As part of the Corporation's continued efforts to drive efficiency and simplification, the Corporation entered into a sale-leaseback transaction in the first quarter of 2018, selling a manufacturing facility and subsequently leasing back a portion of the facility for a term of 10 years. The net proceeds from the sale of the facility of $16.9 million are reflected in "Proceeds from sale and license of property, plant, equipment, and intangibles" in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. In accordance with ASC 840, Leases, the $5.1 million gain on the sale of the facility was deferred and is being amortized as a reduction to rent expense evenly over the term of the lease. As of December 29, 2018, the current portion of the deferred gain is $0.5 million and included within "Accounts payable and accrued expenses" and the long-term portion of the deferred gain is $4.2 million and included within "Other Long-Term Liabilities" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The transaction did not have a material impact to the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
