Note Payable Note Payable
We have one line of credit through multiple commercial banks that was due to expire May 13, 2019. Effective February 4, 2019, we extended our unsecured revolving credit facility for five years, amending the expiration to February 4, 2024, with the option of two one-year extensions. The borrowing capacity was increased to $300 million from $225 million with an additional $300 million accordion feature. Terms and conditions are similar to the former agreement except the net worth covenant has been eliminated and the debt-to-total capital maximum shall not exceed 35%. On December 6, 2019, we exercised our option to extend the term of the line of credit one year to February 4, 2025. We had no compensating balance requirements on short-term debt for either 2019 or 2018. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, $39 million and $32 million was drawn on the line of credit, respectively. The interest rate charged on our borrowings on this credit agreement ranged from 2.59% to 3.41% during 2019 and ranged from 2.45% to 4.75% during 2018. In addition, we have letters of credit related to our Cincinnati Re and Cincinnati Global operations with no amounts drawn at December 31, 2019 and 2018.
