During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company recognized $68.8 million and $78.3 million, respectively, of previously unrecognized tax benefits, substantially all of which is due to the expiration of U.S. federal statutes of limitations for certain years. As of September 30, 2011, it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will decrease within twelve months by as much as $26.7 million due to the resolution of audits or expirations of statutes of limitations related to U.S. federal, state and international tax positions.
