RESTRUCTURING

During the second quarter of 2009, the Company recorded restructuring expenses of $50.3 million, which included $9.0 million relating to employee termination benefits, $36.3 million of asset impairment charges and $5.0 million related to the North American and European restructuring. The Company reduced its North American workforce by approximately 550 people, or 12%; its European workforce by approximately 150 people, or 2%; and its Asian workforce by approximately 60 people, or 3%. Included in the asset impairment charges was a $22.3 million charge related to one of the Company's European locations, which resulted from the Company's evaluations of the long range outlook of the location using an undiscounted and discounted cash flow model, both of which indicated that assets were impaired. In determining the amount of the asset impairment charge, the Company used a replacement cost technique to determine the fair value of the assets.
