Commitments

During the second quarter of 2018, Mid Penn entered into a commitment to purchase a limited partnership interest in a low-income housing project to construct thirty-seven apartments and common amenities in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania. All of the units are intended to qualify for Federal Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (“LIHTCs”) as provided for in Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Mid Penn’s limited partner capital contribution commitment is $7,579,000, which will be paid in installments over the course of construction of the low-income housing facilities. Each installment payment is conditional upon both Mid Penn’s review and approval of the installment payment certificate and continued compliance with the terms of the original partnership agreement. The investment in the limited partnership will be reported in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and amortized using the straight-line method over a ten year period. The project has been conditionally awarded $861,000 in annual LIHTCs by the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency, with a total anticipated LIHTC amount of $8,613,000 to be awarded to Mid Penn over the ten year amortization period. Mid Penn’s commitment to initiate investments in the limited partnership interest was conditional upon (i) the review and approval of all closing documents, (ii) an opinion letter for tax counsel to the Partnership that the project qualifies for the LIHTCs, and (iii) review and approval by Mid Penn of other documents it deemed necessary. All such initial conditions were satisfied and Mid Penn began funding the investment during 2018. As of December 31, 2018, the total investment in the limited partnership was $1,710,000 and was reported in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Contingencies

In a letter dated January 24, 2019, notification was received from the FDIC indicating that Mid Penn was eligible for small bank assessment credits. In general, banks that did not pay surcharges during the credit calculation period, defined as the third quarter of 2016 through the third quarter of 2018, are eligible for small bank assessment credits. Small banks with total consolidated assets of less than $10 billion were awarded assessment credits for the portion of their assessments that contributed to the growth in the reserve ratio from 1.15 percent to 1.35 percent. Each individual bank’s credit share is calculated as the product of the apportioned share of credits to an individual eligible institution multiplied by the total aggregate credits, and the FDIC’s preliminary estimate of Mid Penn’s total assessment credit is $492,000. The small bank assessment credits are contingent on the reserve ratio reaching at least 1.38 percent, which had not occurred as of December 31, 2018. The credit can only be applied against future assessments, is not refundable in cash, and cannot be sold.

Litigation

Mid Penn is subject to lawsuits and claims arising out of its normal conduct of business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition of Mid Penn.
