ITEM 1.
|
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
|
The
Company
Fentura Financial, Inc. (the “Corporation” or “Fentura”) is a bank holding company
headquartered in Fenton, Michigan that owns one subsidiary bank (see “The Bank” below) and Fentura Holdings, LLC. a separate entity formed in 2011 to hold assets assumed upon the sale of a former bank subsidiary. All information in this
Item 1 is as of December 31, 2011. The Corporation’s subsidiary bank operates 8 community banking offices offering a full range of banking services principally to individuals, small businesses, and government entities throughout
mid-Michigan. At the close of business on December 31, 2011, the Corporation had assets of $299 million, deposits of $266 million, and shareholders’ equity of $15 million. Trust assets under management totaled $88 million.
Fentura was incorporated in 1987 to serve as the holding company of its sole subsidiary bank, The State Bank (“TSB” or the
“Bank”). TSB traces its origins to its predecessor, The Commercial Savings Bank of Fenton, which was incorporated in 1898.
The Corporation’s principal executive offices are located at 175 North Leroy, Fenton, Michigan 48430-0725, and its telephone number is (810) 750-8725.
The Bank
TSB’s original predecessor was incorporated as a state banking corporation under the laws of Michigan on September 16, 1898
under the name “The Commercial Savings Bank of Fenton.” In 1931, it changed its name to State Savings Bank of Fenton, and in 1988 became The State Bank. For over 100 years, TSB has been engaged in the general banking business in the
Fenton, Michigan area. TSB is headquartered in Fenton and considers its primary service area to be portions of Genesee, Oakland, and Livingston counties in Michigan. As of December 31, 2011, TSB operated three offices and an operations center
in the City of Fenton, Michigan, one office in the City of Linden, Michigan, one office in the Village of Holly, Michigan, two offices in the Township of Grand Blanc, Michigan. Its main office is located in downtown Fenton. In Brighton, Michigan a
single branch office operates doing business as Livingston Community Bank. Livingston Community Bank operates as a semi-autonomous banking division of The State Bank.
The Bank is a community-oriented provider of financial services engaged in the business of general commercial banking. The Bank’s activities include investing in state and federal securities,
accepting demand deposits, savings and other time deposits, extending retail, commercial, consumer and real estate loans to individuals and businesses, providing safe deposit boxes, transmitting funds and providing other services generally
associated with full service commercial banking. Lending is focused on individuals and small businesses in the local markets served by the Bank. In addition, TSB operates a trust department offering a full range of fiduciary services.
The bank is a state bank, chartered under the Michigan Banking Code. It is not a member of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System (the “Federal Reserve Board”), but the deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”). See “Supervision and Regulation” below.
As of December 31, 2011, TSB employed 96 full time personnel, including 33 officers, and an additional 33 part time employees. The
Bank considers its employee relations to be excellent.
Competition
The financial services industry is highly competitive. The Bank competes with other commercial banks, many of which are subsidiaries of
bank holding companies, for loans, deposits, trust accounts, and
1
other business on the basis of interest rates, fees, convenience and quality of service. The Bank also competes with a variety of other financial services organizations including savings and loan
associations, finance companies, mortgage banking companies, brokerage firms, credit unions and other financial organizations. Many of the Bank’s competitors have substantially greater resources than the Bank.
Supervision and Regulation
The following is a summary of certain statutes and regulations affecting the Corporation and the Bank. This summary is qualified in its entirety by such statutes and regulations. A change in applicable
laws or regulations may have a material effect on the Corporation, the Bank and the business of the Corporation and the Bank.
General
Financial institutions and their holding companies are extensively regulated under federal and state law. Consequently,
the growth and earnings performance of the Corporation and the Bank can be affected not only by management decisions and general economic conditions, but also by the statutes administered by, and the regulations and policies of, various governmental
regulatory authorities. Those authorities include, but are not limited to, the Federal Reserve Board, the FDIC, the Commissioner of the Michigan Office of Financial and Insurance Regulation (“Commissioner”), the Internal Revenue Service,
and state taxing authorities. The effect of such statutes, regulations and policies can be significant, and cannot be predicted with a high degree of certainty.
