(1) | In connection with our Simplify to Grow Program, settlement losses and other expenses were $5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and $3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. These losses were recorded within benefit plan non-service income on our condensed consolidated statements of earnings.
Employer Contributions: During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we contributed $4 million to our U.S. pension plans and $131 million to our non-U.S. pension plans, including $74 million to plans in the United Kingdom and Ireland. We make contributions to our pension plans in accordance with local funding arrangements and statutory minimum funding requirements. Discretionary contributions are made to the extent that they are tax deductible and do not generate an excise tax liability. As of June 30, 2019, over the remainder of 2019, we plan to make further contributions of approximately $1 million to our U.S. plans and approximately $101 million to our non-U.S. plans. Our actual contributions may be different due to many factors, including changes in tax and other benefit laws, significant differences between expected and actual pension asset performance or interest rates. Multiemployer Pension Plans: The most individually significant multiemployer plan we participated in prior to the second quarter of 2018 was the Bakery and Confectionery Union and Industry International Pension Fund (the "Fund"). Our obligation to contribute to the Fund arose with respect to 8 collective bargaining agreements covering most of our employees represented by the Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco and Grain Millers Union. All of those collective bargaining agreements expired in 2016 and we continued to contribute to the Fund through 2018. During 2018, we executed a complete withdrawal from the Fund and recorded an estimate of the withdrawal liability. On July 11, 2019, we received a withdrawal liability assessment from the Fund totaling $526 million and requiring pro-rata monthly payments over 20 years. To meet this obligation, we will begin payments during the second half of 2019. Within selling, general and administrative expenses, we recorded a $35 million ($26 million net of tax) adjustment in the three months ended June 30, 2019 and a $408 million ($305 million net of tax) estimated charge in the three months ended June 30, 2018, related to the discounted withdrawal liability. As of June 30, 2019, the discounted withdrawal liability was $396 million, with $22 million recorded in other current liabilities and $374 million recorded in long-term other liabilities.
