DISPOSITION

In March 2015 the Company announced a restructuring of its NATG business and closed 31 retail stores and a warehouse during the second quarter of fiscal 2015.  The Company assessed the disposal group under ASU 2014-08 and concluded the closure of the disposal group to be a "strategic shift". However, this strategic shift was not determined to be a "major" strategic shift based on the portion of our consolidated business that the disposal group represented. Accordingly this disposal group is not presented in the accompanying financial statements as discontinued operations and remains in continuing operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 and prior periods.

On November 17, 2015 the Company and PCM entered into an asset purchase agreement under which PCM acquired certain business to business assets of NATG, including the TigerDirect brand, for $14 million in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities.  The proceeds from the sale are recorded in special charges, net within NATG discontinued operations loss. PCM did not acquire cash, accounts receivable, inventory or assume trade payables in connection with the transaction.  This transaction closed on December 1, 2015 and on that date, the parties entered into a transition services agreement to facilitate an orderly transition of the purchased assets and for the provision of various IT and back office support services. The Company announced that after the sale and certain transition services agreements with PCM were completed, the Company would completely exit the remaining NATG operations during early 2016.  This exit plan included the closing of the three remaining retail stores and management operations, the closing of its NATG distribution center, and implementing a general workforce reduction representing a major strategic shift, and, as a result the B2B and Ecommerce business and the three remaining retail stores in operation at the time of the sale are presented as discontinued operations.
