At December 31, 2011, there were eight state and municipal government securities in an unrealized loss position, of which one was in a continuous loss position for 12 months or more. The unrealized losses on state and municipal securities were caused by interest rate changes or widening of market spreads subsequent to the purchase of the individual securities. Management monitors published credit ratings of these securities for adverse changes. As of December 31, 2011 none of the rated obligations of state and local government entities held by the Company had an adverse credit rating. Because the credit quality of these securities are investment grade and the Company does not intend to sell these securities nor does the Company consider it more likely than not that it will be required to sell these securities before the recovery of amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2011. At December 31, 2011, there were 35 U.S. government agency and government-sponsored enterprise mortgage-backed securities & collateralized mortgage obligations securities in an unrealized loss position, of which two were in a continuous loss position for 12 months or more. The decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates relative to where these investments fall within the yield curve and their individual characteristics. Because the Company does not intend to sell these securities nor does the Company consider it more likely than not that it will be required to sell these securities before the recovery of amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2011. At December 31, 2011, there was one other security, a mortgage-backed securities fund in a continuous unrealized loss position for 12 months or more. The decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates and the additional risk premium investors are demanding for investment securities with these characteristics. The Company does not consider this investment to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2011 as it has the intent and ability to hold the investment for sufficient time to allow for recovery in the market value. Securities Deemed to be Other-Than-Temporarily Impaired During 2011, the Company determined that one of its state and municipal securities with a par amount of $3.0 million was other-than-temporarily impaired due to it maturing during the period without repaying the principal amount. The defaulted security was issued in 2008 by a municipality located in the state of Washington. In accordance with ASC 320-10-35, the Company determined that the entire amount of the other-than-temporary impairment was credit-related as the present value of the expected future cash flows for the defaulted security was zero. The significant inputs used to determine the expected future cash flows were the default on principal repayment and there being no insurance on the defaulted security. The credit-related other-than-temporary impairment of $3.0 million was recorded in the consolidated statements of income.
