Market Area

Our primary market area is the Puget Sound region in Western Washington. We are headquartered in Seattle and have five retail offices. Three of our offices are located within the Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue Metropolitan Statistical Area, which consists of King, Pierce and Snohomish counties. Based on the most recent branch deposit data provided by the FDIC, our share of deposits in those counties was 0.2%, 0.4% and 0.3%, respectively. Our fourth and fifth offices, located in Clallam County, have 9.3% of the deposits in that market.

Our market area includes a diverse population of management, professional and sales personnel, office employees, manufacturing and transportation workers, service industry workers and government employees, as well as retired and self-employed individuals. The population has a skilled work force with a wide range of education levels and ethnic backgrounds. Major employment sectors include information and communications technology, financial services, manufacturing, maritime, biotechnology, education, health and social services, retail trades, transportation and professional services. The largest employers headquartered in our market area include the University of Washington, the Port of Seattle, Boeing, Microsoft, Costco, Amazon.com, Starbucks, Paccar and Weyerhaeuser.

The economy of this region struggled during 2009 and 2010. However, median household income and per capita income for our market area are above the state and national averages. For the month of December 2010, the Seattle MSA reported an unemployment rate of 8.7%, as compared to the national average of 9.4%, according to the latest available information. A reduction in the economic growth in our market area may have an adverse impact on the level of our mortgage, construction and commercial lending as well as our ability to gather deposits.

Home prices have also continued to decline over the past year. According to Case-Shiller, home prices in the Seattle MSA have decreased by 6.0% between December 2009 and December 2010. This compares unfavorably to the national average decrease of 2.4%. In recent months, the rate of price depreciation continues to outpace the national average as reported by the Case-Shiller month to month decrease of 2.0% between November and December 2010 versus only 1.0% nationally.

___________________________________________

(1) Includes demand loans, loans having no stated maturity, overdraft loans and loans held for sale.

Lending Authority. The President/CEO may approve unsecured loans up to $500,000 and all types of secured loans up to $1.0 million. The EVP/Chief Credit Officer may approve secured loans up to $500,000. The SVP/Lending also may approve secured consumer loans and residential mortgage and construction and development loans (excluding commercial loans) up to $500,000. The SVP/Lending, EVP/Chief Credit Officer each may approve unsecured loans up to $250,000. Any loans over the President/CEO’s lending authority or loans otherwise outside our general underwriting guidelines must be approved by the Board Loan Committee.

Largest Borrowing Relationships. At December 31, 2010, the maximum amount under federal law that we could lend to any one borrower and the borrower’s related entities was approximately $4.6 million. Of our five largest borrowing relationships, three of them are primarily business relationships and two relationships have credit extended to both the individual borrower and their businesses. Our five largest relationships totaled $16.9 million in the aggregate, or 5.6% of our $299.7 million gross loan portfolio, at December 31, 2010. The largest relationship consists of $3.7 million in loans to a business collateralized by commercial real estate and multi-family housing. The next four largest lending relationships at December 31, 2010, were: $3.5 million in loans to an individual and his business, which is collateralized by residential and agricultural property; $3.4 million in loans to a businesses collateralized by commercial real estate; $3.2 million in loans to an individual and business collateralized by commercial real estate; and $3.1 million to an individual and his business collateralized by commercial real estate. All of these loans were current as of December 31, 2010. At December 31, 2010, we had no other lending relationships that exceeded $3.0 million.

One- to Four-Family Real Estate Lending. We originate loans secured by first mortgages on one- to-four family residences primarily located in our geographic lending area. We originate one- to four-family residential mortgage loans primarily through referrals from real estate agents, builders and from existing customers. Walk-in customers to our branches are another important source of loan origination for us.

A portion of the one- to four-family loans we originate are retained in our portfolio and others are sold into the secondary market, with servicing retained for continued customer contact and relationship building. This mortgage banking element of our residential lending business allows us to originate more loans with the same funds by reinvesting sales proceeds in more residential mortgage loans. The sale of mortgage loans reduces our interest rate risk, provides a stream of servicing income that improves earnings, enhances liquidity and enables us to originate more loans at our current capital level than if we held them in portfolio. We currently sell a portion of our residential mortgage loans, including conforming fixed-rate loans, on a servicing retained basis. See “- Loan

Originations, Purchases, Sales, Repayments and Servicing.” At December 31, 2010, one- to four-family residential mortgage loans (including loans held for sale) totaled $99.2 million, or 33.1%, of our gross loan portfolio.

We generally underwrite our one- to-four family loans based on the applicant’s employment and credit history and the appraised value of the subject property. We generally lend up to 90% of the lesser of the appraised value or purchase price for one- to four-family first mortgage loans, and up to 80% for non-owner occupied first mortgage loans. For first mortgage loans with a loan-to-value ratio in excess of 90%, we generally require private mortgage insurance in order to reduce our exposure. Properties securing our one- to four-family loans are generally appraised by independent fee appraisers who are selected in accordance with criteria approved by the Board of Directors. We require our borrowers to obtain title and hazard insurance, and flood insurance, if necessary.

We currently originate one- to four-family mortgage loans with either fixed or adjustable rates. Our pricing strategy for mortgage loans includes establishing interest rates that are competitive with other local financial institutions and consistent with our internal asset and liability management objectives. During the year ended December 31, 2010, we originated $73.4 million of one- to four-family fixed-rate mortgage loans and $483,000 of one- to four-family adjustable rate mortgage (ARM) loans.

Fixed-rate loans secured by one- to four-family residences have contractual maturities of up to 30 years and are generally fully amortizing, with payments due monthly. Currently, ARM loans are offered with annual adjustments and life-time rate caps that vary based on the product, generally with a maximum annual rate change of 2.0% and a maximum overall rate change of 6.0%. We generally use the rate on one-year Treasury Bills to reprice our ARM loans. As a consequence of using caps, the interest rates on these loans may not be as rate sensitive as our cost of funds.

ARM loans generally pose different credit risks than fixed-rate loans, primarily because as interest rates rise, the borrower’s payment rises, which increases the potential for default. The majority of these loans have been originated within the past several years, when rates were historically low. We have offered some teaser rates for the initial loan rate on our ARM loans but not at significant discounts from our prevailing rates. See “- Asset Quality – Non-performing Assets” and “– Classified Assets.”

Most of our loans are written using generally accepted underwriting guidelines, and are readily saleable to Fannie Mae or other private investors. Our real estate loans generally contain a “due on sale” clause allowing us to declare the unpaid principal balance due and payable upon the sale of the security property. The average size of our one- to four-family residential loans was approximately $177,000 at December 31, 2010.

Home Equity Lending. We originate home equity loans that consist of fixed-rate loans and variable-rate lines of credit. We originate home equity lines of credit in amounts of up to 80% of the value of the collateral, minus any senior liens on the property. Home equity lines of credit are originated for up to $250,000 with an adjustable rate of interest, based on the one-year Treasury Bill rate plus a margin. Home equity lines of credit generally have up to a twelve-year draw period, during which time the funds may be paid down and redrawn up to the committed amount. Once the draw period has lapsed, the payment is amortized over a twelve-year period based on the loan balance at that time. We charge a $50 annual fee on each outstanding home equity line of credit and require monthly interest-only payments on the entire drawn amount. At December 31, 2010, home equity lines of credit totaled $34.5 million, or 11.49% of our gross loan portfolio. At December 31, 2010, unfunded commitments on these lines of credit totaled $17.9 million.

Our fixed-rate home equity loans are originated in amounts, together with the amount of the existing first mortgage, of up to 90% of the appraised value of the subject property. These loans may have terms of up to 20 years and are fully amortizing. At December 31, 2010, fixed-rate home equity loans totaled $10.3 million, or 3.42% of our gross loan portfolio.

Commercial Real Estate Lending. We offer a variety of commercial real estate loans. Most of these loans are secured by commercial income producing properties, including retail centers, multi-family apartment buildings, warehouses, and office buildings located in our market areas. At December 31, 2010, commercial real estate loans totaled $97.2 million, or 32.4% of our gross loan portfolio, compared to $72.0 million, or 24.6% of our gross loan portfolio at December 31, 2009.

Our loans secured by commercial real estate are generally originated with a variable interest rate, fixed for a five-year term and a 20- to 25-year amortization period. At the end of the initial five-year term, there is a balloon payment or the loan re-prices based on an independent index plus a margin of 1% to 4% for another five years. Loan-to-value ratios on our commercial real estate loans typically do not exceed 80% of the lower of cost or appraised value of the property securing the loan at origination.

Loans secured by commercial real estate are generally underwritten based on the net operating income of the property and the financial strength of the borrower. The net operating income, which is the income derived from the operation of the property less all operating expenses, must be sufficient to cover the payments related to the outstanding debt plus an additional coverage requirement. We generally require at minimum the personal guaranty of the borrower and an assignment of rents or leases in order to be assured that the cash flow from the project will be used to repay the debt. Appraisals on properties securing commercial real estate loans are performed by independent state certified or licensed fee appraisers and approved by the Board Loan Committee. In order to monitor the adequacy of cash flows on income-producing properties, the borrower is required to provide at minimum annual financial information.

Loans secured by commercial real estate properties generally involve a greater degree of credit risk than one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. These loans typically involve larger balances to single borrowers or groups of related borrowers. Because payments on loans secured by commercial and multi-family real estate properties are often dependent on the successful operation or management of the properties, repayment of these loans may be subject to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy. If the cash flow from the project is reduced, or if leases are not obtained or renewed, the borrower’s ability to repay the loan may be impaired. Our largest single commercial real estate loan at December 31, 2010, totaled $3.0 million to a real estate holding company and collateralized by commercial properties. At December 31, 2010, this loan was performing in accordance with the terms of the notes.

Construction or Development Lending. We originate construction loans secured by single-family residences and commercial real estate. We also originate loans secured by tracts of land for development. At December 31, 2010, our construction and development loans totaled $12.5 million, or 4.2% of our gross loan portfolio.

Construction loans to individuals and contractors for the construction and acquisition of personal residences totaled $3.4 million, or 17.8% of our construction and development portfolio. At December 31, 2010, the portion of these construction loans not advanced totaled $1.6 million.

Our residential construction loans generally provide for the payment of interest only during the construction phase, which is typically up to nine months. At the end of the construction phase, the construction loan generally either converts to a longer term mortgage loan or is paid off through a permanent loan from another lender. Residential construction loans are made up to the lesser of a maximum loan-to-value ratio of 100% of cost or 80% of appraised value at completion. At December 31, 2010, our largest residential construction mortgage loan commitment was for $1.6 million; $1.4 million of which had been disbursed. This loan was performing according to its terms. The average outstanding residential construction loan balance was approximately $309,000 at December 31, 2010.

Before making a commitment to fund a residential construction loan, we require an appraisal of the subject property by an independent licensed appraiser. Loan proceeds are disbursed after inspection based on the percentage of completion method. We also independently review and inspect each project before disbursement of funds during the term of the construction loan.

We make development loans to builders or residential lot developers. These loans, like commercial construction loans, involve a higher degree of credit risk than residential construction loans. At December 31, 2010, we had a total of $3.8 million in development loans to builders and residential lot developers. Our largest development loan is a $1.6 million loan, which is graded as substandard as of December 31, 2010. These land loans also involve additional risks because the loan amount is made based on the projected value of the lots after construction. We make these loans for up to 75% of the estimated value for up to two years. We require these loans to be paid on an accelerated basis as the lots are sold, so that we are repaid before all the lots are sold.

We offer commercial real estate construction loans for small retail properties. These loans are underwritten with terms similar to our permanent commercial real estate loans with special construction financing for up to 12 months under terms similar to our residential construction loans. We had $975,000 in construction loans secured by commercial real estate at December 31, 2010.

Construction financing is generally considered to involve a higher degree of credit risk than longer-term financing on improved, owner-occupied real estate. Risk of loss on a construction loan depends largely upon the accuracy of the initial estimate of the value of the property at completion of construction compared to the estimated cost (including interest) of construction and other assumptions. If the estimate of construction costs is inaccurate, we may be required to advance funds beyond the amount originally committed in order to protect the value of the property. Additionally, if the estimate of value is inaccurate, we may be confronted with a project that, when completed, has a value that is insufficient to generate full payment.

Consumer Lending. We offer a variety of secured consumer loans, including new and used manufactured homes, floating homes, automobiles, boats and recreational vehicle loans, and loans secured by savings deposits. We also offer unsecured consumer loans. We originate our consumer loans primarily in our geographic lending areas.

We originate new and used manufactured home loans. The yields on these loans are higher than that on our other residential lending products and the portfolio has performed reasonably well with an acceptable level of risk and loss in exchange for the higher yield. Our weighted average yield on manufactured home loans at December 31, 2010 was 8.4%, compared to 5.4% for one- to four-family residential mortgages, excluding loans held for sale. At December 31, 2010, these loans totaled $20.0 million, or 62.3% of our consumer loans and 6.7% of our total loan portfolio. For used manufactured homes, loans are generally made for up to 90% of the lesser of the appraised value or purchase price up to $200,000, and with terms typically up to 20 years. On new manufactured homes, loans are generally made for up to 80% of the lesser of the appraised value or purchase price up to $200,000, and with terms typically up to 20 years. We generally charge a 1% fee at origination. All our manufactured home loans are made on a direct basis. We underwrite these loans based on our review of creditworthiness of the borrower, including credit scores, and the value of the collateral, for which we perfect a security interest under Washington law.

Manufactured home loans are higher risk than loans secured by residential real property, though this risk is reduced if the owner also owns the land on which the home is located. A small portion of our manufactured home loans involve properties on which we also have financed the land for the owner. The primary additional risk in manufactured home loans is the difficulty in obtaining adequate value for the collateral due to the cost and limited ability to move the collateral. These loans tend to be made to retired individuals and first-time homebuyers. First-time homebuyers of manufactured homes tend to be a higher credit risk than first-time homebuyers of single family residences, due to more limited financial resources. As a result, these loans have a higher probability of default, higher delinquency rates and greater servicing and collateral recovery costs than single family residential loans and other types of consumer loans. We take into account this additional risk as a component of our allowance for loan losses methodology. We attempt to work out delinquent loans with the borrower and, if that is not successful, any repossessed manufactured homes are repossessed and sold. At December 31, 2010, none of our manufactured home loans were non-performing but $118,000 were graded substandard due to well defined weaknesses of the borrowers and or collateral for these loans.

We make loans on new and used automobiles. Our automobile loan portfolio totaled $4.0 million at December 31, 2010, or 12.5% of our consumer loan portfolio and 1.3% of our gross loan portfolio. Automobile loans may be written for a term of up to 84 months for new cars and 72 months for used cars and have fixed rates of interest. Loan-to-value ratios are up to 100% of the lesser of the purchase price or the National Automobile Dealers Association value for auto loans, including tax, licenses, title and mechanical breakdown and gap insurance. We follow our internal underwriting guidelines in evaluating automobile loans, including credit scoring, verification of employment, reviewing debt to income ratios and valuation of the underlying collateral.

Our consumer loans also include loans secured by new and used boats, motorcycles and recreational vehicles, floating homes, loans secured by deposits and unsecured consumer loans, all of which, at December 31, 2010, totaled $8.1 million, or 25.2% of our consumer loan portfolio and 2.7% of our gross loan portfolio. Loans secured by boats, motorcycles and recreational vehicles typically have terms from five to 15 years, depending on the

collateral, and loan-to-value ratios up to 90%. They are made with fixed rates. Our unsecured consumer loans have either a fixed rate of interest generally for a maximum term of 48 months, or are revolving lines of credit of generally up to $5,000. At December 31, 2010, unfunded commitments on our unsecured consumer lines of credit totaled $2.5 million.

Consumer loans (other than our manufactured and floating homes) generally have shorter terms to maturity, which reduces our exposure to changes in interest rates. In addition, management believes that offering consumer loan products helps to expand and create stronger ties to our existing customer base by increasing the number of customer relationships and providing cross-marketing opportunities.

Consumer loans generally entail greater risk than do one- to four-family residential mortgage loans, particularly in the case of consumer loans that are secured by rapidly depreciable assets, such as manufactured homes, automobiles, boats and recreational vehicles. In these cases, any repossessed collateral for a defaulted loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance. As a result, consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability and, thus, are more likely to be adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy.

Commercial Business Lending. At December 31, 2010, commercial business loans totaled $14.7 million, or 4.90% of our gross loan portfolio. Our commercial business lending activities encompass loans with a variety of purposes and security, including loans to finance commercial vehicles and equipment. Approximately $1.5 million of our commercial business loans are unsecured. Our commercial business lending policy includes credit file documentation and analysis of the borrower’s background, capacity to repay the loan, the adequacy of the borrower’s capital and collateral, as well as an evaluation of other conditions affecting the borrower. Analysis of the borrower’s past, present and future cash flows is also an important aspect of our credit analysis. We generally require personal guarantees on both our secured and unsecured commercial business loans. Nonetheless, commercial business loans are believed to carry higher credit risk than residential mortgage loans.

Unlike residential mortgage loans, commercial business loans, particularly unsecured loans, are made on the basis of the borrower’s ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the borrower’s business and, therefore, are of higher risk. We make secured commercial business loans with business assets, such as accounts receivable, inventory equipment and cash as collateral with loan-to-value ratios of up to 80%, based on the type of collateral. This collateral depreciates over time, may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value based on the specific type of business and equipment used. As a result, the availability of funds for the repayment of commercial business loans may be substantially dependent on the success of the business itself (which, in turn, is often dependent in part upon general economic conditions).

Interest rates on commercial business loans are generally adjustable and are based on either the prime rate as reported in the West Coast edition of the Wall Street Journal plus a margin of 1% to 4% or an FHLB advance rate plus a similar margin. In addition, we typically charge loan fees of 1% to 2% of the principal amount at origination, depending on the credit quality and account relationships of the borrower. Some of our commercial business loans are lines of credit with terms of 12 months and interest-only monthly payments during the term. The remainder are term loans of three to seven years.

Substantially all of our commercial business loans have been to borrowers in our market area. We intend to continue our commercial business lending in this geographic area.

Loan Originations, Purchases, Sales, Repayments and Servicing

We originate both fixed-rate and adjustable-rate loans. Our ability to originate loans, however, is dependent upon customer demand for loans in our market areas. Over the past few years, we have continued to originate residential and consumer loans, and increased our emphasis on commercial real estate, construction and development, and commercial business lending. Demand is affected by competition and the interest rate environment. During the past few years, we, like many other financial institutions, have experienced significant prepayments on loans due to the low interest rate environment prevailing in the United States. In periods of economic uncertainty, the ability of financial institutions, including us, to originate large dollar volumes of real estate loans may be substantially reduced or restricted, with a resultant decrease in interest income. In 2010, we did

not acquire any loans. In 2009, we purchased approximately $4.2 million of seasoned multifamily residential real estate loans. In 2010, we engaged in a loan participation with another financial institution in the amount of $3.0 million. We underwrite participations to the same standards as an internally-originated loan.

