Restructuring Charges Restructuring Charges
In the fourth quarter of 2019, in an effort to reduce the significant operating losses at our AeroSat business, we initiated a restructuring plan to reduce costs and minimize losses of our AeroSat antenna business. The plan narrows the initiatives for the AeroSat business to focus primarily on near-term opportunities pertaining to business jet connectivity. The plan has a downsized manufacturing operation remaining in New Hampshire, with significantly reduced personnel and operating expenses. Impairments and restructuring charges were recorded in 2019 as a result of the restructuring plan.
The Company incurred $0.3 million in additional restructuring charges associated with severance during the three months ended March 28, 2020.
The following table reconciles the beginning and ending liability for restructuring charges relating to the Company’s restructuring plan described above:

The charge to Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities is comprised of employee termination benefits expected to be paid in 2020 as well as the current portions of payments to be made under non-cancelable inventory purchase commitments. The charge to Other Liabilities represents the non-current portions of payments to be made under non-cancelable inventory purchase commitments. The non-cancelable purchase commitments are for inventory in the future which is not expected to be purchased prior to the expiration date of such agreements as a result of the restructuring plan.
