Accumulated amortization related to goodwill of $55 million arising prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 142 has been reflected in the
gross carrying amount of goodwill as of September 25, 2004 and September 27, 2003.
During the third quarter of 2004, the Company recorded an adjustment of approximately $5 million to goodwill related to the acquisition of
PowerSchool, Inc (PowerSchool) in fiscal 2001. This reduction of goodwill included the cancellation of 79,167 shares of Apple common stock,
valued at approximately $2 million, that were previously held in escrow and were refunded upon resolution of certain matters arising out of the
acquisition of PowerSchool. This adjustment also included approximately $3 million to adjust the original estimates of the pre-acquisition
PowerSchool restructuring liability to actual costs incurred.
