Prior to 2002, the Company made certain life insurance premium payments for the benefit of Mr. Smulyan. The Company discontinued making such payments in 2001; however, pursuant to a Split Dollar Life Insurance Agreement and Limited Collateral Assignment dated November 2, 1997, the Company retains the right, upon Mr. Smulyan’s death, resignation or termination of employment, to recover all of the premium payments it has made, which total $1.1 million.
As previously discussed in Note 8, the Company received an offer from EAC, an Indiana corporation owned by Jeffrey H. Smulyan, the Company’s Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and controlling shareholder, setting forth a non-binding proposal by which EAC would acquire all the outstanding shares of Class A common stock of the Company. During the year ended February 28, 2017, the Company incurred $0.9 of costs associated with the offer, which are included in corporate expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The going private offer expired on October 14, 2016. No further costs are expected to be incurred in connection with the going private offer as it has expired. See Note 8 for further discussion of the going private offer.
