We have increased our revenue projections for Q4 by $220MM and Q1 and Q2 of next year by $130MM and $140MM, respectively to reflect these essentially one-time revenue impacts, which will flow through to operating income at an assumed incremental 50% operating margin including some minor expense savings at Agilent as some 50+staff associated with these operations are transferred to A. On an ongoing basis, we have factored in an incremental $170MM in revenues for F01 and about $225MM in F02 to take into account business that will not be booked as sales to CIT, rather than as a operating leases.
