This excerpt taken from the DIS 10-K filed Nov 21, 2007.

Plan Contributions

During fiscal 2007, the Company contributed $390 million and $26 million to its pension and postretirement medical plans, respectively, which included discretionary contributions above the minimum requirements for the pension plans. Based on current actuarial projections, the Company anticipates that the funded status of the pension plans will be sufficient so that the Company will not be required to make additional contributions during fiscal 2008 under the funding regulations associated with the Pension Protection Act of 2006 (PPA). However, final funding requirements for fiscal 2008 will be determined based on our January 1, 2008 funding actuarial valuation. Additionally, the Company may also choose to make discretionary contributions above the minimum requirements. The Company anticipates contributing approximately $30 million to post retirement medical and other pension plans not subject to the PPA.

Plan Contributions

During fiscal 2006, the Company contributed $367 million and $33 million to its pension and postretirement medical plans, respectively, which included voluntary contributions above the minimum requirements for the pension plans. Based on the January 1, 2006 funding valuation, the Company is not required to make any contributions to its pension plans during fiscal 2007. The Company may make additional contributions into its pension plans in fiscal 2007 depending on how the funded status of those plans change and as we gain more clarity with respect to the Pension Protection Act of 2006 (PPA) that was signed into law on August 17, 2006. The United States Treasury Department is in the process of developing implementation guidance for the PPA; however, it is likely the PPA will accelerate minimum funding requirements beginning in fiscal 2009. The Company may choose to pre-fund some of this anticipated funding.
