The derivative financial instruments are comprised of interest rate swaps, which are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, each with a separate counterparty. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and currently do not have any derivatives that are not designated as hedges.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative, if any, is recognized directly in earnings.
The following table represents the effect of the derivative financial instruments on the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively (in thousands):

In 2005, we settled two US treasury rate lock agreements associated with a 10 year senior, unsecured bond offering and received approximately $3.2 million. The unamortized balance of the settled agreements as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was approximately $546,000 and $741,000, respectively. As of June 30, 2014, we expect approximately $406,000 of deferred gains on derivative instruments in accumulated other comprehensive income to be reclassified into earnings during the next twelve months.
