Acquisitions	Note 3. Acquisitions On June 3, 2013, the Company acquired RAE Systems, Inc. (RAE), a global manufacturer of fixed and portable gas and radiation detection systems, and software. The aggregate value, net of cash acquired, was $338 million and was allocated to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. On a preliminary basis, the Company has assigned approximately $96 million to identifiable intangible assets, predominantly customer relationships, existing technology and trademarks. These intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated lives which range from 8 to 10 years using straight-line and accelerated amortization methods. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of net assets acquired (approximating $250 million), was recorded as goodwill. This goodwill arises primarily from the avoidance of the time and costs which would be required (and the associated risks that would be encountered) to enhance our product offerings to key target markets and serve as entry into new and profitable segments, and the expected cost synergies that will be realized through the consolidation of the acquired business within our Automation and Control Solutions segment. The goodwill is non-deductible for tax purposes. The results from the acquisition date through June 30, 2013 are included in the Automation and Control Solutions segment. The results were not material to the consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2013, the purchase accounting for RAE is subject to final adjustment primarily for the valuation of inventory and property, plant and equipment, useful lives of intangible assets, amounts allocated to intangible assets and goodwill, for certain pre-acquisition contingencies and for settlement of post closing purchase price adjustments. In December 2012, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Intermec, Inc.

Intermec is a U.S. public company which operates globally and had reported 2012 revenues of approximately $790 million. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter 2013, pending regulatory review by the United States.
