The US IT Business Sale was pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 8, 2015 (the "Agreement"), by and among the Company, Hudson Global Resources Management, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Purchaser.

As the divestiture did not reach the thresholds required to qualify as discontinued, the operations remain within the Company's continuing operations for all periods presented.
