Derivative financial instruments breakdown is as follows: (a) Interest rate contracts Fluctuations in market interest rates create a degree of risk by affecting the amount of the Company’s interest payments and the value of its floating-rate debt. As of December 31, 2021, most of the Company’s long-term borrowings were at variable rates. During 2012 and 2013, Tenigal entered into several forward starting interest rate swap agreements in order to fix the interest rate to be paid over an aggregate amount of $100 million, at an average rate of 1.92%. As of December 31, 2021, only $6.3 million remain outstanding. These agreements,which became effective during July 2014, will be due on July 2022 and have been accounted for as cash flow hedges. As of December 31, 2021, the after-tax cash flow hedge reserve related to these agreements amounted to $(0.04) million. Changes in fair value of derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges for each of the years presented are included below:

The gross amount of the pre-tax reserve recorded in other comprehensive income at December 31, 2021 (amounting to a loss of $0.06 million) is expected to be reclassified to the income statements in accordance to the payments of interests in connection with the borrowings hedged by these derivative contracts, during 2021 and up to the end of the life of the borrowing in 2022. 21.
