Note 2: Acquisitions
 
During the second quarter of fiscal 2014, we acquired the assets of one independent La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® dealer in exchange for that dealer’s net notes and accounts receivable, valued at $1.6 million. As a result of the acquisition we reacquired the right to own and operate La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® stores in that market. We recorded an indefinite-lived intangible asset of $0.6 million in our Retail segment related to this reacquired right, which will be amortized and deducted for federal income tax purposes over 15 years. These three stores were included in our Retail segment results upon acquisition.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2014, we acquired the assets of one independent La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® dealer in exchange for that dealer’s net notes and accounts receivable, valued at $1.4 million, and a cash payment to the dealer of $0.8 million. As a result of the acquisition we reacquired the right to own and operate La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® stores in that market. We recorded an indefinite-lived intangible asset of $0.5 million in our Retail segment related to this reacquired right, and goodwill of $1.1 million, which will be amortized and deducted for federal income tax purposes over 15 years. These two stores were included in our Retail segment results upon acquisition.

The fiscal 2014 acquisitions were not material to our financial position or our results of operations, and therefore, pro forma financial information is not presented. The net notes and accounts receivable described above are considered non-cash investing activities as they relate to our consolidated statement of cash flows.

In the second quarter of fiscal 2013, we acquired the assets of La-Z Recliner Shops, Inc., an independent operator of nine La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® stores and one distribution center in the southern Ohio market, for $17.4 million composed of cash and the forgiveness of accounts payable. The nine stores were included in our Retail segment results upon acquisition.
 
Prior to this acquisition, we had licensed the exclusive right to own and operate La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® stores in the southern Ohio market to La-Z Recliner Shops, Inc. The effective settlement of this arrangement resulted in no settlement gain or loss as the contractual terms were at market value. As a result of the acquisition we reacquired the right (a part of which relates to the use of associated trademarks and trade name in southern Ohio) to own and operate La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® stores in the southern Ohio market. We recorded an indefinite-lived intangible asset of $2.2 million related to this reacquired right. We also recognized $12.8 million of goodwill, which represents the purchase price in excess of the net assets acquired. The goodwill and other intangible assets were recorded in the Retail segment and will be amortized and deducted for federal income tax purposes over 15 years.
 
The purchase price allocations were based on fair values at the date of acquisition and are summarized in the following table:
