CITY NATIONAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization
City National Corporation (the Corporation) is the holding company for City National Bank (the Bank). The Bank delivers banking, trust and investment services through 67 offices in Southern California, the San Francisco Bay area, Nevada and New York City. As of March 31, 2010, the Corporation had seven consolidated investment advisory affiliates and a noncontrolling interest in two other firms. The Corporation also has two unconsolidated subsidiaries, Business Bancorp Capital Trust I and City National Capital Trust I. Because the Bank comprises substantially all of the business of the Corporation, references to the Company mean the Corporation and the Bank together. The Corporation is approved as a financial holding company pursuant to the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999.
Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Corporation, its non-bank subsidiaries, the Bank and the Banks wholly owned subsidiaries, after the elimination of all material intercompany transactions. The Company has both redeemable and non-redeemable noncontrolling interest. A noncontrolling interest is the portion of equity in a subsidiary not attributable to a parent. Preferred stock of consolidated bank affiliates that is owned by third parties is reflected as Noncontrolling interest in the equity section of the consolidated balance sheets. Redeemable noncontrolling interest includes noncontrolling ownership interests that are redeemable at the option of the holder or outside the control of the issuer. The redeemable equity ownership interests of third parties in the Corporations investment advisory affiliates are not considered to be permanent equity and are reflected as Redeemable noncontrolling interest in the mezzanine section between liabilities and equity in the consolidated balance sheets. Noncontrolling interests share of subsidiary earnings is reflected as Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest in the consolidated statements of income.
The Companys investment management and wealth advisory affiliates are organized as limited liability companies. The Corporation generally owns a majority position in each affiliate and certain management members of each affiliate own the remaining shares. The Corporation has contractual arrangements with its affiliates whereby a percentage of revenue is allocable to fund affiliate operating expenses (operating share) while the remaining portion of revenue (distributable revenue) is allocable to the Corporation and the noncontrolling owners. All majority-owned affiliates that meet the prescribed criteria for consolidation are consolidated. In November 2009, the Company deconsolidated one of its affiliates, but retained a noncontrolling interest in that affiliate. The Corporations interests in two investment management affiliates in which it holds a noncontrolling share are accounted for using the equity method. Additionally, the Company has various interests in variable interest entities (VIEs) that are not required to be consolidated. See Note 16 for a more detailed discussion on VIEs.
Use of Estimates
The Companys accounting and reporting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and practices in the financial services industry. To prepare the financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management must make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the reporting period. Circumstances and events that differ significantly from those underlying the Companys estimates and assumptions could cause actual financial results to differ from those estimates. The material estimates included in the financial statements relate to the allowance for loan and lease losses, the reserve for off-balance sheet credit commitments, valuation of stock options and restricted stock, income taxes, goodwill and intangible asset impairment, securities available-for-sale impairment, private equity and alternative investment impairment, valuation of assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations, valuation of noncontrolling interest and the valuation of financial assets and liabilities reported at fair value.
Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
The Company has applied its critical accounting policies and estimation methods consistently in all periods presented in these financial statements. The allowance for loan and lease losses reflects managements ongoing assessment of the credit quality of the Companys portfolio, which is affected by a broad range of economic factors. Additional factors affecting the provision include net loan charge-offs, nonaccrual loans, specific reserves, risk-rating migration and changes in the portfolio size. The Companys estimates and assumptions are expected to change as changes in market conditions and the Companys portfolio occur in subsequent periods.
Basis of Presentation
The Company is on the accrual basis of accounting for income and expenses. The results of operations reflect any adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed in this Form 10-Q, and which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. In accordance with the usual practice of banks, assets and liabilities of individual trust, agency and fiduciary funds have not been included in the financial statements. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
The results for the 2010 interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. The Company has not made any significant changes in its critical accounting policies or in its estimates and assumptions from those disclosed in its 2009 Annual Report other than the adoption of new accounting pronouncements and other authoritative guidance that became effective for the Company on January 1, 2010. Refer to Accounting Pronouncements below for discussion of accounting pronouncements adopted in 2010.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified or restated to conform to the current period presentation.
Accounting Pronouncements
During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the following accounting pronouncements applicable to the Company were issued or became effective:
· |
|
In December 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2009-16, which codifies FASB Statement No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets into Codification Topic 860. ASU 2009-16 represents a revision to former FASB Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. ASU 2009-16 expands required disclosures about transfers of financial assets and the risks associated with a transferors continuing involvement with transferred assets. It also removes the concept of qualifying special-purpose entity from U.S. GAAP. The new guidance became effective for the Company on January 1, 2010. Adoption of the new guidance did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements. |
|
|
|
· |
|
In December 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-17, which codifies FASB Statement No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R), into Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 810, Consolidations (ASC 810). ASU 2009-17 revises former FASB Interpretation No. 46 (Revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. The revised guidance requires, among other things, that an entity perform both a quantitative and qualitative analysis to determine if it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE and therefore required to consolidate the VIE. The qualitative analysis includes determining whether an entity has the power to direct the most significant activities of the VIE. The amended guidance also requires consideration of related party relationships in the determination of the primary beneficiary of a VIE and enhanced disclosures about an enterprises involvement with a VIE. The new guidance became effective for the Company on January 1, 2010. Adoption of the new guidance did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements. |
Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) |

|
|
|
· |
|
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820), Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements (ASU 2010-06). ASU 2010-06 enhances disclosure requirements under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC 820), to include disclosure of transfers in and out of Level 1 and 2, and detail of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. The ASU also provides clarification of existing disclosure requirements pertaining to the level of disaggregation used in fair value measurements, and disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques used for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The new guidance became effective for the Company on January 1, 2010. Adoption of the new guidance did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements. |
|
|
|
· |
|
In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09, Subsequent Events (Topic 855), Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements (ASU 2010-09). ASU 2010-09 addresses the interaction of the requirements of Subtopic 855-10 with the SECs reporting requirements. The amendments in the ASU provide that an entity that is an SEC filer is required to evaluate subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued. An entity that is an SEC filer is not required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. The ASU also refines the scope of disclosure requirements pertaining to revised financial statements. The new guidance became effective for the Company upon issuance. Adoption of the new guidance did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements. |
|
|
|
· |
|
In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-10, Consolidation (Topic 810), Amendments for Certain Investment Funds (ASU 2010-10). ASU 2010-10 defers the effective date of the consolidation provisions contained in ASU 2009-17 for a reporting entitys interest in an entity: (1) that has attributes of an investment company; or (2) for which it is industry practice to apply measurement principles for financial reporting purposes that are consistent with those followed by investment companies. The ASU also clarifies how a related partys interests in an entity should be considered when evaluating the criteria for determining whether a decision maker or service provider fee represents a variable interest. In addition, the ASU clarifies that a quantitative calculation should not be the sole basis for evaluating whether a decision makers or service providers fee is a variable interest. The new guidance became effective for the Company on January 1, 2010. Adoption of the new guidance did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements. |
|
|
|
· |
|
In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 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 (ASU 2010-18). ASU 2010-18 applies to loans that are currently accounted for under ASC Topic 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality (ASC 310-30), as part of a pool of loans that, when acquired, had deteriorated in credit quality. Under the guidance, modification of a loan that is part of a pool accounted for under ASC 310-30 should not result in removal of the loan from the pool. Such modifications would include those that would otherwise qualify as a troubled debt restructuring had the loan not been part of a pool. ASU 2010-18 is effective for any modifications of a loan accounted for within a pool in the first interim reporting period ending after July 15, 2010, and will be applied prospectively. Early application is permitted as long as an entity has not issued financial statements in that fiscal year. The Company elected to early adopt ASU 2010-18 effective with March 31, 2010 reporting. Adoption of the new guidance did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements. |
Note 2. Business Combination
On December 18, 2009, the Bank acquired the banking operations of Imperial Capital Bank (ICB) in a purchase and assumption agreement with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Excluding the effects of acquisition accounting adjustments, the Company acquired approximately $3.25 billion in assets and assumed $3.09 billion in liabilities. The Bank acquired most of ICBs assets, including loans and other real estate owned (OREO) with a fair value of $1.86 billion and $58.8 million, respectively, and assumed deposits of $2.08 billion. The Bank received approximately $70.8 million in cash from the FDIC and recorded a receivable for an additional $5.3 million expected to be received in 2010. The acquisition of ICB added three new bank branches in California.
Note 2. Business Combinations (Continued)
In connection with the acquisition, the Bank entered into a loss sharing agreement with the FDIC under which the FDIC will reimburse the Bank for 80 percent of eligible losses up to $649 million with respect to covered assets and 95 percent of eligible losses in excess of $649 million. Covered assets include acquired loans (covered loans) and OREO (covered OREO) that are covered under the loss sharing agreement with the FDIC. The term of the loss share agreement is ten years for single family residential loans and seven years for all other loans. The expected reimbursements under the loss sharing agreement were recorded as an indemnification asset at their estimated fair value of $380.7 million at the acquisition date. The difference between the fair value of the FDIC indemnification asset and the undiscounted cash flow the Company expects to collect from the FDIC is accreted into noninterest income.
In the last three quarters of the seventh year, the Company has the right, without FDIC consent, to sell up to $400 million of the remaining covered loans provided the properties securing those loans have a current independent appraisal which supports a loan-to-value ratio of 75 percent or more of the covered loans book value.
The Bank recognized a gain of $38.2 million on the acquisition in 2009. The gain represents the amount by which the fair value of the assets acquired and consideration received from the FDIC exceeds the liabilities assumed.
Note 3. Fair Value Measurements
ASC 820 defines fair value for financial reporting purposes as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly market transaction between market participants at the measurement date (reporting date). Fair value is based on an exit price in the principal market or most advantageous market in which the reporting entity could transact.
For each asset and liability required to be reported at fair value, management has identified the unit of account and valuation premise to be applied for purposes of measuring fair value. The unit of account is the level at which an asset or liability is aggregated or disaggregated for purposes of applying fair value measurement. The valuation premise is a concept that determines whether an asset is measured on a standalone basis or in combination with other assets. The Company measures its assets and liabilities on a standalone basis then aggregates assets and liabilities with similar characteristics for disclosure purposes.
Fair Value Hierarchy
Management employs market standard valuation techniques in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities. Inputs used in valuation techniques are based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The inputs used in valuation techniques are prioritized as follows:
Level 1Quoted market prices in an active market for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2Observable inputs including quoted prices (other than Level 1) in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities and default rates, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entitys own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available.
If the determination of fair value measurement for a particular asset or liability is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Managements assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability measured.
Note 3. Fair Value Measurements (Continued)
The Company records securities available-for-sale, trading securities and derivative contracts at fair value on a recurring basis. Certain other assets such as impaired loans, OREO, goodwill, customer-relationship intangibles and private equity investments are recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Nonrecurring fair value measurements typically involve assets that are periodically evaluated for impairment and for which any impairment is recorded in the period in which the remeasurement is performed.
The following tables summarize assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009 by level in the fair value hierarchy:

At March 31, 2010, $4.05 billion, or approximately 20 percent, of the Companys total assets were recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, compared to $4.51 billion or 21 percent at December 31, 2009, and $3.05 billion or 18 percent at March 31, 2009. The majority of these financial assets were valued using Level 1 or Level 2 inputs. Less than a quarter of 1 percent of total assets were measured using Level 3 inputs. Approximately $19.6 million, $14.6 million and $17.3 million of the Companys total liabilities at March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively, were recorded at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 1 or Level 2 inputs. At March 31, 2010, $226.5 million, or approximately 1 percent of the Companys total assets, were recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, compared to $293.2 million or 1 percent at December 31, 2009, and $156.8 million or less than 1 percent at March 31, 2009. These assets were measured using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs. There were no transfers of assets or liabilities between Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Level 3 assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are CDO senior notes and CDO income notes for which the market is inactive. The fair value of these securities is determined using an internal cash flow model that incorporates managements assumptions about risk-adjusted discount rates, prepayment expectations, projected cash flows and collateral performance. These assumptions are not directly observable in the market. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are reported as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) in the consolidated balance sheets. Activity in Level 3 assets measured on a recurring basis for the three-months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 is summarized in the following table:

Level 3 assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include certain collateral dependent impaired loans, OREO for which fair value is not solely based on market observable inputs, and private equity and alternative investments. Non-observable inputs related to valuing loans and OREO may include adjustments to external appraised values based on an internally generated discounted cash flow analysis or managements assumptions about market trends or other factors that are not directly observable. Private equity and alternative investments do not have readily determinable fair values. These investments are carried at cost and evaluated for impairment on a quarterly basis. Due to the lack of readily determinable fair values for these investments, the impairment assessment is based primarily on a review of investment performance and the likelihood that the capital invested would be recovered.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
A financial instrument is broadly defined as cash, evidence of an ownership interest in another entity, or a contract that imposes a contractual obligation on one entity and conveys a corresponding right to a second entity to require delivery or exchange of a financial instrument. The table below summarizes the estimated fair values for the Companys financial instruments as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009. The disclosure does not include estimated fair value amounts for assets and liabilities which are not defined as financial instruments but which have significant value. These assets and liabilities include the value of customer-relationship intangibles, goodwill, private equity and affordable housing investments carried at cost, other assets, deferred taxes and other liabilities. Accordingly, the total of the fair values presented does not represent the underlying value of the Company.
Note 3. Fair Value Measurements (Continued)
Following is a description of the methods and assumptions used in estimating the fair values for each class of financial instrument:
Cash and due from banks, Due from banksinterest bearing and Federal funds sold For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Securities available-for-sale and Trading securities For securities held as available-for-sale, the fair value is determined by quoted market prices, where available, or on observable market inputs appropriate for the type of security. If quoted market prices or observable market inputs are not available, discounted cash flows may be used to determine an appropriate fair value. Fair value for trading securities, with the exception of CDO income notes, are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. The fair value of CDO income notes is determined using a discounted cash flow model.
Loans and leases Loans are not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Nonrecurring fair value adjustments are periodically recorded on impaired loans that are measured for impairment based on the fair value of collateral. Due to the lack of activity in the secondary market for the types of loans in the Companys portfolio, a model-based approach is used for determining the fair value of loans for purposes of the disclosures in the table below. The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting future cash flows using discount rates that incorporate the Companys assumptions concerning current market yields, credit risk and liquidity premiums. Loan cash flow projections are based on contractual loan terms adjusted for the impact of current interest rate levels on borrower behavior, including prepayments. Loan prepayment assumptions are based on industry standards for the type of loans being valued. Projected cash flows are discounted using yield curves based on current market conditions. Yield curves are constructed by product type using the Banks loan pricing model for like-quality credits. The discount rates used in the Companys model represent the rates the Bank would offer to current borrowers for like-quality credits. These rates could be different from what other financial institutions could offer for these loans.
Covered loans Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model based on assumptions about the amount and timing of principal and interest payments, principal prepayments and estimates of principal defaults, loss given default and current market rates.
Derivative contracts The fair value of non-exchange traded (over-the-counter) derivatives are obtained from third party market sources. The Company provides client data to the third party source for purposes of calculating the credit valuation component of the fair value measurement of client derivative contracts. The fair values of interest rate contracts include interest receivable and payable and cash collateral, if any.
Deposits The fair value of demand and interest checking deposits, savings deposits, and certain money market accounts is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is determined by discounting expected future cash flows using the rates offered by the Bank for deposits of similar type and remaining maturity at the measurement date. This value is compared to the termination value of each CD given the banks standard early withdrawal penalties. The fair value reported is the higher of the discounted present value of each CD and the termination value after the recovery of prepayment penalties. The Bank reviews pricing for its CD products weekly. This review gives consideration to market pricing for products of similar type and maturity offered by other financial institutions.
Federal funds purchased, Securities sold under repurchase agreements and Other short-term borrowings The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Structured securities sold under repurchase agreements The fair value of structured repurchase agreements is based on market pricing for synthetic instruments with the same term and structure. These values are validated against dealer quotes for similar instruments.
Subordinated and long-term debt The fair value of subordinated and long-term debt is obtained through third-party pricing sources.
Note 3. Fair Value Measurements (Continued)
Commitments to extend credit The fair value of these commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. The Company does not make fixed-rate loan commitments.

