Derivatives and Hedging Activities</b> </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><b>Cash Flow Hedges</b> </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company has subsidiaries that conduct a substantial portion of their business in Great Britain Pounds Sterling, Euros, Canadian Dollars, Indian Rupees and Polish Zlotys but have significant sales contracts that are denominated primarily in U.S. Dollars. Periodically, the Company enters into forward contracts to exchange U.S. Dollars for these currencies to hedge a portion of the Company’s exposure from U.S. Dollar sales. </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The forward contracts described above are used to mitigate the potential volatility to earnings and cash flow arising from changes in currency exchange rates that impact the Company’s U.S. Dollar sales for certain foreign operations. The forward contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges and are recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet at fair value, with the offset reflected in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (AOCI), net of deferred taxes. The gain or loss on the forward contracts is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) (OCI) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transactions affect earnings. The notional value of the forward contracts at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was $2,213.7 million and $2,286.5 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the total fair value before taxes of the Company’s forward contracts and the accounts in the condensed consolidated balance sheet in which the fair value amounts are included are shown below: </div> <div align="center"> <table style="font-size: 10pt; text-align: left" cellspacing="0" border="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%">  <tr valign="bottom"> <td width="76%"> </td> <td width="5%"> </td> <td width="3%"> </td> <td width="1%"> </td> <td width="3%"> </td> <td width="5%"> </td> <td width="3%"> </td> <td width="1%"> </td> <td width="3%"> </td> </tr> <tr style="font-size: 8pt" valign="bottom"> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" align="center" colspan="3"><b>March 31,</b></td> <td> </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" align="center" colspan="3"><b>December 31,</b></td> </tr> <tr style="font-size: 8pt" valign="bottom"> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" align="center" colspan="3" style="border-bottom: 1px solid #000000"><b>2011</b></td> <td> </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" align="center" colspan="3" style="border-bottom: 1px solid #000000"><b>2010</b></td> </tr> <tr style="font-size: 8pt" valign="bottom"> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" align="center" colspan="7"><b>(Dollars in millions)</b></td> </tr>   <tr valign="bottom" style="background: #cceeff"> <td> <div style="margin-left:15px; text-indent:-15px">Prepaid expenses and other assets </div></td> <td> </td> <td align="right">$</td> <td align="right">39.5</td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td align="right">$</td> <td align="right">20.3</td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr valign="bottom"> <td> <div style="margin-left:15px; text-indent:-15px">Other assets </div></td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td align="right">77.1</td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td align="right">44.6</td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr valign="bottom" style="background: #cceeff"> <td> <div style="margin-left:15px; text-indent:-15px">Accrued expenses </div></td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td align="right">11.9</td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td align="right">22.7</td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr valign="bottom"> <td> <div style="margin-left:15px; text-indent:-15px">Other non-current liabilities </div></td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td align="right">4.8</td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td align="right">11.6</td> <td> </td> </tr>  </table> </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The amounts recognized in OCI and reclassified from AOCI into earnings are shown below: </div> <div align="center"> <table style="font-size: 10pt; text-align: left" cellspacing="0" border="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%">  <tr valign="bottom"> <td width="76%"> </td> <td width="5%"> </td> <td width="3%"> </td> <td width="1%"> </td> <td width="3%"> </td> <td width="5%"> </td> <td width="3%"> </td> <td width="1%"> </td> <td width="3%"> </td> </tr> <tr style="font-size: 8pt" valign="bottom"> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" align="center" colspan="7"><b>Three months ended</b></td> </tr> <tr style="font-size: 8pt" valign="bottom"> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" align="center" colspan="7" style="border-bottom: 1px solid #000000"><b>March 31,</b></td> </tr> <tr style="font-size: 8pt" valign="bottom"> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" align="center" colspan="3" style="border-bottom: 1px solid #000000"><b>2011</b></td> <td> </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" align="center" colspan="3" style="border-bottom: 1px solid #000000"><b>2010</b></td> </tr> <tr style="font-size: 8pt" valign="bottom"> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" align="center" colspan="7"><b>(Dollars in millions)</b></td> </tr>   <tr valign="bottom"> <td> <div style="margin-left:15px; text-indent:-15px">Amount of gain/(loss) recognized in OCI, net of tax of ($22.7) and $18, respectively </div></td> <td> </td> <td align="right">$</td> <td align="right">48.0</td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" align="right">$</td> <td align="right">(30.6</td> <td nowrap="nowrap">)</td> </tr> <tr valign="bottom"> <td> <div style="margin-left:15px; text-indent:-15px">Amount of gain/(loss) reclassified from AOCI into sales </div></td> <td> </td> <td align="right">$</td> <td align="right">1.2</td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" align="right">$</td> <td align="right">(5.1</td> <td nowrap="nowrap">)</td> </tr>  </table> </div>   </div>  <div style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif"> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The total fair value of the Company’s forward contracts of a $99.9 million net asset (after deferred taxes of $28.1 million) at March 31, 2011, combined with $2.8 million of losses on previously matured hedges of intercompany sales and gains from forward contracts terminated prior to the original maturity dates, is recorded in AOCI and will be reflected in income as earnings are affected by the hedged items. As of March 31, 2011, the portion of the net $99.9 million asset that would be reclassified into earnings to offset the effect of the hedged item in the next 12 months is a gain of $27.6 million. These forward contracts mature on a monthly basis with maturity dates that range from April 2011 to December 2015. There was a de minimis amount of both ineffectiveness and hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010. </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><b>Fair Value Hedges</b> </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company enters into interest rate swaps to increase the Company’s exposure to variable interest rates. The settlement and maturity dates on each swap are the same as those on the referenced notes. The interest rate swaps are accounted for as fair value hedges and the carrying value of the notes is adjusted to reflect the fair values of the interest rate swaps. At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had no outstanding interest rate swaps. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, before tax gains of $0.4 million and $0.8 million ($0.3 million and $0.5 million after tax), respectively, were recorded as a reduction to interest expense. These amounts represent previously terminated swaps which are amortized over the life of the underlying debt. </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><b>Other Forward Contracts</b> </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As a supplement to the foreign exchange cash flow hedging program, the Company enters into forward contracts to manage its foreign currency risk related to the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the relevant functional currency. These forward contracts generally mature monthly and the notional amounts are adjusted periodically to reflect changes in net monetary asset balances. Since these contracts are not designated as hedges, the gains or losses on these forward contracts are recorded in selling and administrative costs or cost of sales, as appropriate. These contracts are utilized to mitigate the earnings impact of the translation of net monetary assets and liabilities. </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company recorded a transaction loss on its monetary assets of $13.5 million, which was offset by gains on the other forward contracts described above of $10.2 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company recorded a transaction gain on its monetary assets of $11.6 million, which was offset by losses on the other forward contracts described above of $12.5 million. </div>   </div>  <div style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif"> </div>  <!-- Begin Block Tagged NotefalsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringThis element can be used to disclose the entity's entire derivative instruments and hedging activities disclosure as a single block of text.
