During the nine months ended October 1, 2011, the Company acquired $4 million of purchased intangibles as a result of the acquisition of Anter. In addition, the effect of foreign currency translation increased the gross carrying value of intangible assets and accumulated amortization for intangible assets by $7 million and $4 million, respectively, in the nine months ended October 1, 2011. Amortization expense for intangible assets was $7 million and $6 million for the three months ended October 1, 2011 and October 2, 2010, respectively. Amortization expense for intangible assets was $23 million and $20 million for the nine months ended October 1, 2011 and October 2, 2010, respectively. Amortization expense for intangible assets is estimated to be approximately $40 million per year for 2012 and 2013 and is estimated to increase to approximately $45 million per year for the years 2014 through 2016. The estimated significant increases in amortization expense in 2012, and thereafter, are due to amortization associated with capitalized software costs related to the launch of new products and software platforms planned in 2012.
