The Notes were issued in a single series, with a maturity date of May 31, 2039, and bearing interest at an annual rate of 9%. Costs incurred in the issuance of debt of $3,050 are capitalized and amortized over the life of the non-cancellable period of the debt. The capitalization of such debt issuance costs are included as an offset to the "Long Term Debt" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and the related amortization is included in "Interest expense" in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The interest on the Notes will be payable quarterly in arrears beginning on August 31, 2024. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, interest expense totaled $540. Credit Facilities In December 2023, UF&C became a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines ("FHLB Des Moines"). As part of the FHLB Des Moines application process and in connection with its membership in FHLB Des Moines, UF&C entered into FHLB Des Moines' standard Advances, Pledge and Security Agreement (the "Advances Agreement"). The Advances Agreement governs the terms and conditions under which UF&C may borrow and FHLB Des Moines may make loans or advances from time to time. The Advances Agreement requires UF&C to pledge certain collateral, including the capital stock in FHLB Des Moines owned by UF&C and such other assets (including mortgage-related securities, loans, and stock in the Company) as agreed by UF&C and FHLB Des Moines in connection with any such loans or advances. Membership in FHLB Des Moines provides the Company with access to FHLB Des Moines' product line of financial services, including funding agreements, general asset/liability management, and collateralized advances that can be used for liquidity management. As a member, the Company has an aggregate borrowing capacity of up to 20.0 percent of total assets of UF&C. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has FHLB Des Moines borrowing capacity up to $452.7 million if an immediate liquidity need would arise. The Company had no outstanding balance as of June 30, 2024 and 2023 related to these lines of credit.
