Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On April 25, 2006, the Registrant announced that Heritage Bank, the Registrant’s wholly owned subsidiary, and AmSouth Bank had entered into a Purchase and Assumption Agreement (the “Agreement”) under which Heritage Bank would acquire four AmSouth Bank branches located in Kingston Springs, Ashland City, Pleasant View and Erin, Tennessee. On June 29, 2006, Heritage Bank completed the acquisition. A copy of the press release, dated June 29, 2006, which describes the transaction is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

On June 30, 2006, following a review of settlement adjustments, Heritage Bank determined that it had assumed approximately $65 million of deposits liabilities and acquired approximately $34 million in loans. Heritage Bank also acquired four parcels of real property on which the branches are located and substantially all of the assets used in the operation of the branches. Because the value of the liabilities assumed by Heritage Bank exceeded the sum of the value of the assets acquired, the amount of working cash transferred, and the amount paid as a deposit premium, Heritage Bank received a payment of approximately $22 million from AmSouth Bank. This amount is subject to adjustments within thirty (30) days in a manner provided for in the Agreement.
