[1] | The short-term portion is included in "Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other." The long-term portion is included in "Other liabilities."
[2] | During the year ended December 31, 2012, we fixed an acquisition-related contingent consideration liability in the amount of $2.5 million. The non-contingent consideration liability is no longer required to be remeasured to fair value and, accordingly, is not classified as a Level 3 measurement.
[3] | Adjustments to fair value related to accretion expense and remeasurement of contingent consideration are recorded in "Acquisition-related contingent consideration" on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).
