Libbey Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1.
Description of the Business

Libbey is a leading global manufacturer and marketer of glass tableware products. We believe we have the largest manufacturing, distribution and service network among glass tableware manufacturers in the Western Hemisphere, in addition to supplying to key markets throughout the world. We produce glass tableware in five countries and sell to customers in over 100 countries. We design and market, under our Libbey ® , Crisa ® , Royal Leerdam ® , World ® Tableware, Syracuse ® China and Crisal Glass ® brand names (among others), an extensive line of high-quality glass tableware, ceramic dinnerware, metal flatware, hollowware and serveware items for sale primarily in the foodservice, retail and business-to-business markets. Our sales force presents our products to the global marketplace in a coordinated fashion. We own and operate two glass tableware manufacturing plants in the United States as well as glass tableware manufacturing plants in the Netherlands (Libbey Holland), Portugal (Libbey Portugal), China (Libbey China) and Mexico (Libbey Mexico). In addition, we import products from overseas in order to complement our line of manufactured items. The combination of manufacturing and procurement allows us to compete in the global tableware market by offering an extensive product line at competitive prices.

Our website can be found at www.libbey.com . We make available, free of charge, at this website all of our reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including our annual report on Form 10-K, our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, our current reports on Form 8-K, as well as amendments to those reports. These reports are made available on our website as soon as reasonably practicable after their filing with, or furnishing to, the Securities and Exchange Commission and can also be found at www.sec.gov .

Our shares are traded on the NYSE MKT exchange under the ticker symbol LBY.

Significant Accounting Policies

See our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 for a description of significant accounting policies not listed below.

Basis of Presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include Libbey Inc. and its majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively, Libbey or the Company). Our fiscal year end is December 31 st . All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from management’s estimates.

Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations

Net sales in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations include revenue earned when products are shipped and title and risk of loss have passed to the customer. Revenue is recorded net of returns, discounts and incentives offered to customers. Cost of sales includes cost to manufacture and/or purchase products, warehouse, shipping and delivery costs and other costs.

Foreign Currency Translation

Assets and liabilities of non-U.S. subsidiaries that operate in a local currency environment, where that local currency is the functional currency, are translated to U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, with the resulting translation adjustments directly recorded to a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Income and expense accounts are translated at average exchange rates during the year. The effect of exchange rate changes on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency is recorded in other income (expense).

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax attribute carry-forwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification™ (FASB ASC) Topic 740, “Income Taxes,”

10


requires that a valuation allowance be recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined separately for each tax jurisdiction in which we conduct our operations or otherwise incur taxable income or losses. In the United States, Portugal and the Netherlands, we have recorded valuation allowances against our deferred income tax assets. See note 6 for further discussion.

Stock-Based Compensation Expense

We account for stock-based compensation expense in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation,” and FASB ASC Topic 505-50, “Equity — Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”. Stock-based compensation cost is measured based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. FASB ASC Topics 718 and 505-50 apply to all of our outstanding unvested stock-based payment awards. Stock-based compensation expense charged to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations is as follows:
 
 
Three months ended June 30,
 
Six months ended June 30,
(dollars in thousands)

New Accounting Standards

In February 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” (ASU 2013-02). ASU 2013-02 requires companies to present, either in a note or parenthetically on the face of the financial statements, the effect of amounts reclassified from each component of accumulated other comprehensive income based on its source and the income statement line items affected by the reclassification. This update is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. Required interim disclosures have been made in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at June 30, 2013.

Amended and Restated ABL Credit Agreement

Libbey Glass and Libbey Europe entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of February 8, 2010 and amended as of April 29, 2011 and May 18, 2012 (as amended, the ABL Facility), with a group of four financial institutions. The ABL Facility provides for borrowings of up to $100.0 million , subject to certain borrowing base limitations, reserves and outstanding letters of credit.

All borrowings under the ABL Facility are secured by:
a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the existing and future personal property of Libbey Glass and its domestic subsidiaries (Credit Agreement Priority Collateral);
a first-priority security interest in:
100 percent of the stock of Libbey Glass and 100 percent of the stock of substantially all of Libbey Glass’s present and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries;
100 percent of the non-voting stock of substantially all of Libbey Glass’s first-tier present and future foreign subsidiaries; and
65 percent of the voting stock of substantially all of Libbey Glass’s first-tier present and future foreign subsidiaries
a first priority security interest in substantially all proceeds and products of the property and assets described above; and
a second-priority security interest in substantially all of the owned real property, equipment and fixtures in the United States of Libbey Glass and its domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens (Notes Priority Collateral).

Additionally, borrowings by Libbey Europe under the ABL Facility are secured by:
a first-priority lien on substantially all of the existing and future real and personal property of Libbey Europe and its Dutch subsidiaries; and
a first-priority security interest in:
100 percent of the stock of Libbey Europe and 100 percent of the stock of substantially all of the Dutch subsidiaries; and
100 percent (or a lesser percentage in certain circumstances) of the outstanding stock issued by the first-tier foreign subsidiaries of Libbey Europe and its Dutch subsidiaries.

Swingline borrowings are limited to $15.0 million , with swingline borrowings for Libbey Europe being limited to the US equivalent of $7.5 million . Loans comprising each CBFR (CB Floating Rate) Borrowing, including each Swingline Loan, bear interest at the CB Floating Rate plus the Applicable Rate, and euro-denominated swingline borrowings (Eurocurrency Loans) bear interest calculated at the Netherlands swingline rate, as defined in the ABL Facility. The Applicable Rates for CBFR Loans and Eurocurrency Loans vary depending on our aggregate remaining availability. The Applicable Rates for CBFR Loans and

13


Eurocurrency Loans were 0.50 percent  and 1.50 percent , respectively, at June 30, 2013 . Libbey pays a quarterly Commitment Fee, as defined by the ABL Facility, on the total credit provided under the ABL Facility. The Commitment Fee was 0.375 percent at June 30, 2013 . No compensating balances are required by the Agreement. The Agreement does not require compliance with a fixed charge coverage ratio covenant, unless aggregate unused availability falls below $10.0 million . If our aggregate unused ABL availability were to fall below $10.0 million , the fixed charge coverage ratio requirement would be 1 :00 to 1:00. Libbey Glass and Libbey Europe have the option to increase the ABL Facility by $25.0 million . There were borrowings of $9.8 million under the facility at June 30, 2013 . There were no Libbey Glass or Libbey Europe borrowings under the facility at December 31, 2012 . Interest is payable on the last day of the interest period, which can range from one month to six months depending on the maturity of each individual borrowing on the facility.

The borrowing base under the ABL Facility is determined by a monthly analysis of the eligible accounts receivable and inventory. The borrowing base is the sum of (a)  85 percent of eligible accounts receivable and (b) the lesser of (i)  85 percent of the net orderly liquidation value (NOLV) of eligible inventory, (ii)  65 percent of eligible inventory, or (iii) $75.0 million .

The available total borrowing base is offset by rent reserves totaling $0.7 million and natural gas reserves totaling $0.1 million as of June 30, 2013 . The ABL Facility also provides for the issuance of $30.0 million of letters of credit, which are applied against the $100.0 million limit. At June 30, 2013 , we had $8.7 million in letters of credit outstanding under the ABL Facility. Remaining unused availability under the ABL Facility was $68.8 million  at June 30, 2013 , compared to $68.6 million under the ABL Facility at December 31, 2012 .

Senior Secured Notes

On May 18, 2012, Libbey Glass closed its offering of the $450.0 million Senior Secured Notes. The notes offering was issued at par and had related fees of approximately $13.2 million . These fees will be amortized to interest expense over the life of the notes.

The Senior Secured Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated May 18, 2012 (Notes Indenture), between Libbey Glass, the Company, the domestic subsidiaries of Libbey Glass listed as guarantors therein (Subsidiary Guarantors and together with the Company, Guarantors), and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (Notes Trustee) and collateral agent. Under the terms of the Notes Indenture, the Senior Secured Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.875 percent per year and will mature on May 15, 2020 . Although the Notes Indenture does not contain financial covenants, the Notes Indenture contains other covenants that restrict the ability of Libbey Glass and the Guarantors to, among other things:

incur, assume or guarantee additional indebtedness;
pay dividends, make certain investments or other restricted payments;
create liens;
enter into affiliate transactions;
merge or consolidate, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all the assets of Libbey Glass and the Guarantors; and
transfer or sell assets.

The Notes Indenture provides for customary events of default. In the case of an event of default arising from bankruptcy or insolvency as defined in the Notes Indenture, all outstanding Senior Secured Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other event of default under the Notes Indenture occurs or is continuing, the Notes Trustee or holders of at least 25 percent in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Senior Secured Notes may declare all the Senior Secured Notes to be due and payable immediately.

The Senior Secured Notes and the related guarantees under the Notes Indenture are secured by (i) first priority liens on the Notes Priority Collateral and (ii) second priority liens on the Credit Agreement Priority Collateral.

Prior to May 15, 2015, we may redeem in the aggregate up to 35 percent of the Senior Secured Notes with the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings at a redemption price of 106.875 percent of the principal amount, provided that at least 65 percent of the original principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes must remain outstanding after each redemption and that each redemption occurs within 90 days of the closing of the equity offering. In addition, prior to May 15, 2015, but not more than once in any twelve -month period, we may redeem up to 10 percent of the Senior Secured Notes at a redemption price of 103 percent plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Senior Secured Notes are redeemable at our option, in whole or in part, at any time on or after May 15, 2015 at set redemption prices together with accrued and unpaid interest.

On May 7, 2013, Libbey Glass redeemed an aggregate principal amount of $45.0 million of the Senior Secured Notes in accordance with the terms of the Notes Indenture. Pursuant to the terms of the Notes Indenture, the redemption price for the

14


Senior Secured Notes was 103 percent of the principal amount of the redeemed Senior Secured Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. At completion of the redemption, the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes outstanding was $405.0 million . In conjunction with this redemption, we recorded $2.5 million of expense, representing $1.3 million for an early call premium and $1.2 million for the write off of a pro rata amount of financing fees.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, loss on redemption of debt included charges of $23.6 million for an early call premium and $11.0 million for the write off of the remaining financing fees and discounts from the former Senior Secured Notes.

