(a) In fiscal 2008, the Company completed the transaction for the sale of its headquarters facility and plant in Union, New Jersey. The sale agreement and amended lease agreement permitted the Company to lease the facility through May 1, 2010, pending the Company’s relocation to a new site. The lease had been accounted for as an operating lease. The transaction resulted in a realized pre-tax gain, net of sale expenses, of approximately $6,800, and a deferred gain of approximately $1,700. The deferred gain represented the present value of the minimum lease payments over the term of the lease.
