* Accumulated impairment relates to a charge of $2,840.0 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2008 as a result of the Company’s annual impairment testing.
During 2011 the Company corrected certain immaterial purchase accounting errors associated with the acquisition of Trane.
As a result of the planned divestiture of Hussmann, the Company was required to test Goodwill within the Climate Solutions segment for impairment in the first quarter of 2011, and no impairment charge was required.
