Items Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

For a description of the Company’s methodology on determining fair value, refer to Note 11 of the Company’s Financial Statements filed on its Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2012.

The table also indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques used by the Company to determine such fair value (in millions):