We had an Interest Rate Agreement (Old Rate Agreement) in place through April 18, 2012 with respect to $80.0 million of our former Senior Secured Notes as a means to manage our fixed to variable interest rate ratio. The Old Rate Agreement effectively converted this portion of our long-term borrowings from fixed rate debt to variable rate debt. The variable interest rate for our borrowings related to the Old Rate Agreement at April 18, 2012, excluding applicable fees, was 7.79 percent . Total remaining Senior Secured Notes not covered by the Old Rate Agreement had a fixed interest rate of 10.0 percent  per year. On April 18, 2012, the swap was called at fair value. We received proceeds of $3.6 million . During the second quarter of 2012, $0.1 million of the carrying value adjustment on debt related to the Old Rate Agreement was amortized into interest expense. Upon the refinancing of the former Senior Secured Notes, the remaining unamortized balance of $3.5 million of the carrying value adjustment on debt related to the Old Rate Agreement was recognized as a gain in the loss on redemption of debt on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

On June 18, 2012, we entered into an Interest Rate Agreement (New Rate Agreement) with respect to $45.0 million of our Senior Secured Notes as a means to manage our fixed to variable interest rate ratio. The New Rate Agreement effectively converts this portion of our long-term borrowings from fixed rate debt to variable rate debt. Prior to May 15, 2015, but not more than once in any twelve -month period, the counterparty may call up to 10 percent of the New Rate Agreement at a call price of 103 percent . The New Rate Agreement is callable at the counterparty’s option, in whole or in part, at any time on or after May 15, 2015 at set call premiums. The variable interest rate for our borrowings related to the New Rate Agreement at June 30, 2013 , excluding applicable fees, is 5.5 percent . The New Rate Agreement expires on May 15, 2020. Total remaining Senior Secured Notes not covered by the New Rate Agreement have a fixed interest rate of 6.875 percent per year through May 15, 2020. If the counterparty to this New Rate Agreement were to fail to perform, this New Rate Agreement would no longer afford us a variable rate. However, we do not anticipate non-performance by the counterparty. The interest rate swap counterparty was rated A+ , as of June 30, 2013 , by Standard and Poor’s.

The fair value of the Old and New Rate Agreements are based on the market standard methodology of netting the discounted expected future fixed cash receipts and the discounted future variable cash payments. The variable cash payments are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observed market interest rate forward curves. See note 9 for further discussion.

Promissory Note

In September 2001, we issued a $2.7 million promissory note at an interest rate of 6.0 percent in connection with the purchase of our Laredo, Texas warehouse facility. At June 30, 2013 , we had $0.8 million outstanding on the promissory note. Principal and interest with respect to the promissory note are paid monthly.

Notes Payable

We have an overdraft line of credit for a maximum of €1.0 million . At June 30, 2013 , there were no borrowings under the facility, which has an interest rate of 5.80 percent . Interest with respect to the note is paid monthly.

RMB Loan Contract

On January 23, 2006, Libbey Glassware (China) Co., Ltd. (Libbey China), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Libbey Inc., entered into an RMB Loan Contract (RMB Loan Contract) with China Construction Bank Corporation Langfang Economic Development Area Sub-Branch (CCB). Pursuant to the RMB Loan Contract, CCB agreed to lend to Libbey China RMB 250.0 million , or the equivalent of approximately $40.5 million , for the construction of our production facility in China and the purchase of related equipment, materials and services. The loan has a term of eight years and bears interest at a variable rate as announced by the People’s Bank of China. As of the date of the initial advance under the Loan Contract, the annual interest rate was 5.51 percent , and as of June 30, 2013 , the annual interest rate was 5.90 percent . As of June 30, 2013 , the outstanding balance was RMB 60.0 million (approximately $9.7 million ) which is due on January 20, 2014. Interest is payable quarterly. The obligations of Libbey China are secured by a guarantee executed by Libbey Inc. for the benefit of CCB and a mortgage lien on the Libbey China facility.

BES Euro Line

In January 2007, Crisal (Libbey Portugal) entered into a seven -year €11.0 million line of credit (approximately $14.3 million ) with Banco Espírito Santo, S.A. (BES). The $4.3 million outstanding at June 30, 2013 , was the U.S. dollar equivalent of the €3.3 million outstanding under the line at an interest rate of 5.32 percent . Payment of principal in the amount of €3.3 million (approximately $4.3 million ) is due in December 2013. Interest with respect to the line is paid semi-annually.

AICEP Loan

In July 2012, Libbey Portugal entered into a loan agreement with Agencia para Investmento Comercio Externo de Portugal, EPE (AICEP), the Portuguese Agency for investment and external trade. The amount of the loan is €1.0 million (approximately $1.2 million ) and has an interest rate of 0.0 percent . Semi-annual installments of principal are due beginning in January 2016 through the maturity date of July 2018.

Fair Value of Borrowings

The fair value of our debt has been calculated based on quoted market prices (Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy) for the same or similar issues. Our $405.0 million Senior Secured Notes had an estimated fair value of $423.2 million at June 30, 2013 . At December 31, 2012 , the $450.0 million outstanding Senior Secured Notes had an estimated fair value of $488.3 million . The fair value of the remainder of our debt approximates carrying value at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 due to variable rates.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Historically, cash flows generated from operations, cash on hand and our borrowing capacity under our ABL Facility have enabled us to meet our cash requirements, including capital expenditures and working capital requirements. At June 30, 2013 we had $9.8 million borrowings under our ABL Facility and $8.7 million of letters of credit issued under that facility. As a result, we had $68.8 million  of unused availability remaining under the ABL Facility at June 30, 2013 . In addition, we had $10.5 million of cash on hand at June 30, 2013 .

Based on our operating plans and current forecast expectations, we anticipate that our level of cash on hand, cash flows from operations and our borrowing capacity under our ABL Facility will provide sufficient cash availability to meet our ongoing liquidity needs.

Restructuring Charges

Capacity Realignment

In February 2013, we announced our plans to discontinue production of certain glassware in North America and reduce manufacturing capacity at our Shreveport, Louisiana manufacturing facility. As a result, on May 30, 2013, we ceased production of certain glassware in North America, discontinued the use of a furnace at our Shreveport, Louisiana

16


manufacturing plant and began relocating a portion of the production from the idled furnace to our Toledo, Ohio and Monterrey, Mexico locations. These activities are all within the Americas segment and are expected to be completed by the end of the first quarter of 2014. In connection with this plan, we expect to incur pretax charges in the range of approximately $8.0 million to $10.0 million . This estimate consists of: (i) up to $4.0 million in fixed asset impairment charges, (ii) up to $2.0 million in severance and other employee related costs and (iii) up to $4.0 million in production transfer expenses. We expect approximately $5.5 million of the pretax charge to result in cash expenditures, most of which is expected to be paid throughout the remainder of 2013. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded a pretax charge of $1.0 million and $5.9 million respectively, which included employee termination costs, fixed asset impairment charges and depreciation expense. Employee termination costs include severance, medical benefits and outplacement services for the terminated employees. The write-down of fixed assets is to adjust certain machinery and equipment to the estimated fair market value.

The following table summarizes the pretax charge incurred for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013:

Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate was 27.8 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to (23.3) percent for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Our effective tax rate differs from the United States statutory tax rate primarily due to valuation allowances, earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, accruals related to uncertain tax positions and tax planning structures. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 , we had $1.0 million and $1.5 million , respectively, of gross unrecognized tax benefits, exclusive of interest and penalties. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded no additional income tax benefit. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded an income tax benefit, exclusive of interest and penalties, of $0.5 million due to the reversal of an accrual for an uncertain tax position that expired under the statute of limitations.

FASB ASC 740-20, "Income Taxes - Intraperiod Tax Allocation," requires that the provision for income taxes be allocated between continuing operations and other categories of earnings (such as discontinued operations or other comprehensive income) for each tax jurisdiction. In periods in which there is a year-to-date pre-tax loss from continuing operations and pre-tax income in other categories of earnings, the tax provision is first allocated to the other categories of earnings. A related tax benefit is then recorded in continuing operations. A tax benefit of $4.2 million was recorded in our income tax provision for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2012. There was no similar benefit recorded for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2013.

Our current and future provision for income taxes for 2013 is impacted by valuation allowances. In the United States, the Netherlands and Portugal, we have recorded valuation allowances against our deferred income tax assets. We did not change our conclusion related to entities with a recorded valuation allowance for the six months ended June 30, 2013, or the six months

17


ended June 30, 2012. In assessing the need for recording or releasing a valuation allowance, we weigh all available positive and negative evidence. Examples of the evidence we consider are cumulative losses in recent years, losses expected in early future years, a history of potential tax benefits expiring unused, prudent and feasible tax planning strategies that could be implemented, and whether there was an unusual, infrequent or extraordinary item to be considered. Based on our analysis of all available evidence, we intend to maintain these allowances until it is more likely than not that the deferred income tax assets will be realized. We will continue to monitor and assess the need for these allowances quarterly in each jurisdiction.

Cash paid for income taxes has increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 due to net operating loss carryforwards being fully utilized in 2012 in China and timing of payments in Mexico.

Pension and Non-pension Postretirement Benefits

We have pension plans covering the majority of our employees. Benefits generally are based on compensation for salaried employees and job grade and length of service for hourly employees. Our policy is to fund pension plans such that sufficient assets will be available to meet future benefit requirements. In addition, we have an unfunded supplemental employee retirement plan (SERP) that covers certain salaried U.S.-based employees of Libbey hired before January 1, 2006. The U.S. pension plans cover the salaried U.S.-based employees of Libbey hired before January 1, 2006 and most hourly U.S.-based employees (excluding employees hired at Shreveport after 2008 and at Toledo after September 30, 2010). Effective January 1, 2013, we ceased annual company contribution credits to the cash balance accounts in our Libbey U.S. Salaried Pension Plan and SERP. The non-U.S. pension plans cover the employees of our wholly owned subsidiaries in the Netherlands and Mexico. The plan in Mexico is not funded.

