(1) Includes settlement losses of $2 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and $3 million in the three months and $12 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 related to employees who elected to take lump-sum payments in connection with our 2012-2014 Restructuring Program. These costs are reflected within asset impairments and exit costs on the condensed consolidated statement of earnings and within the charges for severance and related costs in Note 6, Restructuring Programs – 2012-2014 Restructuring Program. In the nine months ended September 30, 2013, these were partially offset by $21 million of gains due to improvements in current market rates for routine settlement losses.
