Good morning Dave.

Hey Craig can you just go over again the impact of the Doel outage and the Tianpu outage on dollar basis and earnings per share basis?
Craig A. Rogerson - President and Chief Executive Officer
On a dollar basis from a EBIT perceptive it's about $2 million at Doel and about $1 million at Tianpu. So $3 million overall that's $0.02 I guess.
Unidentified Company Representative
About $0.02.
Craig A. Rogerson - President and Chief Executive Officer
Again the Doel shut down we had planned and obviously the TMPO was unplanned, but fortunately it started up well and it kind of what we expected, in fact hoped for there would only be $1 million impact in it, turned out that was the case. They both were up and running and running well now.

And Craig what's your Tianpu make earn in Q2?
Craig A. Rogerson - President and Chief Executive Officer
Its to you Allen.
Allen A. Spizzo - Vice President and Chief Financial Officer
Sales should be in the neighborhood of $10 million to $15 million in that range, again depending on how quickly we ramp up as Craig mentioned we are tailoring to make the higher grade products at the facility.
Craig A. Rogerson - President and Chief Executive Officer
We would you know... that product should be in the range of 30% to 35% gross margin. The MC that product, again its not the same as it would be in the rest of the world yet because we are making the... we had to make in the easier products to make during the startup, that's the same situation at Jiangmen with the CMC as one of the negative products in the product mix issues that we are making the easier products startup and are just qualifying as we ended the first quarter in April here as a more sophisticated products that I mentioned. So we would hope to get some product mix improvement as we produce and qualify those products in the second quarter but it's not insignificant at those kind of margins with that kind of volume in the quarter.
