Deferred taxes are recognized at currently enacted tax rates for temporary differences between the financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. At December 31, 2012, the Company had $2 million of U.S. capital loss carryfowards that will expire in 2013 and $.8 million of foreign net operating loss carryfowards that will expire between the years 2013 and 2017. The Company assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to utilize the existing deferred tax assets. Based on this evaluation, the Company has established a valuation allowance of $2.3 million at December 31, 2012 in order to measure only the portion of the deferred tax asset that is more likely than not will be realized. Therefore, the Company recorded an allowance of $2 million against the U.S. capital loss carryfoward and $.3 million against the foreign net operating loss carryforwards. The net decrease of $.8 million in the valuation allowance from the prior year is primarily due to usage of foreign net operating loss carryfowards. The Company has not established a deferred tax liability associated with approximately $117 million of its undistributed foreign earnings at December 31, 2012 as these earnings are considered to be permanently reinvested. These earnings would be taxable upon the sale or liquidation of these foreign subsidiaries, or upon the remittance of dividends. While the measurement of the unrecognized U.S. income taxes with respect to these earnings is not practicable, foreign tax credits would be available to offset some or all of any portion of such earnings that would be remitted as dividends. Income taxes paid net of refunds were approximately $16 million in 2012, $14 million in 2011, and $8.4 million in 2010. The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. and various states and foreign jurisdictions. As of December 31, 2012, with few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, local or foreign examinations by tax authorities for years before 2006. The following is a tabular reconciliation of the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits for the period ended December 31:
|  | 2012 |  |  | 2011 |  |  | 2010 |
Balance at January 1 |  | $ | 1,015 |  |  | $ | 1,062 |  |  | $ | 1,304 |
Additions for tax positions of current year |  |  | 0 |  |  |  | 0 |  |  |  | 53 |
Additions for tax positions of prior years |  |  | 511 |  |  |  | 0 |  |  |  | 62 |
Reductions for tax positions of prior years |  |  | 0 |  |  |  | (32 | ) |  |  | (281 | )
Expiration of statutes of limitations |  |  | (165 | ) |  |  | (15 | ) |  |  | (76 | )
Balance at December 31 |  | $ | 1,361 |  |  | $ | 1,015 |  |  | $ | 1,062 |
Accrued interest and penalties are not included in the above unrecognized tax balances. The Company records accrued interest as well as penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as part of the provision for income taxes. The Company recognized less than $.1 million, $.1 million and $.1 million in interest, net of the amount lapsed through expiring statutes during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The Company had approximately $.6 million, $.5 million and $.4 million for the payment of interest accrued at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The Company had approximately $.3 million accrued for the payment of penalties at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010. If recognized, approximately $.7 million, $.5 million, and $.4 million of unrecognized tax benefits would affect the tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 respectively. The Company may decrease its unrecognized tax benefits by approximately $.2 million within the next twelve months due to the expiration of statutes of limitations.
