These restructuring efforts were substantially completed by the end of 2009; however, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company incurred and recorded in its Fabricated Products segment $0.4 and $0.9, respectively, of restructuring benefit. Restructuring benefit for both the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $0.3.

Accrued restructuring liabilities at December 31, 2010 was $0.4, which were related to estimated employee-termination and other personnel costs. There were no remaining accrued restructuring liabilities at September 30, 2011.
