Other-Than- Temporary -Impairment

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. The investment securities portfolio is evaluated for OTTI by segregating the portfolio by type and applying the appropriate OTTI model. Investment securities classified as available for sale or held-to-maturity are generally evaluated for OTTI under FASB ASC 320 “Investments – Debt and Equity Securities.”

In determining OTTI under the FASB ASC 320 model, management considers many factors, including: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions, and (4) whether the entity has the intent to sell the debt security or it is more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. The assessment of whether an other-than-temporary decline exists involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and is based on the information available to management at a point in time.

When OTTI occurs, the amount of the OTTI recognized in earnings depends on whether an entity intends to sell the security or it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, less any current-period credit loss. If an entity intends to sell or it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, less any current-period credit loss, the OTTI shall be recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the investment’s amortized cost basis and its fair value at the balance sheet date. If an entity does not intend to sell the security and it is not more likely than not that the entity will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period loss, the OTTI shall be separated into the amount representing the credit loss and the amount related to all other factors. The amount of the total OTTI related to the credit loss is determined based on the present value of cash flows expected to be collected and is recognized in earnings. The amount of the total OTTI related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. The previous amortized cost basis less the OTTI recognized in earnings becomes the new amortized cost basis of the investment.

As of September 30, 2010, the Company’s security portfolio consisted of 346 securities, 18 of which were in an unrealized loss position, and are discussed below.

Mortgage-backed Securities and Collateralized Mortgage Obligations – Residential

At September 30, 2010, all of the mortgage-backed securities held by the Company were issued by U.S. government-sponsored entities and agencies, primarily Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The government has affirmed its commitment to support these institutions. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates and illiquidity, and not credit quality, and because the Company does not have the intent to sell these securities and it is not likely that it will be required to sell the securities before their anticipated recovery, the Company does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2010.

U.S. Government-Sponsored Enterprises, State and Political Subdivisions and Corporate Bonds

Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates and illiquidity, and not credit quality, and because the Company does not have the intent to sell these securities and it is not likely that it will be required to sell the securities before their anticipated recovery, the Company does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2010. Credit ratings on these securities remain within policy limits and are all investment grade.

As a result of the above analysis, for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010, the Company did not recognize any other-than-temporary impairment losses for credit or any other reason.

6. Fair Value

FASB ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures,” defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. FASB ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the value that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate the fair value of each type of financial instrument:

Securities Available for Sale : Securities available for sale are fair valued utilizing an independent pricing service for identical assets or significantly similar securities. The pricing service uses a variety of techniques to arrive at fair value including market maker bids, quotes and pricing models. Inputs to the pricing models include recent trades, benchmark interest rates, spreads and actual and projected cash flows. This results in a Level 2 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Interest and dividend income is recorded on the accrual method and included in the income statement in the respective investment class under total interest income. Included in earnings as a result of the changes in fair value of trading securities were $6 thousand and $350 thousand of net trading losses for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively. No trading gains or losses were recognized during 2010.

Other Real Estate Owned : The fair value of other real estate owned is determined by observable comparable sales and property valuation techniques and takes into consideration the costs necessary to dispose of the property. This results in a Level 2 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Impaired Loans: Impaired loans are reported at the fair value of the underlying collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral and takes into consideration the costs necessary to dispose of the property. Collateral values are estimated using Level 3 input based on the discounting of the collateral measured by appraisals.

The specific estimation methods and assumptions used can have a substantial impact on the resulting fair values of financial instruments. Following is a brief summary of the significant methods and assumptions used in estimating fair values:

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The carrying values of these financial instruments approximate fair values.

Securities

Securities available for sale and held to maturity are fair valued utilizing an independent pricing service. The pricing service uses a variety of techniques to arrive at fair value including market maker bids and quotes of significantly similar securities and pricing models. Inputs to the pricing models include recent trades, benchmark interest rates, spreads and actual and projected cash flows.

Index

Loans

The fair values of all loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses with discount rates equal to the interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality.

Deposit Liabilities

The fair values disclosed for noninterest bearing deposits, interest bearing checking accounts, savings accounts, and money market accounts are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the balance sheet date. The carrying value of all variable rate certificates of deposit approximates fair value. The fair value of fixed rate certificates of deposit is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses with discount rates equal to the interest rates currently being offered on certificates of similar size and remaining maturity.

Short-Term Borrowings and Other Financial Instruments

The fair value of all short-term borrowings, and other financial instruments approximates the carrying value.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. Such financial instruments consist of commitments to extend financing and standby letters of credit. If the commitments are exercised by the prospective borrowers, these financial instruments will become interest earning assets of the Company. If the commitments expire, the Company retains any fees paid by the prospective borrower. The fair value of commitments is estimated based upon fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into consideration the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the borrower. For fixed rate commitments, the fair value estimation takes into consideration an interest rate risk factor. The fair value of these off-balance sheet items approximates the recorded amounts of the related fees, which are considered to be immaterial.

The Company does not engage in activities involving interest rate swaps, forward placement contracts, or any other instruments commonly referred to as derivatives

7. Adoption of New Accounting Guidance

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) amended existing guidance to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. This amended guidance addresses (1) practices that are not consistent with the intent and key requirements of the original guidance and (2) concerns of financial statement users that many of the financial assets (and related obligations) that have been derecognized should continue to be reported in the financial statements of transferors. The impact of adoption on January 1, 2010 was not material.

Index

In January 2010, the FASB amended existing guidance to improve disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements. New disclosures are required for significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and the reasons for the transfers. In addition, the FASB clarified guidance related to disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities as well as disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3. The impact of adoption on January 1, 2010 was not material as it required only disclosures, which are included in the Fair Value footnote.

In April 2009, the FASB issued amended clarifying guidance to address application issues raised by preparers, auditors and members of the legal profession on initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and accounting, and disclosure of assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a business combination. The impact of adoption was not material. In February 2010, the FASB issued guidance clarifying that an entity that is an SEC filer is not required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This change alleviates potential conflicts with SEC requirements.

