(1) Guaranteed by ING Group.

As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

Unsecured senior debt, which consists of senior fixed rate notes and guarantees of fixed rate notes, ranks highest in priority, followed by subordinated debt, which consists of junior subordinated debt securities.

Aetna Notes

ING Group guarantees various debentures of Lion Holdings that were assumed by Lion Holdings in connection with the Company's acquisition of Aetna's life insurance and related businesses in 2000 (the "Aetna Notes"). Concurrent with the completion of the Company's IPO, the Company entered into a shareholder agreement with ING Group that governs certain aspects of the Company's continuing relationship. The Company agreed in the shareholder agreement to reduce the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Aetna Notes to:

no more than $400.0 as of December 31, 2015;
no more than $300.0 as of December 31, 2016;
no more than $200.0 as of December 31, 2017;
no more than $100.0 as of December 31, 2018;
and zero as of December 31, 2019.

The reduction in principal amount of Aetna Notes can be accomplished, at the Company’s option, through redemptions, repurchases or other means, but will also be deemed to have been reduced to the extent the Company posts collateral with a third-party collateral agent, for the benefit of ING Group, which may consist of cash collateral; certain investment-grade debt instruments; a letter of credit ("LOC") meeting certain requirements; or senior debt obligations of ING Group or a wholly owned subsidiary of ING Group (other than the Company or its subsidiaries).

If the Company fails to reduce the outstanding principal amount of the Aetna Notes, the Company agreed to pay a quarterly fee (ranging from 0.5% per quarter for 2016 to 1.25% per quarter for 2019) to ING Group based on the outstanding principal amount of Aetna Notes which exceed the limits set forth above.

As of March 31, 2014, the outstanding principal amount of the Aetna Notes guaranteed by ING Group was $506.1.

Effective January 1, 2014, the reinsurance agreements with Whisperingwind III, LLC ("Whisperingwind III") were novated to Roaring River IV, LLC ("Roaring River IV"), a wholly owned reinsurance subsidiary of the Company, which completed a transaction with a third-party bank to provide up to $565.0 of statutory reserve financing through a trust note which matures December 31, 2028.

Senior Unsecured Credit Facility

On February 14, 2014, the Company revised the terms of its Revolving Credit Agreement ("Revolving Credit Agreement") by entering into the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement ("Amended and Restated Credit Agreement") with a syndicate of banks. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement modifies the original agreement by: 1) extending the term of the agreement to February 14, 2018; 2) reducing the total amount of LOCs that may be issued from $3.5 billion to $3.0 billion and 3) reducing the current cost of LOC issuance fees from 200 bps to 175 bps. The revolving credit sublimit of $750.0 present in the original agreement remains unchanged. ING Bank, N.V. ("ING Bank"), an affiliate, acted as Joint Lead Arranger, Joint Book Manager and Documentation Agent and received $0.7 for its services and participation in the syndicate.

As of March 31, 2014, there were no amounts outstanding as revolving credit borrowings and $829.9 in letters of credit outstanding.
