• Used the Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) methodology. • Quantitative modeling relied on the baseline national unemployment rate forecast from Moody’s publication of 3/27/20, which showed unemployment peaking at just under 9%. • Qualitative factors were adjusted to address the unprecedented nature of this economic change and the uncertainty regarding its resolution. Especially in such circumstances, reliance on quantitative modeling has to be tempered with management judgment. • Provision forecasting was based on a scenario of losses peaking later in 2020 and into the first half of 2021. 17