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-18 – Receivables (Topic 310) - Effect of a Loan Modification When the Loan is part of a Pool that is Accounted for as a Single Asset. This Update clarifies that modifications of loans accounted for as a pool under Subtopic 310-30 do not result in those loans being removed from the pool. The provisions of this ASU are effective for modifications of loans in the first interim or annual period ending on or after July 15, 2010. The impact of adoption on July 1, 2010 was not material.

Newly Issued But Not Yet Effective Accounting Guidance

In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20 Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses. This ASU requires significantly more information about credit quality in a financial institution’s portfolio and the allowance for credit losses. The disclosure requirements as of the end of a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Management is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2010-20.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

TrustCo Bank Corp NY

Glenville, New York

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated statement of financial condition of TrustCo Bank Corp NY as of September 30, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of income and the consolidated statements of changes in shareholders’ equity for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The review that follows focuses on the factors affecting the financial condition and results of operations of TrustCo Bank Corp NY ("TrustCo" or "Company") during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010, with comparisons to 2009 as applicable. Net interest margin is presented on a fully taxable equivalent basis in this discussion. The consolidated interim financial statements and related notes, as well as the 2009 Annual Report to Shareholders should be read in conjunction with this review. Amounts in prior period consolidated interim financial statements are reclassified whenever necessary to conform to the current period's presentation.

Financial markets continue to present mixed messages. Equity markets were generally strong during the third quarter of 2010, with periods of volatility during the quarter but strong gains overall. Credit markets also showed some volatility during the quarter, but as a whole, interest rates declined significantly relative to their starting points at the beginning of the third quarter. For example, the 10 year Treasury declined 44 basis points to 2.53%, while 3 month LIBOR declined 24 basis points to 0.29%

Underlying national economic conditions remain subdued, with persistent issues in regard to unemployment and continued high levels of financial leverage in some sectors. The housing market remains troubled and issues regarding home foreclosures have become prominent topics of discussion in the media and within government.

The pace of bank failures has remained significantly elevated in 2010, the focus has mostly been on smaller institutions, and have been more the result of capital and asset quality problems, rather than the liquidity issues that resulted in the failures and near-failures of some of the largest financial institutions in the world during the initial phase of the financial crisis. The 2008 and early 2009 period saw unprecedented intervention by governments in markets and the financial services industry as the United States saw the two largest bank failures in its history in 2008 as well as failures of other major financial institutions, forced mergers and massive government bailouts. The United States Government responded to these events with legislation, including the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, which authorized the Troubled Asset Relief Program (“TARP”), and the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (“ARRA”) more commonly known as the economic stimulus or economic recovery package, which was intended to stimulate the economy and provide for extensive infrastructure, energy, health and education needs. In addition, the Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”), implemented a variety of major initiatives, including a sharp easing of monetary policy and direct intervention in a number of financial markets, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), the Treasury Department and other bank regulatory agencies also instituted a wide variety of programs. In general, most economists have reined in expectations for the remainder of 2010 and early 2011, as the overhang of significant loan and asset quality problems, as well as uncertainty regarding the eventual need for the FRB to move away from its easy money policy and the need for the FRB and other elements of the government to withdraw various supporting mechanisms remain concerns. However, the continuing economic weakness has led to an expectation that the Federal Reserve may engage in further quantitative easing in the near term, rather than any move to pull back from market intreventions. The Federal Government will also be implementing the recent financial reform bill, the “Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act” (the “ Dodd-Frank Act.”) over the coming months and years, which will likely have a significant impact on the financial services industry.

Index

TrustCo’s long-term focus on traditional banking services has enabled the Company to avoid significant impact from asset quality problems and the Company’s strong liquidity and solid capital positions have allowed the Company to continue to conduct business in a manner consistent with past practice. TrustCo has not engaged in the types of high risk loans and investments that have led to the widely reported problems in the industry. Nevertheless, the Company has experienced an increase in nonperforming loans, although management believes the level remains readily manageable. To the extent that housing values continue to decline on a national basis, any housing lender is subject to some increase in the level of risk. While the Company does not see a significant increase in the inherent risk of loss in its loan portfolios at September 30, 2010, should general housing prices and other economic measures, such as unemployment, in the Company’s market areas deteriorate, the Company may experience an increase in the level of risk.

In addition, the natural flight to quality that occurs in financial crisis, cuts in targeted interest rates and liquidity injections by the Federal government have served to reduce yields available on both short term liquidity (federal funds and other short term investments) as well as the low risk types of securities typically invested in by the Company. During the quarter, the slope of the yield curve was relatively positive, but there was some compression of the slope compared to the second quarter of 2010. The slope of the curve, as measured by the difference between the 10 year Treasury and the 2 year Treasury, averaged 2.62% in the second quarter of 2010, but declined to 2.25%, on average, during the third quarter. The future course of interest rates is subject to significant uncertainty, as various indicators are providing contradicting signals. The possible additional quantitative easing and the sheer volume of government financing expected in the coming quarters are likely to be factors in the direction and level of rates. Finally, the enactment, on July 21, 2010, of the Dodd-Frank Act will create additional uncertainty for the Company and the Bank. This new law will significantly change the current bank regulatory structure and affect the lending, deposit, investment, trading and operating activities of financial institutions and their holding companies.

The level of home foreclosures nationally has become an area of intense political and media interest. Recently, there have been instances of foreclosures where the paperwork or process may not have met legal requirements. Much of this has been related to mortgages that were sold one or more times, and in many cases were eventually securitized. The changes of ownership and the securitization process may have contributed to the reported errors that have been uncovered. TrustCo’s mortgage loan portfolio consists of loans its employees have originated and serviced. Files with the relevant documents are retained and monitored by staff members on Bank premises. Because TrustCo retains virtually every one of the loans that it originates, the exposure that can come with being forced to buy back nonperforming loans that have been sold is limited.

Forward-looking Statements

Statements included in this review and in future filings by TrustCo with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in TrustCo's press releases, and in oral statements made with the approval of an authorized executive officer, which are not historical or current facts, are "forward-looking statements" made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or projected. TrustCo wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The following important factors, among others, including the Risk Factors described in Item 1A of TrustCo’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 and in this report, in some cases have affected and in the future could affect TrustCo's actual results, and could cause TrustCo's actual financial performance to differ materially from that expressed in any forward-looking statement: (1) credit risk, (2) interest rate risk, (3) competition, (4) changes in the regulatory environment and in the monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve Board, (5) real estate and collateral values, and (6) changes in market area and general business and economic trends. The foregoing list should not be construed as exhaustive, and the Company disclaims any obligation to subsequently revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements, or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

Following this discussion is the table "Distribution of Assets, Liabilities and Shareholders' Equity: Interest Rates and Interest Differential" which gives a detailed breakdown of TrustCo's average interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.

Overview

TrustCo recorded net income of $8.4 million, or $0.109 of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2010, as compared to net income of $7.9 million or $0.103 of diluted earnings per share in the same period in 2009.

For the first nine months of 2010, TrustCo recorded net income of $22.4 million, or $0.292 of diluted earnings per share, as compared to net income of $19.6 million or $0.257 of diluted earnings per share in the same period in 2009.

The primary factors accounting for the change for three and nine month periods through September 30, 2010 as compared to the prior year were:

An increase in the average balance of interest earning assets of $215.0 million to $3.74 billion for the third quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 and an increase of $219.9 million for the first nine months of 2010 as compared to the prior year,

An increase in the average balance of interest bearing liabilities of $224.0 million to $3.32 billion for the third quarter of 2010 as compared to 2009 and an increase of $242.8 million for the first nine months of 2010, compared to the prior year,

Index

An increase in net interest margin for the first nine months of 2010 to 3.52% from 3.20% in the prior year resulting in an increase of $11.8 million in taxable equivalent net interest income, while the third quarter 2010 margin was flat at 3.42% compared to the prior year,

An increase in the provision for loan losses from $3.2 million for the third quarter of 2009 to $5.9 million in the comparable period in 2010. For the first nine months of 2010, the provision was $17.7 million, compared $7.9 million in the prior year period,

An increase of $1.5 million in net gains on securities transactions for the first nine months of 2010 as compared to same period in 2009, and

A decrease of $1.8 million in noninterest expense excluding net other real estate expense, for the first nine months of 2010 as compared to 2009 and a decrease of $354 thousand for the third quarter of 2010 compared to the prior year.

An increase of $2.6 million in net other real estate expense for the first nine months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009, and an increase of $652 thousand in the third quarter of 2010 compared to the third quarter of 2009. Both increases reflect higher levels of other real estate.

Asset/Liability Management

The Company strives to generate its earnings capabilities through a mix of core deposits funding a prudent mix of earning assets. Additionally, TrustCo attempts to maintain adequate liquidity and reduce the sensitivity of net interest income to changes in interest rates to an acceptable level while enhancing profitability both on a short-term and long-term basis.

TrustCo’s results are affected by a variety of factors including competitive and economic conditions in the specific markets in which the Company operates and more generally in the national economy, financial market conditions and the regulatory environment. Each of these is dynamic and changes in any area can have an impact on TrustCo’s results. Included in the Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2009 is a description of the effect interest rates had on the results for the year 2009 compared to 2008. Many of the same market factors discussed in the 2009 Annual Report continued to have a significant impact on the year to date 2010 results.

TrustCo competes with other financial service providers based upon many factors including quality of service, convenience of operations, and rates paid on deposits and charged on loans. The absolute level of interest rates, changes in interest rates and customers’ expectations with respect to the direction of interest rates have a significant impact on the volume of loan and deposit originations in any particular period.

Interest rates have a significant impact on the operations and financial results of all financial services companies. One of the most important interest rates used to implement national economic policy is the “Federal Funds” rate. This is the interest rate utilized within the banking system for overnight borrowings for institutions with the highest credit rating. The Federal Funds target rate decreased from 4.25% at the beginning of 2008 to a target range of 0.00% to 0.25% by the end of 2008, with the reductions occurring throughout the year. The target range has not been changed since. Traditionally interest rates on bank deposit accounts are heavily influenced by the Federal Funds rate. Deposit rates continued to decline in the third quarter of 2010 relative to prior periods, but the pace of the decline slowed. Please refer to the statistical disclosures in the table below entitled “Distribution of Assets, Liabilities and Shareholders’ Equity: Interest Rates and Interest Differential.”

Index

The interest rate on the 10 year Treasury bond and other long-term interest rates has a significant influence on the rates for new residential real estate loans. The Federal Reserve Board has attempted to influence rates on mortgage loans by means other than targeting a lower Federal Funds rate, including direct intervention in the mortgage-backed securities market, through purchasing these securities in an attempt to raise prices and reduce yields. Although that program stopped earlier this year, the FRB may be considering implementing programs to purchase other securities including Treasuries. This may serve to extend the current low rate environment, or reduce rates further. Eventually the FRB will have to unwind these positions, which would likely have the opposite effect, putting upward pressure on rates. These changes in interest rates have an effect on the Company relative to the interest income on loans, securities, and Federal Funds sold and other short term instruments as well as on interest expense on deposits and borrowings. As noted above, residential real estate loans and longer-term investments are most affected by the changes in longer term market interest rates such as the 10 year Treasury. As noted previously, the 10 year Treasury yield, while fluctuating during the quarter is at a very low level. The Federal Funds sold portfolio and other short term investments are affected primarily by changes in the Federal Funds target rate. Deposit interest rates are most affected by short term market interest rates. Also, changes in interest rates have an effect on the recorded balance of the securities available for sale portfolio, which is recorded at fair value. Generally, as interest rates increase the fair value of these securities will decrease. Interest rates on new residential real estate loan originations are also influenced by the rates established by secondary market participants such as Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. The principal loan product for TrustCo is residential real estate loans. Because TrustCo is a portfolio lender and does not generally sell loans into the secondary market, the Company establishes rates that management determines are appropriate in light of the long-term nature of residential real estate loans while remaining competitive with the secondary market rates. Financial market volatility and the problems faced by the financial services industry have somewhat lessened the influence of the secondary market, however various programs initiated by arms of the Federal government have had an impact on rate levels for certain products. Most importantly, a government goal of keeping mortgage rates low has been supported by targeted buying of certain securities, thus supporting prices and constraining yields, as noted above.

