(a) The unfavorable change in our U.S. qualified plans’ projected benefit obligations funded status was largely driven by changes in interest rates and
lower than expected asset returns, partially offset by plan contributions of $2.0 billion.
(b) The U.S. supplemental (non-qualified) pension plans are not generally funded and these obligations, which are substantially greater than the annual
cash outlay for these liabilities, are paid from cash generated from operations.
(c) The favorable change in our international plans’ projected benefit obligations funded status was largely driven by changes in actuarial assumptions,
partially offset by the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the U.K. pound and euro. Outside the U.S., in general, we fund our defined benefit plans
to the extent that tax or other incentives exist and we have accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet to reflect those plans that are not
fully funded.
(d) The unfavorable change in our postretirement plans’ accumulated benefit obligations (ABO) funded status was largely driven by changes in
actuarial assumptions.
(e) For the U.S. and international pension plans, the benefit obligation is the projected benefit obligation. For the postretirement plans, the benefit
obligation is the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation. The ABO for all of our U.S. qualified pension plans was $13.8 billion in 2011 and
$12.0 billion in 2010. The ABO for our U.S. supplemental (non-qualified) pension plans was $1.2 billion in both 2011 and 2010. The ABO for our
international pension plans was $8.3 billion in 2011 and $8.1 billion in 2010.
(f) The U.S. qualified pension plans loan securities to other companies. Such securities may be onward loaned, sold or pledged by the other
companies, but they may be required to be returned in a short period of time. We also require cash collateral from these companies and a
maintenance margin of 103% of the fair value of the collateral relative to the fair value of the loaned securities. As of December 31, 2011, the fair
value of collateral received was $2 million and, as of December 31, 2010, the fair value of collateral received was $581 million. The securities
loaned continue to be included in the table above in Fair value of plan assets, and the securities-lending program for the pension plans will be
discontinued in 2012.
