Included in restructuring charges for the 2017 periods is $4.4 million of incremental stock-based compensation from the acceleration of certain stock-based awards we assumed from Exar due to change in control provisions upon termination of former Exar executives, other severance-related charges of $1.6 million and lease restructuring charges of $0.6 million related to exiting certain Exar facilities. The lease impairment charges in the 2016 periods include adjustments to the estimates of net present value of the remaining lease obligation for actual sublease income and period costs associated with certain vacated facilities, including commissions to brokers involved in subleasing property. Total sublease income related to leased facilities the Company ceased using was approximately $0.5 million and $1.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. Sublease income was approximately $0.4 million and $0.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively.
The following table presents a roll-forward of the Company's restructuring liability for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The restructuring liability is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.