Interest rates generally remained below historic norms on both short term and longer term investments. As noted, deposit costs have generally continued to decline over the third quarter of 2010, although the rate of decline has slowed.

Index

While TrustCo has been affected somewhat by aspects of the overall changes in financial markets, it has not been affected to the degree the mortgage crisis has affected some banks and financial institutions in the United States. The crisis revolves around actual and anticipated higher levels of delinquencies and defaults on mortgage loans, in many cases arising from lenders with overly liberal underwriting standards, changes in the types of mortgage loans offered, significant upward resets on adjustable rate loans, fraud and other factors. The Company utilizes a traditional underwriting process in evaluating loan applications, and since originated loans are retained in portfolio there is a strong incentive to be conservative in making credit decisions. For additional information concerning TrustCo’s loan portfolio and non-performing loans, please refer to the discussions under “Loans” and “Nonperforming Assets,” respectively. Further, the Company does not rely on borrowed funds to support its assets and maintains a very significant level of liquidity on the asset side of the balance sheet. These characteristics provide the Company with increased flexibility and stability during periods of market disruption.

For the third quarter of 2010, the net interest margin was 3.42%, flat versus the prior year quarter. The quarterly results reflect the following significant factors:

The average balance of federal funds sold and other short-term investments increased by $254.5 million while the average yield decreased to 25 basis points in the third quarter of 2010 from 1.50% in the same period in 2009. The decrease in yield on federal funds sold and other short-term investments is attributable to a lagged response to the decrease in the target federal funds rate and rates on alternative short-term investments. The increase in the average balance reflects the strong growth of deposit account balances and the lack of attractive longer term investment opportunities.

The average balance of securities available for sale, held-to-maturity securities and trading securities decreased by $174.0 million and the average yield decreased to 3.18% for the third quarter of 2010 compared to 3.38% for the same period in 2009. Within the total securities portfolio, the available-for-sale portfolio increased by $173.4 million, while the held-to-maturity portfolio decreased by $346.3 million.

The average loan portfolio grew by $134.6 million to $2.34 billion and the average yield decreased 14 basis points to 5.52% in the third quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. The decline in the average yield primarily reflects the decline in market interest rates on new loan originations as older, higher rate loans pay down.

The average balance of interest bearing liabilities (primarily deposit accounts) increased $224.0 million and the average rate paid decreased 47 basis points to 1.02% in the third quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. The decline in the rate paid on interest bearing liabilities reflects the decline in market interest rates and changes in competitive conditions.

During the third quarter of 2010, the Company continued to focus on its strategy to expand the loan portfolio by offering competitive interest rates as the rate environment changed. Management believes the TrustCo residential real estate loan product is very competitive compared to local and national competitors. As noted, the widespread disruptions in the mortgage market as a result of the financial crisis have not had a significant impact on TrustCo, partly because the Company has not originated the types of loans that have been responsible for many of the problems causing the disruptions as well as the fact that housing prices in the Company’s primary market have not experienced the declines realized in other areas of the country. The withdrawal from the market of some of the troubled lenders that did focus on subprime and similar loans has slightly improved competitive conditions for the type of residential mortgage loans focused on by TrustCo.

Index

The strategy on the funding side of the balance sheet continues to be to attract deposit customers to the Company based upon a combination of service, convenience and interest rate. The Company offered attractive long-term deposit rates as part of a strategy to lengthen deposit lives. The decline in the federal funds rate and slightly lessened competitive conditions has led to lower deposit rates offered by most depository institutions, including TrustCo, during 2010 including the third quarter. However, the decline in deposit costs has lagged the decline in the Federal Funds target rate.

Earning Assets

Total average interest earning assets increased from $3.53 billion in the third quarter of 2009 to $3.74 billion in the same period of 2010 with an average yield of 4.72% in 2009 and 4.33% in 2010. Interest income on average earning assets decreased from $41.7 million in the third quarter of 2009 to $40.5 million in the third quarter of 2010, on a tax equivalent basis, as the increase in average earning assets did not offset the decline in average yield.

Loans

The average balance of loans was $2.34 billion in the third quarter of 2010 and $2.20 billion in the comparable period in 2009. The yield on loans decreased 14 basis points to 5.52%. The higher average balances more than offset the lower yield, leading to an increase in the interest income on loans from $31.2 million in the third quarter of 2009 to $32.3 million in the third quarter of 2010.

Compared to the third quarter of 2009, the average balance of the loan portfolio during the third quarter of 2010 increased in residential mortgages and home equity lines of credit, but declined in commercial and consumer loans. The average balance of residential mortgage loans was $1.79 billion in 2010 compared to $1.65 billion in 2009, an increase of 8.7%. The average yield on residential mortgage loans decreased by 17 basis points to 5.75% in the third quarter of 2010 compared to 2009.

TrustCo actively markets the residential loan products within its market territories. Mortgage loan rates are affected by a number of factors including rates on treasury securities, the federal funds rate and rates set by competitors and secondary market participants. As noted earlier, market interest rates have changed significantly in recent years as a result of national economic policy in the United States, as well as due to disruptions in the mortgage market. During this period of changing interest rates, TrustCo aggressively marketed the unique aspects of its loan products thereby attempting to create a differentiation from other lenders. These unique aspects include extremely low closing costs, fast turn-around time on loan approvals, no escrow or mortgage insurance requirements for qualified borrowers and the fact that the Company typically holds these loans in portfolio and does not sell them into the secondary markets. During the first nine months of 2010, the Company also introduced a feature allowing borrowers to set a loan closing date at the time of application. Assuming a rise in long-term interest rates, the Company would anticipate that the unique features of its loan product will continue to attract customers in the residential mortgage loan area.

Index

Commercial loans, which consist primarily of loans secured by commercial real estate, decreased $27.6 million to an average balance of $256.5 million in the third quarter of 2010 over the prior year. The average yield on this portfolio decreased 4 basis points to 5.90% over the same period.

The average yield on home equity credit lines increased 5 basis points to 3.65% during the third quarter of 2010 compared to 2009. The roughly flat yield reflects that the underlying index rate was unchanged over the last year. The average balances of home equity lines increased 6.9% to $287.0 million in the third quarter of 2010 as compared to the prior year.

Securities Available-for-Sale

The average balance of the securities available-for-sale portfolio for the third quarter of 2010 was $786.2 million compared to $612.9 million for the comparable period in 2009. The average yield was 3.02% for the third quarter of 2010 and 3.70% for the third quarter of 2009. This portfolio is primarily comprised of bonds issued by government sponsored enterprises (such as Fannie Mae, the Federal Home Loan Bank, and Freddie Mac), municipal bonds, corporate bonds and residential mortgage-backed securities. These securities are recorded at fair value with any adjustment included in other comprehensive income.

The net unrealized gain in the available-for-sale securities portfolio was $6.5 million as of September 30, 2010 compared to a unrealized gain of $6.8 million as of September 30, 2009, with the change due primarily to changes in interest rates and changes in the composition of the portfolios.

Trading Securities

There were no trading securities for the third quarter of 2010, compared to $1.0 million in the comparable period of 2009. The decline in balances was due to maturities and calls of securities. The average yield on trading securities was 4.44% for the third quarter of 2009.

Held-to-Maturity Securities

The average balance of held-to-maturity securities was $214.5 million for the third quarter of 2010 compared to $560.8 million in the third quarter of 2009. The average yield was 3.78% for the 2010 period compared to 3.02% for the year earlier period. TrustCo expects to hold the securities in this portfolio until they mature or are called.

The securities in this portfolio include bonds issued by government sponsored enterprises, residential mortgage-backed securities and corporate bonds. The balances for these securities are recorded at amortized cost.

Federal Funds Sold and Other Short-term Investments

The 2010 third quarter average balance of federal funds sold and other short-term investments was $403.9 million, a $254.5 million increase from the $149.4 million average for the same period in 2009. The yield decreased from 1.50% in 2009 to 0.25% in 2010. Changes in the yield resulted from changes in the target rate set by the Federal Reserve Board for federal funds sold a year ago and the gradual decline in rates on alternative short-term investments. Interest income from this portfolio decreased by approximately $307 thousand from $565 thousand in 2009 to $258 thousand in 2010, as the decline in yield more than offset the balance increase.

Index

The federal funds sold and other short-term investments portfolio is utilized to generate additional interest income and liquidity as funds are waiting to be deployed into the loan and securities portfolios.

Funding Opportunities

TrustCo utilizes various funding sources to support its earning asset portfolio. The vast majority of the Company’s funding comes from traditional deposit vehicles such as savings, demand deposits, interest-bearing checking, money market and time deposit accounts.

Total average interest-bearing deposits (which includes interest-bearing checking, money market accounts, savings, and certificates of deposit) increased from $2.99 billion during the third quarter of 2009 to $3.20 billion in the third quarter of 2010, and the average rate paid decreased from 1.48% for 2009 to 1.00% for 2010. Total interest expense on these deposits decreased $3.1 million to $8.1 million in the third quarter of 2010 compared to the year earlier period.

Average short-term borrowings for the quarter were $120.4 million in 2010 compared to $104.5 million in 2009. The average rate decreased during this time period from 1.60% in 2009 to 1.44% in 2010.

Net Interest Income

Taxable equivalent net interest income increased by $1.9 million to $32.0 million in the third quarter of 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009. The net interest spread increased from 3.23% in the third quarter of 2009 to 3.31% in 2010. As previously noted, the net interest margin was flat at 3.42% for the third quarter of 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009.

Nonperforming Assets

Nonperforming assets include nonperforming loans (NPLs) , which are those loans in a nonaccrual status, loans that have been restructured in a troubled debt restructuring, and loans past due three payments or more and still accruing interest. Also included in the total of nonperforming assets are foreclosed real estate properties, which are categorized as other real estate owned.

Impaired loans are considered to be those commercial and commercial real estate loans in a nonaccrual status and restructured loans. The following describes the nonperforming assets of TrustCo as of September 30, 2010:

Nonperforming loans : Total NPLs were $50.6 million at September 30, 2010, compared to $49.9 million at June 30, 2010 and to $46.0 million at December 31, 2009. There were $50.2 million of nonaccrual loans at September 30, 2010 compared to $49.5 million at June 30, 2010 and $45.6 million at December 31, 2009. Restructured loans were $341 thousand at September 30, 2010 compared to $386 thousand at June 30, 2010 and $400 thousand at December 31, 2009. There were no loans at September 30, 2010, June 30, 2010 or December 31, 2009 that were past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest.

Index

At September 30, 2010, nonperforming loans include a mix of commercial and residential loans. Of total nonperforming loans of $50.6 million, $36.0 million were residential real estate loans and $14.5 million were commercial mortgages and commercial loans, compared to $34.7 million and $15.1 million, respectively at June 30, 2010 and to $34.3 million and $11.7 million, respectively at December 31, 2009.

As previously noted, a significant percentage of non-performing loans are residential real estate loans, which are historically lower-risk than most other types of loans. The Bank’s loan loss experience on these loans has generally been strong with net charge-offs of 0.77% of average residential real estate loans (including home equity lines of credit) for the third quarter of 2010 (annualized) compared to 0.58% in the second quarter of 2010 and to 0.41% for the third quarter of 2009. These levels are elevated compared to historical levels, reflecting current economic conditions. Therefore, while the level of nonperforming loans has increased, the Company does not believe this represents a significant level of increased risk of loss in the current loan portfolios. Management believes that these loans have been appropriately written down where required.

Ongoing portfolio management is intended to result in early identification and disengagement from deteriorating credits. TrustCo has a diversified loan portfolio that includes a significant balance of residential mortgage loans to borrowers in the Capital Region of New York and avoids concentrations to any one borrower or any single industry. TrustCo has no advances to borrowers or projects located outside the United States. TrustCo continues to identify delinquent loans as quickly as possible and to move promptly to resolve problem loans. Efforts to resolve delinquencies begin immediately after the payment grace period expires, with repeated automatically generated notices as well as personalized phone calls and letters. Loans go to non-accrual status once they are 90 days past due. Once in non-accrual status, loans are either brought current and maintained current, at which point they may be returned to accrual status, or they proceed through the foreclosure process. The collateral on non-accrual loans is evaluated periodically and the loan value is written down if the collateral value is insufficient.

