EXPLANATORY NOTE
Zions Bancorporation (the Company, we, our) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A to amend its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 that was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 10, 2009. As disclosed in our Form 8-K filing dated January 25, 2010, we are filing this Amendment No. 1 to reflect the change in our accounting treatment for the subordinated debt modification described in Note 7 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. We have reevaluated our accounting for this transaction and, based on our review, have revised as appropriate the consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. We have also revised the related Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. These revisions are included in this Amendment No. 1.
The revised calculations relate to increases to the gain on subordinated debt modification recognized in the statements of income, and to the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature of the modified subordinated debt recorded directly in common stock within shareholders equity. The Company has no par common stock and all additional paid-in capital transactions are recorded in common stock. The revised calculations reduced the net loss applicable to common shareholders by $16.9 million from $40.7 million to $23.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. In addition, at June 30, 2009, the revised calculations increased the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature by $155.8 million and total shareholders equity by $172.7 million from the amounts previously reported. Further discussion of these revisions is included in this Amendment No. 1 in Note 1, Basis of Presentation, and Note 7, Debt and Shareholders Equity.
This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A amends:
Part I. Financial Information
Item 1. Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
This Amendment No. 1 includes the original filing in its entirety and we are only amending those portions affected by the revisions previously described. The only exhibits included with this Amendment No. 1 are Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, and 32, related to the certifications by the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, as required by Rule 12b-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

June 30, 2009
1. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Zions Bancorporation (the Parent) and its majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively the Company, Zions, we, our, us) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Subsequent events have been evaluated through February 11, 2010, the date of filing these financial statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Operating results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected in future periods. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2008 is from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
The Company provides a full range of banking and related services through banking subsidiaries in ten Western and Southwestern states as follows: Zions First National Bank (Zions Bank), in Utah and Idaho; California Bank & Trust (CB&T); Amegy Corporation (Amegy) and its subsidiary, Amegy Bank, in Texas; National Bank of Arizona (NBA); Nevada State Bank (NSB); Vectra Bank Colorado (Vectra), in Colorado and New Mexico; The Commerce Bank of Washington (TCBW); and The Commerce Bank of Oregon (TCBO). The Parent also owns and operates certain nonbank subsidiaries that engage in the development and sale of financial technologies and related services, and in wealth management services.

Revision of Financial Statements
The accompanying financial statements and related notes have been revised as a result of the reevaluation of our accounting for the subordinated debt modification described in Note 7. Our reevaluation resulted in revised calculations of the gain on subordinated debt modification in the statements of income, and the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature of the modified subordinated debt recorded directly in common stock within shareholders equity. The Company has no par common stock and all additional paid-in capital transactions are recorded in common stock. These revised calculations increased the gain on subordinated debt modification by $27.4 million pretax from $466.3 million to $493.7 million and reduced the net loss applicable to common shareholders by $16.9 million from $40.7 million to $23.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, and from $893.0 million to $876.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. In addition, at June 30, 2009, the revised calculations increased common stock by $155.8 million from $2,779.9 million to $2,935.7 million, and total shareholders equity by $172.7 million from $5,582.0 million to $5,754.7 million. The revisions applied to the affected individual line items in the financial statements are summarized as follows:

2. | CERTAIN RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS |
On June 12, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140, and SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R). These Statements modify the accounting for transfers of financial assets and the determination of what entities must be consolidated, and will have a significant effect on securitizations and special-purpose entities. We will adopt these Statements effective January 1, 2010. Management is evaluating the impact these Statements may have on the Companys financial statements.
On May 28, 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events, which became effective for the second quarter of 2009. SFAS 165 modifies the definition of subsequent events and requires entities to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated and the basis for that date. Adoption of this Standard was not significant to the Companys financial statements.
Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted SFAS No. 160, Accounting and Reporting of Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51, issued by the FASB. Under the new view of an economic entity in consolidated financial statements, SFAS 160 changes the presentation of noncontrolling (or minority) interests in that all operating amounts attributable to a noncontrolling interest are included in the statement of income and accumulated balances are included as a separate component of equity. Also required is the allocation of losses to a noncontrolling interest even when such losses result in a negative carrying balance. The effect of adopting SFAS 160 was not significant to the Companys financial statements. As of January 1, 2009, minority interest of $27.3 million was reclassified to shareholders equity and reported as noncontrolling interests. As required, retrospective application was made to all prior periods for comparative presentation.
Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities. This FSP clarifies that unvested share-based payment awards with rights to receive nonforfeitable dividends are participating securities and should be included in the computation of earnings per share. Adoption of this FSP required retrospective adjustment of earnings per share information, which was not significant to any prior period included in the accompanying financial statements.
Additional accounting pronouncements recently adopted are discussed where applicable in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
3. | MERGER AND ACQUISITION ACTIVITY |
Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations. Among the most significant changes, SFAS 141(R) eliminates the step acquisition model under SFAS 141. Upon initially obtaining control, the acquirer will recognize 100% of all acquired assets (including goodwill) and all assumed liabilities regardless of the percentage owned. Certain transaction and restructuring costs must be expensed as incurred. Changes to the acquirers existing income tax valuation allowances and uncertainty accruals from a business combination must be recognized as an adjustment to current income tax expense and not to goodwill over the subsequent annual period.
On April 17, 2009, NSB acquired the banking operations of the failed Great Basin Bank of Nevada headquartered in Elko, Nevada, from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) as receiver. The acquisition consisted of approximately $212 million of assets, including the entire loan portfolio, $209 million of deposits, and five branches in Northern Nevada. NSB received approximately $17.8 million in cash from the FDIC and entered into a loss sharing agreement in which the FDIC generally will assume 80% of the first $40 million of credit losses and 95% of the credit losses in excess of $40 million.

ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
On February 6, 2009, CB&T acquired the banking operations of the failed Alliance Bank headquartered in Culver City, California from the FDIC as receiver. The acquisition consisted of approximately $1.1 billion of assets, including the entire loan portfolio, $1.0 billion of deposits, and five branches. CB&T received approximately $10 million in cash from the FDIC and entered into a loss sharing agreement in which the FDIC generally will assume 80% of the first $275 million of credit losses and 95% of the credit losses in excess of $275 million.
As a result of the loss sharing agreements previously discussed, the acquired loans are presented in the Companys balance sheet as FDIC-supported assets. In accordance with SFAS 141(R), these loans were recorded at fair value without a corresponding allowance for loan losses. During the second quarter of 2009, after applying the provisions of SFAS 141(R), these subsidiaries recognized acquisition related gains totaling approximately $23.0 million, resulting from the fair value of net assets acquired exceeding cost.
Statement of Position 03-3 (SOP 03-3), Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer, provides guidance for the initial recognition and ongoing accounting of acquired loans which have evidence of credit deterioration and for which it is probable that not all contractual payments will be collected. Similar to SFAS 141(R), SOP 03-3 prohibits carrying over or creating an allowance for loan losses upon initial recognition.
The carrying value of FDIC-supported assets at June 30, 2009 consisted of loans accounted for in accordance with SOP 03-3, loans not subject to SOP 03-3, and other assets as follows (in thousands):

As of the respective dates of acquisition for Great Basin and Alliance, the preliminary estimates of the contractually required payments receivable for SOP 03-3 loans were $191.7 million, the cash flows expected to be collected were $170.0 million including interest, and the estimated fair value of the acquired loans was $171.6 million. These amounts were determined based upon the estimated remaining life of the underlying loans, which included the effects of estimated prepayments. Because of the estimation process required, certain refinements may be made to the above estimates in future 2009 reporting periods.

On July, 17, 2009, CB&T entered into a purchase and assumption agreement with the FDIC as receiver of the failed Vineyard Bank in Southern California. CB&T acquired most of the assets and liabilities of Vineyard in a whole bank transaction, with a loss sharing arrangement with the FDIC. Vineyard had approximately $1.6 billion of assets, including $1.4 billion of loans, $1.5 billion of deposits and 16 branches mostly located in the Inland Empire area of California. Under the terms of the purchase and assumption agreement, CB&T assumed Vineyards deposit obligations other than brokered deposits, and purchased most of Vineyards assets, including all loans, at a discount of $242 million to stated value. The FDIC will bear 80% of the first $465 million of losses on loans and other real estate owned and 95% of any losses above that amount, as provided for and under the terms and conditions of the purchase and assumption agreement.

As part of our ongoing review of the investment securities portfolio, we reassessed the classification of certain asset-backed and trust preferred collateralized debt obligation (CDO) securities. During the three months ended June 30, 2009, we reclassified approximately $557 million at fair value of held-to-maturity (HTM) securities to available-for-sale (AFS). Additional unrealized losses included in OCI as a result of this transfer were $124.4 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2009, we reclassified a total of $596 million at fair value of HTM securities to AFS. The reclassifications were made subsequent to ratings downgrades, as permitted under SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. No gain or loss was recognized in the statement of income at the time of reclassification.

We conduct a formal review of investment securities on a quarterly basis for the presence of other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI). Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments, issued by the FASB on April 9, 2009. We assess whether OTTI is present when the fair value of a debt security is less than its amortized cost basis at the balance sheet date. Under these circumstances as required by the new FSP, OTTI is considered to have occurred (1) if we intend to sell the security; (2) if it is more likely than not we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis; or (3) the present value of expected cash flows is not sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis. The more likely than not criteria is a lower threshold than the probable criteria used under previous guidance.
The FSP requires that credit-related OTTI is recognized in earnings while noncredit-related OTTI on securities not expected to be sold is recognized in other comprehensive income (OCI). Noncredit-related OTTI is based on other factors, including illiquidity. Presentation of OTTI is made in the statement of income on a gross basis with an offset for the amount of OTTI recognized in OCI. For securities classified as HTM, the amount of OTTI recognized in OCI is accreted to the credit-adjusted expected cash flow amounts of the securities over future periods. Noncredit-related OTTI recognized in earnings previous to January 1, 2009 is reclassified from retained earnings to accumulated OCI as a cumulative effect adjustment. Additional disclosures are also required by this FSP.

ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
As stated in our 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K, our OTTI evaluation process also follows the guidance of SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 99-20, Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased and Retained Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, and FSP No. EITF 99-20-1, Amendments to the Impairment and Interest Income Measurement Guidance of EITF Issue No. 99-20. This guidance requires the Company to take into consideration current market conditions, fair value in relationship to cost, extent and nature of change in fair value, issuer rating changes and trends, volatility of earnings, current analysts evaluations, all available information relevant to the collectibility of debt securities, our ability and intent to hold investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, and other factors when evaluating for the existence of OTTI in our securities portfolio. FSP EITF 99-20-1 was issued on January 12, 2009 and is effective for reporting periods ending after December 15, 2008. This FSP amends EITF 99-20 by eliminating the requirement that a holders best estimate of cash flows be based upon those that a market participant would use. Instead, the FSP requires that OTTI is recognized as a realized loss through earnings when there has been an adverse change in the holders expected cash flows such that it is probable that the full amount will not be received. This requirement is consistent with the impairment model in SFAS 115.
In addition, our disclosure and related discussion of unrealized losses is presented pursuant to FSP FAS 115-1 and FAS 124-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments, and EITF Issue No. 03-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments. FSP FAS 115-1 and 124-1 replaces certain impairment evaluation guidance of EITF 03-1; however, the disclosure requirements of EITF 03-1 remain in effect. This FSP addresses the determination of when an investment is considered impaired, whether the impairment is considered to be other-than-temporary, and the measurement of an impairment loss. The FSP also supersedes EITF Topic No. D-44, Recognition of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment upon the Planned Sale of a Security Whose Cost Exceeds Fair Value, and clarifies that an impairment loss should be recognized no later than when the impairment is deemed other-than-temporary, even if a decision to sell an impaired security has not been made.
For all security types discussed below where we believe that no OTTI exists at June 30, 2009, we applied the criteria of FSP FAS 115-2 and 124-2. That is, we do not intend to sell the securities and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell the securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis.
Municipal securities
The HTM securities are purchased directly from the municipalities and are generally not rated by a credit rating agency. The AFS securities are rated as investment grade by various credit rating agencies. Both the HTM and AFS securities are at fixed and variable rates with maturities from one to 25 years. Fair values of these securities are highly driven by interest rates. We perform credit quality reviews on these issues at each reporting period. Because the decline in fair value is not attributable to credit quality, we believe that no OTTI exists for these securities at June 30, 2009.

Asset-backed securities
Trust preferred securities banks and insurance: These CDO securities are variable rate pools of trust preferred securities related to banks and insurance companies. They are rated by one or more Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations (NRSROs) which are rating agencies registered with the SEC. They were purchased generally at par. Unrealized losses were caused mainly by the following factors: (1) collateral deterioration due to bank failures and credit concerns across the banking sector; (2) widening of credit spreads for asset-backed securities; and (3) general illiquidity in the market for CDOs. Our ongoing review of these securities in accordance with the previous discussion and the policy in our 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K determined that OTTI should be recorded on certain of these securities. See subsequent summary.
Trust preferred securities real estate investment trusts (REIT): These CDO securities are variable rate pools of trust preferred securities related to real estate investment trusts, and are rated by one or more NRSROs. They were purchased generally at par. Unrealized losses were caused mainly by severe deterioration in mortgage REITs and homebuilder credit in addition to the same factors previously discussed for banks and insurance CDOs. Our ongoing review of these securities in accordance with the previous discussion and the policy in our 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K determined that OTTI should be recorded on certain of these securities. See subsequent summary.
Auction rate securities: These debt instruments primarily relate to auction market preferred stock and certain corporate and municipal bonds for which the interest rate was determined through an auction process. Due to the failure of these auctions and attendant illiquidity of the securities, the Company voluntarily purchased at par these securities and recorded them at fair value. They had previously been sold to customers by certain Company subsidiaries. Adjustments to fair value were included in valuation losses on securities purchased. See subsequent discussion.
Other asset-backed securities: The majority of these CDO securities were purchased from Lockhart Funding LLC (Lockhart) at their carrying values and were adjusted to fair value. Certain of these CDOs consist of structured asset-backed CDOs (ABS CDOs) (also known as diversified structured finance CDOs). Our ongoing review of these securities in accordance with the previous discussion and the policy in our 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K determined that OTTI should be recorded on certain of these securities. See subsequent summary.
U.S. Government agencies and corporations
Agency securities: These securities consist of discount notes and medium term notes issued by the Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation (FAMC), Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB), Federal Farm Credit Bank, Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC), and Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA). These securities are fixed rate and were purchased at premiums or discounts. They have maturity dates from one to 30 years and have contractual cash flows guaranteed by agencies of the U.S. Government. In the latter half of 2008, the U.S. Government provided substantial liquidity to FNMA and FHLMC to bolster their creditworthiness. Because the decline in fair value is not attributable to credit quality, we believe that no OTTI exists for these securities at June 30, 2009.
Agency guaranteed mortgage-backed securities: These securities are comprised largely of fixed and variable rate residential mortgage-backed securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA), FNMA, FAMC, or FHLMC. They have maturity dates from one to 30 years and have contractual cash flows guaranteed by agencies of the U.S. Government. In the latter half of 2008, the U.S. Government provided substantial liquidity to both FNMA and FHLMC to bolster their creditworthiness. Because the decline in fair value is not attributable to credit quality, we believe that no OTTI exists for these securities at June 30, 2009.

