[1] | (a)The 2013 dismissals reported in the table above include the dismissal of approximately 12 thousand claims, that were considered pending inactive claims. There were no inactive claims dismissed during 2014. Inactive claims represent pending claims in Mississippi filed in 2004 or prior, which have been excluded from our asbestos measurement because the plaintiffs cannot demonstrate a significant compensable loss. As such, management believes these claims have little-to-no value.

- Definition In the third quarter of each year, we conduct our asbestos remeasurement to review and update the underlying assumptions used in our asbestos liability and related asset estimates and to determine the cost the Company estimates will be incurred to resolve all pending claims, as well as unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years. In each remeasurement, the underlying assumptions are updated based on actual experience since the previous annual remeasurement and we reassess the appropriate reference period of years of experience used in determining each assumption and our expectations regarding future conditions, including inflation. + References No definition available. + Details
