Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and when events or circumstances change to suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. For purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to reporting units, which are either at the operating segment level or one reporting level below the operating segment. Goodwill is recorded in the financial statements at cost less accumulated impairment losses.  In the second quarter of 2012, UPG performed the annual impairment tests and determined that goodwill was not impaired.</font></div>
