7. | Derivative Instruments
The Company is exposed to certain market risks relating to its ongoing business operations. From time to time, the Company enters into derivative instrument arrangements to manage various risks including interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk and commodity price risk. Interest Rate Swap Agreements During 2016 and 2017, we entered into five interest rate swap contracts. Collectively, these derivative contracts are intended to fix the future interest payments associated with $1.3 billion of our variable rate borrowings at between 0.896% and 2.212%. At September 30, 2018, we had variable-rate borrowings of $1.7 billion under our 2016 Credit Agreement. The notional amounts, fixed and variable interest rates and maturities of the interest rate swap agreements are as follows:
| Tranche A |  | Tranche B |  | Tranche C |  | Tranche D |  | Tranche E
Notional amount at inception (in thousands) | $300,000 |  | $200,000 |  | $400,000 |  | $150,000 |  | $250,000
