Derivative Instruments And Hedging Activities

NOTE 6. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

The Company is exposed to global market risks, including risks from changes in FX rates and changes in interest rates. Accordingly, the Company uses derivatives in certain instances to manage the aforementioned financial exposures that occur in the normal course of business. The Company does not hold or issue derivatives for speculative purposes.

Interest Rate Swaps

In the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company entered into interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of $300 million to convert the fixed interest rate on the Series 2005-1 Notes to a floating interest rate based on the 3-month LIBOR. The purpose of this hedge was to mitigate the risk associated with changes in the fair value of the Series 2005-1 Notes, thus the Company has designated these swaps as fair value hedges. The fair value of the swaps is reported in other assets at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 in the Company's consolidated balance sheets with a corresponding adjustment to the carrying value of the Series 2005-1 Notes. The changes in the fair value of the hedges and the underlying hedged item generally offset and the net cash settlements on the swaps are recorded each period within interest expense, net in the Company's consolidated statement of operations. The net interest income recognized in interest expense, net within the Company's consolidated statements of operations on these swaps was $0.8 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

In May 2008, the Company entered into interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of $150 million to protect against fluctuations in the LIBOR-based variable interest rate on the 2008 Term Loan, further described in Note 12. These interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of these swaps are recorded to other comprehensive income or loss, to the extent that the hedge is effective, and such amounts are reclassified to earnings in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects income. The fair value of the swaps is reported in other liabilities in the Company's consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Foreign Exchange Forwards and Options

The Company engaged in hedging activities to protect against FX risks from forecasted billings and related revenue denominated in the euro and the GBP. FX options and forward exchange contracts were utilized to hedge exposures related to changes in FX rates. As of December 31, 2011, these FX options and forward exchange contracts have matured and all realized gains and losses have been reclassified from AOCI into earnings. These FX options and forward exchange contracts were designated as cash flow hedges.

The Company also enters into foreign exchange forwards to mitigate the change in fair value on certain assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the entity's functional currency. These forward contracts are not designated as hedging instruments under the applicable sections of Topic 815 of the ASC. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of these contracts are recognized immediately in other non-operating (expense) income, net in the Company's consolidated statements of operations along with the FX gain or loss recognized on the assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than the entity's functional currency. These contracts have expiration dates at various times through June 2012.

The following table summarizes the notional amounts of the Company's outstanding foreign exchange forwards:

	March 31, 2012		December 31, 2011
Notional amount of Currency Pair:
Contracts to purchase USD with euros	$	34.6	$	27.5
Contracts to sell USD for euros	$	59.1	$	47.7
Contracts to purchase USD with GBP	$	8.1	$	2.4
Contracts to sell USD for GBP	$	1.9	$	17.6
Contracts to purchase USD with other foreign currencies	$	5.2	$	3.2
Contracts to sell USD for other foreign currencies	$	5.9	$	7.6
Contracts to purchase euros with other foreign currencies	€	12.3	€	13.6
Contracts to purchase euros with GBP	€	1.1	€	1.6
Contracts to sell euros for GBP	€	13.2	€	7.2

The net gains on these instruments recognized in other non-operating (expense) income, net in the Company's consolidated statements of operations were $1.0 million and $3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The tables below show the classification between assets and liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets for the fair value of derivative instruments:

	Fair Value of Derivative Instruments
	Asset				Liability
	March 31, 2012		December 31, 2011		March 31, 2012		December 31, 2011
Derivatives designated as accounting hedges:
Interest rate swaps	$	8.2	$	11.5	$	3.6	$	4.5
Total derivatives designated as accounting hedges		8.2		11.5		3.6		4.5
Derivatives not designated as accounting hedges:
FX forwards on certain assets and liabilities		0.2		1.1		1.0		2.3
Total	$	8.4	$	12.6	$	4.6	$	6.8

The fair value for the interest rate swaps is included in other assets and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The fair value of the FX forwards is included in other current assets and account payable and accrued liabilities as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

The following table provides information on gains/(losses) on the Company's cash flow hedges:

All gains and losses on derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are initially recognized through AOCI. Realized gains and losses reported in AOCI are reclassified into earnings (into revenue for FX options and into interest expense, net for the interest rate swaps) as the underlying transaction is recognized.

The cumulative amount of unrecognized hedge losses recorded in AOCI is as follows:

	Unrecognized Losses, net of tax
	March 31, 2012			December 31, 2011
