(1)
The curtailment gain recognized on pension benefits during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 relates to the re-measurement of the pension benefit obligation in conjunction with plan provision changes for non-exempt employees not subject to a collective bargaining agreement (“impacted employees”). The Company recorded this gain in Selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
(2)
The actuarial loss (gain) recognized on pension benefits during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 mainly relates to the increase/decrease in projected benefit obligation due to the decrease in discount rate as a result of the annual re-measurement. The Company recorded this gain in Selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
