Note 8.  Plan of Restructuring
 
During the first quarter of 2010, we completed a restructuring in order to reduce operating expenses.  This restructuring included headcount reductions of 184 positions, as well as the closing of a number of smaller locations.

For the six months ended June 26, 2010, we recorded restructuring costs of approximately $12.3 million (approximately $8.3 million after taxes) consisting of employee severance pay and benefits, facility closing costs, representing primarily lease termination and asset write-off costs, and outside professional and consulting fees directly related to the restructuring plan.

The costs associated with these restructurings are included in a separate line item, "Restructuring costs" within our consolidated statements of income.

The following table shows the amounts expensed and paid for restructuring costs that were incurred during our 2010 fiscal year and the remaining accrued balance of restructuring costs as of June 25, 2011, which is included in Accrued expenses: Other and Other liabilities within our consolidated balance sheet:
