4. Subsidiaries and Joint Ventures with Noncontrolling Owners’ Interests

The amended agreements, as described in Note

4

of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the

2016

Form

10

-K, resulted in an obligation to purchase Mr. Buenting’s and Mr. Myers’

50%

members’ interest that the Company is certain to incur, either because of Mr. Buenting’s or Mr. Myers’ death; therefore, the Company has classified the noncontrolling interest as mandatorily redeemable and has recorded a liability in “Members’ interest subject to mandatory redemption and undistributed earnings” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. In the event of either Mr. Buenting’s or Mr. Myers’ death, the Company has purchased death and permanent disability insurance of

$40.0

million to mitigate the Company’s cash draw if such events were to occur. The liability consists of the following (amounts in thousands):

		June 30, 2017				December 31, 2016
Members’ interest subject to mandatory redemption		$	40,000			$	40,000
Net accumulated earnings			6,346				5,230
Total liability		$	46,346			$	45,230

Earnings, which were included in net accumulated earnings and represent

50%

of total earnings, for the

three

and

six

months ended

June 30, 2017

were

$2.6

million and

$2.5

million, respectively, and were

$3.9

million for both periods in

June 30, 2016.

These amounts were included in “other operating income (expense), net” on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Changes in Noncontrolling Interests

The following table summarizes the changes in the noncontrolling owners’ interests in subsidiaries and joint ventures (amounts in thousands):

		Six Months Ended June 30,
		2017				2016
Balance, beginning of period		$	656			$	(91	)
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest included in equity			1,272				512
Distributions to noncontrolling interest owners			-				-
Balance, end of period		$	1,928			$	(421	)

The increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interest included in equity is due to the Company’s the addition of a Utah based majority-owned joint venture which was

not

ongoing during the same prior year period.
