Restructuring

During 2010, we incurred restructuring charges of $10.3 million that consisted of additional severance costs of $8.9 million, including $3.0 million in the YRC Freight segment and $5.1 million at the Corporate and other segment as we reduced headcount in response to lower volumes. We also incurred $9.3 million of contract terminations related to lease cancellations related to certain discontinued operations to our consolidated financial statements. This is offset by $7.9 million in our YRC Freight segment where we were able to use or sublease locations in excess of our previously recorded estimate.

We reassess the accrual requirements under the above restructuring efforts at the end of each reporting period. Restructuring charges are included in “Salaries, wages and employees' benefits” as it relates to employee separation costs and “Operating expenses and supplies” as it relates to contract terminations and other costs in the accompanying statements of operations. Amounts related to our YRC Logistics segment are included in “Net income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax” in the accompanying statements of operations.

A rollforward of the restructuring accrual is set forth below:
