Management does not believe that any individual unrealized loss as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 is other than a temporary impairment. These unrealized losses are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates. As of June 30, 2012, management does not have the intent to sell any of the securities classified as available for sale and management believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell any such securities before a recovery of cost. |
