Busey may be required to provide additional collateral based on fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying securities. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase were as follows:

Revolving Line of Credit
On May 28, 2021, Busey entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, pursuant to which Busey has access to a $40.0 million revolving line of credit bearing an interest rate of 1.80% plus the one-month forward-looking term rate based on SOFR. After executing subsequent amendments, the current termination date for the revolving line of credit is April 30, 2026. As of September 30, 2025, there was no balance outstanding on the revolving line of credit. The revolving line of credit incurs an insignificant non-usage fee based on any undrawn amounts.
Short-term Borrowings

Federal funds purchased are short-term borrowings that generally mature between one day and 90 days. During the second quarter of 2025, Busey purchased federal funds to test operational availability to access funds if needed.

Subordinated Notes
On June 1, 2020, Busey issued $125.0 million of fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes scheduled to mature on June 1, 2030. The subordinated notes, which qualified as Tier 2 capital for regulatory purposes, bore interest at an annual rate of 5.25% for the first five years after issuance. Thereafter, the notes were to bear interest at a floating rate equal to a three-month benchmark rate plus a spread of 5.11%, as calculated on each applicable determination date. The subordinated notes, which were unsecured obligations of the Company, had an optional redemption, in whole or in part, on any interest payment date on or after June 1, 2025. On June 1, 2025, Busey redeemed the entire $125.0 million outstanding principal amount of the subordinated notes.
On June 2, 2022, Busey issued $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.000% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes maturing June 15, 2032, which qualify as Tier 2 capital for regulatory purposes. The price to the public for the subordinated notes was 100% of the principal amount of the subordinated notes. Interest on the subordinated notes accrues at a rate equal to (1) 5.000% per annum from the original issue date to, but excluding, June 15, 2027, payable semiannually in arrears, and (2) a floating rate per annum equal to a benchmark rate, which is the Three-Month Term SOFR (as defined in the subordinated notes), plus a spread of 252 bps from and including June 15, 2027, payable quarterly in arrears. The subordinated notes have an optional redemption, in whole or in part, on any interest payment date on or after June 15, 2027.
Associated with the M&M acquisition completed on April 1, 2024 (see “Note 2. Mergers and Acquisitions”), Busey acquired a $4.0 million 5.25% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated note maturing December 4, 2030, which qualified as Tier 2 capital for regulatory purposes. Interest on the subordinated note accrues at a rate equal to (1) 5.25% per annum from the original issue date to December 4, 2025, and (2) a floating rate per annum equal to a benchmark rate, which is the Three-Month Term SOFR (as defined in the subordinated notes), plus a spread of 497 bps from December 4, 2025. At September 30, 2025, there was an immaterial amount of fair value discount outstanding, to be accreted through the earliest optional redemption date. The subordinated note has an optional redemption, in whole or in part, on or after December 4, 2025. Subsequent to quarter end, on October 24, 2025, Busey issued a conditional notice of full redemption of this subordinated note. The redemption of the subordinated note is subject to and conditioned upon regulatory approval from the Federal Reserve. Assuming the requisite approvals are obtained, the subordinated note will be redeemed on its optional redemption date of December 4, 2025.
