Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]

In connection with the Company's acquisition of Entropic, the Company entered into a restructuring plan to address matters primarily relating to the integration of the Company and Entropic businesses. In connection with this plan, the Company terminated the employment of 73 Entropic employees during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The Company recognized associated non-recurring employee separation charges of approximately $5.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2015 related to these terminations. Included in these employee separation charges is $1.5 million of stock compensation for accelerated stock options and RSUs vesting due to double trigger change of control agreements and other special agreements in effect with certain Entropic employees.

Additionally, in connection with the restructuring plan, the Company ceased use of the majority of Entropic's former headquarters. Accordingly, the Company recognized lease impairment charges of $1.1 million based on the adjustment to the net present value of the remaining lease obligation on the cease use date. The Company also recorded impairment charges of $3.7 million related to leasehold improvements on the unused premises.

The following table presents the activity related to the plan, which is included in restructuring charges in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations:
