(the "Company") approved a new restructuring program under the Company's multi-year turnaround plan, which targets increasing levels of efficiency and organizational effectiveness across the Company's global operations. The new program focuses on initiatives to restructure the Company's global supply chain operations, realign certain local business support functions to a more regional basis to drive increased efficiencies, and streamline transaction-related services, including selective outsourcing. The Company anticipates restructuring charges and other costs to implement these initiatives in the range of $300 to $400 million before taxes over the next several years, with implementation anticipated to begin in the second half of 2009 and to be completed by 2012 - 2013.