The Company originates loans throughout its deposit franchise area. At September 30, 2010, 91.7% of its gross loan portfolio balances were in New York State and the immediately surrounding areas (including New Jersey, Vermont and Massachusetts), and 8.3% were in Florida. Those figures compare to 92.1% and 7.9%, respectively at December 31, 2009. Within these two geographic regions, commercial loans constitute a larger component of the local outstandings in Florida than in New York, at 16.2% and 10.5%, respectively, as of September 30, 2010 however the Florida number declined significantly, from 20.5% at December 31, 2009. The New York component also declined, but less significantly from 11.3% at December 31, 2009 to the 10.5% level noted.

Index

Economic conditions vary widely by geographic location. Florida has experienced a more significant downturn than New York. Reflecting that, nonaccrual loans are more heavily weighted towards Florida. As of September 30, 2010, 54.3% of nonaccrual loans were to Florida borrowers, compared to 45.7% in New York and surrounding areas. The level of Florida based nonaccrual loans has declined from 61.3% as of December 31, 2009. Net charge-offs also reflect local conditions. For the three months ended September 30, 2010, Florida net charge-offs were equal to 79.8% of total net charge-offs, compared to 20.2% for New York and surrounding areas. The higher level of net charge-offs relative to loan outstandings reflects both the higher level of nonaccrual loans in Florida as well as a greater severity of loss as housing prices have fallen more significantly and broadly in the Florida markets than in the Company’s other market areas.

Management is aware of no other loans in the Bank’s portfolio that pose material risk of the eventual non-collection of principal and interest. Also as of September 30, 2010, there were no other loans classified for regulatory purposes that management reasonably expects will materially impact future operating results, liquidity, or capital resources.

TrustCo has identified nonaccrual commercial and commercial real estate loans, as well as all loans restructured under a troubled debt restructuring, as impaired loans. There were $14.5 million of nonaccrual commercial mortgages and loans classified as impaired as of September 30, 2010, compared to $15.1 million at June 30, 2010 and to $11.7 million at December 31, 2009. There were $341 thousand of impaired retail loans at September 30, 2010, compared to $386 thousand at June 30, 2010 and to $400 thousand at December 31, 2009. The average balances of all impaired loans were $15.0 million during the third quarter of 2010 and $12.9 million in the third quarter of 2009. The Company recognized approximately $14 thousand of interest income on these loans in the third quarter of 2010 and 2009 compared to approximately $55 thousand for all of 2009.

At September 30, 2010 there was $4.7 million of foreclosed real estate as compared to $5.4 million at June 30, 2010 and to $9.0 million at December 31, 2009.

During the third quarter of 2010, there were $300 thousand of gross commercial loan charge offs and $4.2 million of gross residential mortgage and consumer loan charge-offs as compared with $4.4 million of gross commercial loan charge-offs and $3.2 million of residential mortgage and consumer loan charge-offs in the second quarter of 2010 and to $500 thousand and $2.4 million, respectively, in the third quarter of 2009. Gross recoveries during the third quarter of 2010 were $2 thousand for commercial loans and $199 thousand for residential mortgage and consumer loans, compared to $6 thousand for commercial loans and $368 thousand for residential and consumer in the third quarter of 2009.

Allowance for loan losses: The balance of the allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level that is, in management’s judgment, representative of the amount of risk incurred in the loan portfolio.

Index

At September 30, 2010, the allowance for loan losses was $40.8 million, compared to the June 30, 2010 level of $39.2 million and to the December 31, 2009 balance of $37.6 million. The allowance represents 1.74% of the loan portfolio as of September 30, 2010 compared to 1.68% at June 30, 2010 and to 1.65% at December 31, 2009.

Allocation of the Allowance for Loan Losses

The allocation of the allowance for loans losses is as follows:

	As of September 30, 2010
	Amount		Percent of Loans to Total Loans
Commercial	$	4,239		10.99	%
Real estate - construction		172		0.42	%
Real estate mortgage - 1 to 4 family		29,599		76.06	%
Home equity lines of credit		6,594		12.33	%
Installment Loans		225		0.19	%
	$	40,829		100.00	%


	As of December 31, 2009
	Amount		Percent of Loans to Total Loans
Commercial	$	4,714		12.07	%
Real estate - construction		265		0.71	%
Real estate mortgage - 1 to 4 family		26,882		74.86	%
Home equity lines of credit		5,498		12.15	%
Installment Loans		233		0.21	%
	$	37,591		100.00	%

The provision for loan losses was $5.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 compared to $3.2 million for the third quarter of 2009 and to $7.1 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2010. Net charge-offs for the three-month period ended September 30, 2010 were $4.3 million compared to net charge-offs of $2.5 million for the comparable period in 2009 and $7.4 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2010. The provision for loan losses was increased due to net charge-offs, considerations of general economic trends throughout the Company’s market areas and to a lesser extent the increased non-performing loans. In deciding on the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, management reviews the current nonperforming loan portfolio as well as loans that are past due and not yet categorized as nonperforming for reporting purposes. The net charge-offs in the second quarter of 2010, included a charge-off on a commercial loan that while still performing on its original terms has known weaknesses that will likely impact its future performance. This loan was included in non-performing loans in both the second and third quarters. Also, there are a number of other factors that are taken into consideration, including:

Index

The magnitude and nature of recent loan charge offs and recoveries, and

The growth in the loan portfolio given existing economic conditions.

Management continues to monitor these factors in determining future provisions or credits for loan losses in relation to the economic environment, loan charge-offs, recoveries and the level and trends of nonperforming loans.

Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity

TrustCo seeks to obtain favorable sources of funding and to maintain prudent levels of liquid assets in order to satisfy varied liquidity demands. TrustCo’s earnings performance and strong capital position enable the Company to raise funds easily in the marketplace and to secure new sources of funding. The Company actively manages its liquidity through target ratios established under its liquidity policies. Continual monitoring of both historical and prospective ratios allows TrustCo to employ strategies necessary to maintain adequate liquidity. Management has also defined various degrees of adverse liquidity situations, which could potentially occur, and has prepared appropriate contingency plans should such a situation arise.

Noninterest Income

Total noninterest income for the third quarter of 2010 was $4.8 million, compared to $5.0 million in the prior year period. Excluding trading gains and losses and net securities transactions, non-interest income decreased from $4.1 million in the third quarter of 2009 to $3.9 million in the third quarter of 2010. Net gains on securities transactions were $934 thousand in the third quarter of 2010, compared to net gains of $892 thousand in the third quarter of 2009. There were also net trading losses of $6 thousand in the third quarter of 2009. With the elimination of the portfolio of trading securities, there will be no further trading gains or losses.

For the first nine months of 2010, total noninterest income was $14.4 million, compared to $14.3 million in the prior year. Excluding trading gains and losses and net securities transactions, non-interest income decreased from $13.7 million in the first nine months of 2009 to $11.9 million in the first nine months of 2010. The net of trading and securities gains and losses was $2.5 million in net gains in the first nine months of 2010, compared to net gains of $612 thousand in the first nine months of 2009.

Trust department income increased to $1.3 million for the third quarter of 2010 compared to $1.1 million in the third quarter of 2009. Trust department assets under management were $754 million at September 30, 2010 compared to $752 million at September 30, 2009. For the first nine months of 2010, trust department income was $3.8 million, up $69 thousand from the prior year.

The total of fees for other services to customers plus other income were $2.6 million in the third quarter of 2010 compared to $3.0 the same period in 2009. The net result reflects growth in customer accounts and increased transactions, offset by the impact of new regulations limiting overdraft fee income that took effect in the third quarter of 2010. For the first nine months of 2010, fees for other services to customers plus other income were $8.1 million, down from $9.9 million. This decline reflects industry trends in overdraft fees noted above as well as the elimination of uncertainties regarding the collectability of certain accruals in 2009, which boosted income in that period.

Index

Noninterest Expenses

Total noninterest expenses were $19.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $18.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The increase was entirely due to a $652 thousand increase in other real estate expenses. There were no significant changes in the dollar levels of the other individual expense categories. The two largest expense categories, salaries and benefits and net occupancy expenses were down $140 thousand and up $66 thousand, respectively, in the third quarter of 2010 compared to the year ago quarter. For the first nine months of 2010, total noninterest expenses were $58.3 million, compared to $57.5 million for the prior year period.

As noted, salaries and employee benefits decreased $140 thousand to $6.6 million for the third quarter of 2010 versus the prior year. The relatively flat compensation costs reflect the conclusion of the Company’s major branch expansion program and the hiring associated with that. Full time equivalent headcount was 720 as of September 30, 2010, compared to 727 as of September 30, 2009 and 737 as of June 30, 2010. For the first nine months of 2010, salaries and employee benefits were $19.9 million, flat with the prior year period. Net occupancy expense increased $66 thousand to $3.5 million during the third quarter of 2010 compared to the year-ago and were flat at $10.5 million for the first nine months. Equipment expense decreased by $63 thousand to $1.3 million in the third quarter of 2010. For the first nine months of 2010, equipment expenses were up $437 thousand to $4.2 million.

Professional services were down $112 thousand to $1.2 million for the quarter, and were up $196 thousand for the first nine months of 2010. Outsourced services were flat on both a quarterly and year-to-date basis. ORE expenses increased by $652 thousand to $1.4 million for the third quarter of 2010 as compared to the prior year period, and were up $2.6 million for the first nine months of 2010, reflecting higher ORE levels. Advertising expenses decreased by $159 thousand to $583 thousand in the third quarter of 2010 compared to the prior year, and were down $443 thousand versus the prior year. These declines reflect fewer branch openings and more targeted marketing efforts overall. Insurance costs were up $70 thousand to $1.6 million in the third quarter of 2010. In the second quarter of 2009, a one-time special FDIC assessment of $1.7 million was included in insurance costs. For the first nine months of 2010, insurance costs were down $1.6 million.

Income Taxes

In the third quarter of 2010, TrustCo recognized income tax expense of $3.2 million as compared to $4.8 million for the same period in 2009. The effective tax rates were 27.4% and 37.7% for the third quarters of 2010 and 2009, respectively. The decline in the effective tax rate for 2010 is due to the resolution of open tax years in the Company’s favor and the positive impact on the Company’s New York deferred tax liability due to the approval of the New York State budget, which included a provision that reduced the Company’s future tax liability. The tax expense on the Company’s income was different than tax expense at the statutory rate of 35%, due to tax exempt income, the effect of state income taxes, and in the case of the third quarter of 2010, the items previously noted. In the first nine months of 2010, TrustCo recognized income tax expense of $11.1 million as compared to $10.4 million for the same period in 2009. The effective tax rates were 33.2% and 34.7% for the first nine months of 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Index

Capital Resources

Consistent with its long-term goal of operating a sound and profitable financial organization, TrustCo strives to maintain strong capital ratios. New issues of equity securities have not been required since traditionally, most of its capital requirements are met through capital retention.

Total shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2010 was $261.2 million, compared to $245.7 million at December 31, 2009. TrustCo declared a dividend of $0.065625 per share in the third quarter of 2010, a 5% increase over the immediately preceding quarter. This results in a dividend payout ratio of 60.5% based on third quarter 2010 earnings per share of $0.109.

The Company achieved the following ratios as of September 30, 2010 and 2009:

	September 30,		Minimum Regulatory
	2010	2009	Guidelines
Tier 1 risk adjusted capital	12.50%	12.45%	4.00%

Total risk adjusted capital	13.76%	13.71%	8.00%

In addition, at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the consolidated equity to total assets ratio (excluding the mark to market effect of securities available for sale) was 6.71%, compared to a minimum regulatory requirement of 4.00%.

Critical Accounting Policies:

Pursuant to SEC guidance, management of the Company is encouraged to evaluate and disclose those accounting policies judged to be critical policies - those most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results, and that require management’s most difficult subjective or complex judgments.

