Note 1: Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by PerkinElmer, Inc. (the “Company”), without audit, in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (the “U.S.”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information in the footnote disclosures of these financial statements has been condensed or omitted where it substantially duplicates information provided in the Company’s latest audited financial statements in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2007, filed with the SEC (the “2007 Form 10-K”). The balance sheet amounts at December 30, 2007 in this report were derived from the Company’s audited 2007 financial statements included in the 2007 Form 10-K. The financial statements reflect all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The results of operations for the sixnine months ended June 29,September 28, 2008 and July 1,September 30, 2007, respectively, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year or any future period.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157,“Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”), which clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability, establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions, and expands the related disclosure requirements. Under the standard, fair value measurements are to be separately disclosed by level within the fair value hierarchy. SFAS No. 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value based upon an exit price model. The FASB also issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. 157-2 in February 2008 (“FSP No. 157-2”). FSP No. 157-2 delays the effective date of the application of SFAS No. 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. The Company adopted SFAS No. 157 as of December 31, 2007, with the exception of the application of the statement to non-recurring nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities. See Note 17, below, for additional details.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159,“The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 provides entities with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value, with the objective to reduce both the complexity in accounting for financial instruments, and the volatility in earnings caused by measuring related financial assets and liabilities differently. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option is elected would be reported in earnings. The Company adopted SFAS No. 159 as of December 31, 2007, and to date has not elected not to measure any additional financial instruments and other items at fair value. Therefore, material financial assets and liabilities not carried at fair value, such as the Company’s short-term and long-term debt obligations and trade accounts receivable and accounts payable, are still reported at their carrying values. Any future transacted financial asset or liability will be evaluated for the fair value election as prescribed by SFAS No. 159.

In March 2007, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 06-10,“Accounting for Collateral Assignment Split-Dollar Life Insurance Agreements”Arrangements” (“EITF No. 06-10”). EITF No. 06-10 provides guidance for determining a liability for the post-retirement benefit obligation as well as recognition and measurement of the associated asset on the basis of the terms of the collateral assignment agreement. The Company adopted EITF No. 06-10 as of December 31, 2007 and the adoption did not have an impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2007, the FASB ratified EITF Issue No. 07-3,“Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services Received for Use in Future Research and Development Activities” (“EITF No. 07-3”). EITF No. 07-3 requires that nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities be deferred, capitalized and recognized as an expense as the goods are delivered or the related services are performed. The Company adopted EITF No. 07-3, on a prospective basis, as of December 31, 2007 and the adoption did not have an impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162,“The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“SFAS No. 162”). SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in accordance with GAAP. With the issuance of this statement, the FASB concluded that the GAAP hierarchy should be directed toward the entity and not its auditor, and reside in the accounting literature established by the FASB as opposed to the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) Statement on Auditing Standards No. 69,“The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” SFAS No. 162 is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411,“The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” The Company has evaluated the requirements of SFAS No. 162 and has determined that it will not have a significant impact on its determination or reporting of financial results.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007),“Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141(R)”). SFAS No. 141(R) establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements significant aspects of a business combination. Under SFAS No. 141(R), acquisition costs will generally be expensed as incurred; noncontrolling interests will be valued at fair value at the acquisition date; in-process research and development will be recorded at fair value as an indefinite-lived intangible asset at the acquisition date; restructuring costs associated with a business combination will generally be expensed subsequent to the acquisition date; and changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and income tax uncertainties after the acquisition date generally will affect income tax expense. SFAS No. 141(R) amends SFAS No. 109,“Accounting for Income Taxes,” such that adjustments made to valuation allowances on deferred taxes and acquired tax contingencies associated with acquisitions that closed prior to the effective date of SFAS No. 141(R) would also apply the provisions of SFAS No. 141(R). SFAS No. 141(R) also establishes disclosure requirements to enable the evaluation of the nature and financial effects of the business combination. Early adoption is not permitted. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective on a prospective basis for all business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual period subsequent to December 15, 2008, with the exception of the accounting for valuation allowances on deferred taxes and acquired tax contingencies. The Company will be required to adopt SFAS No. 141(R) in the first quarter of fiscal year 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS No. 141(R) and has not yet determined the impact of its adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160,“Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51” (“SFAS No. 160”). SFAS No. 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest,