Note 4. Investment Securities (Continued)
Impairment Assessment
The Company performs a quarterly assessment of the debt and equity securities in its investment portfolio that have an unrealized loss to determine whether the decline in the fair value of these securities below their cost is other-than-temporary. Impairment is considered other-than-temporary when it becomes probable that an investor will be unable to recover the cost of an investment. The Companys impairment assessment takes into consideration factors such as the extent to which the market value has been less than cost; the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer including events specific to the issuer or industry; defaults or deferrals of scheduled interest, principal or dividend payments; external credit ratings and recent downgrades; and the Company does not intend to sell the security and it is not more likely than not it will be required to sell the security prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis. If a decline in fair value is judged to be other than temporary, the cost basis of the individual security is written down to fair value which then becomes the new cost basis. The new cost basis is not adjusted for subsequent recoveries in fair value.
In accordance with ASC 320-35, InvestmentsDebt and Equity SecuritiesSubsequent Measurement, when there are credit losses associated with an impaired debt security and the Company does not have the intent to sell the security and it is more likely than not that it will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis, the Company will separate the amount of the impairment into the amount that is credit-related and the amount related to non-credit factors. The credit-related impairment is recognized in Net impairment loss recognized in earnings in the consolidated statements of income. The non-credit-related impairment is recognized in AOCI.
Securities Deemed to be Other-Than-Temporarily Impaired
Through the impairment assessment process, the Company determined that certain investments were other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2010. The Company recorded credit loss impairment in earnings on available-for-sale securities of $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The $14.2 million non-credit portion of impairment recognized at March 31, 2010 was recorded in AOCI. The Company recorded a $12.0 million impairment loss in earnings on securities available-for-sale for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Note 4. Investment Securities (Continued)
Non-Agency CMOs
During the first quarter of 2010, the Company identified certain non-agency collateralized mortgage obligation securities (CMOs) that were considered to be other-than-temporarily impaired because the present value of expected cash flows was less than cost. These CMOs have a fixed interest rate for an initial period after which they become variable-rate instruments with annual rate resets. For purposes of projecting future cash flows, the current fixed coupon was used through the reset date for each security. The prevailing LIBOR/Treasury forward curve as of the measurement date was used to project all future floating-rate cash flows based on the characteristics of each security. Other factors considered in the projection of future cash flows include the current level of subordination from other CMO classes, anticipated prepayment rates, cumulative defaults and loss given default. The Company concluded that the shortfall in expected cash flows represented a credit loss and recognized impairment losses in earnings totaling $1.0 million on its investments in CMOs year-to-date. The remaining other-than-temporary impairment for these securities was recognized in AOCI. This non-credit portion of other-than-temporary impairment is attributed to external market conditions, primarily the lack of liquidity in these securities and increases in interest rates.
The following tables provide a summary of the gross unrealized losses and fair value of investment securities aggregated by investment category and length of time that the securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position as of March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009. The tables include investments for which an other-than-temporary impairment has not been recognized in earnings, along with investments that had a non-credit related impairment recognized in AOCI:

At March 31, 2010, the Company had 88 debt securities in an unrealized loss position. The debt securities in an unrealized loss position include 1 U.S. Treasury note, 9 Federal agency debt securities, 8 Federal agency MBS, 17 Federal agency CMOs, 24 private label CMOs, 26 state and municipal securities and 3 other debt securities.
The largest component of the unrealized loss at March 31, 2010 was $24.2 million related to non-agency collateralized mortgage obligations. The Company monitors the performance of the mortgages underlying these bonds. Although there has been some additional deterioration in collateral performance during the first quarter of 2010 due to weakness in the housing market, the Company only holds the most senior tranches of each issue which provides protection against defaults. The Company attributes the unrealized loss on CMOs held largely to the current absence of liquidity in the credit markets and to increases in interest rates. Other than the $1.0 million credit loss discussed in Non-Agency CMOs above, the Company expects to receive all contractual principal and interest payments due on its CMO debt securities. Additionally, the Company does not intend to sell the securities, and it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell the securities before it recovers the cost basis of its investment. The mortgages in these asset pools are relatively large and have been made to borrowers with strong credit history and significant equity invested in their homes. They are well diversified geographically. Nonetheless, significant further weakening of economic fundamentals coupled with significant increases in unemployment and substantial deterioration in the value of high-end residential properties could extend distress to this borrower population. This could increase default rates and put additional pressure on property values. Should these conditions occur, the value of these securities could decline and trigger the recognition of further other-than-temporary impairment charges.
Other debt securities include the Companys investments in highly rated corporate debt and collateralized bond obligations backed by trust preferred securities (CDOs) issued by a geographically diverse pool of small- and medium-sized financial institutions. Liquidity pressures in 2008 and in 2009 caused a general decline in the value of corporate debt. The CDOs held in securities available-for-sale at March 31, 2010 are the most senior tranches of each issue. The market for CDOs has been inactive since 2008, therefore, the fair values of these securities were determined using an internal pricing model that incorporates assumptions about discount rates in an illiquid market, projected cash flows and collateral performance. The CDOs had a $6.5 million unrealized loss at March 31, 2010 which the Company attributes to the illiquid credit markets. The CDOs have collateral that exceeds the outstanding debt by over 29 percent at March 31, 2010. Security valuations reflect the current and prospective performance of the issuers whose debt is contained in these asset pools. The Company expects to receive all contractual principal and interest payments due on its CDOs. Additionally, the Company does not intend to sell the securities, and it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell the securities before it recovers the cost basis of its investment.
The Company does not consider the debt securities in the table above to be other than temporarily impaired at March 31, 2010.
At December 31, 2009, total securities available-for-sale had a fair value of $4.31 billion, which included $1.69 billion of securities available-for-sale in an unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2009. This balance consists of $1.65 billion of temporarily impaired securities and $43.5 million of securities that had non-credit related impairment recognized in AOCI. At December 31, 2009, the Company had 155 debt securities in an unrealized loss position. The debt securities in an unrealized loss position included 1 U.S. Treasury bill, 15 Federal agency debt securities, 30 Federal agency MBS, 44 Federal agency CMOs, 29 private label CMOs, 32 state and municipal securities and 4 other debt securities.
At March 31, 2009, total securities available-for-sale had a fair value of $2.92 billion, which included $681.3 million of securities available-for-sale in an unrealized loss position as of March 31, 2009. At March 31, 2009, the Company had 148 debt securities and 1 mutual fund in an unrealized loss position. The debt securities in an unrealized loss position included 6 Federal agency securities, 9 Federal agency CMOs, 33 private label CMOs, 89 state and municipal securities and 11 other debt securities.
Note 4. Investment Securities (Continued)
The following table provides the expected remaining maturities of debt securities included in the securities portfolio as of March 31, 2010, except for mortgage-backed securities which are allocated according to the average life of expected cash flows. Average expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because mortgage debt issuers may have the right to repay obligations prior to contractual maturity.

Note 5. Other Investments
Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal Reserve Bank Stock
The Companys investment in stock issued by the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) and Federal Reserve (FRB) totaled $123.2 million at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009. Ownership of government agency securities is restricted to member banks, and the securities do not have readily determinable market values. The Company records investments in FHLB and FRB stock at cost in Other assets of the consolidated balance sheets and evaluates these investments for impairment.
At March 31, 2010, the Company held $97.3 million of FHLB stock. FHLB banks are cooperatives that provide products and services to member banks. The FHLB provides significant liquidity to the U.S. banking system through advances to its member banks in exchange for collateral. The purchase of stock is required in order to receive advances and other services. The Company completed an assessment of its investment in FHLB stock for impairment at March 31, 2010. Since 2009, the FHLB has experienced higher levels of other-than-temporary impairment in its investments in private label mortgage-backed securities due to continued weakness in the housing market. The FHLB has taken steps to preserve capital and increase the balance of restricted retained earnings available to protect members paid-in-capital from the effects of adverse credit events, and its capital-to-assets ratio was well above regulatory requirements at March 31, 2010. Additionally, the FHLB has access to a high level of government support to maintain liquidity and access to funding. The Company expects to recover the full amount invested in FHLB stock and does not consider its investment to be impaired at March 31, 2010.
Note 5. Other Investments (Continued)
Private Equity and Alternative Investments
The Company has ownership interests in a limited number of private equity, venture capital, real estate and hedge funds that are not publicly traded and do not have readily determinable fair values. These investments are carried at cost in the Other assets section of the consolidated balance sheets. The Companys investments in these funds totaled $37.4 million at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009. A summary of investments by fund type is provided below:

Management reviews these investments quarterly for impairment. The impairment assessment includes a review of the most recent financial statements and investment reports for each fund and discussions with fund management. An impairment loss is recognized if it is deemed probable that the Company will not recover the cost of an investment. The impairment loss is recognized in Other noninterest income in the consolidated income statements. The new cost basis of the investment is not adjusted for subsequent recoveries in value.
In the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company recognized impairment totaling $0.4 million on its investments in two private equity and one real estate fund. No impairment was recognized on private equity or alternative investments in the first quarter of 2009. The table below provides information as of March 31, 2010 on private equity and alternative investments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis due to the recognition of impairment:

The Companys lending activities are predominantly in California, and to a lesser extent, New York and Nevada. Excluding covered loans, at March 31, 2010, California represented 88 percent of total loans outstanding and Nevada and New York represented 2 percent and 4 percent, respectively. The remaining 6 percent of total loans outstanding represented other states. Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of clients are engaged in similar business activities, or activities in the same geographic region, or have similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic conditions. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion of the loan portfolio and credit performance depends on the economic stability of Southern California. Credit performance also depends, to a lesser extent, on economic conditions in the San Francisco Bay area, New York and Nevada.
Covered Loans
Covered loans represent loans acquired from the FDIC that are subject to a loss sharing agreement and were $1.80 billion as of March 31, 2010 and $1.85 billion at December 31, 2009. The following table reflects the carrying value of covered loans by loan type as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009:

The Company evaluated the acquired loans and concluded that all loans, with the exception of a small population of loans, would be accounted for under ASC 310-30. Loans are accounted for under ASC 310-30 when there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination and for which it is probable, at acquisition, that the Company would be unable to collect all contractually required payments. As of the December 18, 2009 acquisition date, the preliminary estimates of the contractually required payments receivable for all acquired impaired loans were $3.84 billion, the cash flows expected to be collected were $2.55 billion, and the fair value of the loans was $1.86 billion. These amounts were determined based on the estimated remaining life of the underlying loans, which included the effects of estimated prepayments. Interest income is recognized on acquired impaired loans through accretion of the difference between the carrying amount of the loans and their expected cash flows. There was no allowance for loan losses related to the acquired impaired loans as of March 31, 2010. Loans accounted for under ASC 310-30 are generally considered accruing and performing loans as the loans accrete interest income over the estimated life of the loan when cash flows are reasonably estimable. Accordingly,
Note 6. Loans, Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses, and Reserve for Off-Balance Sheet Credit Commitments (Continued)
acquired impaired loans that are contractually past due are still considered to be accruing and performing loans. If the timing and amount of future cash flows is not reasonably estimable, the loans may be classified as nonaccrual loans and interest income is not recognized until the timing and amount of future cash flows can be reasonably estimated. There were no nonaccrual covered loans at March 31, 2010.
Total covered loans of $1.80 billion as of March 31, 2010 consist of acquired impaired loans of $1.79 billion that are within the scope of ASC 310-30 and $9.0 million of acquired loans that are outside the scope of ASC 310-30. Changes in the carrying amount and accretable yield for acquired impaired loans were as follows for the period from January 1, 2010 through March 31, 2010:

Because of the short time period between the closing of the acquisition and year-end 2009, certain 2009 amounts related to the acquired impaired loans were preliminary estimates. In finalizing its analysis of these loans, the Company recorded adjustments to 2009 amounts that are reflected in the Other line of the above table.
The Company recorded an FDIC indemnification asset in December 2009 that represents the present value of the expected reimbursement from the FDIC related to expected losses on acquired loans and OREO. The FDIC indemnification asset was $325.4 million at March 31, 2010 and $380.7 million at December 31, 2009. See Note 2, Business Combination, for further discussion of the FDIC indemnification asset.

Note 6. Loans, Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses, and Reserve for Off-Balance Sheet Credit Commitments (Continued)
Nonaccrual loans were $330.0 million at March 31, 2010, $388.7 million at December 31, 2009 and $313.6 million at March 31, 2009. At March 31, 2010, there were $319.0 million of impaired loans included in nonaccrual loans, with an allowance allocation of $44.5 million. The remaining $11.0 million of nonaccrual loans at March 31, 2010 are loans under $500,000 that are not individually evaluated for impairment. Impaired loans with commitments of less than $500,000 are aggregated for the purpose of measuring impairment using historical loss factors as a means of measurement. At December 31, 2009, there were $375.7 million of impaired loans which had an allowance of $55.8 million allocated to them. At March 31, 2009, there were $303.7 million of impaired loans which had an allowance of $36.1 million allocated to them. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the average balance of total impaired loans was $347.4 million. Interest income is not recognized on impaired loans until the principal balances of these loans are paid off.
Troubled debt restructured loans were $17.1 million, before specific reserves of $2.2 million, at March 31, 2010. Troubled debt restructured loans were $11.2 million, before specific reserves of $1.0 million, at December 31, 2009. At March 31, 2009, the Company had no troubled debt restructured loans. There were no related commitments to lend additional funds on restructured loans at March 31, 2010.
Note 7. Other Real Estate Owned
At March 31, 2010, OREO was $135.6 million and included $77.5 million of covered OREO that was acquired in the acquisition of ICB and is covered by a loss sharing agreement with the FDIC. At December 31, 2009, OREO was $113.9 million and included $60.6 million of covered OREO. At March 31, 2009, OREO was $12.6 million. Excluding covered OREO, activity in OREO during the three months ended March 31, 2010 included additions of $21.1 million, offset by sales of $5.4 million. In the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company recognized valuation write-downs totaling $11.0 million on OREO.
Covered OREO expenses and valuation write-downs are recorded in the noninterest expense section of the consolidated statements of income. Under the loss sharing agreement, 80 percent of covered OREO expenses and valuation write-downs are reimbursable to the Company from the FDIC. The portion of these expenses that are reimbursable are recorded in FDIC loss sharing income, net in the noninterest income section of the consolidated statements of income.
Note 8. Shareholders Equity
There were no purchases by the Company of equity securities that are registered by the Company pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2010.
At March 31, 2010, the Corporation had 1.1 million shares of common stock reserved for issuance and 0.7 million shares of unvested restricted stock granted to employees and directors under share-based compensation programs.
On November 21, 2008, City National Corporation received aggregate proceeds of $400 million from the United States Department of the Treasury (Treasury) under the TARP Capital Purchase Program in exchange for 400,000 shares of cumulative perpetual preferred stock and a 10-year warrant to purchase up to 1,128,668 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $53.16 per share. The preferred stock and warrant were recorded in equity on a relative fair value basis at the time of issuance. The preferred stock was valued by calculating the present value of expected cash flows and the warrant was valued using an option valuation model. The allocated values of the preferred stock and warrant were approximately $389.9 million and $10.1 million, respectively. Cumulative dividends on the preferred stock were payable quarterly at the rate of 5 percent for the first five years and increasing to 9 percent thereafter. The warrant has a 10-year term and is immediately exercisable upon its issuance, with an exercise price, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, equal to $53.16 per share of the common stock.
In December 2009, the Corporation repurchased $200 million, or 200,000 shares, of the TARP preferred stock that it had sold to the Treasury. On March 3, 2010, the Corporation repurchased the remaining $200 million, or 200,000 shares, of TARP preferred stock. The repurchase on March 3, 2010 resulted in a one-time, after-tax, non-cash charge of $3.8 million.
In April 2010, the Corporation repurchased the warrant in full for $18.5 million.
Note 9. Earnings per Common Share
The Company applies the two-class method of computing basic and diluted EPS. Under the two-class method, EPS is determined for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The Company grants restricted shares under a share-based compensation plan that qualify as participating securities.
The computation of basic and diluted EPS is presented in the following table:

(1) Earnings allocated to common shareholders for basic and diluted EPS may differ under the two-class method as a result of adding common stock equivalents for options and warrants to dilutive shares outstanding, which alters the ratio used to allocate earnings to common shareholders and participating securities for the purposes of calculating diluted EPS.
The average price of the Companys common stock for the period is used to determine the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and common stock warrant. Antidilutive stock options and common stock warrant are not included in the calculation of basic or diluted EPS. There were approximately 2.7 million outstanding stock options and a 1.1 million warrant that were antidilutive for the three-months ended March 31, 2010. There were approximately 3.8 million outstanding stock options and a 1.1 million common stock warrant that were antidilutive for the same period in 2009.
Note 10. Share-Based Compensation
On March 31, 2010, the Company had one share-based compensation plan, the City National Corporation 2008 Omnibus Plan (the Plan), which was approved by the Companys shareholders on April 23, 2008. No new awards will be granted under predecessor plans. A description of the Plan is provided below. The compensation cost that has been recognized for all share-based awards was $3.9 million and $3.5 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company received $9.8 million and $0.1 million in cash for the exercise of stock options during the three-months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The tax benefit recognized for share-based compensation arrangements in equity was $1.4 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2010 compared to tax expense of $1.2 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2009.
Note 10. Share-Based Compensation (Continued)
Plan Description
The Plan permits the grant of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance share units, performance units and stock appreciation rights, or any combination thereof, to the Companys eligible employees and non-employee directors. No grants of performance shares, performance share units, performance units or stock appreciation rights had been made as of March 31, 2010. The purpose of the Plan is to promote the success of the Company by providing an additional means to attract, motivate, retain and reward key employees of the Company with awards and incentives for high levels of individual performance and improved financial performance of the Company, and to link non-employee director compensation to shareholder interests through equity grants. Stock option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Companys stock at the date of grant. These awards vest in four years and have 10-year contractual terms. Restricted stock awards granted under the Plan vest over a period of at least three years, as determined by the Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee (Committee). The participant is entitled to dividends and voting rights for all shares issued even though they are not vested. Restricted stock awards issued under predecessor plans vest over five years. The Plan provides for acceleration of vesting if there is a change in control (as defined in the Plan) or a termination of service, which may include disability or death. Unvested options are forfeited upon termination of employment, except for those instances noted above, and the case of the retirement of a retirement-age employee for options granted prior to January 31, 2006. The Company generally issues treasury shares upon share option exercises. All unexercised options expire 10 years from the grant date. At March 31, 2010 there were approximately 1.1 million shares available for future grants.
Fair Value
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option valuation methodology that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. The Company evaluates exercise behavior and values options separately for executive and non-executive employees. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Companys stock. The Company uses a 20-year look back period to calculate the volatility factor. The length of the look back period reduces the impact of the recent disruptions in the capital markets, and provides values that management believes are more representative of expected future volatility. The Company uses historical data to predict option exercise and employee termination behavior. The expected term of options granted is derived from historical exercise activity and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The dividend yield is equal to the dividend yield of the Companys stock at the time of the grant.
To estimate the fair value of stock option awards, the Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation method, which incorporates the assumptions summarized in the table below:

Using the Black-Scholes methodology, the weighted-average grant-date fair values of options granted during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were $16.86 and $6.47, respectively. The total intrinsic values of options exercised during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were $5.4 million and $22 thousand, respectively.

Note 11. Derivative Instruments
The following table summarizes the fair value and balance sheet classification of derivative instruments as of March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009. The notional amount of the contract is not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets, but is used as the basis for determining the amount of interest payments to be exchanged between the counterparties. If a counterparty fails to perform, the Companys counterparty credit risk is equal to the amount reported as a derivative asset.

Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments
As of March 31, 2010, the Company had $503.2 million notional amount of interest-rate swaps, of which $378.2 million were designated as fair value hedges and $125.0 million were designated as cash flow hedges. The positive fair value of the fair value hedges of $29.2 million resulted in the recognition of other assets and an increase in hedged deposits and borrowings of $27.2 million. The remaining $2.0 million of fair value represents net interest receivable. The net positive fair value of cash flow hedges of variable-rate loans of $2.0 million resulted in the recognition of other assets of $1.6 million and other comprehensive loss before taxes of $5.9 million. AOCI also includes a net deferred gain of $5.1 million related to cash flow hedges that were terminated prior to their maturity dates. The remaining $0.4 million of fair value represents net interest receivable.
Note 11. Derivative Instruments (Continued)
As of March 31, 2009, the Company had $712.5 million notional amount of interest-rate swaps, of which $387.5 million were designated as fair value hedges and $325.0 million were designated as cash flow hedges. The positive fair value of the fair value hedges of $38.1 million resulted in the recognition of other assets and an increase in hedged deposits and borrowings of $36.5 million. The remaining $1.6 million of fair value represents net interest receivable. The net positive fair value of cash flow hedges of variable-rate loans of $14.8 million resulted in the recognition of other assets of $13.9 million and other comprehensive income before taxes of $2.2 million. The remaining $0.9 million of fair value represents net interest receivable.
The Companys swap agreements require the deposit of cash or marketable debt securities as collateral based on certain risk thresholds. These requirements apply individually to the Corporation and to the Bank. Additionally, certain of the Companys swap agreements contain credit-risk-related contingent features. Under these agreements, the collateral requirements are based on the Companys credit rating from the major credit rating agencies. The amount of collateral required varies by counterparty based on a range of credit ratings that correspond with exposure thresholds established in the derivative agreements. If the credit rating on the Companys debt were to fall below the level associated with a particular exposure threshold and the derivatives with a counterparty are in a net liability position that exceeds that threshold, the counterparty could request immediate payment or delivery of collateral for the difference between the net liability amount and the exposure threshold. The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a net liability position on March 31, 2010 was $5.4 million. The Company was not required to deliver collateral because the net liability position did not exceed the exposure threshold amount at the Companys current credit rating.
The Companys interest-rate swaps had $7.6 million and $13.5 million of credit risk exposure at March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively. The credit exposure represents the cost to replace, on a present value basis and at current market rates, all contracts by trading counterparty having an aggregate positive market value, net of margin collateral received. The Company enters into master netting agreements with swap counterparties to mitigate credit risk. Under these agreements, the net amount due from or payable to each counterparty is settled on the contract payment date. Collateral valued at $13.0 million and $23.5 million had been received from swap counterparties at March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively. Additionally, the Company had delivered collateral valued at $1.1 million to a counterparty at March 31, 2010.
The periodic net settlement of interest-rate swaps is recorded as an adjustment to interest income or interest expense. The impact of interest-rate swaps on interest income and interest expense for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 is provided below:

Fair value and cash flow interest-rate swaps increased net interest income by $7.4 million and $6.0 million in the three-month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Changes in fair value of the effective portion of cash flow hedges are reported in AOCI. When the cash flows associated with the hedged item are realized, the gain or loss included in AOCI is recognized in Interest income on loans and leases, the same location in the consolidated statements of income as the income on the hedged item. The amount of gains on cash flow hedges reclassified from AOCI to interest income for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, was $3.0 million and $2.9 million, respectively. Within the next 12 months, $1.6 million of other comprehensive income is expected to be reclassified into interest income. Any ineffective portion of the changes of fair value of cash flow hedges is recognized immediately in Other noninterest income in the consolidated statements of income.
Note 11. Derivative Instruments (Continued)
The amount of after-tax loss on the change in fair value of cash flow hedges recognized in AOCI was $4.0 million (net of taxes of $2.5 million) at March 31, 2010, compared to an after-tax gain of $1.2 million (net of taxes of $1.0 million) at March 31, 2009.
The amount of hedge ineffectiveness on cash flow hedges was nominal at March 31, 2010.
Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments
Derivative contracts not designated as hedges are marked-to-market each reporting period with changes in fair value recorded as a part of Noninterest income in the consolidated statements of income.

Note 12. Income Taxes
The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties relating to uncertain tax positions as an income tax provision expense. The Company recognized approximately $35 thousand and $0.5 million of interest and penalties expense for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company had approximately $5.5 million, $5.5 million and $4.7 million of accrued interest and penalties as of March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively.
The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return and also file income tax returns in various state jurisdictions. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) completed its audits of the Company for the tax year 2008 resulting in no material financial statement impact. The Company is currently being audited by the IRS for 2009. The potential financial statement impact, if any, resulting from completion of these audits is expected to be minimal.
Subsequent to March 31, 2010, the Company and the California Franchise Tax Board closed its audits for the years 1998 through 2004 and settled litigation related to various refund claims and other pending matters under review. Under the terms of the settlement, the Company will receive $29 million in tax credits, which are expected to add approximately $19 million to the Companys net income in the second quarter of 2010.
From time to time, there may be differences in opinion with respect to the tax treatment accorded transactions. If a tax position which was previously recognized on the consolidated financial statements is no longer more likely than not to be sustained upon a challenge from the taxing authorities, the tax benefit from the tax position will be derecognized. As of March 31, 2010, the Company does not have any tax positions which dropped below a more likely than not threshold.
Note 13. Retirement Plans
The Company has a profit-sharing retirement plan with an Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k) feature covering eligible employees. Employer contributions are made annually into a trust fund and are allocated to participants based on their salaries. The profit sharing contribution requirement is based on a percentage of annual operating income subject to a percentage of salary cap. Eligible employees may contribute up to 50 percent of their salary to the 401(k) plan, but not more than the maximum allowed under Internal Revenue Service regulations. The Company matches 50 percent of the first 6 percent of covered compensation. The Company recorded total profit sharing and matching contribution expense of $2.1 million and $0.7 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Note 13. Retirement Plans (Continued)
The Company has a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) for one of its executive officers. The SERP meets the definition of a pension plan under ASC Topic 960, Plan Accounting Defined Benefit Pension Plans. At March 31, 2010, there was a $4.9 million unfunded pension liability related to the SERP. Pension expense for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 was $0.2 million, respectively.
There is also a SERP covering three former executives of the Pacific Bank, which the Company acquired in 2000. As of March 31, 2010, there was an unfunded pension liability for this SERP of $2.4 million. Expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 was insignificant.
The Company does not provide any other post-retirement employee benefits beyond the profit-sharing retirement plan and the SERPs.
Note 14. Contingencies
In connection with the liquidation of an investment acquired in a previous bank merger, the Company has an outstanding long-term indemnity. The maximum liability under the indemnity is $23 million, but the Company does not expect to make any payments under the terms of this indemnity.
Note 15. Variable Interest Entities
The Company holds ownership interests in certain special-purpose entities formed to provide affordable housing. The Company evaluates its interest in these entities to determine whether they meet the definition of a VIE and whether the Company is required to consolidate these entities. The Company is not the primary beneficiary of the affordable housing VIEs in which it holds interests and is therefore not required to consolidate these entities. The investment in these entities is initially recorded at cost, which approximates the maximum exposure to loss as a result of the Companys involvement with these unconsolidated entities. Subsequently, the carrying value is amortized over the stream of available tax credits and benefits. The Company expects to recover its investments over time, primarily through realization of federal low-income housing tax credits. The balance of the investments in these entities was $90.3 million, $93.4 million and $97.9 million at March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively, and is included in Affordable housing investments in the consolidated balance sheets. Unfunded commitments for affordable housing investments were $11.0 million at March 31, 2010. These unfunded commitments are recorded in Other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.
Of the affordable housing investments held as of March 31, 2010, the Company had a significant variable interest in four affordable housing partnerships. These interests were acquired at various times from 1998 to 2001. The Companys maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with these entities is limited to the $7.7 million aggregate carrying value of these investments at March 31, 2010. There were no unfunded commitments for these affordable housing investments at March 31, 2010.
The Company also has ownership interests in several private equity investment funds that are VIEs. The Company is not a primary beneficiary and, therefore, is not required to consolidate these VIEs. The investment in these entities is carried at cost, which approximates the maximum exposure to loss as a result of the Companys involvement with these entities. The Company expects to recover its investments over time, primarily through the allocation of fund income, gains or losses on the sale of fund assets, dividends or interest income. The balance in these entities was $37.4 million, $37.4 million and $36.8 million at March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively, and is included in Other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Income associated with these investments is reported in Other noninterest income in the consolidated statements of income.
Note 16. Noncontrolling Interest
In accordance with ASC 810 and EITF Topic D-98, Classification and Measurement of Redeemable Securities (Topic D-98), the Company reports noncontrolling interest in its majority-owned affiliates as either a separate component of equity in Noncontrolling interest in the consolidated balance sheets or as Redeemable noncontrolling interest in the mezzanine section between liabilities and equity in the consolidated financial statements. Topic D-98 specifies that securities that are redeemable at the option of the holder or outside the control of the issuer are not considered permanent equity and should be classified in the mezzanine section.
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest
The Corporation holds a majority ownership interest in seven investment management and wealth advisory affiliates that it consolidates and a noncontrolling interest in two other firms. In general, the management of each majority-owned affiliate has a significant noncontrolling ownership position in their firm and supervises the day-to-day operations of the affiliate. The Corporation is in regular contact with each affiliate regarding their operations and is an active participant in the management of the affiliates through its position on each firms board.
The Corporations investment in each affiliate is governed by operating agreements and other arrangements which provide the Corporation certain rights, benefits and obligations. The Corporation determines the appropriate method of accounting based upon these agreements and the factors contained therein. All majority-owned affiliates that have met the criteria for consolidation are included in the consolidated financial statements. All material intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated. The Corporation applies the equity method of accounting to investments where it holds a noncontrolling interest. For equity method investments, the Corporations portion of income before taxes is included in Trust and investment fees in the consolidated statements of income.
As of March 31, 2010, affiliate noncontrolling owners held equity interests with an estimated fair value of $46.7 million. This estimate reflects the maximum obligation to purchase equity interests in the affiliates. The events which would require the Company to purchase the equity interests may occur in the near term or over a longer period of time. The terms of the put provisions vary by agreement, but the value of the put is intended to equal or approximate the fair market value of the interests. The parent company carries key man life insurance policies to fund a portion of these conditional purchase obligations in the event of the death of an interest holder.
The following is a reconciliation of redeemable noncontrolling interest for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009:

Note 17. Segment Results
The Company has three reportable segments: Commercial and Private Banking, Wealth Management and Other. The factors considered in determining whether individual operating segments could be aggregated include that the operating segments: (i) offer the same products and services, (ii) offer services to the same types of clients, (iii) provide services in the same manner and (iv) operate in the same regulatory environment. The management accounting process measures the performance of the operating segments based on the Companys management structure and is not necessarily comparable with similar information for other financial services companies. If the management structures and/or the allocation process changes, allocations, transfers and assignments may change.
Note 17. Segment Results (Continued)
The Commercial and Private Banking reportable segment is the aggregation of the Commercial and Private Banking, Real Estate, Entertainment, Corporate Banking and Core Branch Banking operating segments. The Commercial and Private Banking segment provides banking products and services, including commercial and mortgage loans, lines of credit, deposits, cash management services, international trade finance and letters of credit to small and medium-sized businesses, entrepreneurs and affluent individuals. This segment primarily serves clients in California, New York and Nevada.
The Wealth Management segment includes the Corporations investment advisory affiliates and the Banks Wealth Management Services. The asset management affiliates and the Wealth Management division of the Bank make the following investment advisory and wealth management resources and expertise available to individual and institutional clients: investment management, wealth advisory services, brokerage, estate and financial planning and personal, business, custodial and employee trust services. The Wealth Management segment also advises and makes available mutual funds under the name of CNI Charter Funds. Both the asset management affiliates and the Banks Wealth Management division provide proprietary and nonproprietary products to offer a full spectrum of investment solutions in all asset classes and investment styles, including fixed-income instruments, mutual funds, domestic and international equities and alternative investments such as hedge funds.
The Other segment includes all other subsidiaries of the Company, the portion of corporate departments, including the Treasury Department and the Asset Liability Funding Center, that have not been allocated to the other segments, and inter-segment eliminations for revenue recognized in multiple segments for management reporting purposes. The Company uses traditional matched-maturity funds transfer pricing methodology. However, both positive and negative variances occur over time when transfer pricing non-maturing balance sheet items such as demand deposits. These variances, offset in the Funding Center, are evaluated annually by management and allocated back to the business segments as deemed necessary.
Business segment earnings are the primary measure of the segments performance as evaluated by management. Business segment earnings include direct revenue and expenses of the segment as well as corporate and inter-company cost allocations. Allocations of corporate expenses, such as data processing and human resources, are calculated based on estimated activity levels for the fiscal year. Costs associated with intercompany support and services groups, such as Operational Services, are allocated to each business segment based on actual services used. Capital is allocated based on the estimated risk within each business segment. The methodology of allocating capital is based on each business segments credit, market, and operational risk profile. If applicable, any provision for credit losses is allocated based on various credit factors, including but not limited to, credit risk ratings, credit rating fluctuation, charge-offs and recoveries and loan growth. Income taxes are charged to the business segments at the statutory rate. The Other segment includes an adjustment to reconcile to the Companys overall effective tax rate.
Exposure to market risk is managed in the Companys Treasury department. Interest rate risk is mostly removed from the Commercial and Private Banking segment and transferred to the Funding Center through a fund transfer pricing (FTP) methodology and allocating model. The FTP model records a cost of funds or credit for funds using a combination of matched maturity funding for fixed term assets and liabilities and a blended rate for the remaining assets and liabilities with varying maturities.
The Banks investment portfolio and unallocated equity are included in the Other segment. Amortization expense associated with customer-relationship intangibles is charged to the affected operating segments.

Note 18. Subsequent Events
On April 8, 2010, the Company repurchased its outstanding common stock warrant issued to the U.S. Treasury during the Companys participation in the TARP Capital Purchase Program. The common stock warrant was originally issued in November 2008. The repurchase price of $18.5 million was recorded as a charge to additional paid-in capital.
On May 5, 2010, the Company and the California Franchise Tax Board settled litigation related to various refund claims and other pending matters under review. Under the terms of the settlement, the Company will receive $29 million in tax credits, which are expected to add approximately $19 million to the Companys net income in the second quarter of 2010.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
See Cautionary Statement for Purposes of the Safe Harbor Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, on page 68 in connection with forward-looking statements included in this report.
Critical Accounting Policies
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Companys accounting policies are fundamental to understanding managements discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition. The Company has identified eleven policies as being critical because they require management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, contingent assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses included in the consolidated financial statements. The judgments and assumptions used by management are based on historical experience and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Circumstances and events that differ significantly from those underlying the Companys estimates, assumptions and judgments could cause the actual amounts reported to differ significantly from these estimates.
The Companys critical accounting policies include those that address accounting for business combinations, noncontrolling interest, financial assets and liabilities reported at fair value, securities, acquired impaired loans, allowance for loan and lease losses and reserve for off-balance sheet credit commitments, other real estate owned (OREO), goodwill and other intangible assets, share-based compensation plans, income taxes and derivatives and hedging activities. The Company has not made any significant changes in its critical accounting policies or its estimates and assumptions from those disclosed in its 2009 Annual Report.
Several new accounting pronouncements became effective for the Company on January 1, 2010. See Note 1 of the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for a summary of the pronouncements and discussion of the impact of their adoption on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
References to net income and earnings per share in the discussion that follows are based on net income attributable to the Company after deducting net income attributable to noncontrolling interest.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
On March 3, 2010, the Corporation repurchased $200 million in TARP preferred securitiesthe remaining half of a $400 million investment made in the Company by the U.S. Treasury in November 2008. The transaction completed the Corporations repurchase of all preferred shares held by the federal government. The Corporation repurchased the first $200 million of these securities on December 30, 2009. On April 8, 2010, the Corporation repurchased its outstanding common stock warrant issued to the U.S. Treasury for $18.5 million.
HIGHLIGHTS
· For the quarter ended March 31, 2010, consolidated net income attributable to City National Corporation was $15.7 million and consolidated net income available to common shareholders was $10.0 million, or $0.19 per diluted common share. For the year-earlier quarter, consolidated net income attributable to City National Corporation was $7.5 million and consolidated net income available to common shareholders was $2.0 million, or $0.04 per diluted common share. The increase in net income available to common shareholders is primarily due to higher net interest income resulting from the Companys acquisition of Imperial Capital Bank (ICB), as well as a net securities gain in the first quarter of 2010 compared to a net securities loss in the year-earlier period, offset by increases in noninterest expense.
· Revenue, which consists of net interest income and noninterest income, was $252.4 million for the first quarter of 2010, an increase of 31 percent from $192.2 million the year-earlier quarter.
· Fully taxable-equivalent net interest income amounted to $178.8 million for the first quarter of 2010, up 21 percent from the same period last year.
· The Companys net interest margin was 3.97 percent for the first quarter of 2010, up from 3.74 percent for the fourth quarter of 2009, and down from 4.00 percent for the year-earlier quarter.
· Noninterest income was $76.9 million for the first quarter of 2010, an increase of 63 percent from $47.3 million for the year-earlier quarter, due largely to a net gain on securities in the first quarter of 2010 compared with a net loss on securities in the year-ago period. It also included $9.1 million of income from the Companys loss sharing agreement with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).
· First quarter noninterest expense was $175.9 million, up 32 percent from the first quarter of 2009. The increase was due largely to acquisitions in 2009, increased compensation expense, and higher OREO expense.
· The Companys effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2010 was 20.6 percent compared to 17.7 percent for the first quarter of last year.
· Total assets were $20.07 billion at March 31, 2010, down 5 percent from $21.08 billion at December 31, 2009, and up 19 percent from $16.93 billion at March 31, 2009. The increase from the year-ago period largely reflected the Companys strong deposit growth as well as its acquisition of ICB on December 18, 2009. Total average assets increased to $20.27 billion for the first quarter of 2010 from $19.10 billion for the fourth quarter of 2009 and $16.41 billion for the first quarter of 2009.
· Loans and leases, excluding loans covered by the Companys loss-sharing agreement with the FDIC, total $11.69 billion, a decrease of 4 percent from December 31, 2009 and 5 percent from March 31, 2009. Average loans as of March 31, 2010, on the same basis, were $11.94 billion, down 1 percent from December 31, 2009 and 4 percent from March 31, 2009.
· The allowance for loan and lease losses increased to $292.8 million at March 31, 2010, from $288.5 million at December 31, 2009 and $241.6 million at March 31, 2009. The Companys allowance equals 2.50 percent of total loans and leases, excluding covered loans, at March 31, 2010, compared with 2.38 percent at December 31, 2009 and 1.96 percent at March 31, 2009.
· The Company recognized a provision for credit losses of $55.0 million for the first quarter of 2010 compared to $50.0 million in the year-ago period. Net loan charge-offs were $49.5 million, or 1.68 percent of average total loans and leases, excluding covered loans, on an annualized basis, for the first quarter of 2010, down from $58.7 million, or 1.93 percent, for the fourth quarter of 2009, and up from $33.6 million, or 1.10 percent, in the year-earlier quarter.
· Nonaccrual loans totaled $330.0 million at March 31, 2010, down from $388.7 million as of December 31, 2009, and up from $313.6 million at March 31, 2009. At March 31, 2010, nonperforming assets, excluding covered assets, were $388.0 million, compared to $442.0 million at December 31, 2009, and $326.3 million at March 31, 2009.
· Average securities for the first quarter of 2010 totaled $4.04 billion, an increase of 4 percent from $3.88 billion for the fourth quarter of 2009 and an increase of 67 percent from $2.42 billion for the first quarter of 2009, as increased deposits and capital were invested in high-grade, fixed-income instruments.
· Period end deposits at March 31, 2010 were $16.96 billion, down 2 percent from $17.38 billion at December 31, 2009 and up 24 percent from $13.69 billion at March 31, 2009. The decrease in period end deposits from December 31, 2009 was due to planned withdrawals of high-priced certificates of deposits that had been assumed in the ICB acquisition. Total ICB deposits were $919.7 million as of March 31, 2010 compared to $1.67 billion as of December 31, 2009. Average deposit balances for the first quarter of 2010 were $16.86 billion, up 7 percent from $15.73 billion for the fourth quarter of 2009 and up 31 percent from $12.84 billion for the first quarter of 2009. Average core deposits were up 37 percent from the year-ago period and 8 percent from the fourth quarter of 2009, reaching a record $15.63 billion or 93 percent of average deposits.
· The Companys ratio of Tier 1 common shareholders equity to risk-based assets was 9.4 percent at March 31, 2010 compared to 8.6 percent at March 31, 2009 and 8.9 percent at December 31, 2009. Refer to the Capital section of Managements Discussion and Analysis for further discussion of this non-GAAP measure.
Management continues to expect increased profitability in 2010 over 2009, as credit quality and the nations economy continue to show signs of improvement.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the difference between interest income (which includes yield-related loan fees) and interest expense. Net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis expressed as a percentage of average total earning assets is referred to as the net interest margin, which represents the average net effective yield on earning assets. The following tables present the components of net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009:

(1) Net interest income is presented on a fully taxable-equivalent basis.
(2) Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
(3) Includes average nonaccrual loans of $365,595 and $282,935 for 2010 and 2009, respectively.
(4) Loan income includes loan fees of $4,874 and $4,551 for 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Net interest income is impacted by the volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate), interest rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume), and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The following table provides a breakdown of the changes in net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis and dividend income due to volume and rate between the first quarter of 2010 and 2009. The impact of interest rate swaps, which affect interest income on loans and leases and interest expense on deposits and borrowings, is included in rate changes.

