Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Derivative Financial Instruments Derivative Financial Instruments:
Derivative financial instruments are used within our overall risk management program to manage certain interest rate and foreign currency risks. By utilizing a derivative instrument to hedge exposure to LIBOR rate changes, we are exposed to counterparty credit risk, in particular the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. To mitigate this risk, hedging instruments are placed with a counterparty that we believe poses minimal credit risk. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

We have four interest rate swap agreements with a notional value of $500 million that convert one-month variable rate LIBOR to a fixed rate of 2.88% through December 31, 2023. This results in a 4.63% fixed interest rate for borrowings under our senior secured term loan facility after the impact of interest rate swap agreements. As of September 27, 2020, we had four additional interest rate swap agreements that matured on December 31, 2020 and converted the same notional amount of one-month variable rate LIBOR to a fixed rate of 2.64%. None of the interest rate swap agreements are designated as hedging instruments. The fair market value of our swap portfolio, including the location within the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, for the periods presented were as follows:
