Commitments and Contingencies	Note 9 – Commitments and Contingencies During the third fiscal quarter of 2013, the Company recorded a $1.5 million liability related to environmental remediation at a previously sold business for which the Company provided indemnification. A loss of $1.0 million, net of tax, is reflected in discontinued operations on the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). On March 5, 2014, the Company entered into a Consent Agreement with the U.S. Department of State’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls Office of Defense Trade Controls Compliance (DTCC) to resolve alleged International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) civil violations. The Consent Agreement settles the pending ITAR compliance matter with the DTCC previously reported by the Company that resulted from voluntary reports the Company filed with DTCC that disclosed possible technical and administrative violations of the ITAR. The Consent Agreement has a three-year term and provides for: (i) a payment of $20 million, $10 million of which is suspended and eligible for offset credit based on verified expenditures for past and future remedial compliance measures; (ii) the appointment of an external Special Compliance Official to oversee compliance with the Consent Agreement and the ITAR; (iii) two external audits of the Company’s ITAR compliance program; and (iv) continued implementation of ongoing remedial compliance measures and additional remedial compliance measures related to automated systems and ITAR compliance policies, procedures, and training. The settlement amount in the Consent Agreement is consistent with the amount proposed by DTCC in August 2013, for which the Company estimated and recorded a $10 million charge in the fiscal quarter ended July 26, 2013. The $10 million portion of the settlement that is not subject to suspension will be paid in installments, with $4 million paid in March 2014, and $2 million to be paid in each of March 2015, 2016, and 2017. The Company expects some part of recent investments made in our ITAR compliance program will be eligible for credit against the suspended portion of the settlement amount, which include: additional staffing, ongoing implementation of a new software system, employee training, and establishment of a regular compliance audit program and corrective action process. The Company expects recent and future investments in remedial compliance measures will be sufficient to cover the $10 million suspended payment.
