HAMPTON ROADS BANKSHARES INC | 2013 | FY | 3


Bank-Owned Life Insurance.  The Company purchased split-dollar life insurance policies on the lives of a limited number of officers, some of whom are no longer employees. The policies are recorded as an asset at the cash surrender value of the policies.  Increases or decreases in the cash surrender value, other than proceeds from death benefits, are recorded as income from bank-owned life insurance in noninterest income.  Proceeds from death benefits first reduce the cash surrender value attributable to the individual policy and then any additional proceeds are recorded as noninterest income.  The Company has accrued the present value of the expected cost of maintaining these policies over the expected life of the officers/employees.
