Intermountain Community Bancorp (IMCB)

Intermountain Community Bancorp is a financial holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. The Company was formed as Panhandle Bancorp in October 1997 under the laws of the State of Idaho in connection with a holding company reorganization of Panhandle State Bank (the "Bank") that was approved by the shareholders on November 19, 1997 and became effective on January 27, 1998. In June 2000, Panhandle Bancorp changed its name to Intermountain Community Bancorp.

Panhandle State Bank, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, was first opened in 1981 to serve the local banking needs of Bonner County, Idaho. Panhandle State Bank is regulated by the Idaho Department of Finance ("Department"), the State of Washington Department of Financial Institutions, the Oregon Division of Finance and Corporate Securities and by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), its primary federal regulator and the insurer of its deposits.

Since opening in 1981, the Bank has continued to grow by opening additional branch offices throughout Idaho. During 1999, the Bank opened its first branch under the name of Intermountain Community Bank, a division of Panhandle State Bank, in Payette, Idaho. Over the next four years, the Bank opened branches in Weiser, Coeur d'Alene, Nampa, Rathdrum, Caldwell and Post Falls, Idaho. In January 2003, the Bank acquired a branch office from Household Bank F.S.B. located in Ontario, Oregon, its first and only out-of-state branch at the time. Also, in 2003, the Company changed the names of the Coeur d'Alene, Post Falls, and Rathdrum branches from Intermountain Community Bank to Panhandle State Bank, because the Panhandle State Bank name had more brand recognition in the northern part of the state. In November 2004, Intermountain acquired Snake River Bancorp, Inc. ("Snake River") and its subsidiary bank, Magic Valley Bank, which consisted of three branches. The branches are located in south central Idaho in the cities of Twin Falls, Gooding and Jerome. In June 2005, the Company opened a branch in Spokane Valley, Washington. In August 2005, the Company closed its Jerome, Idaho branch and consolidated the branch operations into its Twin Falls branch.
