As previously disclosed, the results of operations for the fiscal quarter and nine fiscal months ended September 27, 2008 have been recast to include the retrospective effects of FSP APB 14-1 (ASC Topic 470-20).

We incurred restructuring and severance costs of $28.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2008, and incurred additional restructuring and severance costs of $34.5 million during the first nine months of 2009. These costs were incurred as part of our program to reduce manufacturing and SG&A fixed costs in 2009 by $200 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2008. Our cost reduction programs are ahead of schedule. Our fixed costs in the third quarter of 2009 decreased by $49 million compared to the third quarter of 2008, and our fixed costs for the nine fiscal months ended September 26, 2009 decreased by $173 million versus the comparable prior year period. Of these amounts, approximately 47% reduced costs of products sold and approximately 53% reduced SG&A expenses.
