Uncertain Tax Positions

As of December 30, 2011, we had $19.1 million of uncertain tax positions, including $4.6 million of interest and penalties. During the quarter ended March 30, 2012, there was a decrease of $14.2 million of uncertain tax positions, including interest and penalties of $4.4 million. Included in the $14.2 million is $6.9 million of uncertain tax positions, including interest and penalties of $3.4 million, which affected the effective tax rate.  The decrease is primarily related to a lapse in the statute of limitations and settlements of tax audits and litigation in certain foreign jurisdictions.