During the second quarter of 2013 and the first half of 2012, we incurred pension settlement charges totaling $0.7 million and $0.5 million , respectively. The pension settlement charges were triggered by excess lump sum distributions, which required us to record unrecognized gains and losses in our pension plan accounts. We have contributed $2.1 million and $2.8 million of cash into our pension plans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 , respectively. Pension contributions for the remainder of 2013 are estimated to be $3.6 million .

We provide certain retiree health care and life insurance benefits covering our U.S and Canadian salaried and non-union hourly employees hired before January 1, 2004 and a majority of our union hourly employees (excluding employees hired at Shreveport after 2008 and at Toledo after September 30, 2010). Employees are generally eligible for benefits upon retirement and completion of a specified number of years of creditable service. Effective January 1, 2013, we ended our existing healthcare benefit for salaried retirees age 65 and older and are now providing a Retiree Health Reimbursement Arrangement (RHRA) that supports retirees in purchasing a Medicare plan that meets their needs. Also effective January 1, 2013, we reduced the maximum life insurance benefit for salaried retirees to $10,000 . Benefits for most hourly retirees are determined by collective bargaining. The U.S. non-pension postretirement plans cover the hourly and salaried U.S.-based employees of Libbey (excluding those mentioned above). The non-U.S. non-pension postretirement plans cover the retirees and active employees of Libbey who are located in Canada. The postretirement benefit plans are not funded.

(1) The effect of employee stock options and restricted stock units, 437,680 and 424,483 shares for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, were anti-dilutive and thus not included in the earnings per share calculation. This amount would have been dilutive if not for the net loss.

When applicable, diluted shares outstanding include the dilutive impact of restricted stock units. Diluted shares also include the impact of in-the-money employee stock options, which are calculated based on the average share price for each fiscal period using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the tax-effected proceeds that hypothetically would be received from the exercise of all in-the-money options are assumed to be used to repurchase shares.

Derivatives

We utilize derivative financial instruments to hedge certain interest rate risks associated with our long-term debt, commodity price risks associated with forecasted future natural gas requirements and foreign exchange rate risks associated with transactions denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar. Most of these derivatives, except for the foreign currency contracts, qualify for hedge accounting since the hedges are highly effective, and we have designated and documented contemporaneously the hedging relationships involving these derivative instruments. While we intend to continue to meet the conditions for hedge accounting, if hedges do not qualify as highly effective or if we do not believe that forecasted transactions would occur, the changes in the fair value of the derivatives used as hedges would be reflected in our earnings. All of these contracts were accounted for under FASB ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging.”

Interest Rate Swaps as Fair Value Hedges

On June 18, 2012, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement (New Rate Agreement) with a notional amount of $45.0 million that is to mature in 2020. The New Rate Agreement was executed in order to convert a portion of the Senior Secured Notes fixed rate debt into floating rate debt and maintain a capital structure containing fixed and floating rate debt.

Upon the refinancing of the former Senior Secured Notes, the remaining unamortized balance of the carrying value adjustment on debt related to the Old Rate Agreement was recognized as a gain in the loss on redemption of debt on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, refer to the Borrowings footnote for further discussion.

Our fixed-to-floating interest rate swap is designated and qualifies as a fair value hedge. The change in the fair value of the derivative instrument related to the future cash flows (gain or loss on the derivative), as well as the offsetting change in the fair value of the hedged long-term debt attributable to the hedged risk, are recognized in current earnings. We include the gain or loss on the hedged long-term debt in other income (expense), along with the offsetting loss or gain on the related interest rate swap on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Commodity Futures Contracts Designated as Cash Flow Hedges

We use commodity futures contracts related to forecasted future North American natural gas requirements. The objective of these futures contracts and other derivatives is to limit the fluctuations in prices paid due to price movements in the underlying commodity. We consider our forecasted natural gas requirements in determining the quantity of natural gas to hedge. We combine the forecasts with historical observations to establish the percentage of forecast eligible to be hedged, typically ranging from 40 percent to 70 percent of our anticipated requirements, up to eighteen months in the future. The fair values of these instruments are determined from market quotes. As of June 30, 2013 , we had commodity contracts for 1,550,000  million British Thermal Units (BTUs) of natural gas. At December 31, 2012 , we had commodity contracts for 2,400,000  million BTUs of natural gas.

All of our natural gas derivatives qualify and are designated as cash flow hedges at June 30, 2013 . Hedge accounting is applied only when the derivative is deemed to be highly effective at offsetting changes in fair values or anticipated cash flows of the hedged item or transaction. For hedged forecasted transactions, hedge accounting is discontinued if the forecasted transaction is no longer probable to occur, and any previously deferred gains or losses would be recorded to earnings immediately. Changes in the effective portion of the fair value of these hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). The ineffective portion of the change in the fair value of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge is recognized in current earnings. As the natural gas contracts mature, the accumulated gains (losses) for the respective contracts are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to current expense in cost of sales in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. We recognized in the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 $0.3 million of ineffectiveness in Other Income (Expense) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for certain contracts at our Mexico facility. This ineffectiveness was related to a change in pricing caused by the Mexican government instituting a fixed surcharge. The ineffectiveness is not expected to continue so we have continued to consider the contracts effective as appropriate under FASB ASC 815 "Derivatives and Hedging." We paid (received) additional cash of $(0.3) million and $1.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 , respectively, and a nil amount and $3.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, due to the difference between the fixed unit rate of our natural gas contracts and the variable unit rate of our natural gas cost from suppliers. Based on our current valuation, we estimate that accumulated losses currently carried in accumulated other comprehensive loss that will be reclassified into earnings over the next twelve months will result in $0.1 million of loss in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Currency Contracts

Our foreign currency exposure arises from transactions denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar primarily associated with our Canadian dollar denominated accounts receivable. We enter into a series of foreign currency contracts to sell Canadian dollars. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 , we had contracts for C$7.9 million and C$14.8 million , respectively. The fair values of these instruments are determined from market quotes. The values of these derivatives will change over time as cash receipts and payments are made and as market conditions change.

Gains (losses) for derivatives that were not designated as hedging instruments are recorded in current earnings as follows:
 
 
 
Three months ended June 30,
 
Six months ended June 30,

We do not believe we are exposed to more than a nominal amount of credit risk in our interest rate swap, natural gas hedges and currency contracts as the counterparties are established financial institutions. The counterparty for the New Rate Agreement is rated A+ and the counterparties for the other derivative agreements are rated BBB+ or better as of June 30, 2013 , by Standard and Poor’s.

Segments

Effective January 1, 2013, we revised our reporting segments to align with our previously announced regionally focused organizational structure which we believe enables us to better serve customers across the globe. Under this structure, we now report financial results for the Americas; Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA); and Other. In addition, sales and segment EBIT reflect end market reporting pursuant to which sales and related costs are included in segment EBIT based on the geographical destination of the sale. The revised segment results do not affect any previously reported consolidated financial results. Our two reportable segments are defined below. Our operating segments that do not meet the criteria for reportable segments are disclosed as Other.

Americas—includes worldwide sales of manufactured and sourced glass tableware having an end market destination in North and South America.

EMEA—includes worldwide sales of manufactured and sourced glass tableware having an end market destination in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

Other —includes worldwide sales of manufactured and sourced glass tableware having an end market destination in Asia Pacific and worldwide sales of sourced ceramic dinnerware, metal tableware, hollowware, and serveware.

Our measure of profit for our reportable segments is Segment Earnings before Interest and Taxes (Segment EBIT) and excludes amounts related to certain items we consider not representative of ongoing operations as well as certain retained corporate costs. We use Segment EBIT, along with net sales and selected cash flow information, to evaluate performance and to allocate resources. Segment EBIT for reportable segments includes an allocation of some corporate expenses based on the costs of services performed.

Certain activities not related to any particular reportable segment are reported within retained corporate costs. These costs include certain headquarter, administrative and facility costs, and other costs that are global in nature and are not allocable to the reporting segments.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in note 2. We do not have any customers who represent 10 percent or more of total sales. Inter-segment sales are consummated at arm’s length and are reflected at end market reporting below.

Fair Value

FASB ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. FASB ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into three broad levels as follows:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 — Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs based on our own assumptions.

The fair values of our commodity futures natural gas contracts and currency contracts are determined using observable market inputs. The fair value of our interest rate agreement is based on the market standard methodology of netting the discounted expected future fixed cash receipts and the discounted future variable cash payments. The variable cash payments are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observed market interest rate forward curves. Since these inputs are observable in active markets over the terms that the instruments are held, the derivatives are classified as Level 2 in the hierarchy. We also evaluate Company and counterparty risk in determining fair values. The commodity futures natural gas contracts, interest rate agreements and currency contracts are hedges of either recorded assets or liabilities or anticipated transactions. Changes in values of the underlying hedged assets and liabilities or anticipated transactions are not reflected in the above table.

Contingencies

We have completed an unclaimed property audit. The property subject to review in this audit process generally included unclaimed wages, vendor payments and customer refunds. State escheat laws generally require entities to report and remit abandoned and unclaimed property. Failure to timely report and remit the property can result in assessments that include interest and penalties, in addition to the payment of the escheat liability itself. At the completion of the audit in the three months ended June 30, 2013, we paid $4.5 million , which resulted in additional expense of $1.8 million in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. $2.7 million of expense was recorded in the third quarter of 2011 and accrued at December 31, 2012.

Item 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report and in our Annual Report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors. Our risk factors are set forth in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Overview

While the Mexican economy appears to have stabilized, the other economies in which we operate continued to be challenging during the second quarter of 2013 and we expect them to remain as such for the balance of the year. The U.S. economy experienced the negative effects of the increased 2.0 percent FICA tax, sequestration and generally uncertain economic environment and unfavorable weather during the first half of 2013. The European economy remains soft, and the rate of economic growth has slowed considerably in China as compared to the first half of 2012. As a result of these factors, our net sales were flat for the second quarter and declined 0.9 percent in the first half of 2013 as compared to the 2012 periods. Despite these conditions and our underutilized capacity in the Americas during the second quarter related to our production realignment and a significant furnace rebuild, we grew our US and Canada foodservice market channel 1.8 percent and saw increased volume in every other region overall and achieved an all-time record for quarterly Adjusted EBITDA of $42.0 million. This improvement of 5.8 percent over $39.7 million in the second quarter of 2012 was a result of our commitment to improving our cost structure while leveraging our leadership positions in key lines of business and strengthening our balance sheet.

