future events, results or performance, and such statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Certain risks and uncertainties and Cascade Bancorp's success in managing such risks and uncertainties
could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, including among others, the following factors: local and
national economic conditions could be less favorable than expected or could have a more direct and pronounced effect on us than
expected and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition; the local housing/real estate market could continue
to decline for a longer period than we anticipate; the risks presented by a continued economic recession, which could continue
to adversely affect credit quality, collateral values, including real estate collateral and OREO properties, investment values,
liquidity and loan originations, reserves for loan losses and charge offs of loans and loan portfolio delinquency rates and may
be exacerbated by our concentration of operations in the States of Oregon and Idaho generally, and Central, Southern and Northwest
Oregon, as well as the greater Boise/Treasure Valley, Idaho area, specifically; interest rate changes could significantly reduce
net interest income and negatively affect funding sources; competition among financial institutions could increase significantly;
competition or changes in interest rates could negatively affect net interest margin, as could other factors listed from time to
time in Cascade Bancorp's Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") reports; the reputation of the financial
services industry could further deteriorate, which could adversely affect our ability to access markets for funding and to acquire
and retain customers; and existing regulatory requirements, changes in regulatory requirements and legislation (including without
limitation, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act) and our inability to meet those requirements, including
capital requirements and increases in our deposit insurance premium, could adversely affect the businesses in which we are engaged,
our results of operations and financial condition. Such forward-looking statements also include, but are not limited to, statements

conditions and related uncertainties; (vi) liquidity risk affecting Cascade's ability to meet its obligations when they come
due; (vii) excessive loan losses; (viii) the effect of changes in governmental regulations; and (ix) other factors we discuss or
