As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the fair value of MEHC's investment in BYD common stock was $488 million and $1.182 billion, respectively, which resulted in a pre-tax unrealized gain of $256 million and $950 million as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Dividends and distributions from subsidiaries - Cash dividends paid to MEHC by its subsidiaries for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 were $1.088 billion, $433 million and $495 million, respectively.
