The weighted average estimated useful life remaining for customer relationships, supply contracts, definite-lived trade names and technology is approximately 17 years, 19 years, 16 years, and 16 years, respectively. Amortization expense for the definite-lived intangible assets was $16.8 million and $11.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Total definite-lived intangible assets estimated annual amortization expense for the next five fiscal years is approximately $67.1 million per year. Restructuring: In September 2013, we initiated a restructuring plan in our building products segment consisting of various cost saving initiatives, including the reduction of overhead and plant labor, and the consolidation of various plants, primarily in the window and door profiles reporting unit, to improve utilization and efficiencies. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we recorded a $1.1 million restructuring charge in our building products segment that is included in Transaction-related costs and other, net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. We expect to complete these restructuring initiatives in 2015 with additional expected costs in 2014 and 2015 totaling a combined $5.6 million.
