This excerpt taken from the ELN 6-K filed Mar 30, 2009. Severance,
restructuring and other costs
During 2008, we incurred severance, restructuring and other
costs of $22.1 million related primarily to the realignment
of our commercial activities in Tysabri for CD and the
announced closure of our offices in New York and Tokyo, which
occurred in March 2009.
During 2007, we incurred severance, restructuring and other
costs of $32.4 million arising principally from the
restructuring of our commercial infrastructure and consolidation
of our U.S. West Coast locations, which resulted in the
closure of the San Diego facility and the expansion of our
operations in South San Francisco. The restructuring of our
commercial infrastructure was primarily a result of the approval
of a generic form of Maxipime and the anticipated
approval of a generic form of Azactam.

During 2006, the net severance, restructuring and other costs of
$7.5 million were related to the realignment of our
resources to meet our business structure at that time. The
restructuring and severance charges in 2006 were primarily
related to the consolidation of our Biopharmaceuticals R&D
activities into our South San Francisco facility. These
charges arose from termination of certain operating leases,
reduction of headcount and relocation of employees, and they
also included the reversal of a $9.4 million charge for
future lease payments on an unutilized facility in South
San Francisco. As a part of the restructuring of our
Biopharmaceuticals R&D activities, this facility was
brought back into use.
