Item 2.05     Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

On July 23, 2012, Rogers Corporation (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K under Item 2.05 (the “Original Filing”), disclosing its commitment, in connection with its continuing efforts to be more responsive to customers, to a plan to move the final inspection operations of its indirect wholly owned subsidiary Curamik Electronics GmbH (“Curamik”) from Curamik’s manufacturing site in Eschenbach, Germany to Hungary.  At the time of the Original Filing, the Company was not able to reasonably estimate the expenses and charges related to the move.  The Original Filing is hereby amended to provide that information.

The expenses and charges related to moving final inspection operations to Hungary are estimated to be approximately $4.8 million, comprised primarily of $3.8 million of severance charges related to the separation from employment of approximately 67 employees at the Eschenbach facility, as well as approximately $1.0 million of start-up costs associated with the move.  The Company expects to recognize approximately $4.0 million of these charges in the fourth quarter of 2012 with the remaining charges recognized as incurred during 2013.  The Company expects that the payback period on this investment will be approximately 2.5 years based on current depressed demand levels.
