Among other things, the CARES Act authorized the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) to temporarily guarantee loans under a new 7(a) loan program called the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). As a qualified SBA lender, the Company was authorized to originate PPP loans. PPP loans have: (a) an interest rate of 1.0%, (b) a two year or five-year loan term to maturity; and (c) principal and interest payments deferred until the SBA remits the forgiven amount to the Company or 10 months from the end of the covered period, as defined. The SBA will guarantee 100% of the PPP loans made to eligible borrowers. The entire principal amount of the borrower’s PPP loan, including any accrued interest, is eligible to be reduced by the loan forgiveness amount under the PPP so long as employee and compensation levels of the business are maintained and 60% of the loan proceeds are used for payroll expense, with the remaining 40% of the loan proceeds used for other qualifying expenses. The Company did not record a provision for credit losses for PPP loans in 2022, 2021 or 2020 due to the SBA guarantee. Directors and officers of the Company and their associates are clients of, and have other transactions with, the Company in the normal course of business. All loans and commitments included in such transactions were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons and do not involve more than normal risk of collection or present other unfavorable features. Asset Quality The Company’s philosophy toward managing its loan portfolios is predicated upon careful monitoring, which stresses early detection and response to delinquent and default situations. The Company seeks to make arrangements to resolve any delinquent or default situation over the shortest possible time frame. As a general rule, loans more than 90 days past due with respect to principal or interest are classified as non-accrual loans. The Company may use discretion regarding other loans over 90 days past due if the loan is well secured and/or in process of collection. The following tables set forth information regarding non-performing loans disaggregated by loan category: December 31, 2022 Residential Commercial Home Commercial and Total (dollars in thousands) Non-performing loans: Non-accrual loans $ 4,733 $ 311 $ 722 $ 73 $ 5,839 Troubled debt restructurings 622 — — 81 703 Total $ 5,355 $ 311 $ 722 $ 154 $ 6,542 December 31, 2021 Residential Commercial Home Commercial and Total (dollars in thousands) Non-performing loans: Non-accrual loans $ 3,777 $ 517 $ 223 $ 111 $ 4,628 Troubled debt restructurings 652 — — 106 758 Total $ 4,429 $ 517 $ 223 $ 217 $ 5,386 It is the Company’s policy to reverse any accrued interest when a loan is put on non-accrual status; as such, the Company did no t record any interest income on non-accrual loans during the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. There were no significant commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers whose loans were on non-accrual status at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”) Loans are considered restructured in a troubled debt restructuring when the Company has granted concessions to a borrower due to the borrower’s financial condition that it otherwise would not have considered. These concessions may include modifications of the terms of the debt such as deferral of payments, extension of maturity, reduction of principal balance, reduction of the stated interest rate other than normal market rate adjustments, or a combination of these concessions. Debt may be bifurcated with separate terms for each tranche of the restructured debt. Restructuring a loan in lieu of aggressively enforcing the collection of the loan may benefit the Company by increasing the ultimate probability of collection. Restructured loans are classified as accruing or non-accruing based on management’s assessment of the collectability of the loan. Loans which are already on non-accrual status at the time of the restructuring generally remain on non-accrual status for approximately six months or longer before management considers such loans for return to accruing status. Accruing restructured loans are placed into non-accrual status if and when the borrower fails to comply with the restructured terms and management deems it unlikely that the borrower will return to a status of compliance in the near term. TDRs are individually evaluated for credit losses. There were no new TDRs during the years ended December 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021. At December 31, 2022 , four loans were TDRs with a total carrying value of $ 704,000 . There were no TDR defaults during the year ended December 31, 2022. As of December 31, 2021 , four loans were TDRs with a total carrying value of $ 758,000 . There were no TDR defaults during the year ended December 31, 2021. The allowance for credit losses includes a specific reserve for TDRs of approximately $ 60,000 and $ 85,000 as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 , there were no significant commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers whose loans were restructured. Pursuant to Section 4013 of the CARES Act, financial institutions could suspend the requirements under U.S. GAAP related to TDRs for modifications made before December 31, 2020 to loans that were current as of December 31, 2019. As a result of the enactment of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, in January 2021, the suspension of TDR accounting was extended to, and expired on January 1, 2022. The requirement that a loan be not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019 was still applicable. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its economic impact to clients, a short-term modification program that complied with the CARES Act was implemented to provide temporary payment relief to those borrowers directly impacted by COVID-19. The deferred payments along with interest accrued during the deferral period are due and payable on the maturity date. Under issued guidance, provided that these loans were current as of either year end or the date of the modification, these loans were not considered TDR loans at December 31, 2022 and will not be reported as past due during the deferral period. The Company had no loans in deferral as of December 31, 2022. Loans by Credit Quality Indicator.

These loans may contain greater than average risk. With respect to commercial mortgages and commercial loans, the Company utilizes a 10-grade internal loan rating system as an indicator of credit quality. The grades are as follows: • Loans rated 1-6 (Pass) – These loans are considered “pass” rated with low to moderate risk. • Loans rated 7 (Special Mention) – These loans have potential weaknesses warranting close attention, which, if left uncorrected, may result in deterioration of the credit at some future date. • Loans rated 8 (Substandard) – These loans have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the orderly liquidation of the debt under the original loan terms. Loss potential exists but is not identifiable in any one client. • Loans rated 9 (Doubtful) – These loans have pronounced weaknesses that make full collection highly questionable and improbable. • Loans rated 10 (Loss) – These loans are considered uncollectible and continuance as a bankable asset is not warranted. Delinquencies The past due status of a loan is determined in accordance with its contractual repayment terms. All loan types are reported past due when one scheduled payment is due and unpaid for 30 days or more. Loan delinquencies can be attributed to many factors, such as but not limited to, a continuing weakness in, or deteriorating, economic conditions in the region in which the collateral is located, the loss of a tenant or lower lease rates for commercial borrowers, or the loss of income for consumers and the resulting liquidity impacts on the borrowers.
