Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that
controls may become inadequate or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may
deteriorate.
We assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31,
2013. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of
the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (1992). Based on our
assessment, we determined that, as of December 31, 2013, the Company’s internal control over financial
reporting was effective based on those criteria.
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013 has been audited
by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, who also audited the
Company’s consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as stated in their
report which appears on page 134.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter
ended December 31, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
