On November 20, 2015, the Company entered into a Subordinated Note Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with 14 institutional accredited investors under which the Company issued an aggregate of $10,000,000 of subordinated notes (the “Notes”) to the institutional accredited investors. The Notes have a maturity date of December 1, 2025. The Notes bear interest, payable on the 1st of June and December of each year, commencing June 1, 2016, at a fixed rate of 6.75% per year for the first five years, and thereafter will bear a floating interest rate of LIBOR plus 512.8 basis points. The Notes are not convertible into common stock or preferred stock and are not callable by the holders. The Company has the right to redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, at any interest payment date on or after December 1, 2020 and prior to the maturity date, but in all cases in a principal amount with integral multiples of $1,000, plus interest accrued and unpaid through the date of redemption. If an event of default occurs, such as the bankruptcy of the Company, the holder of a Note may declare the principal amount of the Note to be due and immediately payable. The Notes are unsecured, subordinated obligations of the Company and will rank junior in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future senior indebtedness. The Notes qualify as Tier 2 capital for regulatory reporting.

As part of the transaction, the Company incurred issuance costs totaling $338,813. These costs are being amortized over the life of the Notes. The following table summarizes the balance of the Notes and related issuance costs at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019:
