Interest Rate Swaps
We previously maintained interest rate swap agreements that matured in March 2021 and effectively converted borrowings under our senior credit facilities to a fixed rate of 2.535%, plus the applicable margin.

In February 2020, and as a result of a December 2019 amendment that extended the maturity date of our senior credit facilities to December 17, 2024, we entered into additional interest swap agreements (“Swaps”). The Swaps have a notional amount of $248.4, cover the period from March 2021 to November 2024, and effectively convert borrowings under our senior credit facilities to a fixed rate of 1.061%, plus the applicable margin.

We have designated and are accounting for our interest rate swap agreements as cash flow hedges. As of April 3, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the unrealized loss, net of tax, recorded in AOCI was $2.5 and $5.9, respectively. In addition, as of April 3, 2021, the fair value of our interest rate swap agreements totaled $3.4, with $2.2 recorded as a current liability and the remainder in long-term liabilities, and $7.8 at December 31, 2020 (with $1.4 recorded as a current liability and the remainder in long-term liabilities). Changes in fair value of our interest rate swap agreements are reclassified into earnings as a component of interest expense, when the forecasted transaction impacts earnings.

Currency Forward Contracts
We manufacture and sell our products in a number of countries and, as a result, are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our objective is to preserve the economic value of non-functional currency-denominated cash flows and to minimize the impact of changes as a result of currency fluctuations. Our principal currency exposures relate to the South African Rand, British Pound Sterling, and Euro.
From time to time, we enter into forward contracts to manage the exposure on contracts with forecasted transactions denominated in non-functional currencies and to manage the risk of transaction gains and losses associated with assets/liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of certain subsidiaries (“FX forward contracts”). None of our FX forward contracts are designated as cash flow hedges.
We had FX forward contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $12.4 and $6.3 outstanding as of April 3, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, with all of the $12.4 scheduled to mature within one year.
Commodity Contracts
From time to time, we enter into commodity contracts to manage the exposure on forecasted purchases of commodity raw materials. At April 3, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the outstanding notional amount of commodity contracts were 3.1 and 3.2 pounds of copper, respectively. We designate and account for these contracts as cash flow hedges and, to the extent the commodity contracts are effective in offsetting the variability of the forecasted purchases, the change in fair value is included in AOCI. We reclassify AOCI associated with our commodity contracts to cost of products sold when the forecasted transaction impacts earnings. As of April 3, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the fair value of these contracts were current assets of $1.5 and $2.4, respectively. The unrealized gains, net of taxes, recorded in AOCI were $1.1 and $1.5 as of April 3, 2021 and
December 31, 2020, respectively. We anticipate reclassifying the unrealized gains as of April 3, 2021 to earnings over the next 12 months.
