    associated with the Company's foreign deferred tax assets. During
    the three months ended July 1, 2005, this charge represents a
    non-cash tax charge related to the utilization of pre-merger
    deferred tax assets. During the nine months ended July 1, 2005,
    these charges primarily represent non-cash charges related to the
    utilization of pre-merger deferred tax assets and a reduction in
    the expected benefit of foreign deferred tax assets resulting from
    a change in regulated foreign tax rates.

The above pro forma non-GAAP measures are based upon our unaudited
consolidated statements of operations for the periods shown. These
non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance the user's overall
understanding of our current financial performance and our prospects
for the future. Specifically, we believe the non-GAAP financial
measures provide useful information to both management and investors
by excluding certain charges and non-recurring items that we believe
are not indicative of our ongoing operations and economic performance.
Additionally, since we have historically reported non- GAAP results to
the investment community, the inclusion of non-GAAP financial measures
provides consistency in our financial reporting. Further, these
non-GAAP financial measures are one of the primary indicators
management uses for planning and forecasting in future periods. The
presentation of this additional information should not be considered
in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
