At December 31, 2011 and 2010, there are no investments in marketable securities that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for twelve months or longer. Substantially all of the Company's marketable debt securities are rated investment grade. The gross unrealized losses on the marketable debt securities relate to changes in interest rates. Because the Company does not intend to sell any marketable debt securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell any marketable debt securities before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider any of its marketable debt securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2011. The following table presents the proceeds from maturities and sales of available-for-sale marketable securities and the related gross realized gains and losses:
|  | December 31, |
--- | --- | --- | ---
|  | 2011 |  | 2010 |  | 2009 |
|  | (In thousands) |
Proceeds from maturities and sales of available-for-sale marketable securities |  | $ | 600,149 |  | $ | 768,650 |  | $ | 293,629 |
Gross realized gains |  |  | 2,482 |  |  | 4,802 |  |  | 42,372 |
Gross realized losses |  |  | (41 | ) |  | (19 | ) |  | (12,414 | )
Gross realized gains and losses from the maturities and sales of available-for-sale marketable securities are included in "Other income (expense), net" in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. Unrealized gains, net of tax, reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income into other income (expense), net related to the maturities and sales of available-for-sale securities for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 were $2.8 million, $3.2 million and $0.7 million, respectively. Investment in ARO As part of the consideration for the sale of HSE to ARO on June 19, 2007, IAC received approximately 5.5 million shares of ARO stock plus additional consideration in the form of a contingent value right ("CVR") (See Note 9 for additional information on the CVR). During 2009, the Company sold its 5.5 million shares of ARO stock, resulting in a pre-tax loss of $12.3 million, which is included in the gross realized losses for the year ended December 31, 2009 disclosed above. Prior to the sale of its last 1.1 million shares of ARO stock, the Company concluded that the decline in the stock price of these remaining shares was other-than-temporary, due in part, to ARO's insolvency filing on June 9, 2009, and recorded impairment charges totaling $4.6 million.

- Definition Tabular disclosure of investments in certain debt and equity securities (and certain other trading assets) which include all debt and equity securities (other than those equity securities accounted for under the equity or cost methods of accounting) with readily determinable fair values. Other trading assets include assets that are carried on the balance sheet at fair value and held for trading purposes. A debt security represents a creditor relationship with an enterprise that is in the form of a security. Debt securities include, among other items, US Treasury securities, US government securities, municipal securities, corporate bonds, convertible debt, commercial paper, and all securitized debt instruments. An equity security represents an ownership interest in an enterprise or the right to acquire or dispose of an ownership interest in an enterprise at fixed or determinable prices. Equity securities include, among other things, common stock, certain preferred stock, warrant rights, call options, and put options, but do not include convertible debt. An entity may opt to provide the reader with additional narrative text to better understand the nature of investments in debt and equity securities (and other trading assets). + References Reference 1: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 320 -SubTopic 10 -Section 50 -Paragraph 10 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6872113&loc=d3e27405-111563 Reference 2: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 310 -SubTopic 30 -Section 50 -Paragraph 2 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6379141&loc=d3e15032-111544 Reference 3: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Glossary Equity Security -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6511694 -Topic 320 Reference 4: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 320 -SubTopic 10 -Section 50 -Paragraph 2 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6872113&loc=d3e27161-111563 Reference 5: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Glossary Debt Security -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6509901 -Topic 320 Reference 6: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (FAS) -Number 115 -Paragraph 3, 19, 20, 21, 22, 137 -LegacyDoc This reference is SUPERSEDED by the Accounting Standards Codification effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.
