Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
The Company has implemented a restructuring plan designed to further align employee headcount with the Company’s projected workload. The Company has eliminated approximately 30 employee positions and has accelerated the termination dates of approximately 10 employees included in previously announced restructurings. The Company completed its communication of the restructuring plan to its employees on June 26, 2008.
The Company expects to take a charge to earnings of approximately $3.3 million in connection with the current restructuring plan (which includes the previously announced severance payments to the Company’s former Executive Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer). Approximately $2.3 million of the total charges are expected to be incurred in the second quarter of 2008 and the remaining charges will be incurred in the third quarter of 2008. The charges are termination benefits to employees. Approximately $3.0 million of the total charges are expected to be future cash
expenditures payable by the Company, and approximately $0.3 million of the total charges are expected to be credits to participants’ pension plan accounts funded by the Company’s pension plan assets.
