We purchased the remaining interest of this Variable Interest Entity ("VIE") for $45.0 million on April 28, 2016. We recorded a charge of $25.5 million to equity as a result of the difference between the fair value of the consideration of $45.0 million less the $19.5 million carrying value of the noncontrolling interest. Refer to Note 6, “Variable interest Entities”, for disclosures related to the purchase of the remaining interest in our VIE.