changes in a parent’s ownership interest, and the valuation of retained noncontrolling equity investments when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. SFAS No. 160 also establishes disclosure requirements that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. The Company will be required to adopt SFAS No. 160 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS No. 160 and has not yet determined the impact, if any, of its adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161,“Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”(“SFAS No. 161”). SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve transparency in financial reporting by requiring enhanced disclosures of an entity’s derivative instruments and hedging activities and their effects on the entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 applies to all derivative instruments within the scope of SFAS No. 133,“Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as well as related hedged items, bifurcated derivatives, and nonderivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments. SFAS No. 161 establishes principles and requirements for how an entity identifies derivative instruments and related hedged items that affect its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 also establishes disclosure requirements that the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses are disclosed in a tabular format, that derivative features which are credit-risk related be disclosed to provide clarification to an entity’s liquidity and cross-referencing within footnotes. The Company will be required to adopt SFAS No. 161 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS No. 161 and has not yet determined the impact of its adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. 142-3,“Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets”(“FSP No. 142-3”). FSP No. 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142,“Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS No. 142”). The objective of FSP No. 142-3 is to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142 and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under SFAS No. 141(R), and other accounting principles. FSP No. 142-3 applies to all intangible assets, whether acquired in a business combination or otherwise, and early adoption is prohibited. The Company will be required to adopt FSP No. 142-3 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of FSP No. 142-3 and has not yet determined the impact of its adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 2: Acquisitions

Acquisition of VaConics Lighting, Inc. In May 2008, the Company acquired specified assets and assumed specified liabilities of VaConics Lighting, Inc. (“VaConics”), a leading provider of custom and standard ceramic Xenon arc lamps. This acquisition is expected to expand the Company’s Xenon lighting technology by increasing the Company’s offerings of lamp operations that include mobile phone cameras, medical endoscopes, surgical headlamps, forensic analyses, video projectors, searchlights, and infrared lighting. Consideration for this transaction was approximately $3.9 million in cash. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2008, the Company paid VaConics approximately $0.1 million for net working capital adjustments. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the acquired net assets has been allocated to goodwill, all of which is tax deductible. The operations for this acquisition are reported within the results of the Company’s Optoelectronics segment from the acquisition date.

Acquisition of LabMetrix Technologies S.A. In March 2008, the Company acquired all of the stock of LabMetrix Technologies S.A. (“LabMetrix”) and acquired specified assets and assumed specified liabilities of LabmetrixLabMetrix Technologies Ltd. and LabMetrix Technologies, Inc., a provider of metrology-based multi-vendor analytical instrument qualification solutions. This acquisition is expected to add technology, tools, processes and compliance expertise to the Company’s suite of OneSource^® laboratory services by strengthening its support of customers in a wide range of industries including the pharmaceutical, medical device, food, toy and other

consumer goods industries. Consideration for this transaction was approximately $4.3 million in cash plus potential additional contingent consideration. The Company determined that $1.9 million of the contingent consideration was probable and recorded the accrual at the date of acquisition. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2008, the Company received approximately $0.1 million from the former shareholders of LabMetrix for net working capital adjustments. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the acquired net assets has been allocated to goodwill. None of the goodwill related to the LabMetrix acquisition is tax deductible and all of the goodwill related to the LabMetrix Technologies Ltd. and LabMetrix Technologies, Inc. acquisitions is tax deductible. The operations for this acquisition are reported within the results of the Company’s Life and Analytical Sciences segment from the acquisition date.

Acquisition of Newborn Metabolic Screening Business from Pediatrix Medical Group, Inc. In February 2008, the Company acquired the outstanding stock of Pediatrix Screening, Inc., which constituted the newborn metabolic screening business of Pediatrix Medical Group, Inc., and is now known as PerkinElmer Genetics, Inc. (“PKI Genetics”). PKI Genetics provides neonatal screening and consultative services to hospitals, medical groups and various states. This acquisition is expected to expand the Company’s capabilities to supply state laboratories and other agencies with comprehensive newborn screening solutions. Consideration for this transaction was approximately $66.3 million in cash. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2008, the Company received approximately $0.3 million from Pediatrix Medical Group, Inc. for net working capital adjustments. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the acquired net assets has been allocated to goodwill, which may be tax deductible if elected by the Company. The operations for this acquisition are reported within the results of the Company’s Life and Analytical Sciences segment from the acquisition date.