In addition to interest earned on loans and loan origination fees, we receive fees for loan commitments, late payments and other miscellaneous services.

We also sell whole residential real estate loans without recourse to Fannie Mae, subject to a provision for repurchase upon breach of representation, warranty or covenant. These loans are fixed-rate mortgages, which primarily are sold to improve our interest rate risk. These loans are generally sold for cash in amounts equal to the unpaid principal amount of the loans determined using present value yields to the buyer. These sales allow for a servicing fee on loans when the servicing is retained by us. Most residential real estate loans sold by us are sold with servicing retained. We earned mortgage servicing income of $624,000, $991,000 and $334,000, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008. In November 2009, we acquired a $340.1 million loan servicing portfolio from Leader Financial Services. These loans are 100% owned by Fannie Mae and are subserviced under an agreement with a third party loan servicer who performs all servicing including payment processing, reporting and collections. At December 31, 2010, we were servicing a $438.7 million portfolio of residential mortgage loans for Fannie Mae. These mortgage servicing rights are carried at fair value and had a value at December 31, 2010 of $3.2 million. See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Sales of whole real estate loans and participations in real estate loans can be beneficial to us since these sales generally generate income at the time of sale, produce future servicing income on loans where servicing is retained, provide funds for additional lending and other investments, and increase liquidity. We sold $61.9 million, $84.3 million and $31.6 million of these loans during the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Gains, losses and transfer fees on sales of residential real estate loans and participations are recognized at the time of the sale. Our net gain (loss) on sales of residential loans for all of 2010, 2009 and 2008 were $785,000, $157,000 and $(16,000), respectively.

(1) These loans include $483,000, $2.3 million and $1.9 million, respectively, of adjustable rate mortgage loan originations to employees at December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008.

The decrease in originations in 2010 compared to 2009, particularly one-to four-family real estate loans was due to a lack of relative demand in the most recent period. The ability for borrowers to refinance their existing first mortgage loans was impacted by the interest rate environment, the housing market and the rate of unemployment both in our markets and nationwide.

Asset Quality

When a borrower fails to make a required payment on a residential real estate loan, we attempt to cure the delinquency by contacting the borrower. In the case of loans secured by residential real estate, a late notice typically is sent 15 days after the due date, and the borrower is contacted by phone within 30 days after the due date. Generally, a delinquency letter is mailed to the borrower. All delinquent accounts are reviewed by a loan account executive or branch manager who attempts to cure the delinquency by contacting the borrower once the loan is 30 days past due. If the account becomes 60 days delinquent and an acceptable repayment plan has not been agreed upon, we generally refer the account to legal counsel with instructions to prepare a notice of intent to foreclose. The notice of intent to foreclose allows the borrower up to 30 days to bring the account current. If foreclosed, typically we take title to the property and sell it directly through a real estate broker.

Delinquent consumer loans, as well as delinquent home equity loans and lines of credit, are handled in a similar manner to residential real estate loans, except that appropriate action may be taken to collect any loan payment that is delinquent for more than 15 days. Once the loan is 90 days past due, it is classified as nonaccrual. Generally, credits are charged-off at 120 days past due, unless the Collections Department provides support for continuing its collection efforts. Our procedures for repossession and sale of consumer collateral are subject to various requirements under the applicable consumer protection laws as well as other applicable laws and the determination by us that it would be beneficial from a cost basis.

Delinquent loans are initially handled by the loan officer in charge of the loan, who is responsible for contacting the borrower. The Collections Department also works with the loan officers to see that the necessary steps are taken to collect delinquent loans. In addition, management meets weekly and reviews past due and classified loans, as well as other loans that management feels may present possible collection problems, which are reported to the board on a quarterly basis. If an acceptable workout of a delinquent loan cannot be agreed upon, we generally initiate foreclosure or repossession proceedings on any collateral securing the loan.

Delinquent Loans. The following table sets forth, as of December 31, 2010, our loans delinquent for 60 to 89 days:

	Loans Delinquent For: 60-89 Days

Non-performing Assets. The table below sets forth the amounts and categories of non-performing assets in our loan portfolio. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when the collection of principal and/or interest become doubtful or when the loan is more than 90 days past due. Foreclosed assets include assets acquired in settlement of loans.

Total delinquent loans decreased as of December 31, 2010 (32 loans totaling $4.0 million) compared to December 31, 2009 (40 loans totaling $4.4 million). At the end of 2009, delinquent loans consisted of one-to-four family mortgages, home equity, commercial real estate and consumer loans. At the end of 2010, we had a similar mix of delinquent loans and the delinquency rate continues to reflect the challenging economic conditions in our markets at this time.

For the year ended December 31, 2010, gross interest income that would have been recorded had the non-accruing loans been current in accordance with their original terms amounted to $253,000, all of which was excluded in interest income for the year ended December 31, 2010.

See “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Financial Condition at December 31, 2010 Compared to December 31, 2009 -- Delinquencies and Non-performing Assets” for more information on troubled assets.

Troubled Debt Restructured Loans. Troubled debt restructurings, which are accounted for under ASC 310-40, are loans which have renegotiated loan terms to assist borrowers who are unable to meet the original terms of their loans. Such modifications to loan terms may include a lower interest rate, a reduction in principal, or a longer term to maturity. All troubled debt restructurings are initially classified as impaired, regardless of whether the loan was performing at the time it was restructured. Once a troubled debt restructuring has performed according to its modified terms for six months and the collection of principal and interest under the revised terms is deemed probable, the Company removes the troubled debt restructuring from impaired status. When the loan has performed according to its modified terms for one year, and has reverted back to market rates and terms, it is no longer considered a troubled debt restructuring. At December 31, 2010, we had $4.4 million of loans that were classified as troubled debt restructurings.

Foreclosed Assets. Foreclosed assets include assets acquired in settlement of loans, including five single family residences totaling $1.1 million, two commercial properties totaling $1.3 million, one parcel of land totaling $70,000 and two manufactured homes totaling $150,000. The largest foreclosed property has a book value of $860,000 as of December 31, 2010. We do not expect to experience a material loss on any of the foreclosed assets in our possession.

Other Loans of Concern. In addition to the non-performing assets set forth in the table above, as of December 31, 2010, there were 31 loans totaling $4.4 million with respect to which known information about the possible credit problems of the borrowers have caused management to have doubts as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with present loan repayment terms and which may result in the future inclusion of such items in the non-performing asset categories. These loans have been considered individually in management’s determination of our allowance for loan losses. The largest loan relationship of concern at December 31, 2010, totaled $1.6 million and was secured by land. The remaining loans of concern consist of $1.2 million in commercial real estate loans, $222,000 in commercial business loans, $845,000 in residential mortgage loans, $37,000 in land loans and $22,000 in consumer loans. Loans of concern of $3.1 million had specific loan loss reserves established. The majority of the loans of concern were current at December 31, 2010.

Classified Assets. Federal regulations provide for the classification of loans and other assets, such as debt and equity securities considered by the OTS to be of lesser quality, as “substandard,” “doubtful” or “loss.” An asset is considered “substandard” if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. “Substandard” assets include those characterized by the “distinct possibility” that the insured institution will sustain “some loss” if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as “doubtful” have all of the weaknesses in those classified “substandard,” with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make “collection or liquidation in full,” on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, “highly questionable and improbable.” Assets classified as “loss” are those considered “uncollectible” and of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted.

When we classify problem assets as either substandard or doubtful, we may establish specific allowance for loan losses in an amount deemed prudent by management. Our determination as to the classification of our assets and the amount of our valuation allowances is subject to review by the OTS and the FDIC, which may order the establishment of additional general or specific loss allowances.

We regularly review the problem assets in our portfolio to determine whether any assets require classification in accordance with applicable regulations. On the basis of management’s review of our assets, at December 31, 2010, we had classified $7.0 million of our assets as substandard, which represented a variety of outstanding loans, non-agency mortgage backed securities, foreclosed real estate and other repossessed assets. At that date, we had no assets classified as doubtful or loss. This total amount of classified assets represented 49.8% of our equity capital and 4.0% of our assets at December 31, 2010. Classified assets totaled $12.1 million, or 47.7% of our equity capital and 3.6% of our assets at December 31, 2009. We continued to make improvements to our credit administration procedures during 2010 which has allowed us to identify the classification of a number of loans earlier in the process. In addition to our increased focus on credit administration, deteriorating economic conditions nationwide and in the markets where we do business also contributed to the increase in classified assets from 2009 to 2010.

Allowance for Loan Losses. We maintain an allowance for loan losses to absorb probable credit losses in the loan portfolio. The allowance is based on ongoing, monthly assessments of the estimated probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, peer group information, historical loss experience, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, and prevailing economic conditions. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as residential real estate, small commercial real estate, home equity and consumer loans, are evaluated in the aggregate using historical loss factors and peer group data adjusted for current economic conditions. More complex loans, such as commercial real estate loans and commercial business loans, are evaluated individually for impairment, primarily through the evaluation of net operating income and available cash flow and their possible impact on collateral values.

At December 31, 2010, our allowance for loan losses was $4.4 million, or 1.5% of our total loan portfolio. Our allowance in 2010 was higher than in 2009 and 2008, because of higher net charge-offs, an increase to the overall portfolio, in particular our commercial real estate loan portfolio, and a troubled economic environment. The increase in the allowance for loan losses was necessary as a result of the increase in the Company’s charge-off ratio and an increase in the specific valuation for impaired loans compared to 2009.

Assessing the allowance for loan losses is inherently subjective as it requires making material estimates, including the amount and timing of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans that may be susceptible to significant change. In the opinion of management, the allowance, when taken as a whole, reflects estimated probable loan losses in our loan portfolio. See Notes 1 and 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The following table sets forth an analysis of our allowance for loan losses:

Net charge-offs during the period as a percentage of average loans outstanding during the period		1.21	%		0.75	%		0.26	%		0.11	%		0.40	%

Net charge-offs during the period as a percentage of average non-performing assets		31.21	%		50.02	%		144.46	%		33.46	%		184.42	%

Allowance as a percentage of non-performing loans		60.82	%		30.81	%		104.31	%		198.22	%		281.51	%

Allowance as a percentage of total loans (end of period)		1.48	%		1.18	%		0.49	%		0.37	%		0.40	%

The increase in net charge-offs as a percentage of average non-performing assets is due to higher net charge-offs during the period specifically related to one- to four-family loans, home equity loans and commercial real estate and business loans. These increases were due to challenging market conditions, specifically related to the housing market in the Puget Sound area and Clallam County, Washington.

The increase in our allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-performing loans is a result of the increase in non-performing loans during the period. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans increased to 1.5% as of December 31, 2010 compared to 1.2% as of December 31, 2009.

During June 2006, we sold our credit card portfolio. The credit card portfolio, and charge-offs and the inherent risks associated with that portfolio, were the primary reasons for the level of consumer charge-offs taken during 2006. Net charge-offs for the credit card portfolio totaled $509,000 in 2006.

The distribution of our allowance for losses on loans at the dates indicated is summarized as follows:

Investment Activities

Federal savings banks have the authority to invest in various types of liquid assets, including United States Treasury obligations, securities of various federal agencies, including callable agency securities, certain certificates of deposit of insured banks and savings institutions, certain bankers’ acceptances, repurchase agreements and federal funds. Subject to various restrictions, federal savings banks may also invest their assets in investment grade commercial paper and corporate debt securities and mutual funds whose assets conform to the investments that the institution is otherwise authorized to make directly. See “How We Are Regulated – Sound Community Bank – Office of Thrift Supervision Regulation” for a discussion of additional restrictions on our investment activities.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have the responsibility for the management of our investment portfolio, subject to the direction and guidance of the Board of Directors. These officers consider various factors when making decisions, including the marketability, maturity and tax consequences of the proposed investment. The maturity structure of investments will be affected by various market conditions, including the current and anticipated slope of the yield curve, the level of interest rates, the trend of new deposit inflows, and the anticipated demand for funds via deposit withdrawals and loan originations and purchases.

The general objectives of our investment portfolio will be to provide liquidity when loan demand is high, to assist in maintaining earnings when loan demand is low and to maximize earnings while satisfactorily managing risk, including credit risk, reinvestment risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk. Our investment quality will emphasize safer investments with the yield on those investments secondary to not taking unnecessary risk with the available funds of the Bank. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Asset/Liability Management.”

The investment strategy and portfolio of the Company is similar to that of the Bank; although the Company is subject to fewer regulatory limits on its investments.

At December 31, 2010, we owned $2.4 million in Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle stock. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, we received no dividends from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle. We are required to own this stock to be a member of and to obtain advances from our Federal Home Loan Bank. This stock is not marketable and can only be redeemed by our Federal Home Loan Bank. The Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle has reported a risk-based capital deficiency under the regulations of the Federal Housing Finance

Authority, its primary regulator since the end of 2008. As a result, the Federal Home Loan Bank has suspended dividends on and the repurchase or redemption of its outstanding common stock. The Federal Home Loan Bank has disclosed that it believes the calculation of risk-based capital under the regulations significantly overstates the market risk of its private-label mortgage-backed securities in the current market environment and that it has enough capital to cover the risks reflected in its balance sheet. As a result, we have not recorded any impairment on our Federal Home Loan Bank stock. However, continued deterioration in the Federal Home Loan Bank’s financial position may result in impairment in the value of those securities resulting in a decrease in our earnings and assets. Our Federal Home Loan Bank’s financial condition is linked, in part, to the eleven other members of the Federal Home Loan Bank System and to accounting rules and asset quality risks that could materially lower their capital, which would cause our Federal Home Loan Bank stock to be deemed impaired.

The following table sets forth the composition of our securities portfolio and other investments at the dates indicated. At December 31, 2010, our securities portfolio did not contain securities of any issuer with an aggregate book value in excess of 10% of our equity capital, excluding those issued by the United States Government or its agencies.

________________________

(1)The non-agency mortgage backed securities have an unrealized loss of $1.1 million as of December 31, 2010. These securities were purchased at a discount in 2008 and 2009. Each of these securities has performed and paid principal and interest each month as contractually committed.

The composition and maturities of our investment securities portfolio at December 31, 2010, excluding Federal Home Loan Bank stock, are as follows: Federal agency mortgage-backed securities with an amortized cost of $54,000 and a fair value of $61,000 and a final maturity greater than ten years and non-agency mortgage-backed securities with an amortized cost of $5.5 million and a fair value of $4.5 million and a final maturity greater than ten years.

Projected cash flows are discounted by the original or current effective interest rate depending on the nature of the security being measured for potential OTTI. The remaining impairment related to all other factors, the difference between the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected and the fair value, is recognized as a charge to other comprehensive income (“OCI”). Impairment losses related to all other factors are presented as separate categories within OCI.

During the year ended December 31, 2010, we recognized a $99,000 non-cash OTTI charge on certain on two non-agency mortgage-backed securities. At December 31, 2010, the fair value of these two securities was $1.5 million. Management concluded that the decline of the estimated fair value below the cost of the securities was other than temporary and recorded a credit loss of $99,000 through non-interest income. We determined the remaining decline in value of $1 million was not related to specific credit deterioration. We do not intend to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the securities before anticipated recovery of the remaining amortized cost basis. We closely monitor our investment securities for changes in credit risk. The current market environment significantly limits our ability to mitigate our exposure to valuation changes in these securities by selling them. Accordingly, if market conditions deteriorate further and we determine our holdings of these or other investment securities are OTTI, our future earnings, shareholders’ equity, regulatory capital and continuing operations could be materially adversely affected.

Sources of Funds

General. Our sources of funds are primarily deposits, borrowings, payments of principal and interest on loans and funds provided from operations.

Deposits. We offer a variety of deposit accounts to both consumers and businesses having a wide range of interest rates and terms. Our deposits consist of savings accounts, money market deposit accounts, demand accounts and certificates of deposit. We solicit deposits primarily in our market areas; however, at December 31, 2010, approximately 3.6% of our deposits were from persons outside the State of Washington. As of December 31, 2010, core deposits, which we define as our non-certificate or non-time deposit accounts, represented approximately 46.8% of total deposits, compared to 52.9% as of December 31, 2009. We primarily rely on competitive pricing policies, marketing and customer service to attract and retain these deposits and we expect to continue these practices in the future.

The flow of deposits is influenced significantly by general economic conditions, changes in money market and prevailing interest rates and competition. The variety of deposit accounts we offer has allowed us to be competitive in obtaining funds and to respond with flexibility to changes in consumer demand. We have become more susceptible to short-term fluctuations in deposit flows as customers have become more interest rate conscious. We manage the pricing of our deposits in keeping with our asset/liability management, liquidity and profitability objectives, subject to competitive factors. Based on our experience, we believe that our deposits are relatively stable sources of funds. Despite this stability, our ability to attract and maintain these deposits and the rates paid on them has been and will continue to be significantly affected by market conditions.

The following table sets forth our deposit flows during the periods indicated:

Recent decreases in certificate accounts reflect some expected attrition of single-relationship accounts and other accounts as a result of the East Marginal Way branch closure in 2010 as well as attrition of some acquired accounts from our two branch purchase from 1st Security Bank of Washington that closed in 2009 and decreased emphasis on public fund accounts. Money market account decreases are primarily a result of a decreased emphasis on public fund accounts, especially those out of our market area. The decrease in interest-bearing demand deposits have decreased primarily as a result of our decreased position in the market for those accounts as well as a consumer shift to money market and certificate accounts. Our noninterest-bearing checking increases are a result of our increased emphasis on attracting these and other low cost deposit accounts such as savings. We require our commercial loan customers to maintain a checking or savings account with us. As our commercial lending business increases, we anticipate increases in transaction and savings deposits from our commercial customers. We are a public funds depository and as of December 31, 2010, we had $15.0 million in public funds. These funds consist of $10.5 million in certificates of deposit and $4.6 million in money market accounts. These accounts must be 100% collateralized. We use agency mortgage-backed securities and letters of credit from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle as collateral for these funds.

Borrowings. Although deposits are our primary source of funds, we may utilize borrowings as a cost-effective source of funds when they can be invested at a positive interest rate spread, for additional capacity to fund loan demand, or to meet our asset/liability management goals. Our borrowings currently consist of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle. See Note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

We are a member of and obtain advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle, which is part of the Federal Home Loan Bank System. The twelve regional Federal Home Loan Banks provide a central credit facility for their member institutions. These advances are provided upon the security of certain of our mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities. These advances may be made pursuant to several different credit programs, each of which has its own interest rate, range of maturities and call features, and all long-term advances are required to provide funds for residential home financing. The Bank has entered into a loan agreement with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle pursuant to which it may borrow up to approximately 35% of its assets, secured by a blanket pledge on a portion of our residential mortgage portfolio. At December 31, 2010, we had $24.8 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances outstanding, which had maturities between zero and seven years, and had the ability to borrow an additional $94.6 million, subject to certain collateral requirements. At the same date, we had $136.4 million in residential mortgages, commercial real estate and mortgage-backed securities available to serve as collateral for additional advances. We plan to rely in part on long-term Federal Home Loan Bank advances to fund asset and loan growth. We also use short-term advances to meet short term liquidity needs. We are required to own stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle based on the amount of our advances.

The following table sets forth the maximum month-end balance and average balance of borrowings for the periods indicated:

The Company is authorized to borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco’s “discount window” for overnight liquidity needs. During 2010, we borrowed from the Federal Reserve Bank discount window. The maximum balance was $2.4 million, the average balance was $66,000 and the weighted average rate was 0.50%. During 2009, we had a maximum balance of $8.0 million, an average balance of $1.1 million and the weighted average rate was 0.50%. There were no outstanding balances at December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Subsidiary and Other Activities

The Company has one inactive subsidiary, which was formed when we were a credit union to enable us to originate mortgages for nonmembers. Our capital investment in the inactive subsidiary as of December 31, 2010 was $2,000.

Competition

We face strong competition in attracting deposits and originating loans. Competition in originating real estate loans comes primarily from other savings institutions, commercial banks, credit unions, life insurance companies and mortgage brokers. Other savings institutions, commercial banks, credit unions and finance companies provide vigorous competition in consumer lending. Commercial business competition is primarily from local commercial banks, but other savings banks and credit unions also compete for this business. We compete by consistently delivering high-quality, personal service to our customers which results in a high level of customer satisfaction.

Our market area has a high concentration of financial institutions, many of which are branches of large money center and regional banks that have resulted from the consolidation of the banking industry in Washington and other western states. These include such large national lenders as US Bank, JP Morgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Bank of America, Key Bank and others in our market area that have greater resources than we do and offer services that we do not provide. For example, we do not offer trust services or non-FDIC insured investments. Customers who seek “one-stop shopping” may be drawn to institutions that offer services that we do not.

We attract our deposits through our branch office system. Competition for those deposits is principally from other savings institutions, commercial banks and credit unions located in the same community, as well as mutual funds and other alternative investments. We compete for these deposits by offering superior service and a variety of deposit accounts at competitive rates. Based on the most recent data provided by the FDIC, there are approximately 75 other commercial banks and savings institutions operating in the Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue, Washington Metropolitan Statistical Area and 13 other commercial banks and savings institutions in Clallam County. Based on the most recent branch deposit data provided by the FDIC, the Bank’s share of deposits in the Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue, Washington Metropolitan Statistical Area was approximately 0.2%. The five largest financial institutions in that area have 72.5% of those deposits. In addition, our share of deposits in Clallam County was 9.3%, with the five largest institutions in that county having 69.1% of the deposits.

Employees

At December 31, 2010, we had a total of 62 full-time employees and 12 part-time employees. Our employees are not represented by any collective bargaining group. Management considers its employee relations to be good.

How We Are Regulated

Set forth below is a brief description of certain laws and regulations that are applicable to the Company, the Bank and the MHC. The description of these laws and regulations, as well as descriptions of laws and regulations contained elsewhere herein, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the applicable laws and regulations.

Legislation is introduced from time to time in the United States Congress that may affect our operations. In addition, the regulations governing the Company, the Bank and the MHC may be amended from time to time by the FDIC, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the SEC, as appropriate. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act that was enacted on July 21, 2010 (“Dodd Frank Act”), provides, among other things, for new restrictions and an expanded framework of regulatory oversight for financial institutions and their holding companies, including the Company and the Bank. Under the new law, the Bank’s primary regulator, the OTS, will be eliminated, and the Bank will be subject to regulation and supervision by the OCC, which currently oversees national banks. In addition, beginning in 2011, all financial institution holding companies, including the Company, will be regulated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, including imposing federal capital requirements on the Company and may result in additional restrictions on investments and other holding company activities. The law also creates a new consumer financial protection bureau that will have the authority to promulgate rules intended to protect consumers in the financial product and services market. The creation of this independent bureau could result in new regulatory requirements and raise the cost of regulatory compliance. In addition, new regulations mandated by the law could require changes in regulatory capital requirements, loan loss provisioning practices, and compensation practices and require holding companies to serve as a source of strength for their financial institution subsidiaries. Effective July 21, 2011, financial institutions may pay interest on demand deposits, which could increase our interest expense. We cannot determine the full impact of the new law on our business and operations at this time. Any such legislative or regulatory changes in the future could adversely affect our operations and financial condition.

The OTS has extensive enforcement authority over all savings associations and their holding companies, including the Company, the Bank and the MHC. This enforcement authority includes, among other things, the ability to assess civil money penalties, to issue cease-and-desist or removal orders and to initiate injunctive actions. In general, these enforcement actions may be initiated for violations of laws and regulations and unsafe or unsound practices. Other actions or inactions may provide the basis for enforcement action, including misleading or untimely reports filed with the OTS. Except under certain circumstances, public disclosure of formal enforcement actions by the OTS is required by law.

Sound Community Bank. The Bank, as a federally chartered savings bank, is subject to regulation, periodic examination and oversight by the OTS, which extends to all aspects of its operations. This regulation of the Bank is intended for the protection of depositors and the insurance of accounts fund and not for the purpose of protecting shareholders. As noted above, this OTS oversight will be transferred to the OCC in 2011. The Bank is

required to maintain minimum levels of regulatory capital and is subject to some limitations on the payment of dividends to Sound Financial. See “- Regulatory Capital Requirements” and “- Limitations on Dividends and Other Capital Distributions.” The Bank also is subject to regulation and examination by the FDIC, which insures the deposits of the Bank to the maximum extent permitted by law.

The investment and lending authority of the Bank is prescribed by federal laws and regulations, and it is prohibited from engaging in any activities not permitted by such laws and regulations. In addition, all savings associations are required to maintain qualified thrift lender status to avoid certain restrictions on their operations. This status is maintained by meeting the OTS qualified thrift lender test, which requires a savings institution to have a designated level of thrift-related assets, generally consisting of residential housing-related loans and investments, thereby indirectly limiting investment in other assets. As of December 31, 2010, the Bank met this test and has met it since it became a federal savings bank. If the Bank loses qualified thrift lender status, it becomes subject to national bank investment and activity limits.

The Bank is subject to a statutory lending limit for aggregate loans to one person or a group of persons combined because of certain common interests. That limit is equal to 15% of our unimpaired capital and surplus, except for loans fully secured by readily marketable collateral, in which case that limit is increased to 25%. At December 31, 2010, the Bank’s general 15% lending limit under this restriction was $4.6 million. We have no loans or lending relationships in excess of our lending limit.

The Bank is subject to periodic examinations by the OTS. During these examinations, the examiners may require that the Bank provide for higher general or specific loan loss reserves, which can impact our capital and earnings. As a federal savings bank, the Bank is subject to a semi-annual assessment, based upon its total assets, to fund the operations of the OTS.

The OTS has adopted guidelines establishing safety and soundness standards on such matters as loan underwriting and documentation, asset quality, earnings standards, internal controls and audit systems, interest rate risk exposure and compensation and other employee benefits. Any institution regulated by the OTS that fails to comply with these standards must submit a compliance plan.

FDIC Regulation and Insurance of Accounts. The Bank’s deposits are insured up to the applicable limits by the FDIC, and such insurance is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government. The basic deposit insurance level is $250,000. As insurer, the FDIC imposes deposit insurance premiums and is authorized to conduct examinations of and to require reporting by FDIC-insured institutions. Our deposit insurance premiums for the year ended December 31, 2010 were $645,000. Those premiums have increased in recent years and may continue to increase due to strains on the FDIC deposit insurance fund due to the cost of large bank failures and increase in the number of troubled banks.

The FDIC assesses deposit insurance premiums quarterly on each FDIC-insured institution based on deposit levels and annualized rates for one of four risk categories applied to its deposits subject to certain adjustments. Each institution is assigned to one of four risk categories based on its capital, supervisory ratings and other factors, and its deposit insurance premiums are based on these risk categories, with higher-risk institutions paying higher premiums.

In accordance with the requirements in the Dodd-Frank Act, the FDIC has issued new regulations setting insurance premium assessments based on an institution’s total assets minus its Tier 1 capital instead of its deposits. The new premiums are effective April 1, 2011 and payable at the end of September 2011. The intent of the new regulations at this time is not to substantially change the level of premiums paid notwithstanding the use of assets as the calculation base instead of deposits. The Bank’s premiums will be based on its same assignment under one of four risk categories based on capital, supervisory ratings and other factors; however, the premium rates for those risk categories would be revised to maintain similar premium levels under the new calculation as currently exist.

As a result of a decline in the reserve ratio (the ratio of the net worth of the deposit insurance fund to estimated insured deposits) and concerns about expected failure costs and available liquid assets in the deposit insurance fund, the FDIC required each insured institution to prepay on December 30, 2009, the estimated amount of its quarterly assessments for the fourth quarter of 2009 and all quarters through the end of 2012 (in addition to the

regular quarterly assessment for the third quarter which was due on December 30, 2009). The prepaid amount is recorded as an asset with a zero risk weight and the institution will continue to record quarterly expenses for deposit insurance. For purposes of calculating the prepaid amount, assessments are measured at the institution’s assessment rate as of September 30, 2009, with a uniform increase of 3 basis points effective January 1, 2011, and are based on the institution’s assessment base for the third quarter of 2009, with growth assumed quarterly at an annual rate of 5%. If events cause actual assessments during the prepayment period to vary from the prepaid amount, institutions will pay excess assessments in cash, or receive a rebate of prepaid amounts not exhausted after collection of assessments due on January 13, 2013, as applicable. Collection of the prepayment does not preclude the FDIC from changing assessment rates or revising the risk-based assessment system in the future. The rule includes a process for exemption from the prepayment for institutions whose safety and soundness would be affected adversely. The FDIC estimates that the reserve ratio will reach the designated reserve ratio of 1.15% by 2017 as required by statute.

The FDIC also may prohibit any FDIC-insured institution from engaging in any activity that it determines by regulation or order to pose a serious risk to the deposit insurance fund. The FDIC also has the authority to initiate enforcement actions against the Bank and may terminate our deposit insurance if it determines that we have engaged in unsafe or unsound practices or are in an unsafe or unsound condition.

Sound Financial and Sound Community MHC. As savings association holding companies, Sound Financial and MHC are subject to regulation, supervision and examination by the OTS. This oversight will transfer to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the OCC in 2011. The terms of their charters and bylaws are prescribed by the OTS. Under regulations of the OTS, MHC must own a majority of outstanding shares of Sound Financial in order to qualify as a mutual holding Company. Applicable federal laws and regulations limit the activities of Sound Financial and MHC and require the approval of the OTS for any acquisition or divestiture of a subsidiary, including another financial institution or holding company thereof. Transactions between MHC or Sound Financial and the Bank are subject to regulatory limits and requirements for transactions with affiliates. If the Bank fails the qualified thrift lender test, MHC and Sound Financial must obtain the approval of the OTS prior to continuing, directly or through other subsidiaries, in any business activity other than those approved for bank holding companies or their subsidiaries. In addition, within one year of such failure, MHC and Sound Financial must register as, and will become subject to, the restrictions applicable to bank holding companies. Under regulations of the OTS, MHC may convert to the stock form of ownership, though it has no current intention to do so. In that stock conversion, the members of MHC would have a right to subscribe for shares of stock in a new holding company that would own MHC’s shares in Sound Financial. In addition, each share of stock in Sound Financial not owned by MHC would be converted into shares in that new company in an amount that preserves the holder’s percentage ownership.

Regulatory Capital Requirements. The Bank is required to maintain minimum levels of regulatory capital under regulations of the OTS. The OTS has established capital standards, including a leverage or core capital requirement and a risk-based capital requirement applicable to all savings institutions. In addition, the OTS is also authorized to impose capital requirements in excess of these standards on a case-by-case basis. See “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation -- Capital Resources” for information on the Bank’s compliance with these capital requirements.

The capital standards generally require core capital equal to at least 4.0% of adjusted total assets. Core capital consists of tangible capital plus certain intangible assets, including a limited amount of purchased credit card relationships. The OTS also requires savings institutions to have total capital of at least 8.0% of risk-weighted assets. Total capital consists of core capital, as defined above, and supplementary capital. Supplementary capital consists of certain permanent and maturing capital instruments that do not qualify as core capital and general valuation loan and lease loss allowances up to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets. The OTS is also authorized to require a savings institution to maintain an additional amount of total capital to account for concentration of credit risk and the risk of non-traditional activities. In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets, all assets, including certain off-balance sheet items, will be multiplied by a risk weight, ranging from 0% to 100%, based on the risk inherent in the type of asset. From a policy perspective, due to increased nonperforming loans and depressed economic conditions, the OTS encouraged institutions to have capital in excess of these requirements (often 8% core and 12% risk-based capital) during 2010. The Bank has agreed to meet these levels of capital in a memorandum of understanding with the OTS.

The OTS and FDIC are authorized and, under certain circumstances, required to take certain actions against savings banks that fail to meet these capital requirements and other designated capital levels. The OTS is generally required to take action to restrict the activities of an “undercapitalized institution,” which is an institution with less than either a 4.0% core capital ratio, a 4.0% Tier 1 risked-based capital ratio or an 8.0% total risk-based capital ratio. Any such institution must submit a capital restoration plan and until such plan is approved by the OTS may not increase its assets, acquire another institution, establish a branch or engage in any new activities, and generally may not make capital distributions.

Any institution that fails to comply with its capital plan or has Tier 1 risk-based or core capital ratios of less than 3.0% or a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 6.0% is considered “significantly undercapitalized” and must be made subject to one or more additional specified actions and operating restrictions that may cover all aspects of its operations and may include a forced merger or acquisition of the institution. An institution with tangible equity to total assets of less than 2.0% is “critically undercapitalized,” becomes subject to further mandatory restrictions on its operations and generally must be placed in receivership or conservatorship within 90 days. The OTS generally is authorized to reclassify an institution into a lower capital category and impose the restrictions applicable to such category if the institution is engaged in unsafe or unsound practices or is in an unsafe or unsound condition. The imposition by the OTS of any of these measures on the Bank may have a substantial adverse effect on its operations and profitability.

Capital Requirements for the Company and MHC. The Company and MHC are not subject to any specific capital requirements, though, under the Dodd-Frank Act, they will become subject to bank holding company requirements in five years. The OTS, however, expects them to support the Bank, including providing additional capital to the Bank when it does not meet its regulatory capital requirements. The Company has agreed in a memorandum of understanding with the OTS to assist the Bank in meeting the higher capital levels required in its memorandum of understanding with the OTS. As a result of this expectation, the OTS regulates the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to the Company and has prohibited those dividends in the memoranda of understanding.

Limitations on Dividends and Other Capital Distributions. OTS regulations impose various restrictions on the ability of the Bank to make distributions of capital, which include dividends, stock redemptions or repurchases, cash-out mergers and other transactions charged to the capital account. The Bank must file a notice or application with the OTS before making any capital distribution. The Bank generally may make capital distributions during any calendar year in an amount up to 100% of net income for the year-to-date plus retained net income for the two preceding years, so long as it is well-capitalized (5.0% core capital, 6.0% Tier 1 risk-based capital and 8.0% total risk-based capital) after the distribution. If the Bank, however, proposes to make a capital distribution when it does not meet its current minimum capital requirements (or will not following the proposed capital distribution) or that will exceed these net income limitations, it must obtain OTS approval prior to making such distribution. The OTS may object to any distribution based on safety and soundness concerns. The memorandum of understanding limits all Bank dividends without OTS approval.

The Company is subject to OTS regulatory restrictions on the payment of dividends based on a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with the OTS. The MOU limits all Company dividends without OTS approval. Dividends from the Company may also depend, in part, upon its receipt of dividends from the Bank. In addition, the Company may not make a distribution that would constitute a return of capital during the three-year term of the business plan submitted in connection with the mutual holding company reorganization and 2008 stock issuance. No insured depositary institution may make a capital distribution if, after making the distribution, the institution would be undercapitalized.

Currently, MHC may elect to waive its pro rata portion of a dividend declared and paid by Sound Financial after filing a notice with and receiving no objection from the OTS. We anticipate that MHC, subject to its own need for capital and funds, will waive dividends paid by Sound Financial. The interests of other shareholders of Sound Financial who receive dividends are not diluted by any waiver of dividends by MHC in the event of a full stock conversion. However, this dividend waiver and the impact of prior waivers on a full stock conversion are expected to change when holding company authority is transferred to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the OCC in 2011.

Federal Taxation

General. The Company and the Bank are subject to federal income taxation in the same general manner as other corporations, with some exceptions discussed below. The following discussion of federal taxation is intended only to summarize certain pertinent federal income tax matters and is not a comprehensive description of the tax rules applicable to Sound Financial or the Bank. The Company and the Bank’s federal income tax returns have never been audited.

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, on January 1, 2007. The Company had no unrecognized tax benefits which would require an adjustment to the January 1, 2007 beginning balance of retained earnings. The Company had no unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2009 and at December 31, 2010.

The Company recognizes interest accrued and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in tax expense. During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 the Company recognized no interest and penalties.

The Company or its subsidiary files an income tax return in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various states. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal or state/local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2007.

Method of Accounting. For federal income tax purposes, the Company currently reports its income and expenses on the accrual method of accounting and uses a fiscal year ending on December 31 for filing its federal income tax return.

Minimum Tax. The Internal Revenue Code imposes an alternative minimum tax at a rate of 20% on a base of regular taxable income plus certain tax preferences, called alternative minimum taxable income. The alternative minimum tax is payable to the extent such alternative minimum taxable income is in excess of the regular tax. Net operating losses can offset no more than 90% of alternative minimum taxable income. Certain payments of alternative minimum tax may be used as credits against regular tax liabilities in future years. The Company and the Bank has not been subject to the alternative minimum tax, nor do we have any such amounts available as credits for carryover.

Net Operating Loss Carryovers. A financial institution may carryback net operating losses to the preceding two taxable years and forward to the succeeding 20 taxable years. This provision applies to losses incurred in taxable years beginning after August 6, 1997. At December 31, 2010, we had no net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes.

Corporate Dividends-Received Deduction. Sound Financial has elected to file a consolidated return with the Bank. Therefore any dividends it receives from the Bank will not be included as income to the Company. The corporate dividends-received deduction is 100%, or 80% in the case of dividends received from corporations with which a corporate recipient does not file a consolidated tax return, depending on the level of stock ownership of the payer of the dividend.

