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 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 and is expected to be fully funded in 2020. As of December 31, 2019, the units were substantially complete and met the occupancy requirements necessary to begin recognizing the related amortization and tax credits using the cost amortization method over a ten year period.  The carrying value of Mid Penn’s investment in the limited partnership is reported within other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and totaled $7,249,000 at December 31, 2019 and $1,710,000 at December 31, 2018.

 

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.
