The Company’s vacant facility in San Leandro, California, remained classified as an asset held for sale as of June 30, 2011, consistent with the classification at December 31, 2010. The Company concluded, in the quarter ended June 30, 2011, that the San Leandro facility, associated with the North American segment, is expected to be sold below carrying value, and therefore recorded an impairment charge, within general and administrative expense, of $1.1 million, equal to the amount by which carrying value exceeds net estimated realizable value. In April 2011, the facility in France, which was acquired in the Aginco purchase, was sold for an amount approximately equal to its carrying cost.
