In connection with our annual indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment tests performed during the fourth quarter of 2012, we did not record an impairment loss to indefinite-lived intangible assets as the estimated fair value for each of our indefinite-lived intangible assets exceeded the carrying value of the underlying asset.

 

The market value of our investment in public REITs are accounted for as available for sale securities and are carried at fair value on an ongoing basis. See Note 9 for the related fair value disclosures, Note 12 for the net unrealized gains and Note 17 for the net realized gains on our REITs.
