   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&lt;u&gt;Discontinued Operations Liability&lt;/u&gt;
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;In October&amp;#160;1998, Cooper sold its Automotive Products business to Federal-Mogul Corporation
   (&amp;#8220;Federal-Mogul&amp;#8221;). These discontinued businesses (including the Abex Friction product line
   obtained from Pneumo-Abex Corporation (&amp;#8220;Pneumo&amp;#8221;) in 1994) were operated through subsidiary
   companies, and the stock of those subsidiaries was sold to Federal-Mogul pursuant to a Purchase and
   Sale Agreement dated August&amp;#160;17, 1998 (&amp;#8220;1998 Agreement&amp;#8221;). In conjunction with the sale,
   Federal-Mogul indemnified Cooper for certain liabilities of these subsidiary companies, including
   liabilities related to the Abex Friction product line and any potential liability that Cooper may
   have to Pneumo pursuant to a 1994 Mutual Guaranty Agreement between Cooper and Pneumo. On October
   1, 2001, Federal-Mogul and several of its affiliates filed a Chapter&amp;#160;11 bankruptcy petition. The
   Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware confirmed Federal-
   Mogul&amp;#8217;s plan of reorganization and Federal-Mogul emerged from bankruptcy in December&amp;#160;2007. As
       part of Federal-Mogul&amp;#8217;s Plan of Reorganization, Cooper and Federal-Mogul reached a settlement
       agreement that was subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court resolving Federal-Mogul&amp;#8217;s
       indemnification obligations to Cooper. As discussed further below, on September&amp;#160;30, 2008, the
       Bankruptcy Court issued its final ruling denying Cooper&amp;#8217;s participation in the proposed
       Federal-Mogul 524(g) trust resulting in implementation of the previously approved Plan B
       Settlement. As part of its obligation to Pneumo for any asbestos-related claims arising from the
       Abex Friction product line (&amp;#8220;Abex Claims&amp;#8221;), Cooper has rights, confirmed by Pneumo, to significant
       insurance for such claims. Based on information provided by representatives of Federal-Mogul and
       recent claims experience, from August&amp;#160;28, 1998 through March&amp;#160;31, 2010, a total of 148,121 Abex
       Claims were filed, of which 130,630 claims have been resolved leaving 17,491 Abex Claims pending at
       March&amp;#160;31, 2010. During the three months ended March&amp;#160;31, 2010, 381 claims were filed and 5,719
   claims were resolved. Since August&amp;#160;28, 1998, the average indemnity payment for resolved Abex
       Claims was $2,024 before insurance. A total of $172.1&amp;#160;million was spent on defense costs for the
       period August&amp;#160;28, 1998 through March&amp;#160;31, 2010. Existing insurance coverage currently provides
       approximately 30% recovery of the total defense and indemnity payments for Abex Claims due to
       exhaustion of primary layers of coverage and litigation with certain excess insurers, although, in
       certain periods, insurance recoveries can be higher due to new settlements with insurers.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&lt;u&gt;2005 &amp;#8212; 2007&lt;/u&gt;
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;In December&amp;#160;2005, Cooper reached an initial agreement in negotiations with the representatives
       of Federal-Mogul, its bankruptcy committees and the future claimants (the &amp;#8220;Representatives&amp;#8221;)
   regarding Cooper&amp;#8217;s participation in Federal Mogul&amp;#8217;s proposed 524(g) asbestos trust. By
       participating in this trust, Cooper would have resolved its liability for asbestos claims arising
       from Cooper&amp;#8217;s former Abex Friction Products business. The proposed settlement agreement was
       subject to court approval and certain other approvals. Future claims would have been resolved
       through the bankruptcy trust.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;Although the final determination of whether Cooper would participate in the Federal-Mogul
       524(g) trust was unknown, Cooper&amp;#8217;s management concluded that, at the date of the filing of its 2005
   Form 10-K, the most likely outcome in the range of potential outcomes was a settlement
       approximating the December&amp;#160;2005 proposed settlement. Accordingly, the accrual for potential
       liabilities related to the Automotive Products sale and the Federal-Mogul bankruptcy was $526.3
   million at December&amp;#160;31, 2005. The December&amp;#160;31, 2005 discontinued operations accrual included
       payments to a 524(g) trust over 25&amp;#160;years that were undiscounted, and included $215&amp;#160;million of
       insurance recoveries where insurance in place agreements, settlements or policy recoveries were
       probable.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;Throughout 2006 and 2007, Cooper continued to believe that the most likely outcome in the
       range of potential outcomes was a revised settlement with Cooper resolving its asbestos obligations
       through participation in the proposed Federal-Mogul 524(g) trust. While the details of the
       proposed settlement agreement evolved during the on-going negotiations throughout 2006 and 2007,
       the underlying principles of the proposed settlement arrangements being negotiated principally
       included fixed payments to a 524(g) trust over 25&amp;#160;years that were subject to reduction for
       insurance proceeds received in the future.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;As a result of the then current status of settlement negotiations, Cooper recorded a $20.3
   million after-tax discontinued operations charge, net of an $11.4&amp;#160;million income tax benefit, in
       the second quarter of 2006 to reflect the revised terms of the proposed settlement agreement at
       that time. The discontinued operations accrual was $509.1&amp;#160;million and $529.6&amp;#160;million as of
       December&amp;#160;31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and included payments to a 524(g) trust over 25&amp;#160;years
       that were undiscounted, and included insurance recoveries of $230&amp;#160;million and $239&amp;#160;million,
       respectively, where insurance in place agreements, settlements or policy recoveries were probable.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware confirmed Federal-Mogul&amp;#8217;s plan of
       reorganization on November&amp;#160;8, 2007, and the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware
       affirmed the Bankruptcy Court&amp;#8217;s order on November&amp;#160;14, 2007. As part of its ruling, the Bankruptcy
       Court approved the Plan B Settlement between Cooper and Federal-Mogul, which would require payment
       of $138&amp;#160;million to Cooper in the event Cooper&amp;#8217;s participation in the Federal-Mogul 524(g) trust is
       not approved for any reason,
   or if Cooper elected not to participate or to pursue participation in the trust. The
       Bankruptcy Court stated that it would consider approving Cooper&amp;#8217;s participation in the
       Federal-Mogul 524(g) trust at a later time, and that its order confirming the plan of
       reorganization and approving the settlement between Cooper and Federal-Mogul did not preclude later
       approval of Cooper&amp;#8217;s participation in the 524(g) trust. Accordingly, in an effort to continue
       working towards approval of Cooper&amp;#8217;s participation in the trust and to address certain legal issues
       identified by the Court, Cooper, Pneumo-Abex, Federal-Mogul, and other plan supporters filed the
       Modified Plan A Settlement Documents on December&amp;#160;13, 2007. The Modified Plan A Settlement
       Documents would have required Cooper to make an initial payment of $248.5&amp;#160;million in cash to the
       Federal-Mogul trust upon implementation of Plan A with additional annual payments of up to $20
   million each due over 25&amp;#160;years. If the Bankruptcy Court had approved the modified settlement and
       that settlement was implemented, Cooper, through Pneumo-Abex LLC, would have continued to have
       access to Abex insurance policies.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&lt;u&gt;2008 &amp;#8212; 2010&lt;/u&gt;
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;During the first quarter of 2008, the Bankruptcy Court concluded hearings on Plan A. On
       September&amp;#160;30, 2008, the Bankruptcy Court issued its ruling denying the Modified Plan A Settlement
       resulting in Cooper not participating in the Federal-Mogul 524(g) trust and instead proceeding with
       the Plan B Settlement that had previously been approved by the Bankruptcy Court. As a result of
       the Plan B Settlement, Cooper received the $138&amp;#160;million payment, plus interest of $3&amp;#160;million, in
       October&amp;#160;2008 from the Federal-Mogul Bankruptcy estate and will continue to resolve through the tort
       system the asbestos related claims arising from the Abex Friction product line that it had sold to
       Federal-Mogul in 1998. Additionally, under Plan B, Cooper has access to Abex insurance policies.
   As a result of the September&amp;#160;30, 2008 Bankruptcy Court ruling discussed above, Cooper adjusted its
       accounting in the third quarter of 2008 to reflect the separate assets and liabilities related to
       the on-going activities to resolve the potential asbestos related claims through the tort system.
   Cooper recorded income from discontinued operations of $16.6&amp;#160;million, net of a $9.4&amp;#160;million income
       tax expense, in the third quarter of 2008 to reflect the Plan B Settlement.
   &lt;/div&gt;

   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;During the first quarter of 2009, Cooper recognized a gain from discontinued operations of
   $18.9&amp;#160;million, net of a $12.0&amp;#160;million income tax expense, from negotiated insurance settlements
       consummated in the first quarter that were not previously recognized. Cooper believes that it is
       likely that additional insurance recoveries will be recorded in the future as new
       insurance-in-place agreements are consummated or settlements with insurance carriers are completed.
   Timing and value of these agreements and settlements cannot be currently estimated as they may be
       subject to extensive additional negotiation and litigation.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Asbestos Liability Estimate&lt;/i&gt;
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;As of March&amp;#160;31, 2010, Cooper estimates that the liability for pending and future indemnity and
       defense costs for the next 45&amp;#160;years will be $778.1&amp;#160;million. The amount included for unpaid
       indemnity and defense costs is not significant at March&amp;#160;31, 2010. The estimated liability is
       before any tax benefit and is not discounted as the timing of the actual payments is not reasonably
       predictable.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;The methodology used to project Cooper&amp;#8217;s liability estimate relies upon a number of
       assumptions including Cooper&amp;#8217;s recent claims experience and declining future asbestos spending
       based on past trends and publicly available epidemiological data, changes in various jurisdictions,
       management&amp;#8217;s judgment about the current and future litigation environment, and the availability to
       claimants of other payment sources.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;Abex discontinued using asbestos in the Abex Friction product line in the 1970&amp;#8217;s and
       epidemiological studies that are publicly available indicate the incidence of asbestos-related
       disease is in decline and should continue to decline steadily. However, there can be no assurance
       that these studies, or other assumptions, will not vary significantly from the estimates utilized
       to project the undiscounted liability.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;Although Cooper believes that its estimated liability for pending and future indemnity and
       defense costs represents the best estimate of its future obligation, Cooper utilized scenarios that
       it believed were reasonably possible that indicate a broader range of potential estimates from $505
   to $877&amp;#160;million (undiscounted).
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Asbestos Receivable Estimate&lt;/i&gt;
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;As of March&amp;#160;31, 2010, Cooper, through Pneumo-Abex LLC, has access to Abex insurance policies
       with remaining limits on policies with solvent insurers in excess of $680&amp;#160;million. Insurance
       recoveries reflected as receivables in the balance sheet include recoveries where
       insurance-in-place agreements, settlements or policy recoveries are probable. As of March&amp;#160;31,
       2010, Cooper&amp;#8217;s receivable for recoveries of costs from insurers amounted to $179.3&amp;#160;million, of
       which $67.0&amp;#160;million relate to costs previously paid or insurance settlements. Cooper&amp;#8217;s
       arrangements with the insurance carriers may defer certain amounts of insurance and settlement
       proceeds that Cooper is entitled to receive beyond twelve months. Approximately 90% of the $179.3
   million receivable from insurance companies at March&amp;#160;31, 2010 is due from domestic insurers whose
       AM Best rating is Excellent (A-) or better. The remaining balance of the insurance receivable has
       been significantly discounted to reflect management&amp;#8217;s best estimate of the recoverable amount.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;Cooper believes that it is likely that additional insurance recoveries will be recorded in the
       future as new insurance-in-place agreements are consummated or settlements with insurance carriers
       are completed. Timing and value of these agreements and settlements cannot be currently estimated
       as they may be subject to extensive additional negotiation and litigation.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Critical Accounting Assumptions&lt;/i&gt;
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;The amounts recorded by Cooper for its asbestos liability and related insurance receivables
       are not discounted and rely on assumptions that are based on currently known facts and strategy.
   The value of the liability on a discounted basis net of the amount of insurance recoveries likely
       to materialize in the future would be significantly lower than the net amounts currently recognized
       in the balance sheet. Cooper&amp;#8217;s actual asbestos costs or insurance recoveries could be
       significantly higher or lower than those recorded if assumptions used in the estimation process
       vary significantly from actual results over time. As the estimated liability is not discounted and
       extends over 45&amp;#160;years, any changes in key assumptions could have a significant impact on the
       recorded liability. Key variables in these assumptions include the number and type
   of new claims filed each year, the average indemnity and defense costs of resolving claims, the
       number of years these assumptions are projected into the future, and the resolution of on-going
       negotiations of additional settlement or coverage-in-place agreements with insurance carriers.
   Assumptions with respect to these variables are subject to greater uncertainty as the projection
       period lengthens. Other factors that may affect Cooper&amp;#8217;s liability and ability to recover under
       its insurance policies include uncertainties surrounding the litigation process from jurisdiction
       to jurisdiction and from case to case, reforms that may be made by state and federal courts, and
       the passage of state or federal tort reform legislation. Cooper will review these assumptions on a
       periodic basis to determine whether any adjustments are required to the estimate of its recorded
       asbestos liability and related insurance receivables.

   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;From a cash flow perspective, Cooper management believes that the annual cash outlay for its
       potential asbestos liability, net of insurance recoveries, will not be material to Cooper&amp;#8217;s
       operating cash flow.
   &lt;/div&gt;
