RESTRUCTURING
We have initiated various restructuring activities in our business during the past two years. The restructuring activities focus on various aspects of our operations, including closing certain facilities, rationalizing headcount, and aligning operations in the most strategic and cost efficient manner.
           For both the three months ended March 27, 2015 and March 29, 2014, there was no expense related to severance and related benefit costs.
The Company expects substantially all remaining severance payments to be paid out by the third quarter of 2015 pursuant to agreements entered into with affected employees and we do not expect to incur significant additional charges related to these actions in future periods.
The severance and related benefit costs and their utilization for the three months ended March 27, 2015 are summarized in the table below:
