(1) The present value of accumulated benefit was calculated based on the following assumptions which were used in the December 31, 2007 disclosure for the Retirement Income Plan and the Benefits Equalization Plan:

 

   

65% lump sum utilization for the Retirement Income Plan and 100% lump sum utilization for the Benefits Equalization Plan

 

   

6.75% discount rate for annuities and 5.75% discount rate for lump sums

 

   

the RP 2000 mortality table projected to 2015 for annuities

 

   

the 2008 lump sum mortality table under IRC Section 417(e)(3) (combined annuitant and nonannuitant RP 2000 mortality table with projections blended 50% male/50% female) for lump sums.

 

     These assumptions are the same as those disclosed in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Except for Mr. Cornelius, payments are assumed to begin at age 60, the earliest age that employees are eligible for an unreduced pension. Mr. Cornelius is assumed to begin his pension at age 65, the earliest age that he would be eligible for an unreduced pension. The actual benefit received will vary based on a number of factors including final pay, years of service and interest rates at the time of retirement. No pension payments were made to any Named Executive Officer under these plans in 2007.

 

(2) Does not include the value of participation in Italian government pension system. This government-mandated pension system compelled company contributions to the Italian government while Mr. Andreotti was in Italy and it is legally obliged to provide a pension benefit to Mr. Andreotti.

 

(3) Mr. Andreotti and Dr. Sigal have met the requirements for early retirement.
