Restructuring and Related Charges

In July 2020, our Board of Directors approved a restructuring plan designed to optimize certain organizational structures within the Company to better support our continued growth and business priorities. These changes are expected to be implemented over a period of up to twenty-four months from the date of approval. The plan is expected to require charges to be approximately $7 million to $8 million, with annualized savings in the range of $0.9 million to $1.6 million. Since its approval, we recorded a net pre-tax amount equal to $6.8 million in restructuring and related charges associated with this plan.

The following table presents activity related to our restructuring obligations related to our 2020 restructuring plan:
