Acquisitions | Acquisitions UHP Networks Inc. On March 2, 2021, we completed our acquisition of UHP Networks Inc. ("UHP"), a leading provider of innovative and disruptive satellite ground station technology solutions, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement initially entered into in November 2019 and amended in June 2020 and on March 1, 2021, respectively. With end-markets for high-speed satellite-based networks anticipated to significantly grow, our acquisition allows us to enhance our Commercial Solutions segment's offerings with low cost time division multiple access ("TDMA") satellite modems. The acquisition has a preliminary purchase price for accounting purposes of $37,470,000. Pursuant to the stock purchase agreement, during fiscal 2021, the initial upfront payment of approximately $23,979,000 was paid mostly in shares of our common stock, with $87,000 paid in cash. In August 2021, $3,991,000 of the $4,991,000 hold back amount previously placed into escrow at closing was paid to the seller in shares of our Common Stock, as the conditions pursuant to the stock purchase agreement were met. The stock purchase agreement also provides for an earn-out payment of up to $9,000,000, also payable at our option in cash and or shares of our common stock, if specified sales milestones are reached during the eighteen-month period ending September 30, 2022. The preliminary estimated fair value of such contingent earn-out consideration at the acquisition date was $8,500,000. Of the $23,979,000 paid at closing, $4,560,000 was placed into escrow to be released ratably over three years upon settlement of potential indemnification obligations of the seller. We issued 1,026,567 shares of our common stock at closing, based on a volume weighted average stock price of approximately $28.14 per share, in satisfaction of initial payment and escrow arrangements under the terms of the stock purchase agreement. We are accounting for the acquisition under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with FASB ASC 805, "Business Combinations" ("ASC 805"). The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their preliminary fair value as of March 2, 2021 pursuant to the business combination accounting rules. Acquisition plan expenses were not included as a component of consideration transferred and were expensed in the period incurred. Our consolidated statements of operations for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2021 include a nominal amount of revenue contribution from the acquisition. Pro forma financial information is not disclosed, as the acquisition is not material. The following table summarizes the preliminary fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisition:

(1) As reported in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2021. The acquired identifiable intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis, which we believe approximates the pattern in which the assets are utilized over their estimated useful lives. The preliminary fair value of customer relationships was primarily based on the value of the discounted cash flows that the related intangible asset could be expected to generate in the future. The preliminary fair value of technology and trade name was based on the discounted capitalization of royalty expense saved because we now own the assets. The preliminary estimated fair value of contingent earn-out consideration represents the present value of the estimated amount payable, based on a probability-weighted amount of net sales, as defined, during the earn-out period, which reflects significant management estimates and assumptions using unobservable Level 3 inputs, including: (i) possible outcomes for targeted net sales during the earn-out period; (ii) timing of each possible outcome; (iii) probability of each possible outcome; and (vi) discount rate reflecting the credit risk of the Company. Among the factors contributing to the recognition of goodwill, as a component of the preliminary purchase price allocation, were synergies in products and technologies and the addition of a skilled, assembled workforce. This goodwill has been assigned to our Commercial Solutions segment based on specific identification and is generally not deductible for income tax purposes. The allocation of the preliminary purchase price shown in the above table was based upon a preliminary valuation and estimates and assumptions that are subject to change within the purchase price allocation period, generally one year from the acquisition date. The primary areas of the purchase price allocation not yet finalized include the purchase price (due to customary adjustments for potential indemnification obligations of the seller under the stock purchase agreement and contingent earn-out consideration), a final assessment of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, accrued warranty obligations, income taxes and residual goodwill. CGC Technology Limited On January 27, 2020, we completed the acquisition of CGC Technology Limited ("CGC"), a privately held company located in the United Kingdom, pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 27, 2020. CGC is a leading provider of high precision full motion fixed and mobile X/Y satellite tracking antennas, reflectors, RF feeds, radomes and other ground station equipment around the world. The acquisition had an aggregate purchase price for accounting purposes of $23,650,000, of which $12,075,000 was paid in cash and $11,575,000 was paid by the issuance of 323,504 shares of our common stock at a volume weighted average stock price of $35.78. The fair value of consideration transferred in connection with this acquisition was $23,490,000, which was net of $160,000 of cash acquired. We accounted for the acquisition of CGC under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with FASB ASC 805. The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their fair value as of January 27, 2020, pursuant to the business combination accounting rules. Acquisition plan expenses were not included as a component of consideration transferred and were expensed in the period incurred. Pro forma financial information is not disclosed, as the acquisition was not material. Acquisition Plan Expenses During fiscal 2021, 2020 and 2019, we incurred acquisition plan expenses of $100,292,000, $20,754,000 and $5,871,000, respectively. Of the amount recorded in fiscal 2021, $88,343,000 related to the previously announced litigation and merger termination with Gilat Satellite Networks, Ltd. ("Gilat"), including $70,000,000 paid in cash to Gilat. The remaining costs primarily related to the April 2021 settlement of litigation associated with the 2019 acquisition of GD NG-911 as well as our acquisition of UHP, which closed in March 2021. Additionally, we recorded $1,178,000 of incremental interest expenses in fiscal 2021 related to a now terminated financing commitment letter.
