Derivative Financial Instruments
 
The Company may enter into interest rate derivative contracts to manage exposure to interest rate risks. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Derivative financial instruments are recognized at fair value and presented within other assets and liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair value of derivatives that are neither designated nor qualify as hedging instruments are recognized within the change in fair value of interest rate derivatives in the condensed consolidated statements of income. For derivatives that qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss is reported as a component of other comprehensive loss and reclassified into earnings in the periods during which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.

On February 1, 2017, the North Point Center Note 5 was paid in full, which terminated the interest rate swap agreement associated with the note. The loss on the interest rate swap agreement was not significant.

$50.0 million at a strike rate of 1.50% for a premium of less than $0.2 million. The interest rate cap agreement expires on March 1, 2019.