Strengthening our balance sheet remains a high priority. We redeemed $45.0 million of our Senior Secured Notes on May 7, 2013. As of June 30, 2013, we had available capacity of $68.8 million under our ABL credit facility, with $9.8 million outstanding under our ABL Facility and $10.5 million in cash on hand.

We continue to successfully implement "Libbey 2015", our comprehensive business strategy launched in the second half of 2012 to improve our financial position and our ability to compete effectively in the market today and into the future. Libbey 2015 is centered on reducing our costs and boosting efficiency, reinforcing our leadership position in key channels, accelerating growth in the Asia Pacific region and reducing our liabilities and the working capital required to operate the core business. In February 2013, we announced our plans to discontinue production of certain glassware in North America and reduce manufacturing capacity at our Shreveport, Louisiana manufacturing facility. On May 30, 2013 we commenced the activities we announced in February and are currently in the process of relocating a portion of the production from Shreveport, Louisiana to our Toledo, Ohio and Monterrey, Mexico locations. These activities are all within the Americas segment and are expected to be completed by the end of the first quarter of 2014. In connection with this plan, we expect to incur a pretax charge in the range of approximately $8.0 million to $10.0 million . Of that amount, we recorded a pretax charge of $1.0 million and $5.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, which included employee termination costs, fixed asset impairment charges and depreciation expense. (See note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a further discussion.)

Effective January 1, 2013, we revised our reporting segments to align with our previously announced regionally focused organizational structure which we believe enables us to better serve customers across the globe. Under this structure, we now report financial results for the Americas; Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA); and Other. In addition, sales and segment EBIT reflect end market reporting pursuant to which sales and related costs are included in segment EBIT based on the geographical destination of the sale. The revised segment results do not affect any previously reported consolidated financial results. Our two reportable segments are defined below. Our operating segments that do not meet the criteria for reportable segments are disclosed as Other.

Americas—includes worldwide sales of manufactured and sourced glass tableware having an end market destination in North and South America.

EMEA—includes worldwide sales of manufactured and sourced glass tableware having an end market destination in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

Other —includes worldwide sales of manufactured and sourced glass tableware having an end market destination in Asia Pacific and worldwide sales of sourced ceramic dinnerware, metal tableware, hollowware, and serveware.

We believe that EBIT, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, all non-GAAP financial measures, are useful metrics for evaluating our financial performance, as they are measures that we use internally to assess our performance. For a reconciliation from net income (loss) to EBIT, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, see the "Adjusted EBITDA" section below in the Discussion of Second Quarter 2013 Compared to Second Quarter 2012 and the Discussion of First Six Months 2013 Compared to First Six Months 2012 and the reasons we believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful.
(2)
The three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 include $1.1 million and $1.7 million, respectively, of accelerated depreciation on fixed assets that were impaired from discontinuing production of certain glassware in North America and reducing manufacturing capacity at our Shreveport, Louisiana, manufacturing facility. (See note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.)
(3)
In addition to item (2) above, the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 include ($0.1) million and $4.2 million, respectively, in charges related to discontinuing production of certain glassware in North America and reducing manufacturing capacity at our Shreveport, Louisiana, manufacturing facility; $1.8 million for abandoned property charges; and $0.7 million of pension settlement charges. (See notes 5, 7 and 15 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.)
(4)
In addition to item (3) above, the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 include a loss of $2.5 million related to the redemption of $45.0 million of Senior Secured Notes in May 2013. The three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012 include $31.1 million for the write-off of unamortized finance fees and discounts and call premium payments on the ABL Facility and $360.0 million of former Senior Secured Notes redeemed in May and June 2012, partially offset by the write-off of the debt carrying value adjustment related to the termination of the $80.0 million interest rate swap. (See note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.)

Discussion of Second Quarter 2013 Compared to Second Quarter 2012
Net Sales
For the quarter ended June 30, 2013 , net sales increased 0.3 percent to $209.9 million , compared to $209.2 million in the year-ago quarter. When adjusted for currency impact, net sales were down 1.1 percent. The increase in net sales was attributable to increased sales of $4.3 million and $3.2 million in EMEA and Other, respectively, offset by a $6.8 million decrease in the Americas.

Net Sales Americas

Net sales in the Americas were $141.8 million , compared to $148.6 million in the second quarter of 2012, a decrease of 4.6 percent (a decrease of 6.1 percent excluding currency fluctuation). The primary contributor was a 7.8 percent decrease in sales within our US and Canadian end market due to weaker retail and business to business sales resulting from mixed point of sale retail results at many major retailers, discontinued items from our realignment of production and weaker volume in the scented candles and floral product lines of our business to business market channel, partially offset by a 1.8 percent increase in shipments to US and Canada foodservice customers. The overall US and Canadian decline was partially offset by a 3.5 percent increase in sales to customers within our Mexican and Latin American end market driven by foodservice and retail sales resulting from increased volume of product sold.

Net Sales EMEA

Net sales in EMEA were $38.0 million , compared to $33.7 million in the second quarter of 2012, an increase of 12.6 percent (an increase of 10.9 percent excluding currency fluctuation). The primary contributor to the increased net sales was increased shipments to EMEA customers as we aggressively pursued business in Europe.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased to an all-time record of $57.5 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to $56.3 million in the prior year quarter. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 27.4 percent in the second quarter of 2013, compared to 26.9 percent in the prior year period. The primary drivers of the $1.1 million gross profit increase were $3.9 million of favorable labor and benefits, a favorable currency impact of $2.5 million, a favorable sales volume and mix of $1.8 million, favorable repairs and maintenance of $1.2 million, and favorable electricity of $1.0 million. Partially offsetting these was $6.6 million attributable to decreased production activity net of volume-related production costs due to a slower than anticipated start up of a significant furnace rebuild, relocation of production as part of our re-alignment, and loss of production due to a power failure, $1.1 million for accelerated depreciation related to the realignment of capacity in the Americas, $0.8 million for direct materials, and $0.7 million for natural gas.

Income From Operations

Income from operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 decreased $1.1 million, to $27.9 million , compared to $29.0 million in the prior year quarter. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales was 13.3 percent for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared to 13.8 percent in the prior year quarter. The decrease in income from operations is the result of a $1.8 million charge related to abandoned property and $0.7 million related to a pension settlement charge. Partially offsetting these were the $1.1 million increase in gross profit (discussed above), a favorable $0.9 million in labor and benefit expenses as a result of the cost reduction activities taken in the second half of 2012 and a favorable $0.3 million in legal and professional fees.

Earnings (Loss) Before Interest and Income Taxes (EBIT)

EBIT for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 increased by $27.1 million, to $25.4 million from $(1.7) million in the second quarter of 2012. EBIT as a percentage of net sales increased to 12.1 percent in the second quarter of 2013, compared to (0.8) percent in the prior year quarter. The increase in EBIT is a result of the second quarter of 2012 including $31.1 million for loss on redemption of debt, as compared to $2.5 million in the second quarter of 2013, partially offset by the decrease in income from operations (discussed above).

Segment EBIT Americas

Segment EBIT increased to $32.5 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to $31.0 million in the second quarter of 2012. Segment EBIT as a percentage of net sales for the Americas increased to 22.9 percent in the second quarter of 2013, compared to 20.9 percent in the prior year period. The primary drivers of the $1.5 million Segment EBIT increase were $3.0 million of favorable labor and benefits, a favorable currency impact of $2.4 million, favorable repairs and maintenance of $1.7 million, and favorable selling, general, administrative and other income (expense) of $0.4 million. Partially offsetting these was $5.9 million attributable to decreased production activity net of volume-related production costs due to a slower than anticipated start up of a significant furnace rebuild, relocation of production as part of our re-alignment, and loss of production due to a power failure.

Segment EBIT EMEA

Segment EBIT increased to $0.6 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2012. Segment EBIT as a percentage of net sales for EMEA increased to 1.5 percent in the second quarter of 2013, compared to 0.9 percent in the prior-year period. The primary driver of the $0.3 million increase in Segment EBIT was a favorable sales volume and mix.

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation & Amortization (EBITDA)

EBITDA increased by $28.5 million in the second quarter 2013, to $37.1 million, compared to $8.6 million in the year-ago quarter. As a percentage of net sales, EBITDA increased to 17.7 percent in the second quarter of 2013, from 4.1 percent in the year-ago quarter. The key contributors to the increase in EBITDA were those factors discussed above under Earnings (Loss) Before Interest and Income Taxes (EBIT) and $1.1 million of accelerated depreciation on certain fixed assets included in the capacity realignment.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA increased by $2.3 million in the second quarter of 2013, to $42.0 million , compared to $39.7 million in the second quarter of 2012. As a percentage of net sales, Adjusted EBITDA was 20.0 percent for the second quarter of 2013, compared to 19.0 percent in the year-ago quarter. The key contributors to the increase in Adjusted EBITDA were those factors

We sometimes refer to data derived from condensed consolidated financial information but not required by GAAP to be presented in financial statements. Certain of these data are considered “non-GAAP financial measures” under Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Regulation G. We believe that certain non-GAAP data provide investors with a more complete understanding of underlying results in our core business and trends. In addition, we use non-GAAP data internally to assess performance. Although we believe that the non-GAAP financial measures presented enhance investors’ understanding of our business and performance, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP.
We define EBIT as net income (loss) before interest expense and income taxes. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure is net income (loss).
We believe that EBIT is an important supplemental measure for investors in evaluating operating performance in that it provides insight into company profitability. Libbey’s senior management uses this measure internally to measure profitability. EBIT also allows for a measure of comparability to other companies with different capital and legal structures, which accordingly may be subject to different interest rates and effective tax rates.
The non-GAAP measure of EBIT does have certain limitations. It does not include interest expense, which is a necessary and ongoing part of our cost structure resulting from debt incurred to expand operations. Because this is a material and recurring item, any measure that excludes it has a material limitation. EBIT may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

The non-GAAP measure of EBITDA does have certain limitations. It does not include interest expense, which is a necessary and ongoing part of our cost structure resulting from debt incurred to expand operations. EBITDA also excludes depreciation and amortization expenses. Because these are material and recurring items, any measure that excludes them has a material limitation. EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. In addition, we use Adjusted EBITDA internally to measure profitability and to set performance targets for managers.
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool. Some of these limitations are:

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debts;
Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations; and
Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Net Income (Loss) and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

We recorded net income of $12.4 million , or $0.57 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2013, compared to a net (loss) of $(10.1) million , or ($0.49) per diluted share, in the year-ago quarter. Net income (loss) as a percentage of net sales was 5.9 percent in the second quarter of 2013, compared to (4.8) percent in the year-ago quarter. The increase in net income (loss) and diluted net income (loss) per share is due to the factors discussed in Earnings (Loss) Before Interest and Income Taxes (EBIT) above and a $1.8 million reduction in interest expense, partially offset by a $6.4 million increase in the provision for income taxes. The reduction in interest expense is primarily the result of lower interest rates resulting from our May 2012 refinancing. The effective tax rate was an expense of 28.2 percent for the second quarter of 2013, compared to a benefit of 12.8 percent in year-ago quarter. The effective tax rate was influenced by jurisdictions with recorded valuation allowances and changes in the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates.

Discussion of First Six Months 2013 Compared to First Six Months 2012

Net Sales

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, net sales decreased 0.9 percent to $393.4 million , compared to $397.1 million in the year-ago period. The decrease in net sales was attributable to decreased sales in the Americas, offset by increased sales in EMEA.

Net Sales Americas

Net sales in the Americas were $265.4 million in the first six months of 2013 compared to $278.3 million in the first six months of 2012, a decrease of 4.6 percent (a 5.7 percent decrease excluding the impact of currency). The primary contributor was an 8.1 percent decrease in sales within our US and Canadian market due to unfavorable weather, the increased 2.0 percent FICA

tax, retail and business to business sales resulting from mixed point of sale retail results at many major retailers, discontinued items from our realignment of production and weaker volume in the scented candles and floral product lines of our business to business market channel. Partially offsetting this was a 4.0 percent increase (a 0.5 percent increase excluding the impact of currency) in sales to customers within our Mexican and Latin American end market driven by foodservice and retail sales resulting from increased shipments and a more favorable mix of product sold.

Net Sales EMEA

Net sales in EMEA were $72.2 million in the first six months of 2013 compared to $64.5 million in the first six months of 2012, an increase of 11.9 percent (10.7 percent excluding the impact of currency). The primary contributor to the increased net sales was increased shipments to EMEA customers.
  
Gross Profit

Gross profit increased to $99.7 million in the first six months of 2013, compared to $99.4 million in the prior year period. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales remained flat as compared to the prior year period. The primary drivers of the $0.3 million gross profit increase were $5.7 million of favorable labor and benefits, a favorable currency impact of $3.6 million, a favorable sales volume and mix of $1.4 million, favorable repairs and maintenance of $3.3 million, and favorable electricity of $0.7 million. Partially offsetting these was $12.1 million attributable to decreased production activity net of volume-related production costs due to a significant furnace rebuild and its slower than anticipated start up, relocation of production as part of our re-alignment, loss of production due to a power failure, and $1.7 million for accelerated depreciation related to the realignment of capacity in the Americas.

Income From Operations

Income from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013 decreased $4.5 million, to $39.4 million , compared to $43.9 million in the prior year period. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales was 10.0 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to 11.1 percent in the prior-year period. The decrease in income from operations is the result of gross profit remaining flat (discussed above), a $4.2 million charge related to discontinuing production of certain glassware in North America and reducing manufacturing capacity at our Shreveport, Louisiana, manufacturing facility and a $0.5 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense is attributable to $1.8 million of abandoned property expense and $0.7 million of pension settlement charges, offset by $2.5 million of favorable labor and benefit expenses as a result of the cost reduction activities taken in the second half of 2012.

Earnings Before Interest and Income Taxes (EBIT)

EBIT for the six months ended June 30, 2013 increased by $23.9 million to $36.5 million from $12.7 million in the first six months of 2012. EBIT as a percentage of net sales increased to 9.3 percent in the first six months of 2013, compared to 3.2 percent in the prior year period. The increase in EBIT is a result of the $28.6 million decrease in loss on redemption of debt, partially offset by a decrease in income from operations (discussed above).

Segment EBIT Americas

Segment EBIT increased to $50.7 million in the first six months of 2013, compared to $46.7 million in the first six months of 2012. Segment EBIT as a percentage of net sales increased to 19.1 percent in the first six months of 2013, compared to 16.8 percent in the prior year period. The primary drivers of the $4.0 million Segment EBIT increase were $4.5 million of favorable labor and benefits, a favorable currency impact of $3.7 million, favorable repairs and maintenance of $3.6 million, favorable electricity of $0.8 million, favorable rent expense of $0.4 million, and $1.8 million favorable impact from changes in selling, general, administrative and other income (expense). Partially offsetting these was $11.0 million attributable to decreased production activity net of volume-related production costs due to a significant furnace rebuild and its subsequent slower than anticipated start up, relocation of production as part of our re-alignment, and loss of production due to a power failure.

Segment EBIT EMEA

Segment EBIT decreased by $0.6 million to ($0.9) million for the first six months of 2013, compared to ($0.3) million in the prior year period. Segment EBIT as a percentage of net sales decreased to (1.3) percent for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to (0.4) percent in the prior year six month period. The primary driver of the $0.6 million decrease in Segment EBIT was the impact of actions taken relative to our Libbey 2015 Strategy to improve cash generation in Europe.

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation & Amortization (EBITDA)

EBITDA increased by $25.4 million in the first six months of 2013, to $58.9 million , compared to $33.5 million in the year-ago period. As a percentage of net sales, EBITDA increased to 15.0 percent in the first six months of 2013, from 8.4 percent in the year ago period. The key contributors to the increase in EBITDA were those factors discussed above under Earnings Before Interest and Income Taxes (EBIT) and $1.7 million of accelerated depreciation on certain fixed assets included in the capacity realignment.

Although we believe that the non-GAAP financial measures presented enhance investors’ understanding of our business and performance, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP.

Net Income (Loss) and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

We recorded net income of $14.4 million , or $0.66 per diluted share, in the first six months of 2013, compared to a net (loss) of $(9.5) million , or $(0.46) per diluted share, in the year ago period. Net income as a percentage of net sales was 3.7 percent in the first six months of 2013, compared to (2.4) percent in the first six months of 2012. The increase in net income and diluted net income per share is generally due to the factors discussed in Earnings Before Interest and Income Taxes (EBIT) above, a $3.8 million reduction in interest expense, partially offset by a $3.7 million increase in the provision for income taxes. The reduction in interest expense is primarily the result of lower interest rates on the Senior Secured Notes. The effective tax rate was 27.8 percent for the first six months of 2013, compared to a negative 23.3 percent in year-ago period. The effective tax rate was influenced by jurisdictions with recorded valuation allowances, changes in the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates and changes in accruals related to uncertain tax positions.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Historically, cash flows generated from operations, cash on hand and our borrowing capacity under our ABL Facility have enabled us to meet our cash requirements, including capital expenditures and working capital requirements. At June 30, 2013 , we had $9.8 million outstanding under our ABL Facility and we had $8.7 million  of letters of credit issued under that facility. As a result, we had $68.8 million  of unused availability remaining under the ABL Facility at June 30, 2013 . In addition, we had $10.5 million of cash on hand at June 30, 2013 .

Based on our operating plans and current forecast expectations, we anticipate that our level of cash on hand, cash flows from operations and our borrowing capacity under our ABL Facility will provide sufficient cash availability to meet our ongoing liquidity needs.

On May 7, 2013, Libbey Glass Inc. redeemed an aggregate principal amount of $45.0 million of our outstanding Senior Secured Notes due 2020. We funded this redemption using cash on hand and borrowings under our ABL Facility.

Working capital is defined as net accounts receivable plus net inventories less accounts payable. See below for further discussion as to the reasons we believe this non-GAAP financial measure is useful.
(5)
Days working capital (DWC) measures the number of days it takes to turn our working capital into cash.
DSO, DIO, DPO and DWC are calculated using the last twelve months' net sales as the denominator and are based on a 365-day year.
We believe that working capital is important supplemental information for investors in evaluating liquidity in that it provides insight into the availability of net current resources to fund our ongoing operations. Working capital is a measure used by management in internal evaluations of cash availability and operational performance.
Working capital is used in conjunction with and in addition to results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Working capital is neither intended to represent nor be an alternative to any measure of liquidity and operational performance recorded under U.S. GAAP. Working capital may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Working capital (as defined above) was $208.1 million at June 30, 2013 , an increase of $35.4 million from December 31, 2012. Our working capital normally increases during the first half of the year due to the seasonality of our business. In particular, inventory normally increases to prepare for seasonally higher orders that typically exceed production levels in the later part of the year. Our increase is primarily due to additional inventories resulting from seasonality and building inventory to service our customers during the re-alignment of the Americas production capacity and for upcoming furnace rebuilds and maintenance activities. The impact of currency decreased total working capital by $0.2 million at June 30, 2013, primarily driven by the euro, with a partial offset by the Mexican peso. As a result of the factors above, working capital as a percentage of last twelve-month net sales increased to 25.3 percent at June 30, 2013 from 20.9 percent at December 31, 2012, but was comparable to the 24.5 percent for the period ended June 30, 2012.

The total borrowings net includes long-term debt due within one year and long-term debt as stated in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We had total borrowings of $430.9 million and $466.1 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 , respectively.

Of our total borrowings, $68.8 million, or approximately 16.0 percent, was subject to variable interest rates at June 30, 2013 . A change of one percentage point in such rates would result in a change in interest expense of approximately $0.7 million on an annual basis.

