Derivative financial instruments

The Company's derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis utilizing Level 2 inputs as determined based on review of third-party sources. The fair value of the Company's derivative assets and liabilities is determined based on the estimated consideration the Company would pay or receive to terminate these agreements on the reporting date. The derivative assets and liabilities are located in Prepaid expenses and other current assets and Accounts payable and accrued expenses, respectively, in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Non-Marketable Securities

The Company believes the carrying amounts of its non-marketable securities approximated their fair values at the dates presented above. These non-marketable securities consist of an investment in a limited partnership investment fund that invests in companies in the life science industry and are located in the United States. The investments were initially valued at purchase price and subsequently on the basis of inputs that market participants would use in pricing such investments. The portfolio of investments includes Level 1 publicly-traded equity securities and Level 3 equity securities and notes.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, other-than-temporary impairment charges of $0.5 million were recognized on the Company's non-marketable securities. There was no other-than-temporary impairment during the six months ended June 30, 2014. Net investment losses are included in Interest income and other, net in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. Depending on market conditions, the Company may incur additional charges on this investment in the future.

The following table summarizes the change in the fair value of the Company's non-marketable securities during the six months ended June 30, 2014 (in thousands).



Balance as of December 31, 2013	$	4,383
Sales	(2,162		)
Realized gain (loss)	1,240
Unrealized gain (loss)	678
Balance as of June 30, 2014	$	4,139

Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Long-term debt obligations as discussed in Note 7, "Long-Term Debt Obligations", are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are carried at amortized cost. The Company believes the fair values of the Term Loan approximates its carrying values, or amortized cost, due to the short-term nature of these obligations and the market rates of interest rates they bear. Such inputs are classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the Company’s 4.00% Notes is based on quoted market prices as of the respective balance sheet date, and therefore is classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. As of June 30, 2014, the fair value of the Company’s 4.00% Notes was approximately $180.7 million.
