Net income per share:
Basic net income per share	$	0.24	$	0.24
Diluted net income per share	$	0.24	$	0.24
Potentially dilutive securities excluded from diluted net income per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive	3		8

The 1.00% Convertible Senior Notes, or the Notes, are included in the calculation of diluted net income per share if their inclusion is dilutive. The Notes will generally have a dilutive impact on net income per share if the Company's average stock price for the reporting period exceeds the conversion price of $20.16 per share.

The denominator for diluted net income per share does not include any effect from the convertible note hedge transaction, or the Note Hedges, that we entered into concurrently with the issuance of the Notes, as its effect would be anti-dilutive. In the event an actual conversion of any or all of the Notes occurs, the shares that would be delivered to us under the Note Hedges are designed to neutralize the dilutive effect of the shares that we would issue under the Notes.

The denominator for diluted net income per share will not include any effect from the warrants, which we entered into concurrently with the issuance of the Notes, unless the Company's average stock price for the reporting period exceeds the strike price of $27.14 per share.

Please refer to Note 10 of these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion regarding the Notes.
