Income taxes for the second quarter of 2013 included tax benefits related to non-U.S. jurisdictions of $10 million in aggregate for the favorable resolution of certain prior year tax matters (which was previously reserved as an uncertain tax position) and $9 million for a favorable change in tax law applicable to prior years.