Included in interest expense is the amortization of discounts and financing fees. These items amounted to $0.5 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $0.9 million and $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures plus proceeds from asset sales and other. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure is net cash provided by (used in) operating activities.
We believe that Free Cash Flow is important supplemental information for investors in evaluating cash flow performance in that it provides insight into the cash flow available to fund such things as discretionary debt service, acquisitions and other strategic investment opportunities. It is a measure of performance we use to internally evaluate the overall performance of the business.
Free Cash Flow is used in conjunction with and in addition to results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Free Cash Flow is neither intended to represent nor be an alternative to the measure of net cash provided by (used in) operating activities recorded under U.S. GAAP. Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Discussion of Second Quarter 2013 vs. Second Quarter 2012 Cash Flow

Our net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was $9.4 million in the second quarter 2013 compared to $(52.4) million in the second quarter of 2012 an improvement of $61.8 million. The major factors impacting cash flow from operations was the favorable cash flow of $83.6 million in reduced pension and non-pension postretirement payments, which included a $79.7 million contribution to the U.S. pension plans in 2012. Partially offsetting this was an unfavorable cash flow impact of income tax payments of $5.6 million, interest payments of $5.6 million, abandoned property payments of $4.5 million, prepaid expenses of $2.5 million, and 2012 interest rate swap proceeds of $3.6 million.

Our net cash used in investing activities was $(10.9) million and $(5.1) million in the second quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively, primarily representing capital expenditures.

Net cash used in financing activities was ($34.1) million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $44.7 million in the year-ago quarter. Second quarter 2013 reflects senior note payments of $45.0 million, offset by $9.8 million in the net borrowings on the ABL credit facility. Second quarter 2012 reflects senior note proceeds of $450.0 million, offset by former senior note payments of $360.0 million, call premium payments of $23.6 million, debt issuance costs of $12.2 million, and other debt payments of $9.6 million.

Our Free Cash Flow was $(1.5) million during the second quarter of 2013, compared to $(57.6) million in the year-ago quarter, an improvement of $56.1 million. The primary contributors to this change were the $61.8 million favorable cash flow impact from operating activities in the current period, as discussed above, offset by an additional $5.5 million in capital expenditures.

Discussion of First Six Months 2013 vs. First Six Months 2012 Cash Flow

Our net cash used in operating activities was $(3.3) million and $(71.5) million in the first six months of 2013 and 2012, respectively, an increase of $68.2 million. The major factors impacting cash flow from operations was the favorable cash flow of $91.1 million in reduced pension and non-pension postretirement payments, which included a $79.7 million contribution to the U.S. pension plans in 2012, and $12.4 million in reduced interest payments. Partially offsetting this was an unfavorable cash flow impact of working capital of $8.5 million, labor related payments of $6.2 million, income tax payments of $6.6 million, abandoned property payments of $4.5 million, prepaid expenses of $4.1 million, and 2012 interest rate swap proceeds of $3.6 million.

Our net cash used in investing activities was $(19.8) million and $(11.4) million in the first six months of 2013 and 2012, respectively, primarily representing capital expenditures.

Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities was $(33.6) million in the first six months of 2013, compared to $44.3 million in the year-ago period. The first half of 2013 reflects senior note payments of $45.0 million and call premium payments of $1.4 million, offset by $9.8 million in the net borrowings on the ABL credit facility and stock options exercised of $3.0 million. The first half of 2012 reflects senior note proceeds of $450.0 million, offset by former senior note payments of $360.0 million, call premium payments of $23.6 million, debt issuance costs of $12.2 million, and other debt payments of $10.0 million.

Our Free Cash Flow was $(23.1) million during the first six months of 2013, compared to $(82.9) million in the first six months of 2012, an increase of $59.9 million. The primary contributors to this change were the $68.2 million favorable cash flow impact from operating activities in the six month period, as discussed above, offset by an additional $7.9 million in capital expenditures.

Derivatives

We had an Interest Rate Agreement (Old Rate Agreement) in place through April 18, 2012 with respect to $80.0 million of our former Senior Secured Notes as a means to manage our fixed to variable interest rate ratio. On April 18, 2012, we called the Old Rate Agreement at fair value and received proceeds of $3.6 million.

On June 18, 2012, we entered into an Interest Rate Agreement (New Rate Agreement) with a notional amount of $45.0 million that is to mature in 2020. The New Rate Agreement was executed in order to convert a portion of the Senior Secured Notes fixed rate debt into floating rate debt and maintain a capital structure containing fixed and floating rate debt. Prior to May 15, 2015, but not more than once in any twelve-month period, the counterparty may call up to 10 percent of the New Rate Agreement at a call price of 103 percent. The New Rate Agreement is callable at the counterparty’s option, in whole or in part, at any time on or after May 15, 2015 at set call premiums. The variable interest rate for our borrowings related to the New Rate

47

Table of Contents

Agreement at June 30, 2013, excluding applicable fees, is 5.5 percent . This New Rate Agreement expires on May 15, 2020. Total remaining Senior Secured Notes not covered by the New Rate Agreement have a fixed interest rate of 6.875 percent per year through May 15, 2020. If the counterparty to this New Rate Agreement were to fail to perform, this New Rate Agreement would no longer afford us a variable rate. However, we do not anticipate non-performance by the counterparty. The interest rate swap counterparty was rated A+, as of June 30, 2013, by Standard and Poor’s.

The fair market value for the New Rate Agreement at June 30, 2013, was a $1.8 million liability. The fair market value of the New Rate Agreement is based on the market standard methodology of netting the discounted expected future fixed cash receipts and the discounted future variable cash payments. The variable cash payments are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observed market interest rate forward curves.

We also use commodity futures contracts related to forecasted future North American natural gas requirements. The objective of these futures contracts is to reduce the effects of fluctuations and price movements in the underlying commodity. We consider our forecasted natural gas requirements in determining the quantity of natural gas to hedge. We combine the forecasts with historical observations to establish the percentage of forecast eligible to be hedged, typically ranging from 40 percent to 70 percent of our anticipated requirements up to eighteen months in the future. The fair values of these instruments are determined from market quotes. At June 30, 2013, we had commodity futures contracts for 1,550,000 million British Thermal Units (BTUs) of natural gas with a fair market value of a $0.1 million liability. We have hedged a portion of our forecasted transactions through December 2014. At December 31, 2012, we had commodity futures contracts for 2,400,000 million BTUs of natural gas with a fair market value of a $(0.4) million liability. The counterparties for these derivatives were rated BBB+ or better as of June 30, 2013, by Standard & Poor’s.

Item 3.
Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Currency

We are exposed to market risks due to changes in currency values, although the majority of our revenues and expenses are denominated in the U.S. dollar. The currency market risks include devaluations and other major currency fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar, Canadian dollar, euro, RMB or Mexican peso that could reduce the cost competitiveness of our products compared to foreign competition.

Interest Rates

We have an Interest Rate Agreement (New Rate Agreement) with respect to $45.0 million of debt in order to convert a portion of the Senior Secured Notes fixed rate debt into floating rate debt and maintain a capital structure containing fixed and floating rate debt. The interest rate for our borrowings related to the New Rate Agreement at June 30, 2013 is 5.5 percent per year. The New Rate Agreement expires on May 15, 2020. Total remaining Senior Secured Notes not covered by the New Rate Agreement have a fixed interest rate of 6.875 percent . If the counterparty to the New Rate Agreement were to fail to perform, the New Rate Agreement would no longer provide the desired results. However, we do not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparty. The counterparty was rated A+ as of June 30, 2013 by Standard and Poor’s.

Natural Gas

We are exposed to market risks associated with changes in the price of natural gas. We use commodity futures contracts related to forecasted future natural gas requirements of our manufacturing operations in North America. The objective of these futures contracts is to limit the fluctuations in prices paid and potential volatility in earnings or cash flows from price movements in the underlying natural gas commodity. We consider the forecasted natural gas requirements of our manufacturing operations in determining the quantity of natural gas to hedge. We combine the forecasts with historical observations to establish the percentage of forecast eligible to be hedged, typically ranging from 40 percent to 70 percent of our anticipated requirements up to six quarters in the future. For our natural gas requirements that are not hedged, we are subject to changes in the price of natural gas, which affect our earnings. If the counterparties to these futures contracts were to fail to perform, we would no longer be protected from natural gas fluctuations by the futures contracts. However, we do not anticipate nonperformance by these counterparties. All counterparties were rated BBB+ or better by Standard and Poor’s as of June 30, 2013 .

Retirement Plans

We are exposed to market risks associated with changes in the various capital markets. Changes in long-term interest rates affect the discount rate that is used to measure our benefit obligations and related expense. Changes in the equity and debt

48

Table of Contents

securities markets affect our pension plans' asset performance and related pension expense. Sensitivity to these key market risk factors is as follows:
A change of 1.0 percent in the discount rate would change our total annual pension and nonpension postretirement expense by approximately $4.5 million.
A change of 1.0 percent in the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets would change annual pension expense by approximately $3.4 million.

Item 4.
Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) reports are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well-designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

There has been no change in our controls over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Item 5. Other Information

Effective August 7, 2013, our Board of Directors approved the Amended and Restated By-Laws attached as Exhibit 3.2 to this Form 10-Q. The following is a brief summary of the material changes effected by the Amended and Restated By-Laws:

Pursuant to Article II, Sections 9, 10 and 11, we have established new advance notice deadlines and other procedures and information requirements for our stockholders to nominate directors or to propose other business to be conducted at our annual meeting of shareholders so that we can ensure:

the orderly operations of meetings and conduct of corporate business; and
that we and our stockholders have adequate time and information to evaluate and respond to stockholder proposals.

Under the new By-Laws, (i) in most cases, shareholder proposals (including director nominations) must be submitted no less than 90 or no more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting, (ii) shareholders nominating directors or making other proposals must (a) agree to appear in person (or send a proxy to appear) at the annual meeting, (b) disclose certain information regarding their share ownership and other interests with respect to the Company and (c) otherwise comply with the new procedural and disclosure requirements set forth in the Amended and Restated By-Laws.

Pursuant to Article II, Section 11, we have also clarified that members of our board of directors may serve on the boards of directors of no more than three (3) other public companies and that members of the audit committee of the board of directors must serve on the audit committees of no more than two (2) other public companies.

Pursuant to Article III, Section 13, we have clarified that the chairman of our board of directors serves in a non-executive role by virtue of being chairman and is not otherwise an executive or officer of the Company unless the chairman is also our chief executive officer.