Federal and state laws and regulations generally applicable to financial institutions and their holding companies regulate, among other things, the scope of business, investments, reserves against
deposits, capital levels relative to operations, lending activities and practices, the nature and amount of collateral for loans, the establishment of branches, mergers, consolidations and dividends. The system of supervision and regulation
applicable to the Corporation and the Banks establishes a comprehensive framework for their respective operations and is intended primarily for the protection of the FDIC’s deposit insurance funds, the depositors of the Bank, and the public,
rather than shareholders of the Bank or the Corporation.
Federal law and regulations establish supervisory standards
applicable to the lending activities of the Bank, including internal controls, credit underwriting, loan documentation and loan-to-value ratios for loans secured by real property.
Recent Legislation
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) became law on July 21, 2010. The Dodd-Frank Act constitutes one of the most significant efforts in recent history to comprehensively overhaul the financial services industry and will affect large
and small financial institutions alike. While some of the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act took effect immediately, many of the provisions have delayed effective dates and their implementation will require the issuance of numerous new regulations.
The Dodd-Frank Act deals with a wide range of regulatory issues including, but not limited to: mandating new capital
requirements that would require certain bank holding companies to be subject to the same capital requirements as their depository institutions; eliminating (with certain exceptions) trust preferred securities; codifying the Federal Reserve’s
Source of Strength doctrine; creating a Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (the “BCFP”) which will have the power to exercise broad regulatory, supervisory and enforcement authority concerning both existing and new consumer financial
protection laws; permanently increasing federal deposit insurance protection to $250,000 per depositor; extending the unlimited coverage for qualifying non-interest bearing transactional accounts until December 31, 2012; increasing the ratio of
reserves to deposits minimum to 1.35 percent; assessing premiums for deposit insurance coverage on average consolidated total assets less average tangible equity, rather than on a deposit base; authorizing the assessment of examination fees;
establishing new standards and
2
restrictions on the origination of mortgages; permitting financial institutions to pay interest on business checking accounts; limiting interchange fees payable on debit card transactions; and
implementing requirements on boards, corporate governance and executive compensation for public companies.
In July 2011, the BCFP took over
many of the consumer financial functions that had been assigned to the federal banking agencies and other designated agencies. The BCFP has broad rule making authority. There is considerable uncertainty as to how the BCFP actually will exercise its
regulators, supervisors, examination and enforcement authority.
The complete impact of the Dodd-Frank Act is unknown since many of the
substantive requirements will be contained in the many rules and regulations to be implemented. However, the Dodd-Frank Act has had and will have significant and immediate effects on banks and bank holding companies in many areas. It is expected
that the Dodd-Frank Act will increase the cost of doing business in the banking industry.
In June 2010, the Federal Reserve issued final
guidance to ensure that incentive compensation arrangements at financial institutions take into account risk and are consistent with safe and sound practices. The guidance does not set forth any formulas or pay caps, but sets forth certain
principles which companies would be required to follow with respect to certain employees and groups of employees that may expose the institution to material amounts of risk.
The Corporation
General
. The Corporation, as the sole
shareholder of the Bank, is a bank holding company and is registered with, and subject to regulation by, the Federal Reserve Board under the Bank Holding Company Act, as amended (the “BHCA”). Under the BHCA, the Corporation is subject to
periodic examination by the Federal Reserve Board, and is required to file with the Federal Reserve Board periodic reports of its operations and such additional information as the Federal Reserve Board may require.
In accordance with Federal Reserve Board policy, the Corporation is expected to act as a source of financial strength to the Bank and to
commit resources to support the Bank in circumstances where the Corporation might not do so absent such policy. In addition, if the Commissioner deems a bank’s capital to be impaired, the Commissioner may require the bank to restore its capital
by a special assessment upon the Corporation as the Bank’s sole shareholder. If the Corporation were to fail to pay any such assessment, the directors of the bank would be required, under Michigan law, to sell the shares of the Bank’s
stock owned by the Corporation to the highest bidder at either a public or private auction and use the proceeds of the sale to restore the Bank’s capital.
The Corporation’s common stock is registered under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). It is therefore subject to the information, proxy solicitation,
insider trading and other restrictions and requirements of the SEC under the Exchange Act. On July 30, 2002, President Bush signed into law the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley Act”). The Sarbanes-Oxley Act provided for
numerous changes to the reporting, accounting, corporate governance and business practices of companies as well as financial and other professionals who have involvement with the U.S. public markets.
Investments and Activities
. Under the BHCA, a bank holding company must obtain Federal Reserve Board approval before:
(i) acquiring, directly or indirectly, ownership or control of any voting shares of another bank or bank holding company if, after such acquisition, it would own or control more than 5% of such shares (unless it already owns or controls the
majority of such shares); (ii) acquiring all or substantially all of the assets of another bank or bank holding company; or (iii) merging or consolidating with another bank holding company. The Federal Reserve Board may allow a bank
holding company to acquire banks located in any state of the United States without regard to geographic restrictions or reciprocity requirements imposed by state law, but subject to certain conditions, including limitations on the aggregate amount
of deposits that may be held by the acquiring holding company and all of its insured depository institution affiliates.
3
The merger or consolidation of an existing bank subsidiary of the Corporation with another
bank, or the acquisition by such a subsidiary of assets of another bank, or the assumption of liability by such a subsidiary to pay any deposits in another bank, will require the prior written approval of the responsible Federal depository
institution regulatory agency under the Bank Merger Act. In addition, in certain such cases, an application to, and the prior approval of, the Federal Reserve Board under the BHCA and/or the Commissioner under the Michigan Banking Code, may be
required.
With certain limited exceptions, the BHCA prohibits any bank holding company from engaging, either directly or
indirectly through a subsidiary, in any activity other than managing or controlling banks unless the proposed non-banking activity is one that the Federal Reserve Board has determined to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling
banks as to be a proper incident thereto. Under current Federal Reserve Board regulations, such permissible non-banking activities include such things as mortgage banking, equipment leasing, securities brokerage, and consumer and commercial finance
company operations. Well-capitalized and well-managed bank holding companies may engage in certain types of non-banking activities without prior notice to, or approval of, the Federal Reserve Board, provided that written notice of the new activity
is given to the Federal Reserve Board within 10 business days after the activity is commenced. If a bank holding company wishes to engage in a non-banking activity by acquiring a going concern, prior notice and/or prior approval will be required,
depending upon the activities in which the company to be acquired is engaged, the size of the company to be acquired and the financial and managerial condition of the acquiring bank holding company.
A bank holding company whose subsidiary depository institutions all are well-capitalized and well-managed and who have Community
Reinvestment Act ratings of at least “satisfactory” may elect to become a financial holding company. A financial holding company is permitted to engage in a broader range of activities than are permitted to bank holding companies.
Those expanded activities include any activity which the Federal Reserve Board (in certain instances in consultation with the
Department of the Treasury) determines, by order or regulation, to be financial in nature or incidental to such financial activity, or to be complementary to a financial activity and not to pose a substantial risk to the safety or soundness of
depository institutions or the financial system generally. Such expanded activities include, among others: insuring, guaranteeing, or indemnifying against loss, harm, damage, illness, disability or death, or issuing annuities, and acting as
principal, agent, or broker for such purposes; providing financial, investment, or economic advisory services, including advising a mutual fund; and underwriting, dealing in, or making a market in securities. The Corporation has not elected to be
treated as a financial holding company.
The BHCA generally does not place territorial restrictions on the domestic activities
of non-bank subsidiaries of bank or financial holding companies.
Federal legislation also prohibits the acquisition of
control of a bank holding company, such as the Corporation, by a person or a group of persons acting in concert, without prior notice to the Federal Reserve Board. Control is defined in certain cases as the acquisition of 10% of the outstanding
shares of a bank holding company.
Capital Requirements
. The Federal Reserve Board uses capital adequacy
guidelines in its examination and regulation of bank holding companies. If capital falls below minimum guidelines, a bank holding company may, among other things, be denied approval to acquire or establish additional banks or non-bank businesses.
These capital guidelines are comparable to those established by the regulatory authorities for the Banks discussed below.
Regulatory Agreements
.
Effective November 2010, the Corporation received a notice from the Federal Reserve
which defined restrictions being placed upon the Holding Company. The restrictions include the declaration or payment of any dividends, the receipt of dividends from the Bank, the repayment of any principal or interest on subordinated debentures or
Trust Preferred Securities, restrictions on debt, any changes in Executive or Senior Management or change in the role of Senior Management. In addition, the notice requires for the Corporation to “maintain sufficient capital” levels.
4
Dividends
. The Corporation is a corporation separate and distinct from the
Bank. Most of the Corporation’s revenues are received by it in the form of dividends paid by the Bank. Thus, the Corporation’s ability to pay dividends to its shareholders is indirectly limited by statutory restrictions on the Bank’s
ability to pay dividends described below. Further, in a policy statement, the Federal Reserve Board has expressed its view that a bank holding company experiencing earnings weaknesses should not pay cash dividends exceeding its net income or which
can only be funded in ways that weaken the bank holding company’s financial health, such as by borrowing. Additionally, the Federal Reserve Board possesses enforcement powers over bank holding companies and their non-bank subsidiaries to
prevent or remedy actions that represent unsafe or unsound practices or violations of applicable statutes and regulations. Among these powers is the ability to proscribe the payment of dividends by banks and bank holding companies. Similar
enforcement powers over the Bank is possessed by the FDIC. The “prompt corrective action” provisions of federal law and regulation authorizes the Federal Reserve Board to restrict the payment of dividends by the Corporation for an insured
bank which fails to meet specified capital levels.
In addition to the restrictions on dividends imposed by the Federal
Reserve Board, the Michigan Business Corporation Act provides that dividends may be legally declared or paid only if after the distribution a corporation, such as the Corporation, can pay its debts as they come due in the usual course of business
and its total assets equal or exceed the sum of its liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of any holders of preferred stock whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving the
distribution.
Effective November 2010, The Federal Reserve notified the Corporation of restrictions being placed upon the
Corporation. Among other restrictions, restrictions include the declaration or payment of any dividends, or the receipt of dividends from the subsidiary Bank. (See
Regulatory Agreements
on page 7.)
Regulatory Developments
.
The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (“EESA”) was enacted on October 3,
2008. Pursuant to EESA, the U.S. Department of Treasury (the “Treasury”) created the Troubled Asset Relief Program’s (“TARP”) Capital Purchase Program (“CPP”) under which the Treasury was authorized to invest in
non-voting, senior preferred stock of U.S. banks and savings associations or their holding companies. The Corporation and the Bank did not participate in the TARP CPP.
The Bank
General
. The Bank is a Michigan banking
corporation, and deposit accounts are insured by the deposit insurance fund of the FDIC. As a FDIC-insured Michigan chartered bank, the Bank is subject to the examination, supervision, reporting and enforcement requirements of the Commissioner,
as the chartering authority for Michigan banks, and the FDIC, as administrator of the deposit insurance fund. These agencies and the federal and state laws applicable to the Bank and its operations, extensively regulate various aspects of the
banking business including, among other things, permissible types and amounts of loans, investments and other activities, capital adequacy, branching, interest rates on loans and on deposits, the maintenance of non-interest bearing reserves on
deposit accounts, and the safety and soundness of banking practices.
