Two of these pushouts were software contracts with a face value of $1 million each, one of which we expect to recognize in the first quarter of fiscal 2001, while the other will be recognized over the next 24 months net of any potential discounts. The third was a project that is valued at $3.2 million which commenced during the fiscal year, but after completing only $1 million of the project, the remainder was postponed by the client from the fourth quarter 2000 to the fourth quarter 2001.
