Non-performing assets were $41.5 million at the end of the second quarter and represented 0.73% of loans. Included in non-performing loans are $26.8 million in the residential mortgage loans as of June 30.

Non-interest income for the second quarter was $46.8 million compared to $48.1 million in the first quarter, and $49.5 million in the second quarter of 2011. The decrease to the first quarter was primarily due to a $3.5 million gain from the sale of our equity interest and two leverage leases, partially offset by a $1 million loss on a direct financing lease in the first quarter. The decrease compared to the second quarter of 2011 was primarily due to $4 million lower debit interchange revenue as a result of the Durbin amendment.

Mortgage banking results were strong in the quarter, producing $7.6 million of income versus $5.1 million in the first quarter. Year to date non-interest income was $94.9 million compared to $103.4 million in 2011. The decrease was primarily due to lower debit interchange revenue and $6.1 million in securities gains in 2011, partially offset by higher mortgage banking income.

Non-interest expense totaled $80.7 million in the second quarter, compared to $85.2 million in the first quarter and $93.8 million in the second quarter of 2011. The increase compared to the first quarter was due to lower salaries and benefits expense and $1.2 million for our personal computer refresh program in the first quarter. The decrease compared to the second quarter of 2011 was primarily due to the $9 million legal settlement related to overdraft plaints in 2011 and lower salaries and benefits.
