(1)  Income from continuing operations includes business restructuring and cost reduction actions of $207.7 ($153.2 after-tax) in 2015, a goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge of $310.1 ($308.8 after-tax) in 2014, and business and restructuring and cost reduction plans of $231.6 ($157.9 after-tax) and $327.4 ($222.4 after-tax) in 2013 and 2012, respectively.
(2)  We are party to certain debt guarantees of equity affiliates. Since we have not been required to satisfy the guarantees, nor is it probable that we will, interest expense related to the guaranteed debt is not included in fixed charges.
(3)  The ratio of earnings to fixed charges is determined by dividing earnings, as adjusted, by fixed charges. Fixed charges consist of interest on all indebtedness plus that portion of operating lease rentals representative of the interest factor (deemed to be 21% of operating lease rentals).