Pursuant to the new Section 8 to Article VI, we have specified that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or the federal district court for the District of Delaware or other Delaware State courts if the Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction) shall be the sole and exclusive forum for proceedings which, among other things, are brought on behalf of the Company, claim breaches of fiduciary duties, arise under the Company's governing documents or the Delaware General Corporations Law, challenge the validity of the Company's governing documents or are governed by the internal affairs doctrine.

The foregoing description of the amendments to our By-Laws does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated By-Laws, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.2.

OF

(adopted June 15, 1993;
amended and restated February 1, 2005,
February 8, 2011 and August 7, 2013)





























ARTICLE I
OFFICES
Section 1 .
The registered office shall be in the City of Wilmington, County of New Castle, State of Delaware.
Section 2 .
The Corporation may also have offices at such other places both within and without the State of Delaware as from time to time the board of directors may determine or the business of the Corporation may require.
BOOKS AND RECORDS
Section 3 .
The books and records of the Corporation may be kept at the Corporation's headquarters in Toledo, Ohio or at such other locations outside the State of Delaware as may from time to time be designated by the board of directors.
ARTICLE II
MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS
Section 1 .
All meetings of the stockholders shall be held at any place within or without the State of Delaware as shall be designated from time to time by the board of directors. In the absence of any such designation, stockholders' meetings shall be held at the principal executive office of the Corporation.
Section 2 .
An annual meeting of stockholders shall be held each year on a date and at a time designated by the board of directors. At each annual meeting, subject to the procedures set forth in these By-Laws, directors shall be elected and any other proper business may be transacted.
Section 3 .
A majority of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders, the holders of which are present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business except as otherwise provided by law, by the Certificate of Incorporation, or by these By-Laws. A quorum, once established, shall not be broken by the withdrawal of enough votes to leave less than a quorum and the votes present may continue to transact business until adjournment. If, however, such quorum shall not be present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, a majority of the voting stock represented in person or by proxy may adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present or represented, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally notified. If the adjournment is for more than thirty days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote thereat.
Section 4 .
When a quorum is present at any meeting, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the shareholders, other than (i) the election of directors, which is governed by Article III, Section 1 of these By-Laws, and (ii) any other question or matter that, by express provision of law, or the Certificate of Incorporation, or by these By-Laws, requires a different vote, in which case such question shall be governed and controlled by such express provision.
Section 5 .
At each meeting of the stockholders, each stockholder having the right to vote may vote in person or may authorize another person or persons to act for him by proxy in a manner permitted by Section 212 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware. A proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient

2



in law to support an irrevocable power. A stockholder may revoke any proxy which is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by delivering to the secretary of the Corporation a revocation of the proxy or a new proxy bearing a later date.
Section 6 .
Special meetings of the stockholders, for any purpose, or purposes, unless otherwise prescribed by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation, may be called at any time only by the request of the board of directors, or by a majority of the members of the board of directors, or by a committee of the board of directors which has been duly designated by the board of directors and whose powers and authority as provided in a resolution of the board of directors or these By-Laws, include the power to call such meetings. Such request shall state the purpose or purposes of the proposed meeting. Special meetings of stockholders of the Corporation may not be called by another person or persons. Business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to the purposes stated in the notice.
Section 7 .
Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a written notice of the meeting shall be given, which notice shall state the place, date and hour of the meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. The written notice of any meeting shall be given to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting not less than ten nor more than sixty days before the date of the meeting. If mailed, notice is given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, directed to the stockholder at his address as it appears on the records of the Corporation. Meetings may be held without notice if all stockholders entitled to vote are present (except as otherwise provided by law), or if notice is waived by those not present. Any previously scheduled meeting of the stockholders may be postponed and (unless the Certificate of Incorporation otherwise provides) any special meeting of the stockholders may be cancelled, by resolution of the board of directors upon public notice given prior to the time previously scheduled for such meeting of stockholders.
Section 8 .
The officer who has charge of the stock ledger of the Corporation shall prepare and make, at least ten days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten days prior to the meeting, (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of meeting or (ii) during ordinary business hours at the principal place of business of the corporation. The list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. Except as otherwise provided by law, the stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the stock ledger, the list of stockholders required by this Section 8, or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders.
ADVANCE NOTICE OF BUSINESS TO BE BROUGHT BEFORE A MEETING
Section 9 .
(a) At an annual meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, business must be (i) specified in a notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the board of directors, (ii) if not specified in a notice of meeting, otherwise brought before the meeting by the board of directors or the Chairman of the board of directors or (iii) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a stockholder present in person who (A) (1) was a beneficial owner of shares of the Corporation both at the time of giving the notice provided for in this Section 9 and at the time of the meeting, (2) is entitled to vote at the meeting, and (3) has complied with this Section 9 in all applicable respects or (B) properly made such proposal in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (as so amended and inclusive of such rules and regulations, the “Exchange Act”). The foregoing clause (iii) shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to propose business to be brought before an annual meeting of the stockholders. For purposes of this Section 9, “present in person” shall mean that the stockholder proposing that the business be brought before the annual meeting of the Corporation, or, if the proposing stockholder is not an individual, a qualified representative of such proposing stockholder, appear at such annual meeting. A “qualified representative” of such proposing stockholder shall be, if such proposing stockholder is (i) a general or limited partnership, any general partner or person who functions as a general partner of the general or limited partnership or who controls the general or limited partnership, (ii) a corporation or a limited liability company, any officer or person who functions as an officer of the corporation or limited liability company or any officer, director, general partner or

3



person who functions as an officer, director or general partner of any entity ultimately in control of the corporation or limited liability company or (iii) a trust, any trustee of such trust. Stockholders seeking to nominate persons for election to the board of directors must comply with Section 10 and Section 11 and this Section 9 shall not be applicable to nominations except as expressly provided in Section 10 and Section 11.

(b) Without qualification, for business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, the stockholder must (i) provide Timely Notice (as defined below) thereof in writing and in proper form to the secretary of the Corporation and (ii) provide any updates or supplements to such notice at the times and in the forms required by this Section 9. To be timely, a stockholder's notice must be delivered to, or mailed and received at, the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than ninety (90) days nor more than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the one-year anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting; provided, however, that if the date of the annual meeting is more than thirty (30) days before or more than sixty (60) days after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered, or mailed and received, not later than the ninetieth (90th) day prior to such annual meeting or, if later, the tenth (10th) day following the day on which public disclosure of the date of such annual meeting was first made (such notice within such time periods, “Timely Notice”). In no event shall any adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting or the announcement thereof commence a new time period for the giving of Timely Notice as described above.

(c) To be in proper form for purposes of this Section 9, a stockholder's notice to the secretary shall set forth:

(i) As to each Proposing Person (as defined below), (A) the name and address of such Proposing Person (including, if applicable, the name and address that appear on the Corporation's books and records); and (B) the class or series and number of shares of the Corporation that are, directly or indirectly, owned of record or beneficially owned (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) by such Proposing Person, except that such Proposing Person shall in all events be deemed to beneficially own any shares of any class or series of the Corporation as to which such Proposing Person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership at any time in the future (the disclosures to be made pursuant to the foregoing clauses (A) and (B) are referred to as “Stockholder Information”);

(ii) As to each Proposing Person, (A) the full notional amount of any securities that, directly or indirectly, underlie any “derivative security” (as such term is defined in Rule 16a‑1(c) under the Exchange Act) that constitutes a “call equivalent position” (as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1(b) under the Exchange Act) (“Synthetic Equity Position”) and that is, directly or indirectly, held or maintained by such Proposing Person with respect to any shares of any class or series of shares of the Corporation; provided that, for the purposes of the definition of “Synthetic Equity Position,” the term “derivative security” shall also include any security or instrument that would not otherwise constitute a “derivative security” as a result of any feature that would make any conversion, exercise or similar right or privilege of such security or instrument becoming determinable only at some future date or upon the happening of a future occurrence, in which case the determination of the amount of securities into which such security or instrument would be convertible or exercisable shall be made assuming that such security or instrument is immediately convertible or exercisable at the time of such determination; and, provided, further, that any Proposing Person satisfying the requirements of Rule 13d-1(b)(1) under the Exchange Act (other than a Proposing Person that so satisfies Rule 13d-1(b)(1) under the Exchange Act solely by reason of Rule 13d-1(b)(1)(ii)(E)) shall not be deemed to hold or maintain the notional amount of any securities that underlie a Synthetic Equity Position held by such Proposing Person as a hedge with respect to a bona fide derivatives trade or position of such Proposing Person arising in the ordinary course of such Proposing Person's business as a derivatives dealer, (B) any rights to dividends on the shares of any class or series of shares of the Corporation owned beneficially by such Proposing Person that are separated or separable from the underlying shares of the Corporation, (C) any material pending or threatened legal proceeding in which such Proposing Person is a party or material participant involving the Corporation or any of its officers or directors, or any affiliate of the Corporation, (D) any other material relationship between such Proposing Person, on the one hand, and the Corporation, any affiliate of the Corporation or any principal competitor of the Corporation, on the other hand, (E) any direct or indirect material interest in any material contract or agreement of such Proposing Person with the Corporation or any affiliate of the Corporation and (F) any other information relating to such Proposing Person that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filing required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies or consents by such Proposing Person in support of the business proposed to be brought before the meeting pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act (the disclosures to be made pursuant to the foregoing clauses (A) through (F) are referred to as “Disclosable Interests”); provided, however, that Disclosable Interests shall not include any such disclosures with respect to the ordinary course business activities of any broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee who is a Proposing Person solely as a result of being the stockholder directed to prepare and submit the notice required by these By-Laws on behalf of a beneficial owner; and


4



(iii) As to each item of business that the stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting, (A) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting, the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting and any material interest in such business of each Proposing Person, (B) the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration), and (C) a reasonably detailed description of all agreements, arrangements and understandings (x) between or among any of the Proposing Persons or (y) between or among any Proposing Person and any other record or beneficial holder(s) or persons(s) who have a right to acquire beneficial ownership at any time in the future of the shares of any class or series of the Corporation or any other person or entity (including their names) in connection with the proposal of such business by such stockholder; and (D) any other information relating to such item of business that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filing required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies in support of the business proposed to be brought before the meeting pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act; provided, however, that the disclosures required by this paragraph (iii) shall not include any disclosures with respect to any broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee who is a Proposing Person solely as a result of being the stockholder directed to prepare and submit the notice required by these By-Laws on behalf of a beneficial owner.

