During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we recorded special charges totaling $9.4 million, of which $0.6 million was non-cash. The charges consisted of $7.9 million related to the termination of the Company’s corporate airplane lease and $1.5 million related to the closure of the Company’s West Palm Beach executive office and related lease termination.

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we recorded adjustments to the special charges for office spaces vacated prior to the end of the second quarter of 2012 of approximately $0.4 million. These charges reflected the changes to sublease terms and associated costs for those locations for which subleases were entered into during the three months ended March 31, 2013.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, we recorded special charges totaling $38.4 million, of which $14.1 million was non-cash. The charges reflect contractual post-employment severance and transition services, equity award and retention bonus expense acceleration primarily related to the transition of the Company’s former Executive Chairman and former President and Chief Executive Officer. Special charges also included accelerated expenses related to future payments required to be made under a contractual transition service agreement with a Corporate Finance/Restructuring segment senior client facing professional. We also incurred costs related to actions we took to realign our workforce to address current business demands impacting our Corporate Finance/Restructuring and Forensic and Litigation Consulting segments, and to reduce certain corporate overhead within our Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) region, most of which were recorded in the third and fourth quarters of 2013.

The total cash outflow associated with the special charges recorded in 2014, 2013 and 2012 is expected to be $57.3 million, of which $34.5 million has been paid as of June 30, 2014.
