The table below summarizes the termination benefits accrual balances and utilization by cost type for this action. There were no other exit costs.

Other Actions At December 31, 2016, the Company had an additional restructuring accrual of $11, primarily related to current year actions in the European Food business and prior year actions to reduce manufacturing capacity and headcount in its European Aerosol and Specialty Packaging businesses. The Company expects to pay the European Aerosol and Specialty Packaging liability through 2024 as certain employees have elected to receive payment as a fixed monthly sum over future years. The Company continues to review its supply and demand profile and long-term plans in its businesses, and it is possible that the Company may record additional restructuring charges in the future.
