We have not established deferred income taxes with respect to undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries.
Earnings expected to remain reinvested indefinitely were approximately $9.3 billion as of December 31, 2013. Upon
distribution as dividends or otherwise, such amounts would be subject to taxation in the U.S. as well as foreign countries.
However, U.S. income tax liabilities would be offset, in whole or in part, by allowable tax credits deriving from income taxes
previously paid to foreign jurisdictions. Further, repatriation of all earnings of foreign subsidiaries would be impracticable to the
extent that such earnings represent capital needed to support normal business operations in those jurisdictions. As a result, we
currently believe that any incremental U.S. income tax liabilities arising from the repatriation of distributable earnings of
foreign subsidiaries would not be material.
