RESTRUCTURING AND ACQUISITION CHARGES
For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, we recognized Restructuring and acquisition charges of $0.7 million and $4.5 million, respectively, which included $1.2 million and $2.8 million, respectively, of net decreases to earn-out liabilities that arose from prior-period acquisition activity.
In all periods, the remaining charges primarily consist of (1) severance and employment-related charges, including those related to external service providers, incurred in conjunction with a structural business shift, which can be represented by a notable change in headcount, change in leadership, or transformation of business processes, (2) lease exit charges, and (3) other acquisition and integration-related charges. The following tables show the restructuring and acquisition accrual activity and related payments, which are exclusive of the adjustments individually noted above.

We expect the majority of accrued severance and other accrued acquisition costs as of March 31, 2018 will be paid during the next twelve months. Lease exit payments depend on the terms of various leases, which extend as far out as 2022.