Management considers the accounting policy relating to the allowance for loan losses to be a critical accounting policy given the inherent uncertainty in evaluating the levels of the allowance required to cover the inherent risk of losses in the portfolio and the material effect that such judgments can have on the results of operations. Included in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K is a description of the significant accounting policies that are utilized by the Company in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Management's Discussion and Analysis

STATISTICAL DISCLOSURE

I. DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS, LIABILITIES AND SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY;

INTEREST RATES AND INTEREST DIFFERENTIAL

The following table summarizes the component distribution of average balance sheet, related interest income and expense and the average annualized yields on interest earning assets and annualized rates on interest bearing liabilities of TrustCo (adjusted for tax equivalency) for each of the reported periods. Nonaccrual loans are included in loans for this analysis. The average balances of securities available for sale and held-to-maturity are calculated using amortized costs for these securities. The average balance of trading securities is calculated using fair value for these securities. Included in the average balance of shareholders' equity is unrealized appreciation, net of tax, in the available for sale portfolio of $3.5 million in 2010 and $2.5 million in 2009. The subtotals contained in the following table are the arithmetic totals of the items contained in that category. Increases and decreases in interest income and expense due to both rate and volume have been allocated to the categories of variances (volume and rate) based on the percentage relationship of such variances to each other.

Management's Discussion and Analysis

STATISTICAL DISCLOSURE

I. DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS, LIABILITIES AND SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY;

INTEREST RATES AND INTEREST DIFFERENTIAL

The following table summarizes the component distribution of average balance sheet, related interest income and expense and the average annualized yields on interest earning assets and annualized rates on interest bearing liabilities of TrustCo (adjusted for tax equivalency) for each of the reported periods. Nonaccrual loans are included in loans for this analysis. The average balances of securities available for sale and held-to-maturity are calculated using amortized costs for these securities. The average balance of trading securities is calculated using fair value for these securities. Included in the average balance of shareholders' equity is unrealized appreciation, net of tax, in the available for sale portfolio of $2.1 million in 2010 and $2.2 million in 2009. The subtotals contained in the following table are the arithmetic totals of the items contained in that category. Increases and decreases in interest income and expense due to both rate and volume have been allocated to the categories of variances (volume and rate) based on the percentage relationship of such variances to each other.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

As detailed in the Annual Report to Shareholders as of December 31, 2009 the Company is subject to interest rate risk as its principal market risk. As noted in detail throughout this Management’s Discussion and Analysis for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010, the Company continues to respond to changes in interest rates in a fashion to position the Company to meet short term earning goals and to also allow the Company to respond to changes in interest rates in the future. Consequently, for the third quarter of 2010, the Company had average balance of federal funds sold and other short-term investments of $403.9 million compared to $149.4 million in the third quarter of 2009. As investment opportunities present themselves, management plans to invest funds from the federal funds sold and other short-term investment portfolio into the securities available-for-sale, securities held-to-maturity and loan portfolios.

Item 4.

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 and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report.

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”)) designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Based upon this evaluation of those disclosure controls and procedures, the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer of the Company concluded, as of the end of the period covered by this report, that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files and submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required.

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Further, no evaluation of a cost-effective system of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, will be detected.

There have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

None.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There were no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, other than as set forth below:

Financial reform legislation recently enacted by Congress will, among other things, eliminate the Office of Thrift Supervision, tighten capital standards, create a new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and result in new laws and regulations that are expected to increase our costs of operations.

On July 21, 2010, the President signed into law the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), which will significantly change the current bank regulatory structure and affect the lending, deposit, investment, trading and operating activities of financial institutions and their holding companies. The Dodd-Frank Act requires various federal agencies to adopt a broad range of new implementing rules and regulations and to prepare numerous studies and reports for Congress. The federal agencies are given significant discretion in drafting the implementing rules and regulations, and consequently, many of the details and much of the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act may not be known for many months or years.

Among the changes contained in the Dodd-Frank Act is the elimination of the Office of Thrift Supervision, which is our primary federal regulator. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the primary federal regulator for national banks) will become the primary federal regulator of the Bank, and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”) will have exclusive authority to regulate all bank and thrift holding companies and will thus become the primary federal regulator of the Company. These changes to our regulators will occur on the transfer date, which is expected to be one year from the enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act (unless extended by up to nine months).

Index

Among the Dodd-Frank Act’s significant regulatory changes, it creates a new financial consumer protection agency, the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (the “Bureau”), that will have the authority to issue new consumer protection regulations and revise existing regulations in many areas of consumer compliance. These new and revised rules may increase our regulatory compliance burden and costs and restrict the financial products and services we offer to our customers. Moreover, the Dodd-Frank Act permits states to adopt stricter consumer protection laws and state attorney generals may enforce consumer protection rules issued by the Bureau. The Bureau has examination and enforcement authority over all banks and savings institutions with more than $10 billion in assets. Institutions such as the Bank with $10 billion or less in assets will continued to be examined for compliance with the consumer laws by their primary bank regulators.

The Dodd-Frank Act also imposes more stringent capital requirements on holding companies. These restrictions will limit our future capital strategies. Further, savings and loan holding companies such as the Company have not previously been subject to capital requirements, but under the Dodd-Frank Act, savings and loan holding companies will become subject to the same capital requirements as bank holding companies (although not until five years from the date of enactment). In addition, international banking industry regulators have largely agreed upon significant changes in the regulatory capital requirements for banks and their holding companies. The new international rules, known as “Basel III,” generally increase the capital required to be held and narrow the types of instruments that will qualify as capital. The Basel III requirements will be phased in over a number of years, but they are not automatically applicable to the Company or U.S. financial institutions generally. Rather, the requirements must be implemented by regulations adopted by the federal banking agencies. It is not known to what extent the Company’s regulators will incorporate elements of Basel III into new capital regulations or to what extent those regulations may be applicable to the Company or the Bank.

The Dodd Frank Act codified the Federal Reserve’s “source of strength” doctrine under which a holding company must serve as a source of financial strength for its depository institution subsidiaries; savings and loan holding companies such as the Company will become subject to the source of strength requirements under the Dodd-Frank Act.

The Dodd-Frank Act will require publicly traded companies to give stockholders a non-binding vote on executive compensation and so-called “golden parachute” payments, and authorizes the Securities and Exchange Commission to promulgate rules that would allow stockholders to nominate their own candidates using a company’s proxy materials. The legislation also directs the Federal Reserve to promulgate rules prohibiting excessive compensation paid to bank holding company executives, regardless of whether the company is publicly traded or not.
