The amounts transferred have been accounted for as sales and are therefore not included in the Company’s accompanying unaudited interim Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company and participating lenders share ratably in cash flows and any gains or losses that may result from a borrower’s lack of compliance with contractual terms of the loan. The Company continues to service the loans on behalf of the participating lenders and, as such, collects cash payments from the borrowers, remits payments to participating lenders and disburses required escrow funds to relevant parties. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company was servicing loans for participants aggregating $260.5 million and $195.2 million, respectively. Acquired Loans The loans purchased from Coastway Bancorp, Inc. included $5.4 million in purchased credit impaired (“PCI”) loans. PCI loans were primarily residential real estate loans.

No additional funds are committed to be advanced in connection with impaired loans. There were no material TDR loan modifications for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. The recorded investment in TDRs was $17.0 million and $20.0 million at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Commercial TDRs totaled $2.5 million and $3.0 million at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The remainder of the TDRs outstanding at the end of these periods were residential loans. Non-accrual TDRs totaled $3.9 million and $5.0 million at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Of these loans, $2.5 million and $3.0 million were non-accrual commercial TDRs at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. All TDR loans are considered impaired and management performs a discounted cash flow calculation to determine the amount of impairment reserve required on each loan. TDR loans which subsequently default are reviewed to determine if the loan should be deemed collateral dependent. In either case, any reserve required is recorded as part of the allowance for loan losses. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, there were no payment defaults on TDRs. Credit Quality Information The Company uses a ten- grade internal loan rating system for commercial real estate, commercial construction and commercial loans, as follows: Loans rated 1 – 6 are considered “pass” rated loans with low to average risk. Loans rated 7 are considered “special mention.” These loans are starting to show signs of potential weakness and are being closely monitored by management. Loans rated 8 are considered “substandard.” Generally, a loan is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligors and/or the collateral pledged. There is a distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the weakness is not corrected. Loans rated 9 are considered “doubtful.” Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, highly questionable and improbable. Loans rated 10 are considered “uncollectible” (loss), and of such little value that their continuance as loans is not warranted. Loans not rated consist primarily of certain smaller balance commercial real estate and commercial loans that are managed by exception. On an annual basis, or more often if needed, the Company formally reviews on a risk adjusted basis, the ratings on all commercial real estate, construction and commercial loans. Semi-annually, the Company engages an independent third party to review a significant portion of loans within these segments. Management uses the results of these reviews as part of its annual review process. On a monthly basis, the Company reviews the residential construction, residential real estate and consumer installment portfolios for credit quality primarily through the use of delinquency reports.
