The purchase price was allocated to intangible assets as follows: approximately $35,500 to goodwill, which is non-amortizable under GAAP and is not currently deductible for income tax purposes, approximately $26,000 to tradenames, which are amortizable over 30&amp;#160;years and approximately $29,000 to customer relationships, which are amortizable over 22&amp;#160;years. Amortization of the acquired intangible assets is not currently deductible for income tax purposes. The acquisition of Balance Bar is expected to expand our operations in the Wholesale segment in the distribution of nutritional bars. Additionally, we believe that we can achieve operating expense synergies with the integration of Balance Bar into our corporate structure, which is the primary driver behind the excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
