17. North American Site Consolidation Plan

On February 18, 2013, we announced a North American site consolidation plan (the “Site Consolidation Plan”) designed to create a more simplified and efficient organization that is aligned more closely with our business priorities. The Site Consolidation Plan included the closing of twelve offices and one warehouse in conjunction with changes to our corporate operating models intended to reduce costs associated with product solutions development. The costs of implementing these changes primarily consisted of employee severance and relocation costs. We substantially completed the Site Consolidation Plan during the year ended December 31, 2014 and additional estimated costs yet to be incurred in connection with the Site Consolidation Plan, which primarily consist of lease-related costs, are not expected to be material.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, we recognized benefits of approximately $2.2 million due to the release of previously accrued severance costs which we no longer expect to pay and paid the remaining $2.0 million outstanding balance of the severance costs liability that was initially established in the first quarter of 2013. During the year ended December 31, 2013, we incurred approximately $20.1 million in severance, retention bonuses and relocation expenses costs resulting from the Site Consolidation Plan. These amounts are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in our consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, with the exception of $3.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, included in research and development. The portion of these amounts allocable to our reportable segments is not material.
