 a quarterly dividend of $0.16875 per share, totaling $54,000, which was paid on July July: see month.  15, 1999, to holders of Series A preferred stock.

The company completed the acquisition of American American, river, 30 mi (48 km) long, rising in N central Calif. in the Sierra Nevada and flowing SW into the Sacramento River at Sacramento. The discovery of gold at Sutter's Mill (see Sutter, John Augustus) along the river in 1848 led to the California gold rush of  Independent Bank (AIB AIB n abbr (BRIT) (= Accident Investigation Bureau) → oficina de investigación de accidentes

AIB n abbr (Brit) (= Accident Investigation Bureau) →
) on March 8, 1999, and reported a net loss of $93,000 in the first quarter of 1999. In addition, the company successfully increased the capital of the corporation through the issuance of $6.6 million of trust preferred securities and the addition of $2.1 million of common stock in the first quarter.

The second quarter completed the consolidation phase of the AIB acquisition, symbolized by the conversion of the banks' separate data- processing systems onto one common platform. As can be seen in the selected financial data section below, the company's capital ratios are now stronger than before the acquisition. The company has also successfully merged the two banks' loan portfolios. As can be seen below, delinquencies and problem loans remain well controlled and the company now has only one remaining OREO property on its books at $58,000.

As of June 30, 1999, the company is now a $131 million banking organization with one common name. Simultaneous with the acquisition of AIB, the company hired Anthony Xinis, formerly a senior vice president at Wells Fargo Wells Fargo
