On July 29, 2016, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Northern Homelands Company, the holding company of Maxum Specialty Insurance Group headquartered in Alpharetta, Georgia in a cash transaction for approximately $169, subject to post closing adjustments. The acquisition adds excess and surplus lines capability to the Company's Small Commercial line of business. Maxum will maintain its brand and limited wholesale distribution model.

Comprised of an indefinite lived intangible asset of $10 related to customer relationships and $1 of other intangibles, which are amortizable over 5 to 8 years.

Deductible for federal income tax purposes.
Lattice's revenues and earnings since the acquisition date are included in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the Mutual Funds reporting segment and are not material to the Company's consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016.
In addition to the initial cash consideration, the Company is required to make future payments to the former owners of Lattice of up to $60 based upon growth in ETF AUM over a four-year period beginning on the date of acquisition. The contingent consideration was measured at fair value at the acquisition date by projecting future ETF AUM and discounting expected payments back to the valuation date. The projected ETF AUM and risk-adjusted discount rate are significant unobservable inputs to fair value.
The goodwill recognized is attributable to the fact that the acquisition of Lattice enables the Company to offer ETFs which are expected to be a significant source of future revenue and earnings growth. Goodwill will be allocated to the Mutual Funds reporting segment.
The Company recognized $1 of acquisition related costs in the three months ended September 30, 2016. These costs are included in insurance operating costs and other expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Sale of U.K. businesses
On July 26, 2016, the Company announced it had entered into an agreement to sell its U.K. property and casualty run-off subsidiaries, Hartford Financial Products International Limited and Downlands Liability Management Limited, in a cash transaction to Catalina Holdings UK Limited ("buyer"), for approximately $268, net of transaction costs. The Company's U.K. property and casualty run-off subsidiaries are included in the P&C Other Operations reporting segment. Revenues and earnings are not material to the Company's consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.
The Company recognized an estimated capital loss of $59, before tax, and related income tax benefit of $65, for an estimated after-tax net gain of $6 on the sale for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. The accrual for the estimated before tax loss is included as a reduction of the carrying value of assets held for sale in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2016. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2016, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.
