Available for sale securities with a total fair value of $68.5 million at June 30, 2009 were
pledged as collateral to secure public deposits and for other purposes required or permitted by
law.
The Company uses the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (FHLBNY) as its primary source of
overnight funds and also has several long-term advances with FHLBNY. At June 30, 2009, the Company
had a total of $32.9 million in borrowed funds with FHLBNY. The Company has placed sufficient
collateral in the form of residential and commercial real estate loans at FHLBNY that meet FHLB
collateral requirements. As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System, the Bank is required to
hold stock in FHLBNY. The Bank held $2.1 million in FHLBNY stock as of June 30, 2009.
There are 12 branches of the FHLB, including New York. Several members have warned that they have
either breached risk-based capital requirements or that they are close to breaching those
requirements. To conserve capital, some FHLB branches are suspending dividends, cutting dividend
payments, and not buying back excess FHLB stock that members hold. To the extent that one FHLB
branch cannot meet its obligations to pay its share of the systems debt, other FHLB branches can
be called upon to make the payment.
Systemic weakness in the FHLB could result in impairment of the Companys FHLB stock. However,
FHLBNY currently meets all of its capital requirements, continues to redeem excess stock for
members, and has the expressed ability and intent to continue paying dividends. The most recent
dividend was distributed on May 26, 2009 at 5.6% of capital stock. It has maintained a AAA credit
rating with a stable outlook. FHLBNY earned $148.1 million in the first quarter, an increase from
$100.2 million in the previous years first quarter. Due to the relatively strong financial health
of FHLBNY, there is no impairment in the Banks FHLB stock as of June 30, 2009.
The scheduled maturities of debt and mortgage-backed securities at June 30, 2009 are summarized
below. All maturity amounts are contractual maturities. Actual maturities may differ from
contractual maturities because certain issuers have the right to call or prepay obligations with or
without call premiums.

Management has assessed the securities available for sale in an unrealized loss position at
June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 and determined the decline in fair value below amortized cost
to be temporary. In making this determination, management considered the period of time the
securities were in a loss position, the percentage decline in comparison to the securities
amortized cost, the financial condition of the issuer (primarily government or government-sponsored
enterprises) and the Companys ability and intent to hold these securities until their fair value
recovers to their amortized cost. Management believes the decline in fair value is primarily
related to market interest rate fluctuations and not to the credit deterioration of the individual
issuers.
While the Company has not recorded any other-than-temporary impairment charges in 2008 or 2009,
gross unrealized losses amount to only 0.4% of the total fair value of the securities portfolio at
June 30, 2009, and the gross unrealized position has increased only $174 thousand from December 31,
2008 to June 30, 2009, it remains possible that the poor economy could negatively impact the
securities portfolio in the future. The credit worthiness of the Companys portfolio is largely
reliant on the ability of U.S. government sponsored agencies such as FHLB, Federal National
Mortgage Association (FNMA), and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC), and
municipalities throughout New York State to meet their obligations. In addition, dysfunctional
markets could materially alter the liquidity, interest rate, and pricing risk of the portfolio.
The relatively stable past performance is not a guarantee for similar performance of the Companys
securities portfolio going forward.
3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, defines fair
value, provides a framework for determining fair value and requires enhanced disclosure for those
assets and liabilities that are carried on the balance sheet at fair value. Effective January 1,
2009, the Company adopted the non-financial assets and liabilities provision of SFAS No. 157, which
requires measurement at fair value of certain non-financial assets and liabilities which are
re-measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.
There are three levels of determining fair value.
Level 1 Inputs uses unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. |
Level 2 Inputs uses observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. |
Level 3 Inputs uses unobservable inputs that are based on the entitys estimates about the assumptions that market participants would be expected to use and which cannot be corroborated by market data. |
Observable market data should be used when available.

At June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the estimated fair values of the Companys financial

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of
financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable
estimate of fair value. Cash and Cash Equivalents includes interest-bearing deposits at other
banks.
Securities. Fair values for securities are determined using independent pricing services and
market-participating brokers. The pricing service and brokers use a variety of techniques to
arrive at fair value including market maker bids, quotes, and pricing models. Inputs to their
pricing models include recent trades, benchmark interest rates, spreads, and actual and projected
cash flows. Management obtains a single market quote or price estimate for each security. These
quoted prices reflect current information based on orderly transactions. These are considered
Level 2 inputs under SFAS 157.
The Company holds certain municipal bonds as held-to-maturity. These bonds are generally small in
dollar amount and are issued only by certain local municipalities within the Companys market area.
The original terms are negotiated directly and on an individual basis. These bonds are not traded
on the open market and management intends to hold the bonds to maturity. The fair value is
calculated by discounting the cash flows at current interest rates using market observable inputs
as no market quotes are available.
Loans Receivable. The fair value of fixed rate loans is estimated by discounting the future cash
flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit
ratings and for the same remaining maturities, net of the appropriate portion of the allowance for
loan losses. For variable rate loans, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Leases Held For Sale. The Company is currently initiating a plan to sell its lease portfolio in
its entirety. The fair value of leases held for sale is determined by quoted market prices from
identified potential buyers and, as such, have been classified as a Level 2 valuation.
Deposits. The fair value of demand deposits, NOW accounts, muni-vest accounts and regular savings
accounts is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of time deposits is
estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Other Borrowed Funds and Securities Sold Under Agreement to Repurchase. The fair value of the
short-term portion of other borrowed funds approximates its carrying value. The fair value of the
long-term portion of other
Table of Contents
13
borrowed funds is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the Companys current
incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
Junior Subordinated Debentures. The carrying amount of Junior Subordinated Debentures is a
reasonable estimate of fair value due to the fact that they bear a floating interest rate that
adjusts on a quarterly basis.
Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. As described in Note 8 Contingent
Liabilities and Commitments to these Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company was
a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk at June 30, 2009 and December 31,
2008. Such financial instruments consist of commitments to extend permanent financing and letters
of credit. If the options are exercised by the prospective borrowers, these financial instruments
will become interest-earning assets of the Company. If the options expire, the Company retains any
fees paid by the counterparty in order to obtain the commitment or guarantee. The fair value of
commitments is estimated based upon fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking
into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the
counterparties. For fixed-rate commitments, the fair value estimation takes into consideration an
interest rate risk factor. The fair value of guarantees and letters of credit is based on fees
currently charged for similar agreements. The fair value of these off-balance sheet items at June
30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 approximates the recorded amounts of the related fees, which are not
considered material.
Certain lending commitments for construction residential mortgage loans are considered derivative
instruments under the guidelines of SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities. The changes in the fair value of these commitments due to interest rate risk
is not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as the fair value of these derivatives is not
considered material.
The following table presents for each of the fair-value hierarchy levels as defined in this
footnote, those financial instruments disclosed in the previous table which are measured at fair
value on both a recurring and non-recurring basis at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008:

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, they are subject
to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of
impairment). For the Company, these include impaired loans and goodwill and intangible assets.
The Company evaluates and values impaired loans at the time the loan is identified as impaired, and
the fair values of such loans are estimated using Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. Fair
value is estimated based on the value of the collateral securing these loans. Collateral may
consist of real estate and/or business assets including equipment, inventory and/or accounts
receivable and the value of these assets is determined based on appraisals by qualified licensed
appraisers hired by the Company. Appraised and reported values may be discounted based on
managements historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation,
estimated costs to sell, and/or managements expertise and knowledge of the client and the clients
business. Impaired loans had a carrying value of $2.2 million, with a valuation allowance of $0.5
million, at June 30, 2009, compared to a carrying value for loans and leases of $2.7 million, with
a valuation allowance of $0.7 million, at December 31, 2008.

The Company measures the fair value of its reporting units annually, as of December 31st, using
Level 3 inputs, utilizing the market value and income methods to determine if its goodwill and
intangible assets are impaired. When using the cash flow models, management considers historical
information, the Companys operating budget for 2009, and the Companys strategic goals in
projecting net income and cash flows for the next five years. However, impairment analysis of
the leasing reporting unit was performed at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2009 due to a
material change in circumstances and the decision to exit the national direct financing leasing
business. FAS Statement No. 142 requires interim impairment testing when there is a material
change in circumstances. The analysis resulted in a $2.0 million goodwill impairment charge
pertaining to the leasing reporting unit. After experiencing a net loss in the second quarter of
2009 and in view of the fact that the market price for a share of the Companys common stock was
still below book value per share, management performed another impairment test for the entire
Company at June 30, 2009. There were no impairment charges as a result of the test.
4. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
The Company elected to exit its national leasing operations in the first quarter of 2009. During
the second quarter of 2009, the Company developed a plan of sale for the lease portfolio, which
included an active strategy to identify potential buyers. There are no other assets or liabilities
held for sale related to the leasing reporting unit. Based on competitive bids the leases were
marked to market to $40.9 million and classified as held for sale at June 30, 2009. In accordance
with FAS No. 144 Accounting for the Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, the operations
of the leasing reporting unit have been reported as discontinued operations in the accompanying
statements of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009 and for all prior
year periods presented. For the second quarter of 2009, the Company recognized an after-tax loss
of $2.1 million from discontinued operations, primarily related to the mark to market adjustment of
$6.9 million of leases, of which $3.8 million was previously reserved for in the allowance for loan
and lease losses.
The leasing business was formerly included in the Banking segment. The income statements for all
periods have been reclassified. The reclassification resulted in a reduction to previously
reported levels of Interest Income, Interest Expense on Deposits and Net Interest Income; a
reduction in Provision for Loan and Lease Losses; a reduction in Other non-interest income; and a
reduction in Non-Interest Expense. The reduction in those line items is equal to the amount
attributable to the discontinued operations and is netted together in the (Loss) Income from
discontinued operations line in the Companys unaudited consolidated statements of operations.
Interest income attributable to the leasing reporting unit amounted to approximately $1.5 for the
second quarter of 2009 compared with $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2008. Additionally,
the year to date leasing interest income was $3.2 million and $3.3 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The Company allocates interest expense to the leasing
reporting unit for the cost to fund the lease portfolio. The interest expense allocated is based
on an internally designated rate for the average outstanding lease balance that is required to be
funded in any one reporting period. Due to the allocation of interest expense to the discontinued
leasing operations, interest expense on deposits was reduced $0.7 million for the three month
periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 and $1.5 million for the six month periods ended June 30, 2009
and 2008.
5. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES
The provision for loan and lease losses represents the amount charged against the Banks earnings
to maintain an allowance for probable loan and lease losses based on managements evaluation of the
loan and lease portfolio at the balance sheet date. Factors considered by the Banks management in
establishing the allowance include: the collectability of individual loans and leases, current loan
and lease concentrations, charge-off history, delinquent loan and lease percentages, input from
regulatory agencies, and general economic conditions.
On a quarterly basis, management of the Bank meets to review and determine the adequacy of the
allowance for loan and lease losses. In making this determination, the Banks management analyzes
the ultimate collectability of the loans and leases in its portfolio by incorporating feedback
provided by the Banks internal loan and lease staff, an independent internal loan and lease review
function and information provided by examinations performed by regulatory agencies.
Table of Contents
15
The analysis of the allowance for loan and lease losses is composed of three components: specific
credit allocation, general portfolio allocation and a subjective allocation. The specific credit
allocation includes a detailed review of the credit in accordance with SFAS No. 114, Accounting by
Creditors for Impairment of a Loan and SFAS No. 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a
Loan Income Recognition and Disclosures, and allocation is made based on this analysis. The
general portfolio allocation consists of an assigned reserve percentage based on the historical
loss experience and other qualitative factors of the loan or lease category.
The subjective portion of the allowance reflects managements evaluation of various conditions, and
involves a higher degree of uncertainty because this component of the allowance is not identified
with specific problem credits or portfolio segments. The conditions evaluated in connection with
this component include the following: industry and regional conditions; seasoning of the loan and
lease portfolio and changes in the composition of and growth in the loan and lease portfolio; the
strength and duration of the business cycle; existing general economic and business conditions in
the lending areas; credit quality trends in nonaccruing loans and leases; timing of the
identification of downgrades; historical loan and lease charge-off experience; and the results of
bank regulatory examinations.
The following table sets forth information regarding the allowance for loan and lease losses for
the six month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.

6. PER SHARE DATA
The common stock per share information is based upon the weighted average number of shares
outstanding during each period. The Company had no potential dilutive securities for the three and
six month periods ended June 30, 2009. This compares with 1,792 and 1,002 for the three and six
month periods ended June 30, 2008, respectively.
Potential common shares that would have the effect of increasing diluted earnings per share are
considered to be anti-dilutive and not included in calculating diluted earnings per share. For the
three and six months periods ended June 30, 2009, there were approximately 168 thousand and 174
thousand shares, respectively, that were not included in calculating diluted earnings per share
because their effect was anti-dilutive. For the three and six months periods ended June 30, 2008,
there were approximately 106 thousand and 100 thousand shares, respectively, that were not included
in calculating diluted earnings per share because their effect was anti-dilutive.

8. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS
The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not reflect various commitments and contingent
liabilities, which arise in the normal course of business, and which involve elements of credit
risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk. These commitments and contingent liabilities consist
of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. A summary of the Banks commitments
and contingent liabilities is as follows:
June 30, | December 31, | |||||||
2009 | 2008 | |||||||
(in thousands) | ||||||||
Commitments to extend credit |
$ | 89,140 | $ | 87,320 | ||||
Standby letters of credit |
4,062 | 2,807 | ||||||
Total |
$ | 93,202 | $ | 90,127 | ||||
Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit include some exposure to credit loss in
the event of nonperformance of the customer. The Banks credit policies and procedures for credit
commitments and financial guarantees are the same as those for extensions of credit that are
recorded on the Companys unaudited consolidated balance sheets. Because these instruments have
fixed maturity dates, and because they may expire without being drawn upon, they do not necessarily
represent cash requirements of the Bank. The Bank has not incurred any losses on its commitments
during the past two years.
Certain lending commitments for construction residential mortgage loans are considered derivative
instruments under the guidelines of SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities. The changes in the fair value of these commitments due to interest rate risk
is not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as the fair value of these derivatives is not
considered material.
The
Company is subject to possible litigation proceedings in the normal course of business. As of June 30, 2009, there were no claims pending against the Company that management considered to be
material.

9. NET PERIODIC BENEFIT COSTS
On January 31, 2008, the Bank froze its defined benefit pension plan. The plan covered
substantially all Company employees. The plan provides benefits that are based on the employees
compensation and years of service. Under the freeze, eligible employees will receive the benefits
already earned through January 31, 2008 at retirement, but will not be able to accrue any
additional benefits. As a result, service cost will no longer be incurred.
The Bank used an actuarial method of amortizing prior service cost and unrecognized net gains or
losses which result from actual experience and assumptions being different than those that are
projected. The amortization method the Bank used recognized the prior service cost and net gains or
losses over the average remaining service period of active employees. The freezing of the defined
benefit pension plan was considered a curtailment. This resulted in the elimination of the
unrecognized prior service cost and the unrecognized net loss. The elimination of those two
components resulted in a $328 thousand gain in the first quarter of 2008.
The Bank also maintains a nonqualified supplemental executive retirement plan covering certain
members of the Companys senior management. The Bank uses an actuarial method of amortizing
unrecognized net gains or losses which result from actual expense and assumptions being different
than those that are projected. The amortization method the Bank uses recognizes the net gains or
losses over the average remaining service period of active employees.
The following table presents the net periodic cost for the Banks defined benefit pension plan and
supplemental executive retirement plan for the six month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.

