Frank,

Below is the update on the debt securities purchase from earlier this year I told you about. Rebecca in Treasury can provide you with any documents that you require.

1. Security ABC - Purchased earlier this year, bonds for ABC mature in 5 years. Twenty-five bonds of ABC Company were purchased at a face amount of $4,000 per bond. Our intent is for these to be held to maturity.

Interoffice Memo

From: Frank Peterson, Sr. Manager
Date: January 7, Year 9
Re: Investment Security Balances

Robyn,

You will need the following for calculating the year-end balances for our various investment securities:

1. Security DEF was purchased in Year 6. One of the debt securities that is intended to be sold in the near term and has been classified as a trading security.
2. Security JKL was purchased in Year 6. A debt instrument that is expected to be sold within 1 year from the balance sheet date but not in the near term. These securities were not classified as trading or held to maturity.

I have also included memos from our CFO, Bruce Nye, that have additional information you will need on the purchases and sales in Year 7. Let me know if you have any questions.

Frank,

Rebecca in Treasury will be sending you copies of all the documents in respect to the sale of GHI security in the next couple of days.

1. Security GHI - Security GHI was sold on May 9, Year 8, for $175,000. The securities were originally purchased on January 1, Year 6. No additional costs were associated with the sale except for the cost basis of the securities. We have classified this security as available for sale. No credit losses were ever recognized for these securities.
