10. Assets Held for Sale

During 2016, the Company entered into a listing agreement with a broker to sell a building and related improvements in New York City, which are part of our corporate assets. The property has been reclassified from building and building improvements, as well as furniture and fixtures to assets held for sale as these assets were approved for immediate sale in their present condition, were expected to be sold within one year and management was actively working to locate buyers for this building and related improvements.

Pursuant to an agreement entered into by the Company, as of September 12, 2017, with 26 W. 56 LLC, the Company closed on the sale of its New York facilities on July 19, 2018 with a carrying value of $0.4 million for $14.0 million, exclusive of closing costs. The Company recognized a gain on the sale of the New York facilities of $12.5 million. Additionally, the sale of the New York facilities resulted in net proceeds of $10.4 million to the Company, as defined by the Indenture governing the Notes, which is calculated differently than the recognized gain for financial reporting purposes. In order to arrive at net proceeds, as defined by the Indenture, the Company is permitted to hold back certain amounts related to taxes, relocation expenses and capital expenditures that are expected to become payable in the future. The net proceeds of $10.4 million was used to repay a portion of the Notes on August 23, 2018.
