RESTRUCTURING EXPENSE

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2012

3. RESTRUCTURING EXPENSE

During the fourth quarter of 2006, we began a facilities consolidation and restructuring program designed to reduce the overall expense structure in an effort to improve future operating performance. The facilities consolidation and restructuring program was substantially completed by the end of the second quarter of 2007.

Restructuring liabilities along with charges (credits) to expense and payments associated with the facilities consolidation and restructuring program are as follows (in thousands):

	Balance at		Accretion		Net Cash					Balance at
	12/31/2011		Expense		Payments			Adjustments		3/31/2012
Lease and contract termination costs	$	1,491	$	39	$	(115	)	$	98	$	1,513

We incurred $98,000 of lease termination costs liability during the three months ended March 31, 2012 due to changes in the estimate of sublease income as a result of our entering into a revised agreement with a sublessee and ceasing the use of one our office facilities. There were no restructuring charges or reversals during the three months ended March 31, 2011.