State Taxation

The Company and the Bank are subject to a business and occupation tax imposed under Washington law at the rate of 1.8% of gross receipts. Interest received on loans secured by mortgages or deeds of trust on residential properties and certain investment securities are exempt from this tax.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Not required; the Company is a smaller reporting company.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

Not applicable.

Item 2. Properties

All of our offices are leased. The operating leases contain renewal options and require the Company to pay property taxes and operating expenses on the properties. Our total rental expense for each of the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $793,000 and $759,000, respectively. The aggregate net book value of the Company’s leasehold improvements, furniture and equipment was $3.3 million at December 31, 2010. See also Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. In the opinion of management, the facilities are adequate and suitable for the current needs of the Bank. During 2009, we opened a new branch in Port Angeles, acquired the Tacoma branch of 1st Security Bank of Washington and consolidated our Lakewood branch into that Tacoma facility. We closed our East Marginal Way facility in March 2010, when the current lease was terminated. We may open additional banking offices to better serve current customers and to attract new customers in subsequent years.

The following table sets forth certain information concerning the main office and each branch office of the Bank at December 31, 2010.

PART II

Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

The common stock of Sound Financial is traded on the Over-the-Counter Electronic Bulletin Board under the symbol "SNFL." The table below shows the high and low closing prices and quarterly dividends for our common stock for the periods indicated. This stock price information was provided by the Yahoo Finance System and is based on OTC quotations, which reflect inter-dealer prices with retail mark-up, mark-down or commissions and may not represent actual transactions.

	Stock Price		Dividends Per Share
2010 Quarters	High	Low	Dividends Per Share
First Quarter (ended 3/31/2010)	$5.10	$3.85	$0.02
Second Quarter (ended 6/30/2010)	$7.00	$4.50	$0.00
Third Quarter (ended 9/30/2010)	$5.25	$4.60	$0.00
Fourth Quarter (ended 12/31/2010)	$5.00	$4.75	$0.00

	Stock Price		Dividends Per Share
2009 Quarters	High	Low	Dividends Per Share
First Quarter (ended 3/31/2009)	$7.50	$5.90	$0.04
Second Quarter (ended 6/30/2009)	$7.00	$5.75	$0.04
Third Quarter (ended 9/30/2009)	$7.00	$5.45	$0.02
Fourth Quarter (ended 12/31/2009)	$6.00	$4.10	$0.02

At December 31, 2010, there were 3,000,095 shares outstanding and the closing price of our common stock on that date was $4.80. On that date, we had approximately 315 shareholders of record.

Our cash dividend payout policy is reviewed continually by management and the Board of Directors. In July 2010, the Company entered into a memorandum of understanding with the OTS that requires that the Company: (1) assist the Bank in increasing its core and risk-based capital ratios to 8% and 12%, respectively, and (2) not pay or declare any dividends or redeem any of its stock without OTS approval. As a result, the Company has suspended its policy of paying quarterly dividends. The Board does not anticipate reinstating cash dividends until after March 31, 2011 and, even then, any dividends would depend upon a number of factors, including capital requirements, our financial condition and results of operations, tax considerations, statutory and regulatory limitations, and general economic conditions. No assurances can be given that any dividends will be paid or that, if paid, will not be reduced or eliminated in future periods. Our future payment of dividends may depend, in part, upon receipt of dividends from the Bank. Federal regulations and a July 2010 memorandum of understanding between the Bank and the OTS restrict the ability of the Bank to pay dividends and make other capital distributions to us.

Information regarding our equity compensation plan is included in Item 12 of this Form 10-K.

The Company did not repurchase any shares in 2010 and has no stock repurchase plan currently authorized.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

Sound Financial, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on January 8, 2008, to hold all of the stock of Sound Community Bank (the “Bank”) after its reorganization into stock form and the mutual holding company structure. Sound MHC, the mutual holding company created in that reorganization (“MHC”), owned 55% of the outstanding stock of the Company at 2010 year-end.

The Company was organized as part of the Bank reorganization into the mutual holding company form of organization. In that reorganization, the Bank (i) converted to a stock savings bank as the successor to the Bank in its mutual form; (ii) organized the Company, which owns 100% of the common stock of the Bank; and (iii) organized MHC, which acquired 54% of the common stock of the Company in the reorganization. MHC has no other activities or operations other than its ownership of the Company. The Company has no significant assets other than all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Bank, its loan to the Company’s Employee Stock Ownership Plan and certain liquid assets.

In connection with the reorganization, the Company sold 1,297,148 shares of common stock in a subscription offering that closed on January 8, 2008. Those shares constituted 44% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. The Company also issued 29,480 shares of common stock to Sound Community Foundation, a charitable foundation created by the Bank in connection with the reorganization and subscription offering. The remaining 1,621,435 shares of common stock of the Company outstanding were issued in accordance with federal law to MHC.

The Bank was originally chartered in 1953 as the Associated Grocers Employees Federal Credit Union. By the late 1980’s, the members of the credit union expanded from employees of Associated Grocers to employees of other businesses. In the 1990’s, the credit union was serving employees of approximately 450 small companies. In 1992, it changed its name to Credit Union of the Pacific. On May 19, 2003, Credit Union of the Pacific converted its charter from a state-chartered credit union to a federally chartered savings bank. On that date the name was changed from Credit Union of the Pacific to Sound Community Bank.

The Company’s principal business consists of attracting retail deposits from the general public and investing those funds, along with borrowed funds, in loans secured by first and second mortgages on one- to four-family residences (including home equity loans and lines of credit), commercial real estate, consumer and commercial business loans and, to a lesser extent, construction and development loans. We offer a wide variety of secured and unsecured consumer loan products, including manufactured home loans, automobile loans, boat loans and recreational vehicle loans. We intend to continue emphasizing our residential mortgage, home equity and consumer lending, while also expanding our emphasis in commercial real estate and commercial business lending. In recent years, we have focused on expanding our commercial loan portfolio (commercial real estate and other commercial loans), which has grown to $115.1 million or 38.4% of our loan portfolio at December 31, 2010, from $93.0 million or 32.0% of our loan portfolio at December 31, 2009.

As part of our business, we focus on residential mortgage loan originations, many of which we sell to Fannie Mae. We sell these loans with servicing retained to maintain the direct customer relationship and promote our emphasis on strong customer service. We originated $73.8 million and $114.9 million in one- to four-family residential mortgage loans during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. During these same periods, we sold $61.9 million and $84.3 million, respectively, of one- to four-family residential mortgage loans.

We offer a variety of deposit accounts, which are our primary source of funding for our lending activities. We also rely on Federal Home Loan Bank advances to augment our deposits, to fund the growth of interest earning assets and to manage interest rate risk.

The Company’s earnings are primarily dependent upon our net interest income, the difference between interest income and interest expense. Interest income is a function of the balances of loans and investments outstanding during a given period and the yield earned on these loans and investments. Interest expense is a function of the amount of deposits and borrowings outstanding during the same period and interest rates paid on these deposits and borrowings. The Company’s earnings are also affected by our provision for loan losses, service charges and fees, gains and losses from sales of loans and other assets, other income, operating expenses and income taxes.

During 2009 and 2010, the Company encountered a number of challenges but also met a number of its goals. The declining economy in our market resulted in increased delinquencies and foreclosures, which required us to increase our reserves and impacted our 2010 earnings. In particular, the increase in the unemployment rate and the decrease in the housing markets in western Washington had an adverse impact on our performance. However, we were still able to meet our goals of expanding our franchise and increasing our commercial business and real estate lending activities. Our commercial business and real estate loan portfolios increased 24.6% and 26.3% in 2010 and 2009, respectively. The impact of additional commercial business and real estate loans has had a positive impact on our net interest income and has helped to further diversify our loan portfolio mix. In particular, emphasis on multifamily housing has enhanced our commercial real estate portfolio. At December 31, 2010, our multifamily portfolio was $30.9 million, which represents a 57.1% increase over December 31, 2009.

In July 2010, the Company and the Bank each entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with the OTS to address the regulator’s concerns about certain deficiencies or weaknesses at the Bank. The Board of Directors believes that the MOU’s will not fundamentally constrain the Bank’s or the Company’s business and that compliance can be achieved. The MOU’s will be in effect until modified or terminated by the OTS (or the OCC as its successor agency). Under its MOU, the Bank has committed to achieving by March 31, 2011, and, thereafter, maintaining an 8.0% core capital ratio and a 12.0% total risk-based capital ratio, after funding an adequate allowance for loan and lease losses. At December 31, 2010, the Bank’s core and total risk-based capital ratios were 7.89% and 11.67%. See “- Capital Resources.” The Bank also committed to: (1) prepare and follow a business plan subject to OTS oversight through the end of 2012; (2) prepare and implement a plan to reduce classified assets; (3) not pay any dividends or make any other capital distributions without OTS approval; and (4) not increase its level of brokered deposits above the level on November 24, 2009 without OTS approval. The Bank believes it is in material compliance with these additional requirements and did decrease its level of classified assets at year-end from the level in July 2010. In its MOU, the Company committed to: (1) assist the Bank in meeting the capital ratios in its MOU; (2) not declare or pay any cash dividends or redeem any stock without OTS approval; (3) not accept any dividends from the Bank or any other payments that would reduce the capital of the Bank; (4) not increase or renew any debt without OTS approval; and (5) prepare and implement a plan subject to OTS oversight addressing how it will meet its financial obligations through the end of 2012.

On March 31, 2010, the Bank closed its East Marginal Way branch in South Seattle. This decision was made in part to help reduce the bank’s operating expenses and also in recognition of the waning market in this location. This branch was the original branch for the Bank dating back several decades. It was the only branch for the institution until 1992. As of March 31, 2010, total deposits at this branch were $48.1 million. As of December 31, 2010, deposits from this branch had decreased by approximately $7.3 million or 15.2%.

During 2010, the Bank also executed a reduction in its workforce. As a result, the number of employees as of December 31, 2010 was 74, compared to 92 as of December 31, 2009. The reduction was implemented across the board including reductions in branch, commercial lending, retail lending and back office staff. Subsequent to year end, the Bank also terminated employment with its Executive Vice President of Retail Banking. The Bank does not intend to replace this position at this time. The primary responsibilities for the retail banking function will be assumed by Marlene Price, Senior Vice President of Lending.

During 2009, the Bank expanded its operations through the acquisition of two branches in Port Angeles and Tacoma, Washington. In July 2009, the Bank opened a new branch in Port Angeles. On September 1, 2009, the Bank acquired the Port Angeles and Tacoma offices of 1st Security Bank, including $33.6 million in combined deposits. The operations of the Port Angeles location were moved to the Bank’s new Port Angeles branch, and the former 1st Security Bank branch location was vacated and sold. The Bank’s former branch in Lakewood was closed and the operations were consolidated into the leased former 1st Security branch in Tacoma. As of December 31, 2010, the Port Angeles branch had $32.5 million in deposits and the Tacoma branch had $30.6 million in deposits.

Our primary market area is the Puget Sound region in western Washington. Adverse economic conditions in that market area can reduce our rate of growth, affect our customers’ ability to repay loans and adversely impact our financial condition and earnings. General economic conditions, including inflation, unemployment and money supply fluctuations, also may affect our profitability adversely. Our market area is undergoing a recession, which has resulted in higher levels of loan delinquencies, problem assets and foreclosures, decreased demand for our products and services and a decline in the value of our loan collateral. If this recession continues or becomes more severe, this negative impact on our business, financial condition and earnings may increase.

Beginning in 2008, United States and global financial markets have experienced severe disruption and volatility, and general economic conditions have declined significantly. Adverse developments in credit quality, asset values and revenue opportunities throughout the financial services industry, as well as general uncertainty regarding the economic, industry and regulatory environment, have had a marked negative impact on the industry. Dramatic declines in the U.S. housing market over the past two years, with falling home prices, increasing foreclosures and increasing unemployment, have negatively affected the credit performance of mortgage loans and resulted in significant write-downs of asset values by many financial institutions. The United States and the governments of other countries have taken steps to try to stabilize the financial system, including investing in financial institutions, and have also been working to design and implement programs to improve general economic conditions. Notwithstanding the actions of the United States and other governments, these efforts may not succeed in restoring industry, economic or market conditions and may result in adverse unintended consequences. Factors that could continue to pressure financial services companies, including the Company, are numerous and include: (i) worsening credit quality, leading among other things to increases in loan losses and reserves; (ii) continued or worsening disruption and volatility in financial markets, leading among other things to continuing reductions in asset values; (iii) capital and liquidity concerns regarding financial institutions generally; (iv) limitations resulting from or imposed in connection with governmental actions intended to stabilize or provide additional regulation of the financial system; and (v) recessionary conditions that are deeper or last longer than currently anticipated.

Recent Accounting Standards

For a discussion of recent accounting standards, please see Note 2 - Accounting Pronouncements Recently Issued or Adopted in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.

Critical Accounting Policies

Certain of our accounting policies are important to an understanding of our financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates associated with these policies are susceptible to material changes as a result of changes in facts and circumstances. Facts and circumstances that could affect these judgments include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, changes in the performance of the economy and changes in the financial condition of borrowers. Management believes that its critical accounting policies include determining the allowance for loan losses, accounting for other-than-temporary impairment of securities, accounting for mortgage servicing rights, accounting for other real estate owned, and accounting for deferred income taxes. For additional information on our accounting policies see “Note 1 - Organization and Significant Accounting Principles” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.

Allowance for Loan Loss. The allowance for loan losses is the amount estimated by management as necessary to cover losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The allowance is established through the provision for loan losses, which is charged to income. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses necessarily involves a high degree of judgment. Among the material estimates required to establish the allowance are: loss exposure at default; the amount and timing of future cash flows on impacted loans; value of collateral; and determination of loss factors to be applied to the various elements of the portfolio. All of these estimates are susceptible to significant change. Management reviews the level of the allowance at least quarterly and establishes the provision for loan losses based upon an evaluation of the portfolio, past loss experience, current economic conditions and other factors related to the collectability of the loan portfolio. To strengthen our loan

review and classification process, we engage an independent consultant to review our classified commercial loans and a sampling of our non-classified commercial loans on a regular basis. We have enhanced our credit administration policies and procedures to improve our maintenance of updated financial data on commercial borrowers. This change did not greatly impact the determination of our allowance for loan losses, as we did not experience any unusual losses on classified loans relative to non-classified loans. Although we believe that we use the best information available to establish the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluation. In addition, the OTS, as an integral part of its examination process, periodically reviews our allowance for loan losses and may require us to recognize adjustments to the allowance based on its judgments about information available to it at the time of its examination. A large loss could deplete the allowance and require increased provisions to replenish the allowance, which would adversely affect earnings.

Other-than-temporary impairment of securities. Management reviews investment securities on an ongoing basis for the presence of other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) or permanent impairment, taking into consideration current market conditions; fair value in relationship to cost; extent and nature of the change in fair value; issuer rating changes and trends; whether management intends to sell a security or if it is likely that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of the amortized cost basis of the investment, which may be upon maturity; and other factors. For debt securities, if management intends to sell the security or it is likely that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovering its cost basis, the entire impairment loss would be recognized in earnings as an OTTI. If management does not intend to sell the security and it is not likely that the Company will be required to sell the security, but management does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security, only the portion of the impairment loss representing credit losses would be recognized in earnings. The credit loss on a security is measured as the difference between the amortized cost basis and the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected. Projected cash flows are discounted by the original or current effective interest rate depending on the nature of the security being measured for potential OTTI. The remaining impairment related to all other factors, i.e., the difference between the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected and fair value, is recognized as a charge to other comprehensive loss. Impairment losses related to all other factors are presented as separate categories within other comprehensive loss.

Mortgage Servicing Rights. We record mortgage servicing rights on loans sold to Fannie Mae with servicing retained. The Company stratifies its capitalized mortgage servicing rights based on the type, term and interest rates of the underlying loans. The fair value of purchased mortgage servicing rights is estimated using a discounted cash flow model based on market information from a third party. At December 31, 2010, mortgage servicing rights are carried at fair value.

Other Real Estate Owned. Other real estate owned represents real estate that the Company has taken control of in partial or full satisfaction of significantly delinquent loans. At the time of foreclosure, other real estate owned is recorded at the lower of the carrying amount of the loan or fair value less costs to sell, which becomes the property’s new basis. Any write-downs based on the asset’s fair value at the date of acquisition are charged to the allowance for loan losses. After foreclosure, management periodically performs valuations such that the real estate is carried at the lower of its new cost basis or fair value, net of estimated costs to sell. Subsequent valuation adjustments are recognized within net (loss) gain on other real estate owned. Revenue and expenses from operations and subsequent adjustments to the carrying amount of the property are included in other non-interest expense in the consolidated statements of income. In some instances, the Company may make loans to facilitate the sales of other real estate owned. Any gains related to sales of other real estate owned may be deferred until the buyer has a sufficient initial and continuing investment in the property.

Income Taxes. Income taxes are reflected in our financial statements to show the tax effects of the operations and transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently payable plus deferred taxes. ASC Topic 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” requires the asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for deferred income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities result from differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. They are reflected at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be realized or settled and are determined using the assets and liability method of accounting. The deferred

income provision represents the difference between net deferred tax asset/liability at the beginning and end of the reported period. In formulating our deferred tax asset, we are required to estimate our income and taxes in the jurisdiction in which we operate. This process involves estimating our actual current tax exposure for the reported period together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items, such as depreciation and the provision for loan losses, for tax and financial reporting purposes.

Business and Operating Strategies and Goals

Our primary objective is to provide meaningful returns to our shareholder’s while building a strong capital base which is the foundation for growth and profitability. Management intends to maintain Sound Community Bank as a well-capitalized, profitable, financial institution serving customers in our primary market areas, including the Greater Puget Sound area and Clallam County, Washington. Our strategy is to provide innovative products and superior service to both individuals and small businesses in our primary market areas, which we currently provide through our five convenient full service banking centers located in the heart of downtown Seattle, Mountlake Terrace, Tacoma, Sequim and Port Angeles, Washington. We support these banking centers with 24/7 access to online banking and participation in a nationwide ATM network. Our basic operating strategy and goals are listed below.

Continue to grow capital through improved earnings. Through asset mix management and pricing and lower cost funds, we will seek to optimize our interest rate margin while managing our interest rate risk. We will seek new sources of non-interest income by emphasizing selective products and services that provide diversification of revenue sources, including interest income, fees and servicing income. We also will continue to manage operating expenses while continuing to provide superior personal service to our customers. In 2010, operating expenses were lower than in 2009, in spite of higher salaries and benefits as the result of the addition of two branches in late 2009. We were able to reduce operating expenses in three primary areas, collections expense, marketing and professional fees, including legal fees. In 2010, earnings were also higher as the result of higher net interest income due to higher interest income on interest earning assets coupled with a 39.2% reduction in interest expense on interest bearing liabilities. The Bank benefitted from the overall interest rate environment however, interest income increased through higher average balances in 2010 compared to 2009, along with a disciplined approach to loan pricing and an increase in commercial real estate lending. Finally, our provision for loan losses expense was higher in 2010 than in 2009, reflecting the continued challenges of the economy both nationally and in the markets where we do business. The Bank achieved net income of $1.3 million in 2010 compared to a $614,000 loss in 2009.

