DEBT AND OTHER OBLIGATIONS DEBT AND OTHER OBLIGATIONS
Under a revolving line of credit arrangement (the “Credit Facility”), the Company has the ability to borrow on an unsecured basis up to an aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion. The Company has the right in certain circumstances to request that the commitment under the Credit Facility be increased up to a maximum principal amount of $1.5 billion. Balances outstanding under the Credit Facility accrue interest at a rate equal to, at the option of the Borrowers, (i) LIBOR plus a spread based on the ratings of PLC’s Senior Debt, or (ii) the sum of (A) a rate equal to the highest of (x) the Administrative Agent’s Prime rate, (y) 0.50% above the Funds Rate, or (z) the one-month LIBOR plus 1.00% and (B) a spread based on the ratings of PLC’s Senior Debt. The Credit Facility also provided for a facility fee at a rate that varies with the ratings of PLC’s Senior Debt and that is calculated on the aggregate amount of commitments under the Credit Facility, whether used or unused. The annual facility fee rate is 0.125% of the aggregate principal amount. The Credit Facility provides that PLC is liable for the full amount of any obligations for borrowings or letters of credit, including those of the Company, under the Credit Facility. The maturity date of the Credit Facility is May 3, 2023. The Company is not aware of any non-compliance with the financial debt covenants of the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2020. PLC had a $280.0 million outstanding balance as of June 30, 2020. PLC did not have an outstanding balance as of December 31, 2019.

Secured Financing Transactions
Repurchase Program Borrowings
While the Company anticipates that the cash flows of its operating subsidiaries will be sufficient to meet its investment commitments and operating cash needs in a normal credit market environment, the Company recognizes that investment commitments scheduled to be funded may, from time to time, exceed the funds then available. Therefore, the Company has established repurchase agreement programs for certain of its insurance subsidiaries to provide liquidity when needed. The Company expects that the rate received on its investments will equal or exceed its borrowing rate. Under this program, the Company may, from time to time, sell an investment security at a specific price and agree to repurchase that security at another specified price at a later date. These borrowings are typically for a term less than 90 days. The market value of securities to be repurchased is monitored and collateral levels are adjusted where appropriate to protect the counterparty against credit exposure. Cash received is invested in fixed maturity securities, and the agreements provide for net settlement in the event of default or on termination of the agreements. As of June 30, 2020, the fair value of securities pledged under the repurchase program was $103.2 million, and the repurchase obligation of $100.0 million was included in the Company’s consolidated condensed balance sheets (at an average borrowing rate of 12 basis points). During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the maximum balance outstanding at any one point in time related to these programs was $440.0 million. The average daily balance was $84.0 million (at an average borrowing rate of 74 basis points) during the six months ended June 30, 2020. As of December 31, 2019, the fair value of securities pledged under the repurchase program was $282.2 million, and the repurchase obligation of $270.0 million was included in the Company’s consolidated condensed balance sheets (at an average borrowing rate of 163 basis points). During 2019, the maximum balance outstanding at any one point in time related to these programs was $900.0 million. The average daily balance was $212.2 million (at an average borrowing rate of 214 basis points) during the year ended December 31, 2019.
Securities Lending
The Company participates in securities lending, primarily as an investment yield enhancement, whereby securities that are held as investments are loaned out to third parties for short periods of time. The Company requires collateral at least equal to 102% of the fair value of the loaned securities to be separately maintained. The loaned securities’ fair value is monitored on a daily basis and collateral is adjusted accordingly. The Company maintains ownership of the securities at all times and is entitled to receive from the borrower any payments for interest received on such securities during the loan term. Securities lending transactions are accounted for as secured borrowings. As of June 30, 2020, securities with a fair value of $99.6 million were loaned under this program. As collateral for the loaned securities, the Company receives cash which is primarily reinvested in short-term repurchase agreements, which are also collateralized by U.S. Government or U.S. Government Agency securities, and government money market funds. These investments are recorded in short-term investments with a corresponding liability recorded in secured financing liabilities to account for its obligation to return the collateral. As of June 30, 2020, the fair value of the collateral related to this program was $102.5 million and the Company has an obligation to return $102.5 million of collateral to the securities borrowers.

The following table provides the fair value of collateral pledged for repurchase agreements, grouped by asset class as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:
