(a) In September 2010, ITT executed an amended cost-sharing agreement related to a business we disposed of a number of years ago. The amended agreement provides for a sharing of costs for claims resolved between 2010 and 2019 naming ITT or the entity which acquired the disposed business. Claim activity associated with the amended cost-sharing agreement for claims that were not filed against ITT are excluded from the table above.
