FAIR VALUE MEASURES
Certain assets and liabilities are reported at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, under a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1
–     observable inputs such as quoted prices in active liquid markets;
Level 2
–     inputs, other than the quoted market prices in active markets, which are observable, either directly or indirectly; or observable market prices in markets with insufficient volume and/or infrequent transactions; and
Level 3
–     unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data available, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2012 are as follows (in thousands):

Level 1 instrument valuations are obtained from real-time quotes for transactions in active exchange markets involving identical assets. Level 2 instrument valuations are obtained from inputs, other than quoted market prices in active markets, that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace and quoted prices in markets with limited volume or infrequent transactions.
There were no material assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at December 31, 2012 or 2011.
