No Benefit Plan (other than a Multiemployer Plan) has any accumulated funding deficiency (as defined in Section 412(a) of the Code). None of the Companies have adopted or plans to adopt any amendments that could reasonably result in a material increase in the cost of providing benefits under the ERISA Plan. With respect to each ERISA Plan (other than a Multiemployer Plan) that is intended to be qualified under Code Section 401(a), (a) the ERISA Plan and any associated trust operationally comply (or as soon as reasonably practicable are corrected to comply) with the applicable requirements of Code Section 401(a); (b) the ERISA Plan and any associated trust have been amended to comply with all such requirements as currently in effect, other than those requirements for which a retroactive amendment can be made within the “remedial amendment period” available under Code Section 401(b) (as extended under Treasury Regulations and other Treasury pronouncements upon which taxpayers may rely); (c) the ERISA Plan and any associated trust have received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service stating that the ERISA Plan qualifies under Code Section 401(a), that the associated trust qualifies under Code Section 501(a) and, if applicable, that any cash or deferred arrangement under the ERISA Plan qualifies under Code Section 401(k), unless the ERISA Plan was first adopted at a time for which the above-described “remedial amendment period” has not yet expired; (d) the ERISA Plan currently satisfies the requirements of Code Section 410(b), subject to any retroactive amendment that may be made within the above-described “remedial amendment period”; and (e) no contribution made to the ERISA Plan is subject to an excise tax under Code Section 4972.

Each Foreign Employee Benefit Plan is in compliance in all material respects with all laws, regulations and rules applicable thereto and the respective requirements of the governing documents for Foreign Employee Benefit Plan. With respect to any Foreign Employee Benefit Plan, reasonable reserves have been established in accordance with local laws or prudent business practice or where required by ordinary accounting practices in the jurisdiction in which Foreign Employee Benefit Plan is maintained.
