        <ExplanationTxt>EFFECTIVE FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009, CTIA IS SUBJECT TO THE FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING RULES FOR ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES. THIS PRONOUNCEMENT PRESCRIBES A RECOGNITION THRESHOLD AND MEASUREMENT ATTRIBUTABLE FOR THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF TAX POSITIONS TAKEN ON CTIA'S TAX RETURN. THE EVALUATION OF A TAX POSITION IS A TWO-STEP PROCESS. THE FIRST STEP IS RECOGNITION. CTIA DETERMINES WHETHER IT IS MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THAT A TAX POSITION WILL BE SUSTAINED UPON EXAMINATION, INCLUDING RESOLUTION OF ANY RELATED APPEALS OR LITIGATION PROCESSES, BASED ON THE TECHNICAL MERITS OF THE POSITION. IN EVALUATING WHETHER A TAX POSITION HAS MET THE MORE-LIKELY-THAN-NOT RECOGNITION THRESHOLD, CTIA WILL PRESUME THAT THE POSITION WILL BE EXAMINED BY THE APPROPRIATE TAXING AUTHORITY THAT HAS FULL KNOWLEDGE OF ALL RELEVANT INFORMATION. THE SECOND STEP IN THE EVALUATION PROCESS IS MEASUREMENT. A TAX POSITION THAT MEETS THE MORE-LIKELY-THAN-NOT RECOGNITION THRESHOLD IS MEASURED TO DETERMINE THE AMOUNT OF BENEFIT TO RECOGNIZE IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. CTIA HAS REVIEWED ALL OF ITS TAX POSITIONS TAKEN ON TAX RETURNS AND HAS CONCLUDED THAT NONE OF THE TAX POSITIONS FALL ABOVE THE MORE-LIKELY-THAN-NOT RECOGNITION THRESHOLD. AS A RESULT, NO TAX LIABILITIES ARE RECORDED FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2013 OR DECEMBER 31, 2012 RELATED TO THIS MATTER.</ExplanationTxt>
