Transactions with the Exchange and EFL and concentrations of credit risk – Financial instruments could potentially expose Indemnity to concentrations of credit risk, including unsecured receivables from the Exchange. A majority of Indemnity’s revenue and receivables are from the Exchange and affiliates. See also Note 4, “Variable Interest Entity.”

Management fees and expense allocation amounts payable from the Exchange to Indemnity were $365 million and $331 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The payable from EFL to Indemnity for expense allocations and interest on the surplus note totaled $4 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Note receivable from EFL – Indemnity is due $25 million from EFL in the form of a surplus note that was issued in 2003. The note may be repaid only out of unassigned surplus of EFL. Both principal and interest payments are subject to prior approval by the Pennsylvania Insurance Commissioner. The note bears an annual interest rate of 6.7% and will be payable on demand on or after December 31, 2018, with interest scheduled to be paid semi-annually, subject to prior approval by the Pennsylvania Insurance Commissioner. For each of the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, Indemnity recognized interest income on the note of $0.8 million.
