and any changes in government laws and regulations. Future funding requirements generally increase if the discount rate decreases or if actual asset returns
are lower than expected asset returns, assuming other factors are held constant. Our potential funding requirements are described in Note 13 to our
consolidated financial statements.
Factors which affect future funding requirements for our U.S. defined benefit plans generally affect the required funding for non-U.S. plans. Certain plans
outside the U.S. do not have assets and therefore the obligation is funded as benefits are paid. If local legal authorities increase the minimum funding
requirements for our non-U.S. plans, we could be required to contribute more funds.
