This is achieved through the establishment and application of technical standards, known as Rules, for the design, construction, and operational maintenance of ships and marine related facilities. Classification is the process that certifies adherence to these Rules, comprising technical design review, construction monitoring, and ongoing survey of ships and marine related facilities over their operating life and the maintenance of the ABS Record. These activities are conducted through a network of offices in over 70 countries.	Desc

Part X, Line 2:	The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in current income tax expense. During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recognized income tax expense for interest and penalties of approximately $1,000,000 and $1,900,000, respectively. The Company is subject to income tax in many jurisdictions. The outcome of tax audits is always uncertain, the Company believes that adequate amounts of tax and interest have been provided for any adjustments that are expected to result. Futhermore, none of the audit adjustments, if assessed, are expected to be individually material to the Company's financial position, cash flows, or results of operations.
