(a)

Certain items are items that management does not consider to be representative of operating segment results and they are, therefore, excluded from Segment EBIT. Certain items, pre-tax, for the three months ended March 31, 2013 include $19 million related to global restructuring activities and $2 million for acquisition-related charges (consisting of $2 million for certain other one-time integration costs) offset by $1 million of foreign currency gain on revaluation. Certain items, pre-tax, for the six months ended March 31, 2013 include $25 million related to global restructuring activities and $16 million for acquisition-related charges (consisting of $5 million for certain other one-time integration costs and $11 million of charges related to acquisition accounting adjustments for the acquired inventory) offset by $1 million of foreign currency gain on revaluation. Certain items, pre-tax, for the three months ended March 31, 2012 include $9 million related to global restructuring activities. Certain items, pre-tax, for the six months ended March 31, 2012 include $12 million related to global restructuring activities and $2 million for environmental and legal reserves.

(b)	Equity in earnings of affiliated companies is included in Segment EBIT and is removed from Unallocated and other to reconcile to income (loss) from operations before taxes.

(c)	Unallocated corporate costs are not controlled by the operating segments and primarily benefit corporate interests.

(d)

General unallocated income (expense) consists of gains (losses) arising from foreign currency transactions, net of other foreign currency risk management activities, the impact of accounting for certain inventory on a LIFO basis, and the profit or loss related to the corporate adjustment for unearned revenue.