Small Business Administration (SBA) loan-backed securities: These securities were generally purchased at premiums with maturities from five to 25 years and have principal cash flows guaranteed by the SBA.

The effect of the consolidation was not significant to the Companys financial statements. Lockhart had previously functioned as an off-balance sheet qualifying special-purpose entity securities conduit. At June 30, 2009, Lockhart had assets of approximately $10.2 million at book value. |
| $5.5 million and $24.2 million, respectively, when we voluntarily purchased during the first quarter of 2009 all of the $255.3 million of auction rate securities previously sold to customers by certain Company subsidiaries.

As of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, securities with an amortized cost of $1.7 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively, were pledged to secure public and trust deposits, advances, and for other purposes as required by law. Securities are also pledged as collateral for security repurchase agreements.
5. | DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES |
Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133. SFAS 161, among other things, requires greater transparency in disclosing information about derivatives including the objectives for their use, the volume of derivative activity, tabular disclosure of financial statement amounts, and any credit-risk-related features. The new disclosures are required for interim as well as annual financial statements and were not significantly different from the Companys previous annual disclosures.
19
ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
As required by SFAS 133, as amended, we record all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. See Note 8 for a discussion of the application of SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, in determining the fair value of derivatives. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges.
For derivatives designated as fair value hedges (the Company had none at June 30, 2009), changes in the fair value of the derivative are recognized in earnings together with changes in the fair value of the related hedged item. The net amount, if any, representing hedge ineffectiveness, is reflected in earnings. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income and recognized in earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges is recognized directly in earnings. We assess the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in fair value or cash flows on the derivative hedging instrument with the changes in fair value or cash flows on the designated hedged item or transaction. For derivatives not designated as hedges, changes in fair value are recognized in earnings.
Our objective in using derivatives is to add stability to interest income or expense, to modify the duration of specific assets or liabilities as we consider advisable, and to manage exposure to interest rate movements or other identified risks. To accomplish this objective, we use interest rate swaps and floors as part of our cash flow hedging strategy. These derivatives are used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with designated commercial loans. In previous periods, we used fair value hedges to manage interest rate exposure to certain long-term debt. During the first quarter of 2009, all fair value derivatives were terminated. After significant declines in short-term interest rates, we believed it was highly unlikely that short-term rates could go significantly lower. By terminating the swaps, we locked in a substantial mark-to-market gain and increased our flexibility to exchange or modify the now unhedged subordinated debt. The subordinated debt was modified and/or exchanged during the second quarter of 2009, as discussed in Note 7. As of June 30, 2009, no derivatives were designated for hedges of investments in foreign operations.
Exposure to credit risk arises from the possibility of nonperformance by counterparties. These counterparties primarily consist of financial institutions that are well established and well capitalized. We control this credit risk through credit approvals, limits, pledges of collateral, and monitoring procedures. No losses on derivative instruments have occurred as a result of counterparty nonperformance. Nevertheless, the related credit risk is considered and measured when and where appropriate. We have no significant exposure to credit default swaps.
Interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of fixed-rate amounts in exchange for variable-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying principal amount. Derivatives not designated as hedges, including basis swap agreements, are not speculative and are used to manage our exposure to interest rate movements and other identified risks, but do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements of SFAS 133.

At June 30, 2009 in accordance with SFAS 157, the fair values of derivative assets and liabilities were reduced by net credit valuation adjustments of $1.9 million and $3.4 million, respectively. These adjustments are required to reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterpartys nonperformance risk.
FSP FIN 39-1 permits entities to offset fair value amounts recognized for the right to reclaim cash collateral (a receivable) or the obligation to return cash collateral (a payable) against recognized fair value amounts of derivatives executed with the same counterparty under a master netting arrangement. At June 30, 2009, cash collateral was used to reduce recorded amounts of derivative assets by $25.2 million and derivative liabilities by $6.6 million.

Interest rate swaps and energy commodity swaps for customers are offered to assist customers in managing their exposure to fluctuating interest rates and energy prices. Upon issuance, all of these customer swaps are immediately hedged by offsetting derivative contracts, such that the Company minimizes its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. Fee income from customer swaps is included in other service charges, commissions and fees. As with other derivative instruments, we have credit risk for any nonperformance by counterparties.
The remaining balances of any derivative instruments terminated prior to maturity, including amounts in AOCI for swap hedges, are accreted or amortized generally on a straight-line basis to interest income or expense over the period to their previously stated maturity dates. During the second quarter of 2009, the Company recognized gains when certain debt was modified. See discussion in Note 7.
Amounts in AOCI are reclassified to interest income as interest is earned on variable rate loans and as amounts for terminated hedges are accreted or amortized to earnings. For the 12 months following June 30, 2009, we estimate that an additional $112 million of gains and accretion/amortization will be reclassified.

The impairment losses totaling $634.0 million reflect impairment due to continued market deterioration during the first quarter of 2009. The losses primarily reflect impairment at Amegy. The amount of the impairment losses was determined based on the calculation process specified in SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which compares carrying value to the estimated fair values of assets and liabilities. These fair values were estimated with the assistance of independent valuation consultants utilizing the provisions of SFAS 157. The estimation process took into account market value approaches including management estimates of projected discounted cash flows. For Amegy, the process included a review of transaction information and recent declines in market values of peer banks in and near Texas and a weaker economic outlook in that state.

1. | Gain on subordinated debt modification We exchanged approximately $0.2 billion of subordinated notes for new notes with the same terms. The remaining $1.2 billion of subordinated notes were modified to permit conversion on a par-for-par basis into either the Companys Series A or Series C preferred stock. The carrying value of the modified subordinated debt included the fair value adjustments of the swaps that were terminated. Net of issuance costs and debt discount on the previous debt, the pretax gain recognized in the statement of income from this subordinated debt modification was $493.7 million. |
2. | Beneficial conversion feature We recorded $201.2 million after-tax directly in common stock for the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature of the modified subordinated debt. The Company has no par common stock and all additional paid-in capital transactions are recorded in common stock. |
3. | Tender offer of Series A preferred stock We purchased 4,020,435 depositary shares (each share representing a 1/40th ownership interest in a share of preferred stock) at a price of $11.50 per depositary share, or an aggregate amount of $46.4 million including accrued dividends. At a $25 per depositary share liquidation preference, the purchase reduced the $240 million carrying value of the Series A preferred stock by approximately $100.5 million. Net of related costs, the preferred stock redemption resulted in a $52.4 million increase to retained earnings. The purchase price of $11.50 per depositary share was determined based on a modified Dutch auction pricing mechanism. |
4. | Common equity ongoing issuances We issued approximately $123.7 million of new common stock net of issuance costs, which consisted of 9,177,658 shares at an average price of $13.79 per share. The issuance was made pursuant to an equity distribution agreement under which we may sell up to $250 million of the Companys common stock. We intend to complete the full issuance during the remainder of 2009. |
The gain on the subordinated debt modification was calculated as the difference between the fair value of the modified convertible debt and the carrying value of the extinguished debt on the transaction date. The $493.7 million gain was determined using fair values on the transaction date of June 29, 2009.
The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature was calculated as the difference between the fair value of the preferred stock into which the debt is convertible (multiplied by the number of related shares) and the fair value of the modified convertible debt on the commitment date. The commitment date is defined as the date when both parties are bound to the terms of the transaction, which was the expiration of the exchange offer and corresponded with the transaction date. The calculation resulted in an intrinsic value of $201.2 million after-tax. At the time of each conversion of the modified convertible debt to preferred stock, a proportional amount of the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature will be transferred from common stock to preferred stock.
In connection with the debt modification, we recorded a debt discount of approximately $665.5 million, which will be amortized to income using the interest method over the remaining terms of the subordinated debt. The rate of amortization will be accelerated if and as holders of the subordinated debt elect to convert it into preferred stock through the immediate expensing of any unamortized discount associated with the converted debt.
During the first half of 2009, we redeemed approximately $203.9 million of senior medium-term notes. During the second quarter of 2009, we issued $36.2 million of new senior medium term notes due May 17, 2010 at a 5.5% coupon rate.

8. | FAIR VALUE |
SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, and SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, address the application of fair value accounting and reporting. Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities. This adoption had been delayed by FSP FAS 157-2 for one year and the primary impact was to include other real estate owned in our accounting and reporting of fair value.
On April 9, 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly, and FSP FAS 107 and APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments. We adopted both of these FSPs effective January 1, 2009.
FSP FAS 157-4 provides additional guidance on estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability have significantly decreased in relation to normal market activity. FSP FAS 157-4 also requires additional disclosures on fair value measurements and provides additional guidance on circumstances that may indicate that a transaction is not orderly. This FSP supersedes FAS 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active.
FSP FAS 107 and APB 28-1 extended the annual fair value disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, to interim financial statements. The disclosure is provided subsequently herein.
Fair Value Measurements
SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value, and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. To measure fair value, SFAS 157 has established a hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. This hierarchy uses three levels of inputs to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities as follows:
Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; includes certain U.S. Treasury and other U.S. Government and agency securities actively traded in over-the-counter markets; certain securities sold, not yet purchased; and certain derivatives.
Level 2 Observable inputs other than Level 1 including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in less active markets, or other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data; also includes derivative contracts whose value is determined using a pricing model with observable market inputs or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. This category generally includes certain U.S. Government and agency securities; certain CDO securities; corporate debt securities; certain private equity investments; certain securities sold, not yet purchased; and certain derivatives.
Level 3 Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity for financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation; also includes observable inputs for nonbinding single dealer quotes not corroborated by observable market data. This category generally includes certain CDO securities and certain private equity investments.
25
ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
We use fair value to measure certain assets and liabilities on a recurring basis when fair value is the primary measure for accounting. This is done primarily for AFS and trading investment securities; private equity investments; securities sold, not yet purchased; and derivatives. Fair value is used on a nonrecurring basis to measure certain assets when applying lower of cost or market accounting or when adjusting carrying values, such as for loans held for sale, impaired loans, and other real estate owned. Fair value is also used when evaluating impairment on certain assets, including HTM and AFS securities, goodwill, core deposit and other intangibles, long-lived assets, and for disclosures required by SFAS 107.
AFS and trading investment securities are fair valued under Level 1 using quoted market prices when available for identical securities. When quoted prices are not available, fair values are determined under Level 2 using quoted prices for similar securities or independent pricing services that incorporate observable market data when possible. AFS securities also include certain CDOs that consist of trust preferred securities related to banks and insurance companies and to REITs.
Substantially all the CDO portfolio is fair valued under a Level 3 cash flow modeling approach using several methodologies that primarily include internal and third party models.
A licensed third party model is used internally to fair value bank and insurance trust preferred CDOs. This model uses third party, model-derived estimates of expected losses on underlying collateral and applies market-based discount rates on resultant cash flows to estimate fair value. Adverse market developments that continued in the first half of 2009 made it more difficult to determine appropriate assumptions for this model. These developments related to ratings downgrades, declines in trading volumes, increases in the number of defaulting and deferring collateral issuers, and other factors. Assumptions for discount rates, probabilities of default, loss-given rates, etc., reflect related risk assessments on specific CDO securities and tranches within those securities. The guidance of FSP FAS 157-4 has been utilized in our 2009 analysis.
Third party models are used to fair value certain REIT and ABS CDOs. These models utilize relevant data assumptions, which we evaluate for reasonableness. These assumptions include but are not limited to discount rates, probabilities of default, loss-given rates, over-collateralization levels, and rating transition probability matrices from rating agencies. The model prices obtained from third party services were evaluated for reasonableness including quarter to quarter changes in assumptions and comparison to other available data which included third party and internal model results and valuations.
Private equity investments valued under Level 2 on a recurring basis are investments in partnerships that invest in financial institutions. Fair values are determined from net asset values provided by the partnerships. Private equity investments valued under Level 3 on a recurring basis are recorded initially at acquisition cost, which is considered the best indication of fair value unless there have been significant subsequent positive or negative developments that justify an adjustment in the fair value estimate. Subsequent adjustments to recorded fair values are based as necessary on current and projected financial performance, recent financing activities, economic and market conditions, market comparables, market liquidity, sales restrictions, and other factors.
Derivatives are fair valued according to their classification as either exchange-traded or over-the-counter (OTC). Exchange-traded derivatives consist of forward currency exchange contracts that have been fair valued under Level 1 because they are traded in active markets. OTC derivatives consist of interest rate swaps and options as well as energy commodity derivatives for customers. These derivatives are fair valued primarily under Level 2 using third party services. Observable market inputs include yield curves, option volatilities, counterparty credit risk, and other related data. Credit valuation adjustments are required to reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterpartys nonperformance risk. These adjustments are determined generally by applying a credit spread for the counterparty or the Company as appropriate to the total expected exposure of the derivative. Amounts disclosed in the following table are also net of the cash collateral offsets pursuant to the guidance of FSP FIN 39-1, as discussed in Note 5.
26
ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Securities sold, not yet purchased are fair valued under Level 1 when quoted prices are available for the securities involved. Those under Level 2 are fair valued similar to trading account investment securities.