Acquisition of ViaCell, Inc. In November 2007, the Company completed a tender offer for all of the outstanding shares of common stock of ViaCell, Inc. (“ViaCell”), at a price of $7.25 per share. ViaCell specializes in the collection, testing, processing and preservation of umbilical cord blood stem cells. The addition of ViaCell’s ViaCord^® product offering for the preservation of umbilical cord blood, and its sales and marketing organization, is expected to facilitatehas facilitated the expansion of the Company’s neonatal and prenatal businesses. Aggregate consideration for this transaction was approximately $295.8 million in cash, which excludes $31.8 million in acquired cash. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the acquired net assets has been allocated to goodwill, none of which is tax deductible. The operations for this acquisition are reported within the results of the Company’s Life and Analytical Sciences segment from the acquisition date.

Following the ViaCell acquisition, the Company committed to a preliminary plan of integration of certain ViaCell activities that included workforce reductions and the partial closure of an excess facility. AsThrough the second quarter of June 29,fiscal year 2008, the Company recorded a $2.4 million liability for severance and the partial closure of an excess facility with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill in accordance with EITF Issue No. 95-3,“Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a Purchase Business Combination” (“EITF No. 95-3”). The Company finalized the integration plan and all actions related to this plan as of June 29, 2008.

Following the ViaCell acquisition, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved a plan to sell the ViaCyte^SM and Cellular Therapy Technology businesses that were acquired with ViaCell. The ViaCyte^SM business focusesfocused on the development of a proprietary media intended for the cryopreservation of human unfertilized oocytes. The Cellular Therapy Technology business focusesfocused on the development and sale of unrestricted somatic stem cell products thatwhich are derived from umbilical cord blood. The Company determined that both businesses do not strategically fit with the other products offered by the Life and Analytical Sciences segment. The Company also determined that without investing capital into the operations of both businesses, the Company could not effectively compete in the marketplace with larger companies whichthat focus on the market for such products. After careful consideration, the Company decided in the second quarter of fiscal year 2008 to close the ViaCyte^SM and Cellular Therapy Technology businesses, recording a pre-tax loss of $8.5$8.3 million for severance and facility closure costs. The Company has classified the results and closure of the ViaCyte^SM and Cellular Therapy Technology businesses as discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements. See Note 11, below, for additional details.

The acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Allocation of the purchase price for the acquisitions was based on estimates of the fair value of the net assets acquired, and is subject to

adjustment upon finalization of the purchase price allocation. The fair values assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on management’s estimates and assumptions, as well as other information compiled by management, including valuations that utilize customary valuation procedures and techniques. The excess purchase price over those assigned values was recorded as goodwill. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, goodwill will beis reviewed at least annually for impairment. Purchased intangibles with finite lives will be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives. See Note 13, below, for additional details.

In connection with the purchase price and related allocations, the Company estimates the fair value of deferred revenue assumed in connection with these acquisitions. The estimated fair value of deferred revenue is determined by the legal performance obligation at the date of acquisition, and is generally based on the nature of the activities to be performed and the related costs to be incurred after consummation. The fair value of an assumed liability related to deferred revenue is estimated based on the current market cost of fulfilling the obligation, plus a normal profit margin thereon. The estimated costs to fulfill the deferred revenue are based on the historical direct costs related to providing the services. The Company does not include any costs associated with selling efforts, research and development, or the related fulfillment margins on these costs. In most acquisitions, profit associated with selling efforts is excluded because the acquired entities would have concluded the selling effort on the support contracts prior to the acquisition date. The estimated research and development costs are not included in the fair value determination, as these costs are not deemed to represent a legal obligation at the time of acquisition. The sum of the costs and operating income approximates, in theory, the amount that the Company would be required to pay a third partythird-party to assume the obligation. As a result of purchase accounting, the Company recognized the deferred revenue related to the ViaCell acquisition at fair value, and did not recognize $18.1 million of deferred revenue that would have been otherwise recognized in future periods.

