        Gross intangible assets increased $42.1 million in fiscal 2012 primarily due to the acquisition of Ember. This increase was offset by the removal of $9.3 million of fully amortized assets and $1.6 million of impaired assets (which had a remaining unamortized balance of $0.7 million, resulting in a $0.7 million charge to selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statement of Income). The impaired assets were written down to zero.

        Amortization expense related to intangible assets for fiscal 2012, 2011 and 2010 was $10.7 million, $9.9 million and $7.5 million, respectively. The estimated aggregate amortization expense for intangible assets subject to amortization for each of the five succeeding fiscal years is as follows (in thousands):
