality of products and services provided, including new technology driven products and services. If we are unable to attract and retain banking customers, we may be unable to continue our loan growth and level of deposits.

Future acquisitions and expansion activities may disrupt our business and adversely affect our operating results.

We regularly evaluate potential acquisitions and expansion opportunities. To the extent that we grow through acquisitions, we cannot ensure that we will be able to adequately or profitably manage this growth. Acquiring other banks, branches or other assets, as well as other expansion activities, involve various risks including the risks of incorrectly assessing the credit quality of acquired assets, encountering greater than expected costs of incorporating acquired banks or branches into our Company, and being unable to profitably deploy funds acquired in an acquisition.

We may pursue additional capital in the future, which could dilute the holders of our outstanding common stock and may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

From time-to-time, particularly in the current uncertain economic environment, we may consider alternatives for raising capital when opportunities present themselves, in order to further strengthen our capital and/or better position ourselves to take advantage of identified or potential opportunities that may arise in the future. Such alternatives may include issuance and sale of common or preferred stock, trust preferred securities or borrowings by the Company, with proceeds contributed to the Bank. Any such capital raising alternatives could dilute the holders of our outstanding common stock and may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Anti-takeover provisions in our amended and restated articles of incorporation and bylaws and Oregon law could make a third party acquisition of us difficult.

Our amended and restated articles of incorporation contain provisions that could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us (even if doing so would be beneficial to our shareholders) and for holders of our common stock to receive any related takeover premium for their common stock. We are also subject to certain provisions of Oregon law that could delay, deter or prevent a change in control of us. These provisions could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock.

Dividends

The Company pays cash dividends on a quarterly basis, typically in March, June, September and December of each year. The Board of Directors considers the dividend amount quarterly and takes a broad perspective in its dividend deliberations including a review of recent operating performance, capital levels, projected capital levels, loan concentrations as a percentage of capital and growth projections. The Board also considers dividend payout ratios, dividend yield, and other financial metrics in setting the quarterly dividend. The Company declared and paid cash dividends of $0.04 per share for the year ended December 31, 2010. That compares to cash dividends of $0.25 per share paid for the year ended December 31, 2009. Regulatory authorities may prohibit the Company from paying dividends in a manner that would constitute an unsafe or unsound banking practice or would reduce the amount of its capital below that necessary to meet minimum applicable regulatory capital requirements. Current guidance from the Federal Reserve provides, among other things, that dividends per share generally should not exceed earnings per share, measured over the previous four fiscal quarters. The Company’s dividends per share did not exceed earnings per share in 2010. Future dividends will depend on sufficient earnings to support them, along with approval of the Board and appropriate bank regulatory authorities.

ITEM 7 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion is intended to provide a more comprehensive review of the Company’s operating results and financial condition than can be obtained from reading the Consolidated Financial Statements alone.

Results of Operations - Overview

For the year 2010, the Company recorded net income of $5,092, compared to a net loss of $4,879 in 2009. The increase in 2010 income from the prior year was primarily due to a reduction in exposure to construction and land development loans which led to lower provision for loan losses in 2010 as net credit losses decreased significantly. The Company’s earnings before provision for loan losses and taxes were $22,816, down 16.4% from the prior year. The decline in 2010 earnings before provision for loan losses and taxes when compared to the prior year was due to a $2,534 drop in operating revenue (defined as net interest income plus noninterest income) combined with a $1,932 increase in noninterest expense. The decrease in 2010 operating revenue was due to a $2,778 drop in net interest income, which was partially offset by a $244 increase in noninterest income. Net interest income fell in 2010 when compared to 2009 primarily due to changes in the asset mix and subsequent margin compression.

The Company recorded a net loss of $4,879 for 2009 compared to net income of $12,939 in 2008. The net loss recorded in 2009 and decline in income from the prior year were primarily due to the $36,000 provision for loan losses in 2009 associated with the deterioration of the credit quality of the loan portfolio and the weak economic conditions that significantly affected real estate values. This resulted in higher credit losses in 2009 compared to 2008. Earnings before provision for loan losses and taxes in 2009 were $27,282, up 13.8% over the prior year. Operating revenue for the year 2009 was up 9.2% over the year 2008 and was primarily driven by growth in net interest income, which accounted for 92.5% of total operating revenue in 2009. The improvement in 2009 net interest income was primarily the result of 11.3% growth in average earning assets.

Period-end assets at December 31, 2010, were $1,210,176, up $11,063 or 0.9% from December 31, 2009, asset totals. While there was little growth in total assets during the year, there was a significant change in the mix of assets. During 2010, the securities portfolio grew by $86,289, which was offset by $88,784 of contraction in the loan portfolio. The Company continued to experience strong growth in outstanding core deposits during 2010, which were up $123,852 or 16.0% over the prior year-end due to expanding existing deposit relationships and through the development of new deposit relationships. During the past two years, the Company’s core deposit base has increased $280,006.

Average assets for the year 2010 were $1,189,289, up $59,318 over last year, as growth in average securities and investments was partially offset by a decline in average loans. Average core deposits for the year 2010 were $827,082, up $123,188 or 17.5% over last year with average demand deposits showing a 20.2% increase over 2009.

During 2011, the Company believes the following factors could impact reported financial results:

§	The recent national, regional, and local recession and the continuing effect on loan demand, the credit quality of existing clients with lending relationships, and vacancy rates of commercial real estate properties, since a significant portion of our loan portfolio is secured by real estate;

A slowing real estate market, and increases in residential home inventories for sale, and the impact on residential construction lending, delinquency and default rates of existing residential construction loans in the Company’s portfolio, residential mortgage lending and refinancing activities of existing homeowners;

§	Changes and volatility in interest rates negatively impacting yields on earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities, thus negatively affecting the net interest margin and net interest income;

§	The availability of wholesale funding sources due to disruption in the financial and capital markets;

§	The ability to manage noninterest expense growth in light of anticipated increases in regulatory expenses, and expenses related to resolving problem loans; and

§	The ability to attract and retain qualified and experienced bankers in all markets.

Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial information

Management utilizes certain non-GAAP financial measures to monitor the Company’s performance. While we believe the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides additional insight into our operating performance, readers of this report are urged to review the GAAP results as presented in the Financial Statements and Supplementary Data in Item 8 below.

The Company presents a computation of tangible equity along with tangible book value and return on average tangible equity. The Company defines tangible equity as total shareholders’ equity before goodwill and core deposit intangible assets. Tangible book value is calculated as tangible equity divided by total shares outstanding. Return on average tangible equity is calculated as net income divided by average tangible equity. We believe that tangible equity and certain tangible equity ratios are meaningful measures of capital adequacy which may be used when making period-to-period and company-to-company comparisons. Tangible equity and tangible equity ratios are considered to be non-GAAP financial measures and should be viewed in conjunction with total shareholders’ equity, book value and return on average equity. The following table presents a reconciliation of total shareholders’ equity to tangible equity.

	2010			2009			2008
Total shareholders' equity	$	172,238		$	165,662		$	116,165
Subtract:
Goodwill		(22,031	)		(22,031	)		(22,031	)
Core deposit intangibles		(427	)		(650	)		(873	)
Tangible shareholders' equity (non-GAAP)	$	149,780		$	142,981		$	93,261


Book value	$	9.35		$	9.01		$	9.62
Tangible book value (non-GAAP)	$	8.13		$	7.77		$	7.72


Return on average equity		1.57	%		-3.60	%		11.57	%
Return on average tangible equity (non-GAAP)		1.81	%		-4.33	%		14.56	%

Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although we believe these non-GAAP financial measure are frequently used by stakeholders in the evaluation of a company, they have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of results as reported under GAAP.

SUMMARY OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We follow accounting standards set by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, commonly referred to as the “FASB.” The FASB sets generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) that we follow to ensure we consistently report our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. References to GAAP issued by the FASB in this report are to the “FASB Accounting Standards Codification”, sometimes referred to as the “Codification” or “ASC”. The FASB finalized the Codification effective for periods ending on or after September 15, 2009. Prior FASB Statements, Interpretations, Positions, EITF consensuses, and AICPA Statements of Position are no longer being issued by the FASB. The Codification does not change how the Company accounts for its transactions or the nature of related disclosures made. However, when referring to guidance issued by the FASB, the Company refers to topics in the ASC rather than the specific FASB statement. We have updated references to GAAP in this report to reflect the guidance in the Codification.

The SEC defines “critical accounting policies” as those that require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in future periods. Significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, in Item 8 of this report. Management believes that the following policies and those disclosed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements should be considered critical under the SEC definition:

Allowance for Loan Losses and Reserve for Unfunded Commitments

The allowance for loan losses on outstanding loans is classified as a contra-asset account offsetting outstanding loans, and the allowance for unfunded commitments is classified as an “other” liability on the balance sheet. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged against earnings. The balances of the allowance for loan losses for outstanding loans and unfunded commitments are maintained at an amount management believes will be adequate to absorb known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio and commitments to loan funds. The appropriate balance of the allowance for loan losses is determined by applying loss factors to the credit exposure from outstanding loans and unfunded loan commitments. Estimated loss factors are based on subjective measurements including management’s assessment of the internal risk classifications, changes in the nature of the loan portfolios, industry concentrations, and the impact of current local, regional, and national economic factors on the quality of the loan portfolio. Changes in these estimates and assumptions are reasonably possible and may have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, results of operations or liquidity.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

At December 31, 2010, the Company had $22,458 in goodwill and other intangible assets. In accordance with financial accounting standards, assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized, but instead are periodically tested for impairment. Management performs an impairment analysis of its goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives at least annually and has determined that there was no impairment as of December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008.

Share-based Compensation

Consistent with the provisions of FASB ASC 718, Stock Compensation, a revision to the previously issued guidance on accounting for stock options and other forms of equity-based compensation, we recognize expense for the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based forms of compensation issued to employees over the employees’ requisite service period (generally the vesting period). The requisite service period may be subject to performance conditions. The fair value of each option grant is estimated as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Management assumptions utilized at the time of grant impact the fair value of the option calculated under the Black-Scholes methodology, and ultimately, the expense that will be recognized over the life of the option. Additional information is included in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8, below.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements are discussed in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, in Item 8 of this report. None of these pronouncements are expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income

The largest component of the Company’s earnings is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income derived from earning assets, principally loans, and the interest expense associated with interest-bearing liabilities, principally deposits. The volume and mix of earning assets and funding sources, market rates of interest, demand for loans, and the availability of deposits affect net interest income.

4th Quarter 2010 Compared to 4th Quarter 2009

Two tables follow which analyze the changes in net interest income for the fourth quarter 2010 and fourth quarter 2009. Table I “Average Balance Analysis of Net Interest Income”, provides information with regard to average balances of assets and liabilities, as well as associated dollar amounts of interest income and interest expense, relevant average yields or rates, and net interest income as a percent of average earning assets. Table II “Analysis of Changes in Interest Income and Interest Expense”, shows the increase (decrease) in the dollar amount of interest income and interest expense and the differences attributable to changes in either volume or rates.

The Company’s net interest margin for the fourth quarter 2010 was 4.60% compared to 5.07% for the fourth quarter 2009. Quarterly margins in 2009 have been adjusted to remove FHLB stock from interest-earning assets. Table I shows the yield on earning assets for the fourth quarter 2010 of 5.66% was down 62 basis points from fourth quarter 2009 earning asset yields. The decline in earning asset yields was the result of: 1) a decline in yields on securities available-for-sale; 2) a decline in yields on loans resulting from interest reversals on loans placed on nonaccrual status during the quarter and interest lost on loans on nonaccrual status; and 3). a change in the mix of earning assets as average lower yielding securities represented 22% of total average earning assets in fourth quarter 2010 compared to 13% in fourth quarter 2009. A portion of the decline in loan yields was mitigated by the Company’s use of floors on variable rate loans. At December 31, 2010, interest rate floors were active on $248,276 of the Company’s variable rate loan portfolio.

Table I also shows that the rates paid on interest-bearing core deposits and interest-bearing wholesale funding did not move down as fast as the decline in earning asset yields, thus causing the net interest margin to compress by 47 basis points. The cost of interest-bearing core deposits dropped 36 basis points, while the cost of interest-bearing wholesale funding moved up 90 basis points. The total cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 15 basis points in fourth quarter 2010 when compared to fourth quarter 2009. The decline in core deposit rates was due to reductions in pricing throughout 2010 as competitive pressures abated for deposits by all financial institutions. The increase in the cost of wholesale deposits and funding was the result of extending maturities on these instruments throughout 2010 in order to mitigate the Company’s liability sensitive interest rate position.

Table I also shows the difference between the cost of interest-bearing core deposits and wholesale funding. Overall, interest-bearing core deposits in fourth quarter 2010 had a rate of 1.15% or 159 basis points lower than wholesale funding costs at 2.74%. This spread widened significantly in 2010 when compared to the same quarter last year when the cost of interest-bearing core deposits was only 33 basis points below the cost of interest-bearing wholesale funding. This widening was again the result of extending maturities on wholesale funding at a higher cost to mitigate interest rate risk, while the cost of core deposits fell. In addition, the Company significantly reduced its level of low cost short-term funding at the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco and the FHLB of Seattle that also contributed to the increase in the cost of wholesale funding in fourth quarter 2010 when compared to fourth quarter 2009.

Table II shows the changes in net interest income due to rate and volume for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2009. Interest income including loan fees for the fourth quarter 2010 decreased by $1,630 from the same period last year. Changes in the mix of earning asset volumes, specifically the reduction in higher yielding loans and increase in lower yielding securities, caused interest income to drop by $586 while lower yields on earning assets decreased interest income by $1,044. The rate/volume analysis shows that interest expense for the quarter ended December 31, 2010, decreased by $412 from last year, as changes in mix of liability volumes caused interest expense to drop by $181, while lower rates reduced interest expense by $231.

2010 Compared to 2009

Two tables follow which analyze the changes in net interest income for the years 2010, 2009 and 2008. Table III “Average Balance Analysis of Net Interest Income,” provides information with regard to average balances of assets and liabilities, as well as associated dollar amounts of interest income and interest expense, relevant average yields or rates, and net interest income as a percent of average earning assets. Table IV, “Analysis of Changes in Interest Income and Interest Expense,” shows the increase (decrease) in the dollar amount of interest income and interest expense and the differences attributable to changes in either volume or rates.

The net interest margin for the full year 2010 was 4.72% a decline of 47 basis points from the 5.19% net interest margin for the year 2009. Margins in 2009 have been adjusted to remove FHLB stock from interest-earning assets. Table III shows that earning asset yields declined by 59 basis points for the year 2010 when compared to 2009 from 6.43% to 5.84%. The decline in earning assets yields was primarily due to the following factors: 1) a decline in yields on securities available for sale; 2) a decline in yields on loans resulting from interest reversals on loans placed on nonaccrual status during the quarter and interest lost on loans on nonaccrual status; and 3) a change in the mix of earning assets as average lower yielding securities represented 18.3% of total average earning assets for the year 2010 compared to 9.3% in 2009.

Table III also shows the overall cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the year 2010 was down 7 basis points from 1.59% in 2009 to 1.52% in 2010. While the cost of interest-bearing core deposits fell by 26 basis points in 2010 from 2009, the cost of interest-bearing wholesale funding moved up 64 basis points from 1.66% in 2009 to 2.30% in 2010. Wholesale funding costs in 2010 increased over the prior year as throughout 2010, the Company extended maturities on its wholesale funding to mitigate its liability sensitive interest rate risk position. In addition wholesale funding costs increased in 2010 as the Company significantly reduced its use of low cost overnight and short-term borrowings at the FHLB of Seattle and FRB of San Francisco as evidenced by the $100,243 decline in average borrowings for 2010 when compared to 2009.

The year-to-date December 31, 2010, rate/volume analysis shows that interest income including loan fees decreased by $3,457 from last year. Higher volumes of earning assets, specifically securities, increased interest income by $1,517 and lower rates on earning assets decreased interest income by $4,974. Most of the decline in interest income from lower rates was due to the lower yield on the securities portfolio. The rate/volume analysis shows that interest expense for the year 2010 decreased by only $679 from last year. Overall, increased volumes or changes in volume mix decreased the interest expense by $149 while lower rates on interest-bearing liabilities decreased interest expense by $530.

2009 Compared to 2008

The net interest margin for the full year 2009 was 5.19%, a decline of 8 basis points from the 5.27% net interest margin reported for the year 2008. Margins in 2009 and 2008 have been adjusted to remove FHLB stock from interest-earning assets. Table III shows that earning asset yields declined by 62 basis points for the year 2009 when compared to 2008 from 7.05% to 6.43%. The decline in earning assets yields was due primarily to the 57 basis point drop in the yield on loans, which resulted from the rapidly declining interest rate environment experienced throughout 2008 and 2009 that lowered yields on the Company’s variable rate loan portfolio. The Company’s use of interest rate floors on its variable rate loan portfolio mitigated a further decline in loan yields.

Table III also shows the overall cost of interest-bearing liabilities was down 69 basis points from 2.28% in 2008 to 1.59% in 2009. This decline can be attributed to the falling rate environment during late 2008 and into 2009 plus the relatively short-maturity structure of the Company’s wholesale funding which permitted rapid refinancing of funding at much lower rates throughout the year as noted by the 127 basis point decline in the cost of interest-bearing wholesale funding from 2.93% in 2008 to 1.66% in 2009. Table III also shows that the spread between the cost of interest-bearing core deposits and interest-bearing wholesale funding narrowed significantly in 2009 when compared to 2008. Interest-bearing core deposits were 12 basis points below the cost of interest-bearing wholesale funding in 2009, while in 2008, the cost of interest-bearing core deposits was 108 basis points below the cost of interest-bearing wholesale funding.

The rate/volume analysis shows that interest income including loan fees increased by $945 from 2008 to 2009. Higher volumes of earning assets, both securities and loans, increased interest income by $6,908 and lower yields on earning assets decreased interest income by $5,963. Most of the decline in interest income from lower rates was due to the lower yield on the loan portfolio. The rate/volume analysis shows that interest expense for the year 2009 decreased by $3,823 from 2008, as higher volumes and changes in mix of deposits and wholesale funding categories caused interest expense to increase by $2,032, which was more than offset by lower rates, which decreased interest expense by $5,855. The change in mix and volumes of interest-bearing wholesale funding combined with much lower rates paid on wholesale funding were the primary drivers of lower interest expense in 2009 when compared to 2008.

Provision for Possible Loan Losses

Management provides for possible loan losses by maintaining an allowance. The level of the allowance is determined based upon judgments regarding the size and nature of the loan portfolio, historical loss experience, the financial condition of borrowers, the level of nonperforming loans, and current general economic conditions. Additions to the allowance are charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance when management believes the collection of principal is unlikely.

The provision for loan losses totaled $15,000 in 2010 compared to $36,000 in 2009. The decrease in the provision for 2010 when compared to 2009 was primarily due to a significant reduction in exposure to construction and land development loans. These loans totaled $83,455 or 9.7% of outstanding loans at December 31, 2010, down $77,877 from the $161,342 or 17.1% of outstanding loans reported at December 31, 2009. The Company’s reduced exposure to risk was further evidenced by a substantial decrease in net loan charge offs during the current year. Net loan charge offs totaled $11,797 in 2010 compared to $33,613 in 2009. The decline in net charge offs was primarily centered in construction and land development loans. Net charge offs in this category were $4,440 in 2010 compared to $20,950 in 2009.

The provision for loan losses totaled $36,000 in 2009 compared to $3,600 in 2008. The increase in the provision for 2009 when compared to 2008 was due to weak economic conditions, which significantly affected the housing market, particularly impacting construction loans, which resulted in deterioration of overall credit quality of the loan portfolio. This deterioration led to significant net loan charge offs during 2009 totaling $33,613. Of this amount, $20,950 or 62.3% were related to residential construction and land development loans.

At December 31, 2010, the Company had $46,263 in nonperforming assets, net of government guarantees, or 3.82% of total assets, compared to $36,570 or 3.05% of total assets at December 31, 2009. The schedule

below provides a more detailed breakdown of nonperforming assets by loan type at December 31, 2010, when compared to December 31, 2009:

Nonperforming loans to outstanding loans		3.73	%		3.43	%

Nonperforming assets at December 31, 2010, consist of $31,970 of nonaccrual loans (net of $1,056 in government guarantees) and $14,293 of foreclosed assets. Total nonperforming assets at December 31, 2010, were up $9,693 over nonperforming assets at December 31, 2009. While the Company was able to resolve many of its problem real estate construction loans as evidenced by the $17,737 decline in nonperforming loans in this category, there was a significant increase in problem loans totaling $15,245 in permanent real estate loans, primarily related to permanent residential 1-4 family loans and non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans. Other real estate owned at December 31, 2010, consisted of 18 properties. The most significant other real estate properties at December 31, 2010, were a residential land development property valued at $5,772, a commercial land development loan valued at $1,013, and a commercial construction property valued at $4,389.

While nonperforming assets showed a year-over-year increase of $9,693, the Company made significant progress during the fourth quarter 2010 in lowering nonperforming assets. On a linked-quarter basis, nonperforming assets declined $11,699 at December 31, 2010, when compared to the end of the third quarter 2010. The reduction in fourth quarter 2010 nonperforming assets was primarily due to the resolution of three large problem credits.

The allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2010, was $16,570 (1.93% of gross outstanding loans, excluding loans held-for-sale) compared to $13,367 (1.42% of loans) and $10,980 (1.15% of loans) at years ended 2009 and 2008, respectively. At December 31, 2010, the Company has also reserved $101 for possible losses on unfunded loan commitments, which is classified in other liabilities. The 2010 ending allowance includes $86 in specific allowance for $31,970 in nonperforming loans (net of government guarantees). At December 31, 2009, the Company had $32,346 in nonperforming loans (net of government guarantees) with a specific allowance of $6 assigned.

While the Company saw some positive trends in fourth quarter 2010 with its resolution of problem assets and stabilization in credit quality, management cannot predict the level of the provision for loan losses, the level of the allowance for loans losses, nor the level of nonperforming assets in future quarters as a result of uncertain economic conditions. At December 31, 2010, and as shown in this document in Item 8, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 3, the Company’s unallocated reserves were $1,194 or 7.2% of the total allowance for loan losses at year-end. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2010, is adequate and this level of unallocated reserves was prudent in light of the economic conditions and uncertainty that exists in the Northwest markets that the Company serves.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income is derived from sources other than fees and interest on earning assets. The Company’s primary sources of noninterest income are service charge fees on deposit accounts, merchant bankcard activity, and business credit card interchange, which is classified in the other noninterest income category.

2010 Compared to 2009

Noninterest income for the year 2010 was $4,649, up $244 or 6% over noninterest income of $4,405 reported for the full year 2009. Excluding the $226 OTTI recognized during the second quarter 2010, noninterest income would have been up $470 over last year. For the year 2010, other fee income, which consists primarily of merchant bankcard fees, was up $309 or 26% as sales transaction volumes rose significantly in 2010 when compared to last year. Total transaction volume in 2010 was nearly $205,000 compared to approximately $173,000 in 2009. The other income category was up $269 or 27% due to increased business credit card interchange, one-time fee income of $164 related to other real estate rental income and a fee related to the disposition of problem loans. In addition, during 2010, the Company recorded a $45 gain on sale of securities. The increase in these categories was offset by declines in account service charges of $139 and mortgage banking revenues of $36. Account service charges were down due to lower volumes of not sufficient funds (“NSF”) and overdraft (“OD”) fees and a decline in hard dollar fee income from analyzed business accounts. The decline in NSF/OD fees reflects continued trends of lower transaction volumes. The decline in hard dollar fee income on analyzed accounts was the result of higher balances maintained by clients and a higher earnings credit during 2010, both of which contributed to lower levels of fees collected on analyzed accounts. The decline in mortgage revenues of $36 was related to a much lower level of new originations as home sales volumes and refinancing opportunities continued to drop due to the decline in home values.

2009 Compared to 2008

Noninterest income in 2009 was $4,405, up $136 or 3% from the $4,269 reported for the year 2008. The increase in 2009 noninterest income when compared to 2008 was primarily attributable to a $175 increase in service charges on deposit accounts and a $146 increase in mortgage banking revenues. Service charges on deposit accounts increased due to a lower earnings credit rate, which increased fees on analyzed business accounts, while mortgage banking revenues were up in 2009 over 2008 due to the low interest rate environment combined with federal tax rebates available to first-time home buyers both of which spurred higher levels of mortgage loan originations in 2009 when compared to 2008. These increases were partially offset by declines in bankcard processing fee income and the other interest income category. Bankcard processing fee income of $1,196 was down $72 from last year due to lower volumes of transactions due to economic conditions. The decline of $100 in the other interest income category was primarily the result of a one-time gain of approximately $70 recorded during 2008 on disposal of equipment at the Company’s Bellevue office, which was damaged during a falling crane incident.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense represents all expenses other than the provision for loan losses and interest costs associated with deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities. It incorporates personnel, premises and equipment, data processing and other operating expenses.

2010 Compared to 2009

For the year 2010 noninterest expense was $33,094, up $1,932 or 6% from the year 2009. All categories of expense were up over the prior year with the exception of business development costs, which were down $228 in 2010 when compared to last year. Total personnel expenses were up by $666, primarily due to increases in base salaries, equity-based and incentive compensation, group insurance, and 401k contributions totaling approximately $1,051. Increases in these categories were partially offset by an increase in loan origination costs of $479, which are booked as a credit against salary expenses. Incentive compensation and the 401k contributions are performance-based payments and were significantly lower in 2009 as a result of the net loss reported for the year. Equity-based compensation increased as a result of accruals for cash-settled stock appreciation rights. Group insurance expense in 2009 was also significantly lower than the current year as actual claims experience was lower than projected resulting in reversals of accruals for the Company’s self-insured medical plan during 2009. In addition to personnel expense, FDIC assessments, other real estate expense and the other expense category also showed significant increases, up $216, $496 and $457 respectively. The increase in FDIC assessments was the result of increased premiums combined with higher levels of deposits. When the $510 expense in 2009 for the special assessment is excluded, FDIC assessments would have been up $726 in 2010 over 2009. The increase in other real estate expense was primarily due to valuation write downs taken throughout 2010 as property values continued to decline. The increase in the other expense category was primarily due to the increase in legal fees and repossession and collection costs associated with the resolution of problem loans.

2009 Compared to 2008

Noninterest expense for the year 2009 was $31,162, up $1,600 or 5% over the $29,562 reported for the year 2008. The increase in noninterest expense for the year 2009 over 2008 was primarily attributable to a $1,474 increase in FDIC insurance assessment, a $698 increase in other real estate expense, and a $693 increase in the other expense category. The increase in FDIC insurance assessment resulted from growth in core deposits, increase premium rates during the year 2009, and a $510 special assessment made during the second quarter 2009. Other real estate expense increased in 2009 over 2008 primarily due to $598 in valuation write downs that occurred during 2009. The growth in the other expense category was mostly attributable to a $381 increase in legal fees primarily related to legal work performed on problem loans during 2009. The increase in these expenses was partially offset by a $1,098 decline in personnel expense in 2009 when compared to 2008. The decline in personnel expense was due to reductions in accruals for incentive compensation, 401k accruals, and group insurance expense on the Company’s self-insured medical plan. Incentive and 401k accruals declined due to the significant drop in overall corporate financial performance, while group insurance expense declined due to a lower claims experience.

BALANCE SHEET

Securities Available-for-sale

At December 31, 2010, the Company had $253,907 in securities classified as available-for-sale. At December 31, 2010, $24,913 of these securities were pledged as collateral for FHLB of Seattle borrowings, public deposits in Oregon and Washington, and to the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco to support balances in its Treasury, Tax and Loan deposit account.

At December 31, 2010, the securities available-for-sale totaled $253,907, up $86,289 over December 31, 2009. At December 31, 2010, the portfolio had an unrealized taxable gain of $1,956 compared to an unrealized taxable loss of $432 at December 31, 2009. During 2010, the Company purchased $134,485 in new securities, while receiving $47,734 in cash flow from maturities and pay downs on mortgage-back securities. Purchases during the year 2010 were high-quality agency mortgage-backed securities, many of which were zero percent risk-weighted, bullet agencies, and longer-term taxable and tax-exempt municipals. These purchases were part of a three-pronged strategy to 1) add liquidity to the asset side of the balance sheet; 2) provide earnings in light of declining loan volumes and growth in core deposits; and 3) hedge the balance sheet against a rates-up scenario due to the Company’s liability sensitive position. However, due to the prospect of a low interest rate environment for an extended period of time, the Company expanded purchases of longer-term municipals to take advantage of the steep yield curve and provide additional income. At December 31, 2010, the portfolio had an average life of 3.8 years and duration of 3.3 years. That compares to an average life and duration of 2.6 years and 2.3 years, respectively at December 31, 2009. While a portion of the increase in average life and duration were related to purchases of longer-term municipals, the increase was also influenced by the extension of average life in the agency mortgage-backed securities portfolio. The extension of the average life of the agency mortgage-backed portion of the portfolio was related to the rise in long-term interest rates that occurred during the latter half of the fourth quarter 2010, which is expected to slow refinancing activity. Also, despite the increase in the average life, the portfolio is structured to spin off sufficient cash flow to allow reinvestment at higher rates should interest rates move up further. In a rates unchanged environment, approximately $58,000 in cash is anticipated during 2011. Going forward, the portfolio is expected to increase moderately and purchases will be dependent upon core deposit growth, loan growth, and the Company’s interest rate risk position.

At year-end 2010, $20,061 or 7.9% of the total securities portfolio was composed of private-label mortgage-backed securities. This portfolio consists of 34 individual securities. During the second quarter 2010, management determined it was prudent to recognize OTTI on five of its private-label mortgage-backed securities as based on analysis, it was determined that is was unlikely the full amount of the Company’s investment would be collected on these securities. The OTTI resulted in a principal write down of $226. Management reviews monthly all available information, including current and projected default rates and current and projected loss severities, related to the collectability of its potentially impaired investment securities and determined no additional OTTI was required during the remainder of 2010. However, recognition of additional OTTI on these five securities and other securities in the private-label mortgage-backed portion of the portfolio is possible in future quarters depending upon economic conditions, default rates on home mortgages, loss severities on foreclosed homes, unemployment levels, and home values.

In management’s opinion, the remaining securities in the portfolio in an unrealized loss position are considered only temporarily impaired. The Company has no intent, nor is it more likely than not, that it will be required to sell its impaired securities before their recovery. The impairment is due to changes in market interest rates or the widening of market spreads subsequent to the initial purchase of the securities, and not due to concerns regarding the underlying credit of the issuers or the underlying collateral. The decline in value of these securities has resulted from current economic conditions. Although yields on these securities may be below market rates during the period, no loss of principal is expected.

Loans

At December 31, 2010, outstanding loans, net of deferred loan fees and excluding loans held for sale, were $856,385, down $87,979 from outstanding loans of $944,364 at December 31, 2009. A summary of outstanding loans by market for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, follows:

Loans					2010 vs. 2009
	Balance		Balance		$ Increase			% Increase
	December 31, 2010		December 31, 2009		(Decrease)			(Decrease)
Eugene Market	$	256,979	$	259,435	$	(2,456	)		-0.9	%
Portland Market		404,965		435,304		(30,339	)		-7.0	%
Seattle Market		194,441		249,625		(55,184	)		-22.1	%
Total	$	856,385	$	944,364	$	(87,979	)		-30.0	%

All three of the Company’s primary markets showed a decline in outstanding loans at December 31, 2010, when compared to December 31, 2009. The decrease in Portland and Seattle market loans was most pronounced with Portland market loans declining 7.0% and Seattle market loans down 22.1%. The decline in loans in these markets was primarily related to a planned contraction in residential and commercial construction loans in these two markets. A portion of the contraction in these two markets was offset by increased lending in permanent commercial real estate loans and commercial and industrial loans, primarily related to new loans in the health care industry, including dental related loans. The Eugene market on the other hand saw much less contraction in outstanding loans from the prior year as this market was not as exposed to real estate lending, thus new production nearly offset contraction.

Despite the 2010 contraction in the loan portfolio, the Company experienced improved lending activity during the year when compared to the prior year with $325,727 in loan production, including both new and renewed loans, of which $138,821 were new loans. The Company continued to expand outstanding loans to dental professionals during the year 2010 well. Outstanding loans to dental professionals at December 31, 2010, totaled $177,229 compared to $158,433 at December 31, 2009. The growth in this portfolio was reported net of approximately $6,200 of dental loans participated to another financial institution during the second quarter 2010. In addition to growth in the dental industry, growth was also experienced in the wider health care field with loans to physicians, surgeons, optometrists, family practitioners, and medical specialists.

Detailed credit quality data can be found in Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, in Item 8 below. Additionally, more detailed information on the loan portfolio, including outstanding loans by type, maturity structure, and repricing characteristics of the portfolio, can be found in the statistical information section of Item 1, Business and in Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 below.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

At December 31, 2010, the Company had a recorded balance of $22,031 in goodwill from the November 30, 2005 acquisition of NWB Financial Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary Northwest Business Bank (“NWBF”). In addition, at December 31, 2010, the Company had $427 core deposit intangible assets resulting from the acquisition of NWBF. The core deposit intangible was determined to have an expected life of approximately seven years and is being amortized through November 2012 using the straight-line method. During 2010, the Company amortized $223 of the core deposit intangible. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Company does not amortize goodwill or other intangible assets with indefinite lives, but instead periodically tests these assets for impairment. Management performed an impairment analysis at December 31, 2010, and determined there was no impairment of the goodwill at the time of the analysis.

Deferred Tax Assets

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. At December 31, 2010, the Company had a net deferred tax asset of $10,188. Deferred tax assets are reviewed for recoverability and valuation allowances are provided, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefit, or that future deductibility is uncertain. In light of the Company’s historical performance, management anticipates that the deferred tax assets will be fully utilized to offset future income taxes and that no valuation allowance is required. Additional disclosures regarding the components of the net deferred tax asset are included in Note 11 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this document.

Deposits

Outstanding deposits at December 31, 2010, were $958,959, an increase of $131,041 over outstanding deposits of $827,918 at December 31, 2009. Core deposits, which are defined by the Company as demand, interest checking, money market, savings, and local time deposits, including local time deposits in excess of $100, were $895,838, up $123,852 from outstanding core deposits of $771,986 at December 31, 2009. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, core deposits represented 93% of total deposits in both years. A summary of outstanding deposits by market for the years 2010 and 2009 follows:

Deposits					2010 vs. 2009
	Balance		Balance		$ Increase		% Increase
	December 31, 2010		December 31, 2009		(Decrease)		(Decrease)
Eugene Market core deposits	$	538,011	$	492,012	$	45,999		9.3	%
Portland Market core deposits		239,991		165,716		74,275		44.8	%
Seattle Market core deposits		117,836		114,258		3,578		3.1	%
Total core deposits		895,838		771,986		123,852		16.0	%
Other deposits		63,121		55,932		7,189		12.9	%
Total	$	958,959	$	827,918	$	131,041		15.8	%

All three of the Company’s primary markets showed an increase in deposits, with the Portland market exhibiting the largest increase. All three markets were successful in acquiring new deposit relationships and deepening existing relationships with existing clients. Because of its strategic focus on business banking and banking for not-for-profits, the Company attracts a number of large depositors that account for a significant portion of the core deposit base. At December 31, 2010, large depositors, generally defined as relationships with $1,000 or more in deposits, accounted for $320,468 of the Company’s total core deposit base and represented 35.8% of outstanding core deposits. For more information on the Company’s large depositors and management of these relationships, see the Liquidity Section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in this document. Additional information on deposits may also be found in Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this document.

Junior Subordinated Debentures

The Company had $8,248 in junior subordinated debentures at December 31, 2010, which were issued in conjunction with the 2005 acquisition of NWBF and had an interest rate of 6.265% that was fixed through January 2011. In January 2011, the rate on the junior subordinated debentures changed to three-month LIBOR plus 135 basis points. The current rate on junior subordinated debentures is 1.65%. As of December 31, 2010, the entire balance of the junior subordinated debentures qualified as Tier 1 capital under regulatory capital purposes. Additional information regarding the terms of the junior subordinated debentures, including maturity/repricing dates and interest rate, is included in Note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 below.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

Capital is the shareholders’ investment in the Company. Capital grows through the retention of earnings and the issuance of new stock whether through stock offerings or through the exercise of stock options. Capital formation allows the Company to grow assets and provides flexibility in times of adversity.

Shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2010, was $172,238, an increase of $6,576 over December 31, 2009. The increase in shareholders’ equity during 2010 was the result of an increase in retained earnings combined with an increase in accumulated comprehensive income.

The Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC have in place guidelines for risk-based capital requirements applicable to U.S. bank holding companies and banks. These risk-based capital guidelines take into consideration risk factors, as defined by regulation, associated with various categories of assets, both on and off-balance sheet. Under the guidelines, capital strength is measured in three ways: first by measuring Tier 1 capital to leverage assets, followed by capital measurement in two tiers, which are used in conjunction with risk-adjusted assets to determine the risk-based capital ratios. These guidelines require a minimum of 4% Tier 1 capital to leverage assets, 4% Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and 8% total capital to risk-weighted assets. In order to be classified as well-capitalized, the highest capital rating, by the Federal Reserve and FDIC, these three ratios must be in excess of 5.00%, 6.00% and 10.00%, respectively. The Company’s leverage capital ratio, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, and Total risk-based capital ratio were 13.38%, 15.86% and 17.10%, respectively at December 31, 2010, all ratios being well above the minimum well-capitalized designation. At December 31, 2010, the Bank’s leverage capital ratio, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, and Total risk-based capital ratio were 12.58%, 14.92% and 16.16%, also all well over the minimum well-capitalized designation by the FDIC.

Subsequent to the end of the year, the Board of Directors at its February 15, 2011, meeting, approved a dividend of $0.01 per share to be paid on March 15, 2011. The Company has sufficient liquidity to maintain this level of dividend throughout 2011 if approved by regulators and would not require any dividend from the Bank to the Company in support of this level of cash dividend to shareholders.

The Company projects that earnings retention in 2011 and existing capital will be sufficient to fund anticipated organic asset growth while maintaining a well-capitalized designation from all regulatory agencies.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS AND COMMITMENTS

In the normal course of business, the Company commits to extensions of credit and issues letters of credit. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments to lend funds and conditional obligations as it does for other credit products. In the event of nonperformance by the customer, the Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of the instruments. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established by the contract. Since some commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. At December 31, 2010, the Company had $104,813 in commitments to extend credit.

Letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. At December 31, 2010, the Company had $1,493 in letters of credit and financial guarantees written.

The Company has certain other financial commitments. These future financial commitments at December 31, 2010, are outlined below:

Contractual Obligations
(dollars in thousands)	Total		Less than One Year		1 - 3 Years		3 - 5 Years		More than 5 Years

	$	231,667	$	126,798	$	56,554	$	27,370	$	20,945

LIQUIDITY AND CASH FLOWS

Liquidity is the term used to define the Company’s ability to meet its financial commitments. The Company maintains sufficient liquidity to ensure funds are available for both lending needs and the withdrawal of deposit funds. The Company derives liquidity through core deposit growth, maturity of investment securities and loan payments. Core deposits include demand, interest checking, money market, savings and local time deposits including local non-public time deposits in excess of $100. Additional liquidity and funding sources are provided through the sale of loans, sales of securities, access to national CD markets, and both secured and unsecured borrowings. The Company uses a number of measurements to monitor its liquidity position on a daily, weekly and monthly basis, which includes its ability to meet both short-term and long-term obligations, and requires the Company to maintain a certain amount of liquidity on the asset side of its balance sheet. The Company also prepares quarterly projections of its liquidity position 30 days, 90 days, 180 days and 1 year into the future. In addition, the Company prepares a Liquidity Contingency Plan at least semi-annually that is strategic in nature and forward-looking to test the ability of the Company to fund a liquidity shortfall arising from various events. The Liquidity Contingency Plan is presented and reviewed by the Company’s Asset and Liability Committee.

Core deposits at December 31, 2010, were $895,838 and represented 93% of total deposits. During 2010, the Company experienced strong growth in its core deposit base, which increased $123,852 or 16% over outstanding core deposits at December 31, 2009. Growth in core deposits was strong in all three of the Company’s primary markets. Since outstanding loans continued to decline during 2010, the Company used the growth in core deposits to pay down its wholesale funding and fund $86,289 of growth in its securities portfolio. At December 31, 2010, the Company’s securities portfolio totaled $253,907 and represented 21% of total assets. At December 31, 2010, $24,913 of the securities portfolio was pledged to support public deposits and a portion of the Company’s secured borrowing line at the FHLB leaving $228,994 of the securities portfolio unencumbered and available for sale. In addition, at December 31, 2010, the Company had $40,649 of government guaranteed loans that could be sold in the secondary market at a premium that also supported the Company’s liquidity position.

Due to its strategic focus to market to specific segments, the Company has been successful in developing deposit relationships with several large clients, which are generally defined as deposit relationships of $1,000 or more, which are closely monitored by management and Company officers. At December 31, 2010, 34 large deposit relationships with the Company account for $320,468 or 35.8% of total outstanding core deposits. The single largest client represented 5.9% of outstanding core deposits at December 31, 2010. The loss of this deposit relationship or other large deposit relationships could cause an adverse effect on short-term liquidity. During 2009, the Company implemented a 10-point risk-rating system to evaluate each of its large depositors in order to assist management in its daily monitoring of the volatility of this portion of its core deposit base. The risk-rating system attempts to determine the stability of the deposits of each large depositor, evaluating among other things the length of time the depositor has been with the Company and the likelihood of loss of individual large depositor relationships. Company management and officers maintain close relationships and hold regular meetings with its large depositors to assist in management of these relationships. The Company expects to maintain these relationships and believes it has sufficient sources of liquidity to mitigate the loss of one or more of these clients and regularly tests its ability to mitigate the loss of multiple large depositor relationships in its Liquidity Contingency Plan.

