We're thrilled to have them today. The Company's been attending the conference, as many of you probably know, for a number of years and we're thrilled to have them back. They've been in existence for over ### years. They're based in Northeast Ohio. They currently have over ### branches throughout both Ohio and Pennsylvania. A couple of noteworthy items for all of you. Firstly, the Company recently did repay the TARP funds they received. It's definitely in the minority there; and a good thing, obviously. And they also -- the Company, for everybody should be aware that they maintain a TCE ratio of #.#%, which is clearly above a number of their peers. So with that, we're pleased to have Paul Greig here, the Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. Paul? Paul Greig - FirstMerit - Chairman, President, CEO Thanks, Chris. Good morning.

FirstMerit is an $## billion in asset bank, holding Company headquartered in Akron, Ohio. Admittedly, Akron is a challenging market from an economic standpoint, but I think it's important to note that new management has improved the credit profile of the Company. We think it's one of the stronger balance sheets relative to its peers. And recently FirstMerit has put together a string of pretty solid quarters. Here today for the Company is Paul Greig, CEO. We also have Mark Duhamel, Treasurer, and Tom O'Malley from Investor Relations. With that, I will turn it over to Paul. ... 04 Mar 2009 01:07:00 ESTFirstMerit54.0000FinalFirstMerit at Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc.