The minimum required contribution for the defined benefit pension plan for 2009 is $0. However,
the Bank expects to make a contribution of approximately $140,000 to alleviate the reduction in
plan assets over the past year due to the volatile equities market.
10. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In April of 2009, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FAS 107-1, Interim Disclosures About Fair
Value of Financial Instruments. This position extends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 107,
Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments, to interim financial statements of
publicly traded companies. Staff Position No. FAS 107-1 is effective for interim periods ending
after June 15, 2009 with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The
Company has adopted the standard in the current reporting period and has provided the enhanced
disclosure requirements around fair value of financial instruments in Note 3 to these Unaudited
Consolidated Financial Statements.
Table of Contents
20
In April of 2009, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FAS 115-2, Recognition and Presentation of
Other-Than-Temporary Impairments. This position revised the guidance for determining whether an
impairment is other than temporary for debt securities, requires bifurcation of any other than
temporary impairment between the amount representing credit loss and the amount related to all
other factors and requires additional disclosures on other than temporary impairment of debt and
equity securities. Staff Position No. FAS 115-2 is effective for interim and annual reporting
periods ending after June 15, 2009 with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15,
2009. The Company adopted Staff Position No. FAS 115-2 in the current reporting period, but because
it has had no previous other-than-temporary impairment charges, there was no impact on the
Companys financial statements.
In April of 2009, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the
Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and
Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly. This position provides additional guidance on
estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability have
significantly decreased in relation to normal market activity for the asset or liability, provides
guidance on circumstances that may indicate that a transaction is not orderly and requires
additional disclosures about fair value measurements in annual and interim reporting periods. As
the Company does not have any assets or liabilities that have experienced a significant decrease in
activity in relation to normal market activity, Staff Position No. FAS 157-4 did not have an impact
on the Companys financial statements.
In June of 2009, the FASB issued Statement No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and
the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The FASBs Accounting Standards
Codification was released on July 1, 2009. The Codification will become the exclusive
authoritative reference for nongovernmental U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)
for use in financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15,
2009, except for SEC rules and interpretive releases, which are also authoritative GAAP for SEC
registrants. The contents of the Codification will carry the same level of authority, eliminating
the four-level GAAP hierarchy previously set forth in Statement No. 162. The Codification will
supersede all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered,
non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become nonauthoritative. The
Company will adopt the standard for the interim period ended September 30, 2009. There will be no
impact on the Companys financial statements, but disclosure references will adhere to the
Codification.
In June of 2009, the FASB issued Statement No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R).
Statement No. 167 amends the guidance in FASB Interpretation 46(R) related to the consolidation of
variable interest entities (VIEs). It changes the approach to determining a VIEs primary
beneficiary from a quantitative assessment to a qualitative assessment designed to identify a
controlling financial interest, and increases the frequency of required reassessments to determine
whether a company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. It also clarifies, but does not
significantly change, the characteristics that identify a VIE. This Statement requires additional
year-end and interim disclosures for public and nonpublic companies that are similar to the
disclosures required by FSP FAS140-4 and FIN 46(R)-8, Disclosures by Public Entities (Enterprises)
about Transfers of Financial Assets and Interests in Variable Interest Entities. The Statement is
effective as of the beginning of a companys first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2009,
and for subsequent interim and annual reporting periods. The Company will adopt the standard on
January 1, 2010. As the Company does not have any VIEs, the adoption of this standard will not
have any impact on the Companys financial statements.
11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Subsequent events per SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events, represent events or transactions occurring
after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be
issued. Financial statements are considered issued when they are widely distributed to
shareholders and others for general use and reliance in a form and format that complies with GAAP.
Financial statements are considered available to be issued when they are complete in form and
format that complies with GAAP and all approvals necessary for their issuance have been obtained.
Specifically, there are two types of subsequent events:
Table of Contents
21
| Those comprising events or transactions providing additional evidence about conditions that existed at the balance sheet date, including estimates inherent in the financial statement preparation process (referred to as recognized subsequent events). |
| Those comprising events that provide evidence about conditions not existing at the balance sheet date but, rather, that arose after such date (referred to as non-recognized subsequent events). |
Subsequent events have been evaluated through August 14, 2009, the date the June 30, 2009
financial statements were available to be issued.
On July 24, 2009, the Bank entered into a definitive purchase and assumption agreement (the
Agreement) with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) under which the Bank assumed
approximately $51 million in liabilities, consisting almost entirely of deposits, and certain other
liabilities, consisting primarily of accrued interest, and purchased substantially all of the
assets, of Waterford Village Bank, a community bank located in Williamsville, New York. Total
assets purchased (as calculated post-closing) amounted to approximately $47 million, including a
loan portfolio of approximately $43 million. Under the terms of the Agreement, the FDIC made an
initial payment of $4.6 million to Evans Bank, which includes the bid price of a $0.8 million
discount and approximately $3.8 million for the capital shortfall at the initial closing. The
final settlement will be determined 180 days after the purchase date of July 24, 2009. All of the
purchased loans and foreclosed real estate that are being purchased by the Bank under the Agreement
are covered by a loss sharing agreement between the FDIC and the Bank which is included in the
Agreement. Under this loss sharing agreement, the FDIC has agreed to bear 80% of loan and
foreclosed real estate losses up to $5.6 million and 95% of losses that exceed $5.6 million.
Reimbursable losses are based on the book value of the relevant loans and foreclosed assets as
determined by the FDIC as of the date of the acquisition.
Management is still evaluating the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities
assumed, as is required under the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, the amount of any
goodwill or bargain purchase gain is also yet to be determined.
ITEM 2 MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain certain forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), that involve
substantial risks and uncertainties. When used in this report, or in the documents incorporated by
reference herein, the words anticipate, believe, estimate, expect, intend, may, plan,
seek, and similar expressions identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking
statements include statements regarding the Companys business plans, prospects, growth and
operating strategies, statements regarding the asset quality of the Companys loan and investment
portfolios, and estimates of the Companys risks and future costs and benefits.
These forward-looking statements are based largely on the expectations of the Companys management
and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to general
economic conditions, either nationally or in the Companys market areas, that are worse than
expected; increased competition among depository or other financial institutions; inflation and
changes in the interest rate environment that reduce the Companys margins or reduce the fair value
of financial instruments; changes in laws or government regulations affecting financial
institutions, including changes in regulatory fees and capital requirements; the Companys ability
to enter new markets successfully and capitalize on growth opportunities; the Companys ability to
successfully integrate acquired entities; changes in accounting pronouncements and practices, as
adopted by financial institution regulatory agencies, the Financial Accounting Standards Board and
the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board; changes in consumer spending, borrowing and saving
habits; changes in the Companys organization, compensation and benefit plans; and other factors
discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as in the Companys periodic
reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). Many of these factors are
beyond the Companys control and are difficult to predict.
There have been historical disruptions in the financial system in recent months and many lenders
and financial
Table of Contents
22
institutions have reduced or ceased to provide funding to borrowers, including other lending
institutions. The availability of credit, confidence in the entire financial sector, and stability
in financial markets has been adversely affected. These disruptions are likely to have some impact
on all institutions in the U.S. banking and financial industries.
Because of these and other uncertainties, the Companys actual results, performance or achievements
could differ materially from those contemplated, expressed or implied by the forward-looking
statements contained herein. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made.
The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise forward-looking information,
whether as a result of new, updated information, future events or otherwise.
APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The Companys Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and follow
general practices within the industries in which it operates. Application of these principles
requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported
in the Companys Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes. These estimates,
assumptions and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the Unaudited
Consolidated Financial Statements. Accordingly, as this information changes, the Unaudited
Consolidated Financial Statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions and judgments.
Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions and
judgments, and as such, have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially
different than originally reported. Estimates, assumptions and judgments are necessary when assets
and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value, when a decline in the value of an asset
not carried on the financial statements at fair value warrants an impairment write-down or
valuation reserve to be established, or when an asset or liability needs to be recorded contingent
upon a future event. Carrying assets and liabilities at fair value inherently results in more
financial statement volatility. The fair values and the information used to record valuation
adjustments for certain assets and liabilities are based either on quoted market prices or are
provided by other third-party sources, when available. When third-party information is not
available, valuation adjustments are estimated in good faith by management primarily through the
use of internal cash flow modeling techniques. Refer to Note 3 to the Companys Unaudited
Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
further detail on fair value measurement.
Significant accounting policies followed by the Company are presented in Note 1 to the Audited
Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the
other Notes to the Companys Audited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in its Annual
Report on Form 10-K and in this financial review, provide information on how significant assets and
liabilities are valued in the Companys Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and how those
values are determined.
Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to the
methods, assumptions and estimates underlying those amounts, management has identified the
determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses and valuation of goodwill to be the
accounting areas that require the most subjective or complex judgments, and as such, could be most
subject to revision as new information becomes available.
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
The allowance for loan and lease losses represents managements estimate of probable losses in the
Companys loan and lease portfolio. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan and lease
losses is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires significant judgment on the
part of management and the use of estimates related to the amount and timing of expected future
cash flows on impaired loans and leases, estimated losses on pools of homogeneous loans and leases
based on historical loss experience and consideration of current economic trends and conditions,
all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The loan and lease portfolio also
represents the largest asset type on the Companys Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. Note 1
to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 in the Companys Annual Report
on Form 10-K describes the methodology used to determine the allowance for loan and lease losses.
Table of Contents
23
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
The amount of goodwill reflected in the Companys Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements is
required to be tested by management for impairment on at least an annual basis. The test for
impairment of goodwill on the identified reporting unit is considered a critical accounting
estimate because it requires judgment on the part of management and the use of estimates related to
the growth assumptions and market multiples used in the valuation model. The goodwill impairment
testing is typically performed annually on December 31st. However, an impairment
analysis of the leasing reporting unit was performed at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2009
due to a material change in circumstances, the Companys decision to exit the national direct
financing leasing business. SFAS Statement No. 142 requires interim impairment testing when there
is a material change in circumstances. The analysis resulted in a $2.0 million goodwill impairment
charge. After experiencing a net loss in the second quarter of 2009 and in view of the fact that
the market price for a share of the Companys common stock was still below book value per share,
management performed another impairment test at June 30, 2009 for the remainder of the business.
There were no impairment charges as a result of the test.
ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
Loan and Lease Activity
Total loans and leases grew to $424.8 at June 30, 2009, reflecting a $6.0 million or 1.4% increase
from March 31, 2009 and a $17.0 million or 4.2% increase from December 31, 2008. Gross loans and
leases are net of $0, $10.0 million, and $11.1 million of unearned income on direct financing
leases as of June 30, 2009, March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. Commercial loans
and leases totaled $324.1 million at June 30, 2009, reflecting a $3.7 million or 1.2% increase from
March 31, 2009 and a $15.3 million or 4.9% increase from December 31, 2008. Growth in commercial
real estate loans of $18.6 million for the second fiscal quarter and $29.8 million for the year to
date was largely responsible for the increase in commercial loans and leases from March 31, 2009
and December 31, 2008, respectively, to June 30, 2009.
The Company has no direct exposure to sub-prime lending, and as a result, the faltering sub-prime
credit market has not affected the Companys loan portfolio beyond the recessionary consequences
suffered by the economy as a whole. In contrast, some of the Banks larger competitors and the
conduit markets are having capital adequacy and liquidity problems due to their exposure to
sub-prime loans in their investment portfolio or lending activities in other parts of the United
States. These problems have caused some of those competitors to curtail their lending activities
somewhat and consequently have created opportunities in the local commercial real estate market for
smaller banks not experiencing the same issues, such as the Bank. The increased opportunities have
resulted in the Banks strong loan growth rates.
Direct finance lease balances decreased $14.5 million or 26.2% from March 31, 2009 and $17.7
million or 30.2% from December 31, 2008. Starting in the third quarter of 2008, the leasing
portfolios asset quality began to deteriorate. This deterioration accelerated in the first
quarter of 2009. Non-performing leases increased to $2.1 million at June 30, 2009, from $0.8
million at December 31, 2008 and $1.6 million at March 31, 2009. Net leasing charge-offs in the
second quarter of 2009 were $7.7 million (including $6.9 million for the mark-to-market
adjustment), compared with $1.6 million in the first quarter of 2009 and $0.4 million in the second
quarter of 2008. This rapid deterioration in the portfolio prompted management to take preventive
measures such as credit tightening for new applicants and consolidation of ENLs broker network
during the fourth quarter of 2008. However, in the first quarter of 2009 management decided that
these measures were not enough and materially slowed new originations. Given the high risk of the
portfolio in the current economic recession, in April 2009 management decided that the business
model of ENL was no longer a good strategic fit, and decided to exit the national leasing business.
As it was the Companys intent to sell the leasing portfolio as of June 30, 2009, the portfolio was
marked to its market value and classified as held for sale on the Companys balance sheet.
Consumer loans totaled $100.1 million at June 30, 2009, reflecting a $2.5 million or 2.6% increase
from March 31, 2009 and a 2.0% increase from December 31, 2008. Consumer real estate loans
increased $1.0 million or 1.8% from March 31, 2009 and decreased $0.5 million or 0.9% from December
31, 2008. Recent efforts by the federal government to stimulate housing demand in the face of the
economic recession have lowered residential home mortgage rates and resulted in significantly
increased consumer real estate demand. However, given the low fixed
Table of Contents
24
rates and long terms of the loans being originated, the Company has sold most of its originated
residential mortgage loans. This, along with accelerated prepayments from existing customers
re-financing their homes, has resulted in decreased consumer real estate balances at June 30, 2009
compared to December 31, 2008.
The Bank sells these fixed rate residential mortgages to the Federal National Mortgage Association
(FNMA), while maintaining the servicing rights for those mortgages. During the three month
period ended June 30, 2009, the Bank sold mortgages to FNMA totaling $4.6 million, as compared with
$0.9 million sold during the three month period ended June 30, 2008. During the six month period
ended June 30, 2009, the Bank sold mortgages to FNMA totaling $8.8 million, as compared to $1.4
million sold during the six month period ended June 30, 2008. At June 30, 2009, the Bank had a
loan servicing portfolio principal balance of $33.2 million upon which it earns servicing fees, as
compared with $31.0 million at March 31, 2009 and $26.9 million at December 31, 2008.

