16. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There has been no change in our significant accounting policies from those contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, except as discussed below.

We adopted an Accounting Standard Update (ASU) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) for clarifying disclosures of offsetting assets and liabilities. This clarifies the scope and treatment of derivatives that are offset or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangements. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.

We adopted an ASU for reporting amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income. This update requires entities to disclose the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.

We adopted an ASU for reporting cumulative translation adjustment upon derecognition of foreign subsidiaries, assets or investments. This update requires the release of related cumulative translation adjustment when the parent ceases to have a controlling financial interest. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.
