Refer to the Company’s Form
10
-K for the year ended
March 31, 2018
for a detailed explanation of existing debts. For the quarter ended
September 30, 2018,
the Company entered the following debt obligations:
 
On
September 
14,
2018,
Contrail and its wholly-owned subsidiary Contrail Aviation Leasing, LLC (“CAL”) entered into a new Loan Agreement with Old National Bank (“ONB”). The Loan Agreement provides for a borrowing by Contrail and CAL of
$18,000,000
with a maturity date of
September 
14,
2021.
The borrowing under the Loan Agreement bears interest at a variable rate equal to the
1
-month LIBOR plus
375
basis points. Contrail and CAL used proceeds of the new loan in connection with the purchase by CAL of
two
aircraft, each an Airbus
A319
-
100.
 
The Company assumes various financial obligations and commitments in the normal course of its operations and financing activities. Financial obligations are considered to represent known future cash payments that the Company is required to make under existing contractual arrangements such as debt and lease agreements.
 
As part of the Company’s interest rate risk management strategy, the Company uses derivative instruments to minimize significant unanticipated earnings fluctuations that
may
arise from rising variable interest rate costs associated with existing borrowings (Air T Term Note A and Term Note D). To meet these objectives, the Company entered into interest rate swaps in the notional amounts consistent with the outstanding debt to provide a fixed rate of
4.56%
and
5.09%,
respectively, on Term Notes A and D. The swaps mature in
January 2028.  
  
As of
August 1, 2018,
these swap contracts have been designated as cash flow hedging instruments and qualified as effective hedges in accordance with ASC
815
-
30.
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of these instruments is recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and is reclassified into the condensed consolidated statement of income (loss) as interest expense in the same period in which the underlying hedge transaction affects earnings. As of
September 30, 2018 
and
March 31, 2018,
the fair value of the interest-rate swap contracts was an asset of
$116,295
and a liability of
$66,706,
respectively, which is included within other non-current assets and liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the
six
-months ended
September 30, 2018,
the Company recorded a gain of approximately
$145,000
in the condensed consolidated statement of income (loss) due to the changes in the fair value of the instruments prior to the designation and qualification of these instruments as effective hedges. After the interest rate swaps were deemed effective hedges, the Company recorded approximately
$29,000,
net of tax, in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income for changes in the fair value of the instruments.
