INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT

Item 2.05.   Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

On September 28, 2012, Carlisle Companies Incorporated (the “Company”) approved plans with respect to its Carlisle FoodService Products segment, to close certain manufacturing and distribution facilities, relocate manufacturing previously conducted at these facilities to a third party, relocate distribution previously conducted at these facilities to other Company distribution facilities, and sell the facilities’ remaining assets.

In connection with its determination to close and consolidate these facilities, the Company has estimated that the following pre-tax charges will be incurred in the third and fourth quarters of 2012 (in $ millions):

Cash charges include severance, contract termination, consulting and legal services, and costs to relocate and retrofit plant and equipment.  Non-cash charges include $3.5 million of impairment of long-lived assets and $0.1 million of incremental depreciation expense.

The Company’s disposition plans could result in additional asset impairments, contract termination costs, and other charges depending upon the final outcome of the activities.

Item 2.06.    Material Impairments.

On September 28, 2012, the Company decided to abandon its flameless chafer product line.  The abandonment of the product line will result in a non-cash charge of $2.5 million in the third quarter of 2012 related to the impairment of prepaid royalties related to the product line.

Also see discussion above under “Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.”
