Question-and-Answer Session
Operator
(Operator Instructions) Your first question comes from Greg Bolan - Wachovia Capital.
[Unidentified Analyst] - Wachovia Capital
This is [Eric Hebert] on behalf of Greg Bolan. First question here is on the guidance. Do you plan and recognizing the tax liability of $5.8 million rateably throughout the year or all in one quarter? And then excluding this additional income tax, what do you believe your effective tax rate would be?
Buzz Brenkert
This will be reflected throughout the year in the projected tax rate for the full year. So, I am not sure will be rateable, but it will be proportional, if you will. Sorry, Eric. Without that, I would say it’s probably comparable to our rate this year, which is about 36% for the full year.
Unidentified Analyst - Wachovia Capital
Okay, perfect. Moving on, what is the net book-to-bill that you have assumed in your 2009 revenue guidance? And does it include that significant cancellation Candace described in her remarks?
Buzz Brenkert
The net book-to-bill we have assumed is in range of 1.2 to 1.3. And I am sorry, Eric what was the second part of the question?
Candace Kendle
Yes, it does include that cancellation.
Buzz Brenkert
Yes.
Unidentified Analyst - Wachovia Capital
It does, okay. And then last question here, can you just break down the $1.2 million expense in the other income line. We were kind of expecting a gain in this line. I know last quarter you broke it down into the impact from the inter-company notes cross-currency hedges and FX transaction gains. Is it possible for you to do that for us today?
Buzz Brenkert
Yes, I have got a schedule. Let me find it and come back to you, Eric, later on in the Q&A session.

Your next question comes from Dave Windley - Jefferies & Co.
Dave Windley - Jefferies & Co
Candace, on the programming issue, the rework events, I was hoping we could understand, I am interpreting that as data management, programming issue . Is that correct?
Candace Kendle
Not specifically, not data management, but it is a single event. There are no customer, no patients at risk and there are no long-term damages to the customer, if that is what you are getting at. But it is a one-time event that is being resolved amicably with the customer
Dave Windley - Jefferies & Co
Okay, I was just trying to gain an understanding of those things as well, but I guess what kind of programming are we talking about? I presume computer programming?
