ITEM 2.05 COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH EXIT OR DISPOSAL ACTIVITIES.

On December 8, 2020, Qumu Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release relating to its transition to permanent remote work for all of its personnel as part of its “Work from Wherever Forever” policy effective December 8, 2020. The Company will be closing three of its four offices due to its new remote work policy. As a result, the Company expects to record a non-cash charge of approximately $0.7 million to $0.9 million, which will be incurred in the fourth quarter of 2020, as described below. The press release is furnished hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

As part of the policy, the Company’s management determined that, effective no later than December 31, 2020, the Company will no longer occupy the leased office space at the Company’s headquarters location in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and London, England, which were primarily used for engineering, service, sales, marketing and administration, and the leased office space in Hyderabad, India, which was primarily used for software development and testing. The Company will continue to occupy its leased space in Burlingame, California, primarily for technology storage and research and development. Given the transition to permanent remote work, the Company will record in the fourth quarter of 2020 a non-cash charge of approximately $0.5 million to $0.6 million related to the right-of-use assets for the Company’s three leases. Additionally, the Company will incur non-cash charges of $0.2 million to $0.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 related to the abandonment of certain leasehold improvements, office and computer equipment, and furniture at the leased premises. The Company also will incur expenses associated with flexible shared workspace arrangements and the work-at home-stipend contemplated by the policy. Based upon its estimates for 2021, the Company expects these expenses to be approximately $0.3 million on an annualized basis.

The Company will surrender its three offices leases in the fourth quarter 2020 and intends to negotiate with landlords relating to the leases. The Company intends to continue to pay all rental payments due and payable by the Company pursuant to the leases governing the leased premises. Lease surrender costs, depending on the amounts involved and timing of their finalization, will impact the Company's cash flow results. The actual amount and timing are dependent on the outcome of negotiations with landlords.
