Net income from discontinued operations in the first half of 2009 primarily consists of a $202.5 million gain related to the sale of Ibis to AMI less $30.7 million of income taxes.
Total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 was $31.0 million and $62.6 million, respectively, compared to $29.7 million and $48.1 million for the same periods in 2008. This increase in revenue is primarily due to an increase in revenue from our collaboration with Genzyme. As part of our strategic relationship with Genzyme, in the first quarter of 2008 Genzyme purchased $150 million of our common stock at $30 per share and in the second quarter paid us a license fee of $175 million. We are amortizing the premium on the stock, $100 million calculated using a Black-Scholes option valuation model, and the license fee ratably into revenue through June 2012, which represents the end of our performance obligation based on the research and development plan included in the agreement. Revenue from Genzyme was higher in 2009 because the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 only included one month of amortization of the $175 million license fee.

Highlight of Business Operations:
Ibis Biosciences, Inc. In January 2009, we sold our Ibis Biosciences subsidiary to AMI for a total purchase price of $215 million. In 2008, AMI invested $40 million in Ibis, which provided the capital for Ibis to make significant progress in expanding commercial product offerings and building the foundation for Ibis to enter regulated markets, such as clinical diagnostics. When AMI completed the acquisition of Ibis, we received an additional $175 million. We are also eligible to receive an earn out on future sales of Ibis products that will enable us and our shareholders to continue to benefit from Ibis successes. The earn out payments from AMI are equal to a percentage of Ibis revenue related to sales of Ibis systems, including instruments, assay kits and successor products, through the end of 2025. The earn out payments will be 5% of net sales over $140 million through net sales of $2.1 billion and 3% of net sales over $2.1 billion, with the percentages subject to reduction in certain circumstances.As a result of selling Ibis to AMI, Ibis financial results are considered discontinued operations.
