THE TIMKEN COMPANY
General
As used herein, the term Timken or the Company refers to The Timken Company and its subsidiaries unless the context otherwise requires. The Timken Company develops, manufactures, markets and sells products for friction management and mechanical power transmission, alloy steels and steel components.
The Company was founded in 1899 by Henry Timken, who received two patents on the design of a tapered roller bearing. Timken grew to become the worlds largest manufacturer of tapered roller bearings. Over the years, the Company has expanded its breadth of bearing products beyond tapered roller bearings to include cylindrical, spherical, needle and precision ball bearings. In addition to bearings, Timken further broadened its portfolio to include a wide array of friction management products and maintenance services to improve the operation of customers machinery and equipment, such as lubricants, seals, bearing maintenance tools and condition-monitoring equipment. The Company also manufactures mechanical power transmission components and assemblies, as well as systems such as helicopter transmissions, high-quality alloy steel, bars and tubing to custom specifications to meet demanding performance requirements and finished and semi-finished steel components.
Timkens global footprint consists of 58 manufacturing facilities, 10 technology and engineering centers, 14 distribution centers and warehouses and nearly 21,000 employees. Timken operates in 30 countries and territories.
Industry Segments and Geographical Financial Information
Information required by this item is incorporated by reference to Note 14 Segment Information in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Major Customers
The Company develops, manufactures, markets and sells products for friction management and power transmission, alloy steels and steel components to many industries and customers. The Company does not have any sales to a single customer that are 10% or more of total sales or segment sales.
Products
The Timken Company manufactures and manages global supply chains for two core product lines: anti-friction bearings and adjacent mechanical power transmission components, as well as specialty steel and related precision steel components. Differentiation in these two product lines is achieved by either: (1) product type or (2) the targeted applications utilizing the product.
Bearings and Power Transmission. Selection and development of bearings for customers applications and demand for high reliability require engineering and sophisticated analytical techniques. Timkens know-how, combined with high precision tolerance, proprietary internal geometry and premium quality material, provide Timken bearings with high load-carrying capacity, excellent friction-reducing qualities and long service lives. The uses for bearings are diverse and can be found in transportation applications that include passenger cars and trucks, heavy trucks, helicopters, airplanes and trains. Ranging in size from precision bearings the size of a pencil eraser to those roughly three meters in diameter, they also are used in a wide variety of industrial applications, ranging from paper and steel mills, mining, oil and gas extraction and production, gear drives, health and positioning control, wind mills and food processing. Timken manufactures or in some cases purchases the required components and then sells them assembled or as individual components in a wide variety of configurations and sizes. In addition to bearings, Timken provides mechanical power transmission products, including chains, augers, gear boxes, seals, lubricants, and related products and services.
Tapered Roller Bearings . The tapered roller bearing is Timkens original entrant to the anti-friction bearing segment. The tapered rollers permit ready absorption of both radial and axial load combinations. For this reason, tapered roller bearings are particularly well-adapted to reducing friction where shafts, gears or wheels are used. Bearings generally consist of four components: (1) the cone or inner race; (2) the cup or outer race; (3) the rollers, which roll between the cup and cone; and (4) the cage, which serves as a retainer and maintains proper spacing between the rollers.
1
Precision Cylindrical and Ball Bearings. Timkens aerospace facilities produce high-performance ball and cylindrical bearings for ultra high-speed and/or high-accuracy applications in the aerospace, medical and dental, computer and other industries. These bearings utilize ball and straight rolling elements and are in the super precision end of the general ball and straight roller bearing product range in the bearing industry. A majority of these bearings products are custom-designed bearings and spindle assemblies. They often involve specialized materials and coatings for use in applications that subject the bearings to extreme operating conditions of speed and temperature.
Spherical and Cylindrical Roller Bearings. Timken produces spherical and cylindrical roller bearings for large gear drives, rolling mills and other industrial and infrastructure development applications. These products are sold worldwide to original equipment manufacturers and industrial distributors serving major end-markets, including construction and mining, natural resources, defense, pulp and paper production, rolling mills and general industrial goods. The same rigorous analysis and development apply to these products as well.
Chains and Augers. Through the acquisition of Drives LLC (Drives) in 2011, Timken now manufactures American National Standards Institute (ANSI) precision roller chain, pintle chain, agricultural conveyor chain, engineering class chain, oil field roller chain and auger products. These highly engineered products are vital to a wide range of mobile and industrial machinery applications, including agriculture, oil and gas, aggregate and mining, primary metals, forest products and other heavy industries, including food and beverage and packaged goods sectors, which often require high-end, specialty products such as stainless-steel and corrosion-resistant roller chains.
Gear-Drive Systems . Through the acquisition of Philadelphia Gear Corp. (Philadelphia Gear) in 2011, Timken now provides aftermarket gear box repair services and gear-drive systems for the industrial, energy and military marine sectors, including refining and pipeline systems, mining, cement, pulp and paper making and water management systems.
Services. Timken also provides bearing reconditioning and repair; condition monitoring and reliability services to maximize performance, durability and maintenance intervals for industrial and railroad customers, both domestically and internationally. Other services include maintenance and rework services for large industrial equipment used in metal mills and energy sectors. The total services accounted for less than 5% of the Companys net sales for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Aerospace Products and Services . Timkens portfolio of parts, systems and services for the aerospace market has grown to include products used in helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft for the military and commercial aviation industries. Timken provides design, manufacturing and testing for a wide variety of power transmission and drive train components including bearings, transmissions, turbine engine components, gears and rotor-head assemblies and housings. Other parts include airfoils (such as blades, vanes, rotors and diffusers), nozzles and other precision flight-critical components.
In addition to original equipment, Timken provides a wide range of aftermarket products and services for global customers, including complete engine overhaul, bearing repair, component reconditioning and replacement parts for gas turbine engines, transmissions and fuel controls, gearboxes and accessory systems in helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft. Our precision bearings also have applications in spacecraft and robotic vehicles, like Curiosity, the newest Mars Rover. Customers for these precision bearings also include manufacturers of medical and health equipment, machine tools, industrial motion control systems and precision robotics.
Steel. Timken produces more than 450 grades of carbon, micro-alloy and alloy steel, which are sold as ingots, bars and tubes in a variety of chemistries, lengths and finishes. Our metallurgical expertise and operational capabilities enable us to provide customized solutions for the automotive, industrial and energy sectors. Timken ® specialty steels are used in a wide variety of end products including oil country drill pipe, bits and collars, gears, hubs, axles, crankshafts and connecting rods, bearing races and rolling elements, bushings, fuel injectors, wind energy shafts and other demanding applications, where mechanical power transmission is critical to the end customer.
Precision Steel Components. Timken also produces custom-made steel products, including steel components for automotive and industrial customers. Steel components have provided the Company with the opportunity to further expand its market for tubing and capture higher value-added steel sales by streamlining customer supply chains. It also enables Timkens traditional tubing customers in the automotive and bearing industries to take advantage of ready-to-finish components that cost less than other alternatives. Customization of products is an important component of the Companys steel business where mechanical power transmission is critical to the end customer.

Sales and Distribution
Timkens products in the Mobile Industries, Process Industries and Aerospace and Defense segments are sold principally by its own internal sales organizations. A portion of the Process Industries segments sales are made through authorized distributors.
Traditionally, a main focus of the Companys sales strategy has consisted of collaborative projects with customers. For this reason, the Companys sales forces are primarily located in close proximity to its customers rather than at production sites. In some instances, the sales forces are located inside customer facilities. The Companys sales force is highly-trained and knowledgeable regarding all friction management products, and employees assist customers during the development and implementation phases and provide ongoing support.
The Company has a joint venture in North America focused on joint logistics and e-business services. This alliance is called CoLinx, LLC and includes five equity members: Timken, SKF Group, the Schaeffler Group, Rockwell Automation and Gates Corporation. The e-business service is focused on information and business services for authorized distributors in the Process Industries segment.
Timkens steel products are sold principally by its own sales organization. Most orders are customized to satisfy customer-specific applications and are shipped directly to customers from Timkens steel manufacturing plants. Less than 10% of Timkens Steel Group net sales are intersegment sales. In addition, sales are made to other anti-friction bearing companies and to the automotive and truck, forging, construction, industrial equipment, oil and gas drilling and aircraft industries and to steel service centers.
Timken has entered into individually negotiated contracts with some of its customers in its Mobile Industries, Process Industries, Aerospace and Defense and Steel segments. These contracts may extend for one or more years and, if a price is fixed for any period extending beyond current shipments, customarily include a commitment by the customer to purchase a designated percentage of its requirements from Timken. Timken does not believe that there is any significant loss of earnings risk associated with any given contract.
Competition
The anti-friction bearing business is highly competitive in every country in which Timken sells products. Timken competes primarily based on price, quality, timeliness of delivery, product design and the ability to provide engineering support and service on a global basis. The Company competes with domestic manufacturers and many foreign manufacturers of anti-friction bearings, including SKF Group, Schaeffler Group, NTN Corporation, JTEKT Corporation (JTEKT) and NSK Ltd.
Competition within the steel industry, both domestically and globally, is intense and is expected to remain so. Principal bar competitors include foreign-owned domestic producers Gerdau Special Steel North America (a unit of Brazilian steelmaker Gerdau, S.A) and Republic Steel (a unit of Mexican steel producer ICH), along with domestic steel producers Steel Dynamics, Inc. and Nucor Corporation. Seamless tubing competitors include foreign-owned domestic producers ArcelorMittal Tubular Products (a unit of Luxembourg-based ArcelorMittal, S.A.), V&M Star Tubes (a unit of Vallourec, S.A.), and Tenaris, S.A. Additionally, Timken competes with a wide variety of offshore producers of both bars and tubes, including Sanyo Special Steel and Ovako. Timken also provides value-added steel products to its customers in the energy, industrial and automotive sectors. Competitors within the value-added market segment include Linamar, Jernberg and Curtis Screw Company.
Maintaining high standards of product quality and reliability, while keeping production costs competitive, is essential to Timkens ability to compete with domestic and foreign manufacturers in both the anti-friction bearing and steel businesses.

Joint Ventures
Investments in affiliated companies accounted for under the equity method were approximately $2.0 million and $9.4 million, respectively, at December 31, 2011 and 2010. The amount at December 31, 2011 was reported in other non-current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The significant decrease between the amount at December 31, 2011 and the amount at December 31, 2010 was due to the impairment and subsequent sale of International Component Supply, Ltda. (ICS). The Company also consolidated one of its investments in affiliated companies, Advanced Green Components (AGC), as a result of it qualifying as a variable interest entity. The net assets of AGC at December 31, 2011 were $0.6 million.
Backlog
The following table provides the backlog of orders of Timkens domestic and overseas operations at December 31, 2011 and 2010:

Approximately 91% of the Companys backlog at December 31, 2011 is scheduled for delivery in the succeeding twelve months. Actual shipments are dependent upon ever-changing production schedules of customers. Accordingly, Timken does not believe that its backlog data and comparisons thereof, as of different dates, are reliable indicators of future sales or shipments.
Raw Materials
The principal raw materials used by Timken in steel manufacturing are scrap metal, nickel, molybdenum and other alloys. The availability and costs of raw materials and energy resources are subject to curtailment or change due to, among other things, new laws or regulations, changes in global demand levels, suppliers allocations to other purchasers, interruptions in production by suppliers, changes in exchange rates and prevailing price levels. For example, the weighted average consumption cost of scrap metal decreased 49.0% from 2008 to 2009, increased 59.0% from 2009 to 2010 and increased 22.9% from 2010 to 2011.
The Company continues to expect that it will be able to pass a significant portion of cost increases through to customers in the form of price increases or surcharges.
Disruptions in the supply of raw materials or energy resources could temporarily impair the Companys ability to manufacture its products for its customers or require the Company to pay higher prices in order to obtain these raw materials or energy resources from other sources, which could affect the Companys revenues and profitability. Any increase in the costs for such raw materials or energy resources could materially affect the Companys earnings. Timken believes that the availability of raw materials and alloys is adequate for its needs, and, in general, it is not dependent on any single source of supply.
Research
Timken operates a network of technology and engineering centers to support its global customers with sites in North America, Europe and Asia. This network develops and delivers innovative friction management and mechanical power transmission solutions and technical services. The largest technical center is located in North Canton, Ohio, near Timkens world headquarters. Other sites in the United States include Mesa, Arizona; Manchester, Connecticut; Keene and Lebanon, New Hampshire; and King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. Within Europe, the Company has technology facilities in Ploiesti, Romania; and Colmar, France, and in Asia, it operates technology and engineering facilities in Bangalore, India and Shanghai, China.
Expenditures for research, development and application amounted to approximately $49.6 million, $49.9 million and $50.0 million in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Of these amounts, approximately $0.3 million, $1.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively, were funded by others in 2011, 2010 and 2009.

Environmental Matters
The Company continues its efforts to protect the environment and comply with environmental protection laws. Additionally, it has invested in pollution control equipment and updated plant operational practices. The Company is committed to implementing a documented environmental management system worldwide and to becoming certified under the ISO 14001 standard where appropriate to meet or exceed customer requirements. As of the end of 2011, 21 of the Companys plants had obtained ISO 14001 certification.
The Company believes it has established adequate reserves to cover its environmental expenses and has a well-established environmental compliance audit program, which includes a proactive approach to bringing its domestic and international units to higher standards of environmental performance. This program measures performance against applicable laws, as well as standards that have been established for all units worldwide. It is difficult to assess the possible effect of compliance with future requirements that differ from existing ones. As previously reported, the Company is unsure of the future financial impact to the Company that could result from the United States Environmental Protection Agencys (EPAs) final rules to tighten the National Ambient Air Quality Standards for fine particulate and ozone. In addition, the Company is unsure of the future financial impact to the Company that could result from U.S. EPA instituting hourly ambient air quality standards for sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide. The Company is also unsure of potential future financial impacts to the Company that could result from possible future legislation regulating emissions of greenhouse gases.
The Company and of its certain of its U.S. subsidiaries have been designated as potentially responsible parties by the EPA for site investigation and remediation at off-site disposal or recycling facilities under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), known as the Superfund, or state laws similar to CERCLA. In general, such claims for remediation have been asserted against numerous other entities, which are believed to be financially solvent and are expected to substantially fulfill their proportionate share of the obligation.
Management believes any ultimate liability with respect to pending actions will not materially affect the Companys operations, cash flows or consolidated financial position. The Company is also conducting environmental investigation and/or remediation activities at a number of current or former operating sites. Any liability with respect to such investigation and remediation activities, in the aggregate, is not expected to be material to the operations or financial position of the Company.
New laws and regulations, stricter enforcement of existing laws and regulations, the discovery of previously unknown contamination or the imposition of new clean-up requirements may require the Company to incur costs or become the basis for new or increased liabilities that could have a materially adverse effect on Timkens business, financial condition or results of operations.
Patents, Trademarks and Licenses
Timken owns a number of U.S. and foreign patents, trademarks and licenses relating to certain products. While Timken regards these as important, it does not deem its business as a whole, or any industry segment, to be materially dependent upon any one item or group of items.
Employment
At December 31, 2011, Timken had 20,954 employees. Approximately 10% of Timkens U.S. employees are covered under collective bargaining agreements.

The following are certain risk factors that could affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. The risks that are highlighted below are not the only ones that we face. These risk factors should be considered in connection with evaluating forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K because these factors could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be negatively affected.
The bearing industry is highly competitive, and this competition results in significant pricing pressure for our products that could affect our revenues and profitability.
The global bearing industry is highly competitive. We compete with domestic manufacturers and many foreign manufacturers of anti-friction bearings, including SKF Group, Schaeffler Group, NTN Corporation, JTEKT and NSK Ltd. The bearing industry is also capital intensive and profitability is dependent on factors such as labor compensation and productivity and inventory management, which are subject to risks that we may not be able to control. Due to the competitiveness within the bearing industry, we may not be able to increase prices for our products to cover increases in our costs. In many cases we face pressure from our customers to reduce prices, which could adversely affect our revenues and profitability. In addition, our customers may choose to purchase products from one of our competitors rather than pay the prices we seek for our products, which could adversely affect our revenues and profitability.
Competition and consolidation in the steel industry, together with potential global overcapacity, could result in significant pricing pressure for our products.
Competition within the steel industry, both domestically and worldwide, is intense and is expected to remain so. Global production overcapacity has occurred in the past and may recur in the future, which would exert downward pressure on domestic steel prices and result in, at times, a dramatic narrowing, or with many companies the elimination, of gross margins. High levels of steel imports into the United States could exacerbate this pressure on domestic steel prices. In addition, many of our competitors are continuously exploring and implementing strategies, including acquisitions and the addition or repositioning of capacity, which focus on manufacturing higher margin products that compete more directly with our steel products. These factors could lead to significant downward pressure on prices for our steel products, which could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and profitability.
Our business is capital intensive, and if there are downturns in the industries that we serve, we may be forced to significantly curtail or suspend operations with respect to those industries, which could result in our recording asset impairment charges or taking other measures that may adversely affect our results of operations and profitability.
Our business operations are capital intensive, and we devote a significant amount of capital to certain industries. If there are downturns in the industries that we serve, we may be forced to significantly curtail or suspend our operations with respect to those industries, including laying-off employees, recording asset impairment charges and other measures, which may adversely affect our results of operations and profitability.
Weakness in either global economic conditions or in any of the industries in which our customers operate, as well as the cyclical nature of our customers businesses generally or sustained uncertainty in financial markets, could adversely impact our revenues and profitability by reducing demand and margins.
Our results of operations may be materially affected by the conditions in the global economy generally and in global capital markets. There has been extreme volatility in the capital markets and in the end markets in which our customers operate, which has negatively affected our revenues. Our revenues may also be negatively affected by changes in customer demand, additional changes in the product mix and negative pricing pressure in the industries in which we operate. Margins in those industries are highly sensitive to demand cycles, and our customers in those industries historically have tended to delay large capital projects, including expensive maintenance and upgrades, during economic downturns. As a result, our revenues and earnings are impacted by overall levels of industrial production.
Our results of operations may be materially affected by the conditions in the global financial markets. If an end user cannot obtain financing to purchase our products, either directly or indirectly contained in machinery or equipment, demand for our products will be reduced, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and earnings.
6
If a customer becomes insolvent or files for bankruptcy, our ability to recover accounts receivable from that customer would be adversely affected and any payment we received during the preference period prior to a bankruptcy filing may be potentially recoverable by the bankruptcy estate. Furthermore, if certain of our customers liquidate in bankruptcy, we may incur impairment charges relating to obsolete inventory and machinery and equipment. In addition, financial instability of certain companies in the supply chain could disrupt production in any particular industry. A disruption of production in any of the industries where we participate could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and earnings.
Any change in the operation of our raw material surcharge mechanisms, a raw material market index or the availability or cost of raw materials and energy resources could materially affect our revenues and earnings.
We require substantial amounts of raw materials, including scrap metal and alloys and natural gas to operate our business. Many of our customer contracts contain surcharge pricing provisions. The surcharges are generally tied to a widely-available market index for that specific raw material. Recently many of the widely-available raw material market indices have experienced wide fluctuations. Any change in a raw material market index could materially affect our revenues. Any change in the relationship between the market indices and our underlying costs could materially affect our earnings. Any change in our projected year-end input costs could materially affect our last-in, first-out (LIFO) inventory valuation method and earnings.
Moreover, future disruptions in the supply of our raw materials or energy resources could impair our ability to manufacture our products for our customers or require us to pay higher prices in order to obtain these raw materials or energy resources from other sources, and could thereby affect our sales and profitability. Any increase in the prices for such raw materials or energy resources could materially affect our costs and therefore our earnings.
Warranty, recall or product liability claims could materially adversely affect our earnings.
In our business, we are exposed to warranty and product liability claims. In addition, we may be required to participate in the recall of a product. A successful warranty or product liability claim against us, or a requirement that we participate in a product recall, could have a material adverse effect on our earnings.
We may incur further impairment and restructuring charges that could materially affect our profitability.
We have taken approximately $262 million in impairment and restructuring charges during the last five years. Changes in business or economic conditions, or our business strategy, may result in additional restructuring programs and may require us to take additional charges in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on our earnings.
Environmental laws and regulations impose substantial costs and limitations on our operations and environmental compliance may be more costly than we expect.
We are subject to the risk of substantial environmental liability and limitations on our operations due to environmental laws and regulations. We are subject to extensive federal, state, local and foreign environmental, health and safety laws and regulations concerning matters such as air emissions, wastewater discharges, solid and hazardous waste handling and disposal and the investigation and remediation of contamination. The risks of substantial costs and liabilities related to compliance with these laws and regulations are an inherent part of our business, and future conditions may develop, arise or be discovered that create substantial environmental compliance or remediation liabilities and costs.
Compliance with environmental, health and safety legislation and regulatory requirements may prove to be more limiting and costly than we anticipate. To date, we have committed significant expenditures in our efforts to achieve and maintain compliance with these requirements at our facilities, and we expect that we will continue to make significant expenditures related to such compliance in the future. New laws and regulations, including those which may relate to emissions of greenhouse gases, stricter enforcement of existing laws and regulations, the discovery of previously unknown contamination or the imposition of new clean-up requirements could require us to incur costs or become the basis for new or increased liabilities that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. From time to time, we may be subject to legal proceedings brought by private parties or governmental authorities with respect to environmental matters, including matters involving alleged property damage or personal injury.
7
Unexpected equipment failures or other disruptions of our operations may increase our costs and reduce our sales and earnings due to production curtailments or shutdowns.
Interruptions in production capabilities, especially in our Steel segment, would inevitably increase our production costs and reduce sales and earnings for the affected period. In addition to equipment failures, our facilities are also subject to the risk of catastrophic loss due to unanticipated events such as fires, explosions or violent weather conditions. Our manufacturing processes are dependent upon critical pieces of equipment, such as furnaces, continuous casters and rolling equipment, as well as electrical equipment, such as transformers, and this equipment may, on occasion, be out of service as a result of unanticipated failures. In the future, we may experience material plant shutdowns or periods of reduced production as a result of these types of equipment failures.
The global nature of our business exposes us to foreign currency fluctuations that may affect our asset values, results of operations and competitiveness.
We are exposed to the risks of currency exchange rate fluctuations because a significant portion of our net sales, costs, assets and liabilities, are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. These risks include a reduction in our asset values, net sales, operating income and competitiveness.
For those countries outside the United States where we have significant sales, devaluation in the local currency would reduce the value of our local inventory as presented in our Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, a stronger U.S. dollar would result in reduced revenue, operating profit and shareholders equity due to the impact of foreign exchange translation on our Consolidated Financial Statements. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may make our products more expensive for others to purchase or increase our operating costs, affecting our competitiveness and our profitability.
Changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and other currencies and volatile economic, political and market conditions in emerging market countries have in the past adversely affected our financial performance and may in the future adversely affect the value of our assets located outside the United States, our gross profit and our results of operations.
Global political instability and other risks of international operations may adversely affect our operating costs, revenues and the price of our products.
Our international operations expose us to risks not present in a purely domestic business, including primarily:
|
changes in tariff regulations, which may make our products more costly to export or import; |
|
difficulties establishing and maintaining relationships with local OEMs, distributors and dealers; |
|
import and export licensing requirements; |
|
compliance with a variety of foreign laws and regulations, including unexpected changes in taxation and environmental or other regulatory requirements, which could increase our operating and other expenses and limit our operations; |
|
disadvantages of competing against companies from countries that are not subject to U.S. laws and regulations, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act; |
|
difficulty in staffing and managing geographically diverse operations; and |
|
tax exposures related to cross-border intercompany transfer pricing and other tax risks unique to international operations. |
These and other risks may also increase the relative price of our products compared to those manufactured in other countries, reducing the demand for our products in the markets in which we operate, which could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and earnings.
8
Underfunding of our defined benefit and other postretirement plans has caused and may in the future cause a significant reduction in our shareholders equity.
We recorded a decrease in shareholders equity related to pension and postretirement benefit liabilities in 2011 primarily due to a decrease in discount rates and lower than expected returns on pension and postretirement assets. In the future, we may be required to record additional charges related to pension and other postretirement liabilities as a result of asset returns, discount rate changes or other actuarial adjustments. These charges may be significant and would cause a significant reduction in our shareholders equity.
The underfunded status of our pension plans may require large contributions which may divert funds from other uses.
The underfunded status of our pension plans may require us to make large contributions to such plans. We made cash contributions of approximately $291 million, $230 million and $63 million in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively, to our defined benefit pension plans and currently expect to make cash contributions of approximately $165 million in 2012 to such plans. However, we cannot predict whether changing economic conditions, the future performance of assets in the plans or other factors will lead us or require us to make contributions in excess of our current expectations, diverting funds we would otherwise apply to other uses.
Our defined benefit plans assets and liabilities are substantial and expenses and contributions related to those plans are affected by factors outside our control, including the performance of plan assets, interest rates, actuarial data and experience, and changes in laws and regulations.
Our defined benefit pension plans had assets with an estimated value of approximately $2.6 billion and liabilities with an estimated value of approximately $3.1 billion, both as of December 31, 2011. Our future expense and funding obligations for the defined benefit pension plans depend upon a number of factors, including the level of benefits provided for by the plans, the future performance of assets set aside in trusts for these plans, the level of interest rates used to determine the discount rate to calculate the amount of liabilities, actuarial data and experience and any changes in government laws and regulations. In addition, if the various investments held by our pension trusts do not perform as expected or the liabilities increase as a result of discount rates and other actuarial changes, our pension expense and required contributions would increase and, as a result, could materially adversely affect our business. Due to the value of our defined benefit plan assets and liabilities, even a minor decrease in interest rates, to the extent not offset by contributions or asset returns, could increase our obligations under such plans. We may be legally required to make contributions to the pension plans in the future in excess of our current expectations, and those contributions could be material.
Work stoppages or similar difficulties could significantly disrupt our operations, reduce our revenues and materially affect our earnings.
A work stoppage at one or more of our facilities could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Also, if one or more of our customers were to experience a work stoppage, that customer would likely halt or limit purchases of our products, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We are subject to a wide variety of domestic and foreign laws and regulations that could adversely affect our results of operations, cash flow or financial condition.
We are subject to a wide variety of domestic and foreign laws and regulations, and legal compliance risks, including securities laws, tax laws, employment and pension-related laws, competition laws, U.S. and foreign export and trading laws, and laws governing improper business practices. We are affected by new laws and regulations, and changes to existing laws and regulations, including interpretations by courts and regulators.
Compliance with the laws and regulations described above or with other applicable foreign, federal, state, and local laws and regulations currently in effect or that may be adopted in the future could materially adversely affect our competitive position, operating results, financial condition, and liquidity.

If we are unable to attract and retain key personnel our business could be materially adversely affected.
Our business substantially depends on the continued service of key members of our management. The loss of the services of a significant number of members of our management could have a material adverse effect on our business. Our future success will also depend on our ability to attract and retain highly skilled personnel, such as engineering, finance, marketing and senior management professionals. Competition for these employees is intense, and we could experience difficulty from time to time in hiring and retaining the personnel necessary to support our business. If we do not succeed in retaining our current employees and attracting new high quality employees, our business could be materially adversely affected.
We may not realize the improved operating results that we anticipate from past and future acquisitions and we may experience difficulties in integrating acquired businesses.
We seek to grow, in part, through strategic acquisitions and joint ventures, which are intended to complement or expand our businesses, and expect to continue to do so in the future. These acquisitions involve challenges and risks. In the event that we do not successfully integrate these acquisitions into our existing operations so as to realize the expected return on our investment, our results of operations, cash flow or financial condition could be adversely affected.
Our operating results depend in part on continued successful research, development and marketing of new and/or improved products and services, and there can be no assurance that we will continue to successfully introduce new products and services.
The success of new and improved products and services depends on their initial and continued acceptance by our customers. Our businesses are affected, to varying degrees, by technological change and corresponding shifts in customer demand, which could result in unpredictable product transitions or shortened life cycles. We may experience difficulties or delays in the research, development, production, or marketing of new products and services which may prevent us from recouping or realizing a return on the investments required to bring new products and services to market. The end result could be a negative impact on our operating results.

The S&P Steel Index comprises the steel portion of the peer group index. This index is comprised of AK Steel, Allegheny Technologies, Cliffs Natural Resources, Nucor and US Steel. The remaining portion of the peer group index is a self constructed bearing index that consists of five companies. These five companies are Kaydon, JTEKT, NSK, NTN and SKF Group. The last four are non-US bearing companies that are based in Japan (JTEKT, NSK, NTN), and Sweden (SKF Group).

Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
(Dollars in millions, except per share data)
OVERVIEW
The Timken Company (Timken or the Company) designs, manufactures, sells and services highly-engineered anti-friction bearings and assemblies, high-quality alloy steels and mechanical power transmission systems, as well as provides a broad spectrum of related products and services. The Company has four operating segments: (1) Mobile Industries; (2) Process Industries; (3) Aerospace and Defense; and (4) Steel. The following is a description of the Companys operating segments:
|
Mobile Industries provides bearings, mechanical power transmission components, drive- and roller-chains, augers and related products and services to original equipment manufacturers and suppliers of agricultural, construction and mining equipment, passenger cars, light trucks, medium and heavy-duty trucks, rail cars and locomotives, as well as to automotive and heavy truck aftermarket distributors. |
|
Process Industries provides bearings, mechanical power transmission components, industrial chains, and related products and services to original equipment manufacturers and suppliers of power transmission, energy and heavy industries machinery and equipment. This includes rolling mills, cement and aggregate processing equipment, paper mills, sawmills, printing presses, cranes, hoists, drawbridges, wind energy turbines, gear drives, drilling equipment, coal conveyors, coal crushers, marine and food processing equipment. This segment also serves the aftermarket through its global network of authorized industrial distributors. |
|
Aerospace and Defense provides bearings, helicopter transmission systems, rotor head assemblies, turbine engine components, gears and other precision flight-critical components for commercial and military aviation applications and provides aftermarket services, including repair and overhaul of engines, transmissions and fuel controls, as well as aerospace bearing repair and component reconditioning. Additionally, this segment manufactures precision bearings, higher-level assemblies and sensors for manufacturers of health and positioning control equipment. |
|
Steel produces more than 450 grades of carbon and alloy steel, which are sold as ingots, bars and tubes in a variety of chemistries, lengths and finishes. This segments metallurgical expertise and operational capabilities result in customized solutions for the automotive, industrial and energy sectors. Timken ® specialty steels feature prominently in a wide variety of end products including oil country drill pipe, bits and collars, gears, hubs, axles, crankshafts and connecting rods, bearing races and rolling elements, and bushings, fuel injectors and wind energy shafts. |
The Companys strategy balances corporate aspirations for sustained growth with a determination to optimize the Companys existing business portfolio, thereby generating strong profits and cash flows. Timken pursues its growth strategy through differentiation and expansion.
|
For differentiation, the Company leverages its technological capabilities to enhance existing products and services and to create new products that capture value for its customers. The Company recently broadened its product offering by expanding a line of spherical, cylindrical and housed bearings, developing new products and services including the new Ecoturn ® seal for the railroad industry and introducing numerous new custom-developed grades of specialty alloy steel. |
|
Regarding expansion, the Companys strategy is to grow in attractive market sectors, with particular emphasis on those industrial markets that value the reliability offered by the Companys products and create significant aftermarket demand, thereby providing a lifetime of opportunity in both product sales and services. The Companys strategy also encompasses expanding its portfolio in new geographic spaces with an emphasis in Asia. The Companys acquisition strategy is directed at complementing its existing portfolio and expanding the Companys market position globally. |
Simultaneously, the Company works to optimize its existing business with specific initiatives aimed at transformation and execution. This includes diversifying the overall portfolio of businesses and products to create further value and profitability, which can include addressing or repositioning underperforming product lines and segments, revising market sector or geographic strategies and divesting non-strategic assets. The Company drives execution by embracing a continuous improvement culture that is charged with lowering costs, eliminating waste, increasing efficiency, encouraging organizational agility and building greater brand equity.
17
The following items highlight certain of the Companys more significant strategic accomplishments in 2011:
|
In October 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of Drives LLC (Drives) for $92 million. Drives is a leading manufacturer of highly engineered drive-chains, roller-chains and conveyor augers for the agricultural and industrial applications. Based in Fulton, Illinois, Drives employs 430 associates and had trailing 12-month sales through September 2011 of approximately $100 million. Sales and EBIT for the Timken Drives business is reported in the Companys Mobile Industries and Process Industries segments based on customer application. |
|
In August 2011, the Company and The University of Akron announced an open-innovation agreement to accelerate technology. The two organizations plan to combine their expertise in materials and surface engineering technologies at newly established laboratories in The University of Akrons College of Engineering. |
|
In July 2011, the Company and Stark State College broke ground on a jointly developed 18,000 square foot Wind Energy Research and Development Center in Canton, Ohio, on the Stark State College campus. This new center will be focused on advanced development of bearing systems for wind turbines and other ultra-large applications. |
|
In July 2011, the Company acquired the assets of Philadelphia Gear Corp. (Philadelphia Gear), a leading provider of high-performance gear drives and components with a strong focus on value-added aftermarket capabilities in the industrial and military marine sectors, for $200 million. Based in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, with approximately 220 associates, Philadelphia Gear had trailing 12-month sales through June 2011 of approximately $100 million. The Timken Gears and Services business is included in the Process Industries segment. |
|
In 2011, the Company launched initiatives to enhance productivity and increase output at two of its Canton, Ohio steel facilities. These changes will effectively create new capacity at both of these steel facilities to support growing demand for finished bar products and billets for tubing product which serve customers in the global industrial, oil and gas, and mobile markets. These initiatives include an investment of approximately $35 million for an in-line forge press at the Companys Faircrest Steel Plant. |
|
In August 2011, the Company announced that it is evaluating an investment of approximately $225 million at its Faircrest Steel Plant. The potential investment would be expected to increase capacity, expand product range and strengthen the competitiveness of Timkens specialty alloy steel bars business. A ladle refiner and a new large-bloom continuous caster would be key components of this investment and would likely target production in 2014. The Company entered into preliminary discussions with suppliers and government agencies, and opened early negotiations with United Steelworkers of America Local 1123 (union), which represents operative associates in Canton, Ohio, under a collective bargaining agreement scheduled to expire in 2013. The Company and representatives of the Union have tentatively agreed on a five-year contract to replace the existing labor agreement. A ratification vote has been scheduled for February 21, 2012. |

The Company reported net sales for 2011 of $5.2 billion, compared to $4.1 billion in 2010, a 27.5% increase. The increase in sales was primarily due to higher volume across all business segments except for the Aerospace and Defense segment, higher surcharges, pricing, the impact of acquisitions and the effect of currency rate changes. In 2011, net income per diluted share was $4.59, compared to net income per diluted share of $2.81 in 2010. The Companys net income for 2011 reflects continued improvement in the end market sectors served by the Mobile Industries, Process Industries and Steel segments. In addition, net income for 2011 reflects higher surcharges and pricing and the impact of acquisitions, partially offset by higher raw material and logistics costs and selling, general and administrative expenses.
The income from discontinued operations recognized in 2010 was the result of favorable working capital adjustments from the sale of the Companys Needle Roller Bearings (NRB) operations, completed in December 2009.
Outlook
The Company expects higher sales in the range of approximately 5% to 8% in 2012 compared to 2011, primarily driven by higher volumes across the Process Industries, Aerospace and Defense and Steel business segments, as well as favorable pricing and the full-year impact of acquisitions completed in 2011, partially offset by the effect of currency-rate changes. The Company expects to leverage sales growth from these segments to drive improved operating performance. However, the strengthening margins will be partially offset by lower utilization of manufacturing capacity, higher raw material costs and slightly higher selling, general and administrative expenses to support the higher sales.
From a liquidity standpoint, the Company expects to generate cash from operations of approximately $515 million, which is a 143% increase over 2011, primarily driven by lower working capital increases and lower pension and postretirement contributions. Pension and postretirement contributions are expected to be approximately $265 million in 2012 compared to $416 million in 2011. The Company expects to increase capital expenditures to approximately $345 million in 2012 compared to $205 million in 2011.

Net sales for 2011 increased $1.1 billion, or 27.5%, compared to 2010, primarily due to higher volume of approximately $530 million principally driven by the Mobile Industries off-highway and rail market sectors, increases in Process Industries distribution channels demand and the Steel segments industrial and oil and gas market sectors. In addition, the increase in sales reflects higher surcharges of approximately $225 million, higher pricing and favorable sales mix of approximately $185 million, the impact of acquisitions of approximately $120 million and the effect of currency rate changes of approximately $55 million. The favorable impact from acquisitions for 2011 was primarily due to the acquisitions of Philadelphia Gear in July 2011 and Drives in October 2011, as well as the acquisition of QM Bearings and Power Transmission, Inc. (QM Bearings), completed in September 2010.

The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $62.4 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to higher salaries and related costs to support higher sales volume, as well as higher expense related to incentive compensation plans of approximately $15 million. Selling, general and administrative expenses for 2010 benefited from a favorable adjustment to the allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $10 million. In addition, the acquisitions of Philadelphia Gear and Drives added approximately $15 million of selling, general and administrative expenses for 2011. Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, decreased in 2011 compared to 2010 as a result of the Companys ability to effectively leverage these costs against higher sales.

Business Segments:
Effective January 1, 2011, the primary measurement used by management to measure the financial performance of each segment is EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes). Prior to January 1, 2011, the primary measurement used by management to measure the financial performance of each segment was adjusted EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes, excluding the effect of impairment and restructuring, manufacturing rationalization and integration charges, one-time gains or losses on the disposal of non-strategic assets, allocated receipts received or payments made under the U.S. Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act (CDSOA) and gains and losses on the dissolution of subsidiaries). The change in 2011 was primarily due to the completion of most of the Companys previously-announced restructuring initiatives. Segment results for 2010 and 2009 have been reclassified to conform to the 2011 presentation of segments. Refer to Note 14 Segment Information in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the reconciliation of EBIT by segment to consolidated income before income taxes.
The presentation below reconciles the changes in net sales for each segment reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP to net sales adjusted to remove the effects of acquisitions made in 2011 and 2010 and currency exchange rates. The effects of acquisitions and currency exchange rates are removed to allow investors and the Company to meaningfully evaluate the percentage change in net sales on a comparable basis from period to period. During the third quarter of 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Philadelphia Gear, which is part of the Process Industries segment. During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of Drives, the results of which are reported in the Mobile Industries and Process Industries segments based on customer application. During the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of City Scrap and Salvage Co. (City Scrap), which is part of the Steel segment. During the third quarter of 2010, the Company completed the acquisition of QM Bearings, which is part of the Process Industries segment. The year 2010 represents the base year for which the effects of currency are measured; as such, currency is assumed to be zero for 2010.

The Steel segments net sales for 2011, excluding the effects of acquisitions and currency-rate changes, increased 43.3% compared to 2010, due to higher volume of approximately $240 million, higher surcharges of approximately $210 million, higher pricing of approximately $80 million and favorable sales mix of approximately $60 million. The higher volume was experienced across all market sectors, primarily driven by an 80% increase in oil and gas and a 26% increase in industrial. Surcharges increased to $572.8 million in 2011, from $362.7 million in 2010. Approximately 40% of the increase in surcharges was a result of higher volumes. Surcharges are a pricing mechanism that the Company uses to recover scrap steel, energy and certain alloy costs, which are derived from published monthly indices. The average scrap index for 2011 was $482 per ton, compared to $426 per ton for 2010. Steel shipments for 2011 were 1,286,000 tons, compared to 1,026,000 tons for 2010, an increase of 25%. The Steel segments average selling price, including surcharges, was $1,522 per ton for 2011, compared to an average selling price of $1,325 per ton for 2010. The increase in the average selling prices was primarily the result of higher surcharges and base prices. The higher surcharges were the result of higher prices for certain input raw materials, especially scrap steel and nickel.
The Steel segments EBIT increased $124.5 million in 2011 compared to 2010, primarily due to higher surcharges of approximately $210 million, pricing and sales mix of approximately $130 million and the impact of higher sales volume of approximately $85 million, partially offset by higher raw material costs of $250 million, higher logistics costs of approximately $25 million and higher LIFO expense. In 2011, the Steel segment recognized LIFO expense of $15.2 million, compared to LIFO expense of $2.8 million in 2010. Raw material costs consumed in the manufacturing process, including scrap steel, alloys and energy, increased 22% in 2011 compared to the prior year, to an average cost of $555 per ton.
Sales for the Steel segment are expected to increase 5% to 10% for 2012 compared to 2011, primarily due to higher average selling prices and slightly higher volume. The Company expects stronger demand, driven by a 13% increase in oil and gas market sectors and a 5% increase in mobile market sectors. EBIT for the Steel segment is expected to increase in 2012 compared to 2011 as higher pricing more than offsets higher raw material costs. Scrap, alloy and energy costs are expected to increase in the near term from current levels as global industrial production improves and then levels off.

The Company reported net sales for 2010 of $4.1 billion, compared to $3.1 billion in 2009, a 29.1% increase. Sales in 2010 were higher across all business segments except for the Aerospace and Defense segment. The increase in sales was primarily driven by strong demand from the Mobile Industries and Steel segments and the industrial distribution channel within the Process Industries segment, as well as higher surcharges, partially offset by lower sales in the Aerospace and Defense segment. For 2010, diluted earnings per share were $2.81, compared to a net loss per share of $1.39 for 2009. Income from continuing operations per diluted share was $2.73 for 2010, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $0.64 for 2009.
The Companys results for 2010 reflect the improvement of the end-market sectors served principally by the Mobile Industries and Steel segments, higher surcharges, improved manufacturing performance, lower restructuring costs and the favorable impact of prior-year restructuring initiatives, partially offset by lower demand from aerospace and defense customers, higher raw material costs and related LIFO expense and higher expense related to incentive compensation plans.
The income from discontinued operations recognized in 2010 is the result of favorable working capital adjustments from the sale of the Companys NRB operations, completed in December 2009, while the loss from discontinued operations was due to the negative impact of the deteriorating global economy on NRBs business operations.

Refer to Note 10 Impairment and Restructuring in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further details by segment.
Workforce Reductions
In 2009, the Company began the realignment of its organization to improve efficiency and reduce costs as a result of the economic downturn that began during the latter part of 2008. The initiative was completed in 2010 and included both selling and administrative cost reductions, as well as manufacturing workforce reductions. During 2010, the Company recorded $5.6 million of severance and related benefit costs to eliminate approximately 200 associates. Of the $5.6 million charge for 2010, $2.0 million related to the Aerospace and Defense segment, $1.6 million related to the Process Industries segment, $1.4 million related to the Mobile Industries segment and $0.6 million related to Corporate positions. During 2009, the Company recorded $42.9 million of severance and related benefit costs, to eliminate approximately 3,280 manufacturing associates. Of the $42.9 million charge, $26.0 million related to the Mobile Industries segment, $8.5 million related to the Process Industries segment, $3.3 million related to the Steel segment, $3.1 million related to the Aerospace and Defense segment and $2.0 million related to Corporate positions.
Torrington Campus
On July 20, 2009, the Company sold the remaining portion of its Torrington, Connecticut office complex. In anticipation of the loss that the Company expected to record upon completion of the sale of this property, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $6.4 million during the second quarter of 2009.
26
Mobile Industries
In March 2007, the Company announced the closure of its manufacturing facility in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The Company completed the closure of this manufacturing facility on March 31, 2010. During 2010, the Company recorded $4.4 million of exit costs, $1.3 million of severance and related benefit costs and $1.1 million of impairment charges associated with the closure of this facility. The exit costs were primarily due to site remediation costs. During 2009, the Company recorded $5.2 million of severance and related benefit costs and $1.7 million of exit costs associated with the closure of this facility.
In 2009, the Company recorded impairment charges of $71.7 million for certain fixed assets in the United States, Canada, France and China related to several automotive product lines. The Company reviewed these assets for impairment during the fourth quarter due to declining sales and as part of the Companys initiative to exit programs where adequate returns could not be obtained through pricing initiatives. Incorporating this information into its annual long-term forecasting process, the Company determined the undiscounted projected future cash flows for these product lines could not support the carrying value of these asset groups. The Company then arrived at fair value by either valuing the assets in use where the assets were still producing product or in exchange where the assets had been idled.
In addition to the above charges, the Company recorded $3.1 million of environmental exit costs in 2010 at the site of its former plant in Columbus, Ohio.
Process Industries
In 2009, the Company recorded impairment charges of $27.7 million, exit costs of $1.6 million and severance and related benefits of $0.6 million related to the rationalization of its three bearing plants in Canton, Ohio. In 2009, the Company closed two of the three bearing plants. The significant impairment charge was recorded during the second quarter of 2009 as a result of the rapid deterioration of the market sectors served by one of the rationalized plants resulting in the carrying value of the fixed assets for this plant exceeding their projected future cash flows. The Company then arrived at fair value by either valuing the assets in use, where the assets were still producing product, or in exchange, where the assets had been idled. The fair value was determined based on market comparisons of similar assets. In 2010, the Company recorded $1.0 million of exit costs as a result of Process Industries rationalization plans primarily due to demolition costs.
In October 2009, the Company announced the consolidation of its distribution centers in Bucyrus, Ohio and Spartanburg, South Carolina into a leased facility near the existing Spartanburg location. The closure of the Bucyrus Distribution Center was completed in June 2011. This initiative is expected to deliver annual pretax savings of approximately $4 million to $8 million. During 2009, the Company recorded $4.5 million of severance and related benefit costs related to this closure.
Aerospace and Defense
In 2010, the Company recorded fixed asset impairment charges of $2.0 million at its location in Mesa, Arizona. The impairment charges were recorded as a result of the carrying value of certain machinery and equipment exceeding their expected future cash flows.

Interest expense for 2010 decreased compared to 2009 primarily due to lower average debt levels, partially offset by the amortization of deferred financing costs associated with the refinancing of the Companys former $500 million Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (Former Senior Credit Facility) and the issuance of $250 million aggregate principal amount of fixed-rate 6% unsecured senior notes (Senior Notes), both of which occurred in the third quarter of 2009. Interest income increased for 2010 compared to 2009 due to significantly higher average invested cash balances in 2010.

Effective tax rate |
33.5% | 29.9% | - | 360 | bps |
The effective tax rate on the pretax income for 2010 was favorable relative to the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to earnings in certain foreign jurisdictions where the effective tax rate is less than 35%, the U.S. manufacturing deduction, the U.S. research tax credit and the net effect of other U.S. tax items, partially offset by losses at certain foreign subsidiaries where no tax benefit could be recorded, and U.S. state and local taxes. The effective tax rate for 2010 also includes the net impact of a $21.6 million charge in the first quarter to record the deferred tax impact of the PPACA, partially offset by a $19.8 million tax benefit in the fourth quarter to record the benefit of contributions made to a newly established VEBA trust to fund certain retiree healthcare costs.
The effective tax rate on the pretax loss for 2009 was unfavorable relative to the U.S. federal statutory tax rate primarily due to losses at certain foreign subsidiaries where no tax benefit could be recorded. This item was partially offset by the U.S. research tax credit and the net effect of other items.

In December 2009, the Company completed the divestiture of its NRB operations to JTEKT Corporation (JTEKT). Discontinued operations represent operating results of the NRB operations for 2009 and the gain (loss) on disposal of these operations for 2010 and 2009. For 2009, the operating results, net of tax, of the NRB operations were a loss of $60.0 million, primarily due to the deterioration of the markets served by the NRB operations and higher restructuring charges in 2009. The restructuring charges include a pretax impairment loss of $33.7 million and pension curtailment of $2.2 million, as well as other pretax charges related to severance and related benefits of $16.0 million. The impairment loss was the result of the projected proceeds from the sale of NRB operations being lower than the net book value of the net assets expected to be transferred as a result of the sale of the NRB operations to JTEKT. In 2009, the Company recorded a loss on disposal of $12.6 million, net of tax.
In 2010, the Company recognized a gain on disposal of $7.4 million, net of income taxes, as a result of a favorable working capital adjustment. The working capital adjustment was partially offset by a correction of an error of $1.3 million, net of income taxes, related to a foreign currency translation adjustment for the Companys Canadian operations that were sold as part of the NRB divestiture. The Company realized during the third quarter of 2010 that this adjustment should have been written-off in the fourth quarter of 2009 and recognized as part of the loss on the sale of the NRB operations. Management of the Company concluded the effect of this adjustment was immaterial to the Companys 2009 and 2010 financial statements. Refer to Note 2 Acquisitions and Divestitures in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion.

For 2010, the net income attributable to noncontrolling interest was $2.1 million, compared to a net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest of $4.6 million in 2009. The increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in 2010 was primarily due to improved market conditions served by subsidiaries in which the Company holds less than 100% ownership.
In 2009, the loss attributable to noncontrolling interest increased by $6.1 million due to a correction of an error related to the $18.4 million goodwill impairment loss the Company recorded in the fourth quarter of 2008 for the Mobile Industries segment. In recording the goodwill impairment loss in the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company did not recognize that a portion of the goodwill impairment loss related to two separate subsidiaries in India and South Africa in which the Company holds less than 100% ownership. As a result, the Companys 2008 financial statements were understated by $6.1 million and the Companys first quarter 2009 financial statements were overstated by $6.1 million. Management concluded the effect of this adjustment was not material to the Companys 2009 or 2008 financial statements.
Business Segments:
The presentation below reconciles the changes in net sales for each segment reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP to net sales adjusted to remove the effects of acquisitions made in 2010 and currency exchange rates. The effects of acquisitions and currency exchange rates are removed to allow investors and the Company to meaningfully evaluate the percentage change in net sales on a comparable basis from period to period. During the third quarter of 2010, the Company completed the acquisition of QM Bearings. QM Bearings is part of the Process Industries segment. The acquisition of City Scrap, completed on December 31, 2010, had no impact on the 2010 operating results. The year 2009 represents the base year for which the effects of currency are measured; as a result, currency is assumed to be zero for 2009.

The Mobile Industries segments net sales, excluding the effects of currency-rate changes, increased 25.1% in 2010 compared to 2009, primarily due to higher volume of approximately $220 million and higher pricing of approximately $90 million. The higher sales were seen across all market sectors, led by a 40% increase in heavy truck, a 33% increase in off-highway and a 28% increase in light vehicles. EBIT was higher in 2010 compared to 2009 primarily due to the impact of higher volume and pricing of approximately $180 million, lower impairment and restructuring charges of approximately $95 million, favorable sales mix of approximately $40 million and improved manufacturing utilization of approximately $25 million. These increases were partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses of approximately $30 million and LIFO expense of approximately $25 million.

The Process Industries segments net sales, excluding the effect of acquisitions and currency-rate changes, increased 10.9% for 2010 compared to 2009, primarily due to higher volume of approximately $80 million. The increased sales resulted from a 20% increase in the industrial distribution channel, a 116% increase in global wind energy and a 10% increase in gear drives. These increases were partially offset by a 26% decline in the metals sector. EBIT was higher in 2010 compared to 2009 due to the impact of increased volume of approximately $45 million, lower impairment and restructuring charges of approximately $40 million and better manufacturing utilization of approximately $35 million. These increases were partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses of approximately $30 million and higher raw material costs and related LIFO expense of $25.0 million.

The Steel segments net sales for 2010, excluding the effects of currency-rate changes, increased 90.1% compared to 2009, primarily due to higher volume of approximately $445 million, across all market sectors, and higher surcharges of approximately $250 million, partially offset by an unfavorable sales mix of approximately $50 million. Surcharges increased to $350.4 million in 2010 from $100.1 million in 2009. The average scrap index for 2010 was $426 per ton, compared to $258 per ton for 2009. Steel shipments for 2010 were 1,026,000 tons, compared to 595,000 tons for 2009, an increase of 72%. The Steel segments average selling price, including surcharges, was $1,323 per ton for 2010, compared to an average selling price of $1,202 per ton for 2009. The increase in the average selling prices was primarily the result of higher surcharges, partially offset by unfavorable sales mix. The higher surcharges were the result of higher prices for certain input raw materials, especially scrap steel, molybdenum and nickel.
The Steel segments EBIT increased $209.6 million in 2010 compared to 2009, primarily due to higher surcharges, the impact of higher sales volume of approximately $175 million and lower manufacturing costs of approximately $110 million, partially offset by the impact of higher raw material costs of approximately $255 million and higher LIFO expense of approximately $40 million. In 2010, the Steel segment recognized LIFO expense of $2.8 million, compared to LIFO income of $37.1 million in 2009. Raw material costs consumed in the manufacturing process, including scrap steel, alloys and energy, increased 38% in 2010 compared to the prior year, to an average cost of $455 per ton.

Refer to the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for a discussion of the decrease in cash and cash equivalents. Accounts receivable, net increased as a result of the higher sales in the fourth quarter of 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010, as well as the acquisitions of Philadelphia Gear and Drives. Inventories increased primarily to support higher sales volume and expected future demand. Inventories also increased as a result of acquisitions. The increase in deferred income taxes was primarily due to an increase in book-tax differences related to accrued liabilities, primarily related to incentive-based compensation, and other employee benefit accruals. The increase in other current assets was primarily due to an increase in short-term marketable securities of approximately $30 million, partially offset by the sale of the Companys equity investment in ICS, which had been classified as assets held for sale.

The increase in goodwill was primarily due to the acquisitions of Philadelphia Gear and Drives. The increase in other intangible assets was primarily due to current-year acquisitions, partially offset by amortization expense recognized during 2011. The increase in deferred income taxes was primarily due to increases in the Companys accrued pension liabilities during 2011, partially offset by contributions to a VEBA trust for retiree healthcare costs.

The increase in accounts payable was primarily due to higher sales volume. The increase in accrued salaries, wages and benefits was the result of accruals for current-year incentive plans. The increase in income taxes payable was primarily due to the provision for income taxes in 2011 as a result of an increase in income before income taxes and the reclassification of approximately $40 million from other non-current liabilities as a result of an expected closure of a U.S. federal tax audit within the next 12 months. These increases were partially offset by income tax payments during 2011.

The increase in accrued pension cost was primarily due to a decrease in the discount rates used to calculate the projected benefit obligation, as well as returns on pension assets below the expected rate of return of 8.5%, partially offset by contributions of approximately $291 million to the Companys defined benefit pension plans during 2011. The decrease in accrued postretirement benefits cost was primarily due to a contribution of $125 million to a VEBA trust to fund healthcare benefits. The decrease of other non-current liabilities was primarily due to the reclassification of approximately $40 million to income taxes payable for an expected closure of a U.S. federal tax audit within the next 12 months.

Earnings invested in the business increased in 2011 by net income of $454.3 million, partially offset by dividends declared of $76.0 million. The increase in the accumulated other comprehensive loss was primarily due to a $218.2 million net after-tax pension and postretirement liability adjustment and a $48.5 million decrease in foreign currency translation. The pension and postretirement liability adjustment was primarily due the realization of an actuarial loss in 2011 due to a decrease in the discount rates for defined benefit pension and postretirement plans, as well as lower than expected returns on plan assets, partially offset by the amortization of prior-year service costs and actuarial losses for these plans. The decrease in the foreign currency translation adjustment was due to the U.S, dollar strengthening relative to other currencies, such as the Indian rupee, the South African rand, the Polish zloty, the Brazilian real, Canadian dollar and the Euro. Treasury shares increased during 2011 as a result of the Company repurchasing stock under its 2006 common stock purchase plan.

This change was primarily due to higher pension and other postretirement benefit contributions and payments as well as higher cash used by working capital items, partially offset by higher net income. Pension and other postretirement benefit contributions and payments were $456.0 million in 2011, compared to $337.0 million in 2010. Net income attributable to The Timken Company increased $179.5 million in 2011 compared to 2010.

Investing activities used cash of $508.0 million in 2011 after using cash of $152.9 million in 2010 as a result of an increase in acquisitions of $269.5 million and an increase in capital expenditures of $89.5 million. The increase in acquisitions related to the purchase of Philadelphia Gear, which was completed in July 2011, and the purchase of Drives, which was completed in October 2011.
The net cash used by financing activities was $106.6 million in 2011 after using cash of $32.9 million in 2010. The increase in cash used for financing activities was primarily due to a $26.6 million reduction in proceeds from stock option exercises, a $24.7 million increase in cash dividends paid to shareholders and a $14.6 million increase in the Companys repurchases of its common stock in 2011 compared to 2010. The Company purchased one million shares of its common stock for an aggregate of $43.8 million in 2011 after purchasing one million shares of its common stock for an aggregate of $29.2 million in 2010.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Total debt was $515.1 million and $513.7 million at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Debt exceeded cash and cash equivalents by $46.7 million at December 31, 2011. Cash and cash equivalents exceeded total debt by $363.4 million at December 31, 2010. Debt in excess of cash as a percentage of total capital was 2.2% at December 31, 2011, compared to cash in excess of debt as a percentage of total capital of 23.0% at December 31, 2010.

The Company presents net debt (cash) because it believes net debt (cash) is more representative of the Companys financial position than total debt due to the amount of cash and cash equivalents.
At December 31, 2011, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under its two-year Asset Receivable Securitization Financing Agreement (Asset Securitization Agreement), which provides for borrowings up to $150 million, subject to certain borrowing base limitations, and is secured by certain domestic trade receivables of the Company. The Company had full availability under the Asset Securitization Agreement at December 31, 2011.
On May 11, 2011, the Company amended and restated its Senior Credit Facility, replacing the Former Senior Credit Facility, which was due to expire on July 10, 2012. The Senior Credit Facility now matures on May 11, 2016. At December 31, 2011, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility but had letters of credit outstanding totaling $17.2 million, which reduced the availability under the Senior Credit Facility to $482.8 million. Under the Senior Credit Facility, the Company has two financial covenants: a consolidated leverage ratio and a consolidated interest coverage ratio. At December 31, 2011, the Company was in full compliance with the covenants under the Senior Credit Facility and its other debt agreements. The maximum consolidated leverage ratio permitted under the Senior Credit Facility is 3.25 to 1.0. As of December 31, 2011, the Companys consolidated leverage ratio was 0.54 to 1.0. The minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio permitted under the Senior Credit Facility is 4.0 to 1.0. As of December 31, 2011, the Companys consolidated interest coverage ratio was 29.12 to 1.0.
The interest rate under the Senior Credit Facility is based on the Companys consolidated leverage ratio. In addition, the Company pays a facility fee based on the consolidated leverage ratio multiplied by the aggregate commitments of all of the lenders under the Senior Credit Facility.
Other sources of liquidity include lines of credit for certain of the Companys foreign subsidiaries, which provide for borrowings up to $266.2 million. The majority of these lines are uncommitted. At December 31, 2011, the Company had borrowings outstanding of $54.1 million against these lines, which reduced the availability under these facilities to $212.1 million.
35
The Company expects that any cash requirements in excess of cash on hand and cash generated from operating activities will be met by the committed funds available under its Asset Securitization Agreement and the Senior Credit Facility. Management believes it has sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations through at least the term of the Senior Credit Facility.
At December 31, 2011, approximately $247 million, or 53.1%, of the Companys cash and cash equivalents resided in jurisdictions outside the United States. Repatriation of these funds to the United States could be subject to government restrictions and domestic and foreign taxes. Part of the Companys strategy is to expand its portfolio in new geographic spaces. This may include making investments in facilities and equipment and potential new acquisitions. The Company plans to fund these investments, as well as meet working capital requirements, with cash and cash equivalents and unused lines of credit within the geographic location of these investments when possible.
The Company expects to remain in compliance with its debt covenants. However, the Company may need to limit its borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility or other facilities in order to remain in compliance. As of December 31, 2011, the Company could have borrowed the full amounts available under the Senior Credit Facility and Asset Securitization Agreement and would have still been in compliance with its debt covenants.
The Company expects cash from operations in 2012 to improve 143% over 2011 as the Company anticipates higher net income, as well as lower working capital increases and a decrease in pension and postretirement contributions. The Company expects to make approximately $265 million in pension and postretirement contributions in 2012, compared to $416 million in 2011. The Company also expects to increase capital expenditures to $345 million in 2012 compared to $205 million in 2011, which includes the Companys potential investment at its Faircrest steel plant in Canton, Ohio. This investment is dependent on the Company and the United Steelworkers entering into a new collective bargaining agreement.

The interest payments beyond five years primarily relate to medium-term notes that mature over the next 17 years.
As of December 31, 2011, the Company had approximately $87.2 million of total gross unrecognized tax benefits. The Company anticipates a decrease in its unrecognized tax positions of approximately $42 million to $43 million during the next 12 months. The anticipated decrease is primarily due to settlements with tax authorities. Future tax positions are not known at this time and therefore not included in the above summary of the Companys fixed contractual obligations. Refer to Note 15 Income Taxes in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion.
During 2011, the Company made cash contributions of approximately $291 million to its global defined benefit pension plans, of which $276.4 million was discretionary. The Company also contributed $125 million to a VEBA trust to fund retiree healthcare costs. The Company currently expects to make contributions to its global defined benefit pension plans totaling approximately $165 million in 2012, of which $145 million is discretionary. The Company also currently expects to make contributions to a VEBA trust to fund retiree healthcare costs totaling $100 million in 2012. The Company may consider making additional discretionary contributions to either its global defined benefit pension plans or its postretirement benefit plans during 2012. Returns for the Companys global defined benefit pension plan assets in 2011 were below the expected rate of return assumption of 8.5% due to broad decreases in global equity markets. The lower returns negatively impacted the funded status of the plans at the end of 2011 and are expected to result in higher pension expense in future years. The impact of these unfavorable returns, as well as the impact of the lower discount rate for expense in 2012 compared to 2011 will increase pension expense by approximately $19 million in 2012. Returns for the Companys U.S. defined benefit plan pension assets for 2011 were approximately 4.8%.
36
During 2011, the Company purchased one million shares of its common stock for approximately $43.8 million in the aggregate under its 2006 common stock purchase plan. This plan authorizes the Company to buy, in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, up to four million shares of common stock, which are to be held as treasury shares and used for specified purposes, up to an aggregate of $180 million. The authorization expires on December 31, 2012. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had purchased two million shares of its common stock for an aggregate amount of approximately $73.1 million under this plan. On February 10, 2012, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a new common stock purchase plan pursuant to which the Company may purchase up to ten million shares of the Companys common stock. This plan replaces the 2006 common stock purchase plan. The new plan expires on December 31, 2015.
As disclosed in Note 9 Contingencies and Note 15 Income Taxes in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company has exposure for certain legal and tax matters.
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements with unconsolidated entities or other persons.
RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCMENTS
Information required for this item is incorporated by reference to Note 1 Significant Accounting Policies in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The Companys financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. The following paragraphs include a discussion of some critical areas that require a higher degree of judgment, estimates and complexity.
Revenue recognition:
The Company recognizes revenue when title passes to the customer. This occurs at the shipping point except for certain exported goods and certain foreign entities, where title passes when the goods reach their destination. Selling prices are fixed based on purchase orders or contractual arrangements. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are included in net sales and the related costs are included in cost of products sold in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
In July 2011, the Company acquired the assets of Philadelphia Gear Corp. Philadelphia Gear recognizes a portion of their revenues on percentage of completion method. In 2011, the Company recognized approximately $40 million in net sales under the percentage of completion method.
Inventory:
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with approximately 55% valued by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method and the remaining 45% valued by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The majority of the Companys domestic inventories are valued by the LIFO method and all of the Companys international (outside the United States) inventories are valued by the FIFO method. An actual valuation of the inventory under the LIFO method can be made only at the end of each year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations are based on managements estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs. Because these are subject to many factors beyond managements control, annual results may differ from interim results as they are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation. The Company recognized an increase in its LIFO reserve of $23.1 million for 2011, compared to an increase in its LIFO reserve of $26.9 million for 2010.
Goodwill:
The Company tests goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually. The Company performs its annual impairment test during the fourth quarter after the annual forecasting process is completed. Furthermore, goodwill is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Each interim period, management of the Company assesses whether or not an indicator of impairment is present that would necessitate that a goodwill impairment analysis be performed in an interim period other than during the fourth quarter.
The goodwill impairment analysis is a two-step process. Step one compares the carrying amount of the reporting unit to its estimated fair value. To the extent that the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, step two is performed, where the reporting units carrying value of goodwill is compared to the implied fair value of goodwill. To the extent that the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of goodwill, impairment exists and must be recognized.
37
The Company reviews goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level. The Companys reporting units are the same as its reportable segments: Mobile Industries, Process Industries, Aerospace and Defense and Steel. The Company prepares its goodwill impairment analysis by comparing the estimated fair value of each reporting unit, using an income approach as well as a market approach, with its carrying value.
During 2011, the Company adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-8, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment, which allows companies to assess qualitative factors to determine if goodwill might be impaired and whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. Based on a review of various qualitative factors, management concluded that the goodwill for Process Industries and Steel segments was not impaired and that two-step approach was not required to be performed for these reporting units. Based on a review of various qualitative factors, management concluded that the goodwill for the Aerospace and Defense segment would be tested under the two-step approach. The Mobile Industries segment does not have goodwill.
The income approach requires several assumptions including future sales growth, EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) margins and capital expenditures. The Companys four reporting units each provide their forecast of results for the next three years. These forecasts are the basis for the information used in the discounted cash flow model. The discounted cash flow model also requires the use of a discount rate and a terminal revenue growth rate (the revenue growth rate for the period beyond the three years forecasted by the reporting units), as well as projections of future operating margins (for the period beyond the forecasted three years). During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company used a discount rate for the Aerospace and Defense reporting unit of 12% and a terminal revenue growth rate of 3%.
The market approach requires several assumptions including sales multiples and EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) multiples for comparable companies that operate in the same markets as the Companys reporting units. During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company used sales multiples for the Aerospace and Defense reporting unit of 1.3 and EBITDA multiples of 10.5.
As a result of the goodwill impairment analysis performed during the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company recognized no goodwill impairment charges for the year ended December 31, 2011. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had $307.2 million of goodwill on its Consolidated Balance Sheet, of which $162.1 million was attributable to the Aerospace and Defense segment. See Note 7 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the carrying amount of goodwill by segment. The fair value of this reporting unit was $506.8 million compared to a carrying value of $456.8 million. A 120 basis point increase in the discount rate would have resulted in the Aerospace and Defense segment failing step one of the goodwill impairment analysis, which would have required the completion of step two of the goodwill impairment analysis to arrive at a potential goodwill impairment loss. A 1,300 basis point decrease in the projected cash flows would have resulted in the Aerospace and Defense segment failing step one of the goodwill impairment analysis, which would have required the completion of step two of the goodwill impairment analysis to arrive at a potential goodwill impairment loss.
In 2011, the income approach for the Aerospace and Defense segment was weighted by 70% and the market approach was weighted by 30% in arriving at fair value. This is a change from 2010 when the income approach and the market approach were weighted equally in arriving at fair value. The 70/30 weighting was selected to give consideration for the fact that the metrics for the last twelve months for Aerospace and Defense segment were not reflective of expected performance and the discounted-cash flow model provided a more normalized view of future operating conditions for the Aerospace and Defense segment. Had the Company used a 50/50 weighting, the Company would still have passed step one of the goodwill impairment test for the Aerospace and Defense segment for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Restructuring costs:
The Companys policy is to recognize restructuring costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations, and ASC 712, Compensation and Non-retirement Post-Employment Benefits. Detailed contemporaneous documentation is maintained and updated to ensure that accruals are properly supported. If management determines that there is a change in estimate, the accruals are adjusted to reflect this change.
38
Benefit plans:
The Company sponsors a number of defined benefit pension plans that cover eligible associates. The Company also sponsors several funded and unfunded postretirement plans that provide health care and life insurance benefits for eligible retirees and their dependents. These plans are accounted for in accordance with accounting rules for defined benefit pension plans and postemployment plans.
The measurement of liabilities related to these plans is based on managements assumptions related to future events, including discount rates, rates of return on pension plan assets, rates of compensation increases and health care cost trend rates. Management regularly evaluates these assumptions and adjusts them as required and appropriate. Other plan assumptions are also reviewed on a regular basis to reflect recent experience and the Companys future expectations. Actual experience that differs from these assumptions may affect future liquidity, expense and the overall financial position of the Company. While the Company believes that current assumptions are appropriate, significant differences in actual experience or significant changes in these assumptions may materially affect the Companys pension and other postretirement employee benefit obligations and its future expense and cash flow.
A discount rate is used to calculate the present value of expected future pension and postretirement cash flows as of the measurement date. The Company establishes the discount rate by constructing a portfolio of high-quality corporate bonds and matching the coupon payments and bond maturities to projected benefit payments under the Companys pension and postretirement welfare plans. The bonds included in the portfolio are generally non-callable. A lower discount rate will result in a higher benefit obligation; conversely, a higher discount rate will result in a lower benefit obligation. The discount rate is also used to calculate the annual interest cost, which is a component of net periodic benefit cost.
For expense purposes in 2011, the Company applied a discount rate of 5.75% for the defined benefit pension plans and 5.50% for the postretirement welfare plans. For expense purposes for 2012, the Company will apply a discount rate of 5.00% for the defined benefit pension plans and 4.85% for the postretirement welfare plans. A .25 percentage point reduction in the discount rate would increase net periodic pension benefit cost by approximately $5.0 million for the defined benefit pension plans and $0.5 million for the postretirement welfare plans for 2012.
The expected rate of return on plan assets is determined by analyzing the historical long-term performance of the Companys pension plan assets, as well as the mix of plan assets between equities, fixed income securities and other investments, the expected long-term rate of return expected for those asset classes and long-term inflation rates. Short-term asset performance can differ significantly from the expected rate of return, especially in volatile markets. A lower-than-expected rate of return on pension plan assets will increase pension expense and future contributions. For expense purposes in 2011, the Company applied an expected rate of return of 8.50% for the Companys pension plan assets. For expense purposes for 2012, the Company will apply an expected rate of return on plan assets of 8.25%. A .25 percentage point reduction in the expected rate of return would increase net periodic pension benefit cost by approximately $6.0 million for 2012. At the end of 2010, the Company established a VEBA trust for certain bargained associates retiree medical benefits. For expense purposes in 2011, the Company applied an expected rate of return of 5.0% to the VEBA trust assets. For expense purposes for 2012, the Company will continue to apply an expected rate of return of 5.0% to the VEBA trust assets. A .25 percentage point reduction in the expected rate of return would increase net periodic postretirement benefit cost by approximately $0.5 million for 2012.
For measurement purposes for postretirement benefits, the Company assumed a weighted-average annual rate of increase in per capita cost (health care cost trend rate) for medical benefits of 7.9% for 2012, declining steadily for the next 66 years to 5.0%; and 9.0% for prescription drug benefits for 2012, declining steadily for the next 66 years to 5.0%. The assumed health care cost trend rate may have a significant effect on the amounts reported. A one percentage point increase in the assumed health care cost trend rate would have increased the 2011 total service and interest cost components by $0.8 million and would have increased the postretirement obligation by $15.3 million. A one percentage point decrease would provide corresponding reductions of $0.8 million and $14.2 million, respectively.
The U.S. Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (Medicare Act) provides for prescription drug benefits under Medicare Part D (Medicare Subsidy) and contains a tax-free subsidy to plan sponsors who provide actuarially equivalent prescription plans. The Companys actuary determined that the prescription drug benefit provided by the Companys postretirement plan is considered to be actuarially equivalent to the benefit provided under the Medicare Act. The effects of the Medicare Act include reductions to the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation and net periodic postretirement benefit cost of $63.4 million and $5.6 million, respectively. The 2011 expected Medicare Subsidy was $3.2 million, of which $0.9 million was received prior to December 31, 2011.

Income taxes:
The Company, which is subject to income taxes in the United States and numerous non-U.S. jurisdictions, accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well as net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company records valuation allowances against deferred tax assets by tax jurisdiction when it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. In determining the need for a valuation allowance, the historical and projected financial performance of the entity recording the net deferred tax asset is considered along with any other pertinent information. Net deferred tax assets relate primarily to pension and postretirement benefit obligations in the United States, which the Company believes are more likely than not to result in future tax benefits.
In the ordinary course of the Companys business, there are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate income tax determination is uncertain. The Company is regularly under audit by tax authorities. Accruals for uncertain tax positions are provided for in accordance with the requirements of ASC 740-10. The Company records interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.
Significant management judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities, valuation allowances against deferred tax assets, and accruals for uncertain tax positions.
Other loss reserves:
The Company has a number of loss exposures that are incurred in the ordinary course of business such as environmental claims, product liability, product warranty, litigation and accounts receivable reserves. Establishing loss reserves for these matters requires managements estimate and judgment with regards to risk exposure and ultimate liability or realization. These loss reserves are reviewed periodically and adjustments are made to reflect the most recent facts and circumstances.
OTHER DISCLOSURES
Foreign Currency
Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries are translated at the rate of exchange in effect on the balance sheet date; income and expenses are translated at the average rates of exchange prevailing during the reporting period. Related translation adjustments are reflected as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Foreign currency gains and losses resulting from transactions are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
The Company recognized a foreign currency exchange loss of $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 after recognizing foreign currency exchange gains of $4.3 million and $8.2 million during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company recorded a negative non-cash foreign currency translation adjustment of $48.5 million that decreased shareholders equity, compared to a negative non-cash foreign currency translation adjustment of $5.2 million that decreased shareholders equity for the year ended December 31, 2010. The foreign currency translation adjustments for the year ended December 31, 2011 were negatively impacted by the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies such as the Indian rupee, the South African rand, the Polish zloty, the Brazilian real, the Canadian dollar and the Euro.
Trade Law Enforcement
The U.S. government has an antidumping duty order in effect covering tapered roller bearings from China. The Company is a producer of these bearings in the United States. The U.S. government is currently conducting a review of whether or not this order should continue in place for an additional five years. The U.S. government also had antidumping duty orders in effect on ball bearings from France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United Kingdom. The Company produces ball bearings in the U.S. The ball bearing orders on France, Germany, and Italy were sunset effective September, 2011 and are hence revoked. The ball bearing orders on Japan and the U.K. were sunset by a court order in July, 2011. That court decision, however, is now under appeal by the U.S. International Trade Commission, and the Company.

Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act
The CDSOA provides for distribution of monies collected by U.S. Customs from antidumping cases to qualifying domestic producers where the domestic producers have continued to invest in their technology, equipment and people. The Company received CDSOA receipts of $3.5 million, $5.2 million and $6.2 million in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. In 2011, the Company reported expenses in excess of CDSOA receipts of $1.1 million. The Company reported CDSOA receipts, net of expenses, of $2.0 million and $3.6 million in 2010 and 2009, respectively.
In September 2002, the World Trade Organization (WTO) ruled that CDSOA payments are not consistent with international trade rules. In February 2006, U.S. legislation was enacted that would end CDSOA distributions for dumped imports covered by antidumping duty orders entering the United States after September 30, 2007. Instead, any such antidumping duties collected would remain with the U.S. Treasury. This legislation would be expected to eventually reduce any distributions in years beyond 2007, with distributions eventually ceasing. Several countries have objected that this U.S. legislation is not consistent with WTO rulings, and have been granted retaliation rights by the WTO, typically in the form of increased tariffs on some imported goods from the United States. The European Union and Japan have been retaliating in this fashion against the operation of U.S. law.
In 2006, the U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT) ruled, in two separate decisions, that the procedure for determining recipients eligible to receive CDSOA distributions is unconstitutional. In February 2009, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit reversed both decisions of the CIT. In December 2009, a plaintiff petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to hear a further appeal, but the Supreme Court declined the petition, allowing the appellate court reversals to stand. There are, however, several remaining constitutional challenges to the CDSOA law that are now before the CIT. The Company is unable to determine, at this time, what the ultimate outcome of litigation regarding CDSOA will be.
There are a number of factors that can affect whether the Company receives any CDSOA distributions and the amount of such distributions in any given year. These factors include, among other things, potential additional changes in the law, ongoing and potential additional legal challenges to the law and the administrative operation of the law. Accordingly, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the amount of CDSOA distributions it will receive in future years, if any. It is possible that court rulings might prevent the Company from receiving any CDSOA distributions in 2012 and beyond. Any reduction of CDSOA distributions would reduce the Companys earnings and cash flow.
Quarterly Dividend
On February 10, 2012, the Companys Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.23 per share. The dividend will be paid on March 2, 2012 to shareholders of record as of February 21, 2012. This will be the 359 th consecutive dividend paid on the common stock of the Company.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements set forth in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and in the Companys 2011 Annual Report to Shareholders (including the Companys forecasts, beliefs and expectations) that are not historical in nature are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In particular, Managements Discussion and Analysis on pages 17 through 41 contains numerous forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements generally will be accompanied by words such as anticipate, believe, could, estimate, expect, forecast, guidance, intend, may, possible, potential, predict, project or other similar words, phrases or expressions. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company cautions readers that actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company due to a variety of factors, such as:
a) | deterioration in world economic conditions, including additional adverse effects from the global economic slowdown, terrorism or hostilities. This includes: political risks associated with the potential instability of governments and legal systems in countries in which the Company or its customers conduct business, and changes in currency valuations; |
b) | the effects of fluctuations in customer demand on sales, product mix and prices in the industries in which the Company operates. This includes: the ability of the Company to respond to rapid changes in customer demand, the effects of customer bankruptcies or liquidations, the impact of changes in industrial business cycles, and whether conditions of fair trade continue in the U.S. markets; |
c) | competitive factors, including changes in market penetration, increasing price competition by existing or new foreign and domestic competitors, the introduction of new products by existing and new competitors, and new technology that may impact the way the Companys products are sold or distributed; |
d) | changes in operating costs. This includes: the effect of changes in the Companys manufacturing processes; changes in costs associated with varying levels of operations and manufacturing capacity; availability of raw materials and energy; the Companys ability to mitigate the impact of fluctuations in raw materials and energy costs and the operation of the Companys surcharge mechanism; changes in the expected costs associated with product warranty claims; changes resulting from inventory management and cost reduction initiatives and different levels of customer demands; the effects of unplanned work stoppages; and changes in the cost of labor and benefits; |
e) | the success of the Companys operating plans; the ability to integrate acquired companies; the ability of acquired companies to achieve satisfactory operating results, including results being accretive to earnings; and the Companys ability to maintain appropriate relations with unions that represent Company associates in certain locations in order to avoid disruptions of business; |
f) | unanticipated litigation, claims or assessments. This includes: claims or problems related to intellectual property, product liability or warranty, environmental issues, and taxes; |
g) | changes in worldwide financial markets, including availability of financing and interest rates, which affect: the Companys cost of funds and/or ability to raise capital; the Companys pension obligations and investment performance; and/or customer demand and the ability of customers to obtain financing to purchase the Companys products or equipment that contain the Companys products; and |
h) | those items identified under Item 1A. Risk Factors on pages 6 through 10. |
Additional risks relating to the Companys business, the industries in which the Company operates or the Companys common stock may be described from time to time in the Companys filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All of these risk factors are difficult to predict, are subject to material uncertainties that may affect actual results and may be beyond the Companys control.
Readers are cautioned that it is not possible to predict or identify all of the risks, uncertainties and other factors that may affect future results and that the above list should not be considered to be a complete list. Except as required by the federal securities laws, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
Changes in short-term interest rates related to several separate funding sources impact the Companys earnings. These sources are borrowings under an Asset Securitization Agreement, borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility, floating rate tax-exempt U.S. municipal bonds with a weekly reset mode and short-term bank borrowings at international subsidiaries. If the market rates for short-term borrowings increased by one-percentage-point around the globe, the impact would be an increase in interest expense of $0.9 million with a corresponding decrease in income from continuing operations before income taxes of the same amount. This amount was determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on the Companys borrowing cost, year-end debt balances by category and an estimated impact on the tax-exempt municipal bonds interest rates.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
Fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar compared to foreign currencies, including the Euro, also impact the Companys earnings. The greatest risk relates to products shipped between the Companys European operations and the United States. Foreign currency forward contracts are used to hedge these intercompany transactions. Additionally, hedges are used to cover third-party purchases of product and equipment. As of December 31, 2011, there were $145.2 million of hedges in place. A uniform 10% weakening of the U.S. dollar against all currencies would have resulted in a charge of $4.4 million related to these hedges, which would have partially offset the otherwise favorable impact of the underlying currency fluctuation. In addition to the direct impact of the hedged amounts, changes in exchange rates also affect the volume of sales or foreign currency sales price as competitors products become more or less attractive.
Commodity Price Risk
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is exposed to market risk with respect to commodity price fluctuations, primarily related to our purchases of raw materials and energy, principally scrap steel, other ferrous and non-ferrous metals, alloys and natural gas. Whenever possible, the Company manages its exposure to commodity risks primarily through the use of supplier pricing agreements that enable the Company to establish the purchase prices for certain inputs that are used in our manufacturing and distribution business. Timken utilizes a raw material surcharge as a component of pricing steel to pass through the cost increases of scrap steel and other raw materials, as well as natural gas. From time to time, the Company also uses derivative financial instruments to hedge a portion of its exposure to price risk related to natural gas purchases.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollars in millions, except per share data)
Note 1 Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of The Timken Company and its subsidiaries (the Company). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation. Investments in affiliated companies are accounted for by the equity method, except for Advanced Green Components (AGC), that qualified as a variable interest entity, in which case the investments are consolidated in accordance with accounting rules relating to the consolidation of variable interest entities. The net assets of AGC at December 31, 2011 were $0.6 million.
Revenue Recognition: The Company recognizes revenue when title passes to the customer. This occurs at the shipping point except for certain exported goods and certain foreign entities, where title passes when the goods reach their destination. Selling prices are fixed based on purchase orders or contractual arrangements. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are included in net sales and the related costs are included in cost of products sold in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
The Company acquired the assets of Philadelphia Gear Corp. (Philadelphia Gear) in July, 2011. Philadelphia Gear recognizes a portion of their revenues on the percentage-of-completion method. In 2011, the Company recognized approximately $40 million in net sales under the percentage-of-completion method.
Cash Equivalents: The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts, which represents an estimate of the losses expected from the accounts receivable portfolio, to reduce accounts receivable to their net realizable value. The allowance was based upon historical trends in collections and write-offs, managements judgment of the probability of collecting accounts and managements evaluation of business risk. The Company extends credit to customers satisfying pre-defined credit criteria. The Company believes it has limited concentration of credit risk due to the diversity of its customer base.
Inventories: Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. The majority of domestic inventories are valued by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method and the balance of the Companys inventories are valued by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.
Investments: Short-term investments are investments with maturities between four months and one year and are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. The Company held short-term investments as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 with a fair value of $32.0 million and $15.0 million, respectively, and a cost basis of $32.0 million and $15.0 million, respectively, which were included in other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, the Companys business in India held investments in mutual funds of $14.6 million and $6.9 million as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These investments were classified as available-for-sale securities and were included in other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Unrealized gains and losses were included in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Realized gains and losses were included in other (expense) income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Property, Plant and Equipment: Property, plant and equipmentnet is valued at cost less accumulated depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. The provision for depreciation is computed principally by the straight-line method based upon the estimated useful lives of the assets. The useful lives are approximately 30 years for buildings, five to seven years for computer software and three to 20 years for machinery and equipment.
The impairment of long-lived assets is evaluated when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset or related group of assets may not be recoverable. If the expected future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized at that time to reduce the asset to the lower of its fair value or its net book value.
48
Note 1 Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets: Intangible assets subject to amortization are amortized on a straight-line method over their legal or estimated useful lives, with useful lives ranging from two years to 20 years. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment at least annually. The Company performs its annual impairment test on the first day of the fourth quarter after the annual forecasting process is completed. Furthermore, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable in accordance with accounting rules related to goodwill and other intangible assets. Effective October 1, 2011, the Company adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-08, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment, which allows companies to assess qualitative factors to determine if goodwill might be impaired and whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test.
Income Taxes: The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) No. 740, Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well as net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The Company recognizes valuation allowances against deferred tax assets by tax jurisdiction when it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. Accruals for uncertain tax positions are provided for in accordance with ASC No. 740-10. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.
Foreign Currency Translation: Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries, other than those located in highly inflationary countries, are translated at the rate of exchange in effect on the balance sheet date; income and expenses are translated at the average rates of exchange prevailing during the year. The related translation adjustments are reflected as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions and the translation of financial statements of subsidiaries in highly inflationary countries are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company realized foreign currency exchange losses of $1.4 million in 2011 and foreign currency gains of $4.3 million and $8.2 million in 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits: The Company recognizes an overfunded status or underfunded status ( i.e ., the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligations) as either an asset or a liability for its defined benefit pension and postretirement benefit plans on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, with a corresponding adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax. The adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive loss represents the current year net unrecognized actuarial gains and losses and unrecognized prior service costs. These amounts will be recognized in future periods as net periodic benefit cost.
Stock-Based Compensation: The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense based on the grant date fair value of the share-based awards over their required vesting period. Stock options are issued with an exercise price equal to the closing market price of Timken common shares on the date of grant. The fair value of stock options is determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model, which incorporates assumptions regarding the expected volatility, the expected option life, the risk-free interest rate, and the expected dividend yield. The fair value of restricted stock is based on the closing market price of Timken common stock on the grant date.
Earnings Per Share: Unvested restricted shares of common stock provide for the payment of nonforfeitable dividends. The Company considers these awards as participating securities. Earnings per share are computed using the two class method. Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income less undistributed earnings allocated to unvested restricted stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income less undistributed earnings allocated to unvested restricted stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for the dilutive impact of outstanding share-based awards.
Derivative Instruments: The Company recognizes all derivatives on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. Derivatives that are not designated as hedges must be adjusted to fair value through earnings. If the derivative is designated and qualifies as a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivatives are either offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive loss until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The Companys holdings of forward foreign currency exchange contracts qualify as derivatives pursuant to the criteria established in derivative accounting guidance, and the Company has designated certain of those derivatives as hedges.

Note 1 Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements:
In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU No. 2011-08, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment, which includes new accounting guidance for the periodic testing of goodwill for impairment. This guidance allows companies to assess qualitative factors to determine if goodwill might be impaired and whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test required under current accounting standards. This new guidance is effective for the Company beginning after December 31, 2011, with early adoption permitted. Effective October 1, 2011, the Company adopted this accounting guidance. The adoption of the new accounting guidance related to goodwill impairment testing had no impact on the Companys results of operations and financial condition.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which includes new accounting rules related to the presentation of comprehensive income. The new accounting rules require that entities present a statement of other comprehensive income within the consolidated financial statements in one of two manners: a single statement approach or a two-statement approach. The single statement approach consists of a single statement presenting the components of net income and total net income, the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income. The two-statement approach allows for the components of net income and total net income to be presented in a financial statement, immediately followed by another financial statement presenting the components of other comprehensive income and a total for comprehensive income. The new accounting rules are effective, on a retrospective basis, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of the new accounting rules related to the presentation of other comprehensive income is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys results of operations and financial condition, but it will affect how the Company reports other comprehensive income. Management has evaluated the two methods of presentation for comprehensive income and will apply the two-statement approach effective January 1, 2012.
In May 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance updating ASU No. 2011-04 , Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. The new accounting rules do not extend the use of fair value accounting; they only provide additional guidance on the application and disclosure of fair value accounting where its use is currently permitted. The new accounting rules also expand the required disclosures about fair value measurement. The provisions for the new accounting rules are effective, on a prospective basis, for interim and fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of the new accounting rules for fair value measurements is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys results of operations and financial condition.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates and assumptions are reviewed and updated regularly to reflect recent experience.
Reclassifications: Certain amounts reported in the 2010 and 2009 Consolidated Financial Statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2011 presentation. Such amounts include reclassifications of segment earnings and the reclassifications of certain accruals between short-term and long-term liabilities.
Note 2 Acquisitions and Divestitures
Acquisitions
On October 3, 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of Drives LLC (Drives), a leading manufacturer of highly engineered drive-chains, roller-chains and conveyor augers for agricultural and industrial markets, for $93.1 million in cash. Based in Fulton, Illinois and employing approximately 430 people, Drives had trailing 12-month sales of approximately $100 million through September 2011. The results of the operations of Drives were included in the Companys Consolidated Statements of Income for the period subsequent to the effective date of the acquisition and were reported in the Mobile Industries and Process Industries segments.
On July 1, 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all assets of Philadelphia Gear, a leading provider of high-performance gear drives and components with a strong focus on value-added aftermarket capabilities in the industrial and military marine sectors, for $199.0 million in cash. Based in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania and employing approximately 220 people, Philadelphia Gear had trailing 12-month sales through June 2011 of approximately $100 million. The results of the operations of Philadelphia Gear were included in the Companys Consolidated Statements of Income for the period subsequent to the effective date of the acquisition and were reported in the Process Industries segment.
50
Note 2 Acquisitions and Divestitures (continued)
On December 31, 2010, the Company purchased substantially all the assets of City Scrap and Salvage Co. in Akron, Ohio (City Scrap) for $6.5 million in cash. City Scrap, which employs 30 people, had a long-standing relationship with the Company, supplying the Company for more than 15 years as a local source of the ferrous scrap needed for its steelmaking operations. The City Scrap acquisition has streamlined the supply of scrap to Timkens steel operations, improving efficiency and increasing supply chain reliability. City Scrap had revenues of approximately $17 million in 2010. The results of City Scrap were included in the Companys Consolidated Statements of Income effective January 1, 2011 and were reported in the Steel segment.
On September 21, 2010, the Company completed the acquisition of Q.M. Bearings and Power Transmission, Inc. (QM Bearings), based in Ferndale, Washington, for $16.9 million in cash, including cash acquired of $0.8 million. QM Bearings also has manufacturing facilities in Prince George, British Columbia, Canada and Wuxi, China. QM Bearings manufactures spherical roller-bearing steel-housed units and elastomeric and steel couplings used in demanding processes such as sawmill, logging and cement operations. QM Bearings had sales of approximately $14 million in the twelve months prior to the acquisition. QM Bearings has approximately 100 employees in the United States, Canada and China. The results of the operations of QM Bearings were included in the Companys Consolidated Statements of Income for the periods subsequent to the effective date of the acquisition and were reported in the Process Industries segment.
Pro forma results of these operations have not been presented because the effects of the acquisitions were not significant to the Companys income from continuing operations or total assets in 2011, 2010 or 2009. The initial purchase price allocations, net of cash acquired, and any subsequent purchase price adjustments for acquisitions in 2011, 2010 and 2009 are presented below:

Divestiture
On December 31, 2009, the Company completed the sale of substantially all the assets of its Needle Roller Bearings (NRB) operations to JTEKT Corporation (JTEKT). The Company received approximately $304 million in cash proceeds for these operations and retained certain receivables of approximately $26 million. The NRB operations primarily served the automotive original-equipment market sector and manufactured highly-engineered needle roller bearings, including an extensive range of radial and thrust needle roller bearings as well as bearing assemblies and loose needles for automotive and industrial applications. The NRB operations included facilities in the United States, Canada, Europe and China. The NRB operations had 2009 sales of approximately $407 million which were previously included in the Companys Mobile Industries, Process Industries and Aerospace and Defense reportable segments. The Mobile Industries segment accounted for approximately 80% of the 2009 sales of the NRB operations. The results of operations were reclassified as discontinued operations during the third quarter of 2009, as the NRB operations met all the criteria for discontinued operations, including assets held for sale. Results for 2009 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation under discontinued operations.
During the third quarter of 2009, the net assets associated with the then pending sale of the NRB operations were reclassified to assets held for sale and adjusted for impairment and written-down to their fair value of $301 million. The Company based its fair value on the expected proceeds from the sale to JTEKT. At September 30, 2009, the carrying value of the net assets of the NRB operations exceeded the expected proceeds to be realized upon completion of the sale by $33.7 million. The Company subsequently recognized an after-tax loss of $12.7 million on the sale of the NRB operations during the fourth quarter of 2009. The after-tax loss on the sale exceeded the initial estimate primarily due to revisions to estimated working capital adjustments. In 2010, the Company recognized an after-tax gain of $7.4 million primarily due to final working capital adjustments.

Note 5 Inventories
Inventories valued on the LIFO cost method were 55% and the remaining 45% were valued by the FIFO method. If all inventories had been valued at FIFO, inventories would have been $287.7 million and $264.6 million greater at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The components of inventories at December 31, 2011 and 2010 were as follows:

Note 6 Property, Plant and Equipment (continued)
In November 2010, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the real estate related to its former manufacturing facility in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The carrying value of the real estate was $4.0 million at December 31, 2011. The transfer of the property is expected to be completed in 2012 after the Company has completed soil remediation of the site and the groundwater remediation plan has been approved by the Brazil environmental authorities. Based on the terms of the agreement, the Company expects to receive approximately $33.7 million, including interest, over an 18-month period, once title transfers, subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
Note 7 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
The Company tests goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually. The Company performs its annual impairment test on the first day of the fourth quarter after the annual forecasting process is completed. Furthermore, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Each interim period, management of the Company assesses whether or not an indicator of impairment is present that would necessitate that a goodwill impairment analysis be performed in an interim period other than during the fourth quarter.
The Company reviews goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level. The Companys reporting units are the same as its reportable segments: Mobile Industries, Process Industries, Aerospace and Defense and Steel. The Company prepares its goodwill impairment analysis by comparing the estimated fair value of each reporting unit, using an income approach (a discounted cash flow model), as well as a market approach, with its carrying value.
During 2011, the Company adopted the provisions of ASU No. 2011-8, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment, which allows companies to assess qualitative factors to determine if goodwill might be impaired and whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. Based on a review of various qualitative factors, management concluded that the goodwill for the Process Industries and Steel segments was not impaired and that two-step approach was not required to be performed for these reporting units. Based on a review of various qualitative factors, management concluded that the goodwill for the Aerospace and Defense segment would be tested under the two-step approach.
In 2011, 2010 and 2009, no goodwill impairment loss was recorded.
Changes in the carrying value of goodwill were as follows:

Note 8 Financing Arrangements
Short-term debt for the years ended December 31 was as follows:
2011 | 2010 | |||||||
Variable-rate lines of credit for certain of the Companys foreign subsidiaries with various banks with interest rates ranging from 2.24% to 11.0% and 2.4% to 5.10% at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively |
$ | 22.0 | $ | 22.4 | ||||
Short-term debt |
$ | 22.0 | $ | 22.4 |
The lines of credit for certain of the Companys foreign subsidiaries provide for borrowings up to $242.4 million. Most of these lines of credit are uncommitted. At December 31, 2011, the Companys foreign subsidiaries had borrowings outstanding of $22.0 million and guarantees of $8.3 million, which reduced the availability under these facilities to $212.1 million.
The weighted average interest rate on short-term debt during the year was 4.1% in 2011, 4.3% in 2010 and 3.7% in 2009. The weighted average interest rate on short-term debt outstanding at December 31, 2011 and 2010 was 3.6% and 3.6%, respectively.
The Company has a $150 million Accounts Receivable Securitization Financing Agreement (Asset Securitization Agreement), which matures November 10, 2012. Under the terms of the Asset Securitization Agreement, the Company sells, on an ongoing basis, certain domestic trade receivables to Timken Receivables Corporation, a wholly-owned consolidated subsidiary that in turn uses the trade receivables to secure borrowings which are funded through a vehicle that issues commercial paper in the short-term market. Borrowings under the agreement are limited to certain borrowing base calculations. Any amounts outstanding under this Asset Securitization Agreement would be reported in the short-term debt on the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Asset Securitization Agreement. The cost of this facility, which is the commercial paper rate plus program fees, is considered a financing cost and is included in interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The yield rate was 1.25%, 1.34% and 1.53%, at December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Note 8 Financing Arrangements (continued)
On May 11, 2011, the Company entered into a $500 million Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (Senior Credit Facility). This Senior Credit Facility amended and restated the former senior credit facility, which was due to expire on July 10, 2012. The Senior Credit Facility now matures on May 11, 2016. At December 31, 2011, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility but had letters of credit outstanding totaling $17.2 million, which reduced the availability under the Senior Credit Facility to $482.8 million. Under the Senior Credit Facility, the Company has two financial covenants: a consolidated leverage ratio and a consolidated interest coverage ratio. At December 31, 2011, the Company was in full compliance with the covenants under the Senior Credit Facility.
In 2011, the Company was notified that its variable-rate State of Ohio Pollution Control Revenue Refunding Bonds, maturing on June 1, 2033, had lost their tax-exempt status and would now be taxable to its bondholders. As part of the negotiation with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the Company will redeem half of the $17 million balance during the first quarter of 2012. The remaining balance matures on June 1, 2033.
AGC is a joint venture of the Company. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had restricted cash of $3.6 million in a collateral account to secure up to $3.6 million of the indebtedness between AGC and US Bank in the event AGC defaults on its credit facility with US Bank. The $3.6 million collateral account is classified as restricted cash on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2011.
Certain of the Companys foreign subsidiaries have facilities that also provide for long-term borrowings up to $23.8 million. At December 31, 2011, the Company had borrowings outstanding of $23.8 million, leaving no availability under these long-term facilities.
The maturities of long-term debt for the five years subsequent to December 31, 2011 are as follows: 2012 $14.3 million; 2013 $0.9 million; 2014 $272.7 million; 2015 zero; and 2016 $15.0.
Interest paid was approximately $35 million in 2011, $36 million in 2010 and $39 million in 2009. This differs from interest expense due to the timing of payments and interest capitalized of approximately $1.2 million in 2011, $0.7 million in 2010 and $1.8 million in 2009.
The Company and its subsidiaries lease a variety of real property and equipment. Rent expense under operating leases amounted to $44.5 million, $38.1 million and $43.5 million in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. At December 31, 2011, future minimum lease payments for noncancelable operating leases totaled $147.7 million and are payable as follows: 2012$37.8 million; 2013$31.7 million; 2014$25.5 million; 2015$21.0 million; 2016-$14.0 million and $17.7 million thereafter.

Note 9 Contingencies
The Company and certain of its subsidiaries have been designated as potentially responsible parties by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for site investigation and remediation under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (Superfund) with respect to certain sites. The claims for remediation have been asserted against numerous other entities, which are believed to be financially solvent and are expected to fulfill their proportionate share of the obligation. The Company had an accrual of $16.3 million and $14.2 million for environmental matters that are probable and reasonably estimable, as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. This accrual is recorded based upon the best estimate of costs to be incurred in light of the progress made in determining the magnitude of remediation costs, the timing and extent of remedial actions required by governmental authorities and the amount of the Companys liability in proportion to other responsible parties. Approximately $14.8 million of the 2011 accrual is included in the rollforward of the restructuring accrual as of December 31, 2011 discussed in Note 10 Impairment and Restructuring Charges.
In addition, the Company is subject to various lawsuits, claims and proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of its business. The Company accrues costs associated with legal and non-income tax matters when they become probable and reasonably estimable. Accruals are established based on the estimated undiscounted cash flows to settle the obligations and are not reduced by any potential recoveries from insurance or other indemnification claims. Management believes that any ultimate liability with respect to these actions, in excess of amounts provided, will not materially affect the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements.
Product Warranties
The Company provides limited warranties on certain of its products. The Company accrues liabilities for warranty policies based upon specific claims and a review of historical warranty claim experience in accordance with accounting rules relating to contingent liabilities. The Company records and accounts for its warranty reserve based on specific claim incidents. Should the Company become aware of a specific potential warranty claim for which liability is probable and reasonably estimable, a specific charge is recorded and accounted for accordingly. Adjustments are made quarterly to the accruals as claim data and historical experience change.
The following is a rollforward of the warranty reserves for 2011 and 2010:

The following discussion explains the major impairment and restructuring charges recorded for the periods presented; however, it is not intended to reflect a comprehensive discussion of all amounts in the tables above.
Workforce Reductions
In 2009, the Company began the realignment of its organization to improve efficiency and reduce costs as a result of the economic downturn that began during the latter part of 2008. The initiative was completed in 2010 and included both selling and administrative cost reductions, as well as manufacturing workforce reductions. During 2010, the Company recognized $5.6 million of severance and related benefit costs to eliminate approximately 200 employees. Of the $5.6 million charge for 2010, $2.0 million related to the Aerospace and Defense segment, $1.6 million related to the Process Industries segment, $1.4 million related to the Mobile Industries segment and $0.6 million related to Corporate positions. During 2009, the Company recognized $42.9 million of severance and related benefit costs, to eliminate approximately 3,280 manufacturing employees. Of the $42.9 million charge, $26.0 million related to the Mobile Industries segment, $8.5 million related to the Process Industries segment, $3.3 million related to the Steel segment, $3.1 million related to the Aerospace and Defense segment and $2.0 million related to Corporate positions.
Torrington Campus
On July 20, 2009, the Company completed the sale of the remaining portion of its Torrington, Connecticut office complex. In anticipation of recording a loss upon completion of the sale of the office complex, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $6.4 million during the second quarter of 2009.

Note 10 Impairment and Restructuring Charges (continued)
Mobile Industries
In March 2007, the Company announced the closure of its manufacturing facility in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The Company completed the closure of this manufacturing facility on March 31, 2010. Pretax costs associated with the closure could be as high as approximately $60 million, which includes restructuring costs and rationalization costs recorded in cost of products sold and selling, general and administrative expenses. Mobile Industries has incurred cumulative pretax expenses of approximately $47.7 million as of December 31, 2011 related to this closure. In 2011, 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded $12.5 million, $4.4 million and $1.7 million, respectively, of exit costs associated with the closure of this facility. The exit costs for 2011 and 2010 primarily related to environmental remediation costs, as well as workers compensation claims for former employees in 2011. The Company accrues environmental remediation costs and workers compensation claims when they are probable and estimable. In 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded $1.3 million and $5.2 million, respectively, of severance and related benefit costs. The Company also recorded impairment charges of $1.1 million associated with this closure in 2010. The impairment charges were recorded as a result of the carrying value of certain machinery and equipment exceeding their fair value.
In 2009, the Company recorded impairment charges of $71.7 million for certain fixed assets in the United States, Canada, France and China related to several automotive product lines. The Company reviewed these assets for impairment during the fourth quarter due to declining sales at that time and as a result of the Companys initiative to exit programs where adequate returns could not be obtained through pricing initiatives. Circumstances related to future revenue streams for customers coming out of bankruptcy and the results of its pricing initiatives did not become fully evident until the fourth quarter of 2009. Incorporating this information into its annual long-term forecasting process, the Company determined the undiscounted projected future cash flows for these product lines could not support the carrying value of these asset groups. The Company then arrived at fair value by either valuing the assets in use where the assets were still producing product or in exchange where the assets had been idled.
In addition to the above charges, the Company recorded $3.1 million of environmental exit costs in 2010 at the site of its former plant in Columbus, Ohio.
Process Industries
In 2009, the Company recorded impairment charges of $27.7 million, exit costs of $1.6 million and severance and related benefits of $0.6 million related to the rationalization of its three bearing plants in Canton, Ohio. In 2009, the Company closed two of the three bearing plants. The significant impairment charge was recorded during the second quarter of 2009 as a result of the rapid deterioration of the market sectors served by one of the rationalized plants resulting in the carrying value of the fixed assets for this plant exceeding their projected undiscounted future cash flows. The fair value was determined based on market comparisons to similar assets. In 2010, the Company recorded $1.0 million of exit costs primarily due to demolition costs.
In October 2009, the Company announced the consolidation of its distribution centers in Bucyrus, Ohio and Spartanburg, South Carolina into a leased facility near the existing Spartanburg location. The closure was completed in June 2011. During 2009, the Company recorded $4.5 million of severance and related benefit costs related to this closure.
Aerospace and Defense
In 2010, the Company recorded fixed asset impairment charges of $2.0 million at its location in Mesa, Arizona. The impairment charges were recorded as a result of the carrying value of certain machinery and equipment exceeding their expected future cash flows.

The restructuring accrual at December 31, 2011 and 2010 was included in other current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The accrual at December 31, 2011 included $2.8 million of severance and related benefits, which are expected to be paid by June 2012. The remainder of the restructuring accrual at December 31, 2011 primarily represented environmental exit costs, which are principally related to Sao Paulo, Brazil. As of December 31, 2011, the Company has $14.8 million reserved for environmental matters, of which $10.5 million relates to Sao Paulo, Brazil. The Company adjusts environmental remediation accruals based on the best available estimate of costs to be incurred, the timing and extent of remedial actions required by governmental authorities and the amount of the Companys liability in proportion to other responsible parties. The Companys estimated total liability for this site ranges from a minimum of $10.5 million to a maximum of $16.1 million. It is possible that the estimate may change in the near term.
Note 11 Stock Compensation Plans
Under the Companys long-term incentive plan, shares of the Companys common stock have been made available to grant, at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, to officers and key employees in the form of stock option awards. Stock option awards typically have a ten-year term and generally vest in 25% increments annually beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant. In addition to stock option awards, the Company has granted restricted shares under the long-term incentive plan. Restricted shares typically vest in 25% increments annually beginning on the first year anniversary of the date of grant and are expensed over the vesting period.
During 2011, 2010 and 2009, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $9.4 million ($5.9 million after tax or $0.06 per diluted share), $8.8 million ($5.6 million after tax or $0.06 per diluted share) and $7.0 million ($4.5 million after tax or $0.05 per diluted share), respectively, for stock option awards.
The fair value of stock option awards granted during 2011, 2010 and 2009 was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing method with the following assumptions:
2011 | 2010 | 2009 | ||||||||||
Weighted average fair value per option |
$ | 19.93 | $ | 9.04 | $ | 4.44 | ||||||

Expected stock volatility |
0.481 | 0.470 | 0.430 | |||||||||
Expected life - years |
6 | 6 | 6 |
Historical information was the primary basis for the selection of the expected dividend yield, expected volatility and the expected lives of the options. The dividend yield was calculated based upon the last dividend prior to the grant compared to the trailing 12 months daily stock prices. The risk-free interest rate was based upon yields of U.S. zero coupon issues with a term equal to the expected life of the option being valued. Forfeitures were estimated at 4%.

The unrecognized compensation expense is expected to be recognized over a total weighted average period of two years. The number of shares available for future grants for all plans at December 31, 2011 was 8,883,773.
The Company offers to certain employees a performance unit component under its long-term incentive plan in which awards are earned based on Company performance measured by two metrics over a three-year performance period. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors can elect to make payments that become due in the form of cash or the Companys common stock. A total of 34,756, 69,440 and 47,083 performance units were granted in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Note 12 Retirement Benefit Plans
The Company and its subsidiaries sponsor a number of defined benefit pension plans, which cover eligible employees, including certain employees in foreign countries. These plans are generally noncontributory. Pension benefits earned are generally based on years of service and compensation during active employment. The cash contributions for the Companys defined benefit pension plans were $291.1 million and $230.0 million in 2011 and 2010, respectively.
The following tables summarize the net periodic benefit cost information and the related assumptions used to measure the net period benefit cost for the years ended December 31:

The discount rate assumption is based on current rates of high-quality long-term corporate bonds over the same period that benefit payments will be required to be made. The expected rate of return on plan assets assumption is based on the weighted-average expected return on the various asset classes in the plans portfolio. The asset class return is developed using historical asset return performance as well as current market conditions such as inflation, interest rates and equity market performance.
Effective December 31, 2009, the Company sold its NRB operations. As part of the sale, JTEKT assumed responsibility for the pension obligations with respect to current employees, as well as certain retired employees of the NRB operations. The net periodic benefit cost related to these obligations included $2.6 million in 2009 related to the NRB operations and has been classified as discontinued operations. In addition, the Company recognized a total settlement of $17.6 million in 2009 as a result of JTEKT assuming responsibility for certain pension obligations.
For expense purposes in 2011, the Company applied a discount rate of 5.75% to its U.S. defined benefit pension plans. For expense purposes in 2012, the Company will apply a discount rate of 5.00% to its U.S. defined benefit pension plans. A 0.25 percentage point reduction in the discount rate would increase pension expense by approximately $5.0 million for 2012.
For expense purposes in 2011, the Company applied an expected rate of return of 8.50% for the Companys U.S. pension plan assets. For expense purposes in 2012, the Company will apply an expected rate of return on plan assets of 8.25%. A 0.25 percentage point reduction in the expected rate of return would increase pension expense by approximately $6.0 million for 2012.

Defined benefit pension plans in the United States represent 87% of the benefit obligation and 88% of the fair value of plan assets as of December 31, 2011.
Certain of the Companys defined benefit pension plans were overfunded as of December 31, 2011. As a result, $4.4 million and $6.9 million at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, are included in other non-current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The current portion of accrued pension cost, which is included in salaries, wages and benefits on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, was $6.1 million and $5.7 million at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In 2011, the current portion of accrued pension cost relates to unfunded plans and represents the actuarial present value of expected payments related to the plans to be made over the next 12 months.
66
Note 12 Retirement Benefit Plans (continued)
The accumulated benefit obligations at December 31, 2011 exceeded the market value of plan assets for the majority of the Companys pension plans. For these plans, the projected benefit obligation was $3.1 billion, the accumulated benefit obligation was $3.0 billion and the fair value of plan assets was $2.6 billion at December 31, 2011.
The pension accumulated benefit obligation was $3.0 billion and $2.8 billion at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
In an environment of economic concerns and volatility in the global capital markets in 2011, investment performance increased the value of the Companys pension assets by 4.8%.
As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Companys defined benefit pension plans did not directly hold any shares of the Companys common stock.
The estimated net actuarial loss and prior service cost for the defined benefit pension plans that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income into net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal year are $82.8 million and $9.4 million, respectively.
PLAN ASSETS:
The Companys target allocation for pension plan assets, as well as the actual pension plan asset allocations as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, was as follows:
Current
Target Allocation |

The Company recognizes its overall responsibility to ensure that the assets of its various defined benefit pension plans are managed effectively and prudently and in compliance with its policy guidelines and all applicable laws. Preservation of capital is important; however, the Company also recognizes that appropriate levels of risk are necessary to allow its investment managers to achieve satisfactory long-term results consistent with the objectives and the fiduciary character of the pension funds. Asset allocations are established in a manner consistent with projected plan liabilities, benefit payments and expected rates of return for various asset classes. The expected rate of return for the investment portfolio is based on expected rates of return for various asset classes, as well as historical asset class and fund performance.

Note 12 Retirement Benefit Plans (continued)
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The FASB provides accounting rules that classify the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:
Level 1 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | |||
Level 2 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. | |||
Level 3 | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. |

Cash and cash equivalents are valued at redemption value. Government and agency securities are valued at the closing price reported in the active market on which the individual securities are traded. Certain corporate bonds are valued at the closing price reported in the active market in which the bond is traded. Equity securities (both common and preferred stock) are valued at the closing price reported in the active market in which the individual security is traded. Common collective funds and asset-backed securities are valued based on quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. When such prices are unavailable, the Trustee determines a valuation from the market maker dealing in the particular security. The value of limited partnerships is based upon the general partners own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the assets and liabilities of the partnership.
On February 12, 2009, the Company was informed of alleged irregularities in the operation of one of its equity-related investments in its defined benefit pension plans. A court appointed a Receiver to take control of the investment firm and investigate this matter. In December 2009, the Company reduced the value of this investment to its expected net realizable value of approximately $19 million (the original investment was $50 million), reflecting the Receivers preliminary findings. The Company included this investment in Level 3 at December 31, 2010 and 2009 since the fair value was an estimate of what the Company expected to receive from the Receiver and not reflective of observable market prices. On July 26, 2010, the Company received a payment of $20 million from one of its insurance carriers and the funds were transferred to its defined benefit pension plans. On December 21, 2010 and April 21, 2011 the Companys defined benefit pension plans received two payments from the Receiver totaling $25.8 million.

Employee Savings Plans
The Company sponsors defined contribution retirement and savings plans covering substantially all employees in the United States and employees at certain non-U.S. locations. The Company has contributed Timken common stock to certain of these plans based on formulas established in the respective plan agreements. At December 31, 2011, the plans held 7,739,671 shares of the Companys common stock with a fair value of $299.6 million. Company contributions to the plans, including performance sharing, were $26.4 million in 2011, $21.1 million in 2010 and $19.3 million in 2009. The Company paid dividends totaling $5.7 million in 2011, $4.6 million in 2010 and $5.1 million in 2009 to plans holding shares of the Companys common stock.
Note 13 Postretirement Benefit Plans
The Company and its subsidiaries sponsor several funded and unfunded postretirement plans that provide health care and life insurance benefits for eligible retirees and dependents. Depending on retirement date and employee classification, certain health care plans contain contribution and cost-sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance. The remaining health care and life insurance plans are noncontributory.

The discount rate assumption is based on current rates of high-quality long-term corporate bonds over the same period that benefit payments will be required to be made. The expected rate of return on plan assets assumption is based on the weighted-average expected return on the various asset classes in the plans portfolio. The asset class return is developed using historical asset return performance as well as current market conditions such as inflation, interest rates and equity market performance.
For expense purposes in 2011, the Company applied a discount rate of 5.50% to its postretirement benefit plans. For expense purposes in 2012, the Company will apply a discount rate of 4.85% to its postretirement benefit plans. A 0.25 percentage point reduction in the discount rate would increase postretirement benefit expense by approximately $0.5 million for 2012.
In December 2010, the Company established a Voluntary Employee Benefit Association (VEBA) trust for The Timken Company Bargaining Unit Welfare Benefit Plan. For expense purposes in 2011, the Company applied an expected rate of return of 5.00% to the VEBA trust assets. For expense purposes in 2012, the Company will apply an expected rate of return on plan assets of 5.00%. A 0.25 percentage point reduction in the expected rate of return would increase postretirement benefit expense by approximately $0.5 million for 2012.

The current portion of accrued postretirement benefit cost, which is included in salaries, wages and benefits on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, was $61.8 million and $58.8 million at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In 2011, the current portion of accrued postretirement benefit cost relates to unfunded plans and represents the actuarial present value of expected payments related to the plans to be made over the next 12 months.
The estimated net loss and prior service credit for the postretirement plans that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income into net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal year are $4.6 million and $ (0.3) million, respectively.
For measurement purposes, the Company assumed a weighted average annual rate of increase in the per capita cost (health care cost trend rate) for medical benefits of 7.9% for 2012, declining gradually to 5.0% in 2078 and thereafter; and 9.0% for 2012, declining gradually to 5.0% in 2078 and thereafter for prescription drug benefits; and 10.0% for 2012, declining gradually to 5.0% in 2078 and thereafter for HMO benefits.
The assumed health care cost trend rate may have a significant effect on the amounts reported. A one percentage point increase in the assumed health care cost trend rate would have increased the 2011 total service and interest cost components by $0.8 million and would have increased the postretirement benefit obligation by $15.3 million. A one percentage point decrease would provide corresponding reductions of $0.8 million and $14.2 million, respectively.
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (as amended) (PPACA) was enacted on March 23, 2010. PPACA consists of a broad range of provisions that may impact future plan design and administrative cost. The Companys actuary determined the impact PPACA has on the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation, to the extent measurable. The effect of PPACA was an increase in the reported postretirement benefit obligation of approximately $3.5 million. The 2011 net periodic postretirement benefit cost increased by approximately $0.6 million to reflect the impact of PPACA.

Note 13 Postretirement Benefit Plans (continued)
The Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the Medicare Act) was signed into law on December 8, 2003. The Medicare Act provides for prescription drug benefits under Medicare Part D and contains a subsidy to plan sponsors who provide actuarially equivalent prescription plans. The Companys actuary determined that the prescription drug benefit provided by the Companys postretirement plan is considered to be actuarially equivalent to the benefit provided under the Medicare Act. In accordance with ASC 715, Compensation Retirement Benefits, all measures of the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation or net periodic postretirement benefit cost in the financial statements or accompanying notes reflect the effects of the Medicare Act on the plan for the entire fiscal year. The 2011 expected subsidy was $3.2 million, of which $0.9 million was received prior to December 31, 2011.
PLAN ASSETS:
The Companys target allocation for the VEBA trust assets, as well as the actual VEBA trust asset allocation as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, was as follows:

The Company recognizes its overall responsibility to ensure that the assets of its defined postretirement benefit plan are managed effectively and prudently and in compliance with its policy guidelines and all applicable laws. Preservation of capital is important; however, the Company also recognizes that appropriate levels of risk are necessary to allow its investment managers to achieve satisfactory long-term results consistent with the objectives and the fiduciary character of the postretirement funds. Asset allocations are established in a manner consistent with projected plan liabilities, benefit payments and expected rates of return for various asset classes. The expected rate of return for the investment portfolio is based on expected rates of return for various asset classes, as well as historical asset class and fund performance.
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The FASB provides accounting rules that classify the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:
Level 1 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | |||
Level 2 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. | |||
Level 3 | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. |

Note 14 Segment Information
The Company operates under four reporting segments: (1) Mobile Industries; (2) Process Industries; (3) Aerospace and Defense; and (4) Steel.
Description of types of products and services from which each reportable segment derives its revenues
The Companys reportable segments are business units that target different industry sectors. Each reportable segment is managed separately because of the need to specifically address customer needs in these different industries.
The Mobile Industries segment includes global sales of bearings, mechanical power transmission components, drive-chains, roller-chains, augers and related products and services (other than steel) to a diverse customer base, including original equipment manufacturers and their suppliers of passenger cars, light trucks, medium to heavy-duty trucks, rail cars, locomotives, agricultural, construction and mining equipment. The Mobile Industries segment also includes aftermarket distribution operations for automotive and heavy truck applications.
The Process Industries segment includes global sales of bearings, mechanical power transmission components, industrial chains, augers and related products and services (other than steel) to a diverse customer base including original equipment manufacturers in the power transmission, energy and heavy industry market sectors. The Process Industries segment also includes aftermarket distribution operations for products other than steel and automotive applications.
The Aerospace and Defense segment includes sales of bearings, helicopter transmission systems, rotor head assemblies, turbine engine components, gears and other precision flight-critical components for commercial and military aviation applications. The Aerospace and Defense segment also provides aftermarket services, including repair and overhaul of engines, transmissions and fuel controls as well as aerospace bearing repair and component reconditioning. The Aerospace and Defense segment also includes sales of precision bearings and related products for health and positioning control applications.
The Steel segment includes sales of low and intermediate alloy and carbon grade steel in a wide range of solid and tubular sections with a variety of finishes. The Company also manufactures custom-made steel products including precision steel components. Less than 10% of the Companys steel is consumed in its bearing operations. In addition, sales are made to other anti-friction bearing companies and to aircraft, automotive, forging, tooling, oil and gas drilling industries and steel service centers.
Measurement of segment profit or loss and segment assets
The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on return on capital and profitable growth. Effective January 1, 2011, the primary measurement used by management to measure the financial performance of each segment is EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes). Prior to January 1, 2011, the primary measurement used by management to measure the financial performance of each segment was adjusted EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes, excluding the effects of amounts related to certain items that management considered not representative of ongoing operations such as impairment and restructuring charges, manufacturing rationalization and integration costs, one-time gains and losses on disposal of non-strategic assets, allocated receipts or payments made under the U.S. Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act (CDSOA), gains and losses on the dissolution of a subsidiary, acquisition-related currency exchange gains, and other items similar in nature). The change in 2011 was primarily due to the completion of most of the Companys previously-announced restructuring initiatives. Segment results for 2010 and 2009 have been reclassified to conform to the 2011 presentation of segments. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Intersegment sales and transfers are recorded at values based on market prices, which creates intercompany profit on intersegment sales or transfers that is eliminated in consolidation.
75
Note 14 Segment Information (continued)
Factors used by management to identify the enterprises reportable segments
Net sales by geographic area are reported by the destination of net sales, which is reflective of how the Company operates its segments. Long-lived assets by geographic area are reported by the location of the subsidiary.
Export sales from the United States and Canada are less than 10% of revenue. The Companys Mobile Industries, Process Industries and Aerospace and Defense segments have historically participated in the global bearing industry while the Steel segment has concentrated primarily on U.S. customers.
Timkens non-U.S. operations are subject to normal international business risks not generally applicable to domestic business. These risks include currency fluctuation, changes in tariff restrictions, difficulties in establishing and maintaining relationships with local distributors and dealers, import and export licensing requirements, difficulties in staffing and managing geographically diverse operations and restrictive regulations by foreign governments, including price and exchange controls.

In connection with various investment arrangements, the Company has been granted a holiday from income taxes at one affiliate in Asia for 2011 and two Asian affiliates in 2010 and 2009. These agreements began to expire at the end of 2010, with full expiration in 2018. In total, the agreements reduced income tax expense by $1.0 million in 2011, $1.1 million in 2010 and had no effect on the 2009 income tax expense. These savings resulted in an increase to earnings per diluted share of $0.01 in 2011 and $0.01 in 2010.
Income tax expense includes U.S. and international income taxes. Except as required under U.S. tax law, management does not provide U.S. taxes on our undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries that have not been previously taxed since management intends to invest such undistributed earnings indefinitely outside the United States. Undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries that are indefinitely outside of the U.S. were $559.0 million and $484.0 million at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Determination of the unrecognized deferred tax liability that would be incurred if such amounts were repatriated is not practicable.

Note 15 Income Taxes (continued)
The Company has U.S. state and local loss credit carryforwards with tax benefits totaling $1.7 million and $3.3 million, respectively, portions of which will expire at the end of 2012. In addition, the Company has loss carryforwards in various non-U.S. jurisdictions with tax benefits totaling $136.2 million having various expiration dates, as well as tax credit carryforwards of $0.5 million. The Company has provided valuation allowances of $139.7 million against certain of these carryforwards. The majority of the non-U.S. loss carryforwards represent local country net operating losses for branches of the Company or entities treated as branches of the Company under U.S. tax law. Tax benefits have been recorded for these losses in the United States. The related local country net operating loss carryforwards are offset fully by valuation allowances. In addition to loss and credit carryforwards, the Company has provided valuation allowances of $40.0 million against other deferred tax assets.
As of December 31, 2011, the Company had approximately $87.2 million of total gross unrecognized tax benefits. Included in this amount was approximately $45.3 million, which represented the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that would favorably impact the Companys effective income tax rate in any future periods if such benefits were recognized. As of December 31, 2011, the Company anticipates a decrease in its unrecognized tax positions of approximately $42.0 million to $43.0 million during the next 12 months. The anticipated decrease is primarily due to settlements with tax authorities. As of December 31, 2011, the Company has accrued approximately $9.0 million of interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions. The Company records interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.
As of December 31, 2010, the Company had approximately $77.8 million of total gross unrecognized tax benefits. Included in this amount was approximately $46.1 million, which represents the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that would favorably impact the Companys effective income tax rate in any future periods if such benefits were recognized. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had accrued approximately $6.8 million of interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions. The Company records interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.
The following table reconciles the Companys total gross unrecognized tax benefits for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010:

During 2011, gross unrecognized tax benefits increased primarily due to net additions related to various prior year and current year tax matters, including U.S. state and local taxes, and taxes related to the Companys international operations. These increases were partially offset by reductions related to prior year and current year tax matters, including U.S. state and local taxes and taxes related to the Companys international operations, and lapses in statutes of limitation on various tax matters.
The increase in gross unrecognized tax benefits of $5.3 million during 2010 was primarily due to net additions related to various prior year and current year tax matters, including U.S. state and local taxes, tax credits and taxes related to the Companys international operations.
As of December 31, 2011, the Company is subject to examination by the IRS for tax years 2006 to the present. The Company is also subject to tax examination in various U.S. state and local tax jurisdictions for tax years 2007 to the present, as well as various foreign tax jurisdictions, including Brazil, Germany, India and Canada for tax years 2004 to the present. The current portion of the Companys unrecognized tax benefits is presented on the Consolidated Balance Sheet within income taxes payable, and the non-current portion is presented as a component of other non-current liabilities.

Note 16 Fair Value
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The FASB provides accounting rules that classify the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:

Cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with maturities of three month or less when purchased and are valued at redemption value. Short-term investments are investments with maturities between four months and one year and are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. The Company uses publicly available foreign currency forward and spot rates to measure the fair value of its foreign currency forward contracts.
The Company does not believe it has significant concentrations of risk associated with the counterparts to its financial instruments.

In 2011, the Company made a strategic decision to exit certain non-strategic aerospace aftermarket product lines. The Company plans to exit these product lines within twelve months. The Company wrote-down inventory with a carrying value of $4.7 million to $1.5 million, which reflects managements best estimate of the value it would receive in a sale to a third party given the quantity and timing of the plan to exit these product lines.
Two of the Companys equity investments, International Component Supply Ltda. (ICS) and Endorsia International AB (Endorsia) were reviewed for impairment during the first half of 2011. With a combined value of $6.9 million, these equity investments were written down to their collective fair value of $4.1 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $2.8 million in other (expense) income during the first half of 2011. The fair value of the investment in ICS was based on the estimated sales proceeds to be received from a third party if the Company were to sell its interest in the joint venture. During the second quarter of 2011, the Company sold its investment in ICS for $4.8 million, resulting in a gain of $0.5 million when adjusting for currency. The Companys equity investment in Endorsia was completely written down. The fair value of this investment was based on the estimated proceeds to be received by the parties that own Endorsia from the liquidation of this joint venture.

In 2010, machinery and equipment associated with the manufacturing facility in Sao Paulo, Brazil, with a carrying value of $1.1 million, were written down to their fair value of $0.1 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $1.0 million. Machinery and equipment associated with a manufacturing facility in Mesa, Arizona, with a carrying value of $2.4 million, were written down to their fair value of $0.4 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $2.0 million. Other fixed assets at various locations, with a carrying value of $1.6 million, were written down to their fair value of $0.6 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $1.0 million. The fair value for these assets was based on the price that would be received in a current transaction to sell the assets on a standalone basis, considering the age and physical attributes of the equipment compared to the cost of similar used machinery and equipment, as these assets have been idled. Lastly, indefinite-lived intangible assets, with a carrying value of $0.9 million, were written down to their fair value of $0.2 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $0.7 million. The Company used an income approach (a discounted cash flow model) to arrive at the fair value of these intangible assets.

Note 16 Fair Value (continued)
Financial Instruments
The Companys financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, net, accounts payable, trade, short-term borrowings and long-term debt. Due to their short-term nature, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, net, accounts payable, trade and short-term borrowings are a reasonable estimate of their fair value. The fair value of the Companys long-term fixed-rate debt, based on quoted market prices, was $480.7 million and $468.7 million at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The carrying value of this debt was $428.9 million and $430.4 million at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Note 17 Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed by using derivative instruments are commodity price risk, foreign currency exchange rate risk and interest rate risk. Forward contracts on various commodities are entered into in order to manage the price risk associated with forecasted purchases of natural gas used in the Companys manufacturing process. Forward contracts on various foreign currencies are entered into in order to manage the foreign currency exchange rate risk on forecasted revenue denominated in foreign currencies. Other forward exchange contracts on various foreign currencies are entered into in order to manage the foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with certain of the Companys commitments denominated in foreign currencies. Interest rate swaps are entered into to manage interest rate risk associated with the Companys fixed and floating-rate borrowings.
The Company designates certain foreign currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted revenues and certain interest rate hedges as fair value hedges of fixed-rate borrowings. The majority of the Companys natural gas forward contracts are not subject to any hedge designation as they are considered within the normal purchases exemption.
The Company does not purchase or hold any derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had $145.2 million and $199.6 million, respectively, of outstanding foreign currency forward contracts at notional value. Refer to Note 16 Fair Value for the fair value disclosure of derivative financial instruments,
Cash Flow Hedging Strategy
For certain derivative instruments that are designated as and qualify as cash flow hedges ( i.e ., hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk), the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same line item associated with the forecasted transaction and in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The remaining gain or loss on the derivative instrument in excess of the cumulative change in the present value of future cash flows of the hedged item, if any ( i.e ., the ineffective portion), or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income during the current period.
To protect against a reduction in the value of forecasted foreign currency cash flows resulting from export sales over the next year, the Company has instituted a foreign currency cash flow hedging program. The Company hedges portions of its forecasted intra-group revenue or expense denominated in foreign currencies with forward contracts. When the dollar strengthens significantly against foreign currencies, the decline in the present value of future foreign currency revenue is offset by gains in the fair value of the forward contracts designated as hedges. Conversely, when the dollar weakens, the increase in the present value of future foreign currency cash flows is offset by losses in the fair value of the forward contracts.
Fair Value Hedging Strategy
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges ( i.e ., hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset or a liability or an identified portion thereof that is attributable to a particular risk), the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in the same line item associated with the hedged item ( i.e ., in interest expense when the hedged item is fixed-rate debt).
83
Note 18 Research and Development
The Company performs research and development under Company-funded programs and under contracts with the federal government and others. Expenditures committed to research and development amounted to $49.6 million, $49.9 million and $50.0 million in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Of these amounts, $0.3 million, $1.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively, were funded by others. Expenditures may fluctuate from year-to-year depending on special projects and needs.
Note 19 Prior-Period Adjustments
During the third quarter of 2010, the Company recorded an adjustment related to its 2009 Consolidated Financial Statements. (Loss) income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, decreased $1.3 million (after tax) due to a correction of an error related to a foreign currency translation adjustment for the Companys Canadian operations that were sold as part of the NRB divestiture. The Company realized during the third quarter of 2010 that this adjustment should have been written-off in the fourth quarter of 2009 and recognized as part of the loss on the sale of the NRB operations. Management of the Company concluded the effect of the third quarter adjustment was immaterial to the Companys full-year 2009 and third-quarter 2010 financial statements, as well as to the full-year 2010 financial statements.
During the first quarter of 2010, the Company recorded a $14.1 million adjustment to other comprehensive income for deferred taxes on postretirement prescription drug benefits, specifically the employer subsidy provided by the U.S. government under the Medicare Part D program (the Medicare Subsidy). The Company determined it had provided deferred taxes on postretirement benefit plan accruals recorded through other comprehensive income net of the Medicare Subsidy, rather than on a gross basis. The cumulative impact of this error resulted in a cumulative understatement of deferred tax assets totaling $14.1 million and a corresponding overstatement of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Management concluded the effect of the adjustment was not material to the Companys prior three fiscal years and the first quarter of 2010 financial statements, as well as the estimated full-year 2010 financial statements.
During the first quarter of 2009, the Company recorded two adjustments related to its 2008 Consolidated Financial Statements. Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest increased by $6.1 million (after-tax) due to a correction of an error related to the $18.4 million goodwill impairment loss the Company recorded in the fourth quarter of 2008 for the Mobile Industries segment. In recording this goodwill impairment loss, the Company did not recognize that a portion of the loss related to two separate subsidiaries in India and South Africa of which the Company holds less than 100% ownership. In addition, income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes decreased by $3.4 million, or $0.04 per share, ($2.0 million after-tax or $0.02 per share) due to a correction of an error related to $3.4 million of in-process research and development costs that were recorded in other current assets with the anticipation of being paid for by a third-party. However, the Company subsequently realized that the balance could not be substantiated through a contract with a third party. The net effect of these errors understated 2008 net income attributable to The Timken Company of $267.7 million by $4.1 million. Furthermore, the net effect of these errors overstated the Companys first quarter 2009 net income attributable to The Timken Company of $0.9 million by $4.1 million. Had these adjustments been recorded in the fourth quarter of 2008, rather than the first quarter of 2009, the results for the first quarter of 2009 would have been a net loss attributable to The Timken Company of $3.2 million. Management of the Company concluded the effect of the first quarter adjustments was immaterial to the Companys full-year 2008 and first-quarter 2009 financial statements, as well as to the full-year 2009 financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of The Timken Company
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of The Timken Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of The Timken Company and subsidiaries at December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), The Timken Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 17, 2012 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon .

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
Not applicable.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Companys management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based upon that evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
There have been no changes during the Companys fourth quarter of 2011 in the Companys internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
Report of Management on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The management of The Timken Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Timkens internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Timken management assessed the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this assessment under COSOs Internal Control-Integrated Framework, management believes that, as of December 31, 2011, Timkens internal control over financial reporting is effective.
On July 1, 2011, the Company acquired the assets of Philadelphia Gear, which now the Company operates as Timken Gears and Services. On October 3, 2011, the Company acquired Drives, which now the Company operates as Timken Drives LLC. As permitted by SEC guidance, the scope of Timkens evaluation of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011 did not include the internal control over financial reporting of Timken Gears and Services and Timken Drives LLC. The results of Timken Gears and Services and Timken Drives LLC are included in the Companys consolidated financial statements beginning July 1, 2011 and October 3, 2011, respectively. The total assets of Timken Gears and Services and Timken Drives LLC represented less than six and three percent, respectively, of the Companys total assets at December 31, 2011. Net sales of Timken Gears and Services and Timken Drives LLC represented less than two and one percent, respectively, of the Companys consolidated net sales for the year then ended and less than four and one percent, respectively, of net income for the year then ended. The Company will include Timken Gears and Services and Timken Drives LLC in the Companys internal control over financial reporting assessment as of December 31, 2012.
Ernst & Young LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an audit report on our assessment of Timkens internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, which is presented below.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of The Timken Company
We have audited The Timken Company and subsidiaries internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). The Timken Company and subsidiaries management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Report of Management on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the companys internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
As indicated in the accompanying Report of Management on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, managements assessment of and conclusion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting did not include the internal controls of Timken Gears and Services and Timken Drives LLC, which are included in the 2011 consolidated financial statements of The Timken Company and subsidiaries. The total assets of Timken Gears and Services and Timken Drives LLC represented less than six and three percent, respectively, of the Companys total assets at December 31, 2011. Net Sales of Timken Gears and Services and Timken Drives LLC represented less than two and one percent, respectively, of net sales for the year then ended and less than four and one percent, respectively, of net income for the year then ended. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting of The Timken Company and subsidiaries also did not include an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of Timken Gears and Services or Timken Drives LLC.
In our opinion, The Timken Company and subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on the COSO criteria .
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of The Timken Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011, and our report dated February 17, 2012 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

2. Deferral Elections . All Deferral Elections, once effective, shall be irrevocable, shall be made on an Election Agreement filed with the Director Total Rewards of the Company (or other Company administrative representative as may be designated by the Committee), and shall comply with the following requirements:

2. Participation by Associates of Subsidiaries .

The Account or Accounts of a Participant employed by a Subsidiary shall be paid in accordance with the Plan solely by such Subsidiary to the extent attributable to Base Salary or Incentive Compensation that would have been paid by such Subsidiary in the absence of deferral pursuant to the Plan.
3. Interest of Associate . The obligation of the Company under the Plan to make payment of amounts reflected in an Account merely constitutes the unsecured promise of the Company to make payments from its general assets or in the form of its Common Shares, as the case may be, as provided herein, and no Participant or Beneficiary shall have any interest in, or a lien or prior claim upon, any property of the Company. Further, no Participant or Beneficiary shall have any claim whatsoever against any Subsidiary for amounts reflected in an Account. Nothing in the Plan shall be construed as guaranteeing future employment to Eligible Associates and nothing in the Plan shall be considered in any manner a contract of employment. It is the intention of the Company that the Plan be unfunded for tax purposes of Title I of ERISA. The Company may create a trust to hold funds, Common Shares or other securities to be used in
- 22 -
payment of its obligations under the Plan, and may fund such trust; provided , however , that any funds contained therein shall remain liable for the claims of the Companys general creditors and provided , further , that no amount shall be transferred to trust if, pursuant to Section 409A of the Code, such amount would, for purposes of Section 83 of the Code, be treated as property transferred in connection with the performance of services.
4. Claims of Other Persons . The provisions of the Plan shall in no event be construed as giving any other person, firm or corporation any legal or equitable right as against the Company or any Subsidiary or the officers, employees or directors of the Company or any Subsidiary, except any such rights as are specifically provided for in the Plan or are hereafter created in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Plan.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Common Shares credited to the Account(s) of Participants pursuant to the Plan as Incentive Compensation shall be taken into account for purposes of Section 3 of the Long-Term Incentive Plans (Shares Available Under the Plans) and for purposes of the corresponding provisions of any other such plan.
- 23 -
8. Compliance with Section 409A of the Code .
(i) To the extent applicable, it is intended that the Plan (including all amendments thereto) comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, so that the income inclusion provisions of Section 409A(a)(1) of the Code do not apply to the Participant or a Beneficiary. The Plan shall be administered in a manner consistent with this intent. In furtherance of, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, amounts in the Pre-2005 Subaccounts, which are intended to qualify for grandfathered status pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-6(a), shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and shall be governed by the terms and conditions specified in the Plan as in effect prior to January 1, 2005.
(ii) Neither a Participant nor any of a Participants creditors or beneficiaries shall have the right to subject any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) payable under the Plan to any anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment or garnishment, provided that to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code, payment of part or all of a Participants interest under the Plan may be made to an individual other than the Participant to the extent necessary to fulfill a domestic relations order as defined in Section 414(p)(1)(B) of the Code. Except as permitted under Section 409A of the Code, any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) payable to a Participant or for a Participants benefit under the Plan may not be reduced by, or offset against, any amount owing by a Participant to the Company or any of its affiliates.
- 24 -
(iii) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in light of the uncertainty with respect to the proper application of Section 409A of the Code, the Company reserves the right to make amendments to the Plan as the Company deems necessary or desirable to avoid the imposition of taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code. In any case, a Participant shall be solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on a Participant or for a Participants Account in connection with the Plan (including any taxes and penalties under Section 409A of the Code), and neither the Company nor any of its affiliates shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold a Participant harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties.
9. Headings; Interpretation .
(i) Headings in the Plan are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in the construction of the provisions hereof.
(ii) Any reference in the Plan to Section 409A of the Code will also include any applicable proposed, temporary, or final regulations or any other applicable formal guidance promulgated with respect to such Section 409A of the Code by the U.S. Department of Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service. Further, any specific reference to a Code section or a Treasury Regulation section shall include any successor provision of the Code or the Treasury Regulation, as applicable.

Exhibit 10.2
AMENDED AND RESTATED
SUPPLEMENTAL PENSION PLAN
OF THE TIMKEN COMPANY
(Amended and Restated Effective as of January 1, 2011)
The Timken Company (Timken), 1835 Dueber Avenue, S. W., Canton, Ohio 44706, EIN 34-0577130, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries MPB Corporation, and The Timken Corporation (collectively the Company) hereby amend and restate the Supplemental Pension Plan of The Timken Company (the Supplemental Plan), originally effective May 14, 1979, for the following purpose and in accordance with the provisions as set forth below. Two prior amendments and restatements of the Supplemental Plan were effective as of January 1, 2009. This amendment and restatement of the Supplemental Plan is effective as of January 1, 2011.
1. | Purpose |
The purpose of the Supplemental Plan is to provide for, on or after the effective date hereof, the payment of supplemental retirement benefits:
(a) to those participants of certain qualified defined benefit plans of the Company whose benefits payable under such qualified defined benefit plans of the Company are subject to certain benefit limitations imposed by ERISA and Section 401 and Section 415 of the Code (collectively referred to as Code Limitations); and
(b) to certain employees of the Company who have Employee Excess Benefits Agreements (Excess Agreements) in effect with the Company.
2. | Eligibility |
Each of the following individuals shall be eligible for benefits under the Supplemental Plan and shall be known as a Participant:
(a) Members of or participants in (i) The Timken Company Retirement Plan for Salaried Employees, (ii) prior to January 1, 2012, the 1984 Retirement Plan for Salaried Employees of The Timken Company, and (iii) the TLMT Plan but only to the extent the members or participants are members or participants pursuant to Part Seven, Part Eight, Part Ten (other than Kilian Participants, as defined in Part Ten), and, effective January 1, 2012, Part Fifteen of the TLMT Plan (the plans, or portions of plans, identified in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) being collectively the Qualified Plan), other than participants described in paragraph 2(c), who are eligible for a retirement benefit other than a deferred vested pension and whose retirement benefits under the Qualified Plan are limited pursuant to the Code Limitations;
(b) (i) Former employees of the Company who separated from the service of the Company, and (ii) current employees of the Company who separate from the service of the Company, in each case under circumstances which the Company, in its sole discretion, deems to be for mutually satisfactory reasons and in each case with eligibility for a deferred vested pension and whose retirement benefits under the Qualified Plan are limited by the Code Limitations; and
(c) Employees of the Company who have Excess Agreements currently in effect with the Company.
3. | Incorporation of the Qualified Plan |
The Qualified Plan, with any amendments thereto is hereby incorporated by reference into and shall be a part of the Supplemental Plan as fully as if set forth herein. Any future amendment made to the Qualified Plan shall be also incorporated by reference into and form a part of the Supplemental Plan, effective as of the effective date of such amendment. The Qualified Plan, whenever referred to in the Supplemental Plan, shall mean such Qualified Plan as it exists as of the date any determination is made of benefits payable under the Supplemental Plan. All terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them under the provisions of the
-2-
Qualified Plan unless otherwise qualified by the context of the Supplemental Plan. If there is any conflict between the provisions of the Qualified Plan and the provisions of the Supplemental Plan, the provisions of the Supplemental Plan will govern.
4. | Amount of Benefit |
(a) The benefit payable to a Participant described in paragraphs 2(a) or (b) under the Supplemental Plan shall be equal to the excess, if any, of:
(i) | The benefit which would have been payable to such Participant under the Qualified Plan, if the provisions of the Qualified Plan were administered without regard to the Code Limitations, over |
(ii) |
The benefit which is in fact payable to such Participant under the Qualified Plan. Such benefits payable under the Supplemental Plan to any Participant shall be computed in accordance with the foregoing using the normal form of payment under the Qualified Plan and with the objective that such Participant should receive under the Supplemental Plan and the Qualified Plan the total amount which would otherwise have been payable to that Participant solely under the Qualified Plan had not the Code Limitations been applicable thereto. The Participants benefit under the Supplemental Plan will be paid in the form provided under paragraph 5(a). If any portion of a Participants benefit under the Qualified Plan is not payable at the same time the Participants benefit under the Supplemental Plan is payable, for purposes of this paragraph 4, the corresponding portion of the benefit under the Supplemental Plan shall be determined by calculating that portion of the benefit that would be payable under the Supplemental |
-3-
Plan and Qualified Plan at age 65 and then actuarially reducing such benefit from age 65 to the commencement date provided under the Supplemental Plan in accordance with paragraph 5(b). Any actuarial adjustments under this paragraph 4 shall be based on the Plan Assumptions and, for this purpose, the determinations made under this paragraph 4(a) will be made in the calendar year in which the Participant has a separation from service (as defined in paragraph 5). |
(b) The benefit payable to a Participant described in paragraph 2(c) under the Supplemental Plan shall be the benefit described in such Participants Excess Agreement.
(c)
(i) | If a Participant dies prior to commencement of the Participants benefit payments pursuant to paragraph 5(b) and the Participant has a Spouse on his or her date of death who is not eligible for a benefit under an Excess Agreement, the Supplemental Plan shall pay to the Participants Spouse an amount equal to the difference between the monthly pension the Spouse would be entitled to receive under the Qualified Plan, were it not for the Code Limitations, and the monthly pension the Spouse will actually receive under the Qualified Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participants Lump Sum Beneficiary is entitled to receive a benefit under paragraph 4(c)(ii), the Participants Spouse is not entitled to receive any benefit under this paragraph 4(c)(i). |
-4-
(ii) | If a Participant who is eligible for a benefit described in paragraph 4(a) and who has elected a Lump Sum Option pursuant to a Subsequent Election, dies after the date the Participants benefit would have commenced but for such Subsequent Election and prior to the Delayed Payment Date, the Supplemental Plan shall pay to the Participants Lump Sum Beneficiary an amount equal to the benefit that the Participant would have received had the Participant commenced his benefit one day prior to his death (such amount to include any interest accrued up to the Participants date of death as provided under paragraph 5(a)(iv)(D)) . |
5. | Payment of Benefits |
(a) | Form of Payment. |
(i) | Participants . Subject to the provisions of any domestic relations order described in paragraph 7(b), the benefits payable to Participants described in paragraphs 2(a), (b) or (c) (unless otherwise provided in an Excess Agreement with a Participant) under the Supplemental Plan shall be paid in the form of a monthly annuity for the life of the Participant (a Life Annuity) if the Participant does not have an Initial Election or Subsequent Election for the Lump Sum Option in effect. In lieu of receiving his or her benefit in the form of a Life Annuity, at any time prior to the date benefit payments are to commence in the form of a Life Annuity in accordance with paragraph 5(b) or the Excess Agreement, if applicable, a Participant described in paragraphs 2(a), (b) or (c) (if provided for in the Excess Agreement with Participant) may elect, on a written form acceptable to the Company, to receive his or her benefit in one of the following forms (the Optional Forms), each of which are actuarially equivalent to the Life Annuity: |
-5-
(A) | Joint Pension Option . The Joint Pension Option provides for monthly benefit payments to the Participant during his or her lifetime and thereafter to the Participants duly named joint pensioner, who shall be a natural person. The amount of each benefit payment to the Participant will be reduced so that the joint pensioner after the Participants death will receive a monthly benefit equivalent to 25%, 50%, 75% or 100%, as elected by the Participant at the time the Joint Pension Option is elected, of the monthly benefit paid to the Participant during his or her lifetime. If the joint pensioner dies after benefit payments to the Participant have started, the benefits will only be payable for the Participants lifetime. |
(B) | Ten Year Certain and Continuous Pension Option . The Ten Year Certain and Continuous Pension Option provides monthly pension payments to the Participant during his lifetime and if he dies after benefit payments have started but before receiving 120 benefit payments, the remainder of the 120 monthly benefit payments will be paid to the Participants beneficiary monthly. |
If a Participant elects an Optional Form that provides for a benefit to a joint pensioner or beneficiary, such joint pensioner or beneficiary shall be designated at the time the Participant elects such Optional Form. If a Participant has a DOMA Spouse and wants to designate a joint pensioner or beneficiary other than his or her DOMA Spouse, such designation will
-6-
not take effect unless (i) the Participants DOMA Spouse consents in writing to such election, the election designates a beneficiary or a form of benefits which may not be changed without spousal consent (or the consent of the DOMA Spouse expressly permits designations by the Participant without any requirement of further consent by the DOMA Spouse), and the DOMA Spouses consent acknowledges the effect of such election and is witnessed by a Plan representative or a notary public, or (ii) it is established to the satisfaction of a Plan representative that the consent required under (i) cannot be obtained because there is no DOMA Spouse, because the DOMA Spouse cannot be located, or because of such other circumstances as the Secretary of the Treasury may prescribe by regulations. Any consent by a DOMA Spouse or establishment that the consent of a DOMA Spouse may not be obtained shall be effective only with respect to such DOMA Spouse.
(ii) | Surviving Spouse and Lump Sum Beneficiary . Subject to paragraphs 5(a)(iii) and 5(a)(iv), any benefit payable to a surviving Spouse pursuant to paragraph 4(c)(i), shall be paid in the form of a monthly annuity for the life of the surviving Spouse. Any benefit payable to a Lump Sum Beneficiary pursuant to paragraph 4(c)(ii) shall be paid in a single, lump sum cash payment. |
-7-
(iii) | Election of Lump Sum Option Upon Initial Eligibility . |
(A) | Any Participant who is described in paragraphs 2(a) or (b) and who first accrues a benefit under the Supplemental Plan on and after January 1, 2011, may make an initial election, subject to the requirements of clause (B), below to receive his or her benefit and to provide that his or her Spouse will receive any Spouses benefit under the Supplemental Plan in the form of a single, lump sum, cash payment determined using the Plan Assumptions (a Lump Sum Option ) in lieu of receiving the benefits in the forms provided for under paragraphs 5(a)(i) and 5(a)(ii). Any such election that does not meet all of the requirements of this paragraph 5(a)(iii) shall not be valid and, in such case, such election shall be disregarded. A Participants or Spouses benefit paid in a Lump Sum Option will be the actuarial equivalent (determined in the calendar year benefits commence, or would commence but for any delay pursuant to paragraph 5(c), using the Plan Assumptions) of the Participants or Spouses benefit payable in the form a monthly annuity for the life of the Participant (for the Participants benefit) or the life of the Spouse (for the Spouses benefit) and commencing on the date specified in paragraph 5(b). |
(B) |
A Participant may only make an election described under paragraph 5(a)(iii)(A) if the election (1) is completed, in writing, signed by the Participant, in a form acceptable to the Administrator, and (2) is received by the Plan Administrator no later than 30 days after the first day of the Participants tax year immediately following the first year the Participant accrues a |
-8-
benefit under the Supplemental Plan. Any election made under this paragraph 5(a)(iii) will be irrevocable on the date the fully completed election form is received by the Administrator. |
(iv) | Subsequent Election of Lump Sum Option . |
(A) | Each Plan Year, Timken may, in its discretion, designate a period of time during which a Participant described in paragraphs 2(a), (b) or (c) (unless otherwise provided in an Excess Agreement), who is an employee of the Company on or after January 1, 2011 and who did not make an Initial Lump Sum Election, may make an election, subject to the requirements of clauses (B) and (C) below, to receive his or her benefit and to provide that his or her Spouse will receive any Spouses benefit under the Supplemental Plan or, if applicable, the Excess Agreement, in the form of a Lump Sum Option in lieu of receiving the benefits in the forms provided for under paragraphs 5(a)(i ) 5(a)(ii) and, if applicable, the forms provided under the Excess Agreement. |
(B) |
A Participants election described under paragraph 5(a)(iv)(A) must be filed with the Administrator, in writing, signed by the Participant, in a form acceptable to the Administrator (which for a Participant described in paragraph 2(c) may include an amendment to the Participants Excess Agreement) and must meet the following requirements: (1) the election is made at least 12 months prior to the date the Participants benefit would have |
-9-
commenced but for the Subsequent Election (if the commencement date is the Participants birthday or other specified time or fixed schedule described in Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-3(a)(4)) ; (2) except for a benefit being paid as a result of the Participants death, the payment under such election will be made on the date that is 5 years after the first date the Participants benefit could have commenced but for the Subsequent Election (the Delayed Payment Date); and (3) such election will not take effect until the date that is 12 months after the date on which such election becomes irrevocable. Any election made under this paragraph 5(a)(iv) will be irrevocable on the date the fully completed election forms (including an amendment to the Excess Agreement, if applicable) are received by the Administrator. |
(C) | Any such election that does not meet all of the requirements of this paragraph 5(a)(iv) shall not be valid and, in such case, shall be disregarded. Except as provided in an Excess Agreement, a Participants or Spouses benefit paid in a Lump Sum Option will be the actuarial equivalent (determined in the calendar year benefits would have commenced but for the Subsequent Election and any delay pursuant to paragraph 5(c) using the Plan Assumptions) of the Participant or Spouses benefit payable in the form of a monthly annuity for the life of the Participant (for the Participants benefit) or the life of the Spouse (for the Spouses benefit) and commencing on the date such benefit would have commenced but for the Subsequent Election. |
-10-
(D) | If a Participant makes an effective election for a Lump Sum Option under this paragraph 5(a)(iv), his or her benefit will be increased at an annual rate equal to the Average Interest Rate for the period beginning on the date the Participants benefit would have commenced but for the Subsequent Election and any delay pursuant to paragraph 5(c) and ending on the date the benefit actually commences. |
(b) | Time of Payment . |
(i) |
Participants . Subject to any required delay pursuant to paragraph 5(a)(iv)(B)(2), with respect to a Participant who is described in paragraphs 2(a), (b) or (c) (unless otherwise provided in an Excess Agreement with the Participant or in a Transition Election), the benefits payable to such Participant under this Supplemental Plan or the Excess Agreement, as applicable, shall commence within 30 days of the later of (A) the Participants separation from service, or (B) the Participants 55 th birthday. The term Transition Election means a Participants election made on or before December 31, 2008 in accordance with IRS Notice 2007-86 and other applicable guidance under Code Section 409A to designate the time at which the Participants benefits will commence. |
-11-

(c) Delayed Benefits for Specified Employees . Notwithstanding any provision of this Supplemental Plan to the contrary, if a Participant is a specified employee, determined pursuant to procedures adopted by the Company in compliance with Section 409A of the Code, on the date the Participant separates from service, then to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable pursuant to this Supplemental Plan during the six-month period immediately following the Participants separation from service will instead be paid or made available on the earlier of (i) the first business day of the seventh month after the date of the Participants separation from service, or (ii) the Participants death. Any benefit payments that are scheduled to be paid more than six months after such Participants separation from service shall not be delayed and shall be paid in accordance with the schedule prescribed by paragraphs 5(a) and 5(b).
(d) Small Benefit Cash-Out . Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary but subject to paragraph 5(c), if, upon a Participants separation from service, the actuarial present value of the benefit the Participant is entitled to receive under this Supplemental Plan and any other plans with respect to which deferrals of compensation are treated as having been deferred under a single nonqualified deferred compensation plan with the Supplemental Plan under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(c)(2) (the Aggregate Benefit) is less than $15,000, the Company may in its discretion pay the Participants entire Aggregate Benefit in a single lump sum payment on the 30 th day following the Participants separation from service. To determine the Aggregate Benefit under this paragraph 5(d), the Plan Assumptions will be used.

