[1] Interest rate derivatives gains/losses are primarily from fair value hedges and are included in interest expense. These gains/losses are substantially offset by increases/decreases in the value of the underlying debt, which are also included in interest expense. All other gains/losses are from non-designated hedges and are included in corporate unallocated expenses.

[2] Interest rate losses are included in interest expense. All other gains/losses are primarily included in cost of sales.
