2014 Restructuring Plan

The restructuring charges for the year ended June 27, 2015 consisted of $4.1 million related to workforce reductions and a $0.1 million reversal of restructuring charges related to revised estimates for lease cancellations and commitments.

During the year ended July 1, 2017, July 2, 2016 and June 27, 2015, we paid $0.2 million, $0.5 million and $5.3 million, respectively, to settle the remaining restructuring liabilities in connection with this plan.

Restructuring Plan related to our Manufacturing Operations in Shenzhen, China

During fiscal year 2012, we initiated a restructuring plan in connection with the transfer of a portion of our Shenzhen, China manufacturing operations to Venture Corporation Limited ("Venture").

In connection with this transition, we recorded restructuring charges of $2.5 million during the year ended June 27, 2015.
