Shanghai, China, Facility In the third quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company ceased the manufacture of photomasks at its Shanghai, China, facility. Net restructuring credits of $5.0 million in 2010 primarily relate to the sale of the Company's Shanghai, China, manufacturing facility. In 2009 the carrying value of this facility was written down to its estimated fair value at that time, and in 2010 the facility was sold for net proceeds of $12.9 million, which exceeded its carrying value and resulted in a gain of $5.4 million that was recorded as a credit to the restructuring reserve. The following table sets forth the Company's restructuring reserve as of October 31, 2010 related to its Shanghai, China, facility, and reflects the activity affecting the reserve for the year then ended.
