(Operator Instructions) Welcome to the Ciena Corporation Fiscal First Quarter 2010 Results Conference Call. At this time for opening remarks and introductions, I’d like to turn the conference over to the Ciena’s Investor Relations Consultant, Ms. [Robin Weinberg]. [Robin Weinberg]: I am pleased to have with me Gary Smith, Ciena's CEO and President, and Jim Moylan, CFO. In addition, Tom Mock, our SVP Strategic Planning will be with us for the Q&A portion of today’s call. This morning’s prepared remarks will be presented in three segments. Gary will review our financial performance in the first quarter, discuss our view of the market environment, and provide an update on the integration planning around our pending acquisition of the Optical Networking and Carrier Ethernet assets of Nortel’s MEN business. Jim will then detail our Q1 financial results, speak with you about expected financial metrics for the combined organization, and provide our guidance for Q2. We’ll then open the call to questions from the sell side analysts. This morning’s press release is available on National Business Wire and on Ciena's website at www.Ciena.com. Before I turn the call over to Gary, I’ll remind you that during this call we will be making some forward looking statements. Such statements are based on current expectations, forecasts, and assumptions of the company that could include risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the statements discussed today. These statements should be viewed in the context of the risk factors detailed in our 10-Q filed with the SEC on December 22, 2009. We will file our first quarter 10-Q on or before March 11th. Ciena assumes no obligation to update the information discussed in this conference call, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Today’s discussion includes certain adjusted or non-GAAP measures of Ciena’s results of operations. A detailed reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to our GAAP results is included in today’s results release available on our website at www.Ciena.com. Lastly, as a reminder this call is being recorded and will be available for replay from the investors portion of our website.