For purposes of this Section 9, the term “Proposing Person” shall mean (i) the stockholder providing the notice of business proposed to be brought before an annual meeting, (ii) the beneficial owner or beneficial owners, if different, on whose behalf the notice of the business proposed to be brought before the annual meeting is made, and (iii) any participant (as defined in paragraphs (a)(ii)-(vi) of Instruction 3 to Item 4 of Schedule 14A) with such stockholder in such solicitation or associate (within the meaning of Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act for purposes of these By-Laws) of such stockholder or beneficial owner.
(d) A Proposing Person shall update and supplement its notice to the Corporation of its intent to propose business at an annual meeting, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such notice pursuant to this Section 9 shall be true and correct as of the record date for notice of the meeting and as of the date that is ten (10) business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, and such update and supplement shall be delivered to, or mailed and received by, the secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than five (5) business days after the record date for notice of the meeting (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of such record date), and not later than eight (8) business days prior to the date for the meeting or, if practicable, any adjournment or postponement thereof (and, if not practicable, on the first practicable date prior to the date to which the meeting has been adjourned or postponed) (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of ten (10) business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof).

(e) Notwithstanding anything in these By-Laws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at an annual meeting that is not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with this Section 9. The person presiding at the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine that the business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with this Section 9, and if he or she should so determine, he or she shall so declare to the meeting and any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted.

(f) This Section 9 is expressly intended to apply to any business proposed to be brought before an annual meeting of stockholders other than any proposal made in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act and included in the Corporation's proxy statement. In addition to the requirements of this Section 9 with respect to any business proposed to be brought before an annual meeting, each Proposing Person shall comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act with respect to any such business. Nothing in this Section 9 shall be deemed to affect the rights of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation's proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act.

(g) For purposes of these By-Laws, “public disclosure” shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by a national news service or in a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Sections 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

NOTICE OF NOMINATIONS FOR ELECTION TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Section 10 .
(a) Nominations of any person for election to the board of directors at an annual meeting or at a special meeting (but only if the election of directors is a matter specified in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the person calling such special meeting) may be made at such meeting only (i) by or at the direction of the board of directors, including by any committee or persons authorized to do so by the board of directors or these By-Laws, or (ii) by a stockholder present in person (A) who was a beneficial owner of shares of the Corporation both at the time of giving the notice provided for in this Section

5



10 and at the time of the meeting, (B) is entitled to vote at the meeting, and (C) has complied with this Section 10 and Section 11 as to such notice and nomination. For purposes of this Section 10, “present in person” shall mean that the stockholder proposing that the business be brought before the meeting of the Corporation, or, if the proposing stockholder is not an individual, a qualified representative of such stockholder, appear at such meeting. A “qualified representative” of such proposing stockholder shall be, if such proposing stockholder is (x) a general or limited partnership, any general partner or person who functions as a general partner of the general or limited partnership or who controls the general or limited partnership, (y) a corporation or a limited liability company, any officer or person who functions as an officer of the corporation or limited liability company or any officer, director, general partner or person who functions as an officer, director or general partner of any entity ultimately in control of the corporation or limited liability company or (iii) a trust, any trustee of such trust. The foregoing clause (ii) shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to make any nomination of a person or persons for election to the board of directors at an annual meeting or special meeting.

(b) Without qualification, for a stockholder to make any nomination of a person or persons for election to the board of directors at an annual meeting, the stockholder must (i) provide Timely Notice (as defined in Section 9) thereof in writing and in proper form to the secretary of the Corporation, (ii) provide the information, agreements and questionnaires with respect to such stockholder and its candidate for nomination as required to be set forth by this Section 10 and Section 11 and (iii) provide any updates or supplements to such notice at the times and in the forms required by this Section 10 and Section 11. Without qualification, if the election of directors is a matter specified in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the person calling a special meeting, then for a stockholder to make any nomination of a person or persons for election to the board of directors at a special meeting, the stockholder must (i) provide timely notice thereof in writing and in proper form to the secretary of the Corporation at the principal executive offices of the Corporation, (ii) provide the information with respect to such stockholder and its candidate for nomination as required by this Section 10 and Section 11 and (iii) provide any updates or supplements to such notice at the times and in the forms required by this Section 10. To be timely, a stockholder's notice for nominations to be made at a special meeting must be delivered to, or mailed and received at, the principal executive offices of the Corporation not earlier than the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to such special meeting and not later than the ninetieth (90th) day prior to such special meeting or, if later, the tenth (10th) day following the day on which public disclosure (as defined in Section 9) of the date of such special meeting was first made. In no event shall any adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting or special meeting or the announcement thereof commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder's notice as described above.

(c) To be in proper form for purposes of this Section 10, a stockholder's notice to the secretary shall set forth:

(i) As to each Nominating Person (as defined below), the Stockholder Information (as defined in Section 9(c)(i), except that for purposes of this Section 10 the term “Nominating Person” shall be substituted for the term “Proposing Person” in all places it appears in Section 9(c)(i));

(ii) As to each Nominating Person, any Disclosable Interests (as defined in Section 9(c)(ii), except that for purposes of this Section 10 the term “Nominating Person” shall be substituted for the term “Proposing Person” in all places it appears in Section 9(c)(ii) and the disclosure with respect to the business to be brought before the meeting in Section 9(c)(ii) shall be made with respect to the election of directors at the meeting); and

(iii) As to each candidate whom a Nominating Person proposes to nominate for election as a director, (A) all information with respect to such candidate for nomination that would be required to be set forth in a stockholder's notice pursuant to this Section 10 and Section 11 if such candidate for nomination were a Nominating Person, (B) all information relating to such candidate for nomination that is required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of directors in a contested election pursuant to Section 14(a) under the Exchange Act (including such candidate's written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected), (C) a description of any direct or indirect material interest in any material contract or agreement between or among any Nominating Person, on the one hand, and each candidate for nomination or his or her respective associates or any other participants in such solicitation, on the other hand, including, without limitation, all information that would be required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 under Regulation S-K if such Nominating Person were the “registrant” for purposes of such rule and the candidate for nomination were a director or executive officer of such registrant (the disclosures to be made pursuant to the foregoing clauses (A) through (C) are referred to as “Nominee Information”), and (D) a completed and signed questionnaire, representation and agreement as provided in Section 11(a).

For purposes of this Section 10, the term “Nominating Person” shall mean (i) the stockholder providing the notice of the nomination proposed to be made at the meeting, (ii) the beneficial owner or beneficial owners, if different, on whose behalf the

6

(e) In addition to the requirements of this Section 10 with respect to any nomination proposed to be made at a meeting, each Nominating Person shall comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act with respect to any such nominations.

DIRECTOR ELECTION POLICY
Section 12 .
(a) It is a policy of the Board that in an uncontested election of directors, any nominee for election as a director who fails to receive the vote required by Section 1 of Article III of these By-Laws (the "Requisite Vote") is expected to tender his or her resignation to the Board promptly following the certification of the results for such election.

(b) The Nominating and Governance Committee shall consider each resignation tendered under this policy and recommend to the Board whether to accept or reject it. The Board will act on each tendered resignation, taking into account the Nominating and Governance Committee's recommendation, within 90 days following the certification of the election results. The Nominating and Governance Committee in making its recommendation, and the Board in making its determination, may consider any factors or other information that it considers appropriate, including, without limitation, the reasons (if any) given by stockholders as to why they withheld their votes, the qualifications of the tendering director and his or her contributions to the Board, The Board will promptly disclose (1) its decision whether to accept or reject each tendered resignation and (2) if applicable, the reasons for rejecting any tendered resignation, in a press release to be disseminated in the manner the Company's press releases are typically distributed.

(c) Any director who tenders his or her resignation pursuant to this policy shall not participate in the Nominating and Governance Committee recommendation or Board determination regarding whether to accept or reject his or her tendered resignation. If, however, each member of the Nominating and Governance Committee failed to receive the Requisite Vote at the same election, then the Board shall create a committee comprised solely of independent directors who did not fail to receive the Requisite Vote to consider the tendered resignations and recommend to the Board whether or not to accept them. Further, if the only directors who did not fail to receive the Requisite Vote in the same election constitute three or fewer directors, all directors may participate in the Board determination regarding whether or not to accept the tendered resignations.

(d) If a director's resignation tendered under this policy is rejected by the Board, such director will continue to serve for the remainder of his or her term and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified, or until his or her death, resignation, retirement or removal.

(e) If a director's tendered resignation is accepted by the Board, then the Board, in its sole discretion, may fill any resulting vacancy or may decrease the size of the Board in each case pursuant to the applicable provisions of these By-Laws.

(f) The Board shall consider as candidates for nomination for election or re-election to the Board, or to fill vacancies and new directorships on the Board, only those individuals who agree to tender, promptly following their election, re-election or appointment, an irrevocable resignation that will be effective upon (1) the director's failure to receive the Requisite Vote in his or her election as a director and (2) the acceptance of such tendered resignation by the Board.

(g) The Board will have the exclusive power and authority to administer and interpret this policy and to make all determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of this provision, including any determination as to whether any election of directors is contested. All such actions, interpretations and determinations that are done or made by the Board in good faith will be final, conclusive and binding.

(h) All proxies must be filed with the secretary of the Corporation at the beginning of each meeting in order to be counted in any vote at the meeting. Each stockholder shall have one vote for each share of stock having voting power, registered in his name on the books of the Corporation on the record date set by the board of directors as provided in Article V, Section 6 hereof.

In the event that no inspector so appointed or designated is able to act at a meeting of stockholders, the person presiding at the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of his or her duties, shall take and sign an oath to execute faithfully the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of his or her ability.

Such certification and report shall specify such other information as may be required by law. In determining the validity and counting of proxies and ballots cast at any meeting of stockholders of the corporation, the inspectors may consider such information as is permitted by applicable law. No person who is a candidate for an office at an election may serve as an inspector at such election.
