_________________________________
(1) | Represents a reasonable estimate of the interest component of rental expense incurred by us. |
(2) | Due to the completion of the IRS audit for our 2006-2008 federal income tax returns in August 2013, we recognized $430 million of other expense, net, as we no longer anticipate collecting amounts from Mondelēz. Additionally, in June 2013, a bill was enacted by the Canadian government, which reduced amounts amortized for income tax purposes. As a result, we recognized $38 million of indemnity income due to the reduction of our long-term liability to Mondelēz. |
