During the first quarter of fiscal 2010, we finalized our valuation of the fair values for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed regarding the purchase of the Bodet & Horst USA, LP and Bodet & Horst GMBH & Co. KG's (collectively "Bodet & Horst") knitted mattress fabric operation located in High Point, NC. As a result of this final valuation, we recorded an adjustment to increase the fair value of the non-compete agreement and reduce the fair value of the goodwill by $131,000.
