____________________________
(1)
Amounts in 2015 and 2014 include additional proceeds recognized upon the extension of the underlying franchise and lease agreements related to restaurants sold in a prior year of $0.0 million and $0.7 million, respectively, in the quarter, and $0.1 million and $1.2 million, respectively, year-to-date.
(2)
Amounts in 2015 include lease commitment charges related to restaurants closed in connection with the sale of the related market, and charges for operating restaurant leases with lease commitments in excess of our sublease rental income.
(3)
Amounts in 2014 relate to losses on the expected sale of approximately 30 company-operated restaurants in two Jack in the Box markets sold in the fourth quarter of 2014 and the second quarter of 2015.
Franchise acquisitions — In 2015, we acquired six Jack in the Box franchise restaurants in one market, and during 2014 we repurchased four Jack in the Box franchise restaurants in another market. We account for the acquisition of franchised restaurants using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. The purchase price allocations were based on fair value estimates determined using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). Acquisitions were not material to our condensed consolidated financial statements in either year.