At December 31, 2010, the Company had secured borrowing lines with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle (“FHLB”) and the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (“FRB”), along with unsecured borrowing lines with various correspondent banks totaling $345,187. The Company’s secured lines with the FHLB and FRB were limited by the amount of collateral pledged. At December 31, 2010, the Company had pledged $152,237 in discounted collateral value in commercial real estate loans, first and second lien single-family residential loans, multi-family loans, and securities to the FHLB. Additionally, certain commercial and commercial real estate loans with a discounted value of $104,950 were pledged to the FRB under the Company’s Borrower-In-Custody program. The Company’s unsecured correspondent bank lines were $88,000. At December 31, 2010, the Company had $67,000 in borrowings outstanding from the FHLB, $0 outstanding with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, and $0 outstanding on its overnight correspondent bank lines, leaving a total of $278,187 available on it secured and unsecured borrowing lines.

As disclosed in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in Item 8 of this report, net cash provided by operating activities was $28,366 during 2010. The difference between cash provided by operating activities and net income largely consisted of non-cash items including a $15,000 provision for loan losses. Net cash of $24,078 was used in investing activities, consisting principally of $134,485 in purchases of investment securities which was partially offset by net loan principal collections of $62,755 and proceeds from investment securities of $47,734. Cash provided by financing activities was $4,433 and primarily consisted of an increase in deposits of $131,041 which was partially offset by a net decrease of $126,025 in FHLB and other borrowings.

INFLATION

Substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the Company are monetary. Therefore, inflation has a less significant impact on the Company than does fluctuation in market interest rates. Inflation can lead to accelerated growth in noninterest expenses, which impacts net earnings. During the last two years, inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price Index, has not changed significantly. The effects of this inflation have not had a material impact on the Company.

ITEM 7A Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company’s results of operations are largely dependent upon its ability to manage market risks. Changes in interest rates can have a significant effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Although permitted by its funds management policy, the Company does not presently use derivatives such as forward and futures contracts, options or interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk. Other types of market risk such as foreign currency exchange rate risk and commodity price risk do not arise in the normal course of the Company’s business activities.

Interest rate risk generally arises when the maturity or repricing structure of the Company’s assets and liabilities differ significantly. Asset and liability management, which among other things addresses such risk, is the process of developing, testing and implementing strategies that seek to maximize net interest income while maintaining sufficient liquidity. This process includes monitoring contractual maturity and prepayment expectations together with expected repricing of assets and liabilities under different interest rate scenarios. Generally, the Company seeks a structure that insulates net interest income from large deviations attributable to changes in market rates.

Interest rate risk is managed through the monitoring of the Company’s balance sheet by subjecting various asset and liability categories to interest rate shocks and gradual interest rate movements over a one-year period of time. Interest rate shocks use an instantaneous adjustment in market rates of large magnitudes on a static balance sheet to determine the effect such a change in interest rates would have on the Company’s net interest income and capital for the succeeding twelve-month period. Such an extreme change in interest rates and the assumption that management would take no steps to restructure the balance sheet does limit the usefulness of this type of analysis. This type of analysis tends to provide a best-case or worst-case scenario. In addition to the interest rate shock analysis, the company also prepares a three-year forecast of the balance sheet and income statement using a flat rate scenario i.e. rates unchanged and a most-likely rate scenario where rates are projected to change based on management’s analysis of expected economic conditions and interest rate environment. This analysis takes into account growth in loans and deposits and management strategies that could be employed to maximize the net interest margin and net interest income.

The Company utilizes in-house asset/liability modeling software, ProfitStar, to determine the effect changes in interest rates have on net interest income. Interest rate shock scenarios are modeled in a parallel shift of the yield curve in 100 basis point increments (plus or minus) in the federal funds rate. The Company shocks the balance sheet at one, two and three years into the future to provide management with both short-term and long-term interest rate risk information. Although certain assets and liabilities may have similar repricing characteristics, they may not react correspondingly to changes in market interest rates. In the event of a change in interest rates, prepayment of loans and early withdrawal of time deposits would likely deviate from those previously assumed. Increases in market rates may also affect the ability of certain borrowers to make scheduled principal payments.

The model attempts to account for such limitations by imposing weights on the differences between repricing assets and repricing liabilities within each time segment. These weights are based on the ratio between the amount of rate change of each category of asset or liability and the amount of change in the federal funds rate. Certain non-maturing liabilities such as checking accounts and money market deposit accounts are allocated among the various repricing time segments to meet local competitive conditions and management’s strategies.

At December 31, 2010, the Company was liability sensitive, meaning that in a rising rate environment, the net interest margin and net interest income would decline. The Company’s interest rate risk position was primarily due to three factors: 1) active floors on $248,276 of variable rate loans; 2) a proportional change in the Company’s loan mix as a result of reducing its exposure to certain real estate construction loans, which are typically prime-based variable rate loans; and 3) an increase in the average life of the securities portfolio as a result of purchases of longer-term taxable and tax-exempt municipals and extension of the life of agency mortgage-back securities due to rising long-term rates. Also contributing to the liability sensitive position is the large percentage of the Company’s core deposit based in the form of money market, NOW accounts and savings accounts may be subject to immediate repricing if market interest rates move up. Management took steps during 2010 to mitigate the interest rate risk in a rising rate scenario, by extending the maturities of its liabilities through refinancing a portion of it borrowings into long-term FHLB advances and longer-term callable brokered CDs.

The following table shows the estimated impact on net interest income at one year of interest rate changes plus 400 basis points and minus 200 basis points in 100 basis point increments. The base figure of $51,261 used in the analysis represents the actual net interest income for the year 2010. Due to the various assumptions used for this modeling and potential balance sheet strategies management may implement to mitigate interest rate risk, no assurance can be given that projections will reflect actual results.

ITEM 8 Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

Pacific Continental Corporation and Subsidiaries

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Pacific Continental Corporation and Subsidiaries (Company) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010. We also have audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statements presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risks. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and Directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Pacific Continental Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, Pacific Continental Corporation and Subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010 based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

Pacific Continental Corporation and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

In preparing these financial statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to the balance sheet date for potential recognition or disclosure. All dollar amounts in the following notes are expressed in thousands, except per share data.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Principles of Consolidation – The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pacific Continental Corporation (the “Company”), a bank holding company, and its wholly owned subsidiary, Pacific Continental Bank (the “Bank”) and the Bank’s wholly owned subsidiaries, PCB Service Corporation (which owns and operates bank-related real estate but is currently inactive) and PCB Loan Services Corporation (which owns and operates certain repossessed or foreclosed collateral but is currently inactive). The Bank provides commercial banking, financing, mortgage lending and other services through fourteen offices located in Western Oregon and Western Washington. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In November 2005, the Company formed a wholly owned Delaware statutory business trust subsidiary, Pacific Continental Corporation Capital Trust (the “Trust”) which issued $8,248 of guaranteed undivided beneficial interests in the Pacific Continental’s Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures (“Trust Preferred Securities”). Pacific Continental has not consolidated the accounts of the Trust in its consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals. As a result, the junior subordinated debentures issued by Pacific Continental to the issuer trust, totaling $8,248 are reflected on Pacific Continental’s consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2010, under the caption, “Junior Subordinated Debentures.” Pacific Continental also recognized its $248 investment in the Trust, which is recorded among “Other Assets” in its consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2010.

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimations made by management involve fair value calculations pertaining to financial assets and liabilities, the calculation of the allowance for loan losses, and the impairment assessment for goodwill.

Cash and Cash Equivalents – For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from or deposited with banks, interest-bearing balances due from banks, and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are sold for one-day periods.

The Company is required to maintain certain reserves with the Federal Reserve Bank as defined by regulation. Such reserves totaling $1,382 and $2,991 were maintained within the Company’s cash balances at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Securities Available-for-Sale – Securities available-for-sale are held for indefinite periods of time and may be sold in response to movements in market interest rates, changes in the maturity or mix of Company assets and liabilities or demand for liquidity. Management determines the appropriate classification of securities at the time of purchase. The Company classified all of its securities as available-for-sale throughout 2010 and 2009.

Securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at estimated fair value based on available market prices. Net unrealized gains and losses are included in other comprehensive income or loss on an after-tax basis. Impaired securities are assessed quarterly for the presence of other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”). OTTI is considered to have occurred, (1) if we intend to sell the security, (2) if it is “more likely than not” we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, or (3) the present value of expected cash flows is not sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis. The “more likely than not” criteria is a lower threshold than the “probable” criteria used under previous guidance.

When OTTI is identified, the amount of the impairment is bifurcated into two components: the amount representing credit loss and the amount related to all other factors. The amount representing credit loss is recognized against earnings as a realized loss and the amount representing all other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income as an unrealized loss. Gains and losses on the sale of available-for-sale securities are determined using the specific-identification method. Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities. Interest income on securities available-for-sale is included in income using the level yield method.

Loans Held for Sale and Mortgage Banking Activities – The Company originates residential mortgage loans for resale in the secondary market. Sales are without recourse and the Company generally does not retain mortgage servicing rights. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market. Market value is determined on an aggregate loan basis.

Loans and Income Recognition – Loans are stated at the amount of unpaid principal net of loan premiums or discounts for purchased loans, net deferred loan origination fees, discounts associated with retained portions of loans sold, and an allowance for loan losses. Interest on loans is calculated using the simple-interest method on daily balances of the principal amount outstanding. Loan origination fees, net of origination costs and discounts, are amortized over the lives of the loans as adjustments to yield.

Nonaccrual Loans

Accrual of interest is discontinued on contractually delinquent loans when management believes, after considering economic and business conditions and collection efforts that the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of principal or interest is doubtful. At a minimum, loans that are past due as to maturity or payment of principal or interest by 90 days or more are placed on nonaccrual status, unless such loans are well-secured and in the process of collection. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received satisfying all delinquent principal and interest amounts, and the prospects for future payments in accordance with the loan agreement appear relatively certain. In accordance with GAAP, payments received on nonaccrual loans are applied to the principal balance and no interest income is recognized.

Allowance for Loan Loss Methodology

Management provides for possible loan losses by maintaining an allowance. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance when management believes the collection of principal or interest is unlikely. The allowance is an amount that management considers adequate to absorb possible losses on existing loans based on its evaluation of the collectability of those loans and prior loss experience. Management’s evaluations take into consideration such factors as changes in the size and nature of the loan portfolio, the overall portfolio quality, the financial condition of borrowers, the level of nonperforming loans, the Company’s historical loss experience, the estimated value of underlying collateral, and current economic conditions that may affect the borrower’s ability to pay. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant subsequent revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance consists of general, specific and unallocated components. The general component covers all loans not specifically identified for impairment testing. The specific component relates to loans that are individually assessed for impairment. The combined general and specific components of the allowance constitute the Company’s allocated allowance for loan losses. An unallocated allowance may be maintained to provide for credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio that may not have been contemplated in the general risk factors or the specific allowance analysis.

