Additionally, there was a reduction in the restructuring accrual of $92,000 during the nine months ended December 31, 2012 for costs that were less than originally estimated.

On September 9, 2011, the Company sold the Cleo Christmas gift wrap business and certain Cleo assets to Impact. Impact acquired the Christmas gift wrap portion of Cleo’s business and certain of Cleo’s assets relating to such business, including certain equipment, contract rights, customer lists, intellectual property and other intangible assets. Cleo’s remaining assets, including accounts receivable and inventory, were excluded from the sale. Cleo retained the right and obligation to fulfill all customer orders for Cleo Christmas gift wrap products for Christmas 2011. The purchase price was $7,500,000, of which $2,000,000 was paid to Cleo in cash at closing. The remainder of the purchase price was paid through the issuance by Impact of an unsecured subordinated promissory note, which provides for quarterly payments of interest at 7% and principal payments as follows: $500,000 on March 1, 2012; $2,500,000 on March 1, 2013; and all remaining principal and interest on March 1, 2014. All interest payments to date and the $500,000 principal payment due on March 1, 2012 were paid when due. As of December 31, 2012, $2,500,000 of this note receivable was recorded in other current assets and $2,500,000 of this note receivable was recorded in other long term assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company subsequently received a $2,500,000 principal payment on January 23, 2013 in advance of the March 1, 2013 due date.