of the net charge-offs for all periods were in the Companys
leasing portfolio, including the mark to market value of $6.9 million when the portfolio became
classified as held-for-sale. The rapid deterioration of the portfolio and the sensitivity of
direct financing leases to the economic environment led management to make the strategic decision
in April 2009 to exit the national direct financing leasing business. As it was the Companys
intent to sell the leasing portfolio as of June 30, 2009, the portfolio was marked to its market
value and classified as held for sale on the balance sheet.
Non-performing loans and leases, defined as accruing loans and leases greater than 90 days past due
and non-accrual loans and leases, totaled 1.14% of total loans and leases outstanding at June 30,
2009 as compared with 0.98% at March 31, 2009 and 0.88% at December 31, 2008. The allowance for
loan and lease losses totaled $5.6 million or 1.31% of total loans and leases outstanding at June
30, 2009 as compared with $7.8 million or 1.86% of total loans and leases outstanding as of March
31, 2009 and $6.1 million or 1.49% of total loans and leases outstanding as of December 31, 2008.
Given the accelerated charge-offs in the leasing portfolio and the continued troubles in the
economy, management increased the allowance for loan and lease losses through the provision for
loan and lease losses to cover the increased level of expected future losses inherent in the
portfolio at March 31, 2009. However, when the direct financing leases were classified as held for
sale at June 30, 2009 and marked to their market value, the markdown was recorded as a charge-off
that reduced the reserve for leases to zero. This resulted in a lower allowance for loan and lease
losses at June 30, 2009.
The adequacy of the Companys allowance for loan and lease losses is reviewed quarterly by the
Companys management with consideration given to loan and lease concentrations, charge-off history,
delinquent loan and lease percentages, regulatory considerations, and general economic conditions.
Management believes the allowance for loan and lease losses is adequate for losses from existing
loans and leases.
The following table sets forth information regarding non-performing loans and leases as of the
dates specified.

For the three and six month period ended June 30, 2009, gross interest income that would have been
reported on non-accruing loans and leases had they been current was $127 thousand and $217
thousand. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008, gross interest income that
would have been reported on non-accruing loans and leases had they been current, was $14 thousand
and $30 thousand, respectively. There was $6 thousand and $61 thousand of interest income on
non-accruing loans and leases included in net income for the three and six month periods ended June
30, 2009. There was $12 thousand and $22 thousand of interest income on non-accruing loans and
leases included in net income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008.
Investing Activities
Total securities decreased to $79.8 million at June 30, 2009, reflecting a $13.3 million, or 14.3%,
decrease from $93.2 million at March 31, 2009 and a 5.4% increase from $75.8 million at December
31, 2008. Securities and interest-bearing deposits at banks made up 16.8% of the Banks total
average interest earning assets in the second quarter of 2009 compared with 15.8% in the first
quarter of 2009 and 16.0% in the second quarter of 2008.
The Bank continues to have a large concentration in tax-advantaged municipal bonds, which make up
50.0% of the portfolio at June 30, 2009 compared with 47.1% at March 31, 2009 and 49.3% at December
31, 2008; and U.S. government-sponsored agency bonds of various types, which comprise 26.1% of the
portfolio at June 30, 2009 versus 34.2% at March 31, 2009 and 23.7% at December 31, 2008. Agency
mortgage-backed securities comprise 20.2% at June 30, 2009 compared with 16.1% at March 31, 2009
and 20.9% at December 31, 2008. As a member of both the Federal Reserve System and the Federal
Home Loan Bank of New York (FHLBNY), the Bank is required to hold stock in those entities. These
investments made up 3.7% of the portfolio at June 30, 2009 versus 2.6% at March 31, 2009 and 4.7%
at December 31, 2008. The credit quality of the securities portfolio as a whole is believed to be
strong as the portfolio is in an overall unrealized net gain position, with no individual
securities in a significant unrealized loss position.
The Company monitors extension and prepayment risk in the securities portfolio to limit potential
exposures. Management believes the average expected life of the securities portfolio is 3.7 years
as of June 30, 2009 compared with 3.0 years as of March 31, 2009 and 2.1 years as of December 31,
2008. The longer average life is because the Company does not have any short-term discount notes
as of June 30, 2009 as it did on March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, and also due to the
Companys purchase of municipal bonds to replace securities rolling off. Discount notes are bonds
which typically have maturities of under one month and are used to collateralize short-term,
seasonal municipal deposits. Late in 2008 and early in 2009, municipal bonds were selling at a
spread to U.S. Treasury bonds much wider than the historical norms due to market concerns over
municipal bond insurers during the economic crisis. Management took advantage of these wide
spreads and purchased municipal bonds at favorable yields. Spreads have now returned to much
closer to historical norms. Available-for-sale securities with a total fair value of $68.5 million
at June 30, 2009 were pledged as collateral to secure public deposits and for other purposes
required or permitted by law. The Company has no direct exposure to subprime mortgages, nor does
the Company hold private mortgage-backed securities, credit default swaps, or Fannie Mae or Freddie
Mac preferred stock investments in its investment portfolio.
Funding Activities
Total deposits at June 30, 2009 were $451.3 million, reflecting an $8.8 million or 1.9% decrease
from March 31, 2009 and a $47.3 million or 11.7% increase from December 31, 2008. Demand deposits
at June 30, 2009 were $87.8 million, reflecting a $7.5 million or 9.4% increase from March 31, 2009
and an $11.9 million or 15.6% increase from December 31, 2008. Demand deposit balances fluctuate
day-to-day based on the high volume of transactions normally associated with the demand product,
and therefore average demand deposit growth is a better
measure of sustained growth. Average demand deposits in the three month period ended June 30, 2009
were 7.7% higher than the first quarter of 2009, and 17.0% higher than the prior years second
quarter. Much of the overall deposit growth in the quarter ended June 30, 2009 when compared with
the prior year-end is attributable to an increase in regular savings deposits of $37.4 million, or
24.2%, to $191.6 million. The Company introduced a new money market savings product in 2008 and
much of the continued growth in regular savings is due to this product. NOW deposits increased
during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 by $2.5 million, or 26.1%, while muni-vest balances
decreased during the same quarter by $14.2 million, or 31.0%. The decrease in muni-vest balances
reflects the seasonal nature of municipal deposit balances. Municipal deposits trend higher in the
first quarter when municipalities collect taxes. These deposits tend to diminish throughout the
fiscal year as municipalities use the

funds for operations. Time deposits were $128.2 million at
June 30, 2009, reflecting a $12.8 million or 9.1% decrease from March 31, 2009 and an $8.2 million
or 6.0% decrease from December 31, 2008. The decrease in time deposits is primarily due to the
fact that management chose not to chase high-rate short-term competitive time deposit rates at a
time when wholesale rates remained at historical lows. The Companys customer acquisition strategy
has focused on attracting customers to its money market savings product, rather than time deposits.
Short-term borrowings from other correspondent banks and the FHLBNY was $6.2 million at June 30,
2009, a slight increase from $4.5 million at March 31, 2009, but a significant decrease from $30.7
million at December 31, 2008. Long-term borrowings were $27.0 million at June 30, 2009,
reflecting an $8.8 million increase from March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008. The Companys
strong savings deposit growth has resulted in a decrease in its need for wholesale short-term
borrowings. However, in an effort to mitigate interest rate risk with the growing variable rate
savings balances and declining fixed rate time deposits, the Company increased its long-term fixed
rate borrowings.

Net Income
The Company had income from continuing operations of $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2009, a
decrease of
$0.8 million, or 76.7%, from income from continuing operations of $1.1 million in the prior years
second quarter. The Companys strong growth in net interest income of $0.7 million was more than
offset by a $1.4 million increase in provision for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses was
increased as the troubled economy continues to increase the risk of future loan losses. For the
year-to-date, the Company had income from continuing operations of $2.0 million, a decrease of $0.5
million, or 22.1%, from continuing operations of $2.5 million in the prior year. The same factors
that caused the quarterly decrease were also the primary factors in the year-to-date decrease.
The Company also incurred a loss from discontinued operations of $2.1 million in the second quarter
of 2009, compared with income from discontinued operations of $0.3 million in the second quarter of
2008. The Companys
Table of Contents
30
lease portfolio was classified as held-for-sale at June 30, 2009, resulting in the leasing
portfolio being marked to its market value as determined by competitive bids received from
potential buyers. This mark of $6.9 million and net charge-offs of $0.8 million previous to the
portfolios classification as held-for-sale were the primary factors that caused the loss in
discontinued operations. Given the reserve for leases of $3.8 million at March 31, 2009, the
impact to income from discontinued operations before taxes was $3.9 million. For the year-to-date,
the loss from discontinued operations was $5.1 million, compared with income from discontinued
operations of $0.5 million in the prior year. The provision for leasing credit losses in the first
quarter was $2.9 million. Therefore, the year-to-date provision for leasing credit losses is $6.8
million. This provision was the primary cause of the year-to-date loss from discontinued
operations.
The Company has included several line items related to discontinued operations in its unaudited
consolidated statements of operations because the lease portfolio was classified as held-for-sale
at June 30, 2009. See Note 4, Discontinued Operations, to the Companys Unaudited Consolidated
Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of
the reclassification.
In total, the Company recorded a net loss for the second quarter of 2009 of $1.9 million, or
($0.67) per diluted share, compared with net income of $1.4 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, in
the second quarter of 2008. For the year to date, the net loss was ($3.1) million, or ($1.12) per
share, compared with $3.0 million in net income, or $1.08 per share, in the prior year period.
Return on average equity was (16.60%) for the quarter and (13.66%) for the year to date, compared
with 12.37% and 13.41% in last years respective periods.
Other Results of Operations
Net interest income increased to $5.3 million during the second quarter of 2009, an increase of
10.7% from $4.8 million in the second quarter of 2008. Net interest income for the six month
period ended June 30, 2009 was $10.6 million, an increase of 14.9% from $9.2 million in the prior
year. (The net interest income analysis includes the impact of the leasing portfolio. The average
balance sheet schedules on the previous two pages should be used in conjunction with this
analysis). Growth of the core loan portfolio and the reduced cost of interest-bearing liabilities
continue to be the main factors driving this increase. The core loan portfolio is defined as total
loans and leases less direct financing leases. Core loans were $383.8 million at June 30, 2009, an
increase of 5.6% from $363.4 million at March 31, 2009, and 10.0% from $349.1 million at December
31, 2008. The Company continued to experience strong growth in commercial real estate.
Origination of residential mortgages was also very strong in the second quarter of 2009 with $9.2
million in originations, compared with $4.5 million in last years second quarter. Residential
mortgage balances are flat, however, as the Company does not hold 30-year loans and has sold most
of the mortgages to FNMA in an effort to mitigate the interest rate risk of keeping 30-year fixed
rate loans, resulting in a gain on sale of $25 thousand, compared with a gain of $4 thousand in the
previous years second quarter. The Company continues to service all mortgage loans it originates.
The direct financing lease portfolio declined $14.5 million from March 31, 2009 to $40.9 million
at the end of the 2009 second quarter as the Company ceased lease originations in the second
quarter of 2009 and also marketed the portfolio for sale. As it was the Companys intent to sell
the portfolio at June 30, 2009, the lease portfolio was classified as held-for-sale and marked to
its market value of $40.9 million. The market value is based on quoted market prices from
identified potential buyers from the Companys marketing efforts related to the leasing portfolio.
The Companys net interest margin was 4.25% and 4.28% for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 2009, respectively, down from 4.70% and 4.57% in the prior years respective periods.
(The net interest margin analysis includes the impact of the leasing portfolio. The average
balance sheet schedules on the previous two pages should be used in conjunction with this
analysis). The decreased margin was partly due to a higher concentration of investments in 2009,
which typically have lower yields than loans, and run-off in the leasing portfolio. Net loans and
leases earned a yield of 6.33% and 6.44% in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009,
respectively, compared with 7.46% and 7.56%, respectively. Some of the decrease in yield is due to
variable rate loans re-pricing at lower rates and new fixed-rate loans replacing older loans that
had higher interest rates. However, much of this negative impact to net interest income and net
interest margin is offset by the beneficial re-pricing in interest-bearing liabilities. The
incremental impact is attributable to the run-off of the leasing portfolio. The Companys leases
typically earned an interest yield of approximately 14%, much higher than the Companys core loan
portfolio yields noted above. After the leasing portfolio is sold or as it runs off, it is
expected that the net interest margin will decline. Limiting the effect of these factors was the
strong non-interest-bearing demand deposit growth discussed