Loans held for sale relate to loans purchased under the Small Business Administration 7(a) program. They are fair valued under Level 2 based on quotes of comparable instruments.
Impaired loans that are collateral-dependent are fair valued under Level 3 based on the fair value of the collateral, which is then further discounted (12-20%) to reflect marketing costs and potential volatility in realizable values.
Other real estate owned is fair valued under Level 2 at the lower of cost or fair value based on property appraisals at the time of transfer and as appropriate thereafter.
Fair Value Option
SFAS 159 allows for the option to report certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value initially and at subsequent measurement dates with changes in fair value included in earnings. The option may be applied instrument by instrument, but is on an irrevocable basis. As of January 1, 2008, the Company elected the fair value option for one available-for-sale REIT trust preferred CDO security and three retained interests on selected small business loan securitizations. The cumulative effect of adopting SFAS 159 decreased retained earnings at January 1, 2008 by approximately $11.5 million.
The REIT trust preferred CDO was selected as part of a directional hedging program to hedge the credit exposure the Company has to homebuilders in its REIT CDO portfolio. This allows the Company to avoid complex hedge accounting provisions associated with the implemented hedging program. Management selected this security because it had the most exposure to the homebuilder market compared to the other REIT CDOs in the Companys portfolio, both in dollar amount and as a percentage, and was therefore considered the most suitable for hedging.
The retained interests had been selected to more appropriately reflect their fair value and to account for increases and decreases in their fair value through earnings. During 2008, Zions Bank purchased securities from Lockhart that comprised the entire remaining small business loan securitizations created by Zions Bank and held by Lockhart. These retained interests related to the securities purchased and, as part of the purchase transaction, were included with the premium recorded with the loan balances at Zions Bank.

This summary excludes financial assets and liabilities for which carrying value approximates fair value. For financial assets, these include cash and due from banks and money market investments. For financial liabilities, these include demand, savings, and money market deposits, federal funds purchased, and security repurchase agreements. The estimated fair value of demand, savings, and money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. SFAS 107 requires the use of carrying value because the accounts have no stated maturity and the customer has the ability to withdraw funds immediately. Also excluded from the summary are financial instruments recorded at value fair on a recurring basis, as previously described.
The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting future cash flows on pass grade loans using the LIBOR yield curve adjusted by a factor which reflects the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the loan. These future cash flows are then reduced by the estimated life-of-the-loan aggregate credit losses in the loan portfolio. These adjustments for lifetime future credit losses are highly judgmental because the Company does not have a validated model to estimate lifetime losses on large portions of its loan portfolio. Loans accounted for under SFAS 114 are not included in this credit adjustment as they are already considered to be held at fair value. Loans, other than those held for sale, are not normally purchased and sold by the Company, and there are no active trading markets for most of this portfolio.
The fair value of time and foreign deposits, FHLB advances, and other borrowings is estimated by discounting future cash flows using the LIBOR yield curve. Variable rate FHLB advances reprice with changes in market rates; as such, their carrying amounts approximate fair value. The estimated fair value of long-term debt is based on discounting cash flows using the LIBOR yield curve plus credit spreads, adjusted for an estimate of credit losses as required by SFAS 157.
These fair value disclosures represent our best estimates based on relevant market information and information about the financial instruments. Fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of the various instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in the above methodologies and assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
Further, certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments are excluded from the applicable disclosure requirements. Therefore, the fair value amounts shown in the table do not, by themselves, represent the underlying value of the Company as a whole.

ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
The operating segment identified as Other includes the Parent, Zions Management Services Company (ZMSC), certain nonbank financial service and financial technology subsidiaries, other smaller nonbank operating units, TCBO, and eliminations of transactions between segments. ZMSC provides internal technology and operational services to affiliated operating businesses of the Company. ZMSC charges most of its costs to the affiliates on an approximate break-even basis.
The accounting policies of the individual operating segments are the same as those of the Company. Transactions between operating segments are primarily conducted at fair value, resulting in profits that are eliminated for reporting consolidated results of operations. Operating segments pay for centrally provided services based upon estimated or actual usage of those services.

Internal Model
In the third quarter of 2008, the Company began using a licensed third party model to value bank and insurance trust preferred collateralized debt obligations (CDOs). The model uses a combination of market-based and ratings based estimates of expected loss for the individual pieces of underlying collateral to arrive at a pool-level expected loss rate for each CDO. These loss assumptions are applied to the CDOs structure to generate cash flow projections for each tranche of the CDO. The fair value of each tranche is determined by discounting its resultant loss-adjusted cash flows with appropriate market based discount rates.
During the fourth quarter of 2008 and continuing into 2009, several market developments made it increasingly difficult to use rating levels referenced to collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) when discounting CDO cash flows. Included in these developments are the following:
| Moodys downgraded a large portion of the CDO tranches resulting in most of the securities carrying a split rating of either investment grade or non investment grade. A significant number of securities exhibited substantial differences in ratings at June 30, 2009. |
| Trading volume including new issuances in CLOs, which had been among the most liquid structured products, declined significantly. As a result, the market information became less reliable for CLOs and less relevant for other structured products. |
| As the number of deferring and defaulted securities within the bank and insurance trust preferred CDO pools increased, each CDO has become more unique. At the end of the second quarter of 2009, the amount of currently deferring collateral ranged from none up to 61% in the sixty CDO deals of which Zions owns tranches. |
| As the credit quality of the performing securities within the bank and insurance trust preferred CDO pools diverged, the Companys projection for further collateral defaults became more pool specific. For example, the additional projected 5 year cumulative defaults for the CDO collateral pools ranged from 2.8% to 8.6% at the end of the quarter. |

ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
| Finally, the FASBs April 9, 2009 issuance of FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Indentifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly, provided additional guidance on determining fair value for assets when the markets for such assets have low or no activity. The FASB view is that a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability is an indication that transactions or quoted prices may not be determinative of fair value. |
The method for deriving loss expectation for collateral underlying the CDOs depends on whether the collateral is from a public or private company. For public companies, a term structure of Probabilities of Default (PDs) is obtained from a commercially available service. The service estimates PDs using a proprietary reduced form model derived using logistic regression on a historical default database. Because the services model requires equity valuation related inputs (along with other macro and firm specific inputs) to produce default probabilities, the service does not produce results for private firms and some very small public firms that do not have readily available market data.
For private companies (and the few small public companies not evaluated by the service) PDs are estimated based on credit ratings. The credit ratings come from two external rating sources; one specific to banks, and the other to insurers. The Company has credit ratings for each piece of collateral whether private or public. Using the PD data on the public companies obtained from the commercial service, the Company calculates the average PD for each credit rating level by industry. The rating level average is then applied to all corresponding credits within each rating level that do not have a PD from the commercial service.
The PDs for the underlying collateral are then used to develop CDO deal-level expected loss curves. Loss curves include an assumed recovery rate on currently performing collateral (non defaulted or deferring) of either 10% or 40%, with the lower recovery assumed for issuers that were not recipients of TARP capital and the higher assumption for those issuers that are or were TARP recipients. An external service which models the unique cash-flow waterfall and structure of each CDO deal is used to generate tranche-level cash flows using the Companys derived CDO deal-level loss assumptions (along with other relevant assumptions). The resultant cash-flows are discounted using the discount rate assumptions described below in order to produce valuations.
Due to the ongoing market developments outlined above, the Company determined during the first quarter of 2009 it would no longer be appropriate to bucket securities by ratings level and make reference to yield indices of structured finance securities from other asset classes in order to establish the discount margins required to estimate fair value of CDO securities. Instead, a more granular approach was developed to reflect the specific risks embedded in every deal and to reference trading levels of publicly traded single issuer trust preferred securities. This change in inputs/assumptions was driven by market developments and was not related to the Companys adoption of FSP FAS 157-4.
The discount rate assumption used for valuation purpose for each CDO tranche was derived from trading yields on publicly traded trust preferred securities and projected default probabilities on the underlying financial companies. For the quarter ending June 30, 2009, the discount margins on the traded securities were regressed to those of the CDOs by comparing expected levels of cash flow impairments between the two types of securities after adjusting the regressions slope to acknowledge the greater uncertainty in the cash flows of junior trust preferred CDO tranches compared to single name trust preferred securities with similar projected default probabilities. CDO tranches with greater uncertainty in their cash flows should be discounted at rates in excess of those rates that market participants would use for tranches with more stable expected cash flows as a result of more subordination and/or better credit quality in the underlying collateral. The effect of this assumption methodology for the quarter ending June 30, 2009, was discount margins between LIBOR + 3.92% and LIBOR + 13.19% with the low end applied to tranches with substantial current subordination and/or high credit quality of remaining performing collateral. The high end of the discount margin spectrum was applied to tranches in which minor changes in future default assumptions produced substantial deterioration in tranche cash flows. These discount rates are applied to the model to produce credit stressed cash flows which constitute each tranches expected cash flows, not to a hypothetical contractual cash flow.

ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
During the first quarter of 2009, the Company modified its recovery rate assumption which is a component of the CDO loss assumption. As of March 31, 2009, the model incorporated a 60% loss assumption for trust preferred collateral where the deferral option of the issuer had been exercised as permitted under the terms of the security. The assumption is supported by observable data on default probabilities for banks with deferring collateral, trading levels for a deferring publicly traded trust preferred security and other data relevant to banks in deferral. An option to defer current interest and capitalize such interest for up to five years is a standard in trust preferred securities. If and when deferring issuers were to default, the model would revert to a 0% recovery rate. This change in inputs/assumptions was driven by market developments and not related to the Companys adoption of FSP FAS 157-4.
The following schedule sets forth the sensitivity of the current CDO fair values using an internal model to changes in the most significant assumptions utilized in the model:

During the second quarter favorable changes in future cumulative credit losses were largely driven by market improvements in bank debt and equity prices. Given the transfers of securities from held-to-maturity (HTM) to available-for-sale (AFS) disclosed elsewhere, the remaining HTM portfolio is generally of better credit quality than the portion of the AFS portfolio with the same ratings level.
Third Party Models
At June 30, 2009, the Company utilized third party valuation services for fifteen securities with an aggregate amortized cost of $188 million in the ABS CDO and trust preferred asset classes. These securities continued to have insufficient observable market data available to directly determine prices. The Company reviewed the methodologies employed by third party models. This included a review of all relevant data inputs and the appropriateness of key model assumptions. These assumptions included, but were not limited to, probability of default, collateral recovery rates, discount rates, over-collateralization levels, and rating transition probability matrices from rating agencies. The model valuations obtained from third party services were evaluated for reasonableness including quarter to quarter changes in assumptions and comparison to other available data which included third party and internal model results and valuations. A range of value estimates is not provided because third party vendors utilized point estimates.
Auction rate and municipal securities with an amortized cost of $220 million were valued using third party created matrix referencing ratings as the key variable with regards to valuation.
Dealer Quotes
The $43 million of asset-backed securities at amortized cost are valued using nonbinding and unadjusted dealer quotes. Multiple quotes are not available and the values provided are based on a combination of proprietary dealer quotes. Broker disclosure levels vary and the Company seeks to minimize dependence on this Level 3 source. Of the $43 million of securities, approximately $16 million are AAA rated.
CDS Spreads
A total of $68 million at amortized cost of insured securities purchased out of Lockhart were valued using the relevant monoline insurers credit derivative levels.
In addition, a total of $17 million of municipal securities with puts back to the underwriter in 2010 were valued using the CDS Spread of the underwriter.

Other-than-Temporary Impairment (OTTI) Debt Investment Securities
We review investment debt securities on an ongoing basis for the presence of OTTI with formal reviews performed quarterly. Net OTTI losses on individual investment securities are recognized as a realized loss through earnings when it is more likely than not that the Company will not collect all of the contractual cash flows or the Company is unable to hold the securities to recovery.
The Companys OTTI evaluation process conforms with the rules contained in Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 99-20, Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased and Retained Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, FSP No. EITF 99-20-1, Amendments to the Impairment Guidance of EITF Issue No. 99-20, FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments, and SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. These rules require the Company to take into consideration current market conditions, fair value in relationship to cost, extent and nature of change in fair value, issuer rating changes and trends, volatility of earnings, current analysts evaluations, all available information relevant to the collectability of debt securities, our ability and intent to hold investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, and other factors when evaluating for the existence of OTTI in our securities portfolio.

