As part of the purchase price of Ironman, we had $3,000,000 in contingent payments based on Ironman achieving certain income targets. These targets were not met and are not expected to be reasonably met by March 31. 2013. Therefore the non-current liabilities were reduced by $3,000,000. The reduction is reflected in the Provision of Expenses line for the Period Ended December 31, 2012 (Note 6). The treatment for the reduction in liability was to reduce the intangible assets and goodwill for the Period Ended December 31, 2012.
