Insurance recoveries reflect, in part, amounts we received from certain of our former insurance carriers and relate to the recovery of prior lead pigment and asbestos litigation defense costs incurred by NL. In May 2012, we recognized a $14.7 million pre-tax gain related to the third and final closing associated with certain real property formerly owned by NL in New Jersey, based on the excess of the $15.6 million cash proceeds received over the carrying value of the property. See N ote 15 to our 2012 Annual Report.
