Dispositions, Relocations and Exit Activities | Note 2- Dispositions, Relocations and Exit Activities During 2014, we were informed that the lease for our China facility would not be extended, and we commenced a search for an alternate site to relocate our facility. In July 2014, the Company’s subsidiary in China entered into a lease for a replacement facility, also located in Shenzhen. The lease has a five year term, included two rent-free months, and requires rent payments of RMB117 (approximately $19 at the current exchange rate) per month for the first three years, increasing to RMB126 (approximately $20) per month for the final two years. In September 2014, the Company’s subsidiary in China entered into agreements with the local village government in Shenzhen, China and the subsidiary’s landlord for the facility the subsidiary is required to vacate. These agreements required the local government to compensate both the subsidiary and landlord for the building, leasehold improvements and additional expenses to be incurred in moving from this facility. The subsidiary received its estimated share of government compensation totaling $815 in 2014. The subsidiary has vacated the former facility premises and has substantially completed the move and transition to the new facility as of December 31, 2014. It is the Company’s policy to recognize this compensation as a pro-rata reduction of expenses as the expenses are recognized. The unrecognized balance is deferred and carried as a current liability. The Company estimates that the total expenses of moving, including forfeited leasehold improvements, moving costs, legal costs, labor retention incentives and business interruption costs will total approximately $1,060. During 2014 the Company recognized $596 of the government’s compensation as a reduction of expenses, of which approximately $840 were recognized in 2014. Expenses totaling approximately $219 are estimated to be incurred in 2015 in relation to this relocation, and $219 of government compensation has been deferred as a current liability and is available to offset such expenses. In 2012, we elected not to renew the lease for our U.K. manufacturing facility which expired in March 2013, and to relocate our sales and services operations to a smaller facility. We recorded a gain in discontinued operations in 2013 amounting to $241, relating to the difference between estimated costs and the actual amounts paid in relation to our relocation. During 2014, we elected to terminate our lease for our U.K. office and repair facility which was to have expired in May 2018. The termination of this lease is effective as of January 31, 2015. Also in 2012, we sold 100% of our ownership interest in RedBlack. During 2014 and 2013, we recognized $61 and $125 in expense, respectively, in discontinued operations arising from customary post-closing working capital adjustments relating to that sale.
