Amortization expense related to intangible assets for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $160 million and $126 million, respectively.

We completed our annual impairment testing of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles as of March 31, 2013 and determined that there was no impairment as of that date. No matters have arisen subsequent to that date which have resulted in a change to this assessment.
