As part of this program, we announced the elimination of 5,000 positions in research and development, marketing, sales, finance, legal, human resources, and information technology by June 30, 2010. As of September 30, 2009, we had reduced our overall number of positions by approximately 5,000 and headcount by approximately 4,600. In November 2009, we identified an additional 800 positions for elimination based on our efforts to manage our expenses. Severance expense of approximately $52 million associated with these additional eliminations was reflected in our second quarter financial statements. To date, we have had a headcount reduction of approximately 5,300 under our resource management efforts.   The changes in our employee severance liabilities related to our resource management efforts during the three months and six months ended December 31, 2009 were as follows:   <table style="BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" align="center"> <tr>
