10.    Restructuring Charges

The Company implemented restructuring plans during its nine-month transition period ended December 31, 2010 and during fiscal 2010 and 2009. The goals of these plans were to bring the Company’s operational expenses to appropriate levels relative to its historical net revenues, while simultaneously implementing extensive company-wide expense-control programs. All expenses, including adjustments, associated with the Company’s restructuring plans are included in “Restructuring charges” in the Condensed Statements of Operations. These plans were completed as of December 31, 2011 so there is no restructuring activity in the three-month period ended March 31, 2012.
