¹ The fair value is calculated as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Our derivative financial instruments are categorized as Level 2 assets or liabilities as they have observable inputs based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in inactive markets. The fair market value was estimated using market data for the components of the derivatives financial instruments. See Note 1 in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Form 10-K for more information on fair value measurements. There were no transfers of derivative financial instruments between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as of July 27, 2012, October 28, 2011 or July 29, 2011.