Deposit Insurance
. As an FDIC-insured
institution, the Bank is required to pay deposit insurance premium assessments to the deposit insurance fund pursuant to a risk-based assessment system. Effective in 2010 the Dodd-Frank Act permanently raised the basic limit on federal deposit
insurance coverage from $100,000 to $250,000 per depositor retroactive to January 1, 2009. In addition, in November 2010, pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, the FDIC issued a final rule to provide temporary unlimited deposit insurance coverage for
non-interest bearing accounts from December 31, 2010 through December 31, 2012.
5
Under the FDIC’s risk-based assessment regulations there are four risk categories, and each insured
institution is assigned to a risk category based on capital levels and supervisory ratings. Well-capitalized institutions with CAMELS composite ratings of 1 or 2 are placed in Risk Category I while other institutions are placed in Risk Categories
II, III or IV depending on their capital levels and CAMELS composite ratings. The assessment rates may be changed by the FDIC as necessary to maintain the deposit insurance fund at the reserve ratio designated by the FDIC. A bank’s initial
assessment rate is based upon the risk category to which it is assigned. Adjustments may be made to a bank’s initial assessment rate based upon certain factors including levels of long-term unsecured debt, levels of secured liabilities above a
threshold amount, and, for certain institutions, brokered deposit levels. Effective through March 31, 2011, initial assessment rates ranged from 12 to 45 basis points of assessable deposits. As required by the Dodd-Frank Act, in February 2011,
the FDIC adopted a final rule that redefined its deposit insurance premium assessment base to be an insured depository institution’s average consolidated total assets minus average tangible equity capital, rather than deposits. In addition, the
FDIC has revised its deposit insurance rate schedules as a consequence of the changes to the assessment base. The proposed rate schedule and other revisions became effective on April 1, 2011. Initial base assessment rates now range between 5
and 35 basis points of the new assessment base.
Due to a decrease in the reserve ratio of the deposit insurance fund, in
October 2008, the FDIC established a restoration plan to restore the reserve ratio to at least 1.15%. However, the Dodd-Frank Act raised the minimum reserve ratio to 1.35% and removed the 1.5% maximum fund ratio, instead leaving it to the discretion
of the FDIC. The Dodd-Frank Act also requires that the reserve ratio reach 1.35% by September 30, 2020. Effective January 1, 2011, the FDIC set the long term reserve ratio at 2%.
In May 2009, the FDIC imposed a special assessment of five basis points on each FDIC-insured depository institution’s assets, minus
its Tier 1 capital as of June 30, 2009. The special assessment was collected on September 30, 2009, and the Banks’ paid an additional assessment of $267,000.
On November 12, 2009, the FDIC adopted a final rule that required insured institutions to prepay on December 31, 2009, estimated quarterly risk-based assessments for the fourth quarter of 2009
and for all of 2010, 2011, and 2012. For purposes of calculating the prepayment amount, the institution’s third quarter 2009 assessment base was increased quarterly at a five percent annual growth rate through the end of 2012. On
September 29, 2009, the FDIC also increased annual assessment rates uniformly by three basis points beginning in 2011. On December 31, 2009, the Banks prepaid estimated assessments of $ 303,000.
In November 2008, the FDIC adopted final regulations implementing the Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (“TLGP”) pursuant
to which depository institutions could elect to participate. Pursuant to the TLGP, for a surcharge the FDIC provides full FDIC deposit insurance coverage for non-interest bearing deposit transaction accounts regardless of dollar amount for an
additional fee assessment by the FDIC (the “Transaction Account Guarantee”). These accounts are mainly payment-processing accounts, such as business payroll accounts. The Bank did not opt out of the Transaction Account Guarantee portion of
the TLGP. The Transaction Account Guarantee was to expire on December 31, 2009, but was extended until December 31, 2010 for those participating institutions that did not opt out of the extended period. The Bank elected not to continue its
participation in the Transaction Account Guarantee program during the extended period. The Dodd-Frank Act provides unlimited federal deposit insurance until January 1, 2013 for non-interest bearing demand transaction accounts at all insured
depository institutions. There is no additional surcharge related to this coverage.
FICO
Assessments
.
The Bank is subject to assessments to cover the payments on outstanding obligations of the Financing Corporation (“FICO”). FICO was created to finance the recapitalization of the Federal Savings and Loan
Insurance Corporation, during the thrift crisis in the 1980s. From now until the maturity of the outstanding FICO obligations in 2019, insured institutions will share the cost of the interest on the FICO bonds on a
pro rata
basis.
6
Commissioner Assessments
. Michigan banks are required to pay supervisory fees
to the Commissioner to fund the operations of the Commissioner. The amount of supervisory fees paid by a bank is based upon the bank’s total assets, as reported to the Commissioner.
Capital Requirements
. The FDIC has established the following minimum capital standards for state-chartered, FDIC insured
non-member banks, such as the Bank: a leverage requirement consisting of a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to total average assets of 3% for the most highly-rated banks with minimum requirements of 4% to 5% for all others, and a risk-based capital
requirement consisting of a minimum ratio of total capital to total risk-weighted assets of 8%, at least one-half of which must be Tier 1 capital. Tier 1 capital consists principally of shareholders’ equity. These capital requirements are
minimum requirements. Higher capital levels will be required if warranted by the particular circumstances or risk profiles of individual institutions.
The Dodd-Frank Act requires the FDIC to establish minimum leverage and risk-based capital requirements to apply to insured depository institutions. The Dodd-Frank Act additionally requires capital
requirements to be countercyclical so that the required amount of capital increases in times of economic expansion and decreases in times of economic contraction, consistent with safety and soundness
Prompt Corrective Regulatory Action
. Federal law provides the federal banking regulators with broad power to take prompt
corrective action to resolve the problems of undercapitalized institutions. The extent of the regulators’ powers depends on whether the institution in question is “well capitalized,” “adequately capitalized,”
“undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized,” or “critically undercapitalized.” Federal regulations define these capital categories as follows:

As of December 31, 2011, the Bank’s ratios exceeded minimum requirements for the well
capitalized category. However due to regulatory agreements, the Bank cannot be considered “well” capitalized and is classified as “adequately” capitalized.
In general, a depository institution may be reclassified to a lower category than is indicated by its capital levels if the appropriate federal depository institution regulatory agency determines the
institution to be otherwise in an unsafe or unsound condition or to be engaged in an unsafe or unsound practice. This could include a failure by the institution, following receipt of a less-than-satisfactory rating on its most recent examination
report, to correct the deficiency.
In addition, FDIC insured institutions may be liable for any loss incurred by, or
reasonably expected to be incurred by the FDIC in connection with the default of commonly controlled FDIC insured depository institutions or any assistance provided by the FDIC to commonly controlled FDIC insured depository institutions in danger of
default.
Regulatory Agreements
In December 2009, the Bank was presented with a Consent Order from the FDIC and the Commissioner (the “Consent Order”). This Consent Order was effective January 8, 2010. The Consent Order
set forth commitments to be made by the Bank to, among other items, address and strengthen the
7
Bank’s practices relating to oversight of the Bank by the management and board of directors of the Bank; maintain sufficient capital at the Bank; improve asset quality through the review of
the Bank’s position on problem loans; improve the Bank’s liquidity position; review the adequacy of the Bank’s allowance for loan and lease losses; and adopt and implement a profit plan and budget. The Consent Order requires the Bank
to maintain a Tier 1 capital to average asset ratio of a minimum of 8.0% and a total capital to risk-weighed asset ratio of 12.0%. At December 31, 2011, the Bank had a Tier 1 capital to average assets ratio of 8.1% and a total capital to
risk-weighed asset ratio of 12.3%. This is compared to December 31, 2010, when the Bank had a Tier 1 capital to average asset ratio of 6.5% and a total capital to risk-weighted asset ratio of 10.0%. The Bank’s board of directors and
management reviewed the Consent Order and after discussions, the directors signed the Consent Order agreeing to comply with all of its requirements.
