Benefit Plan Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly

participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on the valuation techniques identified in the tables below. The valuation techniques are
as follows:

funded through trusts. The following table shows our benefit plan assets by asset class. These investments are presented net of the related benefit
obligation in pension, postretirement and related benefits on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
