Derivatives are transferred between levels primarily due to changes in the source data used to construct price curves as a result of changes in market
liquidity. Transfers in and transfers out are reflected as if they had occurred at the beginning of the period. There were no transfers between levels 1 and 2
during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.
The following tables present the unobservable inputs related to Level 3 assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2014 and 2013:

The unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the electricity and natural gas commodity types consist of inputs that are less observable
due in part to lack of available broker quotes, supported by little, if any, market activity at the measurement date or are based on internally developed
models. Certain basis prices (i.e., the difference in pricing between two locations) included in the valuation of natural gas and electricity contracts were
deemed unobservable.
The inputs listed above would have a direct impact on the fair values of the above security types if they were adjusted. A significant increase (decrease)
in the basis price would result in a higher (lower) fair value for long positions, with offsetting impacts to short positions.