On January 12, 2009, the FASB issued FSP EITF 99-20-1, Amendments to the Impairment Guidance of EITF Issue No. 99-20. This FSP is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2008, and shall be applied prospectively. The FSP amends EITF 99-20 by eliminating the requirement that a holders best estimate of cash flows be based upon those that a market participant would use. Instead, the FSP requires that OTTI be recognized as a realized loss through earnings when it is probable there has been an adverse change in the holders estimated cash flows from the cash flows previously projected, which is consistent with the impairment model in SFAS 115.
On April 9, 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments. This FSP is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with the option to early adopt this FSP for the first quarter of 2009, and shall be applied prospectively with a cumulative effect adjustment for prior OTTI illiquidity losses. The Company elected to early adopt this FSP during the first quarter of 2009. The Company recorded a $137.5 million after tax cumulative effect adjustment upon adoption of the FSP. Retained earnings were increased and other comprehensive income decreased. The FSP amends FAS 115 and FAS 124 and significantly changes how an entity evaluates whether impairment is other than temporary and how to recognize OTTI for debt securities classified as available-for-sale or held-to-maturity.
The three most significant changes that impacted the determination and calculation of OTTI are first, a requirement that an entity conclude it does not intend to sell an impaired security and it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before the recovery of its amortized cost basis. Second, a requirement to assess the collectability of cash flows based on a more likely than not basis which is a lower threshold for recognizing an OTTI charge from a probable basis under the prior accounting rule. Finally, a requirement to recognize the total OTTI charge for debt securities in separate amounts one amount representing the decrease in cash flows expected to be collected (credit loss), which is recognized in earnings and the second amount representing the amount related to all other factors (illiquidity loss), which is recognized in OCI. Also for securities classified as held-to-maturity, this FSP requires that the amount of OTTI recognized in OCI be accreted (through OCI) over the remaining life of the security.
The Company recognized pretax OTTI losses of $71.5 million during the second quarter of 2009 and $38.8 million during the second quarter of 2008 on investment debt securities. All of the impairment for 2009 related to securities valued using Level 3 inputs. Management determined that $42.0 million of the impairment for the second quarter of 2009 related to credit loss impairment. Net credit loss impairments for the first six months of 2009 were $124.6 million. The significant inputs used in the methodology to calculate this credit loss impairment is described under Valuation of Asset-Backed Securities with the exception that while the discount rate used for valuation is a market level discount rate, the discount rate used to determine the presence and amount of credit impairment is the security specific coupon rate. The expected cash flows are credit stressed in that they incorporate the effect of both collateral nonperformance and projected additional nonperformance. The expected cash flows are discounted at the security specific coupon rate to identify the credit component of OTTI.
The decision to deem these securities OTTI was based on a specific analysis of the structure of each security and an evaluation of the underlying collateral using information and industry knowledge available to the Company. Future reviews for OTTI will consider the particular facts and circumstances during the reporting period in review.
Debt Modification
During the second quarter of 2009, the Company executed a subordinated debt modification and exchange transaction. The Company exchanged approximately $0.2 billion of subordinated notes for new notes with the same terms. The remaining $1.2 billion of subordinated notes were modified to permit conversion on a par-for par-basis into either the Companys Series A or Series C preferred stock. Net of issuance costs and debt discount on the previous debt, the pretax gain recognized in earnings from this subordinated debt modification was approximately $493.7 million. Additionally the Company recorded $201.2 million after-tax directly in common stock for the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature. The determination of whether the modification is considered a debt extinguishment followed EITF Issue 96-19, Debtors Accounting for a Modification or Exchange of Debt Instruments.

Preferred Stock Redemption
During the second quarter the Company purchased 4,020,435 depositary shares of Series A preferred stock (each share representing a 1/40 th ownership interest in a share of preferred stock) at a price of $11.50 per depositary share, or an aggregate amount of $46.4 million including accrued dividends. At a $25 per depositary share liquidation preference, the purchase reduced the $240 million carrying value of the Series A preferred stock by approximately $100.5 million. Net of related costs, the redemption resulted in a $52.4 million increase to retained earnings. The Company calculation and presentation of the redemption conforms with the rules contained in EITF Issue Topic D-42, Recognition Effects of Contracts That May Be Settled in Stock or Cash on the Computation of Diluted Earnings per Share.
Share Based Compensation
The Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock options granted for share based compensation in the second quarter of 2009. The assumptions used to apply this model include a weighted average risk-free interest rate, a weighted average expected life, an expected dividend yield, and an expected volatility. The second quarter of 2009 stock options grant assumptions were 2.245% for the weighted average risk-free interest rate, 4.5 years for the weighted average expected life, 1.0% for the expected dividend yield, and 33.0% for the expected volatility. Use of these assumptions is subjective and requires management judgment to determine the assumptions used in the model. During the second quarter of 2009, the Company granted 677,585 stock options and 689,656 shares of restricted stock.
Accounting for Goodwill
Goodwill arises from business acquisitions and represents the value attributable to the unidentifiable intangible elements in our acquired businesses. Goodwill is initially recorded at fair value and is subsequently evaluated at least annually for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. The Company performs this annual test as of October 1 of each year. Evaluations are also performed on a more frequent basis if events or circumstances indicate impairment could have taken place. Such events could include, among others, a significant adverse change in the business climate, a significant adverse change in market values of similar businesses, an adverse action by a regulator, an unanticipated change in the competitive environment, and a decision to change the operations or dispose of a reporting unit.
During the first quarter of 2009, we performed a goodwill impairment evaluation for Amegy and California Bank & Trust, effective February 28, 2009, due to the Companys performance deterioration and market decline from December 31, 2008. Step 1 was performed by using both market value and discounted cash flow approaches for Amegy and California Bank & Trust. In the market value approach, we identified a group of publicly traded banks using primarily size, location and business mix compared to Zions subsidiary banks. We then used valuation multiples, including a control premium, developed from this group to apply to our subsidiary banks. Due to the limited number of non-distressed or failed bank merger and acquisition transactions during the past 12 months, the transaction value approach was not used in this analysis. In the discounted cash flow approach we discounted projected cash flows to their present value using an estimated long-term cost of equity specific to each reporting unit, to arrive at our estimate of fair value.
45
ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Upon completion of step 1 of the evaluation process, we concluded that potential impairment existed at the Companys Amegy reporting unit. Step 2 was completed with the assistance of an independent valuation consultant and the Companys internal valuation resources and resulted in $634.0 million of impairment losses in the first quarter of 2009. This evaluation process required us to make estimates and assumptions with regard to the fair value of the Companys reporting units and actual values may differ significantly from these estimates. Such differences could result in future impairment of goodwill that would, in turn, negatively impact the Companys results of operations and the business segments where the goodwill is recorded.
Significant remaining amounts of goodwill at June 30, 2008 were as follows: Amegy $616 million, CB&T $379 million, and Zions Bank $20 million. We expect that the current disrupted market conditions may require us to evaluate goodwill more frequently, including quarterly, as the circumstances warrant. Any differences between estimated fair values and carrying values could result in future impairment of goodwill.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company reported a net loss applicable to common shareholders of $23.8 million or $0.21 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2009 compared to net earnings applicable to common shareholders of $69.7 million or $0.65 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2008. The decrease is mainly due to a $648.5 million increase in the provision for loan losses, a $37.7 million increase in FDIC premiums expense, a $22.5 million increase in other real estate expense, and a $14.9 million increase in valuation losses on securities purchased and net impairment losses on investment securities offset by the $493.7 million gain on subordinated debt modification, $52.4 million from a preferred stock redemption, a $40.1 million increase in fair value and nonhedge derivative income and $23.0 million of acquisition related gains.
Net loss applicable to common shareholders for the first six months of 2009 was $876.1 million or $7.62 per diluted share, compared to net earnings applicable to common shareholders of $174.0 million or $1.62 per diluted share for the first six months of 2008. The decrease reflects an $853.8 million increase in the provision for loan losses, a $634.0 million goodwill impairment charge, a $252.0 million increase in valuation losses on securities purchased and net impairment losses on investment securities, a $47.7 million increase in FDIC premiums expense and a $39.0 million increase in other real estate expense, offset by the $493.7 million gain on subordinated debt modification, $52.4 million from a preferred stock redemption, a $40.3 million increase in fair value and nonhedge derivative income, and $23.0 million of acquisition related gains.
Net Interest Income, Margin and Interest Rate Spreads
Taxable-equivalent net interest income for the second quarter of 2009 increased 1.8% to $499.4 million compared with $490.6 million for the comparable period of 2008. This increase reflects multiple factors including the impact of loan renewals at wider spreads, modest loan growth, and a significantly lower cost of funds offset by significant increases in nonaccrual loans and nonaccrual securities and higher money market investment balances earning lower rates during the second quarter of 2009. The tax rate used for calculating all taxable-equivalent adjustments was 35% for all periods presented.
The Companys net interest margin was 4.09% for the second quarter of 2009 compared to 3.93% for the first quarter of 2009 and 4.18% for second quarter of 2008. The margin increase for the second quarter of 2009 compared to the first quarter of 2009 resulted primarily from the reduction of high-cost deposits and low-yielding assets, and the large growth in noninterest bearing demand deposits. The margin decrease for second quarter of 2009 compared to the second quarter of 2008 was primarily due to increased nonaccrual loans and increased nonaccrual securities partially offset by increased low cost deposit funding.
The spread on average interest-bearing funds for the second quarter of 2009 was 3.71%, which increased from 3.53% for the first quarter of 2009 and was flat from 3.71% for the second quarter of 2008. The spread on average interest-bearing funds for the second quarter of 2009 has benefited from improved loan spreads on newly originated and renewed loans; however, increased nonperforming assets throughout the year negatively impacted loan spreads.
46
ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Net interest margin will be reduced in future quarters due to the impact of nonperforming assets and several factors related to the debt modification transaction that occurred in the second quarter of 2009. In prior quarters, the net interest margin had accreted swap gains on terminated swaps that reduced interest expense on long-term debt and improved the margin. Because of the debt modification transaction that occurred in the second quarter of 2009, most of those swap gains were recognized in noninterest income and therefore eliminated most of that earnings benefit from this accretion of deferred interest rate swap income in future quarters. The debt modification transaction also resulted in a discount of approximately $666 million on the modified convertible subordinated debt that will be amortized as interest expense over the remaining life of the debt. If debt holders exercise their option to convert debt to preferred stock the accretion of the discount will be accelerated at time of conversion.
The Company expects to continue its efforts over the long run to maintain a slightly asset-sensitive position with regard to interest rate risk. Because of the current low interest rate environment the Company is allowing the balance sheet to become more asset-sensitive by reducing our use of interest rate swaps against our loans. The Companys loans are generally floating rate, and the historical use of swaps has reduced our interest rate sensitivity; however, with interest rates at historically low levels, there is a reduced need to protect against falling interest rates. Our estimates of the Companys actual rate risk position is highly dependent upon changes in both short-term and long-term interest rates, modeling assumptions, and the actions of competitors and customers in response to those changes. Further detail on interest rate risk is discussed in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 in Interest Rate Risk on page 111 and this filing in Interest Rate Risk.

Provisions for Credit Losses
The provision for loan losses is the amount of expense that, based on our judgment, is required to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an adequate level based upon the inherent risks in the portfolio. The provision for unfunded lending commitments is used to maintain the reserve for unfunded lending commitments at an adequate level. In determining adequate levels of the allowance and reserve, we perform periodic evaluations of the Companys various portfolios, the levels of actual charge-offs, and statistical trends and other economic factors. See Credit Risk Management for more information on how we determine the appropriate level for the allowance for loan and lease losses and the reserve for unfunded lending commitments.
The provision for loan losses for the second quarter of 2009 was $762.7 million compared to $114.2 million for the same period of 2008. On an annualized basis, the provision was 7.44% of average loans excluding FDIC-supported assets for the second quarter of 2009 compared to 1.13% for the second quarter of 2008. Net loan and lease charge-offs increased to $347.5 million (3.39% annualized of average loans excluding FDIC-supported assets) in the second quarter of 2009 up from $151.7 million (1.47% annualized of average loans excluding FDIC-supported assets) in the first quarter of 2009. Net loan and lease charge-offs were $67.8 million (0.67% annualized of average loans) in the second quarter of 2008. The increased provision for the second quarter of 2009 was attributable to a higher level of criticized and classified loans, higher realized loss content in these loan categories, continued deterioration in collateral values primarily in land acquisition, development and construction loans, and also higher delinquency rates in consumer and commercial loan portfolios, all of which resulted in re-estimation of some of our loss migration factors using more recent loss rates. See Nonperforming Assets and Allowance and Reserve for Credit Losses for further details. The provision for unfunded lending commitments was $7.9 million for the second quarter of 2009 compared to $1.7 million for the second quarter of 2008 due to the above mentioned re-estimation of loss factors. From period to period, the amounts of unfunded lending commitments may be subject to sizeable fluctuation due to changes in the timing and volume of loan originations and fundings, and by changes in the creditworthiness of borrowers with unfunded commitments. The related provision will generally reflect these fluctuations. When combined, the provisions for credit losses for the second quarter of 2009 were $770.6 million compared to $115.9 million for the second quarter of 2008.
The provision for loan losses for the first six months of 2009 was $1,060.3 million, 413.5% higher than the $206.5 million provision for the first six months of 2008. The increased loan loss provision for the first six months of 2009 compared to 2008 is primarily caused by a re-estimation of some of our loss migration factors, particularly with regard to problem commercial real estate loans, a higher level of criticized and classified loans, and the incorporation of the possibility of a more protracted credit cycle. The provision for unfunded lending commitments was $9.8 million for the first half of 2009 compared to $5.3 million for first half of 2008.
The Companys expectation is that credit conditions will continue to weaken in most of our markets albeit at moderating rates. We believe general economic conditions may continue to weaken, impacting both commercial and consumer borrowers. If the above mentioned items continue, we would expect to continue to build reserves over the next several quarters.
Noninterest Income
For the second quarter of 2009, noninterest income increased 746.6% to $612.7 million compared to $72.4 million of income for the second quarter of 2008. The increase is primarily due to the $493.7 million gain on subordinated debt modification, a $40.1 million increase in fair value and nonhedge derivative income, and $23.0 million of acquisition related gains offset by $14.9 million of increased valuation losses on securities purchased and net impairment losses on investment securities in the second quarter of 2009 compared to the second quarter of 2008. Excluding the previously discussed valuation and impairment losses on securities, the gains on terminated swaps and debt modification, the acquisition related gains, and fair value and nonhedge derivative income for the second quarters of 2009 and 2008, noninterest income was $129.4 million for the second quarter of 2009 and $130.9 million for the second quarter of 2008.

ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Trust and wealth management income decreased 14.9% to $8.8 million for the second quarter of 2009 from $10.3 million for the second quarter of 2008. The decrease is primarily due to lower fees from our trust and wealth management business resulting from lower balances of assets under management and lower 12b-1 mutual fund fees due to lower balances.
Capital markets and foreign exchange income was $16.3 million for the second quarter of 2009 as compared to $12.2 million for the second quarter of 2008. The $4.1 million increase is due to increased trading income from trading of fixed income corporate bonds offset by lower public finance fees.
Dividends and other investment income decreased 74.2% to $2.7 million for the second quarter of 2009 from $10.4 million for the second quarter of 2008. The decrease is primarily due to decreased earnings of approximately $6.8 million from two investment funds and a $1.8 million decrease in Federal Home Loan Bank dividends.
Fair value and nonhedge derivative income was $20.3 million for the second quarter of 2009 compared to a loss of $19.8 million for the second quarter of 2008. The income for the second quarter of 2009 primarily reflects the acceleration of OCI amounts reclassified to income that related to previously terminated hedges and net changes in credit valuation adjustments on derivatives. The loss for the second quarter of 2008 was primarily due to decreases in the fair value of nonhedge derivatives resulting from decreasing spreads between LIBOR and prime rates.
The Company recognized net impairment losses on investment securities of $42.0 million during the second quarter of 2009 compared to $38.8 million during the second quarter of 2008. The total impairment loss for the second quarter of 2009 was $71.5 million and the illiquidity portion of the OTTI charged against OCI was $29.5 million. These OTTI losses were for certain CDOs, including bank and insurance CDOs, ABS CDOs, and REIT trust preferred CDOs. See Investment Securities Portfolio for additional information.
Valuation losses on securities purchased were $11.7 million, which was comprised of $6.2 million from purchases of securities from Lockhart Funding LLC, prior to fully consolidating Lockhart in June 2009, and $5.5 million for additional valuation adjustments to auction rate securities previously purchased from customers during the first quarter of 2009. The Company had no valuation losses on purchased securities during the second quarter of 2008. The $6.2 million of valuation losses on securities purchased resulted from purchases by Zions Bank from Lockhart of $141 million of previously AAA and AA-rated securities that were downgraded during the second quarter of 2009 as well as marking to fair value the remaining securities in Lockhart after it was consolidated.
The gain on subordinated debt modification of $493.7 million in the second quarter of 2009 resulted from actions the Company took to modify subordinated debt. The Company exchanged approximately $0.2 billion of subordinated notes for new notes with the same terms. The remaining $1.2 billion of subordinated notes were modified to permit conversion on a par for par basis into either the Companys Series A or Series C preferred stock. Net of issuance costs and debt discount on the previous debt, the pretax gain recognized in earnings from this debt modification was $332.4 million. Additionally, the Company recognized deferred gains of $161.3 million pretax on terminated swaps related to the subordinated debt that was modified.
Acquisition related gains were $23.0 million in the second quarter of 2009 due to the acquisition of failed financial institutions from the FDIC. These gains resulted from the acquisition of assets that had a fair value in excess of the fair value of liabilities assumed. The acquisitions involved loss sharing agreements with the FDIC. California Bank & Trust acquired Alliance Bank on February 6, 2009 and Nevada State Bank acquired Great Basin Bank on April 17, 2009.

ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
For the first six months of 2009, noninterest income increased 154.9% to $467.5 million compared to $183.4 million of income for the first six months of 2008. Explanations previously provided for the quarterly changes also apply to the year-to-date changes. Additional explanations of variances follow.
Service charges and fees on deposit accounts increased $4.0 million or 3.9% for the first six months of 2009 compared to the same period of 2008. The increase reflects reduced business deposit account earnings credits due to lower interest rates.
Other service charges, commissions, and fees decreased $5.8 million or 6.9% for the first six months of 2009, compared to the same period in 2008. The decrease reflected a reduction of lending related fees, mutual fund sweep product fees, official check fees, and other fees.
Loan sales and servicing income for the first six months of 2009 decreased $3.4 million or 21.0% compared to the first six months of 2008. The decreased income is primarily due to decreased servicing fees on small business loans resulting from the dissolution of the loan securitizations in Lockhart during 2008.
Income from securities conduit decreased $2.5 million or 70.0% for the first six months of 2009 compared to the first six months of 2008. This servicing income represents fees we receive from Lockhart and decreased because of the higher cost of asset-backed commercial paper due to disruptions in the commercial paper markets and because of the diminishing size of Lockharts securities portfolio. In June of 2009, Lockhart was consolidated onto the books of Zions Bank and thus eliminated the income from the securities conduit. All else being equal, net interest income increased as Lockhart-related assets were brought onto the Companys balance sheet, roughly offsetting the decrease to noninterest income.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2009 was $419.5 million, an increase of 18.4% from $354.4 million for the second quarter of 2008.
Salaries and employee benefits increased $1.1 million or 0.6% compared to the second quarter of 2008. Salaries and employee benefits included approximately $4.3 million of severance costs in second quarter of 2009. Full-time equivalent staffing has been reduced by 3.4% from December 31, 2008 even after adding personnel from FDIC-assisted acquisitions.
Other real estate expense increased $22.5 million compared to the second quarter of 2008. The increase is primarily due to increased OREO balances and write downs resulting from declining property values, mainly in Arizona, Nevada and Utah.
FDIC premiums increased $37.7 million as compared to the second quarter of 2008. The increase is due to increased FDIC premium rate charges on the banks deposits in first quarter of 2009 and the impact of an FDIC special assessment on assets of the Company to bolster the deposit insurance fund. The Companys expense associated with the special assessment was approximately $24.2 million.
Other noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2009 increased $10.7 million or 18.4% compared to the second quarter of 2008. This increase is primarily due to $5.1 million of debt extinguishment costs for certain long-term FHLB debt and $7.9 million for the provision for unfunded lending commitments compared to $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2008.

ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
For the first six months of 2009, noninterest expense increased 12.9% to $795.7 million compared to $704.5 million for the first six months of 2008. Explanations previously provided for the quarterly changes also apply to the year-to-date changes.
At June 30, 2009, the Company had 10,632 full-time equivalent employees, 481 domestic branches, and 584 ATMs, compared to 10,985 full-time equivalent employees, 506 domestic branches, and 625 ATMs at June 30, 2008.
Impairment Losses on Goodwill
The goodwill impairment losses of $634.0 million for the first six months of 2009 resulted from a goodwill impairment analysis completed during the first quarter of 2009 by the Company. The goodwill impairment analysis resulted in impairment losses on goodwill at the Amegy reporting unit.
The primary causes of the goodwill impairment loss in our Amegy reporting unit reflects declines in market values of peer banks in Texas and a weaker economic outlook in that state. See Accounting for Goodwill for further discussion of the goodwill impairment.
Income Taxes
The Companys income tax benefit for the second quarter of 2009 was $23.8 million compared to an income tax expense of $22.0 million for the same period in 2008. The effective income tax rates, including the effects of noncontrolling interests, for the second quarter of 2009 and 2008 were 31.9% and 23.4% and for the first six months of 2009 and 2008 were 16.7% and 28.7%. The tax rate for the second quarter of 2009 was impacted by approximately $3.8 million of taxes and penalties for the one-time redemption of certain bank-owned life insurance contracts. The tax rate for the second quarter of 2008 was impacted by a $5.9 million reduction of a FIN 48 tax liability and related interest for uncertain tax positions due primarily to settlement of uncertain tax positions with governmental authorities. The lower tax rate for the first six months of 2009 compared to 2008 is mainly due to nondeductible goodwill impairment charges. As discussed in previous filings, the Company has received federal income tax credits under the U.S. Governments Community Development Financial Institutions Fund that are recognized over a seven-year period from the year of investment. The effect of these tax credits was to reduce income tax expense by $3.0 million and $2.9 million for the first six months of 2009 and 2008, respectively.
BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS
Interest-Earning Assets
Interest-earning assets are those assets that have interest rates or yields associated with them and consist of money market investments, securities and loans.
Average interest-earning assets increased 4.8% to $49.3 billion for the six months of 2009 compared to $47.0 billion for the same period in 2008. Average interest-earning assets as a percentage of total average assets for the first six months of 2009 was 90.1% compared to 88.6% for the comparable period of 2008.
Average money market investments, consisting of interest-bearing deposits and commercial paper, federal funds sold and security resell agreements, increased 26.2% to $2,450 million for the first six months of 2009 compared to $1,942 million for the same period of 2008. Average money market investments for the six months of 2009 included $238 million of asset-backed commercial paper that subsidiary companies purchased from Lockhart compared to $1,147 million during the same period of 2008. The increase in the average money market investment balance during the first six months reflects the efforts by the Company to build a stronger liquidity position in first quarter of 2009 and was subsequently reduced during the second quarter of 2009.

The following tables present the Companys held-to-maturity and available-for-sale investment securities at June 30, 2009, December 31, 2008, and June 30, 2008. The amortized cost amounts represent the Companys original cost for the investments, adjusted for accumulated amortization or accretion of any yield adjustments related to the security and credit impairment losses. The estimated fair values are the amounts that we believe most accurately reflect assumptions that other participants in the market place would use in pricing the securities as of the dates indicated.
The first two tables present the Companys investment securities, including asset-backed securities classified by the highest of the ratings and the lowest ratings from any of Moodys Investors Service, Fitch Ratings or Standard & Poors as of June 30, 2009. The majority of these securities had noninvestment grade designations by one or more rating agencies at June 30, 2009.

1 | Carrying value is disclosed due to changes related to the transfer of available-for-sale investment securities to held-to-maturity during the second quarter of 2008. |
The amortized cost of investment securities at June 30, 2009 increased 15.3% from the balance at December 31, 2008. The change was largely due to Zions Bank purchasing securities from Lockhart ($678 million), the Company purchasing auction rate securities from customers ($237 million), securities acquired in the FDIC assisted transactions of the failed Alliance Bank and failed Great Basin Bank ($180 million), the impact of the adoption of FSP FAS 115-2 and 124-2 ($230 million) offset by OTTI write-downs, valuation losses on security purchases, and security maturity paydowns. See further discussion of securities purchases from Lockhart in Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement. As discussed further in Risk Elements: Market Risk Fixed Income, changes in fair value on available-for-sale securities have been reflected in shareholders equity through accumulated other comprehensive income (OCI).
At June 30, 2009, 6.8% of the $3.9 billion of fair value of available-for-sale securities portfolio as shown previously was valued at Level 1, 44.8% was valued at Level 2, and 48.4% was valued at Level 3 under the GAAP fair value accounting valuation hierarchy. See Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of fair value accounting.
The amortized cost of available-for-sale investment securities valued at Level 3 was $2,625 million and the fair value of these securities was $1,889 million. The securities valued at Level 3 were comprised of CDOs and auction rate securities. For these Level 3 securities, net pretax unrealized loss recognized in OCI at the end of the second quarter was $736 million. As of June 30, 2009, we believe that the par amounts of the Level 3 available-for-sale securities for which no OTTI has been recognized do not differ from the amounts we currently anticipate realizing on settlement or maturity. See Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Estimates for further details about the CDO securities pricing methodologies.

ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
During the second quarter of 2009, the Company reassessed the classification of certain asset-backed and trust preferred CDOs and reclassified approximately $557 million at fair value of held-to-maturity securities to available-for-sale. These securities were downgraded from an investment grade to a noninvestment grade rating by at least one rating agency during the second quarter of 2009. No gain or loss was recognized in the statement of income at the time of reclassification. During the first six months of 2009, the Company reclassified $596 million at fair value of securities from HTM to AFS.
We review investment securities on an ongoing basis for the presence of OTTI, taking into consideration current market conditions, estimated credit impairment, if any, fair value in relationship to cost, extent and nature of change in fair value, issuer rating changes and trends, volatility of earnings, current analysts evaluations, our ability and intent to hold investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, and other factors. During the second quarter of 2009, the Company incurred $42.0 million of credit-related OTTI charges recorded in earnings and $29.5 million pretax of OTTI related to illiquidity recorded in OCI. The Company incurred $124.6 million of credit-related OTTI charges recorded in earnings and $112.5 million pretax of OTTI related to illiquidity recorded in OCI during the first six months of 2009. The collateral in these securities deemed to have OTTI includes bank and insurance trust preferred debt; debt issued by commercial income REITS, commercial mortgage-backed securities, residential mortgage REITs, and homebuilders. Future reviews for OTTI will consider the particular facts and circumstances during the reporting period in review. See Other-than-Temporary Impairment Debt Investment Securities for further details about the OTTI accounting policy.
The Company recognized valuation losses in the second quarter of 2009 of $11.7 million which included $6.2 million in marking securities purchased from Lockhart Funding LLC to fair value as well as marking to fair value the remaining securities in Lockhart after it was consolidated and $5.5 million for additional valuation adjustments to auction rate securities previously purchased from customers. The Company recognized valuation losses in the first half of 2009 of $187.9 million on securities purchased from Lockhart under the terms of the Liquidity agreement and $24.2 million on auction rate securities purchased from bank customers at par.
During the first half of 2008 the Company recognized valuation losses of $5.2 million on securities purchased from Lockhart. These securities purchased from Lockhart in 2009 and 2008 consisted of REIT CDOs and bank and insurance trust preferred CDOs. See Consolidation of Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement for further details about Lockhart.
The following schedules provide additional information on the below investment grade rated bank and insurance trust preferred CDOs portion of the AFS and HTM portfolio with aggregate data on those securities which have been determined to not have OTTI at June 30, 2009 and those which have been determined to be OTTI at or prior to June 30, 2009. The schedules utilize the current lowest rating to identify those securities below investment grade. The schedules segment the securities by original ratings level to provide granularity on the seniority level of the securities, the distribution of unrealized losses, and on pool level performance and projections. The best and worst pool level statistic for each original ratings subgroup is presented. These statistics are not from a single security.

4 | Utilizes the Companys loss assumption of 100% on defaulted collateral and 60% on deferring collateral. The numerator is all collateral less the sum of 100% of defaulted, 60% of deferring collateral and the amount of each CDOs debt which is senior to or pari passu with our securitys priority level. The denominator is all collateral less the sum of 100% of defaulted collateral and 60% of deferring collateral. For further details on the loss assumption on deferrals see Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Estimates. The Companys experience as of June 30, 2009 is 100% loss on defaults and a 38% loss on deferrals due to transitioning to default with 62% of deferring collateral remaining within allowable deferral period. |

ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
The investment securities portfolio at June 30, 2009 includes $683 million of nonrated fixed income securities. These securities include $657 million of nonrated municipal securities underwritten and structured by Zions Bank in accordance with its established municipal credit standards and $25 million of individual trust preferred bank securities. Nonrated fixed income securities were $707 million at December 31, 2008 and $719 million at June 30, 2008.
Loan Portfolio
Net loans and leases at June 30, 2009 were $41.4 billion, an annualized decrease of 1.2% from December 31, 2008 and a decrease of 0.8% from the balance at June 30, 2008. Excluding the $0.9 billion of FDIC supported assets from acquisitions of failed banks at June 30, 2009, on-balance sheet net loans and leases decreased approximately $1.1 billion or 5.4% annualized during the first six months and decreased approximately $1.2 billion or 2.9% from June 30, 2008 due to pay-downs, charge-offs, and a lack of qualified borrowers requesting credit.

