Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2013, The Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2013-04 ("ASU 2013-04"), “Liabilities,” which provides guidance for the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation is fixed at the reporting date, with the exception of obligations already addressed within existing US GAAP guidance. ASU 2013-04 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company will adopt this standard in the first quarter of 2014 and it does not expect the adoption to have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, "Foreign Currency Matters," which provides the standards for parent's accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment upon derecognition of certain subsidiaries or groups of assets within a foreign entity or of an investment in a foreign entity. ASU 2013-05 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company will adopt this standard in the first quarter of 2014 and it does not expect the adoption to have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
