54 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Credit Facilities
In June 2009, the Company elected to amend its domestic syndicated revolving credit facility (as amended
from time to time, the ‘‘Credit Facility’’) that is scheduled to mature in December 2011. In light of the
uncertainties in the macroeconomic environment and resulting capital market dislocations, the Company believed
it was prudent to restructure the Credit Facility to facilitate ongoing access to incremental liquidity. As part of the
amendment, the Company reduced the size of the Credit Facility to the lesser of: (i) $1.5 billion, or (ii) an
amount determined based on eligible domestic accounts receivable and inventory. If the Company elects to
borrow under the Credit Facility, only then and not before, it would be required to pledge its domestic accounts
receivables and, at its option, domestic inventory. As amended, the Credit Facility does not require the Company
to meet any financial covenants unless remaining availability under the Credit Facility is less than $225 million.
In addition, until borrowings are made under the Credit Facility, the Company is able to use its working capital
assets in any capacity in conjunction with other capital market funding alternatives that may be available to the
Company. The Company has never borrowed under this Credit Facility or predecessor syndicated revolving credit
facilities.
Contractual Obligations and Other Purchase Commitments
Summarized in the table below are the Company’s obligations and commitments to make future payments
under long-term debt obligations (assuming earliest possible exercise of put rights by holders), lease obligations,
purchase obligations and tax obligations as of December 31, 2009.
Payments Due by Period
Uncertain
(in millions) Total 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 Timeframe Thereafter
Long-Term Debt Obligations $3,852 $ 531 $604 $405 $ 5 $ 4 $ $2,303
Lease Obligations 668 208 161 109 59 38 93
Purchase Obligations 622 442 123 38 8 11
Tax Obligations 466 125 341
Total Contractual Obligations $5,608 $1,306 $888 $552 $72 $53 $ 341 $2,396
Amounts included represent firm, non-cancelable commitments.
Long-Term Debt Obligations: The Company’s long-term debt obligations, including the current portion of
long-term debt, totaled $3.9 billion at December 31, 2009, compared to $4.1 billion at December 31, 2008. A
table of all outstanding long-term debt securities can be found in Note 4, ‘‘Debt and Credit Facilities,’’ to the
Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Lease Obligations: The Company owns most of its major facilities, but does lease certain office, factory and
warehouse space, land, and information technology and other equipment, principally under non-cancelable
operating leases. At December 31, 2009, future minimum lease obligations, net of minimum sublease rentals,
totaled $668 million. Rental expense, net of sublease income, was $153 million in 2009, $181 million in 2008
and $231 million in 2007.
Purchase Obligations: The Company has entered into agreements for the purchase of inventory, license of
software, promotional activities, and research and development, which are firm commitments and are not
cancelable. At December 31, 2009, the Company’s obligations in connection with these agreements run through
2014, and the total payments expected to be made under these agreements total $622 million during that period.
The Company enters into a number of arrangements for the sourcing of supplies and materials with
take-or-pay obligations. The Company’s obligations with these suppliers run through 2013 and total a minimum
purchase obligation of $161 million during that period. The Company does not anticipate the cancellation of any
of these agreements in the future and estimates that purchases from these suppliers will exceed the minimum
obligations during the agreement periods.
Tax Obligations: The Company has approximately $466 million of unrecognized income tax benefits
relating to multiple tax jurisdictions and tax years. Based on the potential outcome of the Company’s global tax
examinations, the expiration of the statute of limitations for specific jurisdictions, or the continued ability to
satisfy tax incentive obligations, it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits will decrease within
the next 12 months. The associated net tax benefits, which would favorably impact the effective tax rate,
