Interest expense, net was lower by $4 million in the first quarter of 2009 compared to the first quarter of 2008. The lower interest expense is primarily attributable to a lower weighted average interest rate, $7 million of which resulted from a lower London Interbank Offered Rate, or “LIBOR.” The amendment of our Senior Secured Credit Facility, which increases our interest-rate margin by 300 basis points, increased interest expense in the first quarter of 2009 by $3 million. Our weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt was 5.88% during the first quarter of 2009 compared to 6.69% in the first quarter of 2008.

At April 4, 2009, we had outstanding interest rate hedging arrangements whereby we have capped the interest rate on $400 million of our floating rate debt at 3.50% and have fixed the interest rate on $1.4 billion of our floating rate debt at 4.16%. Approximately 79% of our total debt outstanding at April 4, 2009 was at a fixed or capped LIBOR rate.

Interest expense, net was lower by $25 million in the six months of 2008 compared to 2007. The lower interest expense is primarily attributable to a lower weighted average interest rate, $16 million of which resulted from a lower LIBOR and $3 million of which resulted from reduced interest rates achieved through changes in our financing structure such as the February 2007 amendment to our senior secured credit facility and our accounts receivable securitization that we entered into in November 2007. In addition, interest expense was reduced by $6 million as a result of our net prepayments of long-term debt during 2007 of $178 million. Our weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt was 6.35% during the six months of 2008 compared to 7.87% in 2007.

Interest expense, net was higher in the nine month period in 2007 by $126 million compared to the same nine month period in 2006 primarily as a result of the indebtedness incurred in connection with the spin off from Sara Lee on September 5, 2006, consisting of $2.6 billion pursuant to a new senior secured credit facility, a new senior secured second lien credit facility and a bridge loan facility. In December 2006, we issued $500 million of floating rate senior notes and the net proceeds were used to repay the bridge loan facility. In February 2007, we entered into a first amendment to our senior secured credit facility with our lenders which primarily lowered the applicable borrowing margin with respect to the Term B loan facility from 2.25% to 1.75% on LIBOR based loans and from 1.25% to 0.75% on Base Rate loans.