(1) Includes covered loans.
Net interest income increased to $175.5 million for the first quarter of 2010 from $144.9 million for the first quarter of 2009. The increase in net interest income was due primarily to strong deposit growth and the loans acquired in the acquisition of ICB in December 2009. Interest income on loans increased from $144.2 million for the first quarter of 2009 to $169.5 million for the first quarter of 2010.
Total interest expense was $26.6 million and $24.6 million for the first quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively. Interest expense on deposits was $13.2 million for the first quarter of 2010 compared to $19.6 million for the year-earlier quarter, a 33 percent decrease. The decrease was a result of declining interest rates, partially offset by a 35 percent increase in average interest-bearing deposit balances from the first quarter of 2009 to the first quarter of 2010. Interest expense on borrowings increased to $13.4 million for the first quarter of 2010 from $5.0 million for the same period in 2009. The increase was due to an increase in borrowings resulting from the issuance of $180 million of subordinated debt in the third quarter of 2009 and $250 million of trust preferred securities in December 2009.
The net settlement of interest-rate swaps increased interest income by $7.4 million for the first quarter of 2010, and increased interest income by $6.0 million for the year-earlier quarter.
Fully taxable-equivalent net interest income, which includes amounts to convert nontaxable income to fully taxable-equivalent amounts, increased to $178.8 million for the first quarter of 2010 from $148.4 million for the first quarter of 2009 and $165.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. The $30.4 million increase in fully taxable equivalent net interest income from the year ago quarter was primarily generated through loan and securities growth (volume variance) and was partially offset by a decrease in net interest income due to declining rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities (rate variance). The yield on earning assets was 4.56 percent for the first quarter of 2010, down from 4.67 percent for the year-earlier quarter, but up
from 4.21 percent for the fourth quarter of 2009. The Companys average prime rate for the quarters ended March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009 was 3.25 percent. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 1.04 percent for the first quarter of 2010, from 1.23 percent for the same period of 2009, but increased from 0.95 percent for the fourth quarter of 2009 The fully taxable net interest margin was 3.97 percent for the first quarter of 2010, down from 4.00 percent for the year-earlier quarter, but up from 3.74 percent for the fourth quarter of 2009. Lower funding costs and growth in noninterest-bearing deposits reduced the impact of the 11 basis point decrease in the yield on earning assets compared with the prior year quarter. The increase in the net interest margin from the fourth quarter was largely due to a shift from lower yielding investments to higher yielding loans from the ICB acquisition.
Average loans and leases, excluding covered loans, decreased to $11.94 billion for the first quarter of 2010, a 4 percent decrease from average loans and leases of $12.40 billion for the first quarter of 2009. Average commercial loans for the first quarter decreased 4 percent from the year-earlier quarter. Average commercial real estate mortgages decreased by 2 percent from the prior year quarter. Average residential mortgage loans, nearly all of which are made to the Companys private banking clients, increased 3 percent from the 2009 quarter. Average construction loans, which decreased 34 percent from the prior year quarter, are a portfolio that is diverse in terms of geography and product type. The portfolio consists primarily of recourse loans to well-established real estate developers and is generally located in established urban markets. Most of these developers are clients with whom the Company has significant long-term relationships.
Average total securities for the first quarter of 2010 were $4.04 billion, an increase of $1.62 billion, or 67 percent, from the first quarter of 2009. The increase in average securities from the year-earlier quarter is due to deposit growth.
Average deposits totaled $16.86 billion for the first quarter of 2010, a 31 percent increase from average deposits of $12.84 billion for the first quarter of 2009. Average core deposits, which continued to provide substantial benefits to the Banks cost of funds, increased 37 percent to $15.63 billion for the first quarter of 2010 from $11.38 billion for the first quarter of 2009. Average core deposits, which do not include certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more, represented 93 percent of the total average deposit base for the first quarter of 2010.
Provision for Credit Losses
The Company accounts for the credit risk associated with lending activities through its allowance for loan and lease losses, reserve for off-balance sheet credit commitments and provision for credit losses. The provision for credit losses is the expense recognized in the consolidated statements of income to adjust the allowance and the reserve for off-balance sheet credit commitments to the levels deemed appropriate by management, as determined through application of the Companys allowance methodology procedures. See Critical Accounting Policies on page 40 of the Companys Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
The Company recorded expense of $55.0 million and $50.0 million through the provision for credit losses in the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The provision reflects managements continuing assessment of the credit quality of the Companys loan portfolio, which is affected by a broad range of economic factors. Additional factors affecting the provision include net loan charge-offs, nonaccrual loans, specific reserves, risk rating migration and changes in the portfolio size. See Balance Sheet AnalysisAllowance for Loan and Lease Losses and Reserve for Off-Balance Sheet Credit Commitments for further information on factors considered by the Company in assessing the credit quality of the loan portfolio and establishing the allowance for loan and lease losses.
Nonaccrual loans totaled $330.0 million at March 31, 2010, down from $388.7 million at December 31, 2009, and up from $313.6 million at March 31, 2009. The decrease in nonaccrual loans from December 31, 2009 to March 31, 2010 is due primarily to the real estate construction and commercial real estate mortgage portfolios. Total nonperforming assets, excluding covered assets, were $388.0 million, or 3.30 percent of total loans and leases and OREO, excluding covered assets, at March 31, 2010. This compares with $442.0 million, or 3.62 percent, at the end of 2009 and $326.3 million, or 2.65 percent, at March 31, 2009.
Net loan charge-offs were $49.5 million, or 1.68 percent of average total loans and leases, excluding covered loans, on an annualized basis, for the first quarter of 2010, up from $33.6 million, or 1.10 percent, in the year-earlier quarter. The increase in net charge-offs occurred primarily in the Companys commercial real estate loan portfolio.
Covered loans represent loans acquired from the FDIC that are subject to a loss sharing agreement, and are accounted for as acquired impaired loans under ASC Topic 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit
Quality (ASC 310-30). Loans accounted for under ASC 310-30 are generally considered accruing and performing loans as the loans accrete interest income over the estimated life of the loan when cash flows are reasonably estimable. Accordingly, acquired impaired loans that are contractually past due are still considered to be accruing and performing loans. If the timing and amount of future cash flows is not reasonably estimable, the loans may be classified as nonaccrual loans and interest income is not recognized until the timing and amount of future cash flows can be reasonably estimated. At March 31, 2010, there were no acquired impaired loans on nonaccrual status and no allowance for loan and lease loss or provision expense associated with these loan balances. The Company did not recognize any charge-offs or recoveries in the acquired impaired loan portfolio during the first quarter of 2010.
The Company has not originated nor purchased subprime or option adjustable-rate mortgages.
Credit quality will be influenced by underlying trends in the economic cycle, particularly in California and Nevada, and other factors which are beyond managements control. Consequently, no assurances can be given that the Company will not sustain loan or lease losses, in any particular period, that are sizable in relation to the allowance for loan and lease losses.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income was $76.9 million in the first quarter of 2010, an increase of 63 percent from the first quarter of 2009, due to a $1.1 million net gain on securities in the first quarter of 2010 compared with a $15.0 million net loss on securities in the year-ago period, as well as $9.1 million of income from the Companys loss sharing agreement with the FDIC. Noninterest income accounted for 30 percent of the Companys revenue in the current quarter, an increase from 25 percent for the year-earlier quarter.
Wealth Management
The Company provides various trust, investment and wealth advisory services to its individual and business clients. The Company delivers these services through the Banks wealth management division as well as through its wealth management affiliates. Trust services are provided only by the Bank. Trust and investment fee revenue includes fees from trust, investment and asset management, and other wealth advisory services. A portion of these fees is based on the market value of client assets managed, advised, administered or held in custody. The remaining portion of these fees is based on the specific service provided, such as estate and financial planning services, or may be fixed fees. For those fees based on market valuations, the mix of assets held in client accounts, as well as the type of managed account, impacts how closely changes in trust and investment fee income correlate with changes in the financial markets. Changes in market valuations are reflected in fee income primarily on a trailing-quarter basis. Trust and investment fees for the first quarter of 2010 were up 30 percent from the first quarter of 2009, as market conditions improved. Money market mutual fund and brokerage fees were $5.3 million, down 46 percent from $9.8 million for the year-earlier quarter. This decline was due to historically low interest rates on government and other quality short-term bonds, as investment fees were reduced to maintain a positive yield for fund investors. Additionally, brokerage fees declined significantly from the year-ago period, reflecting reduced spreads and trading activity.
Assets under management (AUM) include assets for which the Company makes investment decisions on behalf of its clients and assets under advisement for which the Company receives advisory fees from its clients. Assets under administration (AUA) are assets the Company holds in a fiduciary capacity or for which it provides non-advisory services.

(1) Excludes $12.70 billion, $11.48 billion and $4.49 billion of assets under management for an asset manager in which the Company held a noncontrolling ownership interest as of March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively.
(2) Excludes $2.09 billion and $1.93 billion of assets under management or administration as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, for an asset manager that the Company deconsolidated effective November 1, 2009.
AUM increased 26 percent from the year-earlier quarter and increased 2 percent from year-end 2009. Assets under management or administration increased 22 percent from the year-earlier quarter and increased 1 percent from year-end 2009. The increase in AUM compared with the year earlier quarter was primarily due to higher equity market values, higher assets under management at Convergent Wealth Advisors, and the July 2009 acquisition of Lee Munder Capital Group (LMCG), which added $3.36 billion of AUM at the date of acquisition. These increases were partially offset by a reduction in AUM resulting from the deconsolidation of a wealth management affiliate during the fourth quarter of 2009.

