     Gross unrealized losses totaled $108,441 as of March 31, 2012, and were attributable to three corporate bonds and one municipal bond out of a portfolio of 51 bonds. The gross unrealized losses were due to market-price decreases and rating downgrades after the bonds were purchased. All of the bonds we held that were rated by Moody's or Standard and Poor's had investment-grade credit ratings. For each bond with an unrealized loss, we expect to recover the entire cost basis of each security based on our consideration of factors including their credit ratings, the underlying ratings of insured bonds, and historical default rates for securities of comparable credit rating. Because we expect to recover the entire cost basis of the securities, and because we do not intend to sell the securities and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell the securities before recovery of the cost basis, which may be maturity, we did not consider any of our marketable securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2012.
