The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes under ASC topic 740-10-25,  ("ASC 740-10-25"). ASC
740-10-25 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or
expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740-10-25 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim
periods, disclosure, and transition.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. As of December 31, 2013 and
2012, the Company had $16,000 and $9,000 accrued for interest and penalties, respectively, in "Other Long Term Liabilities". During the year ended
December 31, 2013, the Company accrued $7,000 of interest expense. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company accrued $42,000 of interest
expense and paid $57,000 as settlement of its Japan audit.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, is as follows (in thousands):

During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company did not recognize additional unrecognized tax benefits. During the year ended December 31,
2012, the Company recognized $239,000 for unrecognized tax benefits and paid $261,000 as settlement of its Japan audit for the tax years 2008, 2009, and
2010. These liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits are included in "Other Long Term Liabilities." As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had
$143,000 of unrecognized tax benefits, respectively, which if recognized, would affect income tax expense. The Company does not expect that the amounts of
unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly within the next twelve months.
The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. and various states and foreign jurisdictions. The Company's tax years 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 are
subject to examination by the tax authorities. As of December 31, 2013, the Company has a federal tax examination ongoing for income tax years 2009, 2010
and 2011.
