Note 7. | Credit Arrangements
As expected, discontinuation of London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) occurred on June 30, 2023 (“LIBOR Cessation Date”) and affected the rates used in the Company’s credit arrangements after that date. On March 15, 2022, the U.S. Congress enacted the Adjustable Interest Rate LIBOR Act (the “LIBOR Act”) to address LIBOR’s cessation and to establish a clear and uniform process for replacing the overnight and one-, three-, six- and 12-month tenors of USD LIBOR in existing contracts that do not provide for the use of a clearly defined or practicable replacement benchmark rate (“tough legacy contracts”). Further, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Board”) has issued regulations, 12 C.F.R. Part 253, “Regulations Implementing the Adjustable Interest Rate LIBOR Act (Regulation ZZ)” together with the LIBOR Act, constitute the “Federal LIBOR Legislation,” which relates to the LIBOR transition. Bank Debt On May 12, 2021, the Company entered into a Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Truist Bank as the lender (the “Lender”). The Credit Agreement provides for an unsecured $10,000 revolving credit facility that matures on April 12, 2024. Prior to July 1, 2023, the Company paid interest on the unpaid principal balance of outstanding revolving loans at the 1-month LIBOR Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 2.00%, subject to a LIBOR floor rate of 1.00%. Effective July 1, 2023, the interest rate on the unpaid principal balance of outstanding revolving loans is determined based on a reference rate of the 1-month Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) published by Chicago Mercantile Exchange Group Benchmark Administration Limited (“CME”) (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus a spread adjustment of 0.11448% plus 2.00%, subject to a SOFR floor rate of 1.00%. The Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with certain covenants, including a debt to capital ratio that restricts the Company from incurring consolidated indebtedness that exceeds 35% of the Company’s consolidated capitalization at any time. The Credit Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties and events of default. Events of default include, among others, (a) the failure by the Company to pay any amounts owed under the Credit Agreement when due, (b) the failure to perform and not timely remedy certain covenants, (c) a change in control of the Company and (d) the occurrence of bankruptcy or insolvency events. Upon an event of default, the Lender may, among other things, declare all obligations under the Credit Agreement immediately due and payable and terminate the revolving commitments. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had outstanding borrowings including accrued interest of $3,019 under the Credit Agreement. Junior Subordinated Debentures The Company has two unconsolidated Connecticut statutory business trusts, which exist for the exclusive purposes of: (i) issuing trust preferred securities (“Trust Preferred Securities”) representing undivided beneficial interests in the assets of the trusts; (ii) investing the gross proceeds of the Trust Preferred Securities in junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures (“Junior Subordinated Debentures”) of the Company; and (iii) engaging in those activities necessary or incidental thereto. The outstanding $18.0 million and $15.7 million of Junior Subordinated Debentures mature on December 4, 2032 and May 15, 2033, respectively, are callable quarterly, in whole or in part, only at the option of the Company. Prior to July 1, 2023, the interest rate was based on 3-month LIBOR plus an applicable margin. The margin ranges from 4.00% to 4.10%. Effective July 1, 2023, the interest rate is determined based on a reference rate of the 3-month SOFR plus applicable tenor spread of 0.26161 percent plus an applicable margin, ranging from 4.00% to 4.10%. The financial structure of each of Atlantic American Statutory Trust I and II as of September 30, 2023 was as follows:

(1) | For each of the respective debentures, the Company has the right at any time, and from time to time, to defer payments of interest on the Junior Subordinated Debentures for a period not exceeding 20 consecutive quarters up to the debentures’ respective maturity dates. During any such period, interest will continue to accrue and the Company may not declare or pay any cash dividends or distributions on, or purchase, the Company’s common stock nor make any principal, interest or premium payments on or repurchase any debt securities that rank equally with or junior to the Junior Subordinated Debentures. The Company has the right at any time to dissolve each of the trusts and cause the Junior Subordinated Debentures to be distributed to the holders of the Trust Preferred Securities.
(2) | The Junior Subordinated Debentures are unsecured and rank junior and subordinate in right of payment to all senior debt of the Parent and are effectively subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of its subsidiaries.
(3) | On August 4, 2014, the Company acquired $7,500 of the Junior Subordinated Debentures.
(4) | The Parent has guaranteed, on a subordinated basis, all of the obligations under the Trust Preferred Securities, including payment of the redemption price and any accumulated and unpaid distributions to the extent of available funds and upon dissolution, winding up or liquidation.
