Note 13: Related Party Transactions

At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Bank had loans outstanding to executive officers, directors, and their affiliates (related parties). In management’s opinion, such loans and other extensions of credit and deposits were made in the ordinary course of business and were made on substantially the same terms (including interest rates and collateral) as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons. Further, in management’s opinion, these loans did not involve more than normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. Such loans are summarized below.

	2016			2015
	(In thousands)
Aggregate balance – Beginning of period	$	319		$	400
New loans		—			9
Repayments and reclassifications		(206	)		(90	)
Aggregate balance – End of period	$	113		$	319

The loan reclassification during 2016 includes a loan from a former employee. The loan continues to be outstanding and performing.

Deposits from related parties held by the Bank at December 31, 2016, and 2015, totaled $449,000 and $386,000, respectively.

The Bank paid legal fees to a law firm of which a director of the Company is a member. The amounts paid totaled approximately $14,000 and $8,000 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

The Bank leases an in-store retail branch from a corporation in which a director of the Company holds an interest. The current five year lease provides for renewal options through April 30, 2021.
