The sale of the Company’s railcar repair and maintenance services business on September 30, 2015 resulted in $1,960 of the aggregate purchase price being placed into escrow in order to secure the indemnification obligations of FCRS and FCSL. The fair market value of the remaining escrow receivable above represents the escrow balance of $980 as of each of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, net of the fair value of the indemnification obligations, which was estimated using the discounted probability-weighted cash flow method.
