During the first quarter of 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and
Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 were signed into law, which eliminated the favorable income tax treatment of
Medicare Part D Subsidy receipts effective for tax years starting in 2013. As a result of the tax law change, the
Company recorded an $18 million non-cash tax charge to reduce its deferred tax asset associated with Medicare
Part D subsidies currently estimated to be received after 2012.
It is estimated that the net periodic cost for the Postretirement Health Care Benefits Plan in 2012 will include
amortization of the unrecognized net loss and prior service costs, currently included in Accumulated other
comprehensive loss, of $12 million.
The Company has adopted an investment policy for plan assets designed to meet or exceed the expected rate of
return on plan assets assumption. To achieve this, the plan retains professional investment managers that invest plan
assets in equity and fixed income securities and cash. The Company uses long-term historical actual return
experience with consideration of the expected investment mix of the plans’ assets, as well as future estimates of
long-term investment returns, to develop its expected rate of return assumption used in calculating the net periodic
cost and the net retirement healthcare expense. The Company has the following target mixes for these asset classes,
which are readjusted at least periodically, when an asset class weighting deviates from the target mix, with the goal
of achieving the required return at a reasonable risk level:
Target Mix
Asset Category 2011 2010
Equity securities 65% 65%
Fixed income securities 34% 34%
Cash and other investments 1% 1%
