As of June 30, 2013, the Company’s financial assets valued at fair value consisted of assets valued using i) unadjusted quoted prices in active markets (level 1). Level 1 instrument valuations are obtained from observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets in active markets. Level 2 instruments are obtained from readily-available pricing sources for comparable instruments (level 2). As of June 30, 2013, the Company did not have any assets without other observable inputs (level 2) or without market values that would require a high level of judgment to determine fair value (level 3).

The unrealized net gains on short term and long term investments are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. The Company does not anticipate any significant realized losses associated with those investments in excess of the Company’s historical cost.

In addition, as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had $61,725,464 and $87,379,121 of short-term investments, which consisted of time deposits. Those investments are accounted for at amortized cost which, as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, approximates their fair values.

Unrealized losses from securities are primarily attributable to market price movements. Management does not believe any remaining unrealized losses represent other-than-temporary impairments based on our evaluation of available evidence including the credit rating of the investments, as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

(2)	Asset backed securities have investment grade credit ratings.

Most of the Sovereign Debt Securities are U.S. Treasury Notes, with no significant risk associated.
