Patents and Trademarks
We own, or are licensed under, numerous patents throughout the world relating to products, services and methods of
manufacturing. Patents developed while under contract with the U.S. Government may be subject to use by the U.S. Government.
We also own or license active trademark registrations and pending trademark applications in the U.S. and in various foreign
countries or regions, as well as trade names and service marks. While our intellectual property rights in the aggregate are important

these trademarks, trade names and service marks are used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and other reports, including:

Environmental Considerations
Our operations are subject to numerous laws and regulations designed to protect the environment. Compliance with these laws and
expenditures for environmental control facilities has not had a material effect on our capital expenditures, earnings or competitive
position. Additional information regarding environmental matters is contained in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements
on page 74 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
We do not believe that existing or pending climate change legislation, regulation, or international treaties or accords are reasonably
likely to have a material effect in the foreseeable future on our business or markets nor on our results of operations, capital
expenditures or financial position. We will continue to monitor emerging developments in this area.
Employees
At December 28, 2013, we had approximately 32,000 employees.
