Maintaining investment quality is a primary objective of the Company's investment policy which, subject to certain limited exceptions, prohibits the purchase of any investment security below a Moody's Investors Service or Standard & Poor's rating of A. At December 31, 2013, 89.0% of the portfolio was rated AAA as compared to 92.2% at December 31, 2012. 1.9% of the portfolio was rated below A or unrated on December 31, 2013. The Company and its subsidiaries, collectively, did not hold securities of any single issuer, excluding U.S. Treasury and U.S. Agencies, that exceeded 10% of shareholders' equity at December 31, 2013.

The book value of securities, both available for sale and held to maturity, pledged to secure public and trust deposits, and certain Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings was $110,780,000 at December 31, 2013 and $94,206,000 at December 31, 2012.

The Company realized $289,000 of gross investment security gains and $85,000 of investment security losses in 2013, and $12,000 of gross investment gains and no investment security losses in 2012, and $358,000 of gross investment losses and no investment security gains in 2011. On a net basis, the realized gain for 2013 was $135,000 after factoring in tax expense of $69,000, the realized gain for 2012 was $8,000 after factoring in tax expense of $4,000, the realized loss for 2011 was $236,000, after factoring the tax benefit of $122,000. Proceeds from sales of investment securities available for sale were $11.2 million for 2013, $4.2 million for 2012, and $16.5 million during 2011.

The following table sets forth the contractual maturity distribution of the investment securities, cost basis and fair market values, and the weighted average yield for each type and range of maturity as of December 31, 2013. Yields are not presented on a tax-equivalent basis, but are based upon the cost basis and are weighted for the scheduled maturity. The Company's consolidated investment securities portfolio had an effective duration of approximately 3.51 years. The weighted average expected maturity for available for sale securities at December 31, 2013 for U.S. Agency, U.S. Agency Mortgage-Backed and Corporate Bond securities was 3.84, 5.07 and 4.73 years, respectively. The weighted average expected maturity for held to maturity securities at December 31, 2013 for U.S. Agency Mortgage-Backed and Corporate Bonds/Taxable Municipals and other securities were 6.73 and 5.82 years.

The unrealized losses are primarily a result of increases in market yields from the time of purchase. In general, as market yields rise, the value of securities will decrease; as market yields fall, the fair value of securities will increase. There are 60 positions that are considered temporarily impaired at December 31, 2013. Management generally views changes in fair value caused by changes in interest rates as temporary; therefore, these securities have not been classified as other-than-temporarily impaired. Management has also concluded that based on current information we expect to continue to receive scheduled interest payments as well as the entire principal balance. Furthermore, management does not intend to sell these securities and does not believe it will be required to sell these securities before they recover in value or mature.
