The return on plan assets reflects the weighted-average of the long-term rates of return for the broad
categories of investments held in the Company’s defined benefit pension plans. The expected long-term rate of
return is adjusted when there are fundamental changes in expected returns on the Company’s defined benefit
pension plan’s investments.
The Company’s investment strategy for its defined benefit pension plans is to maximize the long-term rate
of return on plans assets within an acceptable level of risk in order to minimize the cost of providing pension
benefits. The Company’s target asset allocation for 2007 and 2006 is as follows: equities—55%-65%; bonds—
25%-40% and cash and money funds—0%-20%.
The allocation percentage of plan assets follows:
2007 2006

Equity securities and funds .......................................... 56.8% 55.7%
Debt securities and funds ........................................... 31.6 22.5
