12. RESTRUCTURING

In December 2011, the Company restructured its operations by reducing its workforce by 35 employees, or 28%. Restructuring charges totaling $1.1 million were recorded in 2011 and included severance and related costs. The charge included $0.5 million to research and development expense and $0.6 million to general and administrative expense.

In November 2012, the Company notified 21 Bothell, Washington based employees that they would be terminated as part of the corporate headquarters relocation to Cambridge, Massachusetts. Terminated employees were given various incentives to remain through a transition period which was completed in 2013. During 2013, the transition period was extended for a certain employee through the first quarter of 2014.

For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recorded a restructuring charge of $0.1 million to research and development expense and $0.1 million to general and administrative expense associated with the 2012 portion of the transition period.

For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company recorded a restructuring charge of $0.4 million to research and development expense and $0.4 million to general and administrative expense associated with the 2013 portion of the transition period. All remaining transition costs are expected to be paid in 2014.
