In circumstances where the useful life of the stack replacement extends beyond the contractual term of the SA and the Company retains title for the stack from the customer upon expiration or non-renewal of the SA, the cost of the stack replacement is recorded as a long term asset and is depreciated over its expected life. If the Company does not obtain rights to title from the customer, the cost of the stack is expensed at the time of restack. Accumulated depreciation was $10.4 million and $7.6 million for the periods ended July 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012, respectively.