Excluding the addition of the FDIC-supported assets from the Alliance Bank and Great Basin Bank transactions, the loan portfolio contraction during the first six months was concentrated primarily in commercial lending principally at Amegy and Zions Bank and secondarily in commercial construction and land development loans principally at CB&T, NBA, Amegy and NSB. We did have loan growth in the commercial real estate term category principally at Zions Bank, CB&T, and Amegy.
Although we continue to actively try to originate loans, we expect that core loan growth for the next few quarters will most likely be low. This is mainly due to the current economic environment. Pay-downs, charge offs, and other reductions are likely to continue to offset originations. We expect residential construction and land development balances to continue to decline as they have during recent quarters.

Deposits
Average total deposits for the first six months of 2009 increased 16.0% compared to the same period in 2008, with interest-bearing deposits increasing 16.5% and noninterest-bearing deposits increasing 14.3%.
Total deposits at the end of the second quarter of 2009 increased to $42.6 billion, an annualized increase of 6.4% from the balances reported at December 31, 2008, and increased 13.4% over the June 30, 2008 amounts. Actual and average deposits for the six months of 2009 include deposits related to failed bank FDIC-assisted acquisitions.
Demand, savings and money market deposits comprised 78.2% of total deposits at the end of the second quarter of 2009, compared with 74.9% and 73.7% as of December 31, 2008 and June 30, 2008, respectively.
During the second half of 2008, the Company increased brokered deposits to serve as an additional source of liquidity for the Company. At June 30, 2009, total deposits included $2,870 million of brokered deposits compared to $3,269 million at December 31, 2008 and $124 million at June 30, 2008. The average balance of brokered deposits for the first six months of 2009 was $3,308 million and for the first six months of 2008 was $77 million.
Consolidation of Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement
The Company administered a qualifying special-purpose entity (QSPE) securities conduit, Lockhart Funding LLC, which was established in 2000. Lockhart was structured to purchase AAA-rated and other government agency securities and AAA-rated securities that are collateralized by small business loans originated or purchased by Zions Bank; such loans were originated during and prior to 2005. Lockhart obtained funding through the issuance of asset-backed commercial paper.
Lockhart ceased issuance of asset backed commercial paper on April 21, 2009 after Moodys downgraded Zions Bank, as Liquidity Bank, from P1 to NP and downgraded Lockhart as a consequence. At that point, Lockharts longest maturity of commercial paper notes was a $3 million note due to mature on September 15, 2009.
61
ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Effective June 5, 2009, Zions Bank became a holder of over 90% of Lockharts commercial paper notes, causing Lockhart to no longer be a QSPE and thus requiring consolidation of Lockhart by Zions Bank.
At June 30, 2009, Lockharts assets totaled $10 million at book value and were fully consolidated by the Company. Lockharts remaining security portfolio was exclusively SBA-backed securities. After commercial paper notes of Lockhart matured on July 1, 2009, the remaining outstanding commercial paper notes of Lockhart totaled $3 million.
The Program Documents did not provide for cancellation of previously issued Asset Backed Commercial Paper (ABCP). Accordingly, Lockhart Funding LLC and its Program Documents will terminate upon the final maturity of Lockharts Commercial Paper Notes on September 15, 2009 as agreed in an executed Termination Agreement dated May 29, 2009 between all involved parties.
Under the terms of a liquidity facility, prior to Lockharts consolidation Zions Bank purchased, during the second quarter of 2009, $141 million of securities from Lockhart at book value. Zions Bank recognized losses of $6.2 million in marking these securities to fair value as well as marking to fair value the remaining securities in Lockhart after it was consolidated. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, Zions Bank purchased $678 million of securities from Lockhart at book value and recognized losses of $187.9 million in marking the securities to fair value.
See Liquidity Risk Management and Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on Lockhart.
RISK ELEMENTS
Since risk is inherent in substantially all of the Companys operations, management of risk is an integral part of its operations and is also a key determinant of its overall performance. We apply various strategies to reduce the risks to which the Companys operations are exposed, including credit, interest rate and market, liquidity and operational risks.
Credit Risk Management
Credit risk is the possibility of loss from the failure of a borrower or contractual counterparty to fully perform under the terms of a credit-related contract. Credit risk arises primarily from the Companys lending activities, as well as from off-balance sheet credit instruments.
Credit risk is managed centrally through a uniform credit policy, credit administration, and credit exam functions at the Parent. Effective management of credit risk is essential in maintaining a safe, sound and profitable financial institution. We have structured the organization to separate the lending function from the credit administration function, which provides strength to the control over and the independent evaluation of credit activities. Formal loan policies and procedures provide the Company with a framework for consistent underwriting and a basis for sound credit decisions. In addition, the Company has a well-defined set of standards for evaluating its loan portfolio, and management utilizes a comprehensive loan grading system to determine the risk potential in the portfolio. Further, an independent, internal credit examination department periodically conducts examinations of the Companys lending departments. These examinations are designed to review credit quality, adequacy of documentation, appropriate loan grading administration and compliance with lending policies, and reports thereon are submitted to management and to the Credit Review Committee of the Board of Directors.
62
ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management continually develops new analytics to enhance its ability to assess and manage credit risk. One recent development is an enhancement to our internal loan loss database that provided the ability to refine our segmentation by bank, loan segment, and loan grade. This enhancement provided management with loss factors applicable to adversely graded credits which reflect more recent collateral values and loss outcomes for a portion of the portfolio, and which substantially informed managements decision to substantially increase the allowance for credit losses during the second quarter.
Both the credit policy and the credit examination functions are managed centrally. Each affiliate bank is permitted to modify corporate credit policy to be more conservative; however, corporate approval must be obtained if a bank wishes to create a more liberal policy. Historically, only a limited number of such modifications have been approved. This entire process has been designed to place an emphasis on strong underwriting standards and early detection of potential problem credits so that action plans can be developed and implemented on a timely basis to mitigate any potential losses.
With regard to credit risk associated with counterparties to off-balance sheet credit instruments, Zions Bank and Amegy have International Swap Dealer Association (ISDA) agreements in place under which derivative transactions are entered into with major derivative dealers. Each ISDA agreement details the collateral arrangements between Zions Bank and Amegy and their counterparties. In every case, the amount of the collateral required to secure the exposed party in the derivative transaction is determined by the fair value on the derivative and the credit rating of the party with the obligation. The credit rating used in these situations is provided by either Moodys or Standard & Poors. This means that a counterparty with a AAA rating would be obligated to provide less collateral to secure a major credit exposure than one with an A rating. All derivative gains and losses between Zions Bank or Amegy and a single counterparty are netted to determine the net credit exposure and therefore the collateral required. We have no exposure to credit default swaps.
Another aspect of the Companys credit risk management strategy is to pursue the diversification of the loan portfolio. The Company maintains a diversified loan portfolio with some emphasis in real estate. As set forth in the following table, at June 30, 2009 no single loan category exceeded 25.5% of the Companys total loan portfolio.

1 | FDIC-supported assets represent assets acquired from the FDIC subject to loss sharing agreements and include expected reimbursements from the FDIC of approximately $81 million. |
The Company attempts to avoid the risk of an undue concentration of credits in a particular industry, trade group, property type, or with an individual customer or counterparty. The majority of the Companys business activity is with customers located within the geographical footprint of its banking subsidiaries.
Lending to finance land acquisition, development and construction is a core business for the Company. Declines in the availability of mortgage financing to buyers of newly constructed homes and commercial properties and continuing weakness in real estate markets are having an adverse impact on the operations of some of the Companys customers.
The assets acquired from the failed Alliance Bank and Great Basin Bank included nonperforming loans and other loans with characteristics indicative of a high credit risk profile, including substantial concentrations in California and Nevada, loans with homebuilders and other construction finance loans. Because most of these loans are covered under loss sharing agreements with the FDIC (FDIC-supported assets) for which the FDIC generally will assume 80% of the first $275 million of credit losses for the Alliance Bank loans and $40 million of credit losses for the Great Basin Bank loans and 95% of the credit losses in excess of $275 million for Alliance Bank loans and $40 million for Great Basin Bank loans, the Companys financial exposure to losses from these assets is substantially limited. To the extent actual losses exceed the Companys estimates at acquisition, the Companys financial risk would only be its share of those losses under the Loss Sharing Agreements. These FDIC-supported assets represent approximately 2.1% of the Companys total loan portfolio.

ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
The Companys level of credit quality continued to weaken during the second quarter of 2009. The deterioration in credit quality is mainly related to the weakness in development and construction activity in the Southwest that started in the latter half of 2007. Although not to the degree experienced in the Southwestern states, some signs of deterioration also surfaced in Utah/Idaho during the first quarter of 2008 and in the Texas market in the fourth quarter of 2008. Construction and land development loans in Nevada and Arizona remain the most troubled segments of the portfolio. The most meaningful declines in commercial real estate credit quality during the first half of 2009 were in Nevada, Texas, and Utah. The Company experienced increased criticized and classified loans in its commercial loan portfolio during the second quarter of 2009 in Utah, Texas, and Colorado and loan delinquencies were essentially unchanged throughout the loan portfolio. In light of continued weak economic conditions, it is not yet possible to forecast the timing of improvement in credit quality measures.
The Companys ability to obtain remargining or additional equity on loans from borrowers is partially a function of the stage of the downturn in each state, in our footprint, where the borrower resides. The Company has a greater ability to obtain remargining in Texas, Utah and Colorado because of where these states are in the earlier stages of the downturn.
The Company does not pursue subprime residential mortgage lending, including option ARM and negative amortization loans. It does have approximately $573 million of stated income with generally high FICO scores (a credit score developed by the Fair Isaac Corporation) at origination, including one-time close loans to finance the construction of a home, which convert into permanent jumbo mortgages. This portfolio began to show significant credit quality deterioration in the second half of 2008. At June 30, 2009, approximately $86 million of the stated income loans have low FICO scores reflective of the current economic environment.
A more comprehensive discussion of our credit risk management is contained in Zions Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Approximately 32% of the commercial term loans consist of mini-perm loans on which construction is complete and the project is either in the process of stabilization or has stabilized, and the owner is waiting to seek permanent financing given the current conditions in the financial markets. Mini-perm loans generally have maturities of 3 to 7 years. The remaining 68% are term loans with initial maturities generally of 15 to 20 years. Stabilization criteria differ by product and are dependent on cash flow created by lease-up for office, industrial and retail products and occupancy for retail and apartment products.
Approximately 31% of the commercial construction and land development portfolio is designated as acquisition and development. Most of these acquisition and development properties are tied to specific retail, apartment, office or other projects. Underwriting on commercial properties is primarily based on the economic viability of the project with heavy consideration given to the creditworthiness of the sponsor. The owners equity is always expected to be injected prior to bank advances. Re-margining requirements are often included in the loan agreement along with guarantees of the sponsor. Recognizing that debt is paid via cash flow, the projected economics of the project are primary in the underwriting because it determines the ultimate value of the property and the ability to service debt. Therefore, in most projects (with the exception of multi-family projects) we look for substantial pre-leasing in our underwriting and we generally require a minimum projected stabilized debt service ratio of 1.20.

Although residential construction and development deals with a different product type, many of the requirements previously mentioned, such as credit worthiness of the developer, up-front injection of the developers equity, re-margining requirements, and the viability of the project are also important in underwriting a residential development loan. Heavy consideration is given to market acceptance of the product, location, strength of the developer, and the ability of the developer to stay within budget. Progress inspections performed by qualified independent inspectors are routinely performed before disbursements are made. Loan agreements generally include limitations on the number of model homes and homes built on a spec basis, with preference given to pre-sold homes.
Real estate appraisals are ordered independently of the credit officer and the borrower, generally by the banks appraisal review function, which is staffed by certified appraisers. Appraisals are ordered from outside appraisers at the inception, renewal, or for CRE loans, upon the occurrence of any event causing a criticized or classified grade to be assigned to the credit. The frequency for obtaining updated appraisals for these adversely graded credits is increased when declining market conditions exist. Advance rates will vary based on the viability of the project and the creditworthiness of the sponsor, but corporate guidelines generally limit advances to 50-65% for raw land, 65-75% for land development, 65-75% for finished commercial lots, 75-80% for finished residential lots, 80% for pre-sold homes, 75-80% for models and spec homes, and 75-80% for commercial properties. Exceptions may be granted on a case-by-case basis.
Loan agreements require regular financial information on the project and the sponsor in addition to lease schedules, rent rolls, and on construction projects, independent progress inspection reports. The receipt of these schedules is closely monitored and calculations are made to determine adherence to the covenants set forth in the loan agreement. Additionally, the frequency of loan-by-loan reviews has been increased to a quarterly basis for all commercial and residential land acquisition, development, and construction loans at Zions Bank, California Bank & Trust, National Bank of Arizona, Nevada State Bank, and Vectra Bank.
Interest reserves are generally established as an expense item in the budget for a real estate construction or development loan. It has proven preferable for the borrower to put their total amount of available equity into the project at the inception of the construction, rather than holding enough of their available funds to pay the interest during the construction period. This enables the bank to maximize the amount of equity obtained and control the amount of money set aside to pay interest on the construction loan. The Companys practice is to monitor the construction, sales and/or leasing progress to determine whether or not the project remains viable. At any time during the life of the credit that the project is determined not to be viable, the bank has the ability to discontinue the use of the interest reserve and take appropriate action to protect its collateral position via negotiation and/or legal action as deemed appropriate. At June 30, 2009, Zions affiliates have 645 loans with an outstanding balance of $1.5 billion where available interest reserves amount to $150 million. In instances where projects have been determined nonviable, the interest reserves have been frozen.
We have not been involved to any meaningful extent with insurance arrangements, credit derivatives, or any other default agreements as a mitigation strategy for commercial real estate loans. However, we do make use of personal or other guarantees as risk mitigation strategies.

