_______________ 

(a)
Our current derivative liabilities, long-term derivative assets and long-term derivative liabilities are included in other current and accrued liabilities, other assets, net, and other long-term liabilities, respectively, in our consolidated balance sheets.

(b)
We consider credit risk in our fair value assessments. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, (i) the fair values of our cross-currency and interest rate derivative contracts that represented assets have been reduced by credit risk valuation adjustments aggregating $93.1 million and $64.0 million, respectively, and (ii) the fair values of our cross-currency and interest rate derivative contracts that represented liabilities have been reduced by credit risk valuation adjustments aggregating $71.5 million and $86.5 million, respectively. The adjustments to our derivative assets relate to the credit risk associated with counterparty nonperformance, and the adjustments to our derivative liabilities relate to credit risk associated with our own nonperformance. In all cases, the adjustments take into account offsetting liability or asset positions within a given contract. Our determination of credit risk valuation adjustments generally is based on our and our counterparties’ credit risks, as observed in the credit default swap market and market quotations for certain of our subsidiaries’ debt instruments, as applicable. The changes in the credit risk valuation adjustments associated with our cross-currency and interest rate derivative contracts resulted in net losses of $16.4 million, $9.3 million and $120.9 million during 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. These amounts are included in realized and unrealized gains on derivative instruments, net, in our consolidated statements of operations. For further information regarding our fair value measurements, see note 8.

(c)
Our equity-related derivative instruments primarily include the fair value of (i) the ITV Collar (ii) the share collar with respect to the shares of Sumitomo held by our company (the Sumitomo Collar), (iii) the Lionsgate Forward and (iv) at December 31, 2015, Virgin Media’s conversion hedges with respect to Virgin Media’s 6.50% convertible senior notes (the Virgin Media Capped Calls). The fair values of the ITV Collar, the Sumitomo Collar and the Lionsgate Forward do not include credit risk valuation adjustments as we assume that any losses incurred by our company in the event of nonperformance by the respective counterparty would be, subject to relevant insolvency laws, fully offset against amounts we owe to such counterparty pursuant to the related secured borrowing arrangements.

Schedule of Realized and Unrealized Losses on Derivative Instruments The details of our realized and unrealized gains on derivative instruments, net, are as follows:
