According to its Annual Report filed with the SEC for fiscal year 2012: "On November 28, 2012, ITT acquired all the shares of Bornemann, a manufacturer of pumps and systems utilized in the oil & gas, marine, food and pharmaceutical industries, headquartered in Germany. In accordance with U.S. regulations prohibiting business with Iran by U.S. persons and their owned or controlled non-U.S. affiliates, Bornemann agreed in connection with its acquisition by ITT to terminate all contracts with companies in Iran, which agreement was memorialized in the Share Purchase Agreement. Bornemann sent contract termination notices having immediate effect to those companies on November 28, 2012.

Following issuance of the termination notices, Bornemann received from Oil & Energy Industries Development Q. Co. (OEID), a prepayment of approximately €670,000 for future services under one of the terminated contracts. The terminated contract involved an adaption and start-up of pump systems that Bornemann had shipped prior to its acquisition by ITT.

On December 26, 2012, the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Department of the Treasury (OFAC) issued a General License authorizing foreign subsidiaries of U.S. companies through March 8, 2013, to wind down any ongoing transactions or dealings involving Iran that would otherwise be unlawful under ITRA Section 218, which extended the U.S. sanctions against Iran to non-U.S. entities owned or controlled by U.S. companies. Pursuant to the General License, and in an effort to resolve and mitigate the issues surrounding termination of the contract, Bornemann will be performing certain wind-down services under the terminated OEID contract. Profit from these activities will not be known until the end of the first quarter of 2013. Upon expiration of the permissible wind-down period on March 8, 2013, Bornemann will not provide any goods or services in Iran or related to the terminated contract."
