In the first quarter of 2018, we recorded a gain from the settlement of antitrust litigation in the amount of $3.6 million as a result of the settlement of a class action lawsuit, filed in 2005, which alleged that Dow Chemical Company and other urethane raw material suppliers unlawfully agreed to fix, raise, maintain or stabilize the prices of Polyether Polyol Products sold in the United States from January 1, 1999 through December 31, 2004 in violation of the federal antitrust laws. We recorded a receivable for this claim and received payment in April 2018. In the first quarter of 2017, we completed the planned sale of a parcel of land in Belgium that had been classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2016 and recognized a gain on sale of approximately $0.9 million.