As of June 29,September 28, 2008, the purchase price and related allocations for the ViaCell, PKI Genetics, LabMetrix and VaConics acquisitions were preliminary, and may be revised as a result of adjustments made to the purchase price, as well as additional information regarding assets and liabilities assumed, including contingent liabilities, deferred taxes, and revisions of preliminary estimates of fair values made at the date of purchase. The Company is not aware of any information that indicates the final purchase price allocation will differ materially from the preliminary estimates, and the Company expects to complete any outstanding asset valuations no later than one year from the date of acquisition.

TheAs of September 28, 2008, the components of the preliminary purchase price and allocation for the acquisitions completed during the first two quarters ofin fiscal year 2008 arewere as follows:

Note 3: Restructuring and Lease Charges (Reversals) Charges,, net

The Company has undertaken a series of restructuring actions related to the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and the integration of its business units. Restructuring actions were recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 146,“Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.”

A description of the restructuring plans and the activity recorded for the sixnine months ended June 29,September 28, 2008 areis listed below. Details of these plans, particularly those listed under “Previous“Previous Restructuring and Integration Plans,” are discussed more fully in Note 3 to the financial statements in the 2007 Form 10-K.

The purpose of the restructuring plans approved in the third quarter of fiscal year 2008 and fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007, detailed below, was principally to shift resources into geographic regions and product lines that are more consistent with the Company’s growth strategy. The pre-tax restructuring activityactivities associated with these plans hashave been reported as restructuring expenses as a component of operating expenses from continuing operations. The Company expects the impact of immediate and future cost savings from these restructuring activities on operating results and cash flows to be negligible, as the Company has incurred and will incur offsetting costs.

Q3 2008 Plan

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2008, the Company’s management approved a plan to shift resources into product lines that are more consistent with the Company’s growth strategy (the “Q3 2008 Plan”). As a result of the Q3 2008 Plan, the Company recognized a $7.5 million pre-tax restructuring charge in the Life and Analytical Sciences segment related to a workforce reduction from reorganization activities and the closure of excess facilities. The Company also recognized a $0.3 million pre-tax restructuring charge in the Optoelectronics segment related to a workforce reduction from reorganization activities. All actions related to the Q3 2008 Plan were completed by September 28, 2008.

The following table summarizes the Q3 2008 Plan activity for the nine months ended September 28, 2008:

The Company anticipates that the remaining payments of $5.4 million for workforce reductions will be completed by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010, and the remaining payments of $1.3 million for the closure of the excess facilities will be paid through fiscal year 2011, in accordance with the terms of the applicable leases.

Q4 2007 Plan

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company’s management approved a plan to shift resources into geographic regions and product lines that are more consistent with the Company’s growth strategy (the “Q4 2007 Plan”). As a result of the Q4 2007 Plan, the Company recognized a $4.8 million pre-tax restructuring charge in the Life and Analytical Sciences segment related to a workforce reduction from reorganization activities. The Company also recognized a $4.8 million pre-tax restructuring charge in the Optoelectronics segment related to a workforce reduction and the partial closure of a facility, which was offset by the recognition of a $2.2 million deferred gain from the sale-leaseback of that facility during the fiscal year 2001. All actions related to the Q4 2007 Plan were completed by December 30, 2007.

The following table summarizes the Q4 2007 Plan activity for the sixnine months ended June 29,September 28, 2008:

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2008, the Company recorded a reversal of $0.3 million primarily due to lower than expected employee separation costs associated with the Company’s Life and Analytical Sciences segment. The Company also recorded an additional charge of $0.7 million due to higher than expected costs associated with the partial closure of a facility within the Company’s Optoelectronics segment. The Company anticipates that the remaining payments of $1.2$0.7 million for workforce reductions will be completed by the end of the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, and the remaining payments of $4.0$4.1 million for the partial closure of the excess facility will be paid through fiscal year 2022, in accordance with the terms of the applicable lease.

ViaCell Plan

Following the ViaCell acquisition, the Company committed to a preliminary plan of integration of certain ViaCell activities that included workforce reductions and the partial closure of an excess facility (the “ViaCell Plan”). AsThrough the second quarter of June 29,fiscal year 2008, the Company recorded a $2.4 million liability for severance and the partial closure of an excess facility with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill in accordance with EITF No. 95-3. The Company finalized the integration plan and all actions related to this plan as of June 29, 2008.

The following table summarizes the ViaCell Plan activity for the sixnine months ended June 29,September 28, 2008:

The Company anticipates that the remaining payments of approximately $0.7$0.4 million for workforce reductions will be completed by the end of the thirdsecond quarter of fiscal year 2009, and the remaining payments of $0.7$0.5 million for the partial closure of the excess facility will be paid through fiscal year 2014, in accordance with the terms of the applicable lease.

Previous Restructuring and Integration Plans

The principal actions of thesethe restructuring and integration plans from the fiscal years 2001 through the first quarter of fiscal year 2007 were workforce reductions related to the integration of the Company’s Life Sciences and Analytical Instruments businesses, which is now the Company’s Life and Analytical Sciences segment, in order to reduce costs and achieve operational efficiencies as well as workforce reductions in both the Life and Analytical Sciences and Optoelectronics segments by shifting resources into geographic regions and product lines that are more consistent with the Company’s growth strategy. During the sixnine months ended June 29,September 28, 2008, the Company paid $0.5$0.7 million related to these plans. During the secondthird quarter of fiscal year 2008, the Company recorded an additional chargea reversal of $0.1$1.0 million related to higherlower than expected costs associated with severance of oneseveral of these plans. As of June 29,September 28, 2008, the Company had approximately $2.6$1.3 million of remaining liabilities associated with restructuring and integration plans from the fiscal years 2001 through the first quarter of fiscal year 2007, primarily relating to remaining lease obligations related to those closed facilities in the Life and Analytical Sciences segment. The remaining terms of these leases vary in length and will be paid through fiscal year 2011. The Company anticipates that the remaining severance payments will be completed by the end of fiscal year 2008.2009.

Lease Charges

To facilitate the sale of a business in fiscal year 2001, the Company was required to guarantee the obligations that the buyer of the business assumed related to the lease for the building in which the business operates. The lease obligations continue through March 2011. While the Company assigned its interest in the lease to the buyer at the time of the sale of the business, in the event the buyer defaults under the lease, the Company is responsible for all remaining lease payments and certain other building related expenses. As an additional measure to facilitate the sale of the business, the Company obtained a letter of credit as partial security for a loan to the buyer, which could have been drawn upon by the buyer’s lender in the event the buyer was delinquent in repayment of the loan. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2007, the lessor of the building began the process to evict the buyer as a result of unpaid lease payments and building expenses and sought reimbursement from the Company. As a result of this action, the Company recorded a charge of $4.5 million related to payments for this lease obligation and the potential drawdown of the letter of credit. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2007, the buyer completed a recapitalization of the business with another lender. The proceeds of the recapitalization were used to pay off the remaining balance on the original securitized loan, as well as to make certain payments to the landlord for back rent and other obligations arising under the lease. The Company was also released from its obligation under the letter of credit on the original securitized loan. As a result of these actions, the Company recorded a reversal of $1.4 million related to payments for this lease obligation and the release of the letter of credit in the third quarter of fiscal year 2007. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2008, the buyer paid all delinquent lease payments and building expenses and as a result, the

Company recorded an additional reversal of $0.4 million. TheAs of September 28, 2008, the Company iswas still responsible for the remaining accrual of $2.7 million, which relates to the remaining lease and building obligations through March 2011, reduced by estimated sublease rentals reasonably expected to be obtained for the property. Beginning in the third quarter of fiscal year 2008, the buyer was delinquent in making both its lease payments and payments for certain building expenses, requiring the Company to make minimum payments to date in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008 of $0.4 million. As a result, the remaining accrual is currently $2.3 million. The buyer also filed for bankruptcy protection on October 27, 2008.

Note 6: Income Taxes

The Company regularly reviews its tax positions in each significant taxing jurisdiction in the process of evaluating its unrecognized tax benefits as required by FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 48,“Accounting forUncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN No. 48”). Adjustments are made to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits when: (i) facts and circumstances regarding a tax position change, causing a change in management’s judgment regarding that tax position; (ii) a tax position is effectively settled with a tax authority; and/or (iii) the statute of limitations expires regarding a tax position.

At June 29,September 28, 2008, the Company had gross tax effected unrecognized tax benefits of $52.1$34.8 million, of which $37.7$29.2 million, if recognized, would affect the continuing operations effective tax rate.
