.0 million and $42.0 million for settlement of the litigation for a total of $52.0 million. The total settlement was comprised of $24.0 million of cash paid at closing and a promissory note for $28.0 million to be paid in three equal installments of $9.3 million on each of April 1, 2025, April 1, 2026, and April 1, 2027, plus accrued interest. The settlement charge was recorded in other operating income, net in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

The License Agreement, which provided us the license to continue operating our asphalt and marine fuel terminal operations on the property for a term of ten years and expired in June 2020, also ascribed a contractual noncontingent indemnification guarantee to certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries related to certain incremental environmental remediation activities, predicated on the completion of certain property development activities ascribed to the lessor was formally terminated in the settlement. As a result of the termination of the License Agreement, we are no longer obligated to remove equipment from the property for certain development activities and as a result we have reversed the $17.9 million asset retirement obligation recorded in connection with the Delek/Alon Merger, effective July 1, 2017, since we own the property and intend to operate the property as an asphalt and marine fuel terminal and there was no remaining basis in the equipment. Additionally, as a result of the settlement, we reduced the non-contingent guarantee and environmental liability to $1.0 million since our risk of a contingent guarantee was eliminated and determined it appropriate to retain an accrual based on what we can reasonably estimate as the cost of the initial steps once operations cease or a cleanup is ordered. Total net gain from the property settlement was $53.4 million and was recorded in other operating income, net in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2024; no gain was recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2024.
