        On December 2, 2011, we acquired Telair International GmbH ("Telair") and Nordisk Aviation Products, AS ("Nordisk"). Telair is a leader in the design, manufacture and support of cargo loading systems for wide-body and narrow-body aircraft with established positions on the world's most popular current and next-generation passenger and freighter aircraft. Telair operates from facilities in Germany, Sweden and Singapore. Nordisk designs and manufactures heavy duty pallets and lightweight cargo containers for commercial airlines from facilities in Norway and China. The purchase price of the acquisition was $280.0 million paid at closing, plus or minus a working capital adjustment. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, the working capital adjustment was finalized, which increased the purchase price to $296.5 million. The $16.5 million working capital adjustment was paid in the first quarter of fiscal 2013. The unit operates as part of our Technology Products segment.

        During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, we completed the final purchase price allocation for Telair and Nordisk. We made an adjustment between goodwill and identified intangibles of $11.0 million as part of the final purchase price allocation. The results of the final purchase price allocation are as follows:

        On October 11, 2011, we acquired Airinmar Holdings Limited ("Airinmar"), a sophisticated repair, outsourcing and warranty claim manager. Airinmar operates as part of our Aviation Services segment. Total consideration was estimated to be $43.5 million, which included $23.2 million cash paid at closing, and a potential earn-out payment of $20.3 million. The potential earn-out payment was to be based upon Airinmar achieving certain EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) levels over a two-year period, as well as retaining certain key customers. A liability of $20.3 million was recognized as an estimate of the acquisition date fair value of the earn-out and was included in Other liabilities and deferred income on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. During the fourth quarter of 2012, this estimate was reduced by $3.4 million and this change in the fair value of the earn-out was recognized in earnings. During the third quarter of fiscal 2013, we agreed with the sellers of Airinmar to a $4.6 million final settlement for the earn-out. The $9.0 million change in the fair value of the earn-out liability was recognized in earnings.

        During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, we completed the final purchase price allocation for Airinmar and the results are as follows:
