RESTRUCTURING COSTS AND ACCRUALS

2013 Restructuring Plans

In June 2013, the Company’s leadership evaluated the marketing and selling teams and, in an effort to better align sales resources with the Company’s strategic goals and enhance its global account team approach, eliminated 31 positions. As a result, the Company recognized related restructuring costs of $1.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2013.

2012 Restructuring Plan

In June 2012, the Company committed to a series of strategic actions (the “2012 Plan”) to focus on the Broadcast and Media market and Video and Audio Post and Professional market and to drive improved operating performance. These actions included the divestiture of certain of the Company’s consumer-focused product lines, a rationalization of the business operations and a reduction in force. Actions under the plan included the elimination of approximately 280 positions in June 2012 and the abandonment of one of the Company’s facilities in Burlington, Massachusetts and the partial abandonment of facilities in Mountain View and Daly City, California, in September 2012. During 2012, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $13.9 million related to severance costs and $8.6 million for the closure or partial closure of facilities, which included non-cash amounts of $1.4 million for fixed asset write-offs and $1.0 million for deferred rent liability write-offs. The Company substantially completed all actions under the 2012 Plan prior to December 31, 2012.

During the first six months of 2013, the Company recorded revisions totaling $0.8 million, primarily resulting from sublease assumption changes and other lease-related fees.

Prior Year Restructuring Plans

During the first six months of 2012, the Company recorded revisions totaling $0.8 million, primarily resulting from sublease
assumption changes related to the abandonment of facilities under the 2008 and 2010 Restructuring Plans.

During the first six months of 2013, the Company recorded revisions totaling $0.2 million, primarily resulting from sublease
assumption changes related to the abandonment of facilities under the 2008 and 2010 Restructuring Plans.

The employee-related accruals at June 30, 2013 represent severance and outplacement costs to former employees that will be paid out within the next twelve months and are, therefore, included in the caption “accrued expenses and other current liabilities” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2013.

The facilities-related accruals at June 30, 2013 represent contractual lease payments, net of subleases, on space vacated as part of the Company’s restructuring actions. The leases, and payments against the amounts accrued, extend through 2021 unless the Company is able to negotiate earlier terminations. Of the total facilities-related accruals, $5.5 million is included in the caption “accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and $3.3 million is included in the caption “other long-term liabilities” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2013.
