We did not make any contributions to our qualified pension plans during the first six months of 2016. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we made payments of $17.0 million related to our non-qualified pension plans and $2.5 million to our OPEB plans. We expect to make payments of $6.0 million related to our pension plans and $15.2 million related to our OPEB plans during the remainder of 2016, dependent upon various factors affecting us, including our liquidity position and possible tax law changes.
