16.          COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Lending and Letter of Credit Commitments

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into various commitments to extend credit which are not reflected in the financial statements. These commitments consist of the undisbursed balance on personal, and commercial lines, including commercial real estate secured lines of credit, and of the undisbursed funds on construction and development loans. The Company also issues standby letter of credit commitments, primarily for the third party performance obligations of clients.

The following table presents a summary of commitments described above as of the dates indicated:

Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses. The actual liquidity needs or the credit risk that the Company will experience will be lower than the contractual amount of commitments to extend credit because a significant portion of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon. The commitments are generally variable rate and include unfunded home equity lines of credit, commercial real estate construction where disbursement is made over the course of construction, commercial revolving lines of credit, and unsecured personal lines of credit. The Company’s outstanding loan commitments are made using the same underwriting standards as comparable outstanding loans. The reserve associated with these commitments included in interest payable and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets was $415,000 at both December 31, 2020 and 2019.

Commercial Real Estate Concentrations

At December 31, 2020 and 2019, in management’s judgment, a concentration of loans existed in commercial real estate related loans. The Company’s commercial real estate loans are secured by owner-occupied and non-owner occupied commercial real estate and multifamily properties. Although management believes that loans within these concentrations have no more than the normal risk of collectability, a decline in the performance of the economy in general or a decline in real estate value in the Company’s primary market areas in particular, could have an adverse impact on collectability.

Other Assets

The Company has commitments to fund Low Income Housing Tax Credit Partnerships (“LIHTC”) and a Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”). At December 31, 2020, the remaining commitments to the LIHTC and SBIC were approximately $899,000 and $122,000, respectively. At December 31, 2019, the remaining commitment to the LIHTC and SBIC were $3.0 million and $473,000, respectively.

Deposits

At December 31, 2020, approximately $170.1 million, or 9.3%, of the Company’s deposits are derived from the top ten depositors. At December 31, 2019, approximately $157.0 million, or 9.2%, of the Company’s deposits are derived from the top ten depositors.

Local Agency Deposits

In the normal course of business, the Company accepts deposits from local agencies. The Company is required to provide collateral for certain local agency deposits in the states of California, Colorado, New Mexico and Washington. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the FHLB issued letters of credit on behalf of the Company totaling $30.1 million and $21.5 million, respectively, as collateral for local agency deposits.
