Console error is:

Building the VirtualBox Guest Additions kernel modules
The headers for the current running kernel were not found. If the following
module compilation fails then this could be the reason.
 
Building the main Guest Additions module ...fail!

See a similar older report at https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=53708

Note that:

sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r)'
sudo apt-get install dkms

had been run on this system.

The kernel version which the Guest Additions are compiled against is 3.13.0-30 and this kernel was released much later than VBox 4.1.12. I also think that you mix something. Ubuntu 14.04 certainly does not ship VBox 4.1.12 Additions, I would assume that 14.04 ships either 4.3.10 or 4.3.12.
