Unfunded Commitments

At September 30, 2020, the Company was committed to an additional $13,342,248 in construction loans that can be drawn by the borrower when certain conditions are met.

Other

In the normal course of its business, the Company is named as a party-defendant because it is a mortgagee having interests in real properties that are being foreclosed upon, usually because the owner failed to pay property taxes. The Company actively monitors these actions and, in all cases, believes there remains sufficient value in the subject property to assure that no loan impairment exists. At September 30, 2020, there were eight such properties, representing approximately $1.3 million in mortgages receivable.
