A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, either (i) management believes that it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due (both principal and interest) according to the original contractual terms of the loan agreement, or (ii) it has been classified as a TDR. The following two tables present our recorded investment in impaired loans outstanding by product segment, including our recorded investment in impaired loans, which represents the principal amount outstanding, net of unearned income, deferred loan fees and costs, and any direct principal charge-offs.

Credit Quality Indicators We attempt to mitigate risk through loan structure, collateral, monitoring, and other credit risk management controls. We have adopted an internal risk rating policy in which each loan is rated for credit quality with a numerical rating of 1 through 8 . Loans rated 5 and better ( 1 - 5 ratings, inclusive) are considered "pass" rated credits and we believe exhibit acceptable financial performance, cash flow, and leverage. Credits rated 6 are performing in accordance with contractual terms but are considered "special mention" as these credits demonstrate potential weakness that, if left unresolved, may result in deterioration in our credit position and/or the repayment prospects for the credit. Borrowers rated special mention may exhibit adverse operating trends, high leverage, tight liquidity or other credit concerns. Loans rated 7 may be classified as either accruing ("potential problem") or nonaccrual ("nonperforming"). Potential problem loans, like special mention, are loans that are performing in accordance with contractual terms, but for which management has some level of concern (greater than that of special mention loans) about the ability of the borrowers to meet existing repayment terms in future periods. Potential problem loans continue to accrue interest but the ultimate collection of these loans in full is a risk due to the same conditions that characterize a 6 -rated credit. These credits may also have somewhat increased risk profiles as a result of the current net worth and/or paying capacity of the obligor or guarantors or a declining value of the collateral pledged. These loans generally have a well-defined weakness that may jeopardize collection of the debt and are characterized by the distinct possibility that we may sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not resolved. Although these loans are generally identified as potential problem loans and require additional attention by management, they may never become nonperforming. Nonperforming loans include nonaccrual loans risk rated 7 or 8 and have all the weaknesses inherent in a 7 -rated potential problem loan with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently-existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Special mention, potential problem and nonperforming loans are reviewed at a minimum on a quarterly basis, while all other rated credits over a certain dollar threshold, depending on loan type, are reviewed annually or more frequently as the circumstances warrant.

(3) Other concessions primarily include interest rate reductions, loan increases or deferrals of principal. At the time an accruing loan becomes modified and meets the definition of a TDR, it is considered impaired and no longer included as part of the general loan loss reserve population. However, our general loan loss reserve methodology does consider the amount and product type of the TDRs removed as a proxy for potentially heightened risk in the general portfolio when establishing final reserve requirements. As impaired loans, TDRs (both accruing and nonaccruing) are evaluated for impairment at the end of each quarter with a specific valuation reserve created, or adjusted (either individually or as part of a pool), if necessary, as a component of the allowance for loan losses. Refer to the "Impaired Loan" and "Allowance for Loan Loss" sections of Note 1 , "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K regarding our policy for assessing potential impairment on such loans. Our allowance for loan losses included $3.8 million and $10.6 million in specific reserves for nonaccrual TDRs at June 30, 2015 , and December 31, 2014 , respectively. For accruing TDRs, there were no specific reserves at June 30, 2015 , and December 31, 2014 , respectively, as the present value of cash flows for the restructured loan were greater than the recorded investment in the loan. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 , a single commercial real estate loan totaling $699,000 became nonperforming within 12 months of being modified as an accruing TDR. There were no such transactions for the six months ended June 30, 2015 . A loan typically becomes nonperforming and placed on nonaccrual status when the principal or interest payments are 90 days past due based on contractual terms or when an individual analysis of a borrower’s creditworthiness indicates a loan should be placed on nonaccrual status earlier than the 90-day past due date. Other Real Estate Owned The following table presents the composition of property acquired as a result of borrower defaults on loans secured by real property.

Covered Assets Covered assets represent acquired residential mortgage loans and foreclosed real estate covered under a loss sharing agreement with the FDIC and include an indemnification receivable representing the present value of the expected reimbursement from the FDIC related to expected losses on the acquired loans and foreclosed real estate under such agreement. The loss share agreement will expire on September 30, 2019. The carrying amount of covered assets is presented in the following table.
