On November 5, 2012, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a restructuring plan in relation to its relocation of its headquarters to Reno, Nevada (the "Restructuring Plan"). The Company expects to incur approximately $1.5 million in restructuring and related charges associated with the Restructuring Plan during the six months ending December 31, 2012. Included in the restructuring and other charges are (i) approximately $0.5 million related to employee severance arrangements for employees impacted by the Restructuring Plan, (ii) approximately $0.8 million related to the exit of the Company's former corporate headquarters and (iii) approximately $0.2 million in accelerated depreciation of tenant improvements and other abandoned assets at that site.
The Company expects to complete the activities related to the Restructuring Plan by December 31, 2012. The associated charges are expected to be recorded in the Company's first and second quarter results for fiscal year 2013, with $0.3 million incurred in the fiscal first quarter.
The estimated pre-tax restructuring and related charges of approximately $0.5 million represent the Company's estimate of future cash outlays for employee termination benefits. The estimated charge of $0.8 million related to the facility exit will be paid through June of 2013 when the lease expires. The $0.3 million of accelerated depreciation represents a non-cash charge.