(e) Separation from Service . For purposes of this paragraph 5, separation from service or separates from service shall mean termination of employment (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)(1)(ii)) with the Company and any member of its controlled group (as such term is used for purposes of ERISA and the Code, except that a 50% ownership or common control threshold shall be used to determine controlled group status instead of an 80% ownership or common control threshold).

(b) Timken may, from time to time, delegate all or part of the administrative powers, duties, and authorities delegated to it under the Supplemental Plan to such person or persons, office or committee as it shall select. For the purposes of ERISA, Timken shall be the plan sponsor and the plan administrator.
(c) Whenever there is denied, whether in whole or in part, a claim for benefits under the Supplemental Plan filed by any person (herein referred to as the Claimant), the plan administrator shall transmit a written notice of such decision to the Claimant within 90 days of receiving the claim from the Claimant, which notice shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant and shall contain a statement of the specific reasons for the denial of the claim, a reference to the relevant Supplemental Plan provisions, a description and explanation of additional information needed, and a statement advising the Claimant that, within 60 days of the date on which he or she
-18-
receives such notice, he or she may obtain review of such decision in accordance with the procedures hereinafter set forth. Within such 60-day period, the Claimant or the Claimants authorized representative may request that the claim denial be reviewed by filing with the plan administrator a written request therefor, which request shall contain the following information:
(i) | the date on which the Claimants request was filed with the plan administrator; provided, however, that the date on which the Claimants request for review was in fact filed with the plan administrator shall control in the event that the date of the actual filing is later than the date stated by the Claimant pursuant to this paragraph; |
(ii) | the specific portions of the denial of the claim which the Claimant requests the plan administrator to review; |
(iii) | a statement by the Claimant setting forth the basis upon which the Claimant believes the plan administrator should reverse the previous denial of the Claimants claim for benefits and accept the claim as made; and |

Within 60 days of the date of such hearing, the plan administrator shall render its written decision on review, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the
-19-
Claimant and including the reasons and Plan provisions upon which its decision was based, a statement that the Claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and copies of all documents and other information relevant to the claim, and a statement describing the Claimants right to bring an action under Section 502(a) of ERISA.
9. | Amendment and Termination |
(a) Timken has reserved and does hereby reserve the right to amend, restate or terminate, at any time, any or all of the provisions of the Supplemental Plan, without the consent of any Participant, Spouse, beneficiary, or any other person. Without limiting the authority of the Board of Directors of Timken or a duly authorized committee thereof to amend, restate or terminate the Supplemental Plan, the Board of Directors of Timken has authorized and instructed its Senior Vice PresidentHuman Resources and Organizational Advancement (or any other officer or delegate of an officer) to amend, restate or terminate the Plan. Any amendment, restatement or termination of the Plan shall be expressed in an instrument executed in the name of Timken. Any such amendment, restatement or termination shall become effective as of the date designated in such instrument or, if no such date is specified, on the date of its execution.
(b) Notwithstanding paragraph 9(a) hereof, no amendment, restatement or termination of the Supplemental Plan shall, without the consent of the Participant (or, in the case of his or her death, his or her beneficiary or Spouse, as applicable), adversely affect (i) the benefit under the Supplemental Plan of any Participant, Spouse or beneficiary then entitled to receive a benefit under the Supplemental Plan or (ii) the right of any Participant to receive upon termination of employment with the Company (or the
-20-
right of the Participants Spouse or other beneficiary, as applicable, to receive upon the Participants death) that benefit which would have been received under the Supplemental Plan if such employment of the Participant had terminated immediately prior to the amendment, restatement or termination of the Supplemental Plan; provided, however, that the consent requirement of Participants, Spouses or other beneficiaries to certain actions shall not apply to any amendment or termination made by the Company pursuant to paragraph 11(b). Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, Timken, in its sole discretion, may terminate this Supplemental Plan in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix), or any successor provision.
10. | Restriction on Competition |
For a period of two years following a Participants separation from service, the Participant shall not (a) engage or participate, directly or indirectly, in any Competitive Activity (as defined below), or (b) solicit or cause to be solicited on behalf of a competitor any person or entity which was a customer of the Company during the three year period ending on the Participants retirement date, if the Employee had any direct responsibility for such customer while employed by the Company. The term Competitive Activity shall mean the Participants participation, without the written consent of an officer of the Company, in the management of any business enterprise if such enterprise engages in substantial and direct competition with the Company and such enterprises sales of any product or service competitive with any product or service of the Company amounted to 25% of such enterprises net sales for its most recently completed fiscal year and if the Companys net sales of said product or service amounted to 25% of the Companys net sales for its most recently completed fiscal year. Competitive Activity shall not include (y) the mere ownership of securities in any enterprise and exercise of rights appurtenant thereto or (z) participation in management of any enterprise or business operation
-21-
thereof other than in connection with the competitive operation of such enterprise. If a Participant engages in activity prohibited by this paragraph, then in addition to all other remedies available to the Company, the Company shall be released of any obligation under the Supplemental Plan to pay benefits to such Participant or to such Participants Spouse or beneficiary under the Supplemental Plan.
11. | Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. |
(a) To the extent applicable, it is intended that this Supplemental Plan (including all amendments thereto) comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, so that the income inclusion provisions of Section 409A(a)(1) of the Code do not apply to the Participant, Spouse or a beneficiary. This Supplemental Plan shall be administered in a manner consistent with this intent.
(b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Supplemental Plan to the contrary, in light of the uncertainty with respect to the proper application of Section 409A of the Code, Timken reserves the right to make amendments to this Supplemental Plan as Timken deems necessary or desirable to avoid the imposition of taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code. In any case, a Participant shall be solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on a Participant or for a Participants account in connection with this Supplemental Plan (including any taxes and penalties under Section 409A of the Code), and neither the Company nor any of its affiliates shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold a Participant harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, The Company has executed this amendment and restatement of this Plan at Canton, Ohio, this day of , .

For the purposes of this Agreement, the continuous employment of the Optionee with the Company or a Subsidiary shall not be deemed to have been interrupted, and the Optionee shall not be deemed to have ceased to be an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary, by reason of the transfer of his employment among the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(b) Change in Control :
(i) Upon a Change in Control occurring during the four-year period described in Section 1(a) above while the Optionee is an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary, to the extent the Option has not been forfeited, the Option shall become immediately exercisable in full, except to the extent that a Replacement Award is provided to the Optionee for such Option.
(ii) For purposes of this Agreement, a Replacement Award means an award (A) of stock options, (B) that have a value at least equal to the value of the Option, (C) that relates to publicly traded equity securities of the Company or its successor in the Change in Control (or another entity that is affiliated with the Company or its successor following the Change in Control), (D) the tax consequences of which, under the Code, if the Optionee is subject to U.S. federal income tax under the Code, are not less favorable to the Optionee than the tax consequences of the Option, (E) that vests in full upon a termination of the Optionees employment with Company or its successor in the Change in Control (or another entity that is affiliated with the Company or its successor following the Change in Control) for Good Reason by the Optionee or without Cause by such employer within a period of two years after the Change in Control, and (F) the other terms and conditions of which are not less favorable to the Optionee than the terms and conditions of the Option (including the provisions that would apply in the event of a subsequent Change in Control).

(b) three years after the date upon which the Optionee ceases to be an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary following (i) a Change in Control, (ii) a divestiture, or (iii) a layoff;

7. A djustments . Subject to Section 12 of the Plan, the Committee shall make any adjustments in the Option Price and the number or kind of shares of stock or other securities covered by the Option that the Committee may determine to be equitably required to prevent any dilution or expansion of the Optionees rights under this Agreement that otherwise would result from any (a) stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure of the Company, (b) merger, consolidation, separation, reorganization or partial or complete liquidation involving the Company or (c) other transaction or event having an effect similar to any of those referred to in subsection (a) or (b) herein. Furthermore, in the event that any transaction or event described or referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall occur, the Committee may provide in substitution of any or all of the Optionees rights under this Agreement such alternative consideration as the Committee may determine in good faith to be equitable under the circumstances.
8. Withholding Taxes . If the Company shall be required to withhold any federal, state, local or foreign tax in connection with any exercise of the Option, the Optionee shall pay the tax or make provisions that are satisfactory to the Company for the payment thereof. The Optionee may elect to satisfy all or any part of any such withholding obligation by surrendering to the Company a portion of the Common Shares that are issuable to the Optionee upon the
5
exercise of the Option. If such election is made, the shares so surrendered by the Optionee shall be credited against any such withholding obligation at their Market Value per Share on the date of such surrender. In no event, however, shall the Company accept Common Shares for payment of taxes in excess of required tax withholding rates. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at any time, the Optionee may surrender Common Shares owned for more than 6 months to satisfy any tax obligations resulting from any such transaction.
9. Detrimental Activity and Recapture .
(a) In the event that, as determined by the Committee, the Optionee shall engage in Detrimental Activity during employment with the Company or a Subsidiary, the Option will be forfeited automatically and without further notice at the time of that determination notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement.
(b) If a Restatement occurs and the Committee determines that the Optionee is personally responsible for causing the Restatement as a result of the Optionees personal misconduct or any fraudulent activity on the part of the Optionee, then the Committee has discretion to, based on applicable facts and circumstances and subject to applicable law, cause the Company to recover all or any portion (but no more than 100%) of the Option (and the Common Shares underlying the Option) awarded to the Optionee for some or all of the years covered by the Restatement. The amount of the Option (and the Common Shares underlying the Option) recovered by the Company shall be limited to the amount by which such Option (and the Common Shares underlying the Option) exceeded the amount that would have been awarded to the Optionee had the Companys financial statements for the applicable restated fiscal year or years been initially filed as restated, as reasonably determined by the Committee. The Committee shall also determine whether the Company shall effect any recovery under this Section 9(b) by: (i) seeking repayment from the Optionee; (ii) reducing, except with respect to any non-qualified deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code, the amount that would otherwise be payable to the Optionee under any compensatory plan, program or arrangement maintained by the Company (subject to applicable law and the terms and conditions of such plan, program or arrangement); (iii) by withholding, except with respect to any non-qualified deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code, payment of future increases in compensation (including the payment of any discretionary bonus amount) that would otherwise have been made to the Optionee in accordance with the Companys compensation practices; or (iv) by any combination of these alternatives. For purposes of this Agreement, Restatement means a restatement of any part of the Companys financial statements for any fiscal year or years after 20__ due to material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the U.S. securities laws applicable to such fiscal year or years.
10. No Right to Future Awards or Continued Employment . This Option is a voluntary, discretionary bonus being made on a one-time basis and it does not constitute a commitment to make any future awards. This Option and any payments made hereunder will not be considered salary or other compensation for purposes of any severance pay or similar allowance, except as otherwise required by law. Nothing in this Agreement will give the Optionee any right to continue employment with the Company or any Subsidiary, as the case may be, or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or a Subsidiary to terminate the employment of the Optionee.
6
11. Relation to Other Benefits . Any economic or other benefit to the Optionee under this Agreement or the Plan shall not be taken into account in determining any benefits to which the Optionee may be entitled under any profit-sharing, retirement or other benefit or compensation plan maintained by the Company or a Subsidiary and shall not affect the amount of any life insurance coverage available to any beneficiary under any life insurance plan covering employees of the Company or a Subsidiary.
12. Amendments . Any amendment to the Plan shall be deemed to be an amendment to this Agreement to the extent that the amendment is applicable hereto; provided , however , that no amendment shall adversely affect the rights of the Optionee with respect to the Option without the Optionees consent.
13. Severability . If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any provision hereof to any person or circumstances is held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision in any other person or circumstances shall not be affected, and the provisions so held to be invalid or unenforceable shall be reformed to the extent (and only to the extent) necessary to make it enforceable and valid.
14. Processing of Information . Information about the Optionee and the Optionees participation in the Plan may be collected, recorded and held, used and disclosed for any purpose related to the administration of the Plan. The Optionee understands that such processing of this information may need to be carried out by the Company and its Subsidiaries and by third party administrators whether such persons are located within the Optionees country or elsewhere, including the United States of America. The Optionee consents to the processing of information relating to the Optionee and the Optionees participation in the Plan in any one or more of the ways referred to above.
15. Governing Law . This Agreement is made under, and shall be construed in accordance with, the internal substantive laws of the State of Ohio.

(a) In the event that, as determined by the Committee, the Optionee shall engage in Detrimental Activity during employment with the Company or a Subsidiary, the Option will be forfeited automatically and without further notice at the time of that determination notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement.
(b) If a Restatement occurs and the Committee determines that the Optionee is personally responsible for causing the Restatement as a result of the Optionees personal misconduct or any fraudulent activity on the part of the Optionee, then the Committee has discretion to, based on applicable facts and circumstances and subject to applicable law, cause the Company to recover all or any portion (but no more than 100%) of the Option (and the Common Shares underlying the Option) awarded to the Optionee for some or all of the years covered by the Restatement. The amount of the Option (and the Common Shares underlying the Option) recovered by the Company shall be limited to the amount by which such Option (and the Common Shares underlying the Option) exceeded the amount that would have been awarded to the Optionee had the Companys financial statements for the applicable restated fiscal year or years been initially filed as restated, as reasonably determined by the Committee. The Committee shall also determine whether the Company shall effect any recovery under this Section 9(b) by: (i) seeking repayment from the Optionee; (ii) reducing, except with respect to any non-qualified deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code, the amount that would otherwise be payable to the Optionee under any compensatory plan, program or arrangement maintained by the Company (subject to applicable law and the terms and conditions of such plan, program or arrangement); (iii) by withholding, except with respect to any non-qualified deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code, payment of future increases in compensation (including the payment of any discretionary bonus amount) that would otherwise have been made to the Optionee in accordance with the Companys compensation practices; or (iv) by any combination of these alternatives. For purposes of this Agreement, Restatement means a restatement of any part of the Companys financial statements for any fiscal year or years after 20__ due to material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the U.S. securities laws applicable to such fiscal year or years.
10. No Right to Future Awards or Continued Employment . This Option is a voluntary, discretionary bonus being made on a one-time basis and it does not constitute a commitment to make any future awards. This Option and any payments made hereunder will not be considered salary or other compensation for purposes of any severance pay or similar allowance, except as otherwise required by law. Nothing in this Agreement will give the Optionee any right to continue employment with the Company or any Subsidiary, as the case may be, or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or a Subsidiary to terminate the employment of the Optionee.
6
11. Relation to Other Benefits . Any economic or other benefit to the Optionee under this Agreement or the Plan shall not be taken into account in determining any benefits to which the Optionee may be entitled under any profit-sharing, retirement or other benefit or compensation plan maintained by the Company or a Subsidiary and shall not affect the amount of any life insurance coverage available to any beneficiary under any life insurance plan covering employees of the Company or a Subsidiary.
12. Amendments . Any amendment to the Plan shall be deemed to be an amendment to this Agreement to the extent that the amendment is applicable hereto; provided, however, that no amendment shall adversely affect the rights of the Optionee with respect to the Option without the Optionees consent.
13. Severability . If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any provision hereof to any person or circumstances is held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision in any other person or circumstances shall not be affected, and the provisions so held to be invalid or unenforceable shall be reformed to the extent (and only to the extent) necessary to make it enforceable and valid.

4
For purposes of this Agreement, a layoff shall mean the involuntary termination by the Company or any subsidiary of Grantees employment with the Company or any subsidiary due to (i) a reduction in force leading to a permanent downsizing of the salaried workforce, (ii) a permanent shutdown of the plant, department or subdivision in which Grantee works, or (iii) an elimination of position.

The Company shall make reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws; provided, however, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any of the Common Shares covered by this Agreement if the issuance thereof would result in violation of any such law. To the extent that the Ohio Securities Act shall be applicable to this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any of the Common Shares or other securities covered by this Agreement unless such Common Shares are (a) exempt from registration thereunder, (b) the subject of a transaction that is exempt from compliance therewith, (c) registered by description or qualification thereunder or (d) the subject of a transaction that shall have been registered by description thereunder. |
8. |
Adjustments . The Committee shall make any adjustments in the number or kind of shares of stock or other securities covered by this Agreement that the Committee may determine to be equitably required to prevent any dilution or expansion of Grantees rights under this Agreement that otherwise would result from any (a) stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure of the Company, (b) merger, consolidation, separation, reorganization or partial or complete liquidation involving the Company or (c) other transaction or event having an effect similar to any of those referred to in Section 8(a) or 8(b) hereof.

5
9. | Withholding Taxes . To the extent that the Company is required to withhold federal, state, local or foreign taxes in connection with any benefit received (including income recognized) in connection with this Agreement, and the amounts available to the Company for such withholding are insufficient, it shall be a condition to the realization of such benefit that the Grantee make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for payment of the balance of such taxes required to be withheld. The Grantee may elect that all or any part of such withholding requirement be satisfied by retention by the Company of a portion of such benefit. If such election is made, the shares so retained shall be credited against such withholding requirement at the Market Price per Common Share on the date the shares are retained or relinquished. In no event, however, shall the Company accept Common Shares for payment of taxes in excess of required tax withholding rates, except that, unless otherwise determined by the Committee at any time, the Grantee may surrender Common Shares owned for more than 6 months to satisfy any tax obligations resulting from any such transaction. |

11. | Relation to Other Benefits . Any economic or other benefit to Grantee under this Agreement or the Plan shall not be taken into account in determining any benefits to which Grantee may be entitled under any profit-sharing, retirement or other benefit or compensation plan maintained by the Company or a subsidiary and shall not affect the amount of any life insurance coverage available to any beneficiary under any life insurance plan covering employees of the Company or a subsidiary. |
12. | Amendments . Any amendment to the Plan shall be deemed to be an amendment to this Agreement to the extent that the amendment is applicable hereto; provided, however, that no amendment shall adversely affect the rights of Grantee with respect to the Common Shares or other securities covered by this Agreement without Grantees consent. |
13. | Severability . In the event that one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be invalidated for any reason by a court of competent jurisdiction, any provision so invalidated shall be deemed to be separable from the other provisions hereof, and the remaining provisions hereof shall continue to be valid and fully enforceable. |
14. | Governing Law . This agreement is made under, and shall be construed in accordance with, the internal substantive laws of the State of Ohio. |

(iii) | Consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation or sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (a Business Combination), in each case, unless, following such Business Combination, (A) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Common Shares and Voting Shares immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 66-2/3% of, respectively, the then-outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the entity resulting from such Business Combination (including, without limitation, an entity which as a result of such transaction owns the Company or all or substantially all of the Companys assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions relative to each other as their ownership, immediately prior to such Business Combination, of the Common Shares and Voting Shares of the Company, as the case may be, (B) no Person (excluding any entity resulting from such Business Combination or any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or such entity resulting from such Business Combination) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 30% or more of, respectively, the then-outstanding shares of common stock of the entity resulting from such Business Combination, or the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities of such corporation except to the extent that such ownership existed prior to the Business Combination, and (C) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination were members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the execution of the initial agreement, or of the action of the Board, providing for such Business Combination; or |

