(2) GAAP expenses in the fourth quarter of 2020 and 2019 included certain one-off costs associated with the cost reduction program of $0.9 million and $2.0 million, respectively. For the full years 2020 and 2019, these amounts were $22.8 million and $2.0 million, respectively. The fourth quarter of 2020 also included certain loan impairments related to the cost reduction program of $0.7 million. For the full year 2020, these amounts were $10.6 million. GAAP expenses in the fourth quarter of 2020 and 2019 included certain acquisition-related compensation expenses of $1.9 million and $11.5 million, respectively. For the full years 2020 and 2019, these amounts were $3.1 million and $14.9 million, respectively.
(3) Includes non-cash GAAP charges related to the amortization of intangibles with respect to acquisitions.
(4) Includes certain rent charges incurred by the Company during the build-out phase of the Company's new UK based headquarters.
(5) Includes various other GAAP items. Pre-tax Adjusted Earnings in each presented period of 2020 and 2019 exclude the impact of the employee theft of funds, including penalties and interest, and other immaterial revisions that have been made to previously issued financial statements. Adjusted Earnings for the full year of 2019 also exclude the impact of certain GAAP charges recorded in the third quarter of 2019 as part of "Other expenses", primarily related to litigation matters such as the Company's settlement with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and the New York Attorney General's Office. Each of the above-referenced items are consistent with BGC's normal practice of excluding certain GAAP gains and charges from Adjusted Earnings that management believes do not best reflect the ordinary results of the Company, including with respect to non-recurring or unusual gains or losses, as well as resolutions of litigation.
(6) Includes non-cash gains of $0.6 million and $4.6 million, respectively, related to fair value adjustments of investments held by BGC in the fourth quarters of 2020 and 2019. For the full years 2020 and 2019, these amounts were ($0.4) million and $20.3 million, respectively.
(7) For the fourth quarters of 2020 and 2019, includes non-cash gains of $1.4 million and $1.1 million, respectively, related to BGC's investments accounted for under the equity method. For the full years 2020 and 2019, these amounts were $5.0 million and $4.1 million, respectively. The fourth quarter of 2020 also includes a net loss of $2.8 million related to an investment impairment of $1.2 million as well as various other GAAP items, while the fourth quarter of 2019 also included a net gain of $4.4 million for various other GAAP items. For the full years 2020 and 2019, these amounts were a net gain of $2.8 million and a net gain of $0.1 million, respectively. The full year 2020 also included a net loss of $3.9 million related to investment impairment.
(8) Primarily represents Cantor's pro-rata portion of net income.
(9) BGC's GAAP provision for income taxes is calculated based on an annualized methodology. The Company's GAAP provision for income taxes was $(6.7) million and $4.1 million for the fourth quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively. For the full years 2020 and 2019, these amounts were $21.3 million and $49.8 million, respectively. The Company includes additional tax-deductible items when calculating the provision for taxes with respect to Adjusted Earnings using an annualized methodology. These include tax-deductions related to equity-based compensation with respect to limited partnership unit exchange, employee loan amortization, and certain net-operating loss carryforwards. The non-GAAP provision for income taxes was adjusted ($14.1) million and ($2.8) million for the fourth quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively. For the full years 2020 and 2019, these adjustment amounts were ($17.5) million and $8.8 million, respectively. As a result, the provision for income taxes with respect to Adjusted Earnings was $7.4 million and $6.9 million for the fourth quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively. For the full years 2020 and 2019, these amounts were $38.8 million and $41.0 million, respectively. The calculation of taxes for Adjusted Earnings excluded the effect of the 2017 U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
