Forward-looking Statements
Management of the Corporation has made forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q. These forward-looking statements may be subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future results of operations of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. When words such as "believes," "expects," "anticipates" or similar expressions occur in the Form 10-Q, management is making forward-looking statements.
Note that many factors, some of which are discussed elsewhere in this report and in the documents that are incorporated by reference, could affect the future financial results of the Corporation and its subsidiaries, both individually and collectively, and could cause those results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements contained or incorporated by reference in this Form 10-Q. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
?Operating, legal and regulatory risks;
?Credit risk, including an increase in nonperforming assets requiring loss provisions and the incurrence of carrying costs related to nonperforming assets;
?Interest rate fluctuations which could increase our cost of funds or decrease our yield on earning assets and therefore reduce our net interest income;
?Declines in the market value of investment securities considered to be other-than-temporary;
?Unavailability of capital when needed, or availability at less than favorable terms;
?Unauthorized disclosure of sensitive or confidential client or customer information, whether through a breach of our computer systems or otherwise, which may adversely affect the Corporation's operations, net income or reputation;
?Inability to achieve merger-related synergies, and difficulties in integrating the business and operations of acquired institutions;
?A prolonged economic downturn or excessive inflation;
?Political and competitive forces affecting banking, securities, asset management and credit services businesses;
?Occurrence of natural or man-made disasters or calamities, including health emergencies, the spread of infectious diseases, or pandemics;
?The effects of and changes in the rate of
?Future legislative or administrative changes to
?Future changes in federal or state tax laws or tax rates;
?Enacted financial reform legislation, e.g., Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, may have a significant impact on the Corporation's business and results of operations;
?The risk that management's analyses of these risks and forces could be incorrect and/or that the strategies developed to address them could be unsuccessful; and

Net Interest Income
Unless otherwise noted, this section discusses interest income and interest expense amounts as reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income, which are not presented on a tax equivalent basis.
Net interest income for the quarter ended
The Corporation's net interest margin, computed as interest income (tax-equivalent basis) annualized as a percentage of average interest earning assets, was 2.80 percent for the second quarter 2021 compared to the 3.07 percent for the second quarter 2020. The net interest margin contraction was a result of lower interest rates on loans and higher volume and rate on long-term debt, partially offset by lower rates on interest bearing demand and time deposits.

Net interest income for the six months ended
The Corporation's net interest margin, computed as interest income (tax-equivalent basis) annualized as a percentage of average interest earning assets, was 2.91 percent for the first six months of 2021, representing a decrease compared to the 3.25 percent net interest margin for the first six months of 2020.

RISK MANAGEMENT
Credit Risk Management
Credit risk represents the possibility that a loan client, counterparty or
issuer may not perform in accordance with contractual terms, posing one of the
most significant risks of loss to the Corporation. Accordingly, the Corporation
emphasizes the management of credit risk, and has established a lending policy
which management believes is sound given the nature and scope of our operations.
The Credit Risk Management section included in Item 7 of the Corporation's
previously filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets, as shown in the table below, are asset categories that
pose the greatest risk of loss. The level of nonperforming assets at
The Corporation regularly monitors large and criticized assets in its commercial loan portfolio recognizing that prolonged low economic growth, or a weakening economy, could have negative effects on these commercial borrowers. Nonperforming assets are monitored and managed for collection of these accounts. Collection efforts, including modification of contractual terms for individual accounts based on prevailing market conditions and liquidation of collateral assets, are employed to maximize recovery. A special assets committee meets regularly, at a minimum quarterly, to review nonperforming assets. We generally rely on appraisals performed by independent licensed appraisers to determine the value of real estate collateral for impaired collateral-dependent loans. Generally, an appraisal is performed when: an account reaches 90 days past due, unless a certified appraisal was completed within the past twelve months; market values have changed significantly; the condition of the property has changed significantly; or the existing appraisal is outdated based upon regulatory or policy requirements. In instances where the value of the collateral, net of costs to sell, is less than the net carrying amount for impaired commercial related loans, a specific loss allowance is established for the difference. Further provisions for loan losses may be required for nonaccrual loans as additional information becomes available or conditions change. When it is probable that some portion or an entire loan balance will not be collected, that amount is charged off as loss against the allowance.

Nonperforming loans consist of nonaccrual loans and accruing loans 90 days or
more past due. We generally place a loan on nonaccrual status and cease accruing
interest income (i.e., recognize interest income on a cash basis, as long as the
loan is sufficiently collateralized) when loan payment performance is
unsatisfactory and the loan is past due 90 days or more. A loan is returned to
interest accruing status when we determine that circumstances have improved to
the extent that all of the principal and interest amounts contractually due are
current for at least six consecutive payments and future payments are reasonably
assured. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest represent
loans that are contractually past due, but are well collateralized and in the
process of collection. As of

Troubled Debt Restructurings
Troubled debt restructurings pertain to loans whose terms have been modified to
include a concession that we would not ordinarily consider due to the debtor's
financial difficulties. Concessions granted under a troubled debt restructuring
typically involve a reduction of interest rate lower than the current market
rate for new debt with similar risk, the deferral of payments or extension of
the stated maturity date. Troubled debt restructurings are evaluated for
impairment if they have been restructured during the most recent calendar year,
or if they cease to perform in accordance with the modified terms. As of

Allowance for Loan Losses
Although the Corporation believes that it maintains sound credit policies, certain loans deteriorate and must be charged off as losses. The allowance for loan losses is maintained to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio. The allowance is increased by provisions charged to expense and is reduced by loan charge-offs, net of recoveries. The allowance is based upon management's continuous evaluation of the loan portfolio coupled with a formal review of adequacy on a quarterly basis, which is subject to review and approval by the Board.
The allowance for loan losses consists primarily of two components: specific allowances for individually impaired commercial loans and allowances calculated for pools of loans. The Corporation uses an internal risk rating system to evaluate individual loans. Loans are segmented into industry groups or pools with similar characteristics, and an allowance for loan losses is allocated to each segment based on quantitative factors such as recent loss history (two-year rolling average of net charge-offs) and qualitative factors, such as the results of internal and external credit reviews, changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio, adequacy of collateral, and general economic conditions. Determining the level of the allowance for probable loan losses at any given period is subjective, particularly during deteriorating or uncertain economic periods, and requires that we make estimates using assumptions. There is also the potential for adjustment to the allowance as a result of regulatory examinations.
The following tables presents an analysis of the activity in the allowance for
loan losses for the three and six months ended

Liquidity Risk Management
Maintaining adequate liquidity provides the Corporation with the ability to meet
financial obligations to depositors, loan clients, employees, and shareholders
on a timely and cost effective basis in the normal course of business.
Additionally, adequate liquidity provides funds for growth and business
opportunities as they arise. Liquidity is generated from transactions relating
to both the Corporation's assets and liabilities. The primary sources of
asset liquidity are funds received from client loan payments, investment
maturities and cash inflows from mortgage-backed securities, and the net
proceeds of asset sales. The primary sources of liability liquidity are deposit
growth, and funds obtained from short-term borrowings and long-term debt. The
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, included in this report, present the
changes in cash from operating, investing and financing activities. At
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Corporation's financial statements do not reflect various commitments that
are made in the normal course of business, which may involve some liquidity
risk. These commitments consist primarily of commitments to grant new loans,
unfunded commitments under existing loan facilities, and letters of credit
issued under the same standards as on-balance sheet instruments. Unused
