The US Treasury securities are pledged as collateral to the State of California to meet regulatory requirements related to the Bank’s trust operations.

The table below indicates, as of September 30, 2015 the gross unrealized losses and fair values of our investments, aggregated by investment category and length of time that the individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position.

	Securities with Unrealized Loss at September 30, 2015
	Less than 12 months					12 months or more				Total
(dollars in thousands)	Fair Value			Unrealized Loss		Fair Value			Unrealized Loss	Fair Value		Unrealized Loss
FNMA and FHLB Agency notes	$	—	$	—		$	—	$	—	$	—	$	—
Agency mortgage backed securities		20,268		(188	)		—		—		20,268		(188)
Total temporarily impaired securities	$	20,268	$	(188	)	$	—	$	—	$	20,268	$	(188)

Unrealized losses on FNMA and FHLB agency notes and agency mortgage-backed securities have not been recognized into income because the issuer bonds are of high credit quality, management does not intend to sell and it is not more likely than not that management would be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery, and the decline in fair value is largely due to changes in interest rates. The fair value is expected to recover as the bonds approach maturity.

The scheduled maturities of securities AFS and the related weighted average yields were as follows as of September 30, 2015:

(dollars in thousands)	Less than 1 Year			1 Through 5 years			5 Through 10 Years			After 10 Years			Total

Agency mortgage backed securities are excluded from the above table because such securities are not due at a single maturity date. The weighted average yield of the agency mortgage backed securities as of September 30, 2015 was 2.29%.
