ASU 2013-11 amends Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Income Taxes</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, to provide guidance and reduce diversity in practice on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. Effective January 1, 2014, the Company adopted ASU 2013-11. Except for the new disclosure requirements, the adoption of the standard did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:12px;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">(b)    Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted:</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Revenue from Contracts with Customers</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> ("ASU 2014-09"), which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is not permitted. Insurance contracts are not within the scope of ASU 2014-09, therefore this standard would not apply to the Company's Insurance Underwriting segment. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.</font></div></div>
