NOTE 17 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Contingencies
During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2014, the Spanish National Appellate Court issued an opinion upholding an assessment for various VAT
matters pertaining to periods prior to fiscal 2004. Although the Company believes that the Spanish subsidiary's defense to the assessments has solid
legal grounds and is continuing to vigorously defend its position by appealing to the Spanish Supreme Court, the risk that the assessments will be
upheld has significantly increased. The Spanish National Appellate Court opinion represents a subsequent event that occurred prior to the issuance
of the fiscal 2013 financial statements in relation to a loss contingency that existed as of January 31, 2013. As a result of this subsequent event,
which is unrelated to the restatement discussed in Note 2 - Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company has increased its
accrual for costs associated with this matter by recording a charge of $41.0 million in the fiscal 2013 Consolidated Statement of Income, including
$29.5 million recorded in "value added tax assessment" to cover the assessment and various penalties and $11.5 million recorded in "interest
expense" for interest that could be assessed (see further discussion in Note 14 - Commitments and Contingencies).
The Company has been a claimant in proceedings seeking damages from certain manufacturers of LCD flat panel displays. During the third quarter
of fiscal 2014, the Company reached settlement agreements with certain manufacturers in the amount of $22.9 million , net of all attorney fees and
expenses. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company reached a settlement agreement with an additional manufacturer in the amount of
approximately $12.5 million , net of estimated attorney fees and expenses. As each of these settlement agreements represents a subsequent event in
relation to a gain contingency, the amounts will be recorded as a reduction of expenses in fiscal 2014.
Restatement Related Expenses
In connection with the matters described in Note 2 - Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company estimates that costs
associated with the restatement efforts will be approximately $50 million to $60 million in fiscal 2014.
