CASH 2018 Special Proxy Statement

Consumer loans: Crestmark’s consumer loan portfolio is primarily comprised of loans to individuals for medical services received. The majority of these loans are guaranteed by the hospital providing the service to the debtor and this guarantee serves to reduce credit risk as the guarantors agree to repurchase severely delinquent loans. Credit risk is minimized on these loans based on the guarantor’s repurchase agreement. Leases: Crestmark’s lease portfolio is primarily comprised of leases on high-tech equipment, information systems hardware, capital equipment and durable goods, and vehicles such as automobiles and tractors. Beginning in 2016, Crestmark shifted its focus to middle market companies specializing in capital equipment and durable goods. Factoring receivables: Crestmark’s factoring clients provide detailed inventory, accounts receivable, and work-in-process reports for lending arrangements. With these loans, Crestmark withholds a contingency reserve which is the difference between the fair value of the invoice amount and the amount advanced. This reserve is withheld for nonpayment of factored receivables, service fees and other adjustments.
