All of the $2 million in unrealized losses at December 31, 2013, arose within the last 12 months and are related to the Company’s investment in one security.  The market value of the available-for-sale equity security that has been in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months is $5 million.  The Company evaluated the near-term prospects of the issuer in relation to the severity and duration of the impairment.  Based on that evaluation and the Company’s ability and intent to hold this investment for a reasonable period of time sufficient for a forecasted recovery of fair value, the Company does not consider this investment to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2013.

For information on other-than-temporary impairment charges, see Note 19.
