(6)   Marketable Securities - Restricted

 

A Margin Account was established on July 26, 2011 for which the Company needs to pledge, restrict from sale and segregate marketable securities at an approximate ratio of two to one to serve as collateral for those funds withdrawn and outstanding (see Note 21: Margin Account Loan).

 

These restricted marketable securities consist of corporate bonds with remaining maturities of greater than three months at the date of purchase, debt securities and bond funds. As of December 31, 2011, it was determined that none of the Marketable Securities had other-than-temporary impairments. At December 31, 2011, all restricted securities were classified as restricted from sale investments and $3,101,000 was measured as level 1 instruments of the fair value measurements standard (see Note 19: Fair Value).

 

Securities classified as restricted from sale consisted of:

Unrealized losses from fixed-income securities (bonds) are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates and/or a reduction in their rating of credit worthiness as deemed by independent financial rating services. Unrealized losses from domestic and international equities are due to market price movements. Management does not believe any remaining losses represent other than temporary impairment based on our evaluation of available evidence as of December 31, 2011.
