[1] | Employee termination benefits include severance expense of $20,727 and $10,119 related to HomEq Servicing and Litton, respectively. The remaining liability for employee termination benefits related to the HomEq Acquisition was settled in 2011. We paid the liability for employee termination benefits related to the Litton Acquisition during 2012.
[2] | All charges were recorded in the Servicing segment. Charges related to employee termination benefits and lease termination costs are reported in Compensation and benefits expense and Occupancy and equipment expense, respectively, in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The liabilities are included in Other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
[3] | The lease agreements that we assumed for the HomEq facilities expire in 2017 and 2018. In December 2010, we exercised our option to terminate the HomEq lease agreements effective in 2013 and provided formal notice to the lessors. At that time, we recorded a charge of $7,794 to establish a reserve for the remaining lease payments discounted through the early termination date, including early termination penalties due in 2013. The balance at December 31, 2011 represented the remainder of the liability for the HomEq lease payments. In March 2012, we ceased using the Litton Georgia facility and recorded a charge of $4,779 to establish a liability for the remaining lease payments discounted through the lease expiration date in 2017. This lease does not contain an option for early termination, and we are actively attempting to sublease the space. In June 2012, we negotiated a buyout of the lease on the HomEq California facility for $2,900 which resulted in an additional expense of $251 as the payment exceeded the liability, net of unamortized discount.
