(a)
Intersegment net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 were not material.
(b)
Legacy items include current costs related to former operations of the Company, including pension and other postretirement benefit costs, certain charges for legal matters and environmental remediation costs, and certain charges which are considered to be unusual or non-recurring including the earnings impact of the proposed asbestos settlement. Legacy items also include equity earnings from PPG’s approximate 40 percent investment in the former automotive glass and services business. The expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 includes nonrecurring environmental remediation pretax charges of $12 million and $159 million, respectively. The 2012 charge relates to continued environmental remediation activities at legacy chemicals sites, primarily at PPG’s former Jersey City, N.J. chromium manufacturing plant and associated sites. The expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 include a pretax charge of $18 million for the settlement losses related to certain legacy Canadian glass pension plans.
(c)
For the three months ended March 31, 2013, the expense includes the flow-through cost of sales of the step up to fair value of inventory acquired from Spraylat and advisory, legal, accounting, valuation and other professional or consulting fees incurred in connection with acquisition activity. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, the expense represents the flow-through cost of sales of the step up to fair value of inventory acquired from Dyrup and Colpisa. These costs are considered to be unusual and non-recurring and do not reduce the segment earnings used to evaluate the performance of the operating segments.