above under Analysis of Financial Condition Funding Activities.
Net charge-offs to average total loans and leases increased to 7.48% compared with 1.59% in the
first quarter of 2009 and 0.42% for the 2008 second quarter. The net charge off ratio for the
first six months of 2009 was 4.58%, compared with 0.43% for the same period in 2008. This increase
in net charge-offs was primarily related to the direct finance national lease portfolio. As noted
earlier, the leasing portfolio was classified as held-for-sale on the balance sheet as of June 30,
2009, and as such was marked down to its market value. This mark to market adjustment and actual
charge-offs amounted to $7.7 million in the second quarter. $3.8 million had previously been
reserved for, resulting in the $3.9 million provision in the second quarter related to leasing.
Excluding the lease portfolio, there were $176 thousand in net charge-offs in the core loan
portfolio.
Non-interest income increased 13.5%, or $0.4 million, from last years second quarter to $3.0
million in the second quarter of 2009. For the six month period ended June 30, 2009, non-interest
income increased 12.0%, or $0.7 million, to $6.8 million. Non-interest income represented 39.9%
and 43.4% of total revenue in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009, compared with
40.9% and 45.1% in the same respective periods in 2008.
Insurance service and fee income, the largest component of non-interest income, was flat in the
second quarter of 2009 to last years second quarter at $1.6 million as the soft insurance market
continued. For the year-to-date, insurance services and fee income increased $0.2 million, or
5.3%, over the prior year period to $3.9 million. Other income increased $0.3 million from the
second quarter of 2008 to the second quarter of 2009 due to revenue generated by Suchak Data
Systems, Inc. (SDS), a data processing company acquired by the Company in December 2008. Other
income for the first six months increased $0.4 million over the same prior year period for the same
factors causing the quarterly increase.
Total non-interest expenses were $5.6 million and $10.9 million for the three and six month periods
ended June 30, 2009, respectively, compared with $4.8 million and $9.6 million for the same periods
in 2008. The largest component of the increase in total non-interest expenses from last years
second quarter was salaries and employee benefits expense of $3.0 million, which increased $0.3
million or 9.6% over the second quarter of 2008. Salaries and benefits were higher because of the
addition of 18 new employees including those working in the Companys new branch office in the
Elmwood Village in Buffalo, and from the acquisitions of SDS and the Fitzgerald Agency. Another
significant factor in the increase in non-interest expenses were higher FDIC insurance premiums.
FDIC insurance expense was $320 thousand for the three month period ended June 30, 2009 compared
with $30 thousand in the same period in the prior year. In addition to increased premiums, a $250
thousand special FDIC assessment to be paid in September 2009 was accrued for in June 2009.
For the year-to-date period, salaries and benefits expenses increased $0.7 million, or 12.7%, to
$6.1 million. FDIC insurance expense increased from $40 thousand to $383 thousand. The increases
were primarily attributed to the same factors cited above with respect to the quarterly increase.
The efficiency ratio for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009, was 70.59% and
70.07%, compared with 71.38% and 71.89% in last years comparable periods. Amortization is
excluded from the efficiency ratio calculation. The efficiency ratio has been relatively stable as
the increased salaries and benefits expenses and FDIC insurance expenses have been offset by the
increase in net interest income and non-interest income
Income tax benefit totaled ($1.1) million and ($1.8) million for the three and six month periods
ended June 30, 2009, respectively, reflecting an effective tax rate of (38.2%) and (36.6%). The
effective tax rate for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008 was 28.1% and 28.5%,
respectively. Excluding the tax benefit from discrete items such as the impairment charge and the
mark to market leasing adjustment, the Company records an effective tax rate based on the expected
rate for the entire year.
CAPITAL
The Company consistently maintains regulatory capital ratios measurably above the federal well
capitalized standard of 5.00% with a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 7.89%. Average equity as a
percentage of average assets was 8.02% in the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared with 8.58%
in the three months ended March 31, 2009, and 9.71% in the three months ended June 30, 2008. The
decrease was a result of the strong growth in core earning assets over the last year as well as the
net loss incurred in the first six months of 2009. The net loss in the second quarter of 2009
resulted in a lower book value per share of $15.08 at June 30,
2009, compared with $15.80 at March 31, 2009, and $16.57 at December 31, 2008.

