Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
Our objective in utilizing interest rate derivatives is to add stability to our interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. We do not enter into derivatives for speculative purposes. In connection with our $200.0 million senior unsecured term loan (the “Term Loan”), which has an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.20% to 1.90% per annum, we entered into a three-year LIBOR Swap Agreement (the "Swap") allowing us to trade the variable interest rate on the Term Loan for a fixed interest rate. The Swap has a notional amount of $200.0 million of outstanding principal with an underlying LIBOR of 1.85% per annum and matures on November 1, 2020. Based on the leverage as of June 30, 2019, our spread over LIBOR was 1.20% resulting in an estimated all-in interest rate of 3.05% per annum.
Our derivative financial instrument is classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The following table presents the fair value of our derivative financial instrument:

During the next twelve months through June 30, 2020, we estimate no material changes to interest expense. This estimate may be subject to change as the underlying LIBOR changes. We determined that no adjustment was necessary for non-performance risk on our derivative obligation. As of June 30, 2019, we did not post any collateral related to this agreement.
