20. European Principal Company

In May 2011, the Company approved, subject to successful works council consultations, plans to reorganize its European operations to function under a centralized management and value chain model. After completing the reorganization in 2012, the European Principal Company (“EPC”) will manage the European segment centrally. The European subsidiaries will execute sales and distribution locally, and local production companies will act as toll manufacturers on behalf of the EPC. The Company expects to incorporate the EPC in The Netherlands.
