(1) 
Consists of the following: special termination benefits, plan participants' contributions and currency translation adjustments, primarily related to CIT's Germany pension plan.
(2) 
These amounts were recognized as liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2017 and 2016.
(3) 
Company assets of $82.9 million and $86.1 million as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, related to the non-qualified U.S. executive retirement plan obligation are not included in plan assets but related liabilities are in the benefit obligation.
(4) 
Since the Plans' benefits are frozen, the rate of compensation increase is no longer an assumption used to calculate the accumulated benefit obligation. Therefore, the accumulated benefit obligation was the same as the projected benefit obligation at December 31, 2017 and 2016.
(5) 
Not applicable
(6) 
As of December 31, 2017, the assets for CIT's qualified pension plan exceeded the projected benefit obligations of the Plan