The Company performs regular credit reviews of the loan portfolio to determine the credit quality of the portfolio and the Company’s adherence to underwriting standards. When loans are originated, they are assigned a risk rating that is reassessed periodically during the terms of the loans through the credit review process. The risk rating categories constitute a primary factor in determining an appropriate amount for the general allowance for loan losses. The general allowance is calculated by applying risk factors to pools of outstanding loans. Risk factors are assigned based on management’s evaluation of the losses inherent within each identified loan category. Loan categories with greater risk of loss are therefore assigned a higher risk factor. The Company’s ALCO Committee and Board of Directors are responsible for, among other things, regularly reviewing the allowance for loan loss methodology, including loss factors, and ensuring that it is designed and applied in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Regular credit reviews of the portfolio are performed to identify loans that are considered potentially impaired. Potentially impaired loans are referred to the ALCO Committee which reviews loans recommended for impairment. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, the Company is unlikely to collect all principal and interest due according to the terms of the loan agreement. When a loan is deemed to be impaired, the amount of the impairment is measured using discounted cash flows, except when the sole remaining source of the repayment is the liquidation of the collateral. In these cases, the current fair value of the collateral, less selling costs is used. Impairment is recognized as a specific component within the allowance for loan losses if the value of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan. When the amount of the impairment represents a confirmed loss, it is charged off against the allowance for loan losses. Loans specifically reviewed for impairment are excluded from the general allowance calculation to prevent double-counting the loss exposure. The Company’s ALCO Committee reviews loans recommended for impaired status and those recommended to be removed from impaired status. The Company’s ALCO Committee and Board provide oversight of the allowance for loan losses process and review and approve the allowance methodology on a quarterly basis.

There have been no significant changes to the Company’s loan loss allowance methodology or policies in the periods presented.

Charge off Methodology

When it becomes evident that a loan has a probable loss and is deemed uncollectable, regardless of delinquent status, the loan is charged off. A partial charge-off will occur to the extent of the portion of the loan that is not well secured and is in the process of collection. Additionally, a partial charge-off will occur to the extent of the portion of the loan that is not guaranteed by a federal or state government agency and is in the process of collection. In circumstances whereby it is evident that a government guarantee will not be honored, the loan will be charged-off to the extent of the portion of the loan/lease that is not well secured. Commercial overdrafts will be charged-off within the month the delinquent checking account becomes 90 days delinquent.

Troubled Debt Restructuring

Loans are reported as a troubled debt restructuring when the Company grants a concession to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties that it would not otherwise consider. Examples of such concessions include a reduction in the loan rate, forgiveness of principal or accrued interest, extending the maturity date or providing a lower interest rate than would be normally available for a transaction of similar risk. The Company will undertake a restructuring only when it occurs in ways which improve the likelihood that the credit will be repaid in full under the modified terms and in accordance with a reasonable repayment schedule.

Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposure – A reserve for unfunded commitments is maintained at a level that, in the opinion of management, is adequate to absorb probable losses associated with the Company’s commitment to lend funds under existing agreements such as letters or lines of credit. Management determines the adequacy of the reserve for unfunded commitments based upon reviews of individual credit facilities, current economic conditions, the risk characteristics of the various categories of commitments and other relevant factors. These factors include the quality of the current loan portfolio; the trend in the loan portfolio’s risk ratings; current economic conditions; loan concentrations; loan growth rates; past-due and non-performing trends; evaluation of specific loss estimates for all significant problem loans; historical charge-off and recovery experience; and other pertinent information. The reserve is based on estimates, and ultimate losses may vary from the current estimates. These estimates are evaluated on a regular basis and, as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the periods in which they become known. Draws on unfunded commitments that are considered uncollectible at the time funds are advanced are charged to the allowance. Provisions for unfunded commitment losses and recoveries on loans commitments previously charged-off are added to the reserve for unfunded commitments, which is included in the Other Liabilities section of the consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2010, the reserve for unfunded loan commitments totaled $101, compared to $246 at December 31, 2009.

Foreclosed Assets – Assets acquired through foreclosure, or deeds in lieu of foreclosure, are initially recorded at fair value, less the estimated cost of disposal, at the date of foreclosure. Any excess of the loan’s balance over the fair value of the foreclosed collateral is charged to the allowance for loan losses.

Improvements to foreclosed assets are capitalized to the extent that the improvements increase the fair value of the assets. Expenditures for routine maintenance and repairs of foreclosed assets are charged to expense as incurred. Management performs periodic valuations of foreclosed assets and may adjust the values to the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less the estimated costs to sell. Write downs to net realizable value, if any, and disposition gains or losses are included in noninterest income or expense.

Federal Home Loan Bank Stock – The investment in Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) stock is carried at par value, which approximates its fair value. As a member of the FHLB system, the Company is required to maintain a minimum level of investment in FHLB stock based on specific percentages of its outstanding mortgages, total assets or FHLB advances. As of December 31, 2010, the minimum required investment was approximately $2,880. Stock redemptions are at the discretion of the FHLB.

FHLB stock is generally viewed as long-term investment. Accordingly, when evaluating FHLB stock for impairment its value is determined based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether the decline affects the ultimate recoverability is influenced by criteria such as the following:

•

The significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLBs as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLBs and the length of time this situation has persisted.

•

Commitments by the FHLBs to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLBs.

•

The impact of legislative and regulatory changes on the institution and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLBs.

•

The liquidity position of the FHLBs.

Property, Plant and Equipment – Property is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Additions, betterments and replacements of major units are capitalized. Expenditures for normal maintenance, repairs and replacements of minor units are charged to expense as incurred. Gains or losses realized from sales or retirements are reflected in operations currently.

Depreciation and amortization is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated useful lives are 30 to 40 years for buildings, 3 to 10 years for furniture and equipment, and up to the lesser of the useful life or lease term for leasehold improvements.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets – Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis as of December 31. Additionally, goodwill is evaluated on an interim basis when events or circumstances indicate that a potential impairment exists. Goodwill impairment is deemed to exist and is recognized to the extent that the net book value of a reporting unit giving rise to the recognition of goodwill exceeds the estimated fair value.

Advertising – Advertising costs are charged to expense during the year in which they are incurred. Advertising expenses were $569, $817, and $756 for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Income Taxes – Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated using tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established to reduce the net carrying amount of deferred tax assets if it is determined to be more likely than not, that all or some of the potential deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The Company adopted the provision of FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes, relating to accounting for uncertain tax positions on January 1, 2007. Uncertain tax positions may arise when the Company takes or expects to take a tax position that is ultimately disallowed by the relevant taxing authority. The Company files tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service and the Oregon Department of Revenue. Tax returns for years subsequent to 2007 remain open to examination by these taxing jurisdictions. Management reviews the Company’s balance sheet, income statement, income tax provision and income tax returns as well as the permanent and temporary adjustments affecting current and deferred income taxes quarterly and assesses whether uncertain tax positions exist. At December 31, 2010, management does not believe that any uncertain tax positions exist, that are not more-likely-than-not, sustainable upon examination. The Company’s policy with respect to interest and penalties ensuing from income tax settlements is to recognize them as noninterest expense.

Earnings Per Share – Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share include the effect of common stock equivalents that would arise from the exercise of stock options discussed in Note 13. Weighted shares outstanding are adjusted retroactively for the effect of stock dividends.

Weighted average shares outstanding at December 31 are as follows:

	2010		2009		2008

Basic		18,399,245		13,961,310		11,980,211
Common stock equivalents attributable
to stock-based compensation plans		13,284		-		48,102

Diluted		18,412,529		13,961,310		12,028,313

Share-Based Payment Plans – Financial accounting standards require companies to measure and recognize compensation expense for all share-based payments at the grant date based on the fair value of the award, as defined in the Financial Accounting Standards Boards’ (FASB) ASC 718, “Stock Compensation,” and include such costs as an expense in our income statements over the requisite service (vesting) period. The Company adopted FASB ASC 718 using the modified prospective application, whereby the provisions of the statement have been applied prospectively only from the date of adoption for new (issued subsequent to December 31, 2005) and unvested stock option awards for which the requisite service is rendered after the date of adoption. Thus, the Company recognizes as expense the fair value of stock options issued prior to January 1, 2006, but vesting after January 1, 2006, over the remaining vesting period. In addition, compensation expense must be recognized for any awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled after the date of adoption. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to measure fair value.

Fair Value Measurements – Generally accepted accounting principles define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” establishes a three-level hierarchy for disclosure of assets and liabilities recorded at fair value. The classification of assets and liabilities within the hierarchy is based on whether the inputs to the valuation methodology used for measurement are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market-derived or market-based information obtained from independent sources while unobservable inputs reflect our estimates about market data. In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets that the Company has the ability to access. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements – On June 12, 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 860, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets”. FASB ASC 860 is a revision to preceding guidance and will require more information about transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and where entities have continuing exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. It eliminates the concept of a “qualifying special purpose entity,” changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and requires additional disclosures. In December 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-16, “Transfers and Servicing – Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets.” This update formally codifies FASB Statement No. 166, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets” and provides a revision for Topic 860 to require more information about transfers of financial assets. This statement and update were effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning January 1, 2010. The impact of adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, however all loan participations sold are being thoroughly reviewed to ensure that they meet the criteria for sale treatment.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements”. This update requires additional disclosure regarding transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2. It also requires the reporting of Level 3 fair value measurements on a gross rather than a net basis. This includes presenting information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements separately. Additionally, fair value measurement disclosures are required for each class of assets and liabilities with separate disclosures about valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value. The guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in the Level 3 fair value measurements. These disclosures are effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The impact of adoption is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-09, “Subsequent Events – Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements.” This update removed the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in both issued and revised financial statements. Revised financial statements include financial statements revised as a result of either correction of an error or retrospective application of U.S. GAAP. The amendments removed potential conflicts with the SEC’s literature. This guidance was effective February 24, 2010. The impact of adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-18, “Effect of a Loan Modification When the Loan Is Part of a Pool That Is Accounted for as a Single Asset.” This update affects any entity that acquires loans that have evidence of credit deterioration upon acquisition, accounts for those loans in the aggregate as a pool under Subtopic 310-30, and subsequently modifies one or more of those loans. Modifications of loans that are accounted for within a pool do not result in the removal of those loans from the pool even if the modification of those loans would otherwise be considered a troubled debt restructuring. This guidance is effective for modification of loans accounted for within pools occurring in the first interim or annual period ending on or after July 15, 2010. The impact of adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-20, “Receivables: Disclosure about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses.” This update requires additional disclosures on a disaggregated basis on two defined levels: (1) portfolio segment; and (2) class of financing receivable. The disclosures should include credit quality indicators of financing receivables, the aging of past due financing receivables, and the nature and extent of troubled debt restructurings that occurred during the period by class of financing receivables and their effect on the allowance for credit losses. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The impact of adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, but it did result in the significant expansion of the Company’s credit disclosures (see Note 3 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report).

In December 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-28, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other.” Under Topic 350 on goodwill and other intangible assets, testing for goodwill impairment is a two-step process. This update clarifies the need for an entity to complete the second step of the goodwill impairment test when one or more of its reporting units has a carrying amount at zero or negative. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The impact of adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-29, “Business Combinations.” The amendments in this update affect any public entity that enters into business combinations that are material on an individual or aggregate basis. They specify that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. The amendments in this update are effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The impact of adoption is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2011, the FASB Issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-01, “Receivables: Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20.” This update temporarily delays the effective date of the disclosures about troubled debt restructurings in Update 2010-20 for public entities. The delay is intended to allow the FASB time to complete its deliberations on what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. The effective date of the new disclosures about troubled debt restructurings for public entities and the guidance for determining what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring will then be coordinated and is anticipated to be effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2011. The impact of adoption is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications – Certain amounts contained in the 2009 and 2008 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified where appropriate to conform to the financial statement presentation used in 2010. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net income (loss).

At December 31, 2010, there were 96 investment securities in unrealized loss positions. The unrealized loss associated with the investments of $4,420 in a continuous unrealized loss position for twelve months or longer was $734. The projected average life of the securities portfolio is 3.8 years. The Company has no current intent, nor is it more likely than not, that it will be required to sell these securities before the recovery of carrying value.

At December 31, 2010, impairment exists on certain securities classified as obligations of states and political subdivisions and mortgage-backed securities. The impairment on obligations of states and political subdivisions is deemed to be temporary. Additionally, the impairment on agency mortgage-backed securities is deemed to be temporary as these securities retain strong credit ratings, continue to perform adequately, and are backed by various government-sponsored enterprises (“GSEs”). These impairments are associated with the changes in market interest rates or the widening of market spreads subsequent to the initial purchase of the securities and not due to concerns regarding the underlying credit of the issuers or the underlying collateral. The decline in value of these securities has resulted from current economic conditions. Although yields on these securities may be below market rates during the period, no loss of principal is expected.

During the second quarter 2010, management performed a detailed review of its private-label mortgage-backed securities and identified five individual securities which were deemed to have OTTI. Management’s evaluation included the use of independently generated third-party credit surveillance reports that analyze the loans underlying each security. These reports include estimates of default rates and severities, life collateral loss rates, and static voluntary prepayment assumptions to generate estimated cash flows at the individual security level. Additionally, management considered factors such as downgraded credit ratings, severity and duration of the impairments, the stability of the issuers, and any discounts paid when the securities were purchased.

The OTTI identified during the second quarter 2010 was divided into two components: the amount representing credit loss and the amount related to all other factors. The amount representing credit loss was $226 and was recognized in the second quarter 2010 against earnings. The amount representing all other factors was $140 and was recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. During the fourth quarter 2010, management reviewed all of its private-label mortgage-backed securities and identified no additional OTTI. Management has considered all available information related to the collectability of the impaired investment securities and believes that the estimated credit loss is appropriate.

Following is a tabular roll-forward of the amount of credit-related OTTI recognized in earnings during 2010, 2009 and 2008:

	December 31, 2010		December 31, 2009		December 31, 2008

	$	839,815					$	930,997

Real estate loans held for sale	$	2,116					$	745

At December 31, 2010, outstanding loans to dental professionals totaled $177,229 and represented 20.7% of total outstanding loans compared to dental professional loans of $158,433 or 16.8% of total loans at December 31, 2009. There are no other industry concentrations in excess of 10% of the total loan portfolio. However, as of December 31, 2010, approximately 70.7% of the Company’s loan portfolio was collateralized by real estate and is, therefore, susceptible to changes in local market conditions.

During 2010, management was actively engaged in reducing the Company’s exposure to residential construction lending and commercial real estate construction loans. At December 31, 2010, outstanding residential construction loans totaled approximately $22,683 and represented 2.6% of total outstanding loans, compared to residential construction loans of $41,714 or 4.4% of outstanding loans at December 31, 2009. In addition, at December 31, 2010, unfunded loan commitments for residential construction totaled approximately $7,740, compared to unfunded loan commitments for residential construction of $9,948 at December 31, 2009. Commercial real estate construction loans dropped from $38,921 or 4.1% of total outstanding loans in 2009 to $11,730, or 1.4% of total outstanding loans at December 31, 2010.

While appropriate action is taken to manage identified concentration risks, management believes that the loan portfolio is well diversified by geographic location and among industry groups.

Allowance for Loan Losses:

A summary of the activity in the allowance for loan losses is as follows for the years ended 2010, 2009 and 2008:

	Twelve months ended
	December 31,
	2010			2009			2008

Balance, beginning of year	$	13,367		$	10,980		$	8,675
Provision charged to income		15,000			36,000			3,600
Loans charged against allowance		(15,514	)		(33,881	)		(1,477	)
Recoveries credited to allowance		3,717			268			182

Balance, end of year	$	16,570		$	13,367		$	10,980

As described in Note 1, the allowance for loan losses is established as an amount that management considers adequate to absorb possible losses on existing loans within the portfolio. The allowance consists of general, specific and unallocated components. The general component is based upon all loans collectively evaluated for impairment. The specific component is based upon all loans individually evaluated for impairment. The unallocated component represents credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio that may not have been contemplated in the general risk factors or the specific allowance analysis. A summary of the activity in the allowance for loan losses by major loan classification follows:

Allowance for Loan Losses and Recorded Investment in Financing Receivables

Total ending loan balance	$	244,764		$	522,849		$	83,455		$	5,900		$	-		$	856,968

The 2010 ending allowance includes $1,584 in specific allowance for $54,540 of impaired loans (net of government guarantees). At December 31, 2009, the Company had $58,861 of impaired loans (net of government guarantees) with a specific allowance of $1,042 assigned. Management believes that the allowance for loan loss was adequate as of December 31, 2010. There is, however, no assurance that future loan losses will not exceed the levels provided for in the allowance for loan loss and could possibly result in additional charges to the provision for loan losses.

Credit Quality Indicators

The following loan grades are often used by regulators when assessing the credit quality of a loan portfolio.

Pass- Credit exposure in this category range between the highest credit quality to average credit quality. Primary repayment sources generate satisfactory debt service coverage under normal conditions. Cash flow from recurring sources is expected to continue to produce adequate debt service capacity. There are many levels of credit quality contained in the Pass definition, but none of the loans contained in this category rise to the level of special mention.

Special Mention – A special mention asset has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the institution’s credit position at some future date. Special mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. The bank strictly and carefully employs the FDIC definition in assessing assets that may apply to this category. It is apparent that in many cases asset weaknesses relevant to this definition either (1) better fit a definition of a “well-defined weakness” or (2) in our experience ultimately migrate to worse risk grade categories, such as Substandard and Doubtful. Consequently, management elects to downgrade most potential Special Mention credits to Substandard or Doubtful, and therefore adopts a conservative risk grade process in the use of the Special Mention risk grade.

Substandard- A substandard asset is inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the Borrower or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. Loans in this category are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard assets, does not have to exist in individual assets classified substandard.

Doubtful- An asset classified doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Management strives to consistently apply these definitions when allocating its loans by loan grade. The following table presents the Company’s loan portfolio information by loan type and credit grade:

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, the Company is unlikely to collect all principal and interest due according to the terms of the loan agreement. When a loan is deemed to be impaired is it specifically reviewed for impairment in the allowance for loan losses calculation. Impaired loans are reported net of government guarantees to the extent that the guarantees are expected to be collected. The impaired balances reported above were reduced by government guarantees of $1,056, $446 and $239 at December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Impaired loans net of government guarantees totaled $54,540, $58,861 and $6,132 at December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The specific valuation allowance for loan losses for impaired loans was approximately $1,584, $1,048 and $887 at December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) are included in the impaired loan totals. At December 31, 2010, the Company had $3,679 in TDRs with no specific reserves and no additional unfunded commitments. The Company reported no TDRs in 2009 or 2008.

4. Loan Participations and Servicing:

In the normal course of business, the Company sold portions of loans to other institutions for cash in order to extend its lending capacity or to mitigate risk. These sales are commonly referred to as loan participations. Loan participations are performed without recourse and the participant’s interest is ratably concurrent with that retained by the Company. Cash flows are shared proportionately and neither the Company’s nor the participant’s interest is subordinated. The Company retains servicing rights and manages the client relationships for a reasonable servicing fee. The participated portion of these loans is not included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the servicing component of these transactions are not material to the consolidated financial statements. The Company’s exposure to loss is limited to its retained interest in the loans.

The following table reflects the amounts of loans participated.

	2010			2009
Total principal amount outstanding	$	100,197		$	78,069
less: principal amount derecognized		(39,938	)		(40,350	)
Principal amount included in loans on the balance sheet	$	60,259		$	37,719

5. Property and Equipment:

The balance of property and equipment net of accumulated depreciation and amortization at December 31, consists of the following:

	2010			2009

Land	$	3,834		$	3,834
Buildings and improvements		18,596			18,522
Furniture and equipment		10,851			8,793

		33,281			31,149
less: accumulated depreciation & amortization		(12,398	)		(10,921	)

Net property and equipment	$	20,883		$	20,228

Depreciation expense was $1,476, $1,340 and $1,488 for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

The Company leases certain facilities for office locations under noncancelable operating lease agreements expiring through 2039. Rent expense related to these leases totaled $1,148, $1,030 and $942 in 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The Company leases approximately 52% of its Springfield Gateway building to others under noncancelable operating lease agreements extending through 2012.

Future minimum payments required and anticipated lease revenues under these leases are:

			Property

Amortization		(223	)		(223	)		(223	)

Total goodwill and intangible assets	$	22,458		$	22,681		$	22,904

The goodwill and core deposit intangible assets relate to the NWB Financial Corporation acquisition in November 2005. In accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles Goodwill and Other”, the Company does not recognize amortization expense related to its goodwill but completes periodic assessments of goodwill impairment. Impairment, if deemed to exist, would be charged to noninterest expense in the period identified. Management completed its annual assessment of goodwill impairment as of December 31, 2010, and determined no impairment currently exists.

Forecasted amortization expense on the core deposit intangible asset is approximately $223 for 2011 and $204 for the year 2012.

7. Deposits:

The aggregate amount of deposits reclassified as loan balances at December 31, 2010 and 2009, was $6 and $69, respectively.

10. Junior Subordinated Debentures:

In connection with the November 2005 acquisition of NWB Financial Corporation, the Company formed a wholly owned Delaware statutory business trust subsidiary, Pacific Continental Corporation Capital Trust (the “Trust”), which issued $8,248 of guaranteed undivided beneficial interests in the Company’s Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures (“Trust Preferred Securities”). These debentures qualify as Tier 1 capital under Federal Reserve Board guidelines. All of the common securities of the Trust are owned by the Company. The proceeds from the issuance of the common securities and the Trust Preferred Securities were used by the Trust to purchase $8,248 of junior subordinated debentures of the Company. The debentures, which represent the sole asset of the Trust, accrued and paid distributions quarterly at a fixed rate of 6.265% per annum of the stated liquidation value of $1 per capital security. At January 7, 2011, the interest rate changed to a variable rate of three-month LIBOR plus 135 basis points.

The Company has entered into contractual arrangements which, taken collectively, fully and unconditionally guarantee payment of: (1) accrued and unpaid distributions required to be paid on the Trust Preferred Securities, (2) the redemption price with respect to any Trust Preferred Securities called for redemption by the Trust, and (3) payments due upon a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, winding up, or liquidation of the Trust. The Trust Preferred Securities are mandatorily redeemable upon maturity of the debentures on January 7, 2036, or upon earlier redemption as provided in the indenture. The Company has the right to redeem the debentures purchased by the Trust in whole or in part, on or after, January 7, 2011. As specified in the indenture, if the debentures are redeemed prior to maturity, the redemption price will be the principal amount and any accrued interest. For the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, the Company recognized net interest expense of $510, $524 and $498, respectively, related to the Trust Preferred Securities.

It is anticipated that all credits and other deferred asset items will be fully utilized in the normal course of operations and, accordingly, management has not reduced deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance.

12. Retirement Plan:

The Company has a 401(k) profit sharing plan covering substantially all employees. The plan provides for employee and employer contributions. The total plan expenses, including employer contributions, were $271, $11 and $713 in 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

13. Stock-based Compensation:

Prior to April 2006, incentive stock option (ISO) and non-qualified option awards were granted to employees and directors under the Company’s 1999 Employees’ Stock Option Plan, and the Company’s 1999 Directors’ Stock Option Plan. Subsequent to the annual shareholders’ meeting in April 2006, all shares available under these plans were deregistered and are no longer available for future grants.

At the annual shareholders’ meeting in April 2006, shareholders approved the 2006 Stock Option and Equity Compensation Plan (the “2006 SOEC Plan”). Pursuant to this plan, ISOs, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, or stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) may be awarded to attract and retain the best available personnel to the Corporation and its subsidiaries. Additionally, non-qualified option awards and restricted stock awards may be granted to directors under the terms of this plan. 1,050,000 shares are currently authorized under the 2006 SOEC Plan.

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors may impose any terms or conditions on the vesting of an award that it determines to be appropriate. Awards granted generally vest over four years and have a maximum life of ten years. Stock options may be granted at exercise prices of not less than 100% of the fair market value of our common stock at the grant date; provided, however, that in the case of an incentive stock option granted to an employee who immediately before the grant of such incentive stock option is a significant shareholder-employee, the incentive stock option exercise price shall be at least 110% of the fair market value of the common stock as of the date of grant of the incentive stock option. Restricted stock awards may be granted at the fair market value on the date of the grant.

SARs may be settled in common stock or cash as determined at the date of issuance. SARs settled in cash are recognized on the balance sheet as liability-based awards. The grant-date fair value of liability-based awards vesting in the current period, along with the change in fair value of the awards during the period, are recognized as compensation expense and as an adjustment to the recorded liability. Liability-based awards (including all cash-settled SARs) are anti-dilutive and have no impact on the number of shares available to be issued within the plan.

ISOs, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and stock-settled SARs are recognized as equity-based awards and compensation expense is recorded to the income statement over the requisite vesting period based on the grant-date fair value.

The following table summarizes the shares and the grant-date fair market values of the awards granted during the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008:

	2010				2009				2008

	$	873	$	220	$	690	$	179	$	626	$	114

For any future grants, as required by ASC 718, the Company will estimate the impact of forfeitures based on our historical experience with previously granted stock-based compensation awards, and consider the impact of the forfeitures when determining the amount of expense to record. For awards issued prior to the adoption of ASC 718, forfeitures were recognized when the award was actually forfeited. The Company generally issues new shares of common stock to satisfy stock option exercises.

Stock Options –

The following table provides the weighted-average grant date fair values for stock options granted during the last three years. These values were estimated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

At December 31, 2010, the Company has estimated unrecognized compensation expense of approximately $379, $593 and $178 for unvested stock options, stock-settled SARs and cash-settled SARs, respectively. These amounts are based on a forfeiture rate assumption of 20% for all awards granted to employees. The weighted-average period of time the unrecognized compensation expense will be recognized for the unvested stock options, stock-settled SARs and cash-settled SARs is approximately 2.6, 2.7 and 1.9 years, respectively.

14. Transactions with Related Parties:

The Company has granted loans to officers and directors and to companies with which they are associated. Such loans are made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unrelated parties. Activity with respect to these loans during the year ended December 31 was as follows:

	2010			2009			2008

Balance, beginning of year	$	1,088		$	1,763		$	1,462

Additions or renewals		828			874			549
Amounts collected		(923	)		(1,549	)		(248	)

Balance, end of year	$	993		$	1,088		$	1,763

In addition, there were $249 in commitments to extend credit to directors and officers at December 31, 2010, which are included among loan commitments, disclosed in Note 15.

15. Commitments and Contingencies:

In order to meet the financing needs of its clients, the Company commits to extensions of credit and issues letters of credit. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for other products. In the event of nonperformance by the client, the Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of the instruments. The Company’s collateral policies related to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk conform to its general underwriting guidelines.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a client as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since some of the commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a client to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to clients.

Off-balance sheet instruments at December 31 consist of the following:

	2010		2009

Commitments to extend credit (principally
variable rate)	$	104,808	$	133,515
Letters of credit and financial guarantees written	$	1,493	$	1,614

The Company has entered into Executive Employment Agreements with two key executive officers. The employment agreements provide for minimum aggregate annual base salaries of $672,719, plus performance adjustments, life insurance coverage, and other perquisites commonly found in such agreements. The two employment agreements expire in 2013 unless extended or terminated earlier.

Legal contingencies arise from time-to-time in the normal course of business. Based upon analysis of management and in consultation with the Company’s legal counsel there are no current legal matters which are expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

16. Fair Value Disclosures of Financial Instruments:

The following disclosures about fair value of financial instruments are made in accordance with provisions of ASC 825 “Financial Instruments.” The use of different assumptions and estimation methods could have a significant effect on fair value amounts. Accordingly, the estimates of fair value herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that might be realized in a current market exchange.

The estimated fair values of the financial instruments at December 31 are as follows:

	2010				2009
	Carrying				Carrying
	Amount		Fair Value		Amount		Fair Value

Financial assets:
Cash and cash equivalents	$	25,691	$	25,691	$	16,970	$	16,970
Securities available for sale		253,907		253,907		167,618		167,618
Loans held-for-sale		2,116		2,116		745		745
Loans		856,385		844,838		944,364		932,608
Interest receivable		4,371		4,371		4,408		4,408
Federal Home Loan Bank stock		10,652		10,652		10,652		10,652

Financial liabilities:
Deposits		958,959		959,993		827,918		829,893
Federal funds and overnight funds purchased		-		-		63,025		63,025
Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings		67,000		69,456		130,000		130,787
Junior subordinated debentures		8,248		1,927		8,248		7,987
Accrued interest payable		3,731		3,731		623		623

Cash and Cash Equivalents – The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Securities available for sale and Federal Home Loan Bank stock – Fair value is based on quoted market prices. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities. FHLB stock is valued based on the most recent redemption price.

Loans Held-for-sale – Fair value represents the anticipated proceeds from the sale of related loans.

Loans – For variable rate loans that reprice frequently and have no significant change in credit risk, fair value is based on carrying values. Fair value of fixed rate loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. Fair values for impaired loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses or underlying collateral values, where applicable, and consider credit risk. The Company uses an independent third party in establishing the fair value of its loan portfolio.

Interest receivable and payable – The carrying amounts of accrued interest receivable and payable approximate their fair value.

Deposits – Fair value of demand, interest bearing demand and savings deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. Fair value of time deposits is estimated using the interest rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The Company uses an independent third party to establish the fair value of time deposits.

Federal Funds Purchased – The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short-term nature of these borrowings.

Federal Home Loan Bank Borrowings – Fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings is estimated by discounting future cash flows at rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.

Junior Subordinated Debentures – Fair value of Junior Subordinated Debentures is estimated by discounting future cash flows at rates currently available for debt with similar credit risk, terms and remaining maturities.

Off-Balance-Sheet Financial Instruments – The carrying amount and fair value are based on fees charged for similar commitments and are not material.

Financial instruments, measured at fair value, are broken down in the tables below by recurring or nonrecurring measurement status. Recurring assets are initially measured at fair value and are required to be remeasured at fair value in the financial statements at each reporting date. Assets measured on a nonrecurring basis are assets that, due to an event or circumstance, were required to be remeasured at fair value after initial recognition in the financial statements at some time during the reporting period.

The table below shows assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2010:

17. Regulatory Matters:

The Company and the Bank are subject to the regulations of certain federal and state agencies and receive periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities. In addition, they are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by 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 consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company and the Bank’s 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 Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to leverage assets. Management believes that, as of December 31, 2010, the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

As of December 31, 2010, and according to Federal Reserve and FDIC guidelines, the Company and the Bank are considered to be well-capitalized. To be categorized as well-capitalized, the Company and the Bank must maintain minimum Total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution’s category.

The Company’s and the Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios are presented in the table below:

											To Be Well
											Capitalized Under
						For Capital					Prompt Corrective
	Actual					Adequacy Purposes					Action Provisions
	Amount		Ratio			Amount		Ratio			Amount		Ratio

ITEM 9A Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and timely reported as provided in the SEC rules and forms. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the three months ended December 31, 2010, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. This internal control system has been designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of the Company’s published financial statements.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

The management of Pacific Continental Corporation has assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting at December 31, 2010. To make this assessment, the Company used the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in Internal Control – Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, the Company believes that as of December 31, 2010, the internal control over financial reporting system met those criteria.

The Company’s independent auditors, Moss Adams, LLP, have issued an attestation report on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The attestation report can be found on pages 50 and 51 of this document.
