As of March 31, 2013, $1.7 million has been contributed to our sponsored pension plans.  We presently anticipate contributing an additional $9.7 million to fund our pension plans during 2013 for a total of $11.4 million. Not included in the anticipated contributions for the year are any potential payments related to the plan associated with our Elkhart, Indiana facility that was recently closed. The amount of those contributions have not been determined as of the date of this filing.
