VIEWPOINTS Bankers are the Solution NOT the Problem E The Bottom Line By Howard Headlee, UBA President verybody is talking about creating jobs nowadays. From the sound of all the talk on cable news, you would think that jobs are created by Congress or the President. The jobs we need are created by individuals who carefully place private wealth at risk. And that is what traditional banking is all about. So how ironic is it that the same politicians who have spent the last 3 years opportunistically bashing banks and saddling them with hundreds of new regulations are now worried about getting re-elected because the private sector is not creating jobs. In these tough economic times, America needs really good bankers, who have the freedom and flexibility to do what they do best. If given the opportunity, I am confident the bankers I know will not let America down. In these tough economic times, America needs really good bankers, and I am confident, given the bankers I know that they are not going to let America down. Our Bottom Line is You 4 UTAH BANKERS ASSOCIATION JULY/AUGUST 2011 consequences of the Dodd-Frank law, and exposing the unintended consequences that are making it almost impossible to make the loans necessary to get the economy going again. Traditional bankers live in the communities with the entrepreneurs that are trying to save our country. We see them at church, at the local restaurants, and the Fourth of July parades. Our business, our goal, our passion is to help them make our communities thrive and grow. Traditional bankers are prudent, measured, thoughtful and trustworthy. They don’t need hundreds of new regulations drafted in Washington D.C., sometimes without any debate or study, to tell them how to do their jobs. Their communities don’t need this misguided mountain of regulations to protect them from the bankers with whom they live, work and worship. But someone needs to tell that to the highest ranking financial official in the Obama administration. Last month Timothy Geithner, the Secretary of the Treasury went on television in defense of the Dodd-Frank legislations and said, “Don’t listen to banks . . . because their interests are not aligned perfectly with the broad interests of the American economy. Their job is to evade, or avoid, or weaken, any constraints on their ability to operate. Our job is to try to make sure Despite the thrashing they have taken in the press, traditional bankers in communities across the country are rolling up their sleeves. They are gearing up to comply with all the new regulations. They are navigating a new path through all the red tape in an effort to continue to meet their customers’ needs. They are pushing back on over-zealous regulators, shin The Bottom Line - continued on page 14 ing the spotlight on the outrageous VIEWPOINTS R Outgoing Chairman's Message ecently,some family members and I had the chance to travel on the famous White Pass & Yukon Route Railroad in Skagway, Alaska. Many of you have taken this breath taking ride to White Pass. The train travels through some of the most beautiful but rugged landscape in North America. I marveled at the work that had gone into the railroad’s creation. The railroad was born out of the Yukon Gold Rush that happened in the late 1800s. Thousands of workers and some 900,000 pounds of explosives were used to blast out a road bed for the railroad. Many were killed and much back breaking work took place. In Feb. 1899, the workers reached the White Pass which lies on the border of Alaska and the Yukon Territory. As I rode the train, I marveled at the dedication and drive that the men must have had to carve this railroad out of the cliff walls and deep canyons. While there must have been much disappointment and hardship, they were not going to stop until they had reached their goal. I admire that dedication and drive. Those of us that sat on that train were able to enjoy the beauty because of that dedication. Today we are setting the stage for future generations in the financial world. Legislation is being passed and regulations are being written that will change the landscape of banking. Many people will say that we are headed for a banking environment that will be dominated by only a very few government run institutions. They say that our financial goals cannot be realized due to all that is being enacted. To those that make such claims I say to them that deep canyons and cliff walls are not going to stop us in keeping our independence as a financial institution. The only thing that will stop us is ourselves. If we allow ourselves to become discouraged and down trodden, we fall victim to the changing environment. As an industry we must stick together and support each other. Large institutions, small institutions, industrial banks, and others need to firmly stand as one. We need to speak as one voice to the public, media, and Washington. We need to not be fearful of letting our voices