Acquisitions in the year are related to the Huntsman acquisition based on our provisional assessment of the fair value of the other intangible assets acquired. In the first quarter of 2017 we allocated $33.5 million of goodwill to intangibles relating to the acquisition completed on December 30, 2016. The intangible assets relate to customer relationships.

In addition, the Company completed the acquisition of customer and distributor lists in the Americas and Asia Pacific from Huntsman Holland B.V. for $4.2 million in cash on August 9, 2017.

Internally developed software has been capitalized in relation to a new information system platform for the acquired Huntsman business.
