Interest Rate Contracts

As of December 31, 2015, the Company had two interest rate caps and five interest rate swaps in order to hedge interest rate risk with notional amounts of $92.0 million and $714.5 million, respectively. We designated each of these interest rate contracts as effective cash flow hedges for accounting purposes.

5-Year Term Loan due April 2020 and 7-year Term Loan due April 2022

On April 1, 2015, the Company entered into an interest rate contract with respect to $300.0 million of the $550.0 million 5-Year Term Loan due April 2020 which, effective as of May 1, 2015, swapped one-month LIBOR to a fixed rate of 1.36% through the loan’s maturity. The remaining $250.0 million bears interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.30% to 2.20% depending on the Company’s leverage ratio.

On April 1, 2015, the Company also entered into an interest rate contract with respect to the $350.0 million 7-year Term Loan due April 2022, which, effective as of May 1, 2015, swapped one-month LIBOR to a fixed rate of 1.61% through the loan’s maturity.

The interest rate contracts described above were not changed in connection with this loan amendment.