be heard. If we don’t stand up for what we know to be true, who will? CHAIRMAN’s MESSAGE By MATT PACKARD, UBA Chairman I am grateful for an association that speaks up. I appreciate the leadership of Howard Headlee and all who work with him that help us as financial institutions in the State of Utah to speak as one voice. It is my hope that we will not let steep cliff walls and deep canyons discourage us and keep future generations from enjoying the benefit and success of our hard work. Thanks again for the honor of being able to serve as your Chairman this past year. I give my support to Damon Miller and his vision for us as members of the Utah Bankers Association. JULY/AUGUST 2011 UTAH BANKERS ASSOCIATION 5 VIEWPOINTS G By DAMON MILLER, Incoming UBA Chairman Incoming Chairman's Message reetings fellow Utah bankers! I am honored and excited to be representing you over the coming year as Chairman of the Utah Bankers Association. The challenges we face currently as an industry are unprecedented and daunting, but together we can find our way through the myriad of new obstacles, make progress in rationalizing some of the new rules and regulations coming at us, and very importantly, return some well deserved respect and appreciation to our industry and fellow bankers. Making progress on each of these fronts is my goal for the coming year. My first order of business though is to give a big nod of appreciation to our outgoing Chairman, Matt Packer. Over the past several years I have had the privilege of working closely with Matt, and have witnessed first hand his dedication to our industry and professionalism. He has represented all of us with great conviction, dignity and class, and served through a particularly ominous period for both our industry and country. Please join me in extending Matt a sincere and well deserved "Thank You!" Recently, Howard and I had the opportunity to attend the ABA's Summer Leadership meetings in Washington DC, and I can tell you that our fellow bankers across America are beyond upset by the continued vilification our industry receives from both the Administration and many members of Congress, and by the rapidly evolving regu- 6 UTAH BANKERS ASSOCIATION JULY/AUGUST 2011 latory crisis our industry faces. I personally am appalled at the negative rhetoric and finger pointing that continues to be directed at "bankers," and the precious little ownership our government acknowledges for the significant role they and regulators played in creating the financial crisis we have all suffered through. For years, we as an industry have been pointing to the reckless and largely unregulated mortgage lending going on outside of banking as a significant risk, yet our voice was not heard. Additionally, it was not banks, but congress, who created the primary vehicles for many unqualified, or under qualified borrowers to obtain loans beyond there means, with little or no down payment, by allowing and encouraging the purchase of such loans by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, or through inclusion of FHA guarantees. How has all of that accountability been so obviously overlooked in assessing blame for the financial crisis, in looking for answers, and in structuring appropriate responses? The 3300 plus pages of regulations (over 400,000 words!) coming at us like a freight train is congress' answer. The sheer volume of new rules and regulations is clearly a reactionary political response by congress and the President, which in many cases badly misses the target. I know of no one in our industry opposed to prudent changes in our standards and practices, reasonable oversight and regula- VIEWPOINTS tion, and full, fair and honest disclosures, yet the burdens being thrust upon us by Dodd-Frank go far beyond addressing the relevant issues that needed to be remedied. The Durbin Amendment to Dodd-Frank is a perfect example. What on earth did debit card interchange rates have to do with the financial crisis? Nothing, nothing at all is the answer, yet we recently lost approximately 50% of our revenue stream from this product by virtue of the Durbin Amendment, much of which covered fraud and issuance risks we as banks must absorb. Senseless! For sure, bankers are not blameless in all that has occurred over the past three years...but we certainly are NOT solely to blame for the mortgage meltdown and the ensuing financial crisis. There are over 2 million bankers across America, yet those who manipulated and abused the system, or who profited obscenely by dealing unethically or taking unfair advantage of people or opportunities within their purview are a small fraction of all of us...something less than 1/10th of 1% of all bankers! Additionally, most of the abuse occurred in Investment Banks, not in traditional Commercial Banks or Industrial Loan Banks. The remaining 99.9% plus, are the same honest, hard working people I have come to know over the past 32 years. They