RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

Fiscal 2011 Restructuring Plan

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, we initiated a restructuring plan consisting of reductions in workforce and the consolidation of facilities in order to better align our resources around our Digital Media and Digital Marketing strategies.

During the three months ended March 1, 2013, we continued to implement restructuring activities under this plan. Total costs incurred to date and expected to be incurred for closing redundant facilities are $10.9 million as all facilities under this plan have been exited as of March 1, 2013.

Other Restructuring Plans

Other restructuring plans include other Adobe plans and other plans associated with certain of our acquisitions that are substantially complete. We continue to make cash outlays to settle obligations under these plans, however the current impact to our condensed consolidated financial statements is not significant. Our other restructuring plans primarily consist of the 2009 Restructuring Plan, which was implemented in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, in order to appropriately align our costs in connection with our fiscal 2010 operating plan.

During the three months ended March 1, 2013 we vacated approximately 21,000 square feet of sales facilities in Australia in connection with our other restructuring plans.