(iv) | Approval by the shareholders of the Company of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company. |
(c) | Divestiture : Grantees right to receive the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends then accumulated with respect thereto shall become nonforfeitable if Grantees employment with the Company or a subsidiary terminates as the result of a divestiture. Subject to the terms and conditions of Section 5, Grantees nonforfeitable Common Shares and any related Deferred Cash Dividends shall be paid to him. |
For the purposes of this Agreement, the term divestiture shall mean a permanent disposition to a Person other than the Company or any subsidiary of a plant or other facility or property at which Grantee performs a majority of Grantees services whether such disposition is effected by means of a sale of assets, a sale of subsidiary stock or otherwise.
(d) | Layoff : If (i) Grantees employment with the Company or a subsidiary terminates as the result of a layoff and (ii) Grantee is entitled to receive severance pay pursuant to the terms of any severance pay plan of the Company in effect at the time of Grantees termination of employment that provides for severance pay calculated by multiplying Grantees base compensation by a specified severance period, then Grantees right to receive the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends then accumulated with respect thereto shall become nonforfeitable in an amount equal to 1.67% of the total number of Common Shares covered by this Agreement for each full month from the Date of Grant through the end of the severance period, along with any corresponding Deferred Cash Dividends, but in no event more than 100% of the total number of Common Shares covered by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Grantees employment is terminated as a result of layoff, after Grantee becomes eligible for retirement at or after age 62 under a retirement plan of the Company or a subsidiary, Grantee shall be entitled to receive all of the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends then accumulated with respect thereto, rather than the pro rata portion described in the previous sentence. |
For purposes of this Agreement, a layoff shall mean the involuntary termination by the Company or any subsidiary of Grantees employment with the Company or any subsidiary due to (i) a reduction in force leading to a permanent downsizing of the salaried workforce, (ii) a permanent shutdown of the plant, department or subdivision in which Grantee works, or (iii) an elimination of position.
3. |
Forfeiture of Awards . Grantees right to receive the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto shall be forfeited automatically and without further notice on the date that Grantee ceases to be an employee of the Company or a subsidiary prior to the fifth anniversary of the Date of |
4
Grant for any reason other than as described in Sections 1 or 2 hereof. In the event that Grantee shall intentionally commit an act that the Committee determines to be materially adverse to the interests of the Company or a subsidiary, Grantees right to receive the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto shall be forfeited at the time of that determination notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary. |
4. | Crediting of Deferred Cash Dividends . With respect to each of the Common Shares covered by this Agreement, Grantee shall be credited on the records of the Company with Deferred Cash Dividends in an amount equal to the amount per share of any cash dividends declared by the Board on the outstanding Common Shares during the period beginning on the Date of Grant and ending on the date upon which Grantees right to receive the Common Shares covered by this Agreement pursuant to Section 1 hereof or Section 2 hereof, as the case may be, becomes nonforfeitable. The Deferred Cash Dividends shall accumulate without interest. |
5. | Payment of Awards . Subject to the terms and conditions of Section 6 hereof, the Common Shares covered by this Agreement shall be issuable, and any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto, shall be payable to Grantee all in one lump sum amount. Such payment will be made to Grantee on the earliest of (a) a termination of employment on account of divestiture, as described in Section 2(c), or layoff, as described in Section 2(d), which constitutes Grantees separation from service with the Company (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and its corresponding regulations); provided, however, that in the case Grantee is a specified employee (determined pursuant to procedures adopted by the Company in compliance with Section 409A of the Code and its corresponding regulations) at the time of such termination of employment, Grantees payment shall be made on the date which is 6 months after the date of Grantees termination of employment with the Company, (b) Grantees death, (c) the date Grantee becomes permanently disabled, (d) the date payments would have been made in the absence of Section 2, or (e) the date of a change in control (as defined in Section 2(b)) but only if such event constitutes a permitted distribution event under Section 409A(a)(2) of the Code. |
6. | Compliance with Law . The Company shall make reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws; provided , however , notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any of the Common Shares covered by this Agreement or pay any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto if the issuance or payment thereof would result in violation of any such law. To the extent that the Ohio Securities Act shall be applicable to this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any of the Common Shares or other securities covered by this Agreement or pay any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto unless such Common Shares and Deferred Cash Dividends are (a) exempt from registration thereunder, (b) the subject of a transaction that is exempt from compliance therewith, (c) registered by description or qualification thereunder or (d) the subject of a transaction that shall have been registered by description thereunder. |
5
7. | Transferability . Neither Grantees right to receive the Common Shares covered by this Agreement nor his right to receive any Deferred Cash Dividends shall be transferable by Grantee except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any purported transfer in violation of this Section 7 shall be null and void, and the purported transferee shall obtain no rights with respect to such Shares. |
8. | Compliance with Section 409A of the Code . To the extent applicable, it is intended that this Agreement and the Plan comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement and the Plan shall be administered in a manner consistent with this intent, and any provision that would cause the Agreement or the Plan to fail to satisfy Section 409A of the Code shall have no force and effect until amended to comply with Section 409A of the Code (which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code and may be made by the Company without the consent of Grantee). |
9. | Adjustments . The Committee shall make any adjustments in the number or kind of shares of stock or other securities covered by this Agreement that the Committee may determine to be equitably required to prevent any dilution or expansion of Grantees rights under this Agreement that otherwise would result from any (a) stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure of the Company, (b) merger, consolidation, separation, reorganization or partial or complete liquidation involving the Company or (c) other transaction or event having an effect similar to any of those referred to in subsection (a) or (b) herein. Furthermore, in the event that any transaction or event described or referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall occur, the Committee may provide in substitution of any or all of Grantees rights under this Agreement such alternative consideration as the Committee may determine in good faith to be equitable under the circumstances. |
10. | Withholding Taxes . To the extent that the Company is required to withhold federal, state, local or foreign taxes in connection with any delivery of Common Shares to Grantee, and the amounts available to the Company for such withholding are insufficient, it shall be a condition to the receipt of such delivery that Grantee make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for payment of the balance of such taxes required to be withheld. Grantee may elect that all or any part of such withholding requirement be satisfied by retention by the Company of a portion of the Common Shares delivered to Grantee. If such election is made, the shares so retained shall be credited against such withholding requirement at the closing price per Common Share on the date of such delivery. |
11. | No Right to Future Awards or Employment . This award is a voluntary, discretionary bonus being made on a one-time basis and it does not constitute a commitment to make any future awards. This award and any payments made hereunder will not be considered salary or other compensation for purposes of any severance pay or similar allowance, except as otherwise required by law. No provision of this Agreement shall limit in any way whatsoever any right that the Company or a subsidiary may otherwise have to terminate Grantees employment at any time. |
6
12. | Relation to Other Benefits . Any economic or other benefit to Grantee under this Agreement or the Plan shall not be taken into account in determining any benefits to which Grantee may be entitled under any profit-sharing, retirement or other benefit or compensation plan maintained by the Company or a subsidiary and shall not affect the amount of any life insurance coverage available to any beneficiary under any life insurance plan covering employees of the Company or a subsidiary. |
13. | Processing of Information . Information about Grantee and Grantees award of Share Equivalents may be collected, recorded and held, used and disclosed for any purpose related to the administration of the award. Grantee understands that such processing of this information may need to be carried out by the Company and its Subsidiaries and by third party administrators whether such persons are located within Grantees country or elsewhere, including the United States of America. Grantee consents to the processing of information relating to Grantee and Grantees receipt of the Share Equivalents in any one or more of the ways referred to above. |
14. | Amendments . Any amendment to the Plan shall be deemed to be an amendment to this Agreement to the extent that the amendment is applicable hereto; provided , however , that subject to the provisions of Section 8 hereof no amendment shall adversely affect the rights of Grantee with respect to either the Common Shares or other securities covered by this Agreement or the Deferred Cash Dividends without Grantees consent. |
15. | Severability . If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any provision hereof to any person or circumstances is held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision in any other person or circumstances shall not be affected, and the provisions so held to be invalid or unenforceable shall be reformed to the extent (and only to the extent) necessary to make it enforceable and valid. |
16. | Governing Law . This Agreement is made under, and shall be construed in accordance with, the internal substantive laws of the State of Ohio. |

3. |
Forfeiture of Awards . Grantees right to receive the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto shall be forfeited automatically and without further notice on the date that Grantee ceases to be an employee of the Company or a subsidiary prior to the fourth anniversary of the Date of Grant for any reason other than as described in Sections 1 or 2. In the event that Grantee |
4
shall intentionally commit an act that the Committee determines to be materially adverse to the interests of the Company or a subsidiary, Grantees right to receive the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto shall be forfeited at the time of that determination notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary. |
4. | Crediting of Deferred Cash Dividends . With respect to each of the Common Shares covered by this Agreement, Grantee shall be credited on the records of the Company with Deferred Cash Dividends in an amount equal to the amount per share of any cash dividends declared by the Board on the outstanding Common Shares during the period beginning on the Date of Grant and ending on the date upon which Grantees right to receive the Common Shares covered by this Agreement pursuant to Section 1 or 2 hereof becomes nonforfeitable. The Deferred Cash Dividends shall accumulate without interest. |
5. | Payment of Awards . Subject to the terms and conditions of Section 6 hereof, the Common Shares covered by this Agreement shall be issuable, and any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto shall be payable, to Grantee in one lump sum amount. Such payments and issuances shall be made to Grantee on the earliest of (a) a termination of employment on account of divestiture, as described in Section 2(c), or layoff, as described in Section 2(d), which constitutes Grantees separation from service with the Company (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and its corresponding regulations); provided, however, that in the case Grantee is a specified employee (determined pursuant to procedures adopted by the Company in compliance with Section 409A of the Code and its corresponding regulations) at the time of such termination of employment, Grantees payment shall be made on the date which is 6 months after the date of Grantees termination of employment with the Company, (b) Grantees death, (c) the date Grantee becomes permanently disabled, (d) the date payments would have been made in the absence of Section 2, or (e) the date of a change in control (as defined in Section 2(b)) but only if such event constitutes a permitted distribution event under Section 409A(a)(2) of the Code. |

The Company shall make reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws; provided , however , notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any of the Common Shares covered by this Agreement or pay any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto if the issuance or payment thereof would result in violation of any such law. To the extent that the Ohio Securities Act shall be applicable to this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any of the Common Shares or other securities covered by this Agreement or pay any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto unless such Common Shares and Deferred Cash Dividends are (a) exempt from registration thereunder, (b) the subject of a transaction that is exempt from compliance therewith, (c) registered by description or qualification thereunder, or (d) the subject of a transaction that shall have been registered by description thereunder. |
5
7. | Transferability . Neither Grantees right to receive the Common Shares covered by this Agreement nor his right to receive any Deferred Cash Dividends shall be transferable by Grantee except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any purported transfer in violation of this Section 7 shall be null and void, and the purported transferee shall obtain no rights with respect to such Shares. |
8. | Compliance with Section 409A of the Code . To the extent applicable, it is intended that this Agreement and the Plan comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement and the Plan shall be administered in a manner consistent with this intent, and any provision that would cause the Agreement or the Plan to fail to satisfy Section 409A of the Code shall have no force and effect until amended to comply with Section 409A of the Code (which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code and may be made by the Company without the consent of Grantee). In particular, to the extent a Grantees right to receive Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends then accumulated with respect thereto becomes nonforfeitable pursuant to Section 2 and the event causing Grantees right to become nonforfeitable is an event that does not constitute a permitted distribution event under Section 409A(a)(2) of the Code, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5 above, Payment of Awards, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code, will be made to Grantee on the earlier of (a) Grantees separation from service with the Company (determined in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and its corresponding regulations); provided, however, that in the case Grantee is a specified employee (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and its corresponding regulations), Grantees date of payment shall be made on the date that is 6 months after the date of Grantees separation from service with the Company, (b) Grantees death, or (c) the date payments would have been made in accordance with Section 1. |
9. | Adjustments . The Committee shall make any adjustments in the number or kind of shares of stock or other securities covered by this Agreement that the Committee may determine to be equitably required to prevent any dilution or expansion of Grantees rights under this Agreement that otherwise would result from any (a) stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure of the Company, (b) merger, consolidation, separation, reorganization or partial or complete liquidation involving the Company, or (c) other transaction or event having an effect similar to any of those referred to in subsection (a) or (b) herein. Furthermore, in the event that any transaction or event described or referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall occur, the Committee may provide in substitution of any or all of Grantees rights under this Agreement such alternative consideration as the Committee may determine in good faith to be equitable under the circumstances. |
10. |
Withholding Taxes . If the Company is required to withhold federal, state, local, employment, or foreign taxes, or any other applicable taxes, in connection with Grantees right to receive Common Shares under this Agreement (regardless of whether Grantee is entitled to the delivery of any Common Shares at that time), and the amounts available to the Company for such withholding are insufficient, it shall be a condition to the receipt of |
6
any Common Shares or any other benefit provided for under this Agreement that Grantee make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for payment of the balance of the taxes. Grantee may satisfy such tax obligation by paying the Company cash via personal check. Alternatively, Grantee may elect that all or any part of such tax obligation be satisfied by the Companys retention of a portion of the Common Shares provided for under this Agreement or by Grantees surrender of a portion of the Common Shares that he or she has owned for at least 6 months. If an election is made to satisfy Grantees tax obligation with the release or surrender of Common Shares, the Common Shares shall be credited in the following manner: (i) at the closing price per Common Share on the date of delivery if the tax obligations arise due to the delivery of Common Shares under this Agreement, or (ii) at the closing price per Common Share on the date the tax obligation arises, if for a reason other than the delivery of Common Shares under this Agreement. |
11. | No Right to Future Awards or Employment . This award is a voluntary, discretionary bonus being made on a one-time basis and it does not constitute a commitment to make any future awards. This award and any payments made hereunder will not be considered salary or other compensation for purposes of any severance pay or similar allowance, except as otherwise required by law. No provision of this Agreement shall limit in any way whatsoever any right that the Company or a subsidiary may otherwise have to terminate Grantees employment at any time. |
12. | Relation to Other Benefits . Any economic or other benefit to Grantee under this Agreement or the Plan shall not be taken into account in determining any benefits to which Grantee may be entitled under any profit-sharing, retirement or other benefit or compensation plan maintained by the Company or a subsidiary and shall not affect the amount of any life insurance coverage available to any beneficiary under any life insurance plan covering employees of the Company or a subsidiary. |
13. | Processing of Information . Information about Grantee and Grantees award of Share Equivalents may be collected, recorded and held, used and disclosed for any purpose related to the administration of the award. Grantee understands that such processing of this information may need to be carried out by the Company and its Subsidiaries and by third party administrators whether such persons are located within Grantees country or elsewhere, including the United States of America. Grantee consents to the processing of information relating to Grantee and Grantees receipt of the Share Equivalents in any one or more of the ways referred to above. |
14. | Amendments . Any amendment to the Plan shall be deemed to be an amendment to this Agreement to the extent that the amendment is applicable hereto; provided , however , that subject to the provisions of Section 8 hereof no amendment shall adversely affect the rights of Grantee with respect to either the Common Shares or other securities covered by this Agreement or the Deferred Cash Dividends without Grantees consent. |
15. | Severability . If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any provision hereof to any person or circumstances is held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision in any other person or circumstances shall not be affected, and the provisions so held to be invalid or unenforceable shall be reformed to the extent (and only to the extent) necessary to make it enforceable and valid. |

For purposes of this Agreement, Grantees continuous employment with the Company or a Subsidiary shall not be deemed to have been interrupted, and Grantee shall not be deemed to have ceased to be an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary, by reason of any transfer of employment among the Company and its Subsidiaries.

If Grantee is deemed to be in the continuous employ of the Company or a Subsidiary pursuant to Section 1(b), 2(c) or 2(d), upon a Change in Control prior to the fifth anniversary of the Date of Grant, then the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends then accumulated with respect thereto will immediately become nonforfeitable, except that to the extent that Section 2(d) applies, the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends then accumulated with respect thereto will immediately become nonforfeitable only to the extent that the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends then accumulated with respect thereto would have become nonforfeitable during the severance period.
(ii) | For purposes of this Agreement, a Replacement Award means an award (A) of deferred shares, (B) that has a value at least equal to the value of the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto, (C) that relates to publicly traded equity securities of the Company or its successor in the Change in Control (or another entity that is affiliated with the Company or its successor following the Change in Control), (D) the tax consequences of which, under the Code, if Grantee is subject to U.S. federal income tax under the Code, are not less favorable to Grantee than the tax consequences of the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto, (E) that vests in full upon a termination of Grantees employment with Company or its successor in the Change in Control (or another entity that is affiliated with the Company or its successor following the Change in Control) for Good Reason by Grantee or without Cause by such employer within a period of two years after the Change in Control, and (F) the other terms and conditions of which are not less favorable to Grantee than the terms and conditions of the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends then accumulated with respect thereto (including the provisions that would apply in the event of a subsequent Change in Control).

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Replacement Award may take the form of a continuation of the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends then accumulated with respect thereto if the requirements of the preceding sentence are satisfied. The determination of whether the conditions of this Section 2(b)(ii) are satisfied will be made by the Committee, as constituted immediately before the Change in Control, in its sole discretion. |
3
(iii) | For purposes of Section 2(b)(ii), Cause will be defined not less favorably with respect to Grantee than: any intentional act of fraud, embezzlement or theft in connection with the Grantees duties with the Company, any intentional wrongful disclosure of secret processes or confidential information of the Company or a Subsidiary, or any intentional wrongful engagement in any competitive activity that would constitute a material breach of Grantees duty of loyalty to the Company, and no act, or failure to act, on the part of Grantee shall be deemed intentional unless done or omitted to be done by Grantee not in good faith and without reasonable belief that Grantees action or omission was in or not opposed to the best interest of the Company; provided , that for any Grantee who is party to an individual severance or employment agreement defining Cause, Cause will have the meaning set forth in such agreement. For purposes of Section 2(b)(ii), Good Reason will be defined to mean a material reduction in the nature or scope of the responsibilities, authorities or duties of Grantee attached to Grantees position held immediately prior to the Change in Control, a change of more than 60 miles in the location of Grantees principal office immediately prior to the Change in Control, or a material reduction in Grantees remuneration upon or after the Change in Control; provided , that no later than 90 days following an event constituting Good Reason Grantee gives notice to the Company of the occurrence of such event and the Company fails to cure the event within 30 days following the receipt of such notice. |
(iv) | If a Replacement Award is provided, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any outstanding Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends then accumulated with respect thereto which at the time of the Change in Control are not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) will be deemed to be nonforfeitable at the time of such Change in Control. |
(c) | Divestiture : If Grantees employment with the Company or a Subsidiary terminates as the result of a divestiture, then the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends then accumulated with respect thereto shall become nonforfeitable in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 1(a) as if Grantee had remained in the continuous employ of the Company or a Subsidiary from the Date of Grant until the fifth anniversary of the Date of Grant or the occurrence of a circumstance referenced in Section 2(a) or 2(b), whichever occurs first. |
For the purposes of this Agreement, the term divestiture shall mean a permanent disposition to a Person other than the Company or any Subsidiary of a plant or other facility or property at which Grantee performs a majority of Grantees services whether such disposition is effected by means of a sale of assets, a sale of Subsidiary stock or otherwise.
4
(d) | Layoff : If (i) Grantees employment with the Company or a Subsidiary terminates as the result of a layoff and (ii) Grantee is entitled to receive severance pay pursuant to the terms of any severance pay plan of the Company in effect at the time of Grantees termination of employment that provides for severance pay calculated by multiplying Grantees base compensation by a specified severance period, then Grantees right to receive the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends then accumulated with respect thereto shall become nonforfeitable in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 1(a) as if Grantee had remained in the continuous employ of the Company or a Subsidiary from the Date of Grant until the end of the severance period or the occurrence of a circumstance referenced in Section 2(a) or 2(b), whichever occurs first. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Grantees employment is terminated as a result of layoff after Grantee becomes eligible for retirement at or after age 62 under a retirement plan of the Company or a Subsidiary, then Section 1(b) shall govern. |
For purposes of this Agreement, a layoff shall mean the involuntary termination by the Company or any Subsidiary of Grantees employment with the Company or any Subsidiary due to (i) a reduction in force leading to a permanent downsizing of the salaried workforce, (ii) a permanent shutdown of the plant, department or subdivision in which Grantee works, or (iii) an elimination of position.
3. | Forfeiture of Awards . Grantees right to receive the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto shall be forfeited automatically and without further notice on the date that Grantee ceases to be an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary prior to the fifth anniversary of the Date of Grant for any reason other than as described in Sections 1 or 2 hereof. In the event that Grantee shall intentionally commit an act that the Committee determines to be materially adverse to the interests of the Company or a Subsidiary, Grantees right to receive the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto shall be forfeited at the time of that determination notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary. |
4. | Crediting of Deferred Cash Dividends . With respect to each of the Common Shares covered by this Agreement, Grantee shall be credited on the records of the Company with Deferred Cash Dividends in an amount equal to the amount per share of any cash dividends declared by the Board on the outstanding Common Shares during the period beginning on the Date of Grant and ending on the date on which Grantee receives payment of the Common Shares covered by this Agreement pursuant to Section 5 hereof or at the time when the Common Shares covered by this Agreement are forfeited in accordance with Section 3 of this Agreement. The Deferred Cash Dividends shall accumulate without interest. |
5
5. | Payment of Awards . |
(a) | General : Subject to Section 3 and Section 5(b), payment for the Common Shares covered by this Agreement that are nonforfeitable and any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto will be made within 10 days following the fifth anniversary of the Date of Grant. |
(b) | Other Payment Events : Notwithstanding Section 5(a), to the extent that the Common Shares covered by this Agreement are nonforfeitable on the dates set forth below, payment with respect to the Common Shares covered by this Agreement that have become nonforfeitable and any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto will be made as follows: |
(i) | Change in Control . Upon a Change in Control, Grantee is entitled to receive payment for the Common Shares covered by this Agreement that are nonforfeitable and any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto on the date of the Change in Control; provided , however , that if such Change in Control would not qualify as a permissible date of distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(A) of the Code, and the regulations thereunder, and where Section 409A of the Code applies to such distribution, Grantee is entitled to receive the corresponding payment on the date that would have otherwise applied pursuant to Sections 5(a) or 5(b)(ii) as though such Change in Control had not occurred. |
(ii) | Death or Disability . On the date of Grantees death or the date Grantee becomes permanently disabled, Grantee is entitled to receive payment for the Common Shares covered by this Agreement that are nonforfeitable and any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto on such date. |
6. | Compliance with Law . The Company shall make reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws; provided , however , notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any of the Common Shares covered by this Agreement or pay any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto if the issuance or payment thereof would result in violation of any such law. To the extent that the Ohio Securities Act shall be applicable to this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any of the Common Shares or other securities covered by this Agreement or pay any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto unless such Common Shares and Deferred Cash Dividends are (a) exempt from registration thereunder, (b) the subject of a transaction that is exempt from compliance therewith, (c) registered by description or qualification thereunder or (d) the subject of a transaction that shall have been registered by description thereunder. |
7. | Transferability . Neither Grantees right to receive the Common Shares covered by this Agreement nor his right to receive any Deferred Cash Dividends shall be transferable by Grantee except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any purported transfer in violation of this Section 7 shall be null and void, and the purported transferee shall obtain no rights with respect to such Shares. |
6
8. | Compliance with Section 409A of the Code . To the extent applicable, it is intended that this Agreement and the Plan comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement and the Plan shall be administered in a manner consistent with this intent, and any provision that would cause the Agreement or the Plan to fail to satisfy Section 409A of the Code shall have no force and effect until amended to comply with Section 409A of the Code (which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code and may be made by the Company without the consent of Grantee). |
9. | Adjustments . Subject to Section 12 of the Plan, the Committee shall make any adjustments in the number or kind of shares of stock or other securities covered by this Agreement that the Committee may determine to be equitably required to prevent any dilution or expansion of Grantees rights under this Agreement that otherwise would result from any (a) stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure of the Company, (b) merger, consolidation, separation, reorganization or partial or complete liquidation involving the Company or (c) other transaction or event having an effect similar to any of those referred to in subsection (a) or (b) herein. Furthermore, in the event that any transaction or event described or referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall occur, the Committee may provide in substitution of any or all of Grantees rights under this Agreement such alternative consideration as the Committee may determine in good faith to be equitable under the circumstances. |
10. | Withholding Taxes . To the extent that the Company is required to withhold federal, state, local or foreign taxes in connection with any delivery of Common Shares to Grantee, and the amounts available to the Company for such withholding are insufficient, it shall be a condition to the receipt of such delivery that Grantee make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for payment of the balance of such taxes required to be withheld. Grantee may elect that all or any part of such withholding requirement be satisfied by retention by the Company of a portion of the Common Shares delivered to Grantee. If such election is made, the shares so retained shall be credited against such withholding requirement at the Market Value per Share on the date of such delivery. |
11. | Detrimental Activity and Recapture . |
(a) | In the event that, as determined by the Committee, Grantee shall engage in Detrimental Activity during employment with the Company or a Subsidiary, the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto will be forfeited automatically and without further notice at the time of that determination notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement. |
(b) |
If a Restatement occurs and the Committee determines that Grantee is personally responsible for causing the Restatement as a result of Grantees personal misconduct or any fraudulent activity on the part of Grantee, then the Committee has discretion to, based on applicable facts and circumstances and subject to applicable law, cause the Company to recover all or any portion (but no more than |
7
100%) of the Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto earned or payable to Grantee for some or all of the years covered by the Restatement. The amount of any earned or payable Common Shares covered by this Agreement and any Deferred Cash Dividends accumulated with respect thereto recovered by the Company shall be limited to the amount by which such earned or payable Common Shares and Deferred Cash Dividends exceeded the amount that would have been earned by or paid to Grantee had the Companys financial statements for the applicable restated fiscal year or years been initially filed as restated, as reasonably determined by the Committee. The Committee shall also determine whether the Company shall effect any recovery under this Section 11(b) by: (i) seeking repayment from Grantee; (ii) reducing, except with respect to any non-qualified deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code, the amount that would otherwise be payable to Grantee under any compensatory plan, program or arrangement maintained by the Company (subject to applicable law and the terms and conditions of such plan, program or arrangement); (iii) by withholding, except with respect to any non-qualified deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code, payment of future increases in compensation (including the payment of any discretionary bonus amount) that would otherwise have been made to Grantee in accordance with the Companys compensation practices; or (iv) by any combination of these alternatives. For purposes of this Agreement, Restatement means a restatement of any part of the Companys financial statements for any fiscal year or years after 20__ due to material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the U.S. securities laws applicable to such fiscal year or years. |
12. | No Right to Future Awards or Employment . This award is a voluntary, discretionary bonus being made on a one-time basis and it does not constitute a commitment to make any future awards. This award and any payments made hereunder will not be considered salary or other compensation for purposes of any severance pay or similar allowance, except as otherwise required by law. No provision of this Agreement shall limit in any way whatsoever any right that the Company or a Subsidiary may otherwise have to terminate Grantees employment at any time. |
13. | Relation to Other Benefits . Any economic or other benefit to Grantee under this Agreement or the Plan shall not be taken into account in determining any benefits to which Grantee may be entitled under any profit-sharing, retirement or other benefit or compensation plan maintained by the Company or a Subsidiary and shall not affect the amount of any life insurance coverage available to any beneficiary under any life insurance plan covering employees of the Company or a Subsidiary. |
14. | Processing of Information . Information about Grantee and Grantees award of Common Shares and Deferred Cash Dividends may be collected, recorded and held, used and disclosed for any purpose related to the administration of the award. Grantee understands that such processing of this information may need to be carried out by the Company and its Subsidiaries and by third party administrators whether such persons are located within Grantees country or elsewhere, including the United States of America. Grantee consents to the processing of information relating to Grantee and Grantees receipt of the Common Shares and Deferred Cash Dividends in any one or more of the ways referred to above. |
8
15. | Amendments . Any amendment to the Plan shall be deemed to be an amendment to this Agreement to the extent that the amendment is applicable hereto; provided , however , that subject to the provisions of Section 8 hereof no amendment shall adversely affect the rights of Grantee with respect to either the Common Shares or other securities covered by this Agreement or the Deferred Cash Dividends without Grantees consent. |
16. | Severability . If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any provision hereof to any person or circumstances is held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision in any other person or circumstances shall not be affected, and the provisions so held to be invalid or unenforceable shall be reformed to the extent (and only to the extent) necessary to make it enforceable and valid. |
17. | Governing Law . This Agreement is made under, and shall be construed in accordance with, the internal substantive laws of the State of Ohio. |
