THE GOODYEAR TIRE & RUBBER COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company (the “Company,” “Goodyear,” “we,” “us” or “our”) in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations and generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP") and in the opinion of management contain all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012 Form 10-K”).
We are a party to shareholder agreements concerning certain of our less-than-wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries. Under the terms of certain of these agreements, the minority shareholders have the right to require us to purchase their ownership interests in the respective subsidiaries if there is a change in control of Goodyear, a bankruptcy of Goodyear, or other circumstances. Accordingly, we have reported the minority equity in those subsidiaries outside of shareholders’ equity.
Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected in subsequent quarters or for the year ending December 31, 2013.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an accounting standards update requiring the presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryfoward. This net presentation is required unless a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryfoward is not available at the reporting date or the tax law of the jurisdiction does not require, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset to settle any additional income tax that would result from the disallowance of the unrecognized tax benefit. The standards update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this standards update will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2013, the FASB issued an accounting standards update providing guidance with respect to the release of cumulative translation adjustments into net income when a parent sells either a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity. The standards update also requires the release of cumulative translation adjustments when a company no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a business within a foreign entity, and provides guidance for the acquisition in stages of a controlling interest in a foreign entity. The standards update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this standards update will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2013, the FASB issued an accounting standards update requiring an entity to record obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation is fixed at the reporting date. The standards update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this standards update will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In July 2012, the FASB issued an accounting standards update with new guidance on annual impairment testing of indefinite-lived intangible assets. The standards update allows an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount. If based on its qualitative assessment an entity concludes it is more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount, quantitative impairment testing is required. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, quantitative impairment testing is not required. The standards update is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. We assess goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives for impairment annually as of July 31. The adoption of this standards update will not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
Effective January 1, 2013, we adopted an accounting standards update with new guidance on the presentation of reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive loss to net income. This standard requires an entity to present reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive loss to net income either on the face of the statements or in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, we have presented such reclassifications in Note 14, Reclassifications Out Of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss, to the consolidated financial statements.
Effective January 1, 2013, we adopted accounting standards updates with new guidance on disclosures related to financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either offset by or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement and have expanded our disclosure to discuss amounts eligible for offsetting under our master netting agreements.
Reclassifications and Adjustments
Certain items previously reported in specific financial statement captions have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. In the first quarter of 2012, we recorded an out of period adjustment of $13 million of additional interest expense to correct capitalized interest recorded in prior periods.

NOTE 2. COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH RATIONALIZATION PROGRAMS
In order to maintain our global competitiveness, we have implemented rationalization actions over the past several years to reduce high-cost manufacturing capacity and associate headcount. The following table shows the roll forward of our liability between periods:

Rationalization actions initiated in 2013 consisted primarily of manufacturing reductions in Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) and Latin America and selling, administrative and general expense (“SAG”) headcount reductions in Asia Pacific and EMEA.
The accrual balance of $222 million at June 30, 2013 is expected to be substantially utilized within the next 12 months and includes $168 million relating to plans associated with the announced closure of one of our manufacturing facilities in Amiens, France.

Substantially all of the new charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 related to future cash outflows. Net charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 included reversals of $4 million and $7 million, respectively, and net charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 included reversals of $1 million and $2 million, respectively, for actions no longer needed for their originally intended purposes.
Approximately 200 associates will be released under plans initiated in 2013, of which approximately 100 associates have been released as of June 30, 2013. In total, approximately 1,600 associates remain to be released under prior year rationalization plans, including approximately 1,200 associates related to the announced plan to exit the farm tire business and close one of our facilities in Amiens, France.
Accelerated depreciation charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 related primarily to property and equipment in one of our facilities in Amiens, France. Accelerated depreciation charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 were primarily related to property and equipment in our Dalian, China manufacturing facility. Accelerated depreciation charges for all periods were recorded in cost of goods sold (“CGS”).

Net foreign currency exchange gains were $5 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to net losses of $6 million in the second quarter of 2012. Net losses in the first six months of 2013 were $118 million, which included a net loss of $115 million resulting from the devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar fuerte against the U.S. dollar, compared to net losses of $17 million in the first six months of 2012. Foreign currency exchange also reflects net gains and losses resulting from the effect of exchange rate changes on various foreign currency transactions worldwide.
Effective February 13, 2013, Venezuela's official exchange rate changed from 4.3 to 6.3 bolivares fuertes to the U.S. dollar for substantially all goods. In the first quarter of 2013, we recorded a $115 million remeasurement loss on bolivar-denominated net monetary assets and liabilities, including deferred taxes, primarily related to cash deposits in Venezuela. We also recorded a one-time subsidy receivable of $13 million related to certain U.S. dollar-denominated payables that are expected to be settled at the official subsidy exchange rate of 4.3 bolivares fuertes per U.S. dollar applicable to certain import purchases prior to the devaluation date. A portion of this subsidy will reduce cost of goods sold in future periods when the related inventory is sold.
Royalty income in the second quarter of 2013 was $19 million, compared to royalty income of $10 million in the second quarter of 2012. Royalty income in the second quarter of 2013 included a one-time royalty of $8 million related to chemical operations. Royalty income is derived primarily from licensing arrangements related to divested businesses.
Financing fees were $14 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to $34 million in the second quarter of 2012. Financing fees in the second quarter of 2012 included $24 million of debt issuance costs primarily related to the amendment and restatement of our U.S. second lien term loan facility. Financing fees in the first six months of 2013 were $27 million, compared to $129 million in the first six months of 2012. Financing fees in 2012 included, in addition to the second quarter debt issuance costs referred to above, charges of $86 million related to the redemption of $650 million in aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 10.5% senior notes due 2016, of which $59 million related to cash premiums paid on the redemption and $27 million related to the write-off of deferred financing fees and unamortized discount. Financing fees and financial instruments also include the amortization of deferred financing fees, commitment fees and other charges incurred in connection with financing transactions.
Interest income consists primarily of amounts earned on cash deposits. General and product liability — discontinued products includes charges for claims against us related primarily to asbestos personal injury claims, net of probable insurance recoveries.

Net gains on asset sales were $5 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to net gains on asset sales of $13 million in the second quarter of 2012. Net gains on asset sales were $3 million for the first six months of 2013, compared to net gains on asset sales of $17 million for the first six months of 2012. Net gains on asset sales in 2013 include gains on the transfer of property in Dalian, China to the Chinese government and the sale of property in North America. Net gains on asset sales in 2012 included a second quarter gain on the sale of a minority interest in a retail business in EMEA and the sale of certain assets related to our bias tire business in Latin America.
Miscellaneous expense in the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 includes a charge of $5 million, and in the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 includes a charge of $20 million, related to labor claims in EMEA.

NOTE 4. INCOME TAXES
In the second quarter of 2013, we recorded tax expense of $63 million on income before income taxes of $256 million. Income tax expense in the second quarter of 2013 was unfavorably impacted by a $5 million adjustment related to prior years and a $3 million settlement of a foreign tax audit. For the first six months of 2013, we recorded tax expense of $82 million on income before income taxes of $306 million. Income tax expense for the first six months of 2013 was favorably impacted by $4 million due primarily to recently enacted law changes. In the second quarter of 2012, we recorded tax expense of $63 million on income before income taxes of $166 million. Income tax expense in the second quarter of 2012 was unfavorably impacted by $3 million due to various discrete items. For the first six months of 2012, we recorded tax expense of $111 million on income before income taxes of $222 million. Income tax expense for the first six months 2012 was unfavorably impacted by $6 million due primarily to the settlement of prior tax years.
We record taxes based on overall estimated annual effective tax rates. In addition to the discrete items noted above, the difference between our effective tax rate and the U.S. statutory rate was primarily attributable to continuing to maintain a full valuation allowance against our net Federal, State and certain foreign jurisdictions' deferred tax assets.
At January 1, 2013, we had unrecognized tax benefits of $82 million that if recognized, would have a favorable impact on our tax expense of $70 million. We had accrued interest of $20 million as of January 1, 2013. If not favorably settled, $24 million of the unrecognized tax benefits and all of the accrued interest would require the use of our cash. It is reasonably possible that our total amount of unrecognized tax benefits may change during the next 12 months. However, we do not expect these changes to have a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations.
Generally, years from 2007 onward are still open to examination by foreign taxing authorities. We are open to examination in Germany from 2006 onward and in the United States for 2012.

Weighted average shares outstanding - diluted for the six months ended June 30, 2012 excludes the effect of approximately 34 million equivalent shares related to our mandatory convertible preferred stock, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. In addition, Goodyear net income used to compute earnings per common share - diluted for the six months ended June 30, 2012 is reduced by $15 million of preferred stock dividends since the inclusion of the related shares of preferred stock would have been anti-dilutive.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)


NOTES
$900 million 6.5% Senior Notes due 2021
On February 25, 2013, we issued $900 million aggregate principal amount of 6.5% senior notes due 2021. These notes were sold at 100% of the principal amount and will mature on March 1, 2021. These notes are unsecured senior obligations and are guaranteed by our U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries that also guarantee our obligations under our U.S. senior secured credit facilities described below.
We have the option to redeem these notes, in whole or in part, at any time on or after March 1, 2016 at a redemption price of 104.875%, 103.25%, 101.625% and 100% during the 12-month periods commencing on March 1, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 and thereafter, respectively, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. Prior to March 1, 2016, we may redeem these notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus a make-whole premium and accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. In addition, prior to March 1, 2016, we may redeem up to 35% of the original aggregate principal amount of these notes from the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 106.5% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.
The terms of the indenture for these notes, among other things, limit our ability and the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to (i) incur additional debt or issue redeemable preferred stock, (ii) pay dividends or make certain other restricted payments or investments, (iii) incur liens, (iv) sell assets, (v) incur restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends to us, (vi) enter into affiliate transactions, (vii) engage in sale and leaseback transactions, and (viii) consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets. These covenants are subject to significant exceptions and qualifications. For example, if these notes are assigned an investment grade rating by Moody's and Standard & Poor's and no default has occurred or is continuing, certain covenants will be suspended. The indenture has customary defaults, including a cross-default to material indebtedness of Goodyear and our subsidiaries.
CREDIT FACILITIES
$2.0 billion Amended and Restated First Lien Revolving Credit Facility due 2017
Our amended and restated first lien revolving credit facility is available in the form of loans or letters of credit, with letter of credit availability limited to $800 million. Subject to the consent of the lenders whose commitments are to be increased, we may request that the facility be increased by up to $250 million. Our obligations under the facility are guaranteed by most of our wholly-owned U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries. Our obligations under the facility and our subsidiaries' obligations under the related guarantees are secured by first priority security interests in a variety of collateral. Amounts drawn under this facility will bear interest at LIBOR plus 150 basis points.
Availability under the facility is subject to a borrowing base, which is based primarily on eligible accounts receivable and inventory of The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company and certain of its U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries. To the extent that our eligible accounts receivable and inventory decline, our borrowing base will decrease and the availability under the facility may decrease below $2.0 billion. As of June 30, 2013, our borrowing base, and therefore our availability, under this facility was $459 million below the facility's stated amount of $2.0 billion.
The facility has customary representations and warranties including, as a condition to borrowing, that all such representations and warranties are true and correct, in all material respects, on the date of the borrowing, including representations as to no material adverse change in our consolidated financial condition since December 31, 2011. The facility also has customary defaults, including a cross-default to material indebtedness of Goodyear and our subsidiaries.
At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we had no borrowings outstanding under the first lien revolving credit facility. Letters of credit issued totaled $394 million at June 30, 2013 and $407 million at December 31, 2012.
$1.2 billion Amended and Restated Second Lien Term Loan Facility due 2019
Our obligations under our amended and restated second lien term loan facility are guaranteed by most of our wholly-owned U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries and are secured by second priority security interests in the same collateral securing the $2.0 billion first lien revolving credit facility. This facility may be increased by up to $300 million at our request, subject to the consent of the lenders making such additional term loans. The term loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 375 basis points, subject to a minimum LIBOR rate of 100 basis points.
At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, this facility was fully drawn.

€400 million Amended and Restated Senior Secured European Revolving Credit Facility due 2016
Our amended and restated €400 million European revolving credit facility consists of (i) a €100 million German tranche that is available only to Goodyear Dunlop Tires Germany GmbH (the “German borrower”) and (ii) a €300 million all-borrower tranche that is available to Goodyear Dunlop Tires Europe B.V. (“GDTE"), the German borrower and certain of GDTE's other subsidiaries. Up to €50 million in letters of credit are available for issuance under the all-borrower tranche. Amounts drawn under this facility will bear interest at LIBOR plus 250 basis points for loans denominated in U.S. dollars or pounds sterling and EURIBOR plus 250 basis points for loans denominated in euros.
GDTE and certain of its subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, Luxembourg, France and Germany provide guarantees to support the facility. The German guarantors secure the German tranche on a first-lien basis and the all-borrower tranche on a second-lien basis. GDTE and its other subsidiaries that provide guarantees secure the all-borrower tranche on a first-lien basis and do not provide collateral support for the German tranche. The Company and its U.S. subsidiaries and primary Canadian subsidiary that guarantee our U.S. senior secured credit facilities described above also provide unsecured guarantees in support of the facility.
The facility has customary representations and warranties including, as a condition to borrowing, that all such representations and warranties are true and correct, in all material respects, on the date of the borrowing, including representations as to no material adverse change in either our or GDTE's consolidated financial condition since December 31, 2010. The facility also has customary defaults, including a cross-default to material indebtedness of Goodyear and our subsidiaries.
At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there were no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility. Letters of credit issued under the all-borrower tranche totaled $10 million (€7 million) at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
International Accounts Receivable Securitization Facilities (On-Balance Sheet)
GDTE and certain of its subsidiaries are parties to a pan-European accounts receivable securitization facility that provides up to €450 million of funding and expires in 2015. Availability under this facility is based on eligible receivable balances. The facility is subject to the customary renewal of its back-up liquidity commitments, which expire on October 17, 2014.
The facility involves an ongoing daily sale of substantially all of the trade accounts receivable of certain GDTE subsidiaries to a bankruptcy-remote French company controlled by one of the liquidity banks in the facility. These subsidiaries retain servicing responsibilities. At June 30, 2013, the amounts available and utilized under this program totaled $345 million (€265 million). At December 31, 2012, the amounts available and utilized under this program totaled $348 million (€264 million) and $192 million (€145 million), respectively. The program does not qualify for sale accounting, and accordingly, these amounts are included in Long Term Debt and Capital Leases.
In addition to the pan-European accounts receivable securitization facility discussed above, subsidiaries in Australia have an accounts receivable securitization program that provides up to $87 million (95 million Australian dollars) of funding. Availability under this program is based on eligible receivable balances. At June 30, 2013, the amounts available and utilized under this program were $57 million. At December 31, 2012, the amounts available and utilized under this program were $99 million and $40 million, respectively. The receivables sold under this program also serve as collateral for the related facility. We retain the risk of loss related to these receivables in the event of non-payment. These amounts are included in Long Term Debt and Capital Leases due Within One Year.
For a description of the collateral securing the credit facilities described above as well as the covenants applicable to them, refer to the Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 14, Financing Arrangements and Derivative Financial Instruments, in our 2012 Form 10-K.
Accounts Receivable Factoring Facilities (Off-Balance Sheet)
Various subsidiaries sold certain of their trade receivables under off-balance sheet programs. For these programs, we have concluded that there is generally no risk of loss to us from non-payment of the sold receivables. At June 30, 2013, the gross amount of receivables sold was $282 million, compared to $243 million at December 31, 2012.

Other Foreign Credit Facilities
A Chinese subsidiary has several financing arrangements in China. At June 30, 2013, these non-revolving credit facilities were fully drawn and can only be used to finance the relocation and expansion of our manufacturing facility in China. Borrowings outstanding under these facilities were $531 million and $471 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The facilities mature in 2020 and principal amortization begins in 2015. The facilities contain covenants relating to the Chinese subsidiary and have customary representations and warranties and defaults relating to the Chinese subsidiary’s ability to perform its obligations under the facilities. At June 30, 2013, restricted cash of $32 million was related to funds obtained under these credit facilities. At December 31, 2012, there was no restricted cash related to funds obtained under these credit facilities.
OTHER DOMESTIC DEBT
Global and North America Headquarters
In 2011, we entered into agreements for the construction of a new Global and North America Headquarters facility in Akron, Ohio. We concurrently entered into an agreement to occupy the facility under a 27-year lease, including the two-year construction period, with multiple renewal options available at our discretion. Additionally, we entered into similar agreements for the construction and lease of a new parking deck adjacent to the Headquarters facility. Due to our continuing involvement with the financing during construction of the Headquarters facility and the parking deck, we recorded a non-cash increase to fixed assets and financing liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as costs were incurred during the construction period. Construction of the Headquarters facility and parking deck was substantially completed during the second quarter of 2013 and the first payments were made under the leases. The total financing liability of approximately $150 million, including capitalized interest, has been recorded in Long Term Debt and Capital Leases at June 30, 2013.
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
We utilize derivative financial instrument contracts and nonderivative instruments to manage interest rate, foreign exchange and commodity price risks. We have established a control environment that includes policies and procedures for risk assessment and the approval, reporting and monitoring of derivative financial instrument activities. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Foreign Currency Contracts
We will enter into foreign currency contracts in order to manage the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates on our consolidated results of operations and future foreign currency-denominated cash flows. These contracts reduce exposure to currency movements affecting existing foreign currency-denominated assets, liabilities, firm commitments and forecasted transactions resulting primarily from trade purchases and sales, equipment acquisitions, intercompany loans and royalty agreements. Contracts hedging short term trade receivables and payables normally have no hedging designation.

The counterparties to our foreign currency contracts were considered by us to be substantial and creditworthy financial institutions that are recognized market makers at the time we entered into those contracts. We seek to control our credit exposure to these counterparties by diversifying across multiple counterparties, by setting counterparty credit limits based on long term credit ratings and other indicators of counterparty credit risk such as credit default swap spreads, and by monitoring the financial strength of these counterparties on a regular basis. We also enter into master netting agreements with counterparties when possible. By controlling and monitoring exposure to counterparties in this manner, we believe that we effectively manage the risk of loss due to nonperformance by a counterparty. However, the inability of a counterparty to fulfill its contractual obligations to us could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial position or results of operations in the period in which it occurs.

During the first quarter of 2013, we made $34 million of required contributions and $834 million of discretionary contributions to fully fund our frozen U.S. pension plans. Following these contributions, the Company changed its target asset allocation for these plans to a portfolio of substantially all fixed income securities designed to offset the future impact of discount rate movements on the plans' funded status. As a result of the asset allocation change, we were required to remeasure the benefit obligations and assets of the affected plans at February 28, 2013, which resulted in a first quarter reduction to net actuarial losses included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss of $93 million. The weighted average discount rate used to measure the benefit obligations of the frozen U.S. pension plans at February 28, 2013 was 3.82% as compared to 3.61% at December 31, 2012. As a result of the change in target asset allocation for the frozen U.S. pension plans, the expected long term return on plan assets for these plans is 4.75% as of March 1, 2013. At February 28, 2013, these frozen U.S. pension plans had assets of $2,072 million.
In addition to the $834 million of discretionary contributions to our frozen U.S. pension plans in the first quarter of 2013, we expect to contribute approximately $275 million to $325 million to our funded U.S. and non-U.S. pension plans in 2013. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we contributed $26 million and $56 million, respectively, to our non-U.S. plans and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we contributed $50 million and $918 million, respectively, to our U.S. plans.
The expense recognized for our contributions to defined contribution savings plans for both the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $23 million, and was $49 million and $50 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
We provide certain U.S. employees and employees at certain non-U.S. subsidiaries with health care benefits or life insurance benefits upon retirement. Postretirement benefit (credit) cost for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $(2) million and $0 million, respectively, and $(4) million and $3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

During the third quarter of 2012, we announced changes to our U.S. and Canadian salaried other postretirement benefit plans, effective January 1, 2013. The changes consisted primarily of eliminating coverage for participants who are or become at least age 65 and eligible for government subsidized programs and reduced our U.S. other postretirement benefit obligation by $56 million and our Canadian other postretirement benefit obligation by $18 million.

NOTE 10. STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS
Our Board of Directors granted 2.1 million stock options and 0.2 million performance share units during the six months ended June 30, 2013 under our stock compensation plans. The weighted average exercise price per share and weighted average fair value per share of the stock option grants during the six months ended June 30, 2013 were $13.01 and $5.97, respectively. We estimated the fair value of the stock options using the following assumptions in our Black-Scholes model:
Expected term: 6.25 years
Interest rate: 1.04%
Volatility: 46.87%
Dividend yield: Nil
We measure the fair value of grants of performance share units based primarily on the closing market price of a share of our common stock on the date of the grant, modified as appropriate to take into account the features of such grants. The weighted average fair value per share was $13.65 for grants made during the six months ended June 30, 2013.
We recognized stock-based compensation expense of $6 million and $8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. At June 30, 2013, unearned compensation cost related to the unvested portion of all stock-based awards was approximately $30 million and is expected to be recognized over the remaining vesting period of the respective grants, through June 2017. We recognized stock-based compensation expense of $4 million and $5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.
Stock based awards are made pursuant to stock compensation plans that are approved by our shareholders. The 2013 Performance Plan was adopted by our shareholders on April 15, 2013 and will expire on April 14, 2023 unless earlier terminated. The 2013 Performance Plan replaced the 2008 Performance Plan, which was terminated on April 15, 2013, except with respect to outstanding awards.

NOTE 11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
Environmental Matters
We have recorded liabilities totaling $44 million and $43 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, for anticipated costs related to various environmental matters, primarily the remediation of numerous waste disposal sites and certain properties sold by us. Of these amounts, $9 million were included in Other Current Liabilities at both June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The costs include legal and consulting fees, site studies, the design and implementation of remediation plans, post-remediation monitoring and related activities, and will be paid over several years. The amount of our ultimate liability in respect of these matters may be affected by several uncertainties, primarily the ultimate cost of required remediation and the extent to which other responsible parties contribute. We have limited potential insurance coverage for future environmental claims.
Since many of the remediation activities related to environmental matters vary substantially in duration and cost from site to site and the associated costs for each vary depending on the mix of unique site characteristics, in some cases we cannot reasonably estimate a range of possible losses. Although it is not possible to estimate with certainty the outcome of all of our environmental matters, management believes that potential losses in excess of current reserves for environmental matters, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
Workers’ Compensation
We have recorded liabilities, on a discounted basis, totaling $310 million and $307 million for anticipated costs related to workers’ compensation at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Of these amounts, $77 million and $57 million were included in Current Liabilities as part of Compensation and Benefits at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The costs include an estimate of expected settlements on pending claims, defense costs and a provision for claims incurred but not reported. These estimates are based on our assessment of potential liability using an analysis of available information with respect to pending claims, historical experience, and current cost trends. The amount of our ultimate liability in respect of these matters may differ from these estimates. We periodically, and at least annually, update our loss development factors based on actuarial analyses. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the liability was discounted using a risk-free rate of return. At June 30, 2013, we estimate that it is reasonably possible that the liability could exceed our recorded amounts by approximately $40 million.

General and Product Liability and Other Litigation
We have recorded liabilities totaling $311 million and $298 million, including related legal fees expected to be incurred, for potential product liability and other tort claims, including asbestos claims, presently asserted against us at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Of these amounts, $44 million and $40 million were included in Other Current Liabilities at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The amounts recorded were estimated based on an assessment of potential liability using an analysis of available information with respect to pending claims, historical experience and, where available, recent and current trends. Based upon that assessment, at June 30, 2013, we do not believe that estimated reasonably possible losses associated with general and product liability claims in excess of the amounts recorded will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, cash flows or results of operations. However, the amount of our ultimate liability in respect of these matters may differ from these estimates.
Asbestos. We are a defendant in numerous lawsuits alleging various asbestos-related personal injuries purported to result from alleged exposure to asbestos in certain products manufactured by us or present in certain of our facilities. Typically, these lawsuits have been brought against multiple defendants in state and Federal courts. To date, we have disposed of approximately 106,400 claims by defending and obtaining the dismissal thereof or by entering into a settlement. The sum of our accrued asbestos-related liability and gross payments to date, including legal costs, by us and our insurers totaled approximately $418 million through June 30, 2013 and $407 million through December 31, 2012.
A summary of recent approximate asbestos claims activity follows. Because claims are often filed and disposed of by dismissal or settlement in large numbers, the amount and timing of settlements and the number of open claims during a particular period can fluctuate significantly.

Represents cash payments made during the period by us and our insurers on asbestos litigation defense and claim resolution.
We periodically, and at least annually, review our existing reserves for pending claims, including a reasonable estimate of the liability associated with unasserted asbestos claims, and estimate our receivables from probable insurance recoveries. We had recorded gross liabilities for both asserted and unasserted claims, inclusive of defense costs, totaling $140 million and $139 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
We recorded a receivable related to asbestos claims of $74 million and $73 million as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. We expect that approximately 50% of asbestos claim related losses will be recoverable through insurance during the ten-year period covered by the estimated liability. Of these amounts, $11 million and $10 million was included in Current Assets as part of Accounts Receivable at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The recorded receivable consists of an amount we expect to collect under coverage-in-place agreements with certain primary carriers as well as an amount we believe is probable of recovery from certain of our excess coverage insurance carriers.
We believe that, at June 30, 2013, we had approximately $160 million in limits of excess level policies potentially applicable to indemnity and defense costs for asbestos products claims. We also had coverage under certain primary policies for indemnity and defense costs for asbestos products claims under remaining aggregate limits, as well as coverage for indemnity and defense costs for asbestos premises claims on a per occurrence basis pursuant to a coverage-in-place agreement.
With respect to both asserted and unasserted claims, it is reasonably possible that we may incur a material amount of cost in excess of the current reserve; however, such amounts cannot be reasonably estimated. Coverage under insurance policies is subject to varying characteristics of asbestos claims including, but not limited to, the type of claim (premise vs. product exposure), alleged date of first exposure to our products or premises and disease alleged. Depending upon the nature of these characteristics, as well as the resolution of certain legal issues, some portion of the insurance may not be accessible by us.

Other Actions. We are currently a party to various claims and legal proceedings in addition to those noted above. If management believes that a loss arising from these matters is probable and can reasonably be estimated, we record the amount of the loss, or the minimum estimated liability when the loss is estimated using a range, and no point within the range is more probable than another. As additional information becomes available, any potential liability related to these matters is assessed and the estimates are revised, if necessary. Based on currently available information, management believes that the ultimate outcome of these matters, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position or overall trends in results of operations.
Our recorded liabilities and estimates of reasonably possible losses for the contingent liabilities described above are based on our assessment of potential liability using the information available to us at the time and, where applicable, any past experience and recent and current trends with respect to similar matters. Our contingent liabilities are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable judicial or administrative decisions could occur which we did not anticipate. Such an unfavorable decision could include monetary damages, fines or other penalties or an injunction prohibiting us from taking certain actions or selling certain products. If such an unfavorable decision were to occur, it could result in a material adverse impact on our financial position and results of operations in the period in which the decision occurs, or in future periods.
Income Tax and Other Tax Matters
The calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations. We recognize liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on our estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. If we ultimately determine that payment of these amounts is unnecessary, we reverse the liability and recognize a tax benefit during the period in which we determine that the liability is no longer necessary. We also recognize income tax benefits to the extent that it is more likely than not that our positions will be sustained when challenged by the taxing authorities. We derecognize income tax benefits when based on new information we determine that it is no longer more likely than not that our position will be sustained. To the extent we prevail in matters for which liabilities have been established, or determine we need to derecognize tax benefits recorded in prior periods, our results of operations and effective tax rate in a given period could be materially affected. An unfavorable tax settlement would require use of our cash, and lead to recognition of expense to the extent the settlement amount exceeds recorded liabilities and, in the case of an income tax settlement, result in an increase in our effective tax rate in the period of resolution. A favorable tax settlement would be recognized as a reduction of expense to the extent the settlement amount is lower than recorded liabilities and, in the case of an income tax settlement, would result in a reduction in our effective tax rate in the period of resolution.
While the Company applies consistent transfer pricing policies and practices globally, supports transfer prices through economic studies, seeks advance pricing agreements and joint audits to the extent possible and believes its transfer prices to be appropriate, such transfer prices, and related interpretations of tax laws, are occasionally challenged by various taxing authorities globally. We have received various tax assessments challenging our interpretations of applicable tax laws in various jurisdictions. Although we believe we have complied with applicable tax laws, have strong positions and defenses and have historically been successful in defending such claims, our results of operations could be materially adversely affected in the case we are unsuccessful in the defense of existing or future claims.
In September 2011, the State of Sao Paulo, Brazil issued an assessment to us for allegedly improperly taking tax credits for value-added taxes paid to a supplier of natural rubber during the period from January 2006 to August 2008. The assessment, including interest and penalties, totals 92 million Brazilian real (approximately $41 million). We have filed a response contesting this assessment and are defending the matter. In the event we are unsuccessful in defending the assessment, our results of operations could be materially affected.
We also received assessments from the State of Sao Paulo, Brazil in December 2010 for allegedly improperly taking tax credits for value-added taxes paid to other suppliers of natural rubber during the period from January 2006 to October 2009. These assessments, including interest and penalties, totaled 88 million Brazilian real (approximately $39 million). In the second quarter of 2013, we paid 51 million Brazilian real ($23 million) pursuant to a special payment program offered by the State of Sao Paulo in satisfaction of the December 2010 assessments, which approximated the previously recorded reserve.
Guarantees
We have off-balance sheet financial guarantees and other commitments totaling approximately $21 million at June 30, 2013, compared to $45 million at December 31, 2012, primarily related to our obligations in connection with the financing of the construction of our new Global and North America Headquarters facility. In addition, we will from time to time issue guarantees to financial institutions or other entities on behalf of certain of our affiliates, lessors or customers. Normally there is no separate premium received by us as consideration for the issuance of guarantees. We also generally do not require collateral in connection with the issuance of these guarantees. If our performance under these guarantees is triggered by non-payment or another specified

event, we would be obligated to make payment to the financial institution or the other entity, and would typically have recourse to the affiliate, lessor or customer. The guarantees expire at various times through 2023. We are unable to estimate the extent to which our affiliates’, lessors’ or customers’ assets would be adequate to recover any payments made by us under the related guarantees.

NOTE 12. MANDATORY CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK
At June 30, 2013, 10,000,000 shares of our 5.875% mandatory convertible preferred stock, without par value, were outstanding. Quarterly dividends on each share of the mandatory convertible preferred stock will accrue at a rate of 5.875% per year on the initial liquidation preference of $50.00 per share. Dividends will accrue and accumulate from the date of issuance and, to the extent that we are legally permitted to pay a dividend and the Board of Directors declares a dividend payable, we will pay dividends in cash on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing on July 1, 2011 and ending on April 1, 2014.
Unless converted earlier, each share of the mandatory convertible preferred stock will automatically convert on April 1, 2014 into between 2.7454 and 3.4317 shares of common stock, depending on the market value of our common stock for the 20 consecutive trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to April 1, 2014, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. At any time prior to April 1, 2014, holders may elect to convert shares of the mandatory convertible preferred stock at the minimum conversion rate of 2.7454 shares of common stock, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.
In the first six months of 2013, we paid cash dividends of $15 million on our mandatory convertible preferred stock. On June 3, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors (or a duly authorized committee thereof) declared cash dividends of $0.7344 per share of mandatory convertible preferred stock or $7 million in the aggregate. The dividend was paid on July 1, 2013 to stockholders of record as of the close of business of June 14, 2013.

THE GOODYEAR TIRE & RUBBER COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)


NOTE 15. CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Certain of our subsidiaries have guaranteed our obligations under the $1.0 billion outstanding principal amount of 8.25% senior notes due 2020, the $282 million outstanding principal amount of 8.75% notes due 2020, the $900 million outstanding principal amount of 6.5% senior notes due 2021, and the $700 million outstanding principal amount of 7% senior notes due 2022 (collectively, the “notes”). The following presents the condensed consolidating financial information separately for:
(i)
The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company (the “Parent Company”), the issuer of the guaranteed obligations;
(ii)
Guarantor Subsidiaries, on a combined basis, as specified in the indentures related to Goodyear’s obligations under the notes;
(iii)
Non-guarantor Subsidiaries, on a combined basis;
(iv)
Consolidating entries and eliminations representing adjustments to (a) eliminate intercompany transactions between the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-guarantor Subsidiaries, (b) eliminate the investments in our subsidiaries, and (c) record consolidating entries; and
(v)
The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company and Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
Each guarantor subsidiary is 100% owned by the Parent Company at the date of each balance sheet presented. The notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by each guarantor subsidiary. The guarantees of the guarantor subsidiaries are subject to release in limited circumstances only upon the occurrence of certain customary conditions. Each entity in the consolidating financial information follows the same accounting policies as described in the consolidated financial statements, except for the use by the Parent Company and guarantor subsidiaries of the equity method of accounting to reflect ownership interests in subsidiaries which are eliminated upon consolidation. Changes in intercompany receivables and payables related to operations, such as intercompany sales or services charges, are included in cash flows from operating activities. Intercompany transactions reported as investing or financing activities include the sale of the capital stock of various subsidiaries, loans and other capital transactions between members of the consolidated group.
Certain non-guarantor subsidiaries of the Parent Company are limited in their ability to remit funds to it by means of dividends, advances or loans due to required foreign government and/or currency exchange board approvals or limitations in credit agreements or other debt instruments of those subsidiaries.
In 2013, we revised the presentation of eliminations of certain intercompany transactions solely between Non-guarantor Subsidiaries within the condensed consolidating balance sheet as of December 31, 2012 and within the consolidating statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. The revision did not impact the presentation of amounts in previously issued consolidating financial statements for the Parent Company or Guarantor Subsidiaries columns, nor did it impact amounts previously reported in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations or Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Certain eliminations solely between Non-guarantor Subsidiaries that were previously presented within the Consolidating entries and eliminations column are now presented within the Non-guarantor Subsidiaries column. Under the prior presentation, the Non-guarantor Subsidiaries column in the consolidating statement of operations was $2,060 million and $4,657 million higher for both net sales and cost of goods sold and was $38 million and $75 million higher for both interest expense and other (income) expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, and the Non-guarantor Subsidiaries column in the condensed consolidating balance sheet for the period ended December 31, 2012 was $4,576 million higher for both investments in subsidiaries and Goodyear shareholders' equity, with corresponding offsetting adjustments presented on the same line items in the Consolidating entries and eliminations column. We do not consider these changes in presentation to be material to any previously issued financial statements as the purpose of this footnote is to provide our noteholders with visibility into the entities that provide guarantees in support of the notes, which is disclosed in the Parent Company and Guarantor Subsidiaries columns and are not affected by the revisions described above.
Additionally, to conform to revisions in presentation made in the fourth quarter of 2012, certain intercompany loans for the six months ended June 30, 2012, previously reported as cash flows from operating activities in the Parent Company and Non-guarantor Subsidiaries columns within the condensed consolidating statement of cash flows have been revised to be reported as investing and financing activities. Under the revised presentation, operating, investing and financing cash flows for the Parent Company increased (decreased) by $(150) million, $(36) million and $186 million, respectively; operating, investing and financing cash flows for Non-guarantor Subsidiaries increased (decreased) by $62 million, $(112) million and $50 million, respectively; and amounts presented in the eliminations column for operating, investing and financing cash flows increased (decreased) by $88 million, $148 million and $(236) million, respectively. This revision did not impact amounts previously reported in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
     All per share amounts are diluted and refer to Goodyear net income available to common shareholders.
OVERVIEW
The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of tires, with one of the most recognizable brand names in the world and operations in most regions of the world. We have a broad global footprint with 52 manufacturing facilities in 22 countries, including the United States. We operate our business through four operating segments representing our regional tire businesses: North America; Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”); Latin America; and Asia Pacific.
In the second quarter of 2013, we continued to experience weak, but stabilizing, industry conditions in developed markets as the economic recovery continued to be impacted by high levels of unemployment. Our tire unit shipments in the second quarter of 2013 increased 0.7% compared to the second quarter of 2012, with increases occurring in EMEA, Latin America and Asia Pacific.
We increased our total segment operating income and our segment operating income in each of our operating segments in the second quarter of 2013 compared to the second quarter of 2012. In the second quarter of 2013, we realized approximately $106 million of cost savings, including raw materials cost saving measures of approximately $53 million.
Net sales were $4,894 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to $5,150 million in the second quarter of 2012. Net sales were $9,747 million in the first six months of 2013, compared to $10,683 million in the first six months of 2012. Net sales decreased for the quarter and the first six months of 2013 due to lower sales in other tire-related businesses, primarily third-party sales of chemical products in North America, a decline in price and product mix, primarily in North America, and unfavorable foreign currency translation, primarily in Latin America. In addition, as a result of lower volumes during the first quarter of 2013, the first six months of 2013 was negatively impacted by lower tire volumes.
In the second quarter of 2013, Goodyear net income was $188 million, compared to $92 million in the second quarter of 2012. In the second quarter of 2013, Goodyear net income available to common shareholders was $181 million, or $0.67 per share, compared to $85 million, or $0.33 per share, in the second quarter of 2012. Our total segment operating income for the second quarter of 2013 was $428 million, compared to $336 million in the second quarter of 2012. The $92 million increase in segment operating income was due primarily to a decline in raw material costs of $230 million, which more than offset the effect of lower price and product mix of $85 million, and higher conversion costs of $61 million. See "Results of Operations — Segment Information” for additional information.
In the first six months of 2013, Goodyear net income was $221 million, compared to $88 million in the first six months of 2012. In the first six months of 2013, Goodyear net income available to common shareholders was $206 million, or $0.79 per share, compared to $73 million, or $0.30 per share, in the first six months of 2012. Our total segment operating income for the first six months of 2013 was $730 million, compared to segment operating income of $628 million in the first six months of 2012. The $102 million increase in segment operating income was due primarily to a decline in raw material costs of $517 million, which more than offset the effect of lower price and product mix of $157 million, higher conversion costs of $174 million and lower sales volume of $49 million. See "Results of Operations — Segment Information” for additional information.
At June 30, 2013, we had $2,564 million in Cash and cash equivalents as well as $2,421 million of unused availability under our various credit agreements, compared to $2,281 million and $2,949 million, respectively, at December 31, 2012. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $283 million from December 31, 2012 due primarily to borrowings in excess of cash needs for pension funding, working capital and capital expenditures. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" for additional information.
Our expectation for growth in the global tire industry is unchanged from the first quarter of 2013. For the full year of 2013 in North America, we continue to expect consumer replacement to be flat, consumer original equipment to be up approximately 5%, and commercial replacement and original equipment to be flat. For the full year in Europe, we continue to expect consumer replacement to be flat, consumer original equipment to be down approximately 5%, commercial replacement to be up approximately 5%, and commercial original equipment to be flat to up 5%. We also continue to expect that our full-year tire unit volume for 2013 will be similar to 2012 as a result of weak, but stabilizing, industry conditions, with unit volume in the second half of 2013 exceeding the second half of 2012.
For the full year of 2013, we continue to expect our raw material costs will be lower than 2012 and to realize a net benefit from raw material costs and price and product mix. However, natural and synthetic rubber prices and other commodity prices have experienced significant volatility, and this estimate could change significantly based on fluctuations in the cost of these and other key raw materials. In order to mitigate some of the impact of raw material costs, we are continuing to focus on price and product mix, to substitute lower cost materials where possible and to work to identify additional substitution opportunities, to reduce the amount of material required in each tire, and to pursue alternative raw materials.

- 33-


We continue to expect to incur incremental unabsorbed fixed costs of approximately $25 million to $50 million and cost savings to more than offset general inflation in 2013.
On July 27, 2013, we reached a tentative agreement with the United Steelworkers on a new master contract covering about 8,000 employees at six of our U.S. manufacturing facilities. The tentative agreement remains subject to ratification by the affected employees.
See “Forward-Looking Information — Safe Harbor Statement” for a discussion of our use of forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
CONSOLIDATED
Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
Net sales in the second quarter of 2013 were $4,894 million, decreasing $256 million, or 5.0%, from $5,150 million in the second quarter of 2012. Goodyear net income was $188 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to $92 million in the second quarter of 2012. Goodyear net income available to common shareholders was $181 million, or $0.67 per share, in the second quarter of 2013, compared to $85 million, or $0.33 per share, in the second quarter of 2012.
Net sales decreased in the second quarter of 2013, due primarily to lower sales in other tire-related businesses of $131 million, primarily in North America due to lower sales of chemical products to third parties, a decline in price and product mix of $75 million, primarily in North America, and unfavorable foreign currency translation of $60 million. These declines were partially offset by higher tire volume of $35 million. Consumer and commercial net sales in the second quarter of 2013 were $2,643 million and $1,023 million, respectively. Consumer and commercial net sales in the second quarter of 2012 were $2,709 million and $1,038 million, respectively.
Worldwide tire unit sales in the second quarter of 2013 were 39.5 million units, increasing 0.3 million units, or 0.7%, from 39.2 million units in the second quarter of 2012. Replacement tire volume decreased 0.1 million units, or 0.4%. Original equipment ("OE") tire volume increased 0.4 million units, or 3.1%, primarily in EMEA. Consumer and commercial tire unit sales in the second quarter of 2013 were 35.7 million and 3.2 million, respectively. Consumer and commercial tire unit sales in the second quarter of 2012 were 35.5 million and 3.2 million, respectively.
Cost of goods sold (“CGS”) in the second quarter of 2013 was $3,846 million, decreasing $295 million, or 7.1%, from $4,141 million in the second quarter of 2012. CGS decreased due to lower raw material costs of $230 million, lower costs in other tire-related businesses of $124 million, and favorable foreign currency translation of $36 million. These decreases were partially offset by increased conversion costs of $61 million, higher volume of $24 million, primarily in EMEA and Latin America, and increases in product mix-related manufacturing cost of $10 million. Conversion costs were negatively impacted by higher under-absorbed fixed overhead costs of approximately $47 million due to lower production volume in North America and inflationary cost increases. The second quarter of 2013 also included accelerated depreciation of $5 million ($4 million after-tax), related to the announced plan to close one of our manufacturing facilities in Amiens, France, compared to $3 million ($2 million after-tax) in the 2012 period, primarily related to the closure of our Dalian, China manufacturing facility. CGS was 78.6% of sales in the second quarter of 2013 compared to 80.4% in the second quarter of 2012.
Selling, administrative and general expense (“SAG”) in the second quarter of 2013 was $691 million, decreasing $6 million, or 0.9%, from $697 million in the second quarter of 2012. The decrease in SAG was due primarily to lower advertising and marketing expenses of $17 million and favorable foreign currency translation of $12 million, partially offset by higher wages and benefits of $14 million, driven by higher incentive compensation expense, and other corporate costs of $9 million. SAG was 14.1% of sales in the second quarter of 2013, compared to 13.5% in the second quarter of 2012. SAG also included savings from rationalization plans of $9 million.
We recorded net rationalization charges of $13 million ($9 million after-tax) in the second quarter of 2013. Rationalization actions initiated in the second quarter of 2013 primarily consisted of manufacturing reductions in EMEA and Latin America and SAG headcount reductions in Asia Pacific and EMEA. We recorded net rationalization charges of $26 million in the second quarter of 2012 ($23 million after-tax), primarily related to SAG headcount reductions in EMEA and retail store closings in Asia Pacific.
Interest expense in the second quarter of 2013 was $102 million, increasing $19 million, or 22.9%, from $83 million in the second quarter of 2012. Interest expense increased due to higher average debt balances of $6,555 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $5,651 million in the second quarter of 2012 and higher average interest rates of 6.22% in the second quarter of 2013 compared to 5.88% in the second quarter of 2012.
Other (Income) Expense in the second quarter of 2013 was $14 million of income, compared to $37 million of expense in the second quarter of 2012. Royalty income in the second quarter of 2013 was $19 million, compared to royalty income of $10 million in the second quarter of 2012. Royalty income in the second quarter of 2013 included a one-time royalty of $8 million related to our chemical operations. Financing fees were $14 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $34 million in the second quarter of 2012. Financing fees in the second quarter of 2012 included $24 million ($24 million after-tax) for debt issuance costs, primarily related to the amendment and restatement of our U.S. second lien term loan facility. Net gains on asset sales were $5 million ($4 million after-tax) in the second quarter of 2013 compared to net gains on asset sales of $13 million ($10 million after-tax) in the second quarter of 2012. Net gains on asset sales in the second quarter of 2013 primarily related to the transfer of property in Dalian, China to the Chinese government and the sale of property in North America. Net gains on asset sales in the second quarter of 2012 included a gain on the sale of a minority interest in a retail business in EMEA and the sale of certain assets related to our bias tire business in Latin America. Also included in Other (Income) Expense was a charge relating to labor claims in EMEA

of $5 million ($5 million after-tax) in the second quarter of 2013 compared to a charge of $20 million ($20 million after-tax) in the second quarter of 2012.
Tax expense in the second quarter of 2013 was $63 million on income before income taxes of $256 million. Income tax expense in the second quarter of 2013 was unfavorably impacted by $8 million ($7 million after minority interest) comprised of a $5 million adjustment related to prior years and a $3 million settlement of a foreign tax audit. In addition to the discrete items noted above, in 2013 the difference between our effective tax rate and the U.S. statutory tax rate was primarily attributable to improved U.S. profitability while continuing to maintain a full valuation allowance against our net Federal and State deferred tax assets. In the second quarter of 2012, we recorded tax expense of $63 million on income before income taxes of $166 million. Income tax expense in the second quarter of 2012 was unfavorably impacted by $3 million ($2 million after minority interest) due to various discrete items.
Minority shareholders’ net income in the second quarter of 2013 was $5 million, compared to $11 million in 2012. The decrease was due primarily to decreased earnings in our joint venture in Europe.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
Net sales in the first six months of 2013 were $9,747 million, decreasing $936 million, or 8.8%, from $10,683 million in the first six months of 2012. Goodyear net income was $221 million in the first six months of 2013, compared to $88 million in the first six months of 2012. Goodyear net income available to common shareholders was $206 million, or $0.79 per share, in the first six months of 2013, compared to $73 million, or $0.30 per share, in the first six months of 2012.
Net sales decreased in the first six months of 2013 due to lower tire volume of $329 million, primarily in EMEA, lower sales in other tire-related businesses of $309 million, primarily due to lower sales of chemical products in North America, unfavorable foreign currency translation of $175 million, primarily in Latin America, and lower price and product mix of $81 million, primarily in North America. Consumer and commercial net sales in the first six months of 2013 were $5,323 million and $2,002 million, respectively. Consumer and commercial net sales in the first six months of 2012 were $5,708 million and $2,128 million, respectively.
Worldwide tire unit sales in the first six months of 2013 were 79.0 million units, decreasing 3.2 million units, or 3.9%, from 82.2 million units in the first six months of 2012. Replacement tire volume decreased 3.1 million units, or 5.4%, primarily due to weak industry volumes in EMEA and North America. OE tire volume decreased 0.1 million units, or 0.5%. Consumer and commercial tire unit sales in the first six months of 2013 were 71.7 million and 6.2 million, respectively. Consumer and commercial tire unit sales in the first six months of 2012 were 74.5 million and 6.5 million, respectively.
Cost of goods sold in the first six months of 2013 was $7,786 million, decreasing $962 million, or 11.0%, from $8,748 million in the first six months of 2012. CGS decreased due to lower raw material costs of $517 million, lower tire volume of $280 million, lower costs in other tire-related businesses of $278 million, and favorable foreign currency translation of $122 million. These decreases were partially offset by increased conversion costs of $174 million and product mix-related manufacturing cost increases of $76 million. Conversion costs were negatively impacted by higher under-absorbed fixed overhead costs of approximately $125 million due to lower production volume in North America and EMEA and inflationary cost increases. CGS in the first six months of 2013 also included accelerated depreciation of $10 million ($7 million after-tax) related to the announced plan to close one of our manufacturing facilities in Amiens, France, compared to $6 million ($4 million after-tax) in the 2012 period, primarily related to the closure of our Dalian, China manufacturing facility. CGS was 79.9% of sales in the first six months of 2013, compared to 81.9% in the first six months of 2012.
Selling, administrative and general expense in the first six months of 2013 was $1,336 million, decreasing $23 million, or 1.7%, from $1,359 million in the first six months of 2012. The decrease in SAG was due primarily to lower advertising and marketing expense of $26 million and favorable foreign currency translation of $24 million, partially offset by higher wages and benefits of $20 million, driven by higher incentive compensation expense, and other corporate costs of $7 million. SAG was 13.7% of sales in the first six months of 2013, compared to 12.7% in the first six months of 2012. SAG also included savings from rationalization plans of $16 million.
We recorded net rationalization charges of $20 million ($15 million after-tax) related to current and prior year plans in the first six months of 2013. Rationalization actions initiated in 2013 primarily consisted of manufacturing reductions in EMEA and Latin America and SAG headcount reductions in EMEA and Asia Pacific. We recorded net rationalization charges of $41 million ($35 million after-tax) in the first six months of 2012, which included $17 million of charges related to the closure of our Union City, Tennessee manufacturing facility (“Union City”). Rationalization actions initiated in the first six months of 2012 primarily consisted of SAG headcount reductions in EMEA and retail store closings in Asia Pacific.
Upon completion of the 2013 plans, we estimate that annual operating costs will be reduced by approximately $11 million ($5 million in CGS and $6 million in SAG). For further information, refer to the Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 2, Costs Associated with Rationalization Programs.

Interest expense in the first six months of 2013 was $187 million, increasing $3 million, or 1.6%, from $184 million in the first six months of 2012. Interest expense in the first six months of 2012 included an adjustment of $13 million of expense to correct capitalized interest recorded in prior periods. Higher average debt balances of $6,194 million in the first six months of 2013 compared to $5,533 million in the first six months of 2012 more than offset a decrease in average interest rates to 6.04% in the first six months of 2013 from 6.18% in the first six months of 2012.
Other (Income) Expense in the first six months of 2013 was $112 million of expense, compared to $129 million of expense in the first six months of 2012. Net foreign currency exchange losses in 2013 included a net loss of $115 million ($92 million after-tax) resulting from the devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar fuerte against the U.S. dollar. Effective February 13, 2013, Venezuela's official exchange rate changed from 4.3 to 6.3 bolivares fuertes to the U.S. dollar for substantially all goods. For further discussion on Venezuela, refer to "Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources." Royalty income in the first six months of 2013 was $29 million, compared to royalty income of $19 million in the first six months of 2012. Royalty income in the first six months of 2013 included a one-time royalty of $8 million related to chemical operations. Financing fees were $27 million in the first six months of 2013 compared to $129 million in the first six months of 2012. Financing fees for the first six months of 2012 included $86 million ($86 million after-tax) in financing fees related to the redemption of $650 million in aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 10.5% senior notes due 2016, of which $59 million was a cash premium paid on the redemption and $27 million related to the write-off of deferred financing fees and unamortized discount, and $24 million ($24 million after-tax) of debt issuance costs, primarily related to the amendment and restatement of our U.S. second lien term loan facility. Net gains on asset sales were $3 million ($2 million after-tax) in the first six months of 2013 compared to net gains on asset sales of $17 million ($13 million after-tax) in the 2012 period. Net gains on asset sales in 2013 related primarily to the transfer of property in Dalian, China to the Chinese government and the sale of property in North America. Net gains on asset sales in 2012 included gains on the sale of a minority interest in a retail business in EMEA and the sale of certain assets related to our bias tire business in Latin America. Also included in Other (Income) Expense was a charge relating to labor claims in EMEA of $5 million ($5 million after-tax) in the first six months of 2013 compared to a charge of $20 million ($20 million after-tax) in the first six months of 2012.
Tax expense in the first six months of 2013 was $82 million on income before income taxes of $306 million. Income tax expense was favorably impacted by $4 million ($5 million after minority interest) due primarily to the enactment of tax law changes. In the first six months of 2012, we recorded tax expense of $111 million on income before income taxes of $222 million. In the first six months of 2012, income tax expense was unfavorably impacted by $6 million ($5 million after minority interest) due primarily to the settlement of prior tax years. We record taxes based on overall estimated annual effective tax rates. In addition to the discrete items noted above, in 2013 the difference between our effective tax rate and the U.S. statutory tax rate was primarily attributable to improved U.S. profitability while continuing to maintain a full valuation allowance against our net Federal and State deferred tax assets, and in 2012 the difference between our effective tax rate and the U.S. statutory tax rate was primarily attributable to continuing to maintain a full valuation allowance against certain foreign jurisdictions' deferred tax assets.
Our losses in various taxing jurisdictions in recent periods represented sufficient negative evidence to require us to maintain a full valuation allowance against certain of our net deferred tax assets. In certain foreign locations, it is reasonably possible that sufficient positive evidence required to release all or a portion of, these valuation allowances within the next 12 months will exist. However, we do not expect these possible one-time tax benefits to have a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations. For further information, refer to the Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 4, Income Taxes.
Minority shareholders’ net income in the first six months of 2013 was $3 million, compared to net income of $23 million in 2012. The decrease was due primarily to decreased earnings in our joint venture in Europe.

