Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies

Tax Matters

The Company had been subject to Texas franchise tax audits related to allocated taxable surplus capital for Texas report years 2002 through 2007. The range of the potential total tax liability related to these audits had been estimated to be from $0 million to $34.2 million, plus interest and penalties. During the three months ended March 30, 2013, the Company agreed to settle the audits for $0.1 million in total tax and interest.

Legal Proceedings

During the first quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company received an unfavorable arbitrator’s decision in a legal dispute unrelated to current or future quarters. The arbitrator’s decision was related to, and contrary to the result of, an action which commenced in 2006 in the Western District of Pennsylvania in which the Company was a nominal plaintiff. The Pennsylvania matter was resolved in the Company’s favor in 2009 and was subsequently affirmed by a Federal Appeals Court in January 2011. The arbitration award was confirmed by the California State Superior Court in October 2011. On March 5, 2012 the Pennsylvania District Court denied the Company’s request to vacate the arbitration award, and the parties subsequently reached a settlement agreement on March 22, 2012 pursuant to which the Company paid $7.9 million on April 2, 2012 in full and final settlement of the matter. As of March 31, 2012, the Company had fully accrued for the amount based on final settlement agreement. The accrual for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2012 is included as a component of Selling, general and administrative expense in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company is subject to a variety of claims and suits that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. While Management currently believes that resolving claims against the Company, individually or in aggregate, will not have a material adverse impact on its financial position, results of operations or statement of cash flows, these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and Management’s view of these matters may change in the future. Were an unfavorable final outcome to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the period in which the effect becomes reasonably estimable.

Guarantees

In accordance with authoritative guidance which requires that upon issuance of a guarantee, the guarantor must recognize a liability for the fair value of the obligation it assumes under that guarantee. In addition, disclosures about the guarantees that an entity has issued, including a tabular reconciliation of the changes of the entity’s product warranty liabilities, are required.

The Company from time to time enters into certain types of contracts that contingently require the Company to indemnify parties against third-party claims. These contracts primarily relate to: (i) divestiture agreements, under which the Company may provide customary indemnifications to purchasers of the Company’s businesses or assets; (ii) certain real estate leases, under which the Company may be required to indemnify property owners for environmental and other liabilities, and other claims arising from the Company’s use of the applicable premises; and (iii) certain agreements with the Company’s officers, directors and employees, under which the Company may be required to indemnify such persons for liabilities arising out of their employment relationship.

The terms of such obligations vary. Generally, a maximum obligation is not explicitly stated. Because the obligated amounts of these types of agreements often are not explicitly stated, the overall maximum amount of the obligations cannot be reasonably estimated. Historically, the Company has not been obligated to make significant payments for these obligations, and no liabilities have been recorded for these obligations on its balance sheet as of March 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012.

Product Warranties

In general, the Company offers a three-month to one-year warranty for most of its products. The Company provides reserves for the estimated costs of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized. The Company estimates the costs of its warranty obligations based on its historical experience of known product failure rates, use of materials to repair or replace defective products and service delivery costs incurred in correcting product failures. In addition, from time to time, specific warranty accruals may be made if unforeseen technical problems arise with specific products. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary.

The following table presents the changes in the Company’s warranty reserve (in millions):

	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
	March 30,			March 31,			March 30,			March 31,

Financing Obligations — Eningen, Santa Rosa and Payment Plan Agreement for Software Licenses

Eningen

On December 16, 2011, the Company executed and closed the sale and leaseback transaction of certain buildings and land in Eningen, Germany (the “Eningen Transactions”). The Company sold approximately 394,217 square feet of land, nine buildings with approximately 386,132 rentable square feet, and parking areas. The Company leased back approximately 158,154 rentable square feet comprised of two buildings and a portion of a basement of another building (the “Leased Premises”). The lease term is 10 years with the right to cancel a certain portion of the lease after 5 years. The gross cash proceeds received from the transaction were approximately €7.1 million.

Concurrent with the sale and lease back, the Company has provided collateral in case of a default by the Company relative to future lease payments for the Leased Premises. Due to this continuing involvement, the related portion of the cash proceeds and transaction costs, associated with the Leased Premises and other buildings which the Company continues to occupy, was recorded under the financing method in accordance with the authoritative guidance on leases and sales of real estate. Accordingly, the carrying value of these buildings and associated land will remain on the Company’s books and the buildings will continue to be depreciated over their remaining useful lives. The portion of the proceeds received have been recorded as a financing obligation, a portion of the lease payments are recorded as a decrease to the financing obligation and a portion is recognized as interest expense. Imputed rental income from the buildings sold but not leased back and currently being occupied is recorded as a reduction in the financing obligation.

As of March 30, 2013, of the total financing obligation related to the Eningen Transactions, $0.1 million was included in Other current liabilities, and $5.0 million was included in Other non-current liabilities. As of June 30, 2012, of the total financing obligation related to the Eningen Transactions, $0.1 million was included in Other current liabilities, and $4.9 million was included in Other non-current liabilities.

Santa Rosa

On August 21, 2007, the Company entered into a sale and lease back of certain buildings and land in Santa Rosa, California (the “Santa Rosa Transactions”). The Company sold approximately 45 acres of land, 13 buildings with approximately 492,000 rentable square feet, a building pad, and parking areas. The Company leased back 7 buildings with approximately 286,000 rentable square feet. The net cash proceeds received from the transaction were $32.2 million. The lease terms range from a five-year lease with a one-year renewal option to a ten-year lease with two five-year renewal options.

The Company has an ongoing obligation to remediate environmental matters, impacting the entire site, as required by the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board which existed at the time of sale. Concurrent with the sale and lease back, the Company has issued an irrevocable letter of credit for $3.8 million as security for the remediation of the environmental matter that remains in effect until the issuance of a notice of no further action letter from the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board. In addition, the lease agreement for one building included an option to purchase at fair market value, at the end of the lease term. Due to these various forms of continuing involvement the transaction was recorded under the financing method in accordance with the authoritative guidance on leases and sales of real estate.

Accordingly, the value of the buildings and land will remain on the Company’s books and the buildings will continue to be depreciated over their remaining useful lives. The proceeds received have been recorded as a financing obligation, a portion of the lease payments are recorded as a decrease to the financing obligation and a portion is recognized as interest expense. Imputed rental income from the buildings sold but not leased back is recorded as a reduction in the financing obligation.

As of March 30, 2013, $1.0 million was included in Other current liabilities, and $27.7 million was included in Other non-current liabilities. As of June 30, 2012, $0.9 million was included in Other current liabilities, and $28.5 million was included in Other non-current liabilities.

The lease payments due under the agreements reset to fair market rental rates upon the Company’s execution of the renewal options.

Payment Plan Agreement for Software Licenses

During fiscal 2011 the Company capitalized approximately $7.1 million of cost incurred for the purchase of perpetual software licenses in accordance with the authoritative accounting guidance. The Company entered into a four-year payment plan agreement (“PPA”) with the supplier towards software licenses and technical support. Under this PPA, payments are made annually starting the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The principal portion of the payment is accounted for as a financing activity and the remaining interest portion is accounted for as an operating activity in the statement of cash flows.

During the three and nine months ended March 30, 2013, the Company recorded amortization expense of $0.4 million and $1.1 million in each period, respectively. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2012, the Company recorded amortization expense of $0.4 million and $1.1 million in each period, respectively.
