| As of December 31, |
| 2016 |  |  | 2015 |
Surplus note | $ | 14,338 |  |  | $ | 15,809 |
Term loan |  | — |  |  |  | 6,851 |

Surplus Note On November 9, 2006, UPCIC entered into a $25.0 million surplus note with the State Board of Administration of Florida (the “SBA”) under Florida’s Insurance Capital Build-Up Incentive Program (the “ICBUI”). The surplus note has a twenty-year term and accrues interest, adjusted quarterly based on the 10-year Constant Maturity Treasury Index. The carrying amount of the surplus note is included in the statutory capital and surplus of UPCIC of approximately $14.3 million as of December 31, 2016. The effective interest rate paid on the surplus note was 1.88%, 2.21% and 2.73% for years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Any payment of principal or interest by UPCIC on the surplus note must be approved by the Commissioner of the OIR. Quarterly principal payments of $368 thousand are due through 2026. Aggregate principal payments of $1.5 million were made during each of the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014. UPCIC is in compliance with each of the loan’s covenants as implemented by rules promulgated by the SBA. An event of default will occur under the surplus note, as amended, if UPCIC: (i) defaults in the payment of the surplus note; (ii) fails to submit quarterly filings to the FLOIR; (iii) fails to maintain at least $50 million of surplus during the term of the surplus note, except for certain situations; (iv) misuses proceeds of the surplus note; (v) makes any misrepresentations in the application for the program; (vi) pays any dividend when principal or interest payments are past due under the surplus note; or (vii) fails to maintain a level of surplus and reinsurance sufficient to cover in excess of UPCIC’s 1-in-100 year probable maximum loss as determined by a hurricane loss model accepted by the Florida Commission on Hurricane Loss Projection Methodology as certified by the FLOIR annually. To avoid a penalty rate, UPCIC must maintain either a ratio of net written premium to surplus of 2:1 or a ratio of gross written premiums to surplus of 6:1 according to a calculation method set forth in the surplus note. As of December 31, 2016, UPCIC’s net written premium to surplus ratio and gross written premium to surplus ratio were in excess of the required minimums and, therefore, UPCIC is not subject to increases in interest rates. Term Loan On May 23, 2013, UVE entered into a $20 million unsecured term loan agreement and related term note (the “Term Loan”) with RenaissanceRe Ventures Ltd. (“RenRe Ventures”). The Term Loan provided an interest at the rate of 0.50% per annum and matured on the earlier of May 23, 2016 or the date that all principal under the Term Loan was pre-paid or deemed paid in full. The Term Loan was amortized over the three-year term and UVE could elect whether to prepay the loan without penalty. Principal was paid annually on the anniversary of the closing date in three annual installments and interest was payable in arrears on the same dates as the principal payments. The Term Loan contained financial covenants. The stated interest rate of the Term Loan of 0.50% was below the Company’s borrowing rate resulting in imputed interest and an original issue discount computed by calculating the present value of the future principal and interest payments which utilized the Company’s borrowing rate. Concurrent with the establishment of the original issue discount, the Company recorded a deferred credit, a component of other liabilities and accrued expenses, for an equal amount against premium payments the Company made in connection with a catastrophe risk-linked transaction contract entered into with RenRe on the same date and with the same maturity date as the Term Loan. The original issue discount was amortized to interest expense over the life of the Term Loan and the deferred credit was amortized as a reduction in insurance expense, a component of general and administrative expenses, over the life of a covered loss index swap with RenRe. On April 28, 2016, the Company entered into a Purchase and Exchange Agreement with RenRe, pursuant to which the Company sold 583,771 shares of UVE common stock in a private placement to RenRe Ventures at a price of $17.13 per share for total consideration of $10.0 million, which was comprised of $2.965 million in cash and $7.035 million in cancellation of outstanding indebtedness, including accrued interest. See “—Note 8 (Stockholders’ Equity)” for details of the cancellation of the Term Loan. The following table provides the principal amount and unamortized original issue discount of the Term Loan as of the dates presented (in thousands):
|  | As of December 31, |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |
Principal amount |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 7,000 |
Less: Unamortized discount |  |  | — |  |  |  | (149 | )
Term Loan, net of unamortized discount |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 6,851 |
Through the interest rate payment of 0.50% per annum and the amortization of the discount, the effective interest rate on the Term Loan was 5.99%. Amortization of the original issue discount is included in interest expense, a component of general and administrative expenses, in the Consolidated Statements of Income and was $149 thousand $521 thousand and $840 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Unsecured Line of Credit On March 29, 2013, UVE entered into a revolving loan agreement and related revolving note (the “DB Loan”) with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (“Deutsche Bank”), which was amended in July 2015. The DB Loan makes available to UVE an unsecured line of credit in an aggregate amount not to exceed $15.0 million. Draws under the DB Loan have a maturity date of July 31, 2017 and carry an interest rate of LIBOR plus a margin of 5.50% or Deutsche Bank’s prime rate plus a margin of 3.50%, at the election of UVE. The DB Loan contains certain covenants and restrictions applicable while amounts are outstanding thereunder, including limitations with respect to our indebtedness, liens, distributions, mergers or dispositions of assets, organizational structure, transactions with affiliates and business activities. As of December 31, 2016, UVE was in compliance with all such covenants. UVE had not drawn any amounts under the unsecured line of credit as of December 31, 2016. Should UVE default on the DB Loan, it will be prohibited from paying dividends to its shareholders. Maturities The following table provides an estimate of principal payments to be made for the amounts due on the surplus note and the Term Loan as of December 31, 2016 (in thousands):
