No finance lease assets or liabilities were acquired during the three months ended December 31, 2021.

(b)Goodwill is generally expected to be deductible for income tax purposes and is primarily attributed to the operational synergies and potential growth expected to result in economic benefits in the respective markets of the acquisitions.

(c)Intangible assets acquired during the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 have weighted average amortization periods of 9 and 5 years, respectively.

(d)Prior to the acquisition of former franchise service center stores, the Company licensed the right to operate franchised service centers, including the use of Valvoline's trademarks and trade name. In connection with these acquisitions, Valvoline reacquired those rights and recognized separate definite-lived reacquired franchise rights intangible assets, which are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the weighted average remaining term of approximately 10 years for the rights reacquired in fiscal 2023. The effective settlement of these arrangements resulted in no settlement gain or loss as the contractual terms were at market.
