issuance costs relating to the bridge commitment letter from the computation of fixed charges for such nine-month period. Accordingly, including these expenses, our ratio of earnings to fixed charges for the nine months ended March&nbsp;27, 2016
would have been 7.6x on an actual basis, and our pro forma ratio of earnings to fixed charges (giving effect to the KLA-Tencor Transactions and related financings as outlined in &#147;Use of Proceeds&#148; in the preliminary prospectus supplement,
and assuming the KLA-Tencor Senior Notes are exchanged for new series of Lam Research senior unsecured notes) for the nine months ended March&nbsp;27, 2016 would have been 3.6x. </TD></TR></TABLE>