LIQUIDITY
The Company utilizes cash flows from the investment portfolio and federal funds sold balances to
manage the liquidity requirements related to loan demand and deposit fluctuations. The Bank also
has many borrowing options. As a member of the FHLB the Bank is able to borrow funds at competitive
rates. Advances of up to $60.0 million can be drawn on the FHLB via an Overnight Line of Credit
Agreement between the Bank and the FHLB. The Bank recently was approved for additional credit at
FHLB after placing additional commercial real estate loans as collateral at FHLB. An amount equal
to 25% of the Banks total assets could be borrowed through the advance programs under certain
qualifying circumstances. The Bank also has the ability to purchase up to $14.0 million in federal
funds from its correspondent banks. By placing sufficient collateral in safekeeping at the Federal
Reserve Bank, the Bank could borrow at the discount window. The Companys liquidity needs also can
be met by more aggressively pursuing time deposits, or accessing the brokered time deposit market,
including the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (CDARS) network, of which the Bank
became a member in 2009. Additionally, the Company has access to capital markets as a funding
source.
Cash flows from the Companys investment portfolio are laddered, so that securities mature at
regular intervals, to provide funds from principal and interest payments at various times as
liquidity needs may arise. Contractual maturities are also laddered, with consideration as to the
volatility of market prices. At June 30, 2009, approximately 5.7% of the Banks securities had
contractual maturity dates of one year or less and approximately 33.5% had maturity dates of five
years or less.
Management, on an ongoing basis, closely monitors the Companys liquidity position for compliance
with internal policies, and believes that available sources of liquidity are adequate to meet
funding needs in the normal course of business. As part of that monitoring process, management
calculates the 90-day liquidity each month by analyzing the cash needs of the Bank. Included in
the calculation are liquid assets and potential liabilities. Management stresses the potential
liabilities calculation to ensure a strong liquidity position. Included in the calculation are
assumptions of some significant deposit run-off as well as funds needed for loan closing and
investment purchases. At June 30, 2009, in the Companys internal stress test, the Company had net
short-term liquidity of $29.0 million as compared with $19.7 million at March 31, 2009 and $22.4
million at December 31, 2008. Available assets of $84.3 million, divided by public and purchased
funds of $132.0 million, resulted in a long-term liquidity ratio of 64% at June 30, 2009, compared
with 65% at March 31, 2009 and 51% at December 31, 2008.
Management does not anticipate engaging in any activities, either currently or the long term, for
which adequate funding would not be available and which would therefore result in significant
pressure on liquidity. However, continued economic recession could negatively impact the Companys
liquidity. The Bank relies heavily on FHLBNY as a source of funds, particularly with its overnight
line of credit. Several members of FHLB have warned that they have either breached risk-based
capital requirements or that they are close to breaching those requirements. To conserve capital,
some FHLB branches are suspending dividends, cutting dividend payments, and not buying back excess
FHLB stock that members hold. FHLBNY has stated that they expect to be able to continue to pay
dividends, redeem excess capital stock, and provide competitively priced advances in the future.
The most severe problems in FHLB have been at some of the other FHLB branches. Nonetheless, the 12
FHLB branches are jointly liable for the consolidated obligations of the FHLB system. To the
extent that one FHLB branch cannot meet its obligations to pay its share of the systems debt,
other FHLB branches can be called upon to make the payment.
Systemic weakness in the FHLB could result in higher costs of FHLB borrowings and increased demand
for alternative sources of liquidity that are more expensive, such as brokered time deposits, the
discount window at the Federal Reserve, or lines of credit with correspondent banks First Tennessee
and M&T Bank.
The Company believes that the Bank maintains a sufficient level of U.S. government and government
agency securities and New York State municipal bonds that can be pledged as collateral for
municipal deposits.

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
Additional information responsive to this Item is contained in the Liquidity section of
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, which
information is incorporated herein by reference.
Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and/or interest rates of the
Banks financial instruments. The primary market risk the Company is exposed to is interest rate
risk. The core banking activities of lending and deposit-taking expose the Bank to interest rate
risk, which occurs when assets and liabilities reprice at different times and by different amounts
as interest rates change. As a result, net interest income earned by the Bank is subject to the
effects of changing interest rates. The Bank measures interest rate risk by calculating the
variability of net interest income in future periods under various interest rate scenarios using
projected balances for interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Managements
philosophy toward interest rate risk management is to limit the variability of net interest income
to changes in net interest rates. The balances of financial instruments used in the projections are
based on expected growth from forecasted business opportunities, anticipated prepayments of loans,
and expected maturities of investment securities, loans and deposits. Management supplements the
modeling technique described above with analysis of market values of the Banks financial
instruments and changes to such market values given changes in the interest rates.
The Banks Asset-Liability Committee, which includes members of senior management, monitors the
Banks interest rate sensitivity with the aid of a computer model that considers the impact of
ongoing lending and deposit taking activities, as well as interrelationships in the magnitude and
timing of the repricing of financial instruments, including the effect of changing interest rates
on expected prepayments and maturities. When deemed prudent, management has taken actions, and
intends to do so in the future, to mitigate exposure to interest rate risk through the use of on-
or off-balance sheet financial instruments. Possible actions include, but are not limited to,
changing the pricing of loan and deposit products, and modifying the composition of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and other financial instruments used for
interest rate risk management purposes.
The following table demonstrates the possible impact of changes in interest rates on the Banks net
interest income over a 12-month period of time:

Many assumptions were utilized by management to calculate the impact that changes in the interest
rates may have on the Banks net interest income. The more significant assumptions related to the
rate of prepayments of mortgage-related assets, loan and deposit volumes and pricing, and deposit
maturities. The Bank assumed immediate changes in rates including 200 basis point rate changes. In
the event that the 200 basis point rate changes cannot be achieved, the applicable rate changes are
limited to lesser amounts such that interest rates cannot be less than zero. These assumptions are
inherently uncertain and, as a result, the Bank cannot precisely predict the impact of changes in
interest rates on net interest income. Actual results may differ significantly due to the timing,
magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes in market conditions and interest rate
differentials (spreads) between
maturity/repricing categories, as well as any actions such as those previously described, which
management may

take to counter such changes. In light of the uncertainties and assumptions
associated with the process, the amounts presented in the table and changes in such amounts are not
considered significant to the Banks projected net interest income.
ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Companys management, with the participation of the Companys principal executive officer and
principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the
Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the
Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, the Companys principal executive and principal financial
officers concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2009 (the
end of the period covered by this Report) have been designed and are functioning effectively to
provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in its
reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported
within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information is
accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including its principal executive officer
and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
No changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting were identified in connection
with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act
that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009 that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
