Refranchisings and franchisee development — The following table summarizes the number of restaurants sold to franchisees, the number of restaurants developed by franchisees, and gains recognized in each fiscal year (dollars in thousands):
(1) Amounts in 2019, 2018, and 2017 include additional proceeds of $1.3 million, $1.4 million, and $0.2 million related to the extension of the underlying franchise and lease agreements from the sale of restaurants in prior years.
(2)  Charges are for operating restaurant leases with lease commitments in excess of our sublease rental income.
(3) Amounts in 2018 primarily represent $9.2 million of costs related to franchise remodel incentives, $8.7 million reduction of gains related to the modification of certain 2017 refranchising transactions, $2.3 million of maintenance and repair expenses and $3.7 million of other miscellaneous non-capital charges. Amounts in 2017 represent impairment of $4.6 million and equipment write-offs of $1.4 million related to restaurants closed in connection with the sale of the related markets, maintenance and repair charges, and other miscellaneous non-capital charges.
Franchise acquisitions — In 2019 and 2018 we did not acquire any franchise restaurants. In 2017 we acquired 50 franchise restaurants. Of the 50 restaurants acquired, we took over 31 restaurants as a result of an agreement with an underperforming franchisee who was in violation of franchise and lease agreements with the Company. Under this agreement, the franchisee voluntarily agreed to turn over the restaurants. The acquisition of the additional 19 restaurants in 2017 was the result of a legal action filed in September 2013 against a franchisee, from which legal action we obtained a judgment in January 2017 granting us possession of the restaurants. Of the 50 restaurants acquired in 2017, we closed eight and sold 42 to franchisees.

Dividends
The following table shows our total cash dividends paid in the years ended December 31:
On February 13, 2020, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.16 per common share payable on March 20, 2020 to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 6, 2020. The estimated amount of this dividend payment is $24.8 million based on 154.7 million shares of our common stock issued and outstanding as of February 21, 2020.
The dividend payments discussed above are recorded as reductions to cash and cash equivalents and retained earnings on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our credit facility and our senior notes contain covenants that restrict our ability to declare or pay dividends and repurchase stock. However, we do not believe these covenants are likely to materially limit the future payment of quarterly cash dividends on our common stock. From time to time, we may consider other means of returning value to our stockholders based on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations. There is no guarantee that our Board of Directors will declare any further dividends.
