Note 12 – Restricted Cash

The Company has restricted cash recorded in other assets related to proceeds from an inactive subsidiary of the Company which previously executed separate settlement and release agreements with two of its insurance carriers for an original total value of $35.0 million. The proceeds of both settlements are restricted and can only be used to pay claims and costs of defense associated with the subsidiary’s asbestos litigation. The proceeds of the settlement and release agreements have been deposited into interest bearing accounts which earned $0.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to less than $0.1 in the six months ended June 30, 2018. The interest was offset by $0.3 million of payments during the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $0.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018. Due to the restricted nature of the proceeds, a corresponding deferred credit was established in other non-current liabilities for an equal and offsetting amount, and will remain until the restrictions lapse or the funds are exhausted via payments of claims and costs of defense.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of June 30, 2019 and 2018 and December 31, 2018 and 2017:
