Total other income (expense), net	$	(864	)	$	(281	)	$	(663	)	$	(489	)

The increase in other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was primarily due to foreign exchange effects on revenues and expenses, primarily related to changes in exchange rates of the Japanese yen and the New Taiwan dollar to the U.S. dollar, net of the gains realized and losses incurred on forward foreign exchange contracts discussed in Note 9 of this Form 10-Q, including $333 of foreign exchange loss recorded in the third quarter of fiscal 2012 to correct prior period remeasurement of cash at a foreign location.  The increase in other expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 was primarily due to these foreign exchange effects and the absence of the development grant received in Singapore in the second quarter of fiscal 2011.  As disclosed in Note 1, prior period other income (expense) amounts have been adjusted to exclude interest expense to conform to the current year presentation.
