The credit agreement provides for fixed and floating rate advances for periods up to six months at various interest rates. The credit agreement contains various financial covenants, including limits on total debt to total capitalization, consolidated net worth and minimum risk-based capital ratios for Kemper’s largest insurance subsidiaries, United Insurance and Trinity. Proceeds from advances under the credit agreement may be used for general corporate purposes, including repayment of existing indebtedness. There were no outstanding borrowings under the credit agreement at either December 31, 2014 or December 31, 2013. United Insurance and Trinity are members of the FHLB of Chicago and Dallas, respectively. The FHLB memberships provide United Insurance and Trinity with access to additional sources of liquidity.

DEBT (Continued) On February 27, 2014, Kemper issued $150.0 million of its 7.375% subordinated debentures due February 27, 2054 . The net proceeds of the issuance were $144.0 million, net of discount and transaction costs, for an effective yield of 7.69%. The subordinated debentures are unsecured and are subordinated and junior to the senior indebtedness of Kemper. Interest on the subordinated debentures is payable quarterly. As long as no event of default has occurred, Kemper may defer interest payments on the subordinated debentures for up to five consecutive years without giving rise to an event of default. During a deferral period, interest will continue to accrue at the stated interest rate compounded quarterly. Kemper is permitted to redeem some or all of the subordinated debentures on or after February 27, 2019, at a redemption price that is equal to their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. Kemper is permitted to redeem the subordinated debentures in whole, but not in part, at any time prior to February 27, 2019, within 90 days of the occurrence of certain tax events or rating agency events, at specified redemption prices. In 2010, Kemper issued $250 million of its 6.00% senior notes due November 30, 2015. The notes are unsecured and may be redeemed in whole at any time or in part from time to time at Kemper’s option at specified redemption prices. Kemper issued the notes for proceeds of $247.8 million, net of transaction costs, for an effective yield of 6.21%. In 2007, Kemper issued $360 million of its 6.00% senior notes due May 15, 2017.
