Marketable Securities

We measure the fair value of our marketable securities using a market approach where identical or comparable prices are available and an income approach in other cases. We obtain the majority of the prices used in this valuation from a pricing service. Our pricing service utilizes industry-standard pricing models that consider various inputs, including benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads and benchmark securities as well as other relevant economic measures. We conduct an annual review of valuations provided by our pricing service, which includes discussion and analysis of the inputs used by the pricing service to provide prices for the types of securities we hold. These inputs include prices for comparable securities, bid/ask quotes, interest rate yields and prepayment spreads. Based on our review we believe the prices received from our pricing service are a reliable representation of exit prices.

At June 30, 2012 the carrying amount of our investment in Peugeot S.A. (PSA) exceeded its fair value. The share prices for comparable European automotive companies are currently experiencing significant volatility stemming, in part, from the eurozone debt crisis and its effect on automotive sales within the eurozone, as well as the uncertainty around future sales. We assessed whether the decline in value represented an other-than-temporary impairment and concluded that the impairment is temporary. We believe that the recent economic uncertainty is weighing heavily on the valuation of PSA. Should market conditions not recover in the near-term, we may conclude the impairment is other-than-temporary, resulting in an impairment charge. We currently have the ability and intent to hold the investment until its fair value recovers.

We maintained securities of $84 million as compensating balances to support letters of credit of $70 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. We have access to these securities in the normal course of business; however, the letters of credit may be withdrawn if the minimum collateral balance is not maintained.