Grow our franchise and meet competition in our market through relationship banking with businesses and retail consumers. We operate with a service-oriented approach to banking by meeting our customers’ needs and emphasizing the delivery of a consistent and high-quality level of professional service. The Bank remains focused on deepening relationships with existing customers and forging new relationships through our reputation and word of mouth referrals. We continue to expand our business by cross-selling our loan and deposit products and services to our customers and emphasizing our traditional strengths, which include residential mortgages, consumer lending, small business lending and generating core deposits. In addition, we will continue to sell a portion of our residential mortgage production to Fannie Mae on a servicing retained basis. This allows us to maintain our customer relationship while also having the funds from the sale of the loans available to make additional mortgage loans. Our attention to client service and competitive rates allow us to attract and retain deposit and loan customers. We acquired two branches in 2009 from 1st Security Bank of Washington. One of the branches acquired was located in Port Angeles, Washington and the other in Tacoma, Washington. We opened a new branch facility in Port Angeles and consolidated the deposit and loan accounts which were acquired into the new facility. We consolidated the operations of our former Lakewood branch into the new Tacoma facility. We closed our East Marginal Way branch in March 2010 and do not not have plans for branch expansion in 2012.

Emphasizing lower cost core deposits to reduce the funding costs of our loan growth. We offer personal and business checking accounts, NOW accounts and savings and money market accounts, which generally are lower-cost sources of funds than certificates of deposits, and are less sensitive to withdrawal when interest rates fluctuate. In order to build our core deposit base, we are pursuing a number of strategies. We continue to provide sales incentives on savings and checking accounts to encourage the growth of these types of deposits. We require all commercial loan customers to maintain a deposit relationship with us, generally a business checking account

relationship to the extent practicable, for the term of their loans. We have made, and will continue to make available preferential loan and time deposit pricing to customers who maintain a qualifying relationship at the Company. We also continue to accept public funds from local public agencies; however we have limited new relationships to public agencies in our local markets. We lowered our weighted average cost of funds in 2010 by 97 basis points compared to 2009. This decrease was the result of lower market rates on deposits and higher percentage of deposits in low or noninterest-bearing accounts during the year.

Growing and diversifying our loan portfolio by emphasizing the origination of one- to four-family residential mortgage, home equity, commercial real estate, commercial business, and consumer loans. Our infrastructure, personnel and fixed operating base can support a substantially larger asset base. Our strategy for increasing net income includes increasing our loan originations, particularly with higher yielding commercial and consumer loans. Our business plan emphasizes the origination of loans secured by residential real estate and loans for business purposes, including commercial real estate loans. We have utilized our increased capital level resulting from the 2008 offering to make larger commercial real estate and business loans to meet the demand for these loan products in our primary market area. Commercial real estate loans and commercial business loans generally are originated with higher interest rates compared to one- to four-family residential mortgage loans and, therefore, have a positive effect on our net interest rate spread and net interest income. In addition, most of these loans are originated with adjustable interest rates, which assist us in managing interest rate risk.

Maintaining high asset quality. We have worked to improve asset quality in recent years, through managing credit risk, however, economic conditions including high unemployment rates continue to contribute to higher nonperforming assets. Our percentage of non-performing assets to total assets decreased to 2.96% at December 31, 2010 from 3.68% at December 31, 2009. At the same time, our net charge-offs to average loans outstanding increased from 0.75% to 1.21%. See note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financials Statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K annual report for more details on our asset quality. We introduce new loan products when we are confident that our staff has the necessary expertise and that sound underwriting and collection procedures are in place. We also underwrite all of our loans centrally to ensure uniformity and consistency in underwriting decisions

Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009

General. Total assets decreased by $3.2 million, or 0.9%, to $334.6 million at December 31, 2010 from $337.8 million at December 31, 2009. The decrease was primarily the result of a $8.5 million, or 3.0% increase in our net loan portfolio, which was primarily funded by a $6.6 million, or 42.0%, decrease in cash and $5.4 million, or 54.1%, decrease in available-for-sale securities during 2010.

Cash and Securities. We decreased our liquidity position significantly in 2010, which had increased significantly in 2009 due to decreased loan demand and liquid assets received in the 1st Security Bank branch acquisitions as well as a result of our concerns about the depressed economy.

Cash, cash equivalents and our available-for-sale securities decreased $11.9, or 46.7%, to $13.6 million at December 31, 2010. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $6.6 million, or 42.0%, to $9.1 million at December 31, 2010, as liquid funds were used to fund increased loan production. Available-for-sale securities, which consists primarily of agency and non-agency mortgage-backed securities, decreased by $5.4 million, or 54.1%, from $9.9 million at December 31, 2009 to $4.5 million at December 31, 2010. This decrease reflects investment sales and other-than-temporary impairments on our non-agency mortgage-backed security portfolio.

At December 31, 2010, $4.5 million of our available-for-sale securities portfolio consisted of non-agency mortgage-backed securities. These securities present a higher credit risk than U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities, of which we had $61,000 at December 31, 2010. In order to monitor the increased risk, management receives and reviews a credit surveillance report from a third party quarterly, which evaluates these securities based on a number of factors, including original credit scores, loan-to-value ratios, geographic locations, delinquencies and loss histories of the underlying mortgage loans, in order to project future losses based on various home price depreciation scenarios over a three-year horizon. Based on these reports, management ascertains the appropriate value for these securities and, in 2010, recorded an other-than-temporary impairment charge of $99,000 on two of these non-agency securities. See “Note 4 - Investments to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in Item 8

for more information about this recorded impairment. The current market environment significantly limits our ability to mitigate our exposure to value changes in these more risky securities by selling them, and we do not anticipate these conditions changing significantly in 2011. Accordingly, if the market and economic environment impacting the loans supported these securities continue to deteriorate, we could determine that an other-than-temporary impairment must be recorded on these securities, as well as on any other securities in our portfolio, our future earnings, equity, regulatory capital and ongoing operations could be materially adversely affected.

Our investment portfolio at December 31, 2010, also included $2.4 million in Federal Home Loan Bank stock, which we are required to own in order to obtain advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle. Federal Home Loan Bank stock is carried at par and does not have a readily determinable fair value. Ownership of Federal Home Loan Bank stock is restricted to the Federal Home Loan Bank member institutions, and can only be purchased and redeemed at par of $100. Due to ongoing turmoil in the capital and mortgage markets, the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle has a risk-based capital deficiency largely as a result of write-downs on its private label mortgage-backed securities portfolios. Management evaluates our Federal Home Loan Bank stock for potential impairment. Management’s determination of whether this investment is impaired is based on its assessment of the ultimate recoverability of cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of cost is influenced by criteria such as: (1) the significance of any decline in net assets of the Federal Home Loan Bank as compared to the capital stock amount for the Federal Home Loan Bank and the length of time this situation has persisted; (2) commitments by the Federal Home Loan Bank to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the Federal Home Loan Bank; (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, the customer base of the Federal Home Loan Bank; and (4) the liquidity position of the Federal Home Loan Bank. Under Federal Housing Finance Agency regulations, a Federal Home Loan Bank that fails to meet any regulatory capital requirement may not declare a dividend or redeem or repurchase capital stock in excess of what is required for members’ current loans. The Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle has announced that it had as of December 31, 2008 and continues to have a risk-based capital deficiency under those regulations and, as a result, has suspended future dividends and the repurchase or redemption of its common stock. Therefore, we have received no dividends on our Federal Home Loan Bank stock since 2008. The Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle has communicated that it believes the calculation of its risk-based capital under applicable regulations overstates the market risk of its non-agency mortgage-backed securities and that it has enough capital to cover the risks reflected in its balance sheet. In addition, according to Standard and Poor’s analysis of the Federal Home Loan Banks, the Federal Home Loan Bank System has a special public status (organized under the Federal Home Loan Bank Act of 1932) and may receive extraordinary support from the U.S. Treasury in a crisis. Therefore, the Federal Home Loan Banks can be considered an extension of the government and the U.S. government would almost certainly support the credit obligations of the Federal Home Loan Bank system. Based on this, we have determined there is not an other-than-temporary impairment on our Federal Home Loan Bank stock investment as of December 31, 2010. However, continued deterioration in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle’s financial condition may result in impairment in the value of our Federal Home Loan Bank stock. On October 25, 2010, the Federal Home Loan Bank entered into a consent order with its primary regulator; however, the impact of that order on its conditions or operations over time is unknown. We will continue to monitor the financial condition of the Federal Home Loan Bank as it relates to, among other things, the recoverability of our investment in its stock.

Loans. Our gross loan portfolio, including loans held for sale, increased $7.5 million, or 2.6%, from $292.7 million at December 31, 2009 to $300.1 million at December 31, 2010. Loans held for sale decreased from $2.9 million at December 31, 2009, to $902,000 at December 31, 2010, reflecting primarily the timing of transactions in late 2010, as compared to late 2009.

The following table reflects the changes in the types of loans, including loans held for sale, in our portfolio at the end of 2010 as compared to the end of 2009.

	At December 31,
	2010		2009		Amount Change			Percent Change
	(Dollars in thousands)
One- to four- family mortgages	$	99,215	$	107,318	$	(8,103	)		(7.6	)%
One- to four- family home equity		44,829		50,445		(5,616	)		(11.1	)%
Multifamily residential		30,887		19,660		11,227			57.1	%
Commercial real estate		66,337		52,375		13,962			26.7	%
Land and construction		12,479		10,000		2,479			24.8	%
Commercial business		14,678		17,800		(3,122	)		(17.5	)%
Consumer		32,153		35,418		(3,265	)		(9.2	)%
Total	$	300,578	$	293,016	$	7,562			2.6	%

The most significant changes in our loan portfolio include the increases in our commercial real estate portfolio, multifamily mortgages and land and construction loans. The increases in commercial real estate and multifamily housing loans is consistent with our operating strategy of growing and diversifying our loan portfolio. The increases in land and construction loans reflects an increase in residential construction loans, primarily to well qualified individuals for the construction of a primary residence. The decrease in our home equity and commercial business portfolios are a result of lower demand in the current economic environment.

Mortgage Servicing Rights. At December 31, 2010, we had $3.2 million in mortgage servicing rights recorded at fair value. At December 31, 2009, we had a total of $3.3 million in mortgage servicing rights of which $2.0 million was recorded at fair value and $1.3 million was recorded at cost. On January 1, 2010, the Company elected to adopt the fair value measurement method for mortgage servicing rights. Management believes that this method better represents the ongoing market value of the servicing asset. We record mortgage servicing rights on loans sold to Fannie Mae with servicing retained. The Bank stratifies its capitalized mortgage servicing rights based on the type, term and interest rates of the underlying loans. If our mortgage servicing rights were determined to be impaired, our financial results would be negatively impacted.

Delinquencies and Non-performing Assets. As of December 31, 2010, our total loans delinquent for 60 to 89 days was $507,000 or 0.17% of total gross loans.

At December 31, 2010, our nonperforming assets totaled $9.9 million, or 2.96% of total assets, compared to $12.4 million, or 3.68% of total assets at December 31, 2009. This $2.5 million, or 20.1% decrease is the result of increased credit administration efforts. While nonperforming assets decreased in 2010, net charge-offs have increased primarily as a result of the continued economic issues, particularly continued high unemployment rates in our markets.

The table below sets forth the amounts and categories of non-performing assets in our loan portfolio at the dates indicated.

	Non-performing Assets at December 31,
	2010		2009		Amount Change			Percent Change
	(Dollars in thousands)
Nonaccruing loans	$	2,898	$	3,607	$	(709	)		19.7	%
Restructured loans		4,396		7,649		(3,253	)		(42.5	)
OREO and other repossessed assets		2,625		1,384		1,241			89.7
Total	$	9,919	$	12,640	$	(2,721	)		(21.5	)%

Non-performing loans to total loans decreased to 2.44% of total loans at the end of 2010 from 3.21% at the end of 2009. This decrease reflects lower levels of restructured loans and lower nonaccruing loans. Our largest non-performing assets at December 31, 2010, consisted of an $860,000 commercial development loan secured by a mobile home park, a $442,000 commercial real estate loan secured by a commercial building and a $342,000 mortgage loan secured by a single family residence. We do not expect any material losses on these nonperforming assets in 2011. We had no other non-performing loans in excess of $340,000 at year-end.

Foreclosed assets increased during 2010 primarily due to depressed economic conditions in our market. During the year, we repossessed ten personal residences, two commercial properties and 11 other repossessed assets, including manufactured homes and automobiles, and we sold four personal residences and 17 other repossessed assets at an aggregate loss of $461,000. We do not expect any further material losses on these repossessed assets in 2011.

In addition to the non-performing assets set forth in the table above, as of December 31, 2010, there was an aggregate of $4.4 million in loans with respect to which known information about the possible credit problems of the borrowers have caused management to have doubts as to the abilities of the borrowers to comply with present loan repayment terms and which may result in the future inclusion of such items in the non-performing asset categories. Due to current economic conditions, we have seen an increase in the amount of these loans during 2010.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is maintained to cover losses that are probable and can be estimated on the date of the evaluation in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. It is our estimate of probable incurred credit losses in our loan portfolio.

Our methodology for analyzing the allowance for loan losses consists of specific and general components. We stratify the loan portfolio into homogeneous groups of loans that possess similar loss-potential characteristics and apply an appropriate loss ratio to the homogeneous pools of loans to estimate the incurred losses in the loan portfolio. The amount of loan losses incurred in our consumer portfolio is estimated by using historical loss ratios for major loan collateral types adjusted for current factors. The historical loss experience is generally defined as an average percentage of net loan losses to loans outstanding. A separate valuation of known losses for individual classified large-balance, non-homogeneous loans is also conducted in accordance with ASC Topic 310. The allowance for loan losses on individually analyzed loans includes commercial business loans and one- to four-family and commercial real estate loans, where management has concerns about the borrower’s ability to repay. Loss estimates include the difference between the current fair value of the collateral and the loan amount due.

Our allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2010 was $4.4 million, or 1.50% of net loans receivable, compared to $3.5 million, or 1.18% of net loans receivable at December 31, 2009. The $969,000, or 27.9%, increase in the allowance for loan losses reflects the $4.7 million provision for loan losses established during 2010, as a result of increases in our commercial and residential loan portfolios during the year and an evaluation of declining housing and other market conditions in our market area and our $3.7 million in net charge-offs on non-performing loans.

The following table reflects the adjustments in our allowance during 2010 and 2009:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2010			2009
	(Dollars in thousands)
Balance at beginning of period	$	3,468		$	1,306
Charge-offs		3,944			2,272
Recoveries:		262			159
Net charge-offs		3,682			2,113
Provisions charged to operations		4,650			4,275
Balance at end of period	$	4,436		$	3,468

Ratio of net charge-offs during the period to average loans outstanding during the period		1.21	%		0.75	%

Allowance as a percentage of non- performing loans		60.82	%		30.81	%

Allowance as a percentage of total loans (end of period)		1.48	%		1.18	%

Specific loan loss reserves decreased $307,000, while general loan loss reserves have increased $822,000. The higher general provision was primarily attributable to increases in net charge-offs, increases in our commercial loan balances, an increase in our overall loan balances and the current market conditions nationally and in our market area. Net charge-offs for the year ended December 31, 2010 were $3.7 million, or 1.21% of average loans on an annualized basis, compared to $2.3 million, or 0.75% of average loans for 2009. The increase was primarily due to increased charge-offs on one-to-four family mortgages, commercial real estate and business loans and consumer loans resulting from the depressed economic conditions in our market area. As of December 31, 2010, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans receivable and non-performing loans was 1.48% and 60.82%, respectively, compared to 1.18% and 30.81%, respectively, at December 31, 2009. Allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans receivable increased due to the $375,000 increase in provision expense and a decline in number of loans specifically reserved for. Allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-performing loans decreased due to an decrease in non-performing loans of $3.7 million which was offset by the $968,000 increase in the allowance.

Deposits. Total deposits decreased by $9.1 million, or 3.2%, to $278.5 million at December 31, 2010 from $287.6 million at December 31, 2009. During 2010, a $1.9 million increase in noninterest-bearing demand and savings accounts was offset by an aggregate $15.9 million decrease in NOW, money market and certificate of deposit accounts. The decrease in our interest bearing accounts was

Total	$	278,494	1.03	%	$	287,564	1.60	%

Borrowings. Federal Home Loan Bank advances increased $4.8 million, or 24.3%, to $24.8 million at December 31, 2010, with a weighted-average yield of 2.52%, from $20.0 million at December 31, 2009, with a weighted-average yield of 3.12%. We continue to rely on Federal Home Loan Bank advances to fund interest earning asset growth when deposit growth is insufficient to fund such growth. This reliance on borrowings, rather than deposits, may increase our overall cost of funds. We increased reliance on these borrowings during 2010 as the result of a decrease in total deposits.

Equity. Total equity increased $1.8 million, or 7.2%, to $26.9 million at December 31, 2010, from $25.1 million at December 31, 2009. This primarily reflects $1.3 million in income, net of tax, as well as decreases in accumulated other comprehensive losses of $268,000 and partially offset by $27,000 in dividends paid.

Rate/Volume Analysis

The following schedule presents the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for major components of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. It distinguishes between the changes related to outstanding balances and that due to the changes in interest rates. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to (i) changes in volume (i.e., changes in volume multiplied by old rate) and (ii) changes in rate (i.e., changes in rate multiplied by old volume). For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

The decrease in prevailing market interest rates along with maturities of over $88.6 million in certificates of deposit during 2010 contributed to the significant decrease in our weighted average cost of funds between 2009 and 2010.

Comparison of Results of Operation for the Year Ended December 31, 2010 and 2009

General. Net income increased $1.9 million to $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared with a net loss of $614,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. The primary reason for this improvement was significant decreases in interest expense, which was offset by increases in the provision for loan losses expense and federal income tax expense.

Interest Income. Interest income increased by $186,000, or 1.0%, to $19.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, from $19.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase in interest income for the period reflects the increased amount of loans outstanding during the 2010 period, which was offset by reduced investment balances and related investment income.

The weighted average yield on loans decreased from 6.42% for the year ended December 31, 2009, to 6.19% for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease was primarily the result of the continued historically low rate environment throughout the year. The decrease in the weighted average yield on loans, however, was tempered by the increase in commercial loans, which typically have higher yields, as a percentage of the entire loan portfolio and an increase in the origination of single-family mortgage loans from the levels in 2009. The weighted average yield on investments was 6.21% for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to 5.21% for the same period during 2009, reflecting lower average balances of agency mortgage-backed securities, which produced a lower yield than the non-agency mortgage-backed securities that remained in our portfolio throughout the year.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $2.8 million, or 39.2%, to $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, from $7.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. This decrease reflects overall lower interest rates paid on deposits, particularly certificates of deposit, and Federal Home Loan Bank advances notwithstanding an increase in the average balances of deposits during the period. Our weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 1.39% for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to 2.38% for the same period in 2009.

Interest paid on deposits decreased $2.4 million, or 39.6% to $3.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, from $6.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. This decrease resulted from a decrease in the weighted average cost of deposits, which was offset by a $18.8 million increase in the average balance of deposits outstanding for the period. We experienced a 100 basis point decrease in the average rate paid on deposits during the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. This decrease in average rates was a result of repricing of matured certificate deposits that the Bank was able to retain at significantly lower rates as well as lower interest rates paid on existing savings, interest bearing checking and money market accounts and an emphasis by the Bank on attracting lower-cost product types such as savings, checking and money market accounts versus certificates of deposit.

Interest expense on borrowings decreased $347,000, or 37.2%, to $587,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 from $934,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. The decrease resulted from a decrease of 99 basis points in our cost of borrowings from 3.12% in the 2009 period to 2.50% in the 2010 period, notwithstanding a $6.4 million, or 21.5% decrease in our average balance of outstanding borrowings at the Federal Home Loan Bank.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $3.0 million, or 24.5% to $15.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, from $12.1 million for the year ended December 2009. The increase in net interest income for the 2010 period primarily resulted from the increased average amount of loans outstanding during the year and the significantly lower rates on deposits and borrowings. Our net interest margin was 4.82% for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to 3.99% for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Provision for Loan Losses. We establish provisions for loan losses, which are charged to earnings, at a level required to reflect management’s best estimate of the probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers historical loss experience, the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect borrowers’ ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, peer group data, prevailing economic conditions, and current factors. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as residential real estate, small commercial real estate, home equity and consumer loans, are evaluated in the aggregate using historical loss factors adjusted for current economic conditions and other relevant data. Loans for which management has concerns about the borrowers’ ability to repay, are evaluated individually, and specific loss allocations are provided for these loans when necessary.

A provision of $4.7 million was made during the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to provision of $4.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2009. The higher provision was primarily attributable to increases in net charge-offs, increases in our commercial loan balances, an increase in our overall loan balances and the declining market conditions nationally and in our market area. The Company believes that while levels have stabilized, higher levels of nonperforming assets and charge-offs will continue until the housing market, unemployment, and general economic market conditions further recover.

At December 31, 2009, the annualized percentage of net charge-offs to average loans increased 46 basis points to 1.21% from 0.75% at December 31, 2009. The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans decreased from 3.68% at December 31, 2009 to 2.96% at December 31, 2010. See “- Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 -- Delinquencies and Non-Performing Assets” for more information on non-performing loans in 2010.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased $11,000, or 0.3%, to $3.9 million during 2010, compared to $3.9 million during 2009 as reflected below:

	Year Ended December 31,						Amount			Percent
	2010			2009			Change			Change
Service charges fee income	$	2,182		$	2,081		$	101			4.9	%
Mortgage servicing income		624			867			(243	)		(28.0	)%
Fair value adjustment on mortgage servicing rights		103			125			(22	)		(17.6	)%
Other-than-temporary impairment losses on securities		(99	)		(61	)		(38	)		62.3	%
Gain on bargain purchase of branches		--			227			(227	)		(100.0	)%
Gain on sale of loans and securities		849			430			419			97.4	%
Earnings on cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance		266			268			(2	)		(0.7	)%

Mortgage servicing income decreased as the result of an acceleration of the amortization of acquired and capitalized mortgage servicing rights due to a higher than anticipated level of loan payoffs during the year. The fair value adjustment on mortgage servicing rights was also impacted by the low rate environment, which led to faster prepayment speeds, which directly impact the market value. Other than temporary impairment was $37,000 higher in 2010 than in 2009 as the result of continued deteriorating housing market conditions during the period. Gain on sale of loans and securities was $419,000 higher in 2010 than in 2009 as the result of a decreasing rate environment for 30 year mortgages during 2010, which enabled the bank to sell conforming one-to-four family mortgage loans on the secondary market at a premium

Noninterest Expense. Non-interest expense decreased $385,000, or 3.0%, to $12.4 million during 2010 compared to $12.8 million during 2009, as reflected below:

	Year Ended December 31,				Amount			Percent
	2010		2009		Change			Change
Salaries and benefits	$	5,864	$	5,700	$	164			2.9	%
Operations		3,035		3,724		(689	)		(18.5	)%
Net loss on other real estate owned and repossessed assets		461		627		(166	)		(26.5	)%
Regulatory assessments		851		677		174			25.7	%
Occupancy		1,334		1,177		157			13.3	%
Data processing		880		905		(25	)		(2.8	)%

Operations expense decreased during the period as the result of lower collection expense in 2010 compared to 2009. This was due to a lower volume of new delinquencies along with efforts by management to reduce expenses in this area. In addition, the Bank had lower legal, professional and marketing expense during the period. The expenses in these categories were more than $550,000 lower in 2010 than in 2009. The loss on sale of repossessed assets reflected somewhat improving prices for these assets coupled with more conservative valuation estimates made by management at the time of repossession. Regulatory expenses were higher due to the increase in OTS and FDIC assessments imposed by these agencies in 2010. Occupancy expense was higher as the result of scheduled increases on certain leased properties along with higher leasehold improvement expense related to the new branch facility in Port Angeles.

Income Tax Expense. For the year ended December 31, 2010, we had an income tax expense of $545,000 on our pre-tax income as compared to income tax benefit of $465,000 on a pre-tax loss for the year ended December 31, 2009. The effective tax rates for December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 were 28.6% and 22.5%, respectively.

Liquidity

Liquidity management is both a daily and longer-term function of the management of the Company and the Bank. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments, such as overnight deposits and federal funds. On a longer term basis, we maintain a strategy of investing in various lending products and investment securities, including mortgage-backed securities. The Bank uses its sources of funds primarily to meet its ongoing commitments, pay maturing deposits, fund deposit withdrawals and fund loan commitments.

We maintain cash and investments that qualify as liquid assets to maintain adequate liquidity to ensure safe and sound operation and meet demands for funds (particularly withdrawals of deposits). At December 31, 2010, the Bank had $13.6 million in cash and investment securities available for sale and $902,000 in loans held for sale generally available for its cash needs. We can also generate funds from borrowings, primarily Federal Home Loan Bank advances. At December 31, 2010, the Bank had the ability to borrow an additional $94.6 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances, subject to certain collateral requirements. We have access to additional borrowings of $24.9 million through the Federal Reserve’s Discount Window, subject to certain collateral requirements and $2.0 million through an unsecured line of credit at Pacific Coast Banker’s Bank.

We are required to have enough cash and investments that qualify as liquid assets in order to maintain sufficient liquidity to ensure safe and sound operations. Liquidity may increase or decrease depending upon the availability of funds and comparative yields on investments in relation to the return on loans. Historically, we have maintained liquid assets above levels believed to be adequate to meet the requirements of normal operations, including potential deposit outflows. Cash flow projections are regularly reviewed and updated to assure that adequate liquidity is maintained.

Liquidity management involves the matching of cash flow requirements of customers, who may be either depositors desiring to withdraw funds or borrowers needing assurance that sufficient funds will be available to meet their credit needs and the ability of the Bank to manage those requirements. The Bank strives to maintain an adequate liquidity position by managing the balances and maturities of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities so that the balance it has in short-term investments at any given time will cover adequately any reasonably anticipated, immediate need for funds. Additionally, the Bank maintains relationships with correspondent banks, which could provide funds on short-term notice if needed. Our liquidity, represented by cash and cash-equivalents, is a product of our operating, investing and financing activities.

The Company is a separate legal entity from the Bank and must provide for its own liquidity. In addition to its own operating expenses (many of which are paid to the Bank), the Company is responsible for paying any dividends declared to its shareholders, and interest and principal on outstanding debt. The Company’s primary source of funds are Bank dividends, which are subject to regulatory limits. At December 31, 2010, the Company, on an unconsolidated basis, had $400,000 in cash, interest-bearing deposits and liquid investments generally available for its cash needs.

Our liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents and investment securities, is a product of our operating, investing and financing activities. Our primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization, prepayments and maturities of outstanding loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investment securities and other short-term investments and funds provided from operations. While scheduled payments from the amortization of loans and mortgage-backed securities and maturing investment securities and short-term investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, which provide liquidity to meet lending requirements. We also generate cash through borrowings. We utilize Federal Home Loan Bank advances to leverage our capital base and provide funds for our lending and investment activities, and to enhance our interest rate risk management.

We use our sources of funds primarily to meet ongoing commitments, pay maturing deposits and fund withdrawals, and to fund loan commitments. At December 31, 2010, the approved outstanding loan commitments, including unused lines and letters of credit, amounted to $39.0 million. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at December 31, 2010, totaled $83.0 million. It is management’s policy to manage deposit rates

that are competitive with other local financial institutions. Based on this management strategy, we believe that a majority of maturing deposits will remain with the Company. See also the consolidated statements of cash flows for further information.

Except as set forth above, management is not aware of any trends, events, or uncertainties that will have, or that are reasonably likely to have a material impact on liquidity, capital resources or operations. Further, management is not aware of any current recommendations by regulatory agencies which, if they were to be implemented, would have this effect.

Off-Balance Sheet Activities

In the normal course of operations, the Company engages in a variety of financial transactions that are not recorded in our financial statements. These transactions involve varying degrees of off-balance sheet credit, interest rate and liquidity risks. These transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments and lines of credit. For the year ended December 31, 2010, we engaged in no off-balance sheet transactions likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. A summary of our off-balance sheet loan commitments at December 31, 2010, is as follows (in thousands):

Off-balance sheet loan commitments:
Commitments to make loans	$	4,624
Undisbursed portion of loans closed		3,972
Unused lines of credit		30,112
Irrevocable letters of credit		265
Total loan commitments	$	38,973

Capital

The Bank is subject to minimum capital requirements imposed by regulations of the OTS. Based on its capital levels at December 31, 2010, the Bank exceeded these requirements as of that date and continues to exceed them as of the date of this Form 10-K Annual Report. Consistent with our goals to operate a sound and profitable organization, our policy is for the Bank to maintain a “well-capitalized” status under the regulatory capital categories of the OTS. Based on capital levels at December 31, 2010, the Bank was considered to be well-capitalized. The Bank has agreed in its MOU to reach as of March 31, 2011, and retain thereafter, 8% core capital and 12% total risk-based capital, which levels are greater than that required by OTS regulations or necessary for well-capitalized status. Management monitors the capital levels of the Bank to provide for current and future business opportunities, maintain “well-capitalized” status and reach the required levels in the MOU.

The following table shows the capital ratios of the Bank at December 31, 2010.

	Actual		Minimum Capital Requirements				Minimum Required to Be Well-Capitalized Under Prompt Corrective Action Provisions			Minimum Required Under MOU by March 31, 2011

Impact of Inflation

The effects of price changes and inflation can vary substantially for most financial institutions. While management believes that inflation affects the growth of total assets, it believes that it is difficult to assess the overall impact. Management believes this to be the case due to the fact that generally neither the timing nor the magnitude of the inflationary changes in the consumer price index (“CPI”) coincides with changes in interest rates. The price of one or more of the components of the CPI may fluctuate considerably and thereby influence the overall CPI without having a corresponding affect on interest rates or upon the cost of those goods and services normally purchased by the Company. In years of high inflation and high interest rates, intermediate and long-term interest rates tend to increase, thereby adversely impacting the market values of investment securities, mortgage loans and other long-term fixed rate loans. In addition, higher short-term interest rates caused by inflation tend to increase the cost of funds. In other years, the opposite may occur.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Asset/Liability Management

Our Risk When Interest Rates Change. The rates of interest we earn on assets and pay on liabilities generally are established contractually for a period of time. Market rates change over time. Like other financial institutions, our results of operations are impacted by changes in interest rates and the interest rate sensitivity of our assets and liabilities. The risk associated with changes in interest rates and our ability to adapt to these changes is known as interest rate risk and is our most significant market risk.

How We Measure Our Risk of Interest Rate Changes. As part of our attempt to manage our exposure to changes in interest rates and comply with applicable regulations, we monitor our interest rate risk. In doing so, we analyze and manage assets and liabilities based on their interest rates and payment streams, timing of maturities, repricing opportunities, and sensitivity to actual or potential changes in market interest rates.

The Bank is subject to interest rate risk to the extent that its interest-bearing liabilities, primarily deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank advances, reprice more rapidly or at different rates than its interest-earning assets. In order to minimize the potential for adverse effects of material prolonged increases or decreases in interest rates on our results of operations, we have adopted an asset and liability management policy. The board of directors sets the asset and liability policy for the Bank, which is implemented by the asset/liability committee.

The purpose of the asset/liability committee is to communicate, coordinate, and control asset/liability management consistent with our business plan and board-approved policies. The committee establishes and monitors the volume and mix of assets and funding sources, taking into account relative costs and spreads, interest rate sensitivity and liquidity needs. The objectives are to manage assets and funding sources to produce results that are consistent with liquidity, capital adequacy, growth, risk and profitability goals.

The committee generally meets monthly to, among other things, protect capital through earnings stability over the interest rate cycle; maintain our well-capitalized status; and provide a reasonable return on investment. The committee recommends appropriate strategy changes based on this review. The committee is responsible for reviewing and reporting the effects of the policy implementations and strategies to the board of directors at least quarterly. Senior managers oversee the process on a daily basis.

A key element of the Bank’s asset/liability management plan is to protect net earnings by managing the maturity or repricing mismatch between its interest-earning assets and rate-sensitive liabilities. We seek to reduce exposure to earnings by extending funding maturities through the use of Federal Home Loan Bank advances, through the use of adjustable rate loans and through the sale of certain fixed rate loans in the secondary market.

As part of its efforts to monitor and manage interest rate risk, the Bank uses the net portfolio value (“NPV”) methodology adopted by the OTS as part of its capital regulations. In essence, this approach calculates the difference between the present value of expected cash flows from assets and liabilities. Management and the board of directors review NPV measurements on a quarterly basis to determine whether the Bank’s interest rate exposure is within the limits established by the board of directors.

The Bank’s asset/liability management strategy dictates acceptable limits on the amounts of change in given changes in interest rates. For interest rate increases of 100, 200, and 300 basis points, our policy dictates that our NPV ratio should not fall below 7%, 7%, and 5%, respectively. As illustrated in the table below, we were in compliance with this aspect of our asset/liability management policy at December 31, 2010.

The table presented below, as of December 31, 2010 (the latest available information), is an internal analysis of our interest rate risk as measured by changes in NPV for instantaneous and sustained parallel shifts in the yield curve, in 100 basis point increments, up 300 basis points and down 100 basis points as any further decline in rates is unlikely.

As illustrated in the table below, the Bank would benefit from a decrease in market rates of interest. Our NPV would be negatively impacted by an increase in interest rates. An increase in rates would negatively impact our NPV as a result of deposit accounts and Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings repricing more rapidly than loans and securities due to the fixed rate nature of a large portion of our loan and security portfolios. As rates rise, the market value of fixed rate assets declines due to both the rate increases and slowing prepayments.

December 31, 2010
Change in Interest Rates in	Net Portfolio Value			NPV
Basis Points	$ Amount	$ Change	% Change	Ratio %
(Dollars in thousands)
+300bp	34,134	(7,867)	10.04%	-190bp
+200bp	37,346	(4,655)	10.84%	-109bp
+100bp	40,057	(1,944	11.49%	-44bp
0bp	42,001
-50bp	42,478	477	12.03%	+10bp
-100bp	44,652	2,651	12.56%	+62bp

In addition to monitoring selected measures of NPV, management also monitors effects on net interest income resulting from increases or decrease in rates. This process is used in conjunction with NPV measures to identify excessive interest rate risk. In managing our assets/liability mix, depending on the relationship between long and short term interest rates, market conditions and consumer preference, we may place somewhat greater emphasis on maximizing its net interest margin than on strictly matching the interest rate sensitivity of its assets and liabilities. Management also believes that the increased net income which may result from an acceptable mismatch in the actual maturity or repricing of its asset and liability portfolios can, during periods of declining or stable interest rates, provide sufficient returns to justify the increased exposure to sudden and unexpected increases in interest rates which may result from such a mismatch. Management believes that the Bank’s level of interest rate risk is acceptable under this approach.

In evaluating the Bank’s exposure to interest rate movements, certain shortcomings inherent in the method of analysis presented in the foregoing table must be considered. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or repricing periods, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in interest rates. Additionally, certain assets, such as adjustable rate mortgages, have features which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. Further, in the event of a significant change in interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels would likely deviate significantly from those assumed above. Finally, the ability of many borrowers to service their debt may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase. The Company considers all of these factors in monitoring its exposure to interest rate risk.

The information provided in the table above is calculated using a model developed by the Office of Thrift Supervision. This model will be available through the March 31, 2012 reporting cycle. Management will continue to use this model through the March 31, 2010 period. Management is currently evaluating alternative methods for evaluating interest rate risk.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

Sound Financial, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Sound Financial, Inc. and Subsidiary (the Company) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2010. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Sound Financial, Inc and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the two years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 - Organization and significant accounting policies

Sound Financial, Inc. (the “Company”) is a federally chartered stock holding company and is subject to regulation by the Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”). Sound Financial, Inc. was organized on January 8, 2008, as part of Sound Community Bank’s (the “Bank”) reorganization into the mutual holding company form of organization. As part of the reorganization, Sound Community Bank (i) converted to a stock savings bank as the successor to Sound Community Bank in its mutual form (which was originally chartered as a credit union in 1953); (ii) organized Sound Financial, Inc., which owns 100% of the common stock of Sound Community Bank; and (iii) organized Sound Community MHC, a federal mutual holding company (the “MHC”), which currently owns 54% of the common stock of Sound Financial, Inc. The MHC has no other activities or operations other than its ownership of Sound Financial, Inc. Sound Community Bank succeeded to the business and operations of the Company in its mutual form and Sound Financial, Inc. has no significant assets other than all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Sound Community Bank, its loan to the Sound Financial, Inc.’s Employee Stock Ownership Plan, and certain liquid assets.

In connection with the above-mentioned reorganization, Sound Financial sold 1,297,148 shares of common stock in a subscription offering that closed on January 8, 2008. Those shares constitute 44% of the outstanding shares of common stock of Sound Financial. Sound Financial also issued 29,480 shares of common stock to Sound Community Foundation, a charitable foundation created by Sound Community Bank in connection with the mutual holding Company reorganization and subscription offering. The remaining 1,621,435 shares of common stock of Sound Financial outstanding were issued in accordance with federal law to the MHC.

Substantially all of Sound Financial’s business is conducted through the Bank, which is a federal savings bank subject to extensive regulation by the OTS. Sound Community Bank’s deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The shares of Sound Financial are traded on the Over-the-Counter Electronic Bulletin Board under the symbol “SNFL.” Our executive offices are located at 2005 5th Avenue – Suite 200, Seattle, Washington, 98121.

Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, mortgage servicing rights, other real estate owned, and deferred taxes.

Cash and cash equivalents - For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and amounts due from banks. Cash equivalents have an original maturity of three months or less and may exceed federally insured limits.

Securities available-for-sale - Securities available-for-sale consist of debt securities that the Company has the intent and ability to hold for an indefinite period, but not necessarily to maturity. Such securities may be sold to implement the Company’s asset/liability management strategies and in response to changes in interest rates and similar factors. Securities available-for-sale are reported at fair value.

SOUND FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Unrealized gains and losses, net of the related deferred tax effect, are reported as a net amount in a separate component of equity entitled “accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax.” Realized gains and losses on securities available-for-sale, determined using the specific identification method, are included in earnings. Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts are recognized as adjustments to interest income.

We review investment securities on an ongoing basis for the presence of other-than-temporary (“OTTI”) or permanent impairment, taking into consideration current market conditions, fair value in relation to cost, extent and nature of the change in fair value, issuer rating changes and trends, whether we intend to sell a security or if it is likely that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of our amortized cost basis of the investment, which may be maturity, and other factors. For debt securities, if we intend to sell the security or it is likely that we will be required to sell the security before recovering its cost basis, the entire impairment loss would be recognized in earnings as an OTTI. If we do not intend to sell the security and it is not likely that we will be required to sell the security but we do not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security, only the portion of the impairment loss representing credit losses would be recognized in earnings. The credit loss on a security is measured as the difference between the amortized cost basis and the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected. Projected cash flows are discounted by the original or current effective interest rate depending on the nature of the security being measured for potential OTTI. The remaining impairment related to all other factors, the difference between the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected and the fair value, is recognized as a charge to other comprehensive income (“OCI”). Impairment losses related to all other factors are presented as separate categories within OCI. We do not intend to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell the securities before anticipated recovery of the remaining amortized cost basis. We closely monitor our investment securities for changes in credit risk. The current market environment significantly limits our ability to mitigate our exposure to valuation changes in these securities by selling them. Accordingly, if market conditions deteriorate further and we determine our holdings of these or other investment securities are OTTI, our future earnings, shareholders’ equity, regulatory capital and continuing operations could be materially adversely affected.

Loans held-for-sale – To mitigate interest rate sensitivity, from time to time, certain fixed rate loans are identified as held-for-sale in the secondary market. Accordingly, such loans are classified as held-for-sale in the consolidated balance sheets and are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or estimated market value in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized through a valuation allowance by charges to income. Mortgage loans held-for-sale are generally sold with the mortgage servicing rights retained by the Company. Gains or losses on sales of loans are recognized based on the difference between the selling price and the carrying value of the related loans sold based on the specific identification method.

Loans - The Company grants mortgage, commercial, and consumer loans to clients. A substantial portion of the loan portfolio is represented by mortgage loans throughout the Puget Sound region and in Clallam County of Washington State. The ability of the Company’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the real estate and general economic conditions in this area.

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off generally are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for any charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or costs on origination of loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield using the interest method amortized over the contractual life of the loan.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The accrual of interest is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days past due unless the credit is well secured and in process of collection. Loans are typically charged off no later than 120 days past due. Past due status is based on contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.

All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all of the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Allowance for loan losses - The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level sufficient to provide for probable credit losses based upon evaluating known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio. The allowance is provided based upon management’s continuing analysis of the pertinent factors underlying the quality of the loan portfolio. These factors include changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio, delinquency levels, actual loan loss experience, current economic conditions, and detailed analysis of individual loans for which full collectability may not be assured. The detailed analysis includes techniques to estimate the fair value of loan collateral and the existence of potential alternative sources of repayment. The allowance consists of specific, general, and unallocated components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as doubtful, substandard, or special mention.

For such loans that are also classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan are lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based upon historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors.

An unallocated component is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.

The appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses is estimated based upon those factors and trends identified by management at the time consolidated financial statements are prepared. When available information confirms that specific loans or portions thereof are uncollectible, identified amounts are charged against the allowance for credit losses.

The existence of some or all of the following criteria will generally confirm that a loss has been incurred: the loan is significantly delinquent and the borrower has not demonstrated the ability or intent to bring the loan current; the Company has no recourse to the borrower, or if it does, the borrower has insufficient assets to pay the debt; the estimated fair value of the loan collateral is significantly below the current loan balance, and there is little or no near-term prospect for improvement.

A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts (principal and interest) due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as residential mortgage loans and consumer loans, are collectively evaluated for probable and reasonably estimated loss. When a loan has been identified as being impaired, the amount of the impairment is measured by using discounted cash flows, except when, as a practical expedient, the current fair value of the collateral, reduced by costs to sell, is used. When the measurement of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan (including accrued interest), impairment is recognized by creating or adjusting an allocation of the allowance for loan losses.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The provision for loan losses is charged against income and is added to the allowance for loan losses based on quarterly assessments of the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is allocated to certain loan categories based on the relative risk characteristics, asset classifications, and actual loss experience of the loan portfolio. Although management has allocated the allowance for loan losses to various loan portfolio segments, the allowance is general in nature and is available to the loan portfolio in its entirety.

The ultimate recovery of all loans is susceptible to future market factors beyond the Company’s control. These factors may result in losses or recoveries differing significantly from those provided in the consolidated financial statements. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for credit losses, and may require the Company to make additions to the allowance based on their judgment about information available to them at the time of their examinations.

Transfers of financial assets - Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when: (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.

Mortgage servicing rights – The fair value of purchased mortgage servicing rights is estimated using a discounted cash flow model based on market information from a third party. At December 31, 2010, mortgage servicing rights are carried at fair value. Prior to January 1, 2010, originated mortgage servicing rights were recorded at the lower of cost or fair value by tranche.

Premises and equipment - Leasehold improvements and furniture and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Furniture and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 1 to 10 years. The cost of leasehold improvements is amortized using the straight-line method over the terms of the related leases.

Cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance - The carrying amount of bank owned life insurance approximates its fair value, and is estimated using the cash surrender value, net of any surrender charges.

Federal Home Loan Bank stock - The Company is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle (“FHLB”). FHLB stock represents the Company’s investment in the FHLB and is carried at par value, which reasonably approximates its fair value. As a member of the FHLB, the Company is required to maintain a minimum level of investment in FHLB stock based on specific percentages of its outstanding mortgages, total assets, or FHLB advances. At December 31, 2010, the Company’s minimum required investment in FHLB stock was $1.1 million. Typically the Company may request redemption at par value of any stock in excess of the minimum required investment. Stock redemptions are at the discretion of the FHLB.

Management evaluates FHLB stock for impairment. The determination of whether this investment is impaired is based on our assessment of the ultimate recoverability of cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of cost is influenced by criteria such as: (1) the significance of any decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLB and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB, (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, the customer base of the FHLB and (4) the liquidity position of the FHLB.

SOUND FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

On October 25, 2010, the FHLB agreed to the stipulation and issuance of a Consent Order by its primary regulator the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”). The Consent Order sets forth requirements for capital management, asset composition and other operational and risk management improvements. Additionally, the FHFA and the FHLB have agreed to a Stabilization Period that ends upon the filing of the FHLB’s June 30, 2011 financial statements. During this period, the FHLB’s classification as undercapitalized will remain in place. Subsequently, the FHLB may begin repurchasing member stock at par and paying dividends, upon achieving and maintaining financial thresholds established by the FHFA as part of the agency’s supervisory process, subject to FHFA’s approval.

Under FHFA regulations, a Federal Home Loan Bank that fails to meet any regulatory capital requirement may not declare a dividend or redeem or repurchase capital stock in excess of what is required for members’ current loans. Based upon an analysis by Standard and Poor’s regarding the Federal Home Loan Banks, they stated that the FHLB System has a special public status (organized under the Federal Home Loan Bank Act of 1932) and because of the extraordinary support offered to it by the U.S. Treasury in a crisis, (though not used), it can be considered an extension of the government. We believe the U.S. government would almost certainly support the credit obligations of the FHLB System. We have determined there is not an other-than-temporary impairment on our FHLB stock investment as of December 31, 2010.

Other real estate owned and repossessed assets - Other real estate owned and repossessed assets represent real estate and other assets which the Company has taken control of in partial or full satisfaction of loans. At the time of foreclosure, other real estate owned and foreclosed assets are recorded at the lower of the carrying amount of the loan or fair value less costs to sell, which becomes the new basis. Any write-downs based on the asset’s fair value at the date of acquisition are charged to the allowance for loan and lease losses. After foreclosure, management periodically performs valuations such that the property is carried at the lower of its new cost basis or fair value, net of estimated costs to sell. Revenue and expenses from operations and subsequent adjustments to the carrying amount of the property are included in other non-interest expense in the consolidated statements of income.

In some instances, the Company may make loans to facilitate the sales of other real estate owned. Management reviews all sales for which it is the lending institution. Any gains related to sales of other real estate owned may be deferred until the buyer has a sufficient initial and continuing investment in the property.

Income Taxes - Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Under this method a deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the enacted tax rates which will be in effect when the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax basis of existing assets and liabilities are expected to be reported in the Company’s income tax returns. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Valuation allowances are established to reduce the net carrying amount of deferred tax assets if it is determined to be more likely than not, that all or some portion of the potential deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Deposits – At December 31, 2010 and 2009, deposits represent various accounts of the owners of the Company. Deposit ownership entitles the members to vote in the annual elections of the board of directors and on other corporate matters. Members are permitted to cast one vote for each $100, or fraction thereof, of the withdrawal value of the members’ accounts up to a maximum of 1,000 votes. Members’ deposits are subordinated to all other liabilities of the Company upon liquidation. Interest on members’ deposits is based on available earnings at the end of an interest period and is not guaranteed by the Company. Interest rates are set by the Company’s Asset-Liability Management Committee.

Segment reporting - The Company operates in one segment and makes management decisions based on consolidated results. The Company’s operations are solely in the financial services industry and include providing to its customers traditional banking and other financial services.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Off-balance-sheet credit-related financial instruments - In the normal course of operations, the Company engages in a variety of financial transactions that are not recorded in our financial statements. These transactions involve varying degrees of off-balance sheet credit, interest rate and liquidity risks. These transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments, letters of credit and lines of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.

Advertising costs - The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising expenses were $124,000 and $300,000, respectively for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Comprehensive income (loss) - Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains, and losses be included in net income (loss). Certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale investments, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet. Such items, along with net income (loss), are components of comprehensive income (loss).

The components of other comprehensive income (loss) and related tax effects are as follows:

	2010			2009
	(in thousands)
Reclassification adjustment for realized (gain) loss on sale of available-for-sale securities, net of other-than-temporary impairment	$	(35	)	$	212

Net unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities	$	(1,057	)	$	(1,424	)
Tax effect		386			484

Net-of-tax amount	$	(671	)	$	(940	)

Intangible assets – At December 31, 2010 and 2009, we had $997,000 and $1.1 million, respectively, of identifiable intangible assets included in other assets as a result of the acquisition of deposits from another institution. This asset is amortized using the straight-line method over a period of 9.5 years.

Employee stock ownership plan - The Company sponsors a leveraged ESOP. As shares are committed to be released, compensation expense is recorded equal to the market price of the shares, and the shares become outstanding for purposes of earnings per share calculations. Cash dividends on allocated shares (those credited to ESOP participants’ accounts) are recorded as a reduction of retained earnings and distributed directly to participants’ accounts. Cash dividends on unallocated shares (those held by the ESOP not yet credited to participants’ accounts) are used to pay administrative expenses and debt service requirements of the ESOP. At December 31, 2010, there were 80,892 unallocated shares in the plan. Shares released on December 31, 2010 totaled 11,556 and will be credited to plan participants’ accounts in 2011.

SOUND FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Earnings (loss) Per Share - Basic earnings (loss) per share is net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods, which was 2,913,425 and 2,903,789 shares for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. ESOP shares are considered dilutive and outstanding for this calculation, unless unearned. There are currently no potentially dilutive common shares issuable under stock options or other programs. Common stock equivalent shares include the stock options and restricted stock awards under the 2008 Employee Stock Ownership Plan approved by the shareholders in January 2008.

Fair value - Fair value is defined in ASC Topic 820 as the price that would be received when an asset is sold or a liability is transferred in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The standard establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands fair value measurement disclosure requirements.

Fair values of our financial instruments are based on the fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, typically market data obtained from third parties, and minimize the use of unobservable inputs, which reflects our estimates for market assumptions, when measuring fair value.

Three levels of valuation inputs are ranked in accordance with the prescribed fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3: Assets or liabilities whose significant value drivers are unobservable

In determining the appropriate levels, the Company performs a detailed analysis of the assets and liabilities that are subject to fair value measurements. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value of an asset or liability may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. The level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level unobservable input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Therefore, an item may be classified in Level 3 even though there may be some significant inputs that are readily observable.

Subsequent events – Subsequent events are events or transactions that occur after the date of the statement of financial condition but before financial statements are issued. Recognized subsequent events are events or transactions that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the statement of financial condition, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing financial statements. Non-recognized subsequent events are events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the statement of financial condition but arose after that date.

Reclassifications - Certain amounts reported in prior years’ and quarters’ financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. The results of the reclassifications are not considered material and have no effect on previously reported net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share.

Note 2 – Accounting Pronouncements Recently Issued or Adopted

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) – Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. FASB ASU No. 2009-06 requires (i) fair value disclosures by each class of assets and liabilities (generally a subset within a line item as presented in the statement of financial position) rather than major category, (ii) for items measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the amounts of significant transfers between Levels 1 and 2, and transfers into and out of Level 3, and the reasons for those transfers, including separate discussion related to the transfers into each level apart from transfers out of each level, and (iii) gross presentation of the amounts of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the Level 3

recurring measurement reconciliation. Additionally, the ASU clarifies that a description of the valuation techniques(s) and inputs used to measure fair values is required for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. Also, if a valuation technique has changed, entities should disclose that change and the reason for the change. Disclosures other than the gross presentation changes in the Level 3 reconciliation are effective for the first reporting period beginning after December 15, 2010.

The requirement to present the Level 3 activity of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company adopted the first part of the standard and it did not have any material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The adoption of the second part of the standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09, Subsequent Events (Topic 855) – Amendments to Certain Recognition and disclosure Requirements. This ASU eliminates the requirement to disclose the date through which a company has evaluated subsequent events and refines the scope of the disclosure requirements for reissued financial statements. This ASU was effective for the first quarter of 2010 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In March 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-11, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) – Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives. The ASU eliminates the scope exception for bifurcation of embedded credit derivatives in interests in securitized financial assets, unless they are

created solely by subordination of one financial instrument to another. The ASU was effective the third quarter of 2010 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-18, Receivables (Topic 310) – Effect of a Loan Modification When the Loan Is Part of a Pool That is Accounted for as a Single Asset. This ASU clarifies that modifications of loans that are accounted for within a pool under Topic 310-30 do not result in the removal of those loans from the pool even if the modification of those loans would otherwise be considered a troubled debt restructuring. An entity will continue to be required to consider whether the pool of assets in which the loan is included is impaired if expected cash flows for the pool change. No additional disclosures are required with this ASU. The amendments in this ASU are effective for modifications of loans accounted for within pools under Topic 310-30 occurring in the first interim or annual period ending on or after July 15, 2010. Upon initial adoption of the guidance in this ASU, an entity may make a onetime election to terminate accounting for loans as a pool under Topic 310-30. This election may be applied on a pool-by-pool basis and does not preclude an entity from applying pool accounting to subsequent acquisitions of loans with credit deterioration. This ASU was effective for the third quarter of 2010 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, Receivables (Topic 310): Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses. The ASU expands existing disclosures to require an entity to provide additional information in their disclosures about the credit quality of their financing receivables and the credit reserves held against them. Specifically, entities will be required to present a rollforward of activity in the allowance for credit losses, the nonaccrual status of financing receivables by class of financing receivables, and impaired financing receivables by class of financing receivables, all on a disaggregated basis. The ASU also requires an entity to provide additional disclosures on credit quality indicators of financing receivables at the end of the reporting period by class of financing receivables, the aging of past due financing receivables at the end of the reporting period by class of financing receivables, the nature and extent of troubled debt restructurings that occurred during the period by class of financing receivables and their effect on the allowance for credit losses, the nature and extent of financing receivables modified as troubled debt restructurings within the previous 12 months that defaulted during the reporting period by class of financing receivables and their effect on the allowance for credit losses, and significant purchases and sales of financing receivables during the reporting period disaggregated by portfolio segment. For public entities, the disclosures of activity are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010.

The impact of adoption has not had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, but has resulted in a significant expansion of the Company’s credit disclosures.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-29, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations. This ASU requires that if a public entity discloses comparative financial statements, then those disclosures of revenue and earnings of the combined entity should be as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. The ASU also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures under Topic 805 to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination. The ASU is effective for business combinations that are consummated on or after the annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-28, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts. This ASU modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity will be required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if there are adverse qualitative factors that indicate that it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. For public reporting entities, the ASU is effective for interim and fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. No. 2011-01, Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20. This ASU temporarily delays the effective date of the disclosures about troubled debt restructurings in Update 2010-20 for public entities. The delay is intended to allow the Board time to complete its deliberations on what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. The effective date of the new disclosures about troubled debt restructurings for public entities and the guidance for determining what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring will then be coordinated. Currently, that guidance is anticipated to be effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2011. Accordingly, the Company has not included the disclosures deferred by this ASU.

As of December 31, 2010, our securities portfolio consisted of two U.S.-agency and seven non-U.S. agency mortgage backed securities with a fair value of $4.5 million, of which, six non-U.S. agency securities were in an unrealized loss position. The unrealized losses were caused by changes in interest rates and market illiquidity causing a decline in the fair value subsequent to the purchase. The contractual terms of these investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than par. Because we do not intend to sell the securities and it is not likely we will be required to sell these securities before recovery of the amortized cost basis, which may include holding each security until contractual maturity, the unrealized losses on these investments are not considered other-than-temporarily impaired. During the year ended December 31, 2010, we recognized a $99,000 non-cash OTTI charge on two non-agency mortgage-backed securities. At December 31, 2010, the fair value of these two securities was $1.5 million. Management concluded that the decline of the estimated fair value below the cost of the securities was other than temporary and recorded a credit loss of $99,000 through non-interest income. We determined the remaining decline in value of $1 million was not related to specific credit deterioration. We do not intend to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell the securities before anticipated recovery of the remaining amortized cost basis. We closely monitor our investment securities for changes in credit risk. The current market environment significantly limits our ability to mitigate our exposure to valuation changes in these securities by selling them. Accordingly, if market conditions deteriorate further and we determine our holdings of these or other investment securities are OTTI, our future earnings, shareholders’ equity, regulatory capital and continuing operations could be materially adversely affected.

Credit Quality Indicators. Federal regulations provide for the classification of lower quality loans and other assets, such as debt and equity securities, as substandard, doubtful or loss. An asset is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and pay capacity of the borrower or of any collateral pledged. Substandard assets include those characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses of currently existing facts, conditions and values. Assets classified as loss are those considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets without establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted.

When we classify problem assets as either substandard or doubtful, we may establish a specific allowance in an amount we deem prudent to address the risk specifically or we may allow the loss to be addressed in the general allowance. General allowances represent loss allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, have not been specifically allocated to particular problem assets. When an insured institution classifies problem assets as a loss, it is required to charge off such assets in the period in which they are deemed uncollectible. Assets that do not currently expose us to sufficient risk to warrant classification as substandard or doubtful but possess identified weaknesses are required to be classified as either watch or special mention assets. Our determination as to the classification of our assets and the amount of our valuation allowances is subject to review by the OTS, which can order the establishment of additional loss allowances.

Early indicator loan grades are used to identify and track potential problem loans which do not rise to the levels described for substandard, doubtful or loss. The grades for watch and special mention are assigned to loans which have been criticized based upon known characteristics such as periodic payment delinquency or stale financial information from the borrower and/or guarantors. Loans identified as criticized (watch and special mention) or classified (substandard, doubtful, or loss) are subject to problem loan reporting not less than quarterly.

The following table represents the internally assigned grades as of December 31, 2010 by type of loan:

Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans. Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due. Loans are automatically placed on nonaccrual once the loan is 90 days past due or if, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payment of obligations as they become due, as well as when required by regulatory provisions.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

A loan is considered impaired when we have determined that we may be unable to collect payments of principal or interest when due under the terms of the loan. In the process of identifying loans as impaired, we take into consideration factors which include payment history and status, collateral value, financial condition of the borrower, and the probability of collecting scheduled payments in the future. Minor payment delays and insignificant payment shortfalls typically do not result in a loan being classified as impaired. The significance of payment delays and shortfalls is considered on a case by case basis, after taking into consideration the totality of circumstances surrounding the loans and the borrowers, including payment history and amounts of any payment shortfall, length and reason for delay, and likelihood of return to stable performance. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for all loans in the portfolio.

Note 6 – Mortgage Servicing Rights

On January 1, 2010, the Company elected to adopt the fair value measurement method for mortgage servicing rights. Management believes that this method better represents the ongoing market value of the servicing asset. The Company was previously carrying its acquired mortgage servicing rights portfolio at fair market value and management believes that it will be more consistent to report all mortgage servicing assets under the same method.

The unpaid principal balances of loans serviced for Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) at December 31, 2010 and 2009, totaled approximately $438.7 million and $510.9 million, respectively, and are not included in the Company’s financial statements.

Effective in 2007, the board of directors adopted a supplemental executive retirement plan (SERP) to provide certain members of senior management with additional retirement income. These payments are subject to a non-compete clause. The SERP is an unfunded, non-contributory defined benefit plan evidenced by an Executive Long Term Compensation Agreement between the recipients and the Company. The SERP is subject to a vesting schedule and payments do not begin until after retirement. The SERP provides for earlier payments in the event of death or disability. In the event of an involuntary termination without cause or a change in control of the Company, the recipients are entitled immediately to the accrued liability under the SERP (with any applicable cutback for payments after a change in control as required by Section 280(G) of the Internal Revenue Code). As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the accrued liability for the SERP was $552,000 and $397,000, respectively, and is included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The expense was $154,000 and $134,000 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Stock Options and Restricted Stock

In 2008, the Board of Directors adopted and shareholders approved an Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan permits the grant of restricted stock options and stock appreciation rights. Under the Plan 144,455 shares of common stock were approved for awards for stock options and stock appreciation rights and 57,782 shares of common stock were approved for awards for restricted stock and restricted stock units.

On January 27, 2009, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company awarded shares of restricted stock and stock options to directors, executive officers and employees of the Company and the Bank, pursuant to the Plan. The Company granted 25,998 non-qualified stock options and 82,400 incentive stock options to certain directors and employees. The Company also granted 52,032 shares of restricted stock to certain directors and employees. During the period ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, share based compensation expense totaled $132,000 and $120,000, respectively.

All of the awards will vest in 20 percent annual increments commencing one year from the grant date. The options are exercisable for a period of 10 years from the date of grant, subject to vesting. Half of the stock options granted to each of the award recipients indicated above were at an exercise price of $7.35, which was the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The remaining half of the stock options granted to each of the award recipients indicated above were at an exercise price of $8.50, which was $1.15 above the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The vesting date for options and restricted stock is accelerated in the event of the grantee’s death, disability or a change in control of the Company.

There were 21,680 exercisable stock options as of December 31, 2010. The aggregate intrinsic value of the stock options as of December 31, 2010 was $0.

The following is a summary of the Company’s stock option plan awards during the period ended December 31, 2010:

As of December 31, 2010, there was $171,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options granted under the Plan. The cost is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted-average vesting period of 3 years. No options were exercisable at December 31, 2010.

Restricted Stock Awards

The fair value of the restricted stock awards is equal to the fair value of the Company’s stock at the date of grant. Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period that the awards are based. Shares awarded as restricted stock vest ratably over a five-year period beginning at the grant date with 20% vesting on the anniversary date of each grant date. In November 2008, the Board of Directors authorized management to repurchase up to 57,782 shares of the Company’s outstanding stock over a twelve-month period in order to fund the restricted stock awards made under the Plan, of which 45,800 shares were repurchased.

The following is a summary of the Company’s non-vested restricted stock awards for the period ended December 31, 2010:

Non-vested Shares	Shares		Weighted- Average Grant-Date Fair Value Per Share		Aggregate Intrinsic Value Per Share

Non-vested at January 1, 2010		52,032	$	7.35

Expected to vest assuming a 0% forfeiture rate over the vesting term		41,626	$	7.35	$	4.80

The aggregate intrinsic value of the non-vested restricted stock options as of December 31, 2010 was $200,000.

As of December 31, 2010, there was $236,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested restricted stock granted under the Plan remaining. The cost is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average vesting period of 3 years.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan

In January 2008, the ESOP borrowed $1,155,600 from the Company to purchase common stock of the Company. The loan is being repaid principally from the Company’s contributions to the ESOP over a period of ten years. The interest rate on the loan is fixed at 4.0% per annum. As of December 31, 2010, the remaining balance of the ESOP loan was $858,000. Neither the loan nor the related interest is reflected on the consolidated financial statements.

At December 31, 2010, the ESOP was committed to release 11,556 shares of the Company’s common stock to participants and held 92,444 unallocated shares remaining to be released in future years. The fair value of the 92,444 restricted shares held by the ESOP trust was $444,000 at December 31, 2010. ESOP compensation expense included in salaries and benefits was $70,000 and $72,000 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recognized no interest and penalties.

Note 14 – Minimum Regulatory Capital Requirements

The Bank is subject to minimum capital requirements imposed by the Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”). Based on its capital levels at December 31, 2010, the Bank exceeded these regulatory requirements as of that date and continues to exceed them as of the date of this filing. Consistent with our goals to operate a sound and profitable organization, our policy is for the Bank to maintain a “well-capitalized” status under the capital categories of the OTS. Based on capital levels at December 31 30, 2010, the Bank was considered to be well-capitalized as determined by existing OTS written guidelines. Management monitors the capital levels of the Bank to provide for current and future business opportunities and to meet regulatory guidelines for “well-capitalized” institutions.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and Tier 1 capital to average assets (as defined). Management believes that, as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

As of December 31, 2010, the most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, an institution must maintain minimum total Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following table. There are no conditions or events since the notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

In July 2010, the Bank and Company entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with the OTS. Under that agreement, the Bank must, among other things, develop a business plan for achieving and maintaining, by March 31, 2011, a minimum Tier 1 Capital Ratio of 8% and a minimum Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio of 12%, compared to its current minimum required regulatory Tier 1 Capital Ratio of 4% and Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio of 8%. As of December 31, 2010, the Bank’s Tier 1 Ratio was 7.89% and its Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio was 11.67%. See “Capital” below. The MOU also requires the Bank to (a) remain in compliance with the minimum capital ratios contained in the business plan; (b) obtain written approval from the OTS prior to the Company declaring a dividend; (c) submit a quarterly update to its Classified Asset Reduction Plan; and (d) not increase the dollar amount of brokered deposits without prior written non-objection of the OTS.

Based on the MOU, the Company is restricted from the payment of dividends without OTS approval. Dividends from the Company may also depend, in part, upon its receipt of dividends from the Bank. In addition, the Company may not make a distribution that would constitute a return of capital during the three-year term of the business plan submitted in connection with the mutual holding company reorganization and 2008 stock issuance. No insured depositary institution may make a capital distribution if, after making the distribution, the institution would be undercapitalized.

SOUND FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The Board and Bank management believes that the agreement will not fundamentally constrain the Bank’s business and that compliance with the agreement can be achieved. The requirements of the agreement will remain in effect until modified or terminated by the OTS. We are required to comply with the terms of the MOU and lack of compliance could result in monetary penalties and/or additional regulatory actions.

The Bank’s actual capital amounts (in thousands) and ratios as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 are presented in the following table:

Note 15 – Fair Value Measurements

A description of the valuation methodologies used for certain financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value is as follows:

Mortgage Servicing Rights - The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is estimated using a discounted cash flow model based on market information from a third party. These assets are classified as Level 3.

AFS Securities – AFS securities are recorded at fair value based on quoted market prices, if available. If quoted market prices are not available, management utilizes third-party pricing services, broker quotations from dealers in the specific instruments, or discounted cash flow models. Level 1 securities include those traded on an active exchange, as well as U.S. government and its agencies securities. Level 2 securities include agency and non-agency mortgage-backed securities and certain collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs).

Loans Held for Sale - Residential mortgage loans held for sale are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value. The fair value of fixed-rate residential loans is based on whole loan forward prices obtained from government sponsored enterprises. These loans are classified as Level 2 and are measured on a nonrecurring basis. At December 31, 2010, loans held for sale were carried at cost.

Impaired Loans - The fair value of collateral dependent loans is based on the current appraised value of the collateral or internally developed models which contain management’s assumptions. These assets are classified as level 3

Other Real Estate Owned (“OREO”) and Repossessed Assets - OREO and repossessed assets consist principally of properties acquired through foreclosure and are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value less selling costs.

The following table presents the balances of assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2010:

	Fair Value at December 31, 2010

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

On January 1, 2010 the Company elected to adopt the fair value measurement method for mortgage servicing rights. At January 1, 2010, the Company recognized a $39,000 adoption of fair value adjustment which gave the portfolio a total valuation of $3.4 million. The Company added $628,000 in servicing obligations as a result of transfers of financial assets, recognized $897,000 in net disposals of servicing obligations and recognized $103,000 in earnings as a result of an increase in the fair value of the mortgage servicing rights asset

and insurance		252		252		340		340

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate fair value of each class of financial instruments listed below:

Cash and cash equivalents, accrued interest receivable and payable, and advance payments from borrowers for taxes and insurance - The estimated fair value is equal to the carrying amount.

Available for sale securities – Available for sale securities are recorded at fair value based on quoted market prices, if available. If quoted market prices are not available, management utilizes third-party pricing services or broker quotations from dealers in the specific instruments or based on discounted cash flow models. Level 1 securities include those traded on an active exchange, as well as U.S. government and its agencies securities. Level 2 securities include mortgage-backed securities and certain collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs).

Loans - The estimated fair value for all fixed rate loans is determined by discounting the estimated cash flows using the current rate at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and maturities. The estimated fair value for variable rate loans is the carrying amount. The fair value for all loans also takes into account projected credit losses as a part of the estimate.

SOUND FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

FHLB stock - The estimated fair value is equal to the par value of the stock.

Bank-owned Life Insurance - The estimated fair value is equal to the cash surrender value of policies.

Deposits - The estimated fair value of deposit accounts (savings, demand deposit, and money market accounts) is the carrying amount. The fair value of fixed-maturity time certificates of deposit are estimated by discounting the estimated cash flows using the current rate at which similar certificates would be issued.

Borrowings - The fair value of FHLB advances are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Off-balance-sheet financial instruments - The fair value for the Company’s off-balance-sheet loan commitments are estimated based on fees charged to others to enter into similar agreements taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and credit standing of the Company’s customers. The estimated fair value of these commitments is not significant.

We assume interest rate risk (the risk that general interest rate levels will change) as a result of our normal operations. As a result, the fair values of our financial instruments will change when interest rate levels change, which may be favorable or unfavorable to us. Management attempts to match maturities of assets and liabilities to the extent necessary or possible to minimize interest rate risk. However, borrowers with fixed-rate obligations are less likely to prepay in a rising rate environment and more likely to prepay in a falling rate environment. Conversely, depositors who are receiving fixed rates are more likely to withdraw funds before maturity in a rising rate environment and less likely to do so in a falling rate environment. Management monitors rates and maturities of assets and liabilities and attempts to minimize interest rate risk by establishing early withdrawal penalties for certificates of deposit, creating interest rate floors for certain variable rate loans, adjusting terms of new loans and deposits, by borrowing at fixed rates for fixed terms and investing in securities with terms that mitigate our overall interest rate risk.

Note 16 – Concentrations of Credit Risk

Most of the Company’s business activity is with customers located in the state of Washington. A substantial portion of the loan portfolio is represented by one-to-four family mortgage loans and commercial real estate throughout western Washington. The ability of the Company’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the real estate and general economic conditions in the area. Loans to one borrower are limited by federal banking regulations to 15% of the Company’s equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Note 17 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments generally represent a commitment to extend credit in the form of loans. The instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statement of financial condition.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss, in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit, is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

SOUND FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established by the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Because many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Company, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.

Financial instruments whose contract amount represents credit risk were as follows:

	December 31,
	2010		2009
	(in thousands)
Unused home equity lines of credit	$	17,906	$	21,131
Unused personal line of credit		2,516		2,677
Unused business line of credit		9,690		4,702
Undisbursed portion of loans closed		3,972		4,455
Irrevocable letters of credit		265		265
Residential mortgage commitments		4,624		1,933

	$	38,973	$	35,163

At December 31, 2010, fixed rate loan commitments totaled $4.6 million and had a weighted average interest rate of 4.55%. At December 31, 2009, fixed rate loan commitments totaled $1.9 million and had a weighted average interest rate of 4.67%.

Commitments for credit may expire without being drawn upon. Therefore, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements of the Company. These commitments are not reflected in the financial statements.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company sells loans without recourse that may have to be subsequently repurchased due to defects that occurred during the origination of the loan. The defects are categorized as documentation errors, underwriting errors, early payment defaults, and fraud. When a loan sold to an investor without recourse fails to perform, the investor will typically review the loan file to determine whether defects in the origination process occurred. If a defect is identified, the Company may be required to either repurchase the loan or indemnify the investor for losses sustained. If there are not defects, the Company has no commitment to repurchase the loan. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the maximum amount of these guarantees totaled $200.8 million and $181.4 million, respectively. These amounts represent the unpaid principal balances of the Company’s loans serviced for others’ portfolios. The Company has recorded a reserve of $65,000 to cover loss exposure related to these guarantees. No loans were repurchased for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

The Company pays certain medical, dental, prescription, and vision claims for its employees, on a self-insured basis. The Company has purchased stop-loss insurance to cover claims that exceed stated limits and has recorded estimated reserves for the ultimate costs for both reported claims and claims incurred but not reported, which are not considered significant at December 31, 2010 and 2009.

At various times, the Company may be the defendant in various legal proceedings arising in connection with its business. It is the opinion of management that the financial position and the results of operations of the Company will not be materially adversely affected by the outcome of these legal proceedings and that adequate provision has been made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Note 18 - VISA

In November 2007, Visa Inc. (“Visa”) announced that it had reached a settlement with American Express and Discover Card related to antitrust lawsuits. The Company and other Visa member banks were obligated to fund the settlement and share in losses resulting from this litigation. The Company is not a party to the Visa litigation and its liability arises solely from the Company’s membership interest in Visa, Inc.

In the first quarter of 2008, Visa completed an initial public offering and the Company received $154,000 as part of a subsequent mandatory partial redemption of our Visa Class B shares. Using the proceeds from this offering, Visa established a $3.0 billion escrow account to cover settlements, the resolution of pending litigation and related claims (“covered litigation”).

As of December 31, 2010, the Company owned 5,699 shares of Class B common stock. These shares are restricted and may not be transferred until the later of (i) three years from the date of the initial public offering or (ii) the period of time necessary to resolve the covered litigation. A conversion ratio of 0.71429 was initially established for the conversion rate of Class B shares into Class A shares. If the funds in the escrow account are insufficient to settle all the covered litigation, Visa may sell additional Class A shares, use the proceeds to settle litigation, and further reduce the conversion ratio. If funds remain in the escrow account after all litigation is settled, the Class B conversion ratio will be increased to reflect that surplus. Since the litigation escrow account was established, Visa has deposited additional funds into the account. This has resulted in a reduction in the conversion ratio from the initial ratio of 0.71429 to 0.5102 as of October 8, 2010. Further reductions in the conversion ratio are possible before redemption.

As of December 31, 2010, the value of the Class A shares was $70.38 per share. Using the current conversion ratio, the value of unredeemed Class A equivalent shares owned by the Company was $205,000 and has not been reflected in the accompanying financial statements

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

(a)Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of December 31, 2010, was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and several other members of our senior management team within the 90-day period preceding the filing of this annual report. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2010, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to our management (including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

We intend to continually review and evaluate the design and effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures and to improve the Company's controls and procedures over time and to correct any deficiencies that we may discover in the future. The goal is to ensure that senior management has timely access to all material financial and non-financial information concerning the Company's business. While we believe the present design of the disclosure controls and procedures is effective to achieve its goal, future events affecting its business may cause the Company to modify its disclosure controls and procedures.

The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any control procedure also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

(b)Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Act) that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2010, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. The annual report of management on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting is set forth below.

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

The management of Sound Financial, Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and board of directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention of overriding controls. Accordingly, even effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment, we concluded that, as of December 31, 2010, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.

Federal law does not require that this annual report include an attestation of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal controls over financial reporting.

(c)Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2010, that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
