Margin Borrowing Facility

The Company has available a margin borrowing facility but did not have any amounts outstanding on the margin borrowing facility as of December 31, 2022 or 2021. The borrowing rate for this facility is tied to the Fed Funds Effective rate and was approximately 5.1% and 0.8% at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This facility is due on demand. The borrowings are subject to maintenance margin, which is a minimum account balance that must be maintained. A decline in market conditions could require an additional deposit of collateral. The Company did not have any securities that were deposited as collateral at December 31, 2022 or 2021. The amount borrowed against the margin account may fluctuate as routine investment transactions, such as dividends received, investment income received, maturities and pay-downs, impact cash balances. The margin facility contains customary events of default, including, without limitation, insolvency, failure to make required payments, failure to comply with any representations or warranties, failure to adequately assure future performance, and failure of a guarantor to perform under its guarantee.

The Company recorded interest expense related to the Margin Borrowing Facility of approximately $0.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The Company did not incur any interest expense related to the Margin Borrowing Facility for the years ended December 31, 2022 or 2021.
