PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

NOTE 3. PENSIONS AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

We sponsor funded and unfunded domestic and foreign defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit (OPEB) plans. Contributions to these plans were as follows:

	Three months ended
	March 31,
In millions	2023		2022
Defined benefit pension contributions	$	88	$	33
OPEB payments, net	4		10
Defined contribution pension plans	43		36

We anticipate making additional defined benefit pension contributions during the remainder of 2023 of $20 million for our U.S. and U.K. qualified and non-qualified pension plans. These contributions may be made from trusts or company funds either to increase pension assets or to make direct benefit payments to plan participants. We expect our 2023 annual net periodic pension cost to be near zero.

The components of net periodic pension and OPEB expense (income) under our plans were as follows:
