We also have an unfunded defined benefit pension plan in Germany, which was not acquired by Knauf in connection with the Sale. This plan is reported as a component of our Unallocated Corporate segment.  Net periodic pension cost for this plan was immaterial for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.
