Item 2.06. Material Impairments.

 

On March 20, 2006, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of ALH Holding Inc., the parent of Alliance Laundry Systems LLC (the “Company”), resolved to discontinue the sale of AJAX® finished goods. The Company expects to discontinue the sale of AJAX® finished goods upon the closure of the Company’s Marianna Florida facility, which closure is expected to be completed by the end of the third quarter of this year. In connection with this discontinuance, the Company expects to record a non-cash charge for impairment of approximately $2.6 million in the first quarter ending March 31, 2006, for the reduction in the value of the AJAX® trademark. The Company does not believe that the impairment of the AJAX® trademark will result in any future cash expenditures.
