 a $182.8 million core deposit intangible asset and a $6.1 million trade name intangible asset. A core deposit intangible asset represents the value of relationships with deposit customers. The fair value of the core deposit intangible asset was estimated using a net cost savings method, a form of discounted cash flow methodology, which gave appropriate consideration to expected client attrition rates and other applicable adjustments to the projected deposit balance, the interest cost and net maintenance cost associated with the client deposit base, an alternative cost of funds, and a discount rate that was used to discount the future economic benefits of the core deposit intangible asset to present value. The core deposit intangible asset is being amortized on an accelerated basis over an estimated useful life of 25 years, which is the period over which the estimated economic benefits are estimated to be received. The fair value of the trade name intangible asset for the Ametros brand was estimated using a relief-from-royalty methodology, which models the cost savings from owning the brand rather than licensing it from a third party. The trade name intangible asset is being amortized on a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of 5 years.Funds held in escrow and Members’ funds.

Members’ funds is the corresponding liability to the Funds held in escrow. Given that these amounts can be withdrawn and/or directed for use on demand, as long as in accordance with the terms of the settlement agreement, their carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.Sale of Mortgage Servicing Rights On February 12, 2024, the Company sold the majority of its mortgage servicing portfolio, which comprised 9,184 individual residential mortgage loans with an aggregate UPB of $1.4 billion.
