forward-looking
statements, which can be identified by the use of words such as
“estimate,”
“project,”
“believe,”
“intend,”
“anticipate,”
“plan,”
“seek,”
“expect”
and words of similar meaning. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:
statements of our goals, intentions and expectations;
statements regarding our business plans, prospects, growth and operating strategies;
statements regarding the asset quality of our loan and investment portfolios; and
estimates of our risks and future costs and benefits.
These

are
based
on
current
beliefs
and
expectations
of
our
management
and
are
inherently
subject
to
significant
business,
economic
and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to
assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject to change.
The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-
looking statements:
changes
in
laws
or
government
regulations
or
policies
affecting
financial
institutions,
including
changes
in
regulatory
fees
and
capital
requirements;
general
economic
conditions,
either
nationally
or
in
our
market
areas,
that
are
worse
than
expected;
competition among depository and other financial institutions;
inflation and changes in the interest rate environment that reduce our margins or reduce the fair value of financial instruments;
adverse changes in the securities markets;
our
ability
to
enter
new
markets
successfully
and
capitalize
on
growth
opportunities;
our ability to successfully integrate acquired entities, if any;
changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits;
changes in our organization, compensation and benefit plans;
our ability to continue to increase and manage our commercial and residential real estate, multi-family, and commercial and industrial loans;
possible impairments of securities held by us, including those issued by government entities and government sponsored enterprises;
the level of future deposit premium assessments;
the
impact
of
the
current
recession
on
our
loan
portfolio
(including
cash
flow
and
collateral
values),
investment
portfolio,
customers
and
capital
market activities;
the impact of the current governmental effort to restructure the U.S. financial and regulatory system;
changes in the financial performance and/or condition of our borrowers; and
the effect of changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the regulatory agencies, as well as the Securities and Exchange
Commission, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the Financial Accounting Standards Board and other accounting standard setters.
Because of these and other uncertainties, our actual future results may be materially different from the results indicated by these forward-looking statements.
