Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

In connection with the Term Loan, we entered into a Swap (See Note 8 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this Form 10-K for information about the Term Loan related to the Swap) that fixes the underlying LIBOR rate on the Term Loan at 1.11% per annum for the first three years and matures on July 1, 2014. Based on actual leverage as of December 31, 2013, our spread over LIBOR was 1.95% resulting in an actual all-in interest rate of 3.06% per annum. We have designated the Swap as a cash flow hedge. No gain or loss was recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income related to hedge ineffectiveness or to amounts excluded from effectiveness testing on our cash flow hedge during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Consolidated Balance Sheet related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on our variable-rate debt. Through the remaining term of the swap, July 1, 2014, we estimate that an additional $1.1 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.
