Income Taxes	(10) Income Taxes The provision for income taxes was $41.1 million for the second quarter of 2013, representing an effective tax rate of 23.7% on pretax income before equity in net income of affiliates of $173.5 million, as compared to $31.8 million for the second quarter of 2012, representing an effective tax rate of 19.2% on pretax income before equity in net income of affiliates of $165.8 million. The provision for income taxes was $79.0 million for the six months ended June 29, 2013, representing an effective tax rate of 24.7% on pretax income before equity in net income of affiliates of $320.3 million, as compared to $71.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, representing an effective tax rate of 20.9% on a pretax income before equity in net income of affiliates of $339.8 million. In the first half of 2013, the Company recognized tax benefits of $4.5 million primarily related to the retroactive reinstatement of the U.S. research and development tax credit by the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which was signed into law on January 2, 2013, and a tax benefit of $15.8 million related to the reversal of a full valuation allowance with respect to the deferred tax assets of a foreign subsidiary. As a result of the reversal of a substantial portion of the Company’s U.S. valuation allowance in the fourth quarter of 2012, the provision for income taxes in the first half of 2013 reflects tax expense recorded with respect to the Company’s earnings in the United States. In the first half of 2013 and 2012, the provision for income taxes was primarily impacted by the level and mix of earnings among tax jurisdictions. The provision was also impacted by a portion of the Company’s restructuring charges and other expenses, for which no tax benefit was provided as the charges were incurred in certain countries for which no tax benefit is likely to be realized due to a history of operating losses in those countries. Excluding these items, the effective tax rate in the first half of 2013 and 2012 approximated the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 35% adjusted for income taxes on foreign earnings, losses and remittances, valuation allowances, tax credits, income tax incentives and other permanent items. The Company’s current and future provision for income taxes is impacted by the initial recognition of and changes in valuation allowances in certain countries. The Company intends to maintain these allowances until it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. The Company’s future provision for income taxes will include no tax benefit with respect to losses incurred and no tax expense with respect to income generated in these countries until the respective valuation allowances are eliminated.
