Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

On December 29, 2009, Furmanite Corporation (the "Company") committed to a cost reduction initiative, including planned workforce reductions and consolidation of certain functions. The Company has taken these specific actions in order to more favorably align its selling and general and administrative costs with its current level of operations. The Company expects to complete these cost reduction actions during the first quarter of 2010.

At this time, the Company cannot estimate the total amount or range of amounts expected to be incurred in connection with the initiative or the amount of charges that will result in future cash expenditures, which will be primarily severance costs. Additionally, at this time, the Company cannot estimate the amount of charges associated with each major category of charges related to this initiative. The Company will disclose this information in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission promptly and in any event within four business days of such determination.

On January 4, 2010, the Company issued a press release announcing these cost reduction actions. A copy of this press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
