Purdue Employees Federal Credit Union ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT and CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2008 and 2007 2008 Treasurer’s Report On behalf of your volunteer Board of Directors I am pleased to report that 2008 was another stable year of growth for Purdue Employees Federal Credit Union (PEFCU). Your cooperative organization remains financially strong. I trust this is comforting given all the negative economic and financial institution news that exists today. Nationally, 2008 saw the worst economic decline since the Great Depression of the 1930’s. The decline in housing value led to the collapse of Wall Street and subsequently a credit crunch that has exposed a near decade of abuses and greed surrounding illogical lending practices. Many financial institutions have directly experienced the negative impact of moving away from traditional common sense lending practices. While blame may not be shared by all, the unfortunate reality is all Americans are negatively impacted by the damage. In contrast to many financial institutions, your credit union completed another profitable year of responsible lending. No credit crunch at PEFCU, as the membership’s demand for loans, including home ownership, was met. While safe and sound lending practices are a strong foundation for PEFCU’s success, another is the stable economic base of Purdue University and the Lafayette community. While home foreclosures in the Lafayette community are increasing, the rate of growth has slowed vs the pace experienced in many parts of the country. National unemployment peaked at 7.1% at year end 2008 with Indiana reaching 8.1%. The Lafayette community remains lower at 6.2% but unfortunately has increased from last years 3.7%. The PEFCU board and management stand on a firm foundation for navigating what is expected to be a rocky 2009. Capital remains strong and is expected to support any indirect impacts the economy will throw at your credit union. PEFCU’s net loans outstanding grew by 12.4% or $48.3 million (M) in 2008. First Mortgage loans remained in strong demand by members with $117.2M in mortgage originations. Mortgage loans outstanding increased $35.5M (17.6%) for 2008. PEFCU completed a second calendar year offering the Purdue Alumni Association Visa affinity credit card program. The popularity of the affinity program is catching on as credit card balances grew another $4.3M (12.8%) for 2008. PEFCU’s commercial relationships grew in 2008 as well with Commercial loans outstanding increasing $9.2M (19%). The student lending landscape changed as Purdue University moved away from the FELP student loan program to Government Direct. As a result PEFCU no longer participates in the guaranteed student lending business. PEFCU’s balance sheet strength is grounded in a well‐diversified loan portfolio with strong credit quality. Many sectors of the financial industry are negatively impacted by poor lending practices, PEFCU’s credit quality remained strong with loan delinquency (0.36%) remaining well below our peer group average of 1.22%. The relatively low amount of loan losses positively contributed to the bottom line and benefited your credit union. Charge‐offs of .29% for 2008 compare favorably to our peer group average of .79% charge‐off. Loan funding is primarily drawn from member deposits and supplemented with institutional borrowings. Deposit growth was $58.0M (13.7%) in 2008. This was a strong improvement to the 4.4% growth of 2007. Overall member product usage showed continued strength. All deposit categories experienced growth with Money Market accounts growing the most at $27.3M (33.2%). Earnings for 2008 improved from the .34% return on average assets (ROA) experienced in 2007. Earnings of $2.204 million generated an ROA of .42% for the year. Member service investment decisions are showing positive revenue growth trends. Strong revenue growth from interest margin and mortgage production is improving profitability. Credit card program expansion continues as balances and transactions grew. Members with a credit card increased from 43.7% to 44.9% during 2008. Membership grew 1.8% for the year to 57,772, the strongest growth seen for many years. The board and management believe PEFCU’s core business model is strong and ready to counteract the negative impacts of this economy. Capital, or PEFCU’s regulatory net worth, ended the year at $44.3M or 8.6% of average assets. Stable earnings and capital enable PEFCU to make enhancements to products and services while also providing a cushion for future economic and marketplace uncertainties. The Board of Directors and management team appreciate the challenge of meeting your service expectations while balancing the income retention necessary for PEFCU’s long‐term financial health. Your member‐owned organization is working hard to provide you and your family with a “collective” financial service value exceeding that of any other local financial service provider. We look forward to continuing our quest to be your financial partner for life! Robert W. Bain Treasurer 2008 Supervisory Committee Report The Supervisory Committee is a volunteer group of PEFCU members, which is appointed by the Board of Directors to ensure that the financial condition of the credit union is accurately and fairly presented in the organization’s financial statements, and that the credit union’s management practices and procedures are in accordance with federal regulation and are sufficient to safeguard member assets and sensitive member information. Under the direction of the Supervisory Committee, an annual audit is performed by an independent, outside accounting firm with proven knowledge of credit union regulations and operations. This year that firm is BKD. The committee then works with the board and the credit union management team to address any areas of concern raised in the audit. After completion of this year’s external audit, BKD met with the Supervisory Committee on March 12th. The discussion items included a complete review of the financial statement and audit reports. BKD concluded with an unqualified opinion of no significant findings and no material misstatements in PEFCU’s financial reporting. All financials and required letters were reviewed with no major exceptions found. So once again this year the result of the audit is very positive news. The Internal Audit staff also reports to the Supervisory Committee. They carefully examine and monitor all procedures and financial statements. The internal audit and the information technology security audit programs assure the protection of your information and your assets that you have entrusted to the Credit Union. The Internal Audit staff is also responsible for compliance and meeting the industry’s ever greater demands of procedures and exams. Our clean audit from BKD reflects the good leadership and careful work of the Internal Audit staff of PEFCU. The Supervisory committee would like to acknowledge the outstanding support and professionalism exhibited by the Credit Union staff. We thank the management team for exhibiting exceptional care and high ethical standards during these challenging financial times. I would also like to acknowledge and thank all the members of the Supervisory Committee for volunteering their time and expertise. It is a pleasure to serve you, the members. Christiane E.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2008 and 2007
Note 1:
Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Purdue Employees Federal Credit
Union (Credit Union), and its wholly owned credit union service organization, CU Channels, LLC.
(CUSO). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Nature of Operations
Purdue Employees Federal Credit Union (Credit Union) is a federally chartered credit union with
locations in Lafayette and West Lafayette, Indiana. The Credit Union offers a broad range of
financial services to its members. The Credit Union’s primary services include accepting
members’ deposits and making loans. The Credit Union grants loans to members who are
primarily individuals (including family members) employed at or attending Purdue University
campuses. The majority of its loans are collateralized by specific items, including consumer assets,
residential real estate and member share balances. Additional services include financial planning,
investment, trust and insurance services to Credit Union members through PEFCU Trust and
Financial Services, a third-party provider. The CUSO provides services to non-member Credit
Unions, primarily first mortgage loan origination and servicing for other credit unions. The CUSO
is a 14% owner of Passageways LLC, a software development company providing portal solutions
to credit unions.
Use of Estimates
To prepare financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available
information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the
financial statements, and future results could differ from those estimates. The collectibility of
loans, valuation and amortization of loan servicing rights and fair values of financial instruments
are particularly subject to change.
Cash Equivalents
The Credit Union considers all liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less
to be cash equivalents.
Trading Activities
The Credit Union has acquired certain investments which had a fair value of $931,631 and
$1,338,690 as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Such investments are recorded at fair
value with changes in fair value included in earnings. Quoted market prices, when available, are
used to determine the fair value of trading instruments. If quoted market prices are not available,
then fair values are estimated using pricing models, quoted prices of instruments with similar
characteristics or discounted cash flows. Total security gains (losses) recognized on the income
statement were approximately $(407,000) and $83,000 for 2008 and 2007, respectively.

December 31, 2008 and 2007
Securities
Available-for-sale securities, which include any debt security for which the Credit Union has no
immediate plan to sell but which may be sold in the future, are carried at fair value. Unrealized
gains and losses are recorded in other comprehensive income.
Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts are recorded as interest income from
securities. Realized gains and losses are recorded as net security gains (losses). Gains and losses
on sales of securities are determined on the specific-identification method.
Corporate Credit Union Member Shares and Paid-in Capital
Corporate credit union member shares and paid-in capital consists of the following at
December 31, 2008 and 2007:
2008
Members United paid-in capital
WesCorp member shares

The paid-in capital with Members United Corporate Federal Credit Union (Members United)
represents a twenty-year deposit of $1,500,000 and has a floating rate, which was 1.00% at
December 31, 2008. The principal is due at the maturity date of June 25, 2023. The funds are
callable only at the option of Members United and only if Members United meets its minimum
level of required capital after the funds are called.
The member shares of Western Corporate Federal Credit Union (WesCorp) denote the Credit
Union’s ownership interest in WesCorp. Member shares are required for membership in WesCorp
and require a three-year notice for withdrawal. These shares are not subject to share insurance
coverage by the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund and, in the event of liquidation of
WesCorp, are payable only after satisfaction of all other claims. The member share balance is
adjusted twice per year on a predetermined formula. As discussed in Note 12, WesCorp was taken
into conservatorship by the NCUA in March of 2009.
Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) Stock
FHLB stock is a required investment based upon predetermined formulas and is carried at cost.
The FHLB stock may only be sold to the FHLB at par value.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2008 and 2007
Loans Held for Sale
Mortgage and student loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at
the lower of cost or fair value in the aggregate. Decrease in the amount of loans held for sale
between 2008 and 2007 is due to the discontinuation of student lending through the participation of
the Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) program. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized
through a valuation allowance by charges to income. Loans sold in the secondary market are
primarily sold with the servicing of the loans being retained.
Loans
Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity
or payoff are stated at the unpaid principal balances, plus net deferred loan origination costs, less
an allowance for loan losses.
Interest income is reported on the interest method and includes amortization of net deferred loan
fees and costs over the loan term. Interest income on loans is discontinued if management believes
collection of interest is doubtful. All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on
nonaccrual are reversed against interest income. Interest received on such 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 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 a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan
losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan
balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management
estimates the allowance balance required based on past loan loss experience, known and inherent
risks in the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral
values, economic conditions and other factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it
requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes
available. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is
available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged-off.
Loans are considered impaired if full principal or interest payments are not anticipated. Loans
considered impaired are reduced to the present value of expected future cash flows or to the fair
value of the collateral, by allocating a portion of the allowance for loan losses to such loans. If
these allocations cause the allowance for loan losses to require an increase, such increase is
reported as a provision for loan losses. Larger-balance mortgage loans are evaluated individually
for impairment. All other loans are considered smaller-balance homogeneous loans and are
evaluated for impairment in total. Loans are individually evaluated for impairment when payments
are delayed, typically for 90 days or more.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2008 and 2007
Premises and Equipment
Premises and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is
computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. These
assets are reviewed for impairment when events indicate the carrying amount may not be
recoverable. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful lives
of the related assets or the lease term.
NCUSIF Deposit
The deposit in the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF) is required by NCUA
regulations in an amount equal to 1 percent of the Credit Union’s insured shares. The deposit
would be refunded to the Credit Union if its insurance coverage is terminated, it converts to
insurance coverage from another source, or the operations of the fund are transferred from the
NCUA Board. As discussed in Note 12, the Credit Union expects to write off approximately
$2,795,000 of this deposit in 2009.
NCUSIF Insurance Premiums
A credit union is required to pay an annual insurance premium equal to one-twelfth of 1 percent of
its total insured shares, unless the payment is waived or reduced by the NCUA Board. The NCUA
Board waived the 2008 and 2007 insurance premium. As discussed in Note 12, the Credit Union
expects the NCUSIF insurance premium to be increased significantly in 2009.
Foreclosed Assets
Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at
fair value less cost to sell at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to
foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the
lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Revenue and expenses from operations and
changes in the valuation allowance are included in net income or expense from foreclosed assets.
Loan Servicing Rights
Loan servicing rights represent the fair value of retained servicing rights on loans sold. The
capitalized value of loan servicing rights is included in other assets on the consolidated balance
sheets and is amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing revenues.
Fair value is based on market prices for comparable mortgage servicing contracts, when available,
or alternatively, is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future
net servicing income. The valuation model incorporates assumptions that market participations
would use in estimating future net servicing income, such as the cost to service, the discount rate,
the custodial earnings rate, an inflation rate, ancillary income, prepayment speeds and default rates
and losses. The Credit Union compares the valuation model inputs and results to published
industry data in order to validate the model results and assumptions. All classes of servicing assets
are subsequently measured using the amortization method which requires servicing rights to be
amortized into non-interest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net
servicing income of the underlying loans.

Purdue Employees Federal Credit Union
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2008 and 2007
Impairment of mortgage servicing rights is assessed based on the fair value of those rights as
compared to the carrying amount. For purposes of measuring impairment, servicing rights are
stratified based on predominant risk characteristics, including loan type, term, age and note rate.
Impairment represents the amount by which the amortized cost of an individual stratum exceeds its
fair value, and is recognized through a valuation allowance. Amortization and impairment
adjustments are recorded with net loan servicing fee income.
Members' Deposits
Members' deposits are subordinated to all other liabilities of the Credit Union upon liquidation.
Interest on members' deposits is based on available earnings and is not guaranteed by the Credit
Union. Interest rates on members' deposits are set by the board of directors, based on an evaluation
of a number of factors, including market conditions.
Members' Equity
The Credit Union is required by regulation to maintain a statutory reserve. This reserve, which
represents a regulatory restriction of retained earnings, is not available for the payment of interest
to members.
Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income or loss. Other
comprehensive income or loss includes unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale,
which is recognized as a separate component of members’ equity.
Income Taxes
The Credit Union is exempt by statute from federal and state income taxes.
Current Economic Conditions
The current economic environment presents financial institutions with unprecedented
circumstances and challenges which in some cases have resulted in large declines in the fair values
of investments and other assets, constraints on liquidity and significant credit quality problems,
including severe volatility in the valuation of real estate and other collateral supporting loans. The
financial statements have been prepared using values and information currently available to the
Credit Union.
Given the volatility of current economic conditions, the values of assets and liabilities recorded in
the financial statements could change rapidly, resulting in material future adjustments in asset
values, the allowance for loan losses, capital that could negatively impact the Credit Union’s ability
to meet regulatory capital requirements and maintain sufficient liquidity.

Gross gains of $17,690 resulting from sales of available-for-sale securities were realized for 2008.
There were no gains or losses realized from maturities or calls of available-for-sale securities in
2007. No securities were sold during 2007.
Certain investments in debt securities are reported in the financial statements at an amount less than
their historical cost. Total fair value of these investments at December 31, 2008 and 2007 was
$2,846,249 and $14,979,507, which is approximately 23% and 92%, respectively, of the Credit
Union’s available-for-sale investment portfolio. These declines primarily resulted from changes in
market interest rates.
Based on evaluation of available evidence, including recent changes in market interest rates, credit
rating information and information obtained from regulatory filings, management believes the
declines in fair value for these securities are temporary.
Should the impairment of any of these securities become other than temporary, the cost basis of the
investment will be reduced and the resulting loss recognized in net income in the period the otherthan-temporary impairment is identified.

Union’s contribution and expense for the pension plan is 11% (reduced by forfeitures) of annual
wages for eligible employees and was approximately $558,000 and $509,000 in 2008 and 2007.
Note 9:
Disclosures About Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities
Effective January 1, 2008, the Credit Union adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 157 (FAS 157), Fair Value Measurements. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a
framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
FAS 157 has been applied prospectively as of the beginning of the year.
FAS 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. FAS 157
also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable
inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard
describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2
Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets
or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are
observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the
full term of the assets or liabilities
Level 3
Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are
significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at
fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as
well as the general classification of such assets and liabilities pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.
Trading and Available-for-Sale Securities
Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within
Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are
estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or
discounted cash flows. Level 2 securities include all mortgage-backed securities and mutual funds.
In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within
Level 3 of the hierarchy. No securities are classified within Level 3.
The following table presents the fair value measurements of assets and liabilities recognized in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level
within the FAS 157 fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall at December 31,
2008:

The following methods were used to estimate the fair value of all other financial instruments
recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at amounts other than fair value.
Cash, Interest-bearing Deposits, Corporate Credit Union Member Shares and Paid-in
Capital and Federal Home Loan Bank Stock
The carrying amount approximates fair value.
Loans
The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at
which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same
remaining maturities. Loans with similar characteristics were aggregated for purposes of the
calculations. The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates its fair value.

NCUSIF Deposit and Other Investments
The fair value of the NCUSIF deposit approximates the carrying value.
Interest Receivable
The fair value of interest receivable approximates the carrying value.
Members’ Deposits
Deposits include demand deposits, savings accounts and certain money market deposits. The
carrying amount approximates fair value. The fair value of fixed-maturity time deposits is
estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies the rates currently offered for
deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Short-Term Borrowings
The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Note 10: Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
In the normal course of business there are outstanding commitments and contingent liabilities, such
as commitments to extend credit, which are not included in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements. The Credit Union’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by
the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit is represented by the
contractual or notional amount of those instruments. The Credit Union uses the same credit
policies in making such commitments as it does for instruments that are included in the
consolidated balance sheets.
Financial instruments whose contract amount represents credit risk as of December 31 were as
follows:
Commitments to extend credit
2008
2007
$ 171,979,803
$ 152,971,356
The Credit Union has entered into noncancelable operating lease and other agreements. The leases
are for office space.
Future minimum commitments at year-end 2008 for all noncancelable lease and other agreements
are summarized as follows:

The amount expensed for 2008 and 2007 related to the lease and other agreements was $1,342,000
and $1,323,000, respectively.
In the normal course of business, the Credit Union is subject to various legal actions. Management
believes that the results of these legal actions will not have a material adverse effect on the Credit
Union's financial position.

Note 11: Regulatory Capital
Credit unions are subject to regulatory capital requirements prescribed by a federal regulatory
agency. There are five classifications based on the combined result of quarterly net worth and riskbased net worth requirements: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized,
significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to
represent overall financial condition. The net worth requirement is based on net worth to total
assets. The risk-based net worth requirement requires net worth to exceed the sum of various asset
categories times risk factors for each category, and must be met (if this requirement exceeds 6%) to
be classified as well or adequately capitalized. If classified as adequately capitalized, net worth
and the regular reserve account must increase quarterly by .1% of assets. If undercapitalized, a net
worth restoration plan must also be filed and asset growth and business lending are restricted.
Additional regulatory actions may be taken at lower capital classifications such as restriction on
interest, required merger or liquidation. The Credit Union’s current capital classification is well
capitalized. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes
have changed the Credit Union’s category.
Actual and required capital amounts (in millions) and ratios as of December 31 are presented

Note 12: Subsequent Events
During 2009, the National Credit Union Association (NCUA) announced the Corporate
Stabilization Program. Due to recent developments with corporate credit unions relating to
pending losses within these corporate credit union's investment holdings, the NCUA has notified
the Credit Union, as a natural person credit union along with all other NCUA-insured natural
person credit unions, the following actions will be taken. Under the Corporate Stabilization
Program, it is anticipated that the Credit Union, along with all natural person credit unions, will be
required to write off approximately 69% of its National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund
(NCUSIF) deposit as a charge to earnings in 2009, which is estimated to be approximately
$2,795,000. Additionally, the NCUA will seek to replenish the NCUSIF through an increased
assessment to all natural person credit unions. Under current regulations, it is expected that the
NCUSIF insurance premium assessed in 2009 for the Credit Union will be approximately
$1,215,000 to replenish the NCUSIF. The NCUA is currently reviewing alternatives whereby the
NCUA may not require the full assessment of $1,215,000 be recognized in 2009.
Additionally, during March 2009, the NCUA took U.S. Central Federal Credit Union and Western
Corporate (WesCorp) Federal Credit Union into conservatorship. At December 31, 2008, the
Credit Union had approximately $10.0 million in an interest-bearing deposit account, $1.5 million
in certificates of deposit and approximately $629,000 in membership capital with WesCorp. It is
anticipated the Credit Union will have to write off $629,000, which represents the membership
capital during 2009. All amounts other than membership capital accounts on deposit with a
corporate credit union are fully insured as a result of actions taken as part of the Corporate
Stabilization Program and will be fully recovered by the Credit Union.
