The cost basis of intangible assets includes a foreign currency translation loss of $1.2 million and a foreign currency translation gain of $0.5 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was $4.9 million, $3.9 million and $3.9 million, respectively. Estimated annual amortization expense for the next five years is as follows: 2015 - $3.6 million, 2016 - $3.0 million, 2017 - $2.8 million, 2018 - $2.6 million and 2019 - $2.5 million. Trademarks with a carrying amount of $10.0 million were determined to have indefinite lives and therefore do not require amortization.
