|   | - | Market Approach (M): The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.  For example, the market approach often uses market multiples derived from a set of comparables.  Multiples might lie in ranges with a different multiple for each comparable.  The selection of where within the range each appropriate multiple falls requires the use of judgment in considering factors specific to the measurement (qualitative and quantitative). |

|   | - | Income Approach (I): The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present value amount (discounted).  The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts.  Those valuation techniques include present value techniques and the multi-period excess earnings method, which is used to measure the fair value of certain assets. |
|--------|---|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|   | - | Asset-Based Approach (A): The asset-based approach examines the value of a company’s assets net of its liabilities to derive a value for the equity holders. |