Dividends
. Under Michigan law, the Bank is restricted as to the maximum amount of dividends it may pay on its common stock. The Bank may not pay dividends except out of net income after
deducting its losses and bad debts. A Michigan state bank may not declare or pay a dividend unless the bank will have surplus amounting to at least 20% of its capital after the payment of the dividend.
Federal law generally prohibits a depository institution from making any capital distribution (including payment of a dividend) or
paying any management fee to its holding company if the depository institution would thereafter be undercapitalized. The FDIC may prevent an insured bank from paying dividends if the bank is in default of payment of any assessment due to the FDIC.
In addition, the FDIC may prohibit the payment of dividends by an insured bank, if such payment is determined, by reason of the financial condition of the bank, to be an unsafe and unsound banking practice.
Pursuant to the Consent Order, the Bank may not declare or pay any cash dividend without the prior written consent of the FDIC and the
Commissioner.
Insider Transactions
. The Bank is subject to certain restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve
Act on any extensions of credit to the Corporation or its subsidiary, on investments in the stock or other securities of the Corporation or its subsidiary and the acceptance of the stock or other securities of the Corporation or its subsidiary as
collateral for loans. Certain limitations and reporting requirements are also placed on extensions of credit by the Bank to its directors and officers, to directors and officers of the Corporation and its subsidiary, to principal shareholders of the
Corporation, and to “related interests” of such directors, officers and principal shareholders. In addition, federal law and regulations may affect the terms upon which any person becoming a director or officer of the Corporation or one of
its subsidiaries or a principal shareholder of the Corporation may obtain credit from the bank with which the Bank maintains a correspondent relationship.
Safety and Soundness Standards
. The FDIC has adopted guidelines to promote the safety and soundness of federally insured depository institutions. These guidelines establish standards for
internal controls, information systems, internal audit systems, loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth, compensation, fees and benefits, asset quality and earnings.
Investments and Other Activities
. Under federal law and FDIC regulations, FDIC-insured state banks are prohibited, subject
to certain exceptions, from making or retaining equity investments of a type, or in an amount, that are not permissible for a national bank. Federal law, as implemented by FDIC regulations, also prohibits FDIC insured state banks and their
subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions, from engaging as principal in any activity that is not permitted for a national bank or its subsidiary, respectively, unless the bank meets, and continues to meet, its minimum regulatory capital
requirements and the FDIC determines the activity would not pose a significant risk to the deposit insurance fund. Impermissible investments and activities must be divested or discontinued within certain time frames set forth by the FDIC in
accordance with federal law. These restrictions are not currently expected to have a material impact on the operations of the Bank.
Federal law also authorizes insured state banks to engage in financial activities, through subsidiaries, similar to the activities permitted for financial holding companies. If a state bank wants to
8
establish a subsidiary engaged in financial activities, it must meet certain criteria, including that it and all of its affiliated insured depository institutions are well-capitalized and have a
Community Reinvestment Act rating of at least “satisfactory” and that it is well-managed. There are capital deduction and financial statement requirements and financial and operational safeguards that apply to subsidiaries engaged in
financial activities. Such a subsidiary is considered to be an affiliate of the bank and there are limitations on certain transactions between a bank and a subsidiary engaged in financial activities of the same type that apply to transactions with a
bank’s holding company and its subsidiaries.
Consumer Protection Laws
. The Bank’s business includes
making a variety of types of loans to individuals. In making these loans, the Bank is subject to State usury and regulatory laws and to various federal statutes, including the privacy of consumer financial information provisions of the
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and regulations promulgated there under, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Truth in Lending Act, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, and the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, and the
regulations promulgated there under, which prohibit discrimination, specify disclosures to be made to borrowers regarding credit and settlement costs, and regulate the mortgage loan servicing activities of the Bank, including the maintenance and
operation of escrow accounts and the transfer of mortgage loan servicing. In receiving deposits, the Bank is subject to extensive regulation under State and federal law and regulations, including the Truth in Savings Act, the Expedited Funds
Availability Act, the Bank Secrecy Act, the Electronic Funds Transfer Act, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. Violation of these laws could result in the imposition of significant damages and fines upon the Bank and its directors and officers.
Branching Authority
.
Michigan banks, such as the Bank, have the authority under Michigan law to
establish branches in any state, including Michigan, the District of Columbia, a territory or protectorate of the United States or a foreign country, subject to receipt of all required regulatory approvals. The Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and
Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 allows the FDIC and other federal bank regulators to approve applications for mergers of banks across state lines without regard to whether such activity is contrary to state law. After establishing branches in a
state through an interstate merger, a bank can establish and acquire additional branches at any location in the state where any bank involved in the merger could have established or acquired branches under applicable federal or state law. Financial
institutions utilized mergers for interstate branching purposes since some states prohibited de novo branching or had reciprocity requirements. However, the Dodd-Frank Act removed such restrictions on interstate branching. As a result of the
Dodd-Frank Act, interstate branching authority has been expanded and a state or national bank may open a de novo branch in another state if the law of the state where the branch is to be located would permit a state bank chartered by that state to
open the branch.
Reserve Requirement
.
Under a regulation promulgated by the Federal Reserve, depository institutions, including
the Banks, are required to maintain cash reserves against a stated percentage of their transaction accounts. Effective October 9, 2008, the Federal Reserve Banks are now authorized to pay interest on such reserves. The current reserve
requirements are as follows:
|
|
•
|
|
for transaction accounts totaling $11.5 million or less, a reserve of 0%; and
|
|
|
•
|
|
for transaction accounts in excess of $11.5 million up to and including $71.0 million, a reserve of 3%; and
|
|
|
•
|
|
for transaction accounts totaling in excess of $71.0 million, a reserve requirement of $1.785 million plus 10% of that portion of the total transaction
accounts greater than $71.0 million.
|
The dollar amounts and percentages reported here are all subject to adjustment by the
Federal Reserve.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
|
On February 4, 2011, Fentura Financial, Inc. (“Fentura”) dismissed its independent registered public accounting firm, Crowe
Horwath LLP (“Crowe Horwath”) to be effective upon Fentura filing its 2010 Form 10-K. Crowe Horwath’s report on Fentura’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 contained
no adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that Crowe Horwath’s opinion on the 2009 consolidated financial statements included an explanatory paragraph
describing substantial doubt about Fentura’s ability to continue as a going concern. The decision to change accountants was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
During each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2010, and the subsequent interim period to the date hereof, there
were (i) no disagreements between Fentura and Crowe Horwath on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Crowe
Horwath, would have caused Crowe Horwath to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports.
On February 4, 2011, Fentura notified Rehmann Robson, P.C. (“Rehmann”) of the registrant’s intent to formally engage Rehmann as its new independent registered public accounting firm to
be effective upon Fentura filing its 2010 Form 10-K. During the last two fiscal years and the subsequent interim period to the date hereof, Fentura did not consult with Rehmann regarding (1) the application of accounting principles to any
transaction, either completed or proposed; (2) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on Fentura’s consolidated financial statements; or (3) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement (as defined in
Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

ITEM 9A

The Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act
Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-K Annual Report, have concluded that the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures were adequate and effective to ensure that material
information relating to the Corporation would be made known to them by others within the Corporation, particularly during the period in which this Form 10-K Annual Report was being prepared.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
Management’s Annual
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
The management of Fentura Financial Inc. is responsible for establishing and
maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Fentura Financial Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting is
12
a process designed under the supervision of the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial
reporting and the preparation of the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
Fentura Financial Inc.’s management assessed the effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2011 based on criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework.” Based on that assessment, management determined that, as of
December 31, 2011, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting is effective, based on those criteria.
There was no
change in the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Corporation’s quarter ended December 31, 2011, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to affect, the Corporation’s internal
control over financial reporting.
