History

edit

The bank was founded on November 23, 1998.[1]

In 2008, the bank had a 3.38% market share in East Tennessee.[3]

In October 2011, the bank entered into a consent order with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) and agreed to reduce its commercial property loans.[4]

In March 2012, Dwight Grizzell resigned as president and chief executive officer of the bank. In April 2012, the bank stated in a regulatory filing that there are matters that "give rise to substantial doubt" about the ability of the company to continue as a going concern.[5]

In October 2012, James Friddell resigned as chief executive officer of the bank after only 6 months in the position.[6]

On June 7, 2013, as a result of bank failure, the bank was closed by the OCC and put into receivership, with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation as receiver. Its branches were acquired by First Tennessee.[2]