The Company stress tests its CRE loan portfolio on a quarterly basis. This testing is back tested and the results of the testing are reviewed quarterly with the rating agencies and banking regulators. The stress testing methodology includes a loan-by-loan Monte Carlo simulation, which is an approach that measures potential loss of principal and related revenues. The Monte Carlo simulation stresses the probability of default and loss given default for CRE loans based on a variety of factors including regional economic factors, loan grade, loan-to-value, collateral type, and geography.
Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming lending related assets include nonaccrual loans and other real estate owned. Loans are generally placed on nonaccrual status when the loan is 90 days or more past due as to principal or interest, unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. Consumer loans are placed on nonaccrual status at 90 days. Generally, closed-end non-real estate secured consumer loans are charged off prior to 120 days past due. Open-end consumer loans adequately secured by real estate are placed on nonaccrual status at 90 days. Open-end credit card consumer loans are charged off when they become 180 days past due. Nonaccrual loans also include nonaccrual restructured loans to provide a reduction or deferral of interest or principal payments. This generally occurs when the financial condition of a borrower deteriorates to the point that the borrower needs to be given temporary or permanent relief from the original contractual terms of the loan. Other real estate owned is acquired primarily through or in lieu of foreclosure on loans secured by real estate.

Total nonaccrual loans at June 30, 2009 increased $683 million from the balances at December 31, 2008, which included increases of $367 million for nonaccrual construction and land development loans and $180 million for commercial lending. Nonperforming assets are expected to increase further over the next several quarters. Nonperforming assets excluding FDIC-supported assets increased $275 million during the quarter compared to an increase of $510 million during the first quarter of 2009.
Included in nonaccrual loans are loans that we have determined to be impaired. 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 in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement, including scheduled interest payments. The amount of the impairment is measured based on the present value of expected cash flows, the observable fair value of the loan, or the fair value of the collateral securing the loan.
The Companys total recorded investment in impaired loans was $1,431 million at June 30, 2009, compared with $770 million at December 31, 2008 and $467 million at June 30, 2008. Estimated losses on impaired loans are included in the allowance for loan losses. At June 30, 2009, the allowance for loan losses included $86 million for impaired loans with a recorded investment of $382 million. At December 31, 2008, the allowance included $52 million for impaired loans with a $306 million recorded investment, and at June 30, 2008 the allowance included $35 million for impaired loans with a $164 million recorded investment.
The amount of accruing loans past due 90 days or more excluding FDIC-supported assets was $178 million at June 30, 2009 compared to $130 million at December 31, 2008 and $109 million at June 30, 2008.
In addition to the lending related nonperforming assets, the Company also has $165 million in carrying value of investments in debt securities that are on nonaccrual status at June 30, 2009.
Allowance and Reserve for Credit Losses
Allowance for Loan Losses In analyzing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, we utilize a comprehensive loan grading system to determine the risk potential in the portfolio and also consider the results of independent internal credit reviews. To determine the adequacy of the allowance, the Companys loan and lease portfolio is broken into segments based on loan type.
For commercial loans, we use historical loss experience factors by loan segment, adjusted for changes in trends and conditions, to help determine an indicated allowance for each portfolio segment. During the second quarter of 2009, the Company re-estimated certain of the loss reserve factors based on a newly updated migration analysis reflecting more recent loss experience. These factors are evaluated and updated using migration analysis techniques and other considerations based on the makeup of the specific segment. These other considerations include:
| volumes and trends of delinquencies; |
| levels of nonaccruals, repossessions and bankruptcies; |
| trends in criticized and classified loans; |
| expected losses on real estate secured loans; |
| new credit products and policies; |
| economic conditions; |
| concentrations of credit risk; and |
| experience and abilities of the Companys lending personnel. |

In addition to the segment evaluations, nonaccrual loans graded substandard or doubtful with an outstanding balance of $500 thousand or more are individually evaluated in accordance with SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, to determine the level of impairment and establish a specific reserve. A specific allowance is established for loans adversely graded below $500 thousand when it is determined that the risk associated with the loan differs significantly from the risk factor amounts established for its loan segment.
The allowance for consumer loans is determined using historically developed loss experience rates at which loans migrate from one delinquency level to the next higher level. Using average roll rates for the most recent twelve-month period and comparing projected losses to actual loss experience, the model estimates expected losses in dollars for the forecasted period. By refreshing the model with updated data, it is able to project losses for a new twelve-month period each month, segmenting the portfolio into nine product groupings with similar risk profiles. This methodology is an accepted industry practice, and the Company believes it has a sufficient volume of information to produce reliable projections.
As a final step to the evaluation process, we perform an additional review of the adequacy of the allowance based on the loan portfolio in its entirety. This enables us to mitigate the imprecision inherent in most estimates of expected credit losses. This review of the allowance includes our judgmental consideration of any adjustments necessary for subjective factors such as economic uncertainties and excessive concentration risks.
The Company has initiated a comprehensive review of its allowance for loan losses methodology with a view towards updating and conforming this methodology across all of its banking subsidiaries. The Company began implementing this updated methodology and expects that these changes will be phased in beginning in 2009. The newly updated migration analysis and resulting loss factors discussed above are a part of that phase-in.

The increased provision for the first six months of 2009 resulted from continued deterioration in commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loan portfolios, re-estimation of certain of the Companys loss reserve factors based on a newly updated migration analysis reflecting more recent loss experience, and to incorporate the possibility of a more protracted credit cycle.
Reserve for Unfunded Lending Commitments The Company also estimates a reserve for potential losses associated with off-balance sheet commitments and standby letters of credit. We determine the reserve for unfunded lending commitments using a process that is similar to the one we use for commercial lending and commercial real estate loans. Based on historical experience, we have developed experience-based loss factors that we apply to the Companys unfunded lending commitments to estimate the potential for loss in that portfolio. The reserve is included with other liabilities in the Companys consolidated balance sheet, with any related increases or decreases in the reserve included in noninterest expense in the statement of income.

Interest Rate and Market Risk Management
Interest rate and market risk are managed centrally. Interest rate risk is the potential for loss resulting from adverse changes in the level of interest rates on the Companys net interest income. Market risk is the potential for loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value of fixed income securities, equity securities, other earning assets and derivative financial instruments as a result of changes in interest rates or other factors. As a financial institution that engages in transactions involving an array of financial products, the Company is exposed to both interest rate risk and market risk.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is one of the most significant risks to which the Company is regularly exposed. In general, our goal in managing interest rate risk is to have the net interest margin increase slightly in a rising interest rate environment. We refer to this goal as being slightly asset-sensitive. This approach is based on our belief that in a rising interest rate environment, the market cost of equity, or implied rate at which future earnings are discounted, would also tend to rise.
We attempt to minimize the impact of changing interest rates on net interest income primarily through the use of interest rate swaps, and by avoiding large exposures to fixed rate interest-earning assets that have significant negative convexity. The prime lending rate and the LIBOR curves are the primary indices used for pricing the Companys loans. The interest rates paid on deposit accounts are set by individual banks so as to be competitive in each local market.
We monitor interest rate risk through the use of two complementary measurement methods: duration of equity and income simulation. In the duration of equity method, we measure the expected changes in the fair values of equity in response to changes in interest rates. The Companys policy is to maintain duration of equity between -3% to +7%. At the present time, management has deemed it appropriate to operate with negative duration greater than -3% due to the unusually low level of interest rates and the potential for future inflationary pressures to apply upward pressure on interest rates.
72
ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
In the income simulation method, we analyze the expected changes in income in response to changes in interest rates. For income simulation, Company policy requires that interest sensitive income from a static balance sheet be limited to a decline of no more than 10% during one year if rates were to immediately rise or fall in parallel by 200 basis points.
As of the dates indicated, the following table shows the Companys estimated range of duration of equity and percentage change in interest sensitive income, based on a static balance sheet, in the first year after the rate change if interest rates were to sustain an immediate parallel change of 200 basis points; the low and high results differ based on the assumed speed of repricing of administered-rate deposits (money market, interest-on-checking, and savings):

1 | In the event that a 200 basis point rate change cannot be achieved, the applicable rate changes are limited to lesser amounts such that interest rates cannot be less than zero. |
As discussed previously under the section Net Interest Income, Margin and Interest Rate Spreads, the Company believes that in the current quarter, the dynamic balance sheet changes with regard to changes in high balances of money market investments and changes in levels of nonperforming assets have tended to have a somewhat larger effect on the net interest spread and net interest margin than has the Companys interest rate risk position.
Market Risk Fixed Income
The Company engages in the underwriting and trading of municipal and corporate securities. This trading activity exposes the Company to a risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the prices of these fixed income securities held by the Company.
At June 30, 2009, the Company had $78.6 million of trading account assets and $51.1 million of securities sold, not yet purchased compared with $42.1 million and $51.7 million of trading assets and $35.7 million and $46.4 million of securities sold, not yet purchased at December 31, 2008 and June 30, 2008, respectively.
The Company is exposed to market risk through changes in fair value and other than temporary impairment of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities. The Company also is exposed to market risk for interest rate swaps used to hedge interest rate risk. Changes in fair value in available-for-sale securities and interest rate swaps are included in OCI each quarter. During the second quarter of 2009, the after-tax change in OCI attributable to held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities was $11.7 million, and the change attributable to interest rate swaps was $(39.1) million, for a net decrease to shareholders equity of $27.4 million. If any of the AFS securities or HTM securities transferred from AFS become other than temporarily impaired, any loss in OCI is reversed and the impairment is charged to operations. See Investment Securities Portfolio for additional information on other-than-temporary impairment.

Market Risk Equity Investments
Through its equity investment activities, the Company owns equity securities that are publicly traded and subject to fluctuations in their market prices or values. In addition, the Company owns equity securities in companies that are not publicly traded and that are accounted for under cost, fair value, equity, or full consolidation methods of accounting, depending upon the Companys ownership position and degree of involvement in influencing the investees affairs. In either case, the value of the Companys investment is subject to fluctuation. Since the fair value associated with these securities may fall below the Companys investment costs, the Company is exposed to the possibility of loss. These equity investments are approved, monitored and evaluated by the Companys Equity Investment Committee.
The Company also invests in prepublic venture capital companies through various venture funds. In addition to the program, Amegy has in place an alternative investments program. These investments are primarily directed towards equity buyout and mezzanine funds with a key strategy of deriving ancillary commercial banking business from the portfolio companies. Early stage venture capital funds are not part of the strategy since the underlying companies are typically not credit worthy.
The Company also, from time to time, either starts and funds businesses or makes significant investments in companies of strategic interest. These investments may result in either minority or majority ownership positions, and usually give the Parent or its subsidiaries board representation. These strategic investments generally are in companies that are financial services or financial technologies providers.
A more comprehensive discussion of the Companys interest rate and market risk management is contained in Zions Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Liquidity Risk Management
Liquidity risk is the possibility that the Companys cash flows may not be adequate to fund its ongoing operations and meet its commitments in a timely and cost-effective manner. Since liquidity risk is closely linked to both credit risk and market risk, many of the previously discussed risk control mechanisms also apply to the monitoring and management of liquidity risk. We manage the Companys liquidity to provide adequate funds to meet its anticipated financial and contractual obligations, including withdrawals by depositors, debt service requirements and lease obligations, as well as to fund customers needs for credit.
Liquidity is managed centrally for both the Parent and its subsidiary banks. The Parents cash requirements consist primarily of debt service, investment in and advances to subsidiaries, operating expenses, income taxes, and dividends to preferred and common shareholders, including the CPP preferred equity issued to the Treasury. The Parents cash needs are met through a combination of dividends from its subsidiaries, investment income, subsidiaries proportionate share of current income taxes, management and other fees, bank lines, equity contributed through the exercise of stock options, commercial paper, and long-term debt and equity issuances.

ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Most of the Companys subsidiary banks have seen reduced profitability or posted losses in recent quarters, and therefore are currently unable to reliably pay dividends. Also, earnings on the Parents investment portfolio have been reduced. Cash earnings from subsidiaries and investments currently do not cover the Parents interest and dividend payments, and the Company does not expect cash receipts from its subsidiaries and investments to cover those payments for the remainder of 2009. In addition, the Parent has had to increase its investment in several of its bank subsidiaries in order to maintain their well capitalized status. The Company has reduced the dividend on its common stock in several stages to $.01 per share per quarter, in order to conserve both capital and cash. Federal Reserve Board Supervisory Letter SR 09-4, dated February 24, 2009, reiterates and expands previous guidance regarding the payment of common dividends and dividends on more senior capital instruments in times of stress on earnings and capital ratios.
General financial market and economic conditions, both of which have been highly stressed since mid-2008 or earlier, as well as the Companys debt ratings, have adversely impacted the Companys access to external financing. One rating agency, Moodys, has downgraded the Companys senior debt rating to B2, while Standard & Poors, Fitch and DBRS all rate the Companys senior debt at a low investment grade. All of the agencies have indicated that continued high loan losses and/or losses related to the Companys investment portfolio of CDOs could erode capital levels and cause further downgrades in the Companys debt ratings. Additional information regarding rating actions may be found below.
Since September, 2008, the primary sources of cash available to the Parent in the capital markets have been (1) unsecured 1-2 year senior notes issued by the Parent, (2) issuance of new shares of common stock, and (3) the FDICs TLGP debt program, under which the Company issued its maximum allowed $254.9 million on January 21, 2009. Additional information regarding financing actions may be found below. In the summer of 2009 some other financing markets began to reopen for regional and larger banking companies, but there can be no assurance that the Company will have access to these markets at any given time.

1 | Zions Municipal Funding, Inc. is a wholly-owned nonoperating subsidiary whose sole purpose is to hold a portfolio of municipal bonds, loans and leases. |
Operating cash flows, while normally constituting a funding source for the Company, are not large enough to provide funding in the amounts that fulfill the needs of the Parent and its subsidiary banks. For the first six months of 2009, operations contributed $366 million toward these needs. As a result, the Company utilizes other sources at its disposal to manage its liquidity needs.
At June 30, 2009, the Parent also has secured a line of credit of $100 million with one of its subsidiary banks. No amounts were outstanding under this line at June 30, 2009. Interest on this line is at a variable rate based on specified indices. Actual amounts that may be borrowed at any given time are based on determined collateral requirements.

On April 20, 2009, Moodys downgraded its ratings for the Parent on senior unsecured debt to B2, on subordinated debt to B3, and on short-term/commercial paper to NP; also its outlook was Negative. Additionally, on April 22, 2009, S&P downgraded its ratings for the Parent on long-term issuer/senior unsecured debt to BBB-, on subordinated debt to BB+, and on short-term/commercial paper to A-3; also its outlook was Negative.

On June 30, 2009, Fitch downgraded its ratings for the Parent on long-term issuer/senior unsecured debt to BBB, on subordinated debt to BBB-, and on short-term/commercial paper to F2; also its outlook was Negative.
On July 22, 2009, Dominion downgraded the ratings of Zions and its related entities, including its Issuer and Senior debt rating to BBB (low) from BBB. It also downgraded Zions' banking subsidiaries' Deposits and Senior debt ratings to BBB from BBB (high). With the exception of its AAA rated FDIC-guaranteed debt, which remains on Stable trend, all ratings were placed on Negative trend.
On January 21, 2009, we issued $254.9 million of senior floating rate notes due June 21, 2012 at a coupon rate of three-month LIBOR plus 37 basis points. The debt is guaranteed under the FDICs TLGP that became effective on November 21, 2008.
The Company repaid senior medium-term notes of $67 million during the first quarter of 2009 and $137 million during the second quarter of 2009. The Company issued $36 million of senior medium term notes during the second quarter of 2009.
In the second quarter the Company received $123.7 million of cash net of expense from the issuance of common stock. We used $46.4 million of cash to tender for $100.5 million par value of Series A preferred stock.
The subsidiary banks primary source of funding is their core deposits, consisting of demand, savings and money market deposits, time deposits under $100,000 and foreign deposits. At June 30, 2009, these core deposits, excluding brokered deposits, in aggregate, constituted 84.1% of consolidated deposits, compared with 81.9% of consolidated deposits at December 31, 2008. The Company has also obtained brokered deposits to serve as an additional source of liquidity for the Company. At June 30, 2009, total brokered deposits were $2.9 billion, down from $3.3 billion at December 31, 2008 and up from $124 million at June 30, 2008. For the first six months of 2009, increases in deposits resulted in net cash inflows of $76 million.
On October 3, 2008, the FDIC increased deposit insurance to $250,000 through December 31, 2009 and in May 2009 extended the increased insurance coverage through December 31, 2013. The FDIC has also implemented a program to provide full deposit insurance coverage for noninterest-bearing transaction deposit accounts through December 31, 2009, unless insured banks elected to opt out of the program. The Company did not opt out of this program.
The Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) system is also a significant source of liquidity for each of the Companys subsidiary banks. Zions Bank and TCBW are members of the FHLB of Seattle. CB&T, NSB, and NBA are members of the FHLB of San Francisco. Vectra is a member of the FHLB of Topeka and Amegy Bank is a member of the FHLB of Dallas. The FHLB allows member banks to borrow against their eligible loans to satisfy liquidity requirements. For the first six months of 2009, the activity in short-term FHLB borrowings resulted in a net cash inflow of approximately $10 million. The subsidiary banks are required to invest in FHLB stock to maintain their borrowing capacity. The Company is aware of recent news reports and FHLB member bank press releases regarding the financial strength of the FHLB system.
77
ZIONS BANCORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
The Company is actively monitoring its ability to borrow from the FHLB. At June 30, 2009, the subsidiary banks total investment in FHLB stock was $123 million.
The Federal Reserve Board has a temporary program to make 28-day loans to banks in the United States and to foreign banks through foreign central banks. These loans are made using an auction process. The Companys banking subsidiaries Zions Bank, CB&T, and Amegy are currently participating in this program and may continue to do so as long as money can be borrowed at an attractive rate. Amounts that can be borrowed are based upon the amount of collateral pledged to the Federal Reserve Bank. Borrowings outstanding under this program were $200 million at March 31, 2009 and $1.8 billion at December 31, 2008. The $200 million outstanding at March 31, 2009 matured and was repaid on April 24, 2009 and no amounts were outstanding at June 30, 2009.
At June 30, 2009, the amount available for additional FHLB and Federal Reserve borrowings was approximately $13.7 billion. An additional $1.8 billion could be borrowed upon the pledging of additional available collateral.
Zions Bank has in prior years used asset securitizations to sell loans and provide a flexible alternative source of funding. As a QSPE securities conduit sponsored by Zions Bank, Lockhart has purchased and held credit-enhanced securitized assets resulting from certain small business loan securitizations. During the first six months of 2009 Zions Bank purchased $678 million of securities from Lockhart at book value under the terms of a liquidity facility Zions Bank provided to Lockhart. During the second quarter of 2009, Lockhart was consolidated onto the books of Zions Bank as a result of Zions Bank holding of over 90% of Lockharts ABCP. See Consolidation of Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement for information about Lockhart and the Liquidity Agreement.
The Companys investment activities can provide or use cash. For the first six months of 2009, investment securities activities resulted in an increase in investment securities holdings primarily due to Zions Bank purchasing securities from Lockhart under the terms of the Liquidity Agreement and a net decrease of cash in the amount of $666 million.
Maturing balances in the various loan portfolios also provide additional flexibility in managing cash flows. In most cases, loan growth has resulted in net cash outflows from a funding standpoint, however, for the first six months of 2009, organic loan activity resulted in a net cash inflow of $512 million.
A more comprehensive discussion of our liquidity management is contained in Zions Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Operational Risk Management
Operational risk is the potential for unexpected losses attributable to human error, systems failures, fraud, or inadequate internal controls and procedures. In its ongoing efforts to identify and manage operational risk, the Company has created a Corporate Risk Management Department whose responsibility is to help Company management identify and assess key risks and monitor the key internal controls and processes that the Company has in place to mitigate operational risk. We have documented controls and the Control Self Assessment related to financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991.
To manage and minimize its operating risk, the Company has in place transactional documentation requirements, systems and procedures to monitor transactions and positions, regulatory compliance reviews, and periodic reviews by the Companys internal audit and credit examination departments. In addition, reconciliation procedures have been established to ensure that data processing systems consistently and accurately capture critical data. Further, we maintain contingency plans and systems for operations support in the event of natural or other disasters. Efforts are underway to improve the Companys oversight of operational risk, including enhancement of risk-control self assessments and of antifraud measures.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
We believe that a strong capital position is vital to continued profitability and to promoting depositor and investor confidence.
During the second quarter of 2009, the Company took capital actions that improved the capital ratios of the Company. The Company announced a plan to issue $250 million of common stock over two to three quarters in 2009. On June 1, 2009, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement (the Equity Distribution Agreement) with Goldman, Sachs & Co. (Goldman Sachs), pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell through or to Goldman Sachs, from time to time, shares of the Companys common stock, with an aggregate sales price of up to $250 million. Sales of common stock are made by means of ordinary brokers transactions on the Nasdaq Global Select Market or otherwise at market prices or to Goldman Sachs for resale at a price to be agreed upon by the Company and Goldman Sachs. During the period from June 1 through June 30, 2009, the Company issued approximately $126.5 million of new common stock consisting of 9,177,658 shares at an average share price of $13.79 per share under the Equity Distribution Agreement. Net of issuance costs and fees, including $2.5 million in commissions paid to Goldman Sachs, these sales added $123.7 million to common equity.
Additionally, the Company purchased 4,020,435 depositary shares (each share representing a 1/40th ownership interest in a share of preferred stock) at a price of $11.50 per depositary share, or an aggregate amount of $46.4 million including accrued dividends. At a $25 per depositary share liquidation preference, the purchase reduced the $240 million carrying value of the Series A preferred stock by approximately $100.5 million. Net of related costs, the redemption resulted in a $52.4 million increase to retained earnings. Finally, the Company recognized $201.2 million after-tax directly in equity for the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature related to the subordinated debt modification discussed below.
Also, as disclosed previously, the Company modified $1.2 billion of subordinated notes to permit conversion on a par for par basis into either the Companys Series A or Series C preferred stock. Net of issuance costs and debt discount on the previous debt, the pretax gain recognized in earnings from this subordinated debt modification was approximately $493.7 million.

Total controlling interest shareholders equity on June 30, 2009 was $5,731 million compared to $6,502 million at December 31, 2008, and $5,274 million at June 30, 2008. The Companys capital ratios were as follows:

The Parent and its subsidiary banks are required to maintain adequate levels of capital as measured by several regulatory capital ratios. As of June 30, 2009, the Company and each of its subsidiary banks exceeded the well capitalized guidelines under regulatory standards.
The decrease in total controlling interest shareholders equity from December 31, 2008 is primarily due to net losses recognized during the first six months of 2009 including non-cash expenses resulting from goodwill impairment and the negative impact of increased after tax unrealized losses of $132 million on investment securities and derivatives included in OCI and a preferred stock redemption offset by second quarter capital raising actions including issuance of common stock and a subordinated debt modification gain. The increase in total controlling interest shareholders equity from June 30, 2008 is primarily due to several capital raising actions taken during in 2009 as described above and capital raising actions taken during 2008 which included the Company receiving $1.4 billion from the issuance of nonvoting senior preferred stock to the U.S. Department of Treasury under the Treasurys CPP in November 2008 and the Company issuing $250 million of new common stock in September 2008.
At June 30, 2009, regulatory Tier 1 risk-based capital and total risk-based capital were $5,408 million and $6,879 million compared to $5,269 million and $7,386 million at December 31, 2008, and $3,685 million and $5,732 million at June 30, 2008, respectively. The significant decline in the Companys regulatory Tier 1 risk-based capital and total risk-based capital ratios at June 30, 2009 from December 31, 2008 is primarily due to the previously discussed investment securities ratings downgrades which increased total risk weighted assets resulting in a decrease in the ratios.
Dividends of $0.04 per common share were paid in the second quarter of 2009 and $0.43 per common share were paid in the second quarter of 2008. For the three months ended June 30, 2009, the Company paid $4.6 million in dividends on common stock compared to $46.2 million in the same period of 2008. At its July 2009 meeting, the Companys Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.01 per share of common stock. The dividend is payable August 26, 2009 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 12, 2009. Under the terms of the CPP, the Company may not increase the dividend on its common stock above $0.32 per share per quarter during the period the senior preferred shares are outstanding without adversely impacting the Companys interest in the program or without permission from the U.S. Department of the Treasury.
During the six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company recorded $51.7 million for preferred dividends compared to $4.9 million during the comparable period in 2008. During the second quarter of 2009, the Company recorded $25.4 million for preferred dividends compared to $2.5 million during the comparable period in 2008.

GAAP to NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION
This document presents computations of equity ratios excluding intangible assets such as goodwill and core deposits and other intangibles (hereinafter collectively referred to as tangible equity). The goodwill and core deposits and other intangibles are included in financial results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Zions believes the exclusion of these intangible assets from the computation of the tangible common equity ratio and the tangible equity ratio provides a meaningful base for period-to-period and company-to-company comparisons, which management believes will assist investors in analyzing the operating results and capital of the Company and predicting future performance. These non-GAAP financial ratio measures are also used by management to assess the performance of Zions business, because management does not consider intangible assets to be relevant to the overall equity capital position. Management and the Board of Directors utilize these non-GAAP financial measures for the following purposes:
| Evaluation of bank reporting segment performance |
| Presentations of Company performance to investors |
Zions believes that presenting these non-GAAP financial measures will permit investors to assess the performance of the Company on the same basis as that applied by management and the Board of Directors.
Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by stakeholders in the evaluation of a company, they have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of results as reported under GAAP. In particular, a measure of equity that excludes these intangible assets does not represent the amount of total shareholders equity.

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
Interest rate and market risks are among the most significant risks regularly undertaken by the Company, and they are closely monitored as previously discussed. A discussion regarding the Companys management of interest rate and market risk is included in the section entitled Interest Rate and Market Risk Management in this Form 10-Q.
ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Companys reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
In connection with the presentation of the Form 10-Q, management, under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009. In this original evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2009.
In connection with the revision to the financial statements as described in the Explanatory Note and Items 1 and 2 of this Amendment No. 1, management reevaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009. In connection therewith, management identified a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. Management determined that the Company did not maintain effective controls over the process utilized to interpret the applicable accounting literature for computing and allocating the amount attributable to the beneficial conversion feature related to the subordinated debt modification. Management believes this control deficiency resulted in a misstatement of the net loss applicable to common shareholders and shareholders equity. As a result of this material weakness, management concluded that the Companys disclosure controls were not effective as of June 30, 2009.
In light of the material weakness described above, management revised its consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q/A as discussed previously to ensure that the computation and allocation of the beneficial conversion feature related to the debt modification was in conformity with the applicable accounting guidance. Management also believes that the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q/A were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in all material respects.
82
While management had identified the appropriate accounting guidance and recognized that the terms of the debt modification included a beneficial conversion feature, management misinterpreted how to compute and allocate the amount attributable to this feature. Management does not routinely execute debt modifications with terms similar to this transaction and management believes that as a result of the process to reassess the accounting treatment, this material weakness has been remediated. Management will continue to assess the actions necessary to maintain effective controls over the process utilized to evaluate the accounting for complex transactions such as debt modifications.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Other than as set forth in this Amendment No. 1, there have been no changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2009, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
ITEM 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
The Company is a defendant in various legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business. The Company does not believe that the outcome of any such proceedings will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, operations, or liquidity.
ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS |
The Company believes there have been no significant changes in risk factors compared to the factors identified in Zions Bancorporations Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008; however, this filing contains updated disclosures related to significant risk factors discussed in Consolidation of Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement, Credit Risk Management, Market Risk Fixed Income, and Liquidity Risk Management. Further, restrictions on executive compensation in the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act and the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (for which the Treasury published implementing regulations during the second quarter of 2009) may adversely impact the Companys ability to recruit and retain senior executive talent.
