COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
We are a defendant in various litigation matters arising in the ordinary course of business, some of which involve claims for damages that are substantial in amount. When a potential loss event occurs, we estimate the ultimate cost of the claim and accrue the amount in Other current and long-term liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets when probable and estimable. In addition, we have established receivables from third-party insurance providers for claim amounts in excess of the risk retained by our captive insurance company. In total, these receivables were $38.1 million and $40.6 million as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and are included in Notes and other receivables and Long-term receivables on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The following table shows the professional indemnity accrual activity and related payments.

As a lender in the Fannie Mae Delegated Underwriting and Servicing ("DUS") program, we retain a portion of the risk of loss for loans we originate and sell under the DUS program. The net loss on defaulted loans are shared with Fannie Mae based upon established loss-sharing ratios. Generally, our share of losses is capped at 20% of the principal balance of the mortgage at origination. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had loans, funded and sold, subject to such loss-sharing arrangements with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $8.6 billion and $8.4 billion, respectively.
As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, loan loss accruals were both $17.5 million and are included in Other liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. There were no loan losses incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.
