Restructuring and Acquisition-Related Charges

In 2012, 2011 and 2010, we incurred restructuring and acquisition-related charges of $110.6 million, $97.3 million and $84.4 million, respectively. In 2012, we incurred $100.9 million of restructuring charges, primarily related to our current year restructuring programs and $9.7 million of charges in connection with acquisitions for financial, advisory, legal and accounting services. In 2011, we incurred $86.0 million of restructuring charges, of which $63.2 million primarily related to our 2011 restructuring programs and $11.3 million of charges in connection with acquisitions for financial, advisory, legal and accounting services. In 2010, we incurred $76.7 million of restructuring charges, of which $37.8 million primarily related to our 2010 restructuring program and $7.7 million of charges in connection with acquisitions for financial, advisory, legal and accounting services.

During 2012, we implemented separate restructuring programs to create further operational efficiencies which will result in a workforce reduction of 1,163 positions. The actions impacted positions around the globe covering our Information Storage, RSA Information Security and Information Intelligence Group segments. All of these actions are expected to be completed within a year of the start of each program.

During 2011, we implemented separate restructuring programs to create further operational efficiencies which resulted in a workforce reduction of 787 positions and the vacation of certain facilities. These actions impacted positions around the globe covering our Information Storage, RSA Information Security and Information Intelligence Group segments. All of these actions were completed by the end of 2012.

During 2010, we implemented a restructuring program to create further operational efficiencies which resulted in a workforce reduction of approximately 400 positions. These actions impacted positions around the globe covering our Information Storage, RSA Information Security and Information Intelligence Group segments. All of these actions were completed by the end of 2011.

During 2012, 2011 and 2010, we recognized $20.8 million, $26.1 million and $31.6 million, respectively, of lease termination costs for facilities vacated in the period in accordance with our plan as part of all of our restructuring programs and for costs associated with terminating other contractual obligations. These costs are expected to be utilized by the end of 2015. The remaining cash portion owed for these programs in 2013 is approximately $11.7 million, plus an additional $12.3 million over the period from 2014 and beyond.