are friends and neighbors, mothers and fathers, son and daughters, brothers and sisters...all of whom come to work each day to serve our clients, both business and personal, and help them meet the financial challenges and opportunities in their lives and achieve their dreams. The bankers I have been associated with over many years are some of the finest people I know; fiercely loyal to their families, friends, communities, and country! Banking, and bankers, should be returned to the appropriate levels of respect they so richly deserve, and be recognized and appreciated for all they do to serve their customers and communities, and fuel America's economic engines. Over the coming year I would ask each of you to take renewed pride in the key role you play in the lives of your customers and our country, and to commit personally to sharing this message throughout the communities we serve. If each and every one of us takes up this charge, we can collectively help return out industry to its rightful place of honor and respect in our country. America's banks and bankers are critical to our continued economic growth and prosperity. We have much to do as an industry to react to all of the new rules and regulations we face and blunt the continuing attacks on our credibility, but together we can meet these challenges, move steadfastly through them, and emerge with renewed strength and well deserved respect from all. Let each of us be proud to be both Americans AND Bankers! JULY/AUGUST 2011 UTAH BANKERS ASSOCIATION 7 FEATURE Customizing the Bank Guarantee By Rick L. Knuth, Jones Waldo Holbrook & McDonough PC Guarantees are often an after-thought in commercial loan transactions: Lenders tend to focus more on the collateral, and borrowers tend to assume that the form of guarantee is non-negotiable. As a result, no one pays much attention to the guarantee agreement – until the loan is in trouble, that is, at which point everyone suddenly becomes very interested in whatever recourse against the guarantors was agreed to back on that sunny, optimistic day when the loan was made. However, the guarantee agreement deserves a more thoughtful, flexible consideration than that. Bankers would be better served not to treat the guarantee as another document in of the debtor, no matter how or when they arise, and without any conditions. Most of the form loan guarantees banks use are of this ilk. Sometimes, however, a guarantor will negotiate for a limit on the amount he is willing to stand for. For example, with accruals of interest, default interest, late fees and attorneys’ fees, the guarantor may want certainty on the top side of his obligation to the lender. Sometimes “I have been in the insurance business for more than 30 years, and never before has anyone ever seen such a dysfunctional and costly piece of legislation as Obama Care. ” the stack, but as an important agreement that ought to be of equal concern to all parties. There is a whole menagerie of specialized types of guarantees that can be useful to the commercial loan officer. What follows is a sampling of some of the most useful – and the some of the most inventively-named: Full or Limited Payment/ Duration Obviously, the lender prefers a guarantee of the entire debt – every red farthing – the primary obligor owes. Also called a “hell-or-high-water” guarantee, this agreement assures the obligee that the guarantor will pay all the obligations 8 UTAH BANKERS ASSOCIATION JULY/AUGUST 2011 the guarantor is simply not inclined to guarantee the totality of the primary obligor’s debt, or wants to limit his obligation to a single credit transaction. Then, a limited guarantee can be used. For example, a limited guarantee can guarantee only a specified amount or percentage of the obligation; only the principal of the debt; only the debtor’s operating expenses or the debt service; only costs of collection, or a deficiency; or only for a limited period of time. Where the guarantee is limited as to time, care must be taken to ensure that obligation’s termination point is clearly delineated, that is, the limited duration guarantee should say that the obligee must send a claim or file a lawsuit against the guarantor within six calendar months after the primary obligor fails to pay or respond to a judgment and only at that point does the time period begin to run. Reducing, or “Burn-Down,” Guarantees This type of guarantee provides that the guarantor’s potential liability will be reduced (or will disappear entirely) upon the occurrence of something other than the mere passage of time. For example, the guarantee could reduce in amount or proportion, if and when the borrower reaches certain revenue goals, sells a certain asset, perfects a patent, or some other occurrence. For purposes of drafting, it is imperative that the extraneous condition reducing the guarantee obligation be objective and relatively easy to ascertain, to avoid a dispute over whether the triggering event has actually taken place and the obligation has thus been reduced. Reducing guarantees are not uncommon in those construction loans where the lender is willing to look only to the primary obligor’s credit and the value of the real property collateral, once the realty has been improved by the completion of construction. Until then, the lender wants the guarantor to have plenty of incentive to see to it that the project is finished and the collateral has been enhanced. Thus, the guarantee should specify that the guarantor’s obligation will not be reduced until the improvements are substantially complete in accordance with plans and specifications approved by the lender; a FEATURE “Where the guaranteed obligation is a “joint” obligation, the obligee must join all co-guarantors in a single lawsuit if he hopes to recover from them all.” certificate of occupancy has been issued; or, a certain proportion of net leasable space has actually been leased. Joint, or Joint and Several Occasionally, a guarantor will bargain for only joint liability with a co-guarantor, as contrasted with joint and several liability. Where the guaranteed obligation is a “joint” obligation, the obligee must join all co-guarantors in a single lawsuit if he hopes to recover from them all. On the other hand, where the obligation is joint and several, the lender can proceed against less then all of the co-guarantors (or only one) for recovery of the entire guaranteed obligation. “Springing” or “Exploding” Guarantee Related to the “reducing” guarantee is the “exploding” guarantee, one where the guarantee of the entire debt (or some agreed-upon amount) becomes effective if the primary obligor breaches certain specific covenants or takes or allows someone else to take certain actions. These covenants usually involve a falsity of the borrower’s warranties and representations made in connection with the lender’s credit extension or the bankruptcy of the primary obligor. Obviously, the “exploding” guarantee is most useful where the guarantor controls the primary obligor; it is designed to motivate the guarantor to intercede for the lender’s benefit. Carve-Out Guarantee A “carve-out” guarantee (sometimes called a “bad-boy” guarantee) is used where the loan is made as non-recourse except on occurrence of the specified events the lender wishes to discourage – such as bankruptcy, false representations or financial reporting, the wrongful transfer of collateral, or misappropriation of rents, security deposits, reserve accounts or insurance proceeds – in which event the guarantor’s obligation becomes concurrent with the primary obligor’s. Most commercial banks and insurance companies do not make non-recourse loans, but carve-out guarantees are frequently used in securitized secured loans to single-asset/single-purpose entities, which typically have few assets besides the loan collateral. Where there is no recourse, the lender’s chief concern is that the borrower properly maintain the collateral and preserve its value, and refrain from bad acts such as fraudulent statements to the lender, misappropriation of insurance proceeds, failure to pay taxes, etc. “Good-Guy” Guarantee A perennial concern of lenders is that the repossession and disposition of the collateral be quick and painless. This worry can be abated by using a variation called a “good-guy” guarantee, where the guarantor is automatically released if and when the borrower transfers clear title to the collateral to the lender. “Snap-Back” Guarantee Once a guarantee has terminated and the guarantor is released, a “snap-back” agreement reinstates the guarantee if certain conditions or occurrences arise. For example, “snap-back” provisions can be used to resurrect a guarantee obligation that has been released by payment, if the lender is subsequently required to disgorge payments received to a bankruptcy trustee exercising the avoidance powers of 11 U.S.C. § 365. “Upstream”/“Downstream”/“Cross-Stream” Guarantees “Upstream” guarantees are the guarantees of a subsidiary’s obligations by a parent entity, and “downstream” guarantees are the reverse. A “cross-stream” guarantee is one affiliate’s guarantee of the debt of another affiliate of the same parent entity. The draftsman should carefully examine whether there is consideration for these kinds of guarantees as well as the potential ramification of the primary obligor’s bankruptcy. Because the parent entity’s equity interest in the subsidiary increases with payment of the subsidiary’s debts, “downstream” guarantees offer less risk to the lender than either “upstream” or “cross-stream” guarantees. Conclusion The guarantee agreement deserves more attention than it often gets in the commercial loan transaction, where it can be effectively tailored to meet the desires of the guarantor while still ensuring that the lender has a guarantee that will meet its needs quickly and without protracted litigation.

JULY/AUGUST 2011 UTAH BANKERS ASSOCIATION 9 10 UTAH BANKERS ASSOCIATION JULY/AUGUST 2011 FEATURE Utah Bankers Meet for 103rd Annual Convention Bankers from across Utah joined together for the 103rd annual UBA convention. This year’s convention was held June 19-22 in Sun Valley, Idaho. The banking landscape is changing, and those who attended the convention took a look at strategies for surviving and thriving in the months and years to come. Each year the vendor expo is the hub of activity as bankers arrive and register. Thirty six exhibitors lured attendees to their booths for a chance at a one-onone conversation with prize drawings, matchbox car tracks, bean bag toss and a casino wheel, just to name a few. Plus attendees that visited each booth and deposited a business card were entered into the grand prize $1,000 American Express cash card, which was ultimately won by Hayes Carr (Zions Bank). As the sun set and the mountain breezes blew, attendees and guests gathered at the beautiful Trail Creek Campground for a delicious western BBQ and a little country music. On Tuesday bankers got down to business. The opening speaker was Dr. Sean Snaith, Director of the Institute for Economics Competitiveness at the University of Central Florida. In this environment, few economists can make an audience smile, but Dr. Snaith provided a compelling look at the national economy with a sense of humor and fascinating detail. Following Dr. Snaith, was a Washington Update provided by ABA Executive Vice President, Floyd Stoner. Capping off the morning was Dr. Gary Rhoads, from Brigham Young University, providing fascinating insight into the link between customer satisfaction and employee engagement. After a delightful BBQ lunch by the Sun Valley duck pond, Mark Adams, President of Enthusiadams, lightened up the afternoon with a presentation on Wolf Pack Strategies for Bankers. His presentation reminded attendees that how we follow can be as important as how we lead. He likened humans to wolves in an interesting comparison of pack behavior and human interaction. For families and bankers alike, perhaps the highlight of the day was the famous and traditional UBA Bingo event. Over 300 bankers, spouses and family members joined in for an afternoon of fun and prizes. Wednesday morning bank CEOs and past chairmen met for a planning session for the coming year and, later in the general session, bankers received an update on Utah’s banking industry by G. Edward Leary, Commissioner of the Utah Department of Financial Institutions. Commissioner Leary’s presentation was followed by a detailed look at Utah’s Economy and the role of Utah’s banks presented by William Fruth, President of Policom, Inc. Mr. Fruth’s well researched presentation, looked at economic data from across Utah and compared it to similar markets across the country. He noted that for 2011 Salt Lake City is the 2nd strongest economy in the nation and that job growth in Utah outpaces much of the country. Promontory Financial Group. He provided valuable insights into the future of the banking industry. His previous experience with the Federal Reserve gives him a unique insider view of where the industry is going. The afternoon was open for recreation including trap and skeet shoot, bowling, ice skating, bicycle riding and paddle boats. The annual UBA golf tournament was held this year on Monday morning. This year’s winning team included Ed Cameron, Premier Data; Lamont Tingey & Mark Zupon, First Utah Bank and Carl Gebhardt, Bankers Bank of the West. The annual Chairman’s reception and dinner gala were held on Wednesday evening. Outgoing Chairman Matt Packard was honored and two bankers were honored with 40 Year Service Awards (see page 18). The convention was topped off with world class entertainment provided by comedian Bill Cosby in the beautiful Sun Valley Pavilion. A special thanks goes out to the vendors and sponsors that made this year’s event possible. The closing presentation was presented by Stephen M.

First, it would be prudent for the President and his advisors to learn that Jobs are not created without risk. The key is to make sure those risks are prudent. That’s what traditional bankers do. Second, risks are not taken without reward. Like it or not, people with wealth, won’t put that wealth at risk unless there is an upside. If you insist on limiting that upside or taking it away through taxation, they won’t put it at risk, at least not in this country. The United States has an amazing track record of creating jobs. Better than any country in the history of the world. So what has changed? Why aren’t we creating jobs today? Perhaps it is because we have a President who loathes the primary ingredients in the job-making process: risk, wealth and profits. The greatest risk to the American economy is the arrogance of public officials like Timothy Geithner who 14 UTAH BANKERS ASSOCIATION JULY/AUGUST 2011 believe that from their perch in Washington D.C. they know what is best for every community and every consumer in America. As for me, I have an enormous amount of confidence and trust in the bankers I know. No one has a broader understanding of what is going on in every aspect of their community that the traditional banker who lives and works there. Families need jobs, our local economies need to stabilize and grow, and critical services like education, infrastructure and local police and fire departments need reliable funding streams. I am proud to say that no one is working harder to make this happen than our traditional bankers.
