The senior notes contain typical restrictions on liens, sale leaseback transactions, mergers and sales of
assets. There are no sinking fund requirements on the senior notes and they may be redeemed at any time
at the option of the Company, at a redemption price as described in the related indenture agreement, as
supplemented and amended, in whole or in part.
During October 2003, the Company entered into interest rate swap contracts to convert its $150.0 million
principal amount of 6.75% senior notes from a fixed interest rate to a variable interest rate. Interest rate
swaps with a notional amount of $150.0 million were executed whereby the Company will receive interest
at a fixed rate of 6.75% and pay interest at a variable rate of approximately 2.76% above the six-month
London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). These interest rate swaps have a maturity date of May 15,
2008, which is equivalent to the maturity date of the senior notes.
Other Information
The Company is in compliance with all covenants and other requirements set forth in its debt agreements.
The Company does not have any rating downgrade triggers that would accelerate the maturity dates of its
revolving credit facility and public debt. However, a downgrade in the Company’s credit rating could
adversely affect the Company’s ability to renew existing, or obtain access to new, credit facilities in the
future and could increase the cost of such facilities. The Company’s current credit ratings are Baa1 and
BBB, as evaluated by Moody’s Investors Service and Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, respectively.

Purchase obligations reported in the table above include agreements to purchase goods or services that
are enforceable and legally binding on the Company and that specify all significant terms, including: fixed
or minimum quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum or variable price provisions; and the approximate
timing of the transaction.
The Company’s funding policy for its pension plans is to fund minimum amounts according to the
regulatory requirements under which the plans operate. From time to time, the Company may choose
to fund amounts in excess of the minimum for various reasons. The annual funding of pension obligations
are not expected to be material and are not shown above.
The Company’s financial obligation to collect, recycle, treat and dispose of the printing devices it produces,
and in some instances, historical waste equipment it holds, is not shown above due to the lack of historical
data necessary to project future dates of payment. At December 31, 2007, the Company’s estimated
liability for this obligation was a current liability of $1 million and a long-term liability of $27 million. These
amounts were included in Accrued liabilities and Other liabilities, respectively, on the Consolidated
Statement of Financial Position. Refer to the “Risk Factors” section in Part I, Item 1A of this report for
additional information regarding the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive adopted by the
European Union.