(1) Excludes assets under management for an asset manager in which the Company held a noncontrolling interest as of March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009. Also excludes assets under management for an asset manager that the Company deconsolidated effective November 1, 2009.
(2) Includes international equities, private equity and other alternative investments.
The mix of assets for the first quarter of 2010 has changed from prior year due to an increase in equity investments as a result of the LMCG acquisition and increases in the market value of equities. Additionally, the decrease in cash and cash equivalents occurred as clients shifted funds to high yielding assets and insured bank deposit accounts.
Other Noninterest Income
Cash management and deposit transaction fees for the first quarter of 2010 were $12.6 million, down 5 percent from the first quarter of 2009. The decline in deposit-related fee income from the year-earlier quarter was due to lower client transaction volumes.
International services income for the first quarter of 2010 was $6.5 million, virtually unchanged from the first quarter of 2009. International services income includes foreign exchange fees, fees on commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit, foreign collection fees and gains and losses associated with fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
Income and expense from the FDIC loss sharing agreement is reflected in FDIC loss sharing income, net. This balance includes the portion of expenses related to covered assets that are reimbursable by the FDIC, net of income due to the FDIC. It also includes discount accretion on the FDIC indemnification asset, as well as the income statement effects of other adjustments to the FDIC indemnification asset. Net FDIC loss sharing income was $9.1 million for the first quarter of 2010.
Other income for the first quarter of 2010 was $6.7 million, up 11 percent, from the first quarter of 2009.
The Company recognized $2.1 million of net gains on the sale of securities available-for-sale in the first quarter of 2010, compared to a $2.9 million net loss on the sale of securities available-for-sale for the first quarter of 2009.
Impairment losses on securities available-for-sale recognized in earnings were $1.0 million for the first quarter of 2010, compared with $12.0 million for the first quarter of 2009. See Balance Sheet Analysis Securities for a discussion of securities available-for-sale impairment.
Net gain on the sale of other assets was $1.4 million in the first quarter of 2010. There was no gain or loss recognized on the sale of other assets in the first quarter of 2009. The net gain in 2010 relates mostly to gains recognized on the sale of OREO.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense was $175.9 million for the first quarter of 2010, an increase of 32 percent from $133.0 million for the first quarter of 2009. The increase from the year-earlier period was due largely to the acquisitions of ICB, LMCG and the Banks new branch in San Jose, California. It also reflected increased compensation expense as well as increased OREO expense and FDIC costs.
Salaries and employee benefits expense increased to $95.7 million for the current quarter, or 22 percent, from $78.3 million for the year-earlier quarter. The increase in expense for the year-earlier quarter was primarily due to increased personnel costs from the addition of employees from the ICB and LMCG acquisitions, as well as an increase in incentive compensation expense. Full-time equivalent staff increased to 2,983 at March 31, 2010, from 2,933 at March 31, 2009.
The remaining noninterest expense categories increased $25.5 million, or 47 percent, for the first quarter of 2010 compared with the first quarter of 2009, due primarily to a $17.1 million increase in OREO expense and a $3.5 million increase in FDIC assessments. Approximately $7.4 million of the increase in OREO expense is related to covered OREO, of which 80 percent, or $5.9 million, is reimbursable to the Company from the FDIC. The reimbursable amount of $5.9 million is recognized in FDIC loss sharing income, net in the noninterest income section of the consolidated statements of income.
Share-Based Compensation Expense
On March 31, 2010, the Company had one share-based compensation plan, the City National Corporation 2008 Omnibus Plan (the Plan), which was approved by the Companys shareholders on April 23, 2008. No new awards will be granted under predecessor plans. See Note 10, Share-Based Compensation, of the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q for a description of the stock option plan and method of estimating the fair value of option awards.
The compensation cost that has been recognized for all share-based awards was $3.9 million and $3.5 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company received $9.8 million and $0.1 million in cash for the exercise of stock options during the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The tax benefit recognized for share-based compensation arrangements in equity was $1.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 compared to tax expense of $1.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009.
At March 31, 2010, there was $18.1 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options granted under the Companys plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.0 years. At March 31,
2010, there was $23.0 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted shares granted under the Companys plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.6 years.
Segment Operations
Commercial and Private Banking
The Commercial and Private Banking segment had a net income of $3.9 million for the first quarter of 2010, compared with net income of $17.8 million for the first quarter of 2009. The decrease in net income for the quarter compared with the year-earlier quarter is due to the higher provision for credit losses, increases in expense associated with the acquisition of ICB and the opening of a new branch both of which occurred in the fourth quarter of 2009, increased OREO expense and higher FDIC costs. Net interest income increased to $164.9 million for the first quarter of 2010 from $148.4 million for the year-earlier quarter. The growth in net interest income is primarily due to an 11 percent increase in average loan balances, including acquired loans, over the year-earlier quarter. Average deposits, including those acquired from ICB, increased by 40 percent to $16.07 billion from $11.47 billion for the first quarter of 2009. Noninterest income increased to $45.2 million for the first quarter of March 2010 from $42.1 million for the year-earlier quarter. Noninterest income in the first quarter of 2010 includes $9.1 million of income from the Companys loss-sharing agreement with the FDIC. This increase was partially offset by a 5 percent decline in cash management and deposit transaction fees due to lower client transaction volumes. Noninterest expense, including depreciation and amortization, increased to $148.4 million, or by 35 percent, from $109.7 million for the year-earlier quarter for the reasons discussed above.
Wealth Management
The Wealth Management segment had net income attributable to CNC of $1.3 million for the first quarter of 2010, compared with net income of $1.8 million for the first quarter of 2009. Increases in fee income resulting from improving conditions in the financial markets were partially offset by increases in noninterest expense. Refer to page 45 for a discussion of the factors impacting fee income for the Wealth Management segment. Noninterest expense, including depreciation and amortization, increased by 10 percent to $37.5 million for the first quarter of 2010 compared with $34.0 million for the year-earlier quarter. The increase in noninterest expense compared with the year-earlier quarter is due to higher compensation costs and expenses related to LMCG, an institutional asset management firm that was acquired in July 2009.
Other
Net income attributable to CNC for the Other segment was $10.6 million for the first quarter of 2010, compared with a net loss of $12.2 million for the first quarter of 2009. Net interest income increased to $10.3 million for the first quarter of 2010 from net interest expense of $3.9 million for the year-earlier quarter. Net interest income for the current quarter was favorably impacted by lower net funding costs in the Asset Liability Funding Center due to the growth in core deposits. Noninterest income for the current quarter includes a $2.1 million net gain on sales of securities and a $1.0 million impairment loss on securities, compared with a $2.9 million net loss on sales of securities and a $12.0 million impairment loss on securities for the year-earlier quarter. Additionally, noninterest income for the current quarter reflects a significant reduction in the elimination of inter-segment revenues (recorded in the Other segment) compared with the year-earlier quarter.
The Companys effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2010 was 20.6 percent, compared with 17.7 percent for the first quarter of 2009. The effective tax rates differ from the applicable statutory federal and state tax rates due to various factors, including tax benefits from investments in affordable housing partnerships and tax-exempt income on municipal bonds and bank-owned life insurance.
The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties relating to uncertain tax positions as an income tax provision expense. The Company recognized approximately $35 thousand and $0.5 million of interest and penalties expense for the first quarters of 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company had approximately $5.5 million, $5.5 million and $4.7 million of accrued interest and penalties as of March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively.
The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return and also file income tax returns in various state jurisdictions. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) completed its audits of the Company for the tax year 2008 resulting in no material financial statement impact. The Company is currently being audited by the IRS for 2009. The potential financial statement impact, if any, resulting from completion of these audits is expected to be minimal.
Subsequent to March 31, 2010, the Company and the California Franchise Tax Board closed its audits for the years 1998 through 2004 and settled litigation related to various refund claims and other pending matters under review. Under the terms of the settlement, the Company will receive $29 million in tax credits, which are expected to add approximately $19 million to the Companys net income in the second quarter of 2010.
From time to time, there may be differences in opinion with respect to the tax treatment accorded transactions. If a tax position which was previously recognized on the consolidated financial statements is no longer more likely than not to be sustained upon a challenge from the taxing authorities, the tax benefit from the tax position will be derecognized. As of March 31, 2010, the Company does not have any tax positions which dropped below a more likely than not threshold.
BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS
Total assets was $20.07 billion at March 31, 2010, an increase of 19 percent from $16.93 billion at March 31, 2009, and a decrease of 5 percent from $21.08 billion at December 31, 2009. Average assets for the first quarter of 2010 increased to $20.27 billion from $16.41 billion for the first quarter of 2009. The increase in period-end and average assets from the year ago period reflects the Companys strong deposit growth as well as its acquisition of ICB. The decrease in period-end assets from December 31, 2009 was primarily due to lower loan demand and the continuing reduction of troubled assets.
Total average interest-earning assets for the first quarter of 2010 increased to $18.28 billion from $17.61 billion for the fourth quarter of 2009 and $15.03 billion for the first quarter of 2009.

The fair value of securities available-for-sale totaled $3.93 billion, $4.31 billion and $2.92 billion at March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively. The increase in securities from March 31, 2009 to December 31, 2009
was primarily a result of strong deposit growth, improving market values and securities acquired from the ICB acquisition in December 2009. In the first quarter of 2010, the securities balance was reduced by scheduled maturities of $207.0 million, paydowns of $200.0 million and securities sales of $405.5 million.
At March 31, 2010, the available-for-sale securities portfolio had a net unrealized gain of $30.7 million, comprised of $65.7 million of unrealized gains and $35.0 million of unrealized losses. At December 31, 2009, the available-for-sale securities portfolio had a net unrealized loss of $12.6 million, comprised of $46.0 million of unrealized gains and $58.6 million of unrealized losses. At March 31, 2009, the available-for-sale securities portfolio had a net unrealized loss of $53.7 million, comprised of $43.1 million of unrealized gains and $96.8 million of unrealized losses.
The average duration of total securities available-for-sale at March 31, 2010 was 2.9 years, up from 2.5 years at March 31, 2009 and unchanged from December 31, 2009. Duration provides a measure of fair value sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The average duration is within the investment guidelines set by the Companys Asset/Liability Committee and the interest-rate risk guidelines set by the Board of Directors.

Interest income on available-for-sale securities is comprised of: (i) taxable interest income of $28.8 million and $21.1 million for the first quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively, (ii) nontaxable interest income of $3.2 million and $3.6 million for the first quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively, and (iii) dividend income of $0.3 million and $0.4 million for the first quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively.
The following table provides the expected remaining maturities of debt securities included in the securities portfolio at March 31, 2010, except for mortgage-backed securities which are allocated according to the the average life of expected cash flows. Average expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because mortgage debt issuers may have the right to repay obligations prior to contractual maturity.

Impairment Assessment
The Company performs a quarterly assessment of the debt and equity securities in its investment portfolio that have an unrealized loss to determine whether the decline in the fair value of these securities below their cost is other-than-temporary.
Impairment is considered other-than-temporary when it becomes probable that an investor will be unable to recover the cost of an investment. The Companys impairment assessment takes into consideration factors such as the extent to which the market value has been less than cost; the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer including events specific to the issuer or industry; defaults or deferrals of scheduled interest, principal or dividend payments; external credit ratings and recent downgrades; and the Company does not intend to sell the security and it is not more likely than not it will be required to sell the security prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis. If a decline in fair value is judged to be other than temporary, the cost basis of the individual security is written down to fair value which then becomes the new cost basis. The new cost basis is not adjusted for subsequent recoveries in fair value.
In accordance with ASC 320-35, InvestmentsDebt and Equity SecuritiesSubsequent Measurement, when there are credit losses associated with an impaired debt security and the Company does not have the intent to sell the security and it is more likely than not that it will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis, the Company will separate the amount of the impairment into the amount that is credit-related and the amount related to non-credit factors. The credit-related impairment is recognized in Net impairment loss recognized in earnings in the consolidated statements of income. The non-credit-related impairment is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI).
Securities Deemed to be Other-Than-Temporarily Impaired
Through the impairment assessment process, the Company determined that certain investments were other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2010. The Company recorded credit loss impairment in earnings on available-for-sale securities of $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The $14.2 million non-credit portion of impairment recognized at March 31, 2010 was recorded in AOCI. The Company recorded a $12.0 million impairment loss in earnings on securities available-for-sale for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Non-Agency CMOs
During the first quarter of 2010, the Company identified certain non-agency collateralized mortgage obligation securities (CMOs) that were considered to be other-than-temporarily impaired because the present value of expected cash flows was
less than cost. These CMOs have a fixed interest rate for an initial period after which they become variable-rate instruments with annual rate resets. For purposes of projecting future cash flows, the current fixed coupon was used through the reset date for each security. The prevailing LIBOR/Treasury forward curve as of the measurement date was used to project all future floating-rate cash flows based on the characteristics of each security. Other factors considered in the projection of future cash flows include the current level of subordination from other CMO classes, anticipated prepayment rates, cumulative defaults and loss given default. The Company concluded that the shortfall in expected cash flows represented a credit loss and recognized impairment losses in earnings totaling $1.0 million on its investments in CMOs year-to-date. The remaining other-than-temporary impairment for these securities was recognized in AOCI. This non-credit portion of other-than-temporary impairment is attributed to external market conditions, primarily the lack of liquidity in these securities and increases in interest rates.
The following tables provide a summary of the gross unrealized losses and fair value of investment securities aggregated by investment category and length of time that the securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position as of March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009. The tables include investments for which an other-than-temporary impairment has not been recognized in earnings, along with investments that had a non-credit related impairment recognized in AOCI:

At March 31, 2010, total securities available-for-sale had a fair value of $3.93 billion, which included $810.9 million of securities available-for-sale in an unrealized loss position as of March 31, 2010. This balance consists of $768.3 million of temporarily impaired securities and $42.6 million of securities that had non-credit related impairment recognized in AOCI. At March 31, 2010, the Company had 88 debt securities in an unrealized loss position. The debt securities in an unrealized loss position include 1 U.S. Treasury note, 9 Federal agency debt securities, 8 Federal agency MBS, 17 Federal agency CMOs, 24 private label CMOs, 26 state and municipal securities and 3 other debt securities.
The largest component of the unrealized loss at March 31, 2010 was $24.2 million related to non-agency collateralized mortgage obligations. The Company monitors the performance of the mortgages underlying these bonds. Although there has been some additional deterioration in collateral performance during the first quarter of 2010 due to weakness in the housing market, the Company only holds the most senior tranches of each issue which provides protection against defaults. The Company attributes the unrealized loss on CMOs held largely to the current absence of liquidity in the credit markets and to increases in interest rates. Other than the $1.0 million credit loss discussed in Non-Agency CMOs above, the Company expects to receive all contractual principal and interest payments due on its CMO debt securities. Additionally, the Company does not intend to sell the securities, and it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell the securities before it recovers the cost basis of its investment. The mortgages in these asset pools are relatively large and have been made to borrowers with strong credit history and significant equity invested in their homes. They are well diversified geographically. Nonetheless, significant further weakening of economic fundamentals coupled with significant increases in unemployment and substantial deterioration in the value of high-end residential properties could extend distress to this borrower population. This could increase default rates and put additional pressure on property values. Should these conditions occur, the value of these securities could decline and trigger the recognition of further other-than-temporary impairment charges.
Other debt securities include the Companys investments in highly rated corporate debt and collateralized bond obligations backed by trust preferred securities (CDOs) issued by a geographically diverse pool of small- and medium-sized financial institutions. Liquidity pressures in 2008 and in 2009 caused a general decline in the value of corporate debt. The CDOs held in securities available-for-sale at March 31, 2010 are the most senior tranches of each issue. The market for CDOs has been inactive since 2008, therefore, the fair values of these securities were determined using an internal pricing model that incorporates assumptions about discount rates in an illiquid market, projected cash flows and collateral performance. The CDOs had a $6.5 million unrealized loss at March 31, 2010 which the Company attributes to the illiquid credit markets. The CDOs have collateral that exceeds the outstanding debt by over 29 percent at March 31, 2010. Security valuations reflect the current and prospective performance of the issuers whose debt is contained in these asset pools. The Company expects to receive all contractual principal and interest payments due on its CDOs. Additionally, the Company does not intend to sell the securities, and it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell the securities before it recovers the cost basis of its investment.
The Company does not consider the debt securities in the above table to be other than temporarily impaired at March 31, 2010.
At December 31, 2009, total securities available-for-sale had a fair value of $4.31 billion, which included $1.69 billion of securities available-for-sale in an unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2009. This balance consists of $1.65 billion of temporarily impaired securities and $43.5 million of securities that had non-credit related impairment recognized in AOCI. At December 31, 2009, the Company had 155 debt securities in an unrealized loss position. The debt securities in an unrealized loss position included 1 U.S. Treasury bill, 15 Federal agency debt securities, 30 Federal agency MBS, 44 Federal agency CMOs, 29 private label CMOs, 32 state and municipal securities and 4 other debt securities.
At March 31, 2009, total securities available-for-sale had a fair value of $2.92 billion, which included $681.3 million of securities available-for-sale in an unrealized loss position as of March 31, 2009. At March 31, 2009, the Company had 148 debt securities and 1 mutual fund in an unrealized loss position. The debt securities in an unrealized loss position included 6 Federal agency securities, 9 Federal agency CMOs, 33 private label CMOs, 89 state and municipal securities and 11 other debt securities.

Total loans and leases were $13.49 billion, $14.00 billion and $12.31 billion at March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively. Total loans, excluding covered loans, were $11.69 billion, $12.15 billion and $12.31 billion at March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively. Covered loans represent loans acquired from the FDIC that are subject to a loss sharing agreement. Total loans and leases at March 31, 2010 decreased 4 percent from December 31, 2009 and increased 10 percent from March 31, 2009. The decrease from December 31, 2009 was due to lower loan demand. The increase from the year-earlier period was due primarily to the purchase of loans in the FDIC-assisted acquisition of ICB in December 2009. Commercial loans, including lease financing, decreased by 6 percent from year-end 2009 and the year-earlier quarter. Commercial real estate mortgage loans decreased by 2 percent from year-end 2009 and the year-earlier quarter. Residential mortgages decreased by 1 percent from year-end 2009 and increased 3 percent from the year earlier quarter. Real estate construction loans declined by 13 percent and 39 percent for the same periods, respectively. Equity lines of credit was virtually unchanged from December 31, 2009, but increased by 13 percent from March 31, 2009.
Covered Loans
Covered loans represent loans acquired from the FDIC that are subject to a loss sharing agreement and were $1.80 billion at March 31, 2010 and $1.85 billion as of December 31, 2009. The following table reflects the carrying value of covered loans by loan type as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009:

The Company evaluated the acquired loans and concluded that all loans, with the exception of a small population of loans, would be accounted for under ASC 310-30. Loans are accounted for under ASC 310-30 when there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination and for which it is probable, at acquisition, that the Company would be unable to collect all contractually required payments. As of the December 18, 2009 acquisition date, the preliminary estimates of the contractually required payments receivable for all acquired impaired loans were $3.84 billion, the cash flows expected to be collected were $2.55 billion, and the fair value of the loans was $1.86 billion. These amounts were determined based on the estimated remaining life of the underlying loans, which included the effects of estimated prepayments. Interest income is recognized on acquired impaired loans through accretion of the difference between the carrying amount of the loans and their
expected cash flows. There was no allowance for loan losses related to the acquired impaired loans and no nonaccrual covered loans as of March 31, 2010.
Total covered loans of $1.80 billion as of March 31, 2010 consist of acquired impaired loans of $1.79 billion that are within the scope of ASC 310-30 and $9.0 million of acquired loans that are outside the scope of ASC 310-30. Changes in the carrying amount and accretable yield for acquired impaired loans were as follows for the period from January 1, 2010 through March 31, 2010:

Because of the short time period between the closing of the acquisition and year-end 2009, certain 2009 amounts related to the acquired impaired loans were preliminary estimates. In finalizing its analysis of these loans, the Company recorded adjustments to 2009 amounts that are reflected in the Other line of the above table.
The Company recorded an FDIC indemnification asset in December 2009 that represents the present value of the expected reimbursement from the FDIC related to expected losses on acquired loans and OREO. The FDIC indemnification asset was $325.4 million at March 31, 2010 and $380.7 million at December 31, 2009. See Note 2, Business Combination, for further discussion of the FDIC indemnification asset.
As reported in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, the federal banking regulatory agencies issued final guidance on December 6, 2006 on risk management practices for financial institutions with high or increasing concentrations of commercial real estate (CRE) loans on their balance sheets. The regulatory guidance reiterates the need for sound internal risk management practices for those institutions that have experienced rapid growth in CRE lending, have notable exposure to specific types of CRE, or are approaching or exceeding the supervisory criteria used to evaluate the CRE concentration risk, but the guidance is not to be construed as a limit for CRE exposures. The supervisory criteria are: total reported loans for construction, land development and other land represent 100 percent of the institutions total risk-based capital, and both total CRE loans represent 300 percent or more of the institutions total risk-based capital and the institutions CRE loan portfolio has increased 50 percent or more within the last 36 months. As of March 31, 2010, total loans for construction, land development and other land represented 48 percent of total risk-based capital; total CRE loans represented 196 percent of total risk-based capital and the total portfolio of loans for construction, land development, other land and CRE increased 54 percent over the last 36 months.
The Companys policy defines subprime loans as loans to applicants who typically have impaired credit histories, reduced repayment capacity, and a relatively higher default probability. Subprime credit risk characteristics may include:
· Two or more 30-day delinquencies in the last 12 months, or one or more 60-day delinquencies in the last 24 months;
· A judgment, foreclosure, repossession, or charge-off in the prior 24 months;
· A bankruptcy in the last five years;
· A credit bureau risk score (FICO) of 660 or less; and/or
· Debt-to-income ratio of 50 percent or greater
The Company does not, and has not, offered a subprime loan program. All loans are judgmentally underwritten by reviewing the clients credit history, payment capacity and collateral value. The Company does not consider loans with the above characteristics to be subprime if strong and verifiable mitigating factors exist. Mitigating factors include guarantees, low LTV ratios and verified liquidity. As of March 31, 2010, the Company did not have any subprime loans in its loan portfolio based on the Companys definition.
Asset Quality
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses and Reserve for Off-Balance Sheet Credit Commitments
At March 31, 2010, the allowance for loan and lease losses was $292.8 million, or 2.50 percent, of outstanding loans and leases excluding covered loans, and the reserve for off-balance sheet credit commitments was $18.5 million. The process used for determining the adequacy of the reserve for off-balance sheet credit commitments is consistent with the process for the allowance for loan and lease losses.
The following tables summarize the activity in the allowance for loan and lease losses and the reserve for off-balance sheet credit commitments for the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009:

(1) The allowance for loan and lease losses does not include any amounts related to covered loans accounted for under ASC 310-30.
Impaired Loans
Loans, other than those included in large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans, are considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement, including scheduled interest payments. The assessment for impairment occurs when and while such loans are on nonaccrual, or when the loan has been restructured. When a loan with unique risk characteristics has been identified as being impaired, the amount of impairment will be measured by the Company using discounted cash flows, except when it is determined that the primary (remaining) source of repayment for the loan is the operation or liquidation of the underlying collateral. In these cases, the current fair value of the collateral, reduced by costs to sell, will be used in place of discounted cash flows. Where the carrying value of the impaired loan is greater than the fair value of the collateral, less costs to sell, the Company specifically establishes an allowance for loan and lease losses to cover the deficiency. The Company does not maintain a reserve for impaired loans where the carrying value of the loan is less than the fair value of the collateral, reduced by costs to sell. As a final alternative, the observable market price of the debt may be used to assess impairment. All nonaccrual loans greater than $500,000 are considered impaired and are individually analyzed. Impaired loans with commitments of less than $500,000 are aggregated for the purpose of measuring impairment using historical loss factors as a means of measurement.
If the measurement of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan (including accrued interest, net deferred loan fees or costs and unamortized premium or discount), an impairment allowance is recognized by creating or adjusting the existing allocation of the allowance for loan and lease losses. The Companys policy is to record cash receipts on impaired loans first as reductions in principal and then as interest income.
At March 31, 2010, there were $319.0 million of impaired loans included in nonaccrual loans, with an allowance allocation of $44.5 million. Impaired loans with an allocated allowance were $233.9 million and impaired loans without an allocated allowance were $85.1 million. The remaining $11.0 million of nonaccrual loans at March 31, 2010 are loans under $500,000 that were not individually evaluated for impairment. At December 31, 2009, there were $375.7 million of impaired loans included in nonaccrual loans, with an allowance allocation of $55.8 million. At March 31, 2009, there were $303.7 million of impaired loans included in nonaccrual loans that had an allowance of $36.1 million allocated to them. The remaining $13.0 million and $9.9 million of nonaccrual loans at December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively, are loans under $500,000 that were not individually evaluated for impairment.
Nonaccrual, Past Due and Restructured Loans
Total nonperforming assets (nonaccrual loans and OREO), excluding covered assets, were $388.0 million, or 3.30 percent of total loans and OREO, excluding covered assets, at March 31, 2010, compared with $442.0 million, or 3.62 percent, at December 31, 2009, and $326.3 million, or 2.65 percent, at March 31, 2009. The Company had OREO of $58.0 million, $53.3 million and $12.6 million at March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively. Nonperforming covered assets consist of OREO of $77.5 million at March 31, 2010 and $60.6 million at December 31, 2009.
Troubled debt restructured loans were $17.1 million, before specific reserves of $2.2 million, at March 31, 2010. Troubled debt restructured loans were $11.2 million, before specific reserves of $1.0 million, at December 31, 2009. At March 31, 2009, the Company had no troubled debt restructured loans. There were no related commitments to lend additional funds on restructured loans at March 31, 2010.
The following table presents information about nonaccrual loans, OREO and loans which are contractually past due 90 days or more as to interest or principal payments and still accruing:

Company policy requires that a loan be placed on nonaccrual status if either principal or interest payments are 90 days past due, unless the loan is both well secured and in process of collection, or if full collection of interest or principal becomes uncertain, regardless of the time period involved. Loans accounted for under ASC 310-30 are generally considered accruing and performing loans as the loans accrete interest income over the estimated life of the loan when cash flows are reasonably estimable. Accordingly, acquired impaired loans that are contractually past due are still considered to be accruing and performing loans. If the timing and amount of future cash flows is not reasonably estimable, the loans may be classified as nonaccrual loans and interest income is not recognized until the timing and amount of future cash flows can be reasonably estimated.
Loans 30 to 89 days delinquent, excluding covered loans, were $42.0 million at March 31, 2010, $55.7 million at December 31, 2009 and $154.7 million at March 31, 2009. Covered loans that are 30 to 89 days delinquent were $65.2 million at March 31, 2010 and $107.7 million at December 31, 2009. Loans 90 days or more past due on accrual status, excluding covered loans, were $1.7 million at March 31, 2010, $5.7 million at December 31, 2009 and $16.3 million at
March 31, 2009. Covered loans that were 90 days or more past due on accrual status were $323.6 million at March 31, 2010 and $173.3 million at December 31, 2009.
Nonaccrual loans were $330.0 million at March 31, 2010, a decrease from $388.7 million at December 31, 2009 and an increase from $313.6 million at March 31, 2009. Net charge-offs in the first quarter of 2010 were $49.5 million, or 1.68 percent of average loans and leases, excluding covered loans, compared to $58.7 million, or 1.93 percent, for the fourth quarter of 2009, and $33.6 million, or 1.10 percent, for the first quarter of 2009. In accordance with the Companys allowance for loan and lease losses methodology and in response to fluctuations in nonaccrual loans and net charge-offs, the Company recorded a provision for loan and lease losses of $55.0 million for the first quarter of 2010 compared to $80.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 and $50.0 million for the first quarter of 2009. The allowance for loan and lease losses increased to $292.8 million as of March 31, 2010, from $288.5 million as of December 31, 2009 and $241.6 million as of March 31, 2009. The ratio of the allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of total loans and leases, excluding covered loans increased to 2.50 percent at March 31, 2010 from 2.38 percent at December 31, 2009 and 1.96 percent at March 31, 2009. The allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of nonperforming assets, excluding covered assets, was 75.5 percent, 65.3 percent, and 74.0 percent at March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively. The Company believes that its allowance for loan and lease losses continues to be adequate.

In addition to loans disclosed above as past due or nonaccrual, management has also identified $61.4 million of loans to 43 borrowers as of April 28, 2010, where the ability to comply with the present loan payment terms in the future is questionable. However, the inability of the borrowers to comply with repayment terms was not sufficiently probable to place the loan on nonaccrual status at March 31, 2010, and the identification of these loans is not necessarily indicative of whether the loans will be placed on nonaccrual status. This amount was determined based on analysis of information known to management about the borrowers financial condition and current economic conditions. As of February 11, 2010, management had identified $73.7 million of loans to 45 borrowers, where the ability to comply with the loan payment terms in the future was questionable. Managements classification of credits as nonaccrual, restructured or problems does not necessarily indicate that the principal is uncollectible in whole or part.
Other Real Estate Owned
OREO was $135.6 million, $113.9 million and $12.6 million as of March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively. The OREO balance at March 31, 2010 includes covered OREO of $77.5 million compared with $60.6 million at December 31, 2009. Covered OREO represents OREO acquired from the FDIC-assisted acquisition of ICB that is subject to a loss sharing agreement. Excluding covered OREO, the increase in remaining OREO was a result of new foreclosures, offset by sales and valuation write-downs. In the first quarter of 2010, the Company recognized valuation write-downs totaling $11.0 million on OREO. There were no valuation write-downs of OREO in the first quarter of 2009. The Company recognized a $0.6 million net gain on the sale of OREO, excluding covered OREO, in the first quarter of 2010. There were no gains or losses on the sale of OREO in the first quarter of 2009.

Deposits
Deposits totaled $16.96 billion, $17.38 billion and $13.69 billion at March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively. The decrease in period end deposits from December 31, 2009 was due to planned withdrawals of high-priced certificates of deposits that had been assumed in the ICB acquisition. Total ICB deposits were $919.7 million as of March 31, 2010 compared to $1.67 billion as of December 31, 2010. Core deposits, which include noninterest-bearing deposits and interest-bearing deposits excluding time deposits of $100,000 and over, provide a stable source of low cost funding. Core deposits totaled $15.83 billion, $15.73 billion and $12.25 billion at March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively, and represented 93 percent, 91 percent and 90 percent of total deposits for the same periods.
Average deposits totaled $16.86 billion for the first quarter of 2010, an increase of 7 percent from $15.73 billion for the fourth quarter of 2009, and 31 percent from $12.84 billion the first quarter of 2009. Deposit growth from the year-earlier period has been significant as depositors have placed an increasing emphasis on safety in this economic environment. Average non-interest bearing deposits for the first quarter of 2010 decreased 3 percent from the fourth quarter of 2009 compared with an increase of 27 percent from the first quarter of 2009. Treasury Services deposit balances, which consists primarily of title, escrow and property management deposits, averaged $1.08 billion in the first quarter of 2010, up 44 percent from the same period in 2009 and 2 percent from the fourth quarter of 2009 due to the addition of new clients, an increase in residential real estate activity and a modest improvement in commercial real estate and apartment financing.
Borrowed Funds
Borrowed funds provide an additional source of funding for loan growth, although increased deposit growth in 2009 reduced the Companys short-term borrowings balance. Short-term borrowings include federal funds purchased, securities sold under repurchase agreements, treasury tax and loan notes and FHLB borrowings. The average balance of short-term borrowings decreased to $300.9 million for the first quarter of 2010, from $237.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 and $841.2 million for the first quarter of 2009.
Other borrowings include ten-year subordinated notes issued by the Bank and Corporation, senior notes issued by the Corporation and trust preferred securities. The average balance of other borrowings was $811.1 million for the first quarter of 2010, compared to $638.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 and $407.5 million for the first quarter of 2009.
Off-Balance Sheet
In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, letters of credit, and financial guarantees; and to invest in private
equity and affordable housing funds. These instruments involve, to varying degress, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount reflected in the consolidated balance sheets.
Exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit, letters of credit, and financial guarantees written is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a client as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since a portion of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each clients creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis.
The Company had off-balance sheet credit commitments aggregating $4.79 billion at March 31, 2010, compared with $4.68 billion and $5.32 billion at March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively. Substantially all of the Companys loan commitments are on a variable rate basis and are comprised primarily of real estate and commercial loan commitments. In addition, the Company had $575.1 million outstanding in bankers acceptances and letters of credit of which $561.3 million relate to standby letters of credit at March 31, 2010. At December 31, 2009, the Company had $578.1 million in outstanding bankers acceptances and letters of credit of which $567.3 million relate to standby letters of credit. At March 31, 2009, the Company had $609.6 million in outstanding bankers acceptances and letters of credit of which $598.5 million relate to standby letters of credit.
As of March 31, 2010, the Company had private equity fund, alternative investment fund and other commitments of $68.4 million, of which $51.6 million was funded. As of December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009, the Company had private equity and alternative investment fund commitments of $68.4 million and $68.7 million, respectively, of which $51.3 million and $42.1 million was funded.
In connection with the liquidation of an investment acquired in a previous bank merger, the Company has an outstanding long-term indemnity. The maximum liability under the indemnity is $23 million, but the Company does not expect to make any payments under the terms of this indemnity.
Fair Value Measurements
Under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, fair value for financial reporting purposes is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly market transaction between market participants at the measurement date (reporting date). Fair value is based on an exit price in the principal market or most advantageous market in which the reporting entity could transact.
For each asset and liability required to be reported at fair value, management has identified the unit of account and valuation premise to be applied for purposes of measuring fair value. The unit of account is the level at which an asset or liability is aggregated or disaggregated. .The valuation premise is a concept that determines whether an asset is measured on a standalone basis or in combination with other assets. The Company measures its assets and liabilities on a standalone basis then aggregates assets and liabilities with similar characteristics for disclosure purposes.
Fair Value Hierarchy
Management employs market standard valuation techniques in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities. Inputs used in valuation techniques are based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The inputs used in valuation techniques are prioritized as follows:
Level 1Quoted market prices in an active market for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2Observable inputs including quoted prices (other than Level 1) in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities and default rates, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entitys own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available.
The Company utilizes quoted market prices to measure fair value to the extent available (Level 1). If market prices are not available, fair value measurements are based on models that use primarily market-based assumptions including interest rate yield curves, anticipated prepayment rates, default rates and foreign currency rates (Level 2). In certain circumstances, market observable inputs for model-based valuation techniques may not be available and the Company is required to make judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in estimating the fair value of a financial instrument (Level 3). Refer to Note 3, Fair Value Measurements, to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on fair value measurements.
At March 31, 2010, $4.05 billion, or approximately 20 percent, of the Companys total assets were recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The majority of these financial assets were valued using Level 1 or Level 2 inputs. Less than a quarter of one percent of total assets were measured using Level 3 inputs. At March 31, 2010, $19.6 million of the Companys total liabilities were recorded at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 1 or Level 2 inputs.
At March 31, 2010, $226.5 million, or approximately 1 percent of the Companys total assets, were recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets were measured using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs. No liabilities were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at March 31, 2010.

(1) Tangible common shareholders equity to tangible assets is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents common shareholders equity less identifiable intangible assets and goodwill divided by total assets less identifiable assets and goodwill. Management reviews tangible common shareholders equity to tangible assets in evaluating the Companys capital levels and has included this ratio in response to market participant interest in tangible common shareholders equity as a measure of capital. See reconciliation of the GAAP financial measure to this non-GAAP financial measure below.
(2) Tier 1 common shareholders equity to risk-based assets is calculated by dividing (a) Tier 1 capital less non-common components including qualifying perpetual preferred stock, qualifying noncontrolling interest in subsidiaries and qualifying trust preferred securities by (b) risk-weighted assets. Tier 1 capital and risk-weighted assets are calculated in accordance with applicable bank regulatory guidelines. This ratio is a non-GAAP measure that is used by investors, analysts and bank regulatory agencies to assess the capital position of financial services companies. Management reviews this measure in evaluating the Companys capital levels and has included this measure in response to market participant interest in the Tier 1 common shareholders equity to risk based assets ratio. See reconciliation of the GAAP financial measure to this non-GAAP financial measure below.

Tier 1 capital ratios at March 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009 include preferred stock issued by real estate investment trust subsidiaries of the Bank, which is included in Noncontrolling interest in the consolidated balance sheets, and trust preferred securities issued by unconsolidated capital trust subsidiaries of the holding company. Tier 1 capital ratios for December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2009 also include preferred stock issued under the Treasurys TARP Capital Purchase Program, which was repurchased in two separate transactions in December 2009 and March 2010.
On November 21, 2008, City National Corporation received aggregate proceeds of $400 million from the United States Department of the Treasury (Treasury) under the TARP Capital Purchase Program in exchange for 400,000 shares of cumulative perpetual preferred stock and a 10-year warrant to purchase up to 1,128,668 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $53.16 per share. The preferred stock and warrant were recorded in equity on a relative fair value basis at the time of issuance. The preferred stock was valued by calculating the present value of expected cash flows and the warrant was valued using an option valuation model. The allocated values of the preferred stock and warrant were approximately $389.9 million and $10.1 million, respectively. Cumulative dividends on the preferred stock were payable quarterly at the rate of 5 percent for the first five years and increasing to 9 percent thereafter. The warrant has a 10-year term and is immediately exercisable upon its issuance, with an exercise price, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, equal to $53.16 per share of the common stock.
In December 2009, the Corporation repurchased $200 million, or 200,000 shares, of the TARP preferred stock that it had sold to the Treasury. In March 2010, the Corporation repurchased the remaining $200 million, or 200,000 shares, of TARP preferred stock. The repurchase on March 2010 resulted in a one-time, after-tax, non-cash charge of $3.8 million. In April 2010, the Corporation repurchased the warrant in full for $18.5 million.
The ratio of period-end equity to period-end assets as of March 31, 2010 was 9.29 percent, compared to 9.55 percent at December 31, 2009 and was 12.10 percent as of March 31, 2009.
LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT
The Company continues to manage its liquidity through the combination of core deposits, certificates of deposits, short-term federal funds purchased, sales of securities under repurchase agreements, collateralized borrowing lines at the Federal Reserve Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco and a portfolio of securities available-for-sale. Liquidity is also provided by maturities and pay downs on securities and loans.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
Market risk results from the variability of future cash flows and earnings due to changes in the financial markets. These changes may also impact the fair values of loans, securities and borrowings. The values of financial instruments may fluctuate because of interest rate changes, foreign currency exchange rate changes or other market changes. The Companys asset/liability management process entails the evaluation, measurement and management of interest rate risk, market risk and liquidity risk. The principal objective of asset/liability management is to optimize net interest income subject to margin volatility and liquidity constraints over the long term. Margin volatility results when the rate reset (or repricing) characteristics of assets are materially different from those of the Companys liabilities. The Board of Directors approves asset/liability policies and annually reviews and approves the limits within which the risks must be managed. The Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO), which is comprised of senior management and key risk management individuals, sets risk management targets within the broader limits approved by the Board, monitors the risks and periodically reports results to the Board.
A quantitative and qualitative discussion about market risk is included on pages 64 to 69 of the Corporations Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Net Interest Simulation: As part of its overall interest rate risk management process, the Company performs stress tests on net interest income projections based on a variety of factors, including interest rate levels, changes in the relationship between the prime rate and short-term interest rates, and the shape of the yield curve. The Company uses a simulation model to estimate the severity of this risk and to develop mitigation strategies, including interest-rate hedges. The magnitude of the change is determined from historical volatility analysis. The assumptions used in the model are updated periodically and reviewed and
approved by ALCO. In addition, the Board of Directors has adopted limits within which interest rate exposure must be contained. Within these broader limits, ALCO sets management guidelines to further contain interest rate risk exposure.
The Company is naturally asset-sensitive due to its large portfolio of rate-sensitive commercial loans that are funded in part by noninterest bearing and rate-stable core deposits. As a result, if there are no significant changes in the mix of assets and liabilities, the net interest margin increases when interest rates increase and decreases when interest rates decrease. The Company uses a simulation model to estimate the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income. Interest rate scenarios include stable rates and a 400 basis point parallel shift in the yield curve occurring gradually over a two-year period. The model is used to project net interest income assuming no changes in loans or deposit mix as it stood at March 31, 2010 as well as a dynamic simulation that includes changes to balance sheet mix in response to changes in interest rates. In the dynamic simulation, loans and deposit balances are modeled based on experience in previous vigorous economic recovery cycles. Loan yields and deposit rates change over the simulation horizon based on current spreads and adjustment factors that are statistically derived using historical rate and balance sheet data.
As of March 31, 2010, the Federal funds target rate was at a range of zero percent to 0.25 percent. Further declines in interest rates are not expected to significantly reduce earning asset yields but are expected to lower interest expense somewhat thus improving net interest margin slightly. At March 31, 2010, a gradual 400 basis point parallel increase in the yield curve over the next 24 months assuming a static balance sheet would result in an increase in projected net interest income of approximately 0.9 percent in year one and a 6.1 percent increase in year two. This compares to an increase in projected net interest income of 0.6 percent in year one and a 4.8 percent increase in year two at March 31, 2009. Interest rate sensitivity has increased slightly due to changes in the mix of the balance sheet, primarily significant growth in non-rate sensitive deposits, reducing reliance on other rate-sensitive funding sources. The dynamic simulation incorporates balance sheet changes resulting from a gradual 400 basis point increase in rates. In combination, these rate and balance sheet effects result in an increase in projected net interest income of approximately 9.3 percent in year one and 25.0 percent increase in year two. The Companys interest rate risk exposure remains within Board limits and ALCO guidelines.
The companys loan portfolio includes floating rate loans which are tied to short-term market index rates, adjustable rate loans for which the initial rate is fixed for a period from one year to as much as ten years, and fixed-rate loans whose interest rate does not change through the life of the transaction. The following table shows the composition of the Companys loan portfolio by major loan category as of March 31, 2010. Each loan category is further divided into Floating, Adjustable and Fixed rate components. Floating rate loans are generally tied to either the Prime rate or to a LIBOR based index.

It is common for floating rate loans to have a floor rate which is absolute and below which the loan rate will not fall even though market rates may be unusually low. At March 31, 2010, $5.70 billion (forty-two percent) of the Companys loan portfolio was floating rate, of which $3.25 billion (fifty-seven percent) was not impacted by rate floors. This is because either the loan contract does not specify a minimum or floor rate, or because the contractual loan rate is above the minimum rate specified in the loan contract. Of the loans which were at their contractual minimum rate, $1.34 billion (twenty-four percent) were within 0.75 percent of the contractual loan rate absent the effects of the floor. Thus, the rate on these loans will be relatively responsive to increases in the underlying Prime or LIBOR index, and all will adjust upwards should the underlying index increase by more than 0.75 percent. Only $159.9 million of floating rate loans have floors that are more than 2.00 percent above the contractual rate formula. Thus, the yield on the Companys floating rate loan portfolio is
expected to be highly responsive to changes in market rates. The following table shows the balance of loans in the Floating Rate portfolio stratified by spread between the current loan rate and the floor rate as of March 31, 2010:

Economic Value of Equity: The economic value equity (EVE) model is used to evaluate the vulnerability of the market value of shareholders equity to changes in interest rates. The EVE model calculates the expected cash flow of all of the Companys assets and liabilities under sharply higher and lower interest rate scenarios. The present value of these cash flows is calculated by discounting them using the interest rates for that scenario. The difference between the present value of assets and the present value of liabilities in each scenario is the EVE. The assumptions about the timing of cash flows, level of interest rates and shape of the yield curve are the same as those used in the net interest income simulation. They are updated periodically and are reviewed by ALCO at least annually.
The model indicates that the EVE is somewhat vulnerable to a sudden and substantial increase in interest rates. As of March 31, 2010, an instantaneous 200 basis point increase in interest rates results in a 5.3 percent decline in EVE. This compares to a 4.4 percent decline a year-earlier. The higher sensitivity is due to an increase in the duration gap between earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities resulting from the Imperial Capital Bank acquisition. Measurement of a 200 basis point decrease in rates as of March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009 is not meaningful due to the current low rate environment.
The following table presents the notional amount and fair value of the Companys interest rate swap agreements according to the specific asset or liability hedged:

(1) Net fair value is the estimated net gain (loss) to settle derivative contracts. The net fair value is the sum of the mark-to-market asset, mark-to-market liability (if applicable) and net interest receivable or payable.
The Companys swap agreements require the deposit of cash or marketable debt securities as collateral based on certain risk thresholds. These requirements apply individually to the Corporation and to the Bank. Additionally, certain of the Companys swap agreements contain credit-risk-related contingent features. Under these agreements, the collateral
requirements are based on the Companys credit rating from the major credit rating agencies. The amount of collateral required varies by counterparty based on a range of credit ratings that correspond with exposure thresholds established in the derivative agreements. If the credit rating on the Companys debt were to fall below the level associated with a particular exposure threshold and the derivatives with a counterparty are in a net liability position that exceeds that threshold, the counterparty could request immediate payment or delivery of collateral for the difference between the net liability amount and the exposure threshold. The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a net liability position on March 31, 2010 was $5.4 million. The Company was not required to deliver collateral because the net liability position did not exceed the exposure threshold amount at the Companys current credit rating.
Interest-rate swap agreements involve the exchange of fixed and variable-rate interest payments based upon a notional principal amount and maturity date. The Companys interest-rate swaps had $7.6 million and $13.5 million of credit risk exposure at March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The credit exposure represents the cost to replace, on a present value basis and at current market rates, all contracts by trading counterparty having an aggregate positive market value, net of margin collateral received. The Company enters into master netting agreements with swap counterparties to mitigate credit risk. Under these agreements, the net amount due from or payable to each counterparty is settled on the contract payment date. Collateral valued at $13.0 million and $23.5 million had been received from swap counterparties at March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Additionally, the Company had delivered collateral valued at $1.1 million to a counterparty at March 31, 2010.
The Company also offers various derivative products to clients and enters into derivative transactions in due course. These derivative contracts are offset by paired trades with unrelated third parties. These transactions are not linked to specific Company assets or liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets or to forecasted transactions in a hedge relationship and, therefore, do not qualify for hedge accounting. The contracts are marked-to-market each reporting period with changes in fair value recorded as part of Other noninterest income in the consolidated statements of income. Fair values are determined from verifiable third-party sources that have considerable experience with the derivative markets. The Company provides client data to the third party source for purposes of calculating the credit valuation component of the fair value measurement of client derivative contracts. At March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had entered into derivative contracts with clients (and offsetting derivative contracts with counterparties) having a notional balance of $1.09 billion and $742.8 million, respectively.
