The current and noncurrent Rocketdyne Business integration costs incurred and capitalized as of November 30, 2015 and 2014 totaled $34.3 million and $38.1 million, respectively. These integration costs are reimbursable by the U.S. government upon its audit and approval that the Company's planned integration savings will exceed its restructuring costs by a factor of at least two to one. In December 2014, the Company was informed that the Defense Contract Audit Agency had completed its audit of the Company’s restructuring proposal and found that the Company had achieved the required minimum two to one savings to restructuring cost ratio.  Actual recovery of the previously deferred integration costs will take place after the determination from the Under Secretary of Defense that the audited restructuring savings exceed the costs by a factor of two to one and final execution of an Advance Agreement with the Defense Contract Management Agency.  The Company believes these final two actions will be completed in first quarter of fiscal 2016. The Company reviews on a quarterly basis the probability of recovery of these costs.
The Company amortizes deferred financing costs over the estimated life of the related debt. Amortization of deferred financing costs was $2.7 million, $3.6 million, and $4.5 million in fiscal 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively.
h.  Assets Held for Sale
As of February 28, 2015, the Company classified approximately 550 acres of its Sacramento Land, known as Hillsborough and representing a portion of the 6,000 acre Easton Master Plan, as assets held for sale as a result of its plans to sell the Hillsborough land. The Hillsborough land was reported as real estate held for entitlement and leasing as of November 30, 2014. For operating segment reporting, the Hillsborough land has been reported as a part of the Real Estate segment.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company finalized the sale of the Hillsborough land for a total purchase price of $57.0 million which was comprised of $46.7 million cash and $10.3 million of promissory notes. The total acreage covered by the Hillsborough land transaction was approximately 700 acres, of which approximately 550 acres was recognized as a sale in the second quarter of fiscal 2015. At the initial closing, the buyer paid $40.0 million cash and executed a $9.0 million promissory note secured by a first lien Deed of Trust on a portion of the sale property which resulted in a gain of $30.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2015. The $9.0 million promissory note secured by a first lien Deed of Trust is divided into two components: (i) a $3.0 million 7% promissory note payable 7 years after close of escrow, which includes a possible $1.0 million reduction in principal if the Company is unable to obtain the necessary road and utility approvals, and (ii) a $6.0 million 7% promissory note payable 7 years after close of escrow and only payable after certain environmental clearances associated with "Area 40" (discussed below) are obtained by the Company. The sale also included a $1.3 million non-interest bearing promissory note secured by a first lien Deed of Trust on a portion of the sale property associated with the location of future city roads. In addition, approximately 150 acres of this land, including a 50-acre portion known as “Area 40,” was held back from the initial closing. Upon receipt of regulatory approvals, a closing will take place for the sale of the developable portions of such holdback acreage for a purchase price of $6.7 million in cash. A summary of the impact of the land sale on the consolidated statement of operations for fiscal 2015 is as follows (in millions):

In November 2014, the Company classified its energy business (the "Energy Business") as assets held for sale as a result of its plans to sell the business. The Company divested the Energy Business in July 2015 for an insignificant amount of proceeds. The Company incurred approximately $1.8 million of expenses to divest its Energy Business. The assets and liabilities of the Energy Business for all periods presented were insignificant. The plan was a result of management’s decision to focus its capital and resources on its Aerospace and Defense and Real Estate operating segments.  The net sales associated with the Energy Business totaled $0.6 million in fiscal 2015 and 2014. For operating segment reporting, the Energy Business has been reported as a part of the Aerospace and Defense segment. 
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement associated with the sale of certain intellectual property related to a solar power contract.  The related contract was terminated in connection with the sale. The proceeds from the sale were $7.5 million resulting in a gain of $6.8 million which is included in "Other, net" in the consolidated statement of operations.

l. Redeemable Common Stock
The Company inadvertently failed to register with the SEC the issuance of certain of its common shares in its defined contribution 401(k) employee benefit plan (the “Plan”). As a result, certain Plan participants who purchased such securities pursuant to the Plan may have the right to rescind certain of their purchases for consideration equal to the purchase price paid for the securities (or if such security has been sold, to receive consideration with respect to any loss incurred on such sale) plus interest from the date of purchase. As of November 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company has classified 0.1 million shares as redeemable common stock because the redemption features are not within the control of the Company. The Company may also be subject to civil and other penalties by regulatory authorities as a result of the failure to register these shares. These shares have always been treated as outstanding for financial reporting purposes. In June 2008, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-8 to register future transactions in the Company's stock fund in the Plan. During fiscal 2015, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded less than $(0.1) million, $0.9 million, and $(1.0) million, respectively, for realized (gains)/losses and interest associated with this matter.
