BANK DEBT
 
During the third quarter of 2010, we agreed to terms of certain credit facilities with TD Bank, N.A. aggregating up to approximately $2,100,000, which are secured by substantially all of our assets. These credit facilities are comprised of a $1,000,000 ten-year mortgage loan, a $600,000 fifty-four month note and a $500,000 line of credit, which is renewable annually. Proceeds from the $1,000,000 mortgage were received during the third quarter of 2010. Based on a 15-year amortization schedule, a balloon principal payment of $451,885 will be due in the third quarter of 2020. We hedged our interest rate exposure on this mortgage loan with an interest rate swap agreement that effectively converted a floating interest rate based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) of 3.41% as of March 31, 2014 to the fixed rate of 6.04%. All derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at their fair value. The agreement has been determined to be highly effective in hedging the variability of the identified cash flows and has been designated as a cash flow hedge of the variability in the hedged interest payments. Changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap agreement are recorded in other comprehensive (loss) income, net of taxes. The original notional amount of the interest rate swap agreement of $1,000,000 amortizes in accordance with the amortization of the mortgage loan. The notional amount of the interest rate swap was $838,399 as of March 31, 2014. Payments required by the interest rate swap totaled $5,566 and $5,781 during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. As the result of our decision to hedge this interest rate risk, we recorded other comprehensive (loss) income, net of taxes, in the amount of ($1,408) and $5,810 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which reflects the change in fair value of the interest rate swap asset (liability), net of taxes. The fair value of the interest rate swap has been determined using observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. Accordingly, the interest rate swap is classified as level 2 within the fair value hierarchy provided in Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. Proceeds from the $600,000 note were received during the first quarter of 2011. Interest on the note is variable at the higher rate per annum of 4.25% or the LIBOR plus 3.25%. The $500,000 line of credit is available as needed and has been extended through May 31, 2015 and is renewable annually thereafter. The line of credit was unused as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Interest on any borrowings against the line of credit would be variable at the higher rate per annum of 4.25% or the LIBOR plus 3.50%. These credit facilities are subject to certain financial covenants. During the third quarter of 2013, the covenant requiring us to maintain at least $1,000,000 in otherwise unrestricted cash was removed. We are in compliance with all applicable covenants as of March 31, 2014. Principal payments due under debt outstanding as of March 31, 2014 are reflected in the following table by the period that payments are due:
