The amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate was $35.4 million and $38.2 million, on July 28, 2010 and April 28, 2010, respectively. It is reasonably possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by as much as $27.5 million in the next 12 months due to the expiration of statutes of limitations in various foreign jurisdictions along with the progression of federal, state, and foreign audits in process. </div> <div style="margin-top: 6pt; font-size: 1pt">  </div> <div align="left" style="margin-left: 4%; margin-right: 0%; text-indent: 0%; font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times; color: #000000; background: #ffffff"> The Company classifies interest and penalties on tax uncertainties as a component of the provision for income taxes.

The Company operates in an international environment with significant operations in various locations outside the U.S. Accordingly, the consolidated income tax rate is a composite rate reflecting the earnings in various locations and the applicable tax rates. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world, including such major jurisdictions as Australia, Canada, Italy, the United Kingdom and the United States. The Company has substantially concluded all national income tax matters for years through Fiscal 2008 for the United Kingdom, through Fiscal 2007 for the U.S., through Fiscal 2006 in Canada, and through Fiscal 2005 for Australia and Italy. </div> <div style="margin-top: 6pt; font-size: 1pt">  </div> <div align="left" style="margin-left: 4%; margin-right: 0%; text-indent: 0%; font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times; color: #000000; background: #ffffff"> The effective tax rate for the current quarter was 25.3% compared to 28.5% last year. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily the result of increased benefits from foreign tax planning and the benefit of a statutory tax rate reduction in the United Kingdom, partially offset by higher repatriation costs. </div> </div>  <!-- Begin Block Tagged Note false false false us-types:textBlockItemType textblock Description containing the entire income tax disclosure.
