Defined Benefit Plans

DEFINED BENEFIT PLANS

The Company sponsors several U.S. and non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans to eligible employees and retirees. The noncontributory defined benefit pension plans covering non-collectively bargained U.S. employees provide benefits on an average pay formula while most plans for collectively bargained U.S. employees provide benefits on a flat dollar benefit formula. The non-U.S. pension plans generally provide benefits based on earnings and years of service. The Company also maintains other supplemental plans for officers and other key employees.

The components of the Company’s Net periodic pension benefit cost (income) for the three and nine months ended September 30 were as follows:
