Footnotes:

(a) In 2012, the Company elected to change its method of recognizing actuarial gains and losses for its defined benefit pension and postretirement benefit plans. Certain prior year data has been adjusted retrospectively to reflect this accounting change.

(b) Equity reflects the repurchase of common shares amounting to: 2012—1,092,767; 2011—3,000,000; 2010—400,356; 2009—174,900 and 2008—4,662,700.

(c) We define net debt as total debt plus the portion of outstanding joint venture indebtedness guaranteed by us (or less the portion of outstanding joint venture indebtedness consolidated but not guaranteed by us), less cash and cash equivalents.

(d) On January 1, 2009, we adopted new accounting guidance associated with share-based payment transactions considered to be participating securities. This guidance states that unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends, such as certain of our restricted stock awards, are participating securities and therefore shall be included in the earnings per share calculation pursuant to the two-class method. In addition, the guidance requires all prior-period earnings per share data to be adjusted retrospectively, and as a result, all prior-period earnings per share data presented herein have been adjusted to conform to these provisions.

(e) Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted new accounting guidance requiring noncontrolling interests to be separately presented as a component of equity. Prior years have been adjusted to conform to the new guidance.
