Income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 include a $1.9 million benefit from the net reversal of reserves for uncertain tax positions. Income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2014 include the impact of a $2.9 million benefit arising from state tax law changes.

Income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 include the impact of a charge of $5.2 million resulting from the settlement of the 2010 IRS audit and a $6.0 million charge resulting from the adjustment of deferred tax balances, partially offset by a $4.4 million benefit from the net reversal of reserves for uncertain tax positions.

As of June 30, 2014, there were no uncertain tax positions for which the statutes of limitations are expected to expire during the next twelve months and which would affect our effective tax rate.
