We determined that the unrealized loss on our Theravance Biopharma equity securities as of December 31, 2014 was other-than-temporary. Therefore, we recognized a loss of $3.8 million on these equity securities, which was charged to other income (expense), net on the consolidated statements of operations.
At December 31, 2014, all of the available-for-sale debt securities had contractual maturities within two years and the average duration of debt securities was approximately eight months. We do not intend to sell the investments in debt that are in an unrealized loss position, and it is unlikely that we will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity. We have determined that the gross unrealized losses on our available-for-sale debt securities at December 31, 2014 were temporary in nature. All available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses at December 31, 2014 have been in a loss position for less than twelve months.
During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, we sold marketable securities totaling $7.2 million, $22.6 million and $49.7 million, and the related realized gains and losses were not significant in any of these periods.
Fair Value Measurements
Our available-for-sale securities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and our debt is carried at the amortized cost basis. The estimated fair values were as follows:

The fair value of our marketable securities classified within Level 2 is based upon observable inputs that may include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data including market research publications.
At December 31, 2014, securities with a total fair value of $8.0 million were measured using Level 2 inputs in comparison to December 31, 2013, at which time such securities had a fair value of $8.0 million and were measured using Level 1 inputs.
The fair value of our convertible subordinated notes due 2023 and non-recourse notes due 2029 is based on actual trading prices of the instruments, if applicable, or pricing models that utilize current observable market characteristics for similar types of instruments.
