The acquisition purchase price consisted of cash at closing of approximately $1.8 million and contingent earn-out payments of up to $23.2 million over a five-and-a half year period beginning on the date of acquisition. The contingent cash payments will be derived from certain eligible product and service revenue generated during the earn-out period. In connection with the OptoSeis® acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $0.7 million (deductible for tax purposes), other intangible assets of $3.7 million, fixed assets of $1.7 million and has established an initial contingent earn-out liability of $4.3 million.
