Income from Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act	Note 22: Income from Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act The Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act of 2000 (“CDSOA”) provides for distribution of duties collected by U.S. Customs and Border Protection from antidumping cases to domestic producers that supported the antidumping petition.

In view of the uncertainties associated with this program, we are unable to predict the amounts, if any, we may receive in the future under the CDSOA. Also, if the United States Supreme Court were to reverse the judgments of the Federal Circuit and determine that the Non-Supporting Producers are entitled to CDSOA distributions, it is possible that Customs might seek to have us return all or a portion of our company’s share of the distributions. Based on what we know today, we do not expect this to occur. The $11.1 million and $6.9 million we received in fiscal 2012 related to continuing operations and discontinued operations, respectively, included $10.0 million and $6.3 million, respectively, of previously withheld distributions received in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012.

Note 22: Income from Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act

The Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act of 2000 (“CDSOA”) provides for distribution of duties collected by U.S. Customs and Border Protection from antidumping cases to domestic producers that supported the antidumping petition. We received $11.1 million related to continuing operations and $6.9 million related to discontinued operations during fiscal 2012 in CDSOA distributions related to the antidumping order on wooden bedroom furniture from China. Certain domestic producers who did not support the antidumping petition (“Non-Supporting Producers”) filed actions in the U.S. Court of International Trade challenging the CDSOA’s “support requirement” and seeking a share of the distributions. As a result, Customs withheld a portion of those distributions pending resolution of the Non-Supporting Producers’ actions.
