Schedule D, Part IV, Line 2b Explanation of escrow agreementThe Credit Union maintains real estate escrow accounts used to pay members' real estate taxes and insurance.
Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 (ASC 740) footnoteThe Credit Union is exempt, by statute, from federal and state income taxes. The Credit Union does, however, pay sales tax, property tax, payroll taxes, and federal and state income tax on unrelated business activities. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and certain taxing authorities are evaluating what, if any, products and services provided by state chartered credit unions or their credit union service organizations are subject to unrelated business income tax (UBIT). There is currently very little guidance in the IRS Code on what activities should be subject to UBIT. The IRS has issued certain technical advice memorandums identifying certain activities as being subject to UBIT. As a result, at this time there is uncertainty regarding whether state chartered credit unions should pay income tax on certain types of net taxable income from activities that may be considered by taxing authorities as unrelated to the purpose for which credit unions were granted non-taxable status. The tax liability recorded by the Credit Union as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 attributed to unrelated business activities was not material. A tax position will be recognized as a benefit only if it is "more likely than not" that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized will be the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the "more likely than not" test, no tax benefit will be recorded. There is no accrual necessary at year-end 2018 and 2017. The Credit Union recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in the operations section of the consolidated statement of income. No interest or penalties were incurred during 2018 and 2017.

FORM 990, PART XI, LINE 9 OTHER CHANGES IN NET ASSETS OR FUND BALANCESDuring 2013, the Credit Union entered into purchases of securities under agreements to resell substantially identical securities. In 2014, the Credit Union held a position in securities purchased under agreements to resell through Pennant Management, Inc. (Pennant), a subsidiary of U.S. Fiduciary, in United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Rural Development Business and Industry guaranteed loans. Pennant is an SEC registered investment advisor. As of September 29, 2014, Pennant halted trading in its First Farmers Repurchase Agreement B Fund, and filed a complaint in United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division claiming that the loans Pennant allegedly acquired from First Farmers Financial, LLC (First Farmers) were fraudulent. The USDA has acknowledged granting authority to First Farmers to originate and service USDA guaranteed loans; however, the USDA has denied the validity of guarantees with respect to the loans that Pennant purchased from First Farmers. On August 31, 2016, the Credit Union filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Florida asserting the USDA's negligence caused the Credit Union harm. On September 18, 2017, the United States District Court entered a final judgement granting the USDA's motion to dismiss action. The Credit Union filed an appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit on November 15, 2017. The matter remains pending before the United States Court of Appeals. As of September 29, 2014, the Credit Union's position in the First Farmers Repurchase Agreement B Fund totaled $52,977,000. The U.S. District Court has appointed a receiver to manage and liquidate certain assets of First Farmers and other related entities and individuals in order to return funds to the investors. On April 23, 2015, the Court expanded the duties of the receiver, clarifying the distribution rights of the investors. The Court appointed receiver has taken possession of certain assets which include commercial and residential real properties, loans receivable, cash, and other personal property. Since appointment, the Court appointed receiver has liquidated (sold) certain assets, resolved related liens and received cash funds that are being held in various financial institutions for the benefit of the investors. After evaluating an inventory of the assets in the possession of the court appointed receiver, the estimated liquidation value of such assets, and unresolved liens against such assets, the Credit Union has recorded a valuation allowance at December 31, 2018 of $25,906,000 based on the Credit Union's share of the estimated value of the recovery assets as reflected in its proportional share ownership of the First Farmers Repurchase Agreement B Fund. On January 28, 2016, the USDA filed two claims against the receivership estate. The first was a contingent claim against the funds of the receivership for any liability the USDA may have to the investors related to the alleged First Farmers Financial, LLC fraud. Second is a claim for incurred and potential losses related to a USDA guarantee of a loan First Farmers Financial originated and serviced, which was not among the loans purchased by Pennant Management, Inc. On February 15, 2017, the USDA filed an amended claim withdrawing the second claim for incurred and potential losses related to the loan guarantee. The first claim, as a contingent claim, only becomes actionable if the investors and Pennant prevail and receive damages in the federal court suits. Therefore, the Credit Union has not reduced its receivable from receivership estate, net at December 31, 2018 in relation to the USDA claims. At December 31, 2018, the assets held in the receivership have been substantially converted to cash. Prior to distributing the assets of the receivership estate, the court-appointed receiver is seeking subordination from certain federal agencies including the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to subordinate any claims to the receivership estate. The receiver submitted a subordination request to the IRS on July 21, 2016. In accordance with a Department of Justice (DOJ) Directive and the Receiver's representations of the origin of any First Farmer's tax liability, it is expected the DOJ would request full subordination of any tax claim on the receivership assets. In response to the subordination request, the IRS requested that Patel and First Farmers complete tax returns for tax years 2011 to 2016. With the benefit of the returns, the IRS filed two claims in June 2018, against the receivership estate for a total of $33,990,000, of which $22,991,000 is taxes due and $10,999,000 are penalties and interest. As reported by the Receiver in December 2018 court documents the DOJ, on behalf of the IRS, informed the Receiver of their preliminary intent to subordinate all but $9,645,000 of their claims. The net claim of $9,645,000 was considered in the December 31, 2018 receivable valuation, and as such, the net receivable was reduced by the Credit Union's proportionate share of the claim in the amount of $3,046,000. There are additional levels of DOJ and IRS review required and this preliminary intent for subordination could change. As the court appointed receiver liquidates the assets under possession, and resolves certain claims, the funds are to be distributed to the investors on a pro rata basis. The timing of future distributions to the Credit Union is uncertain. In addition, other assets may become available to the court-appointed receiver as well as other priority liens may become known. The valuation allowance will be increased or decreased as new information becomes available and the available assets are liquidated.
