During the first nine months of 2014, we received equipment that was prepaid in 2010 and 2011. Upon receipt of the equipment, we transferred $135 million from other long-term assets to property, plant and equipment. We recognized the prepayments within operating activities in the consolidated condensed statement of cash flows when we paid for the equipment in 2010 and 2011, and the receipt of the equipment is reflected as a non-cash transaction in the current period.