SEGMENT INFORMATION
Segment information reflects our strategic business units (“SBUs”), which are organized to meet customer requirements and global competition and are segmented on a regional basis.
Results of operations are measured based on net sales to unaffiliated customers and segment operating income. Each segment exports tires to other segments. The financial results of each segment exclude sales of tires exported to other segments, but include operating income derived from such transactions. Segment operating income is computed as follows: Net Sales less CGS (excluding asset write-off and accelerated depreciation charges) and SAG (including certain allocated corporate administrative expenses). Segment operating income also includes certain royalties and equity in earnings of most affiliates. Segment operating income does not include net rationalization charges (credits), asset sales and certain other items.
Total segment operating income in the second quarter of 2013 was $428 million, increasing $92 million from $336 million in the second quarter of 2012. Total segment operating margin (segment operating income divided by segment sales) in the second quarter of 2013 was 8.7%, compared to 6.5% in the second quarter of 2012. Total segment operating income in the first six months of 2013 was $730 million, increasing $102 million from $628 million in the first six months of 2012. Total segment operating margin in the first six months of 2013 was 7.5%, compared to 5.9% in the first six months of 2012.
Management believes that total segment operating income is useful because it represents the aggregate value of income created by our SBUs and excludes items not directly related to the SBUs for performance evaluation purposes. Total segment operating income is the sum of the individual SBUs’ segment operating income. Refer to the Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 6, Business Segments, for further information and for a reconciliation of total segment operating income to Income before Income Taxes.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
North America unit sales in the second quarter of 2013 decreased 0.6 million units, or 3.4%, to 14.8 million units. The decrease was due to a reduction in replacement tire volume of 0.6 million units, or 5.5%, primarily in our consumer business, reflecting lower industry demand and decreased sales of lower end consumer products. OE tire volume remained flat.
Net sales in the second quarter of 2013 were $2,201 million, decreasing $250 million, or 10.2%, from $2,451 million in the second quarter of 2012. The decrease was due primarily to lower sales in our other tire-related businesses of $116 million, driven by a decrease in the price and volume of third-party sales of chemical products. In addition, net sales decreased due to lower price and product mix of $75 million driven by the impact of lower raw material costs on pricing and lower tire volume of $57 million.
Operating income in the second quarter of 2013 was $204 million, increasing $16 million, or 8.5%, from $188 million in the second quarter of 2012. The increase in operating income was due primarily to a decline in raw material costs of $112 million, which more than offset the effect of lower price and product mix of $76 million. Operating income was positively impacted by lower SAG expenses of $10 million and higher profits in other tire-related businesses of $6 million, driven by an increase in royalty income from our chemical operations. These improvements were partially offset by increased conversion costs of $18 million, decreased volume of $10 million and higher transportation costs of $4 million. Higher conversion costs were due primarily to $40 million of increased under-absorbed overhead resulting from lower production volumes, partially offset by lower profit sharing of $13 million and pension expense of $13 million. Conversion costs and SAG expenses included net savings from rationalization plans of $7 million and $4 million, respectively.
Operating income in the second quarter of 2013 excluded net rationalization charges of $5 million and net gains on asset sales of $3 million. Operating income in the second quarter of 2012 excluded net rationalization charges of $13 million, primarily related to costs associated with the closure of Union City, and net gains on asset sales of $2 million.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
North America unit sales in the first six months of 2013 decreased 1.6 million units, or 4.9%, to 29.6 million units. The decrease was due to a reduction in replacement tire volume of 1.6 million units, or 7.3%, primarily in our consumer business, reflecting lower industry demand and decreased sales of lower end consumer products. OE tire volume remained flat.
Net sales in the first six months of 2013 were $4,367 million, decreasing $581 million, or 11.7%, from $4,948 million in the first six months of 2012. The decrease was due to lower sales in our other tire-related businesses of $269 million, driven by a decrease in the price and volume of third-party sales of chemical products. In addition, net sales decreased due to lower tire volume of $162 million and lower price and product mix of $147 million driven by the impact of lower raw material costs on pricing.
Operating income in the first six months of 2013 was $331 million, increasing $63 million, or 23.5%, from $268 million in the first six months of 2012. The increase in operating income was due primarily to a decline in raw material costs of $275 million, which more than offset the effect of lower price and product mix of $124 million. Operating income was also positively impacted by lower SAG expenses of $13 million. These improvements were offset by increased conversion costs of $61 million, decreased volume of $23 million and decreases in our other tire-related businesses of $11 million. The decreased profitability of third-party sales of chemical products exceeded higher royalty income from chemical operations. Higher conversion costs were due primarily to $85 million of increased under-absorbed overhead, resulting from lower production volumes and inflationary cost increases, partially offset by lower profit sharing of $24 million and pension expense of $12 million. Conversion costs and SAG expenses each included net savings from rationalization plans of $8 million.
Operating income in the first six months of 2013 excluded net rationalization charges of $7 million and net gains on asset sales of $2 million. Operating income in the first six months of 2012 excluded net rationalization charges of $19 million, primarily related to the closure of Union City, and net gains on asset sales of $4 million.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
Europe, Middle East and Africa unit sales in the second quarter of 2013 increased 0.4 million units, or 2.5%, to 14.6 million units. Replacement tire volume increased 0.1 million units, or 0.6%, primarily in the commercial replacement business. OE tire volume increased 0.3 million units, or 7.3%, primarily in the consumer OE business. Unit volume reflects a general stabilization of industry volumes, at a low level, across EMEA during the quarter.
Net sales in the second quarter of 2013 were $1,577 million, decreasing $19 million, or 1.2%, from $1,596 million in the second quarter of 2012. Net sales decreased due primarily to unfavorable price and product mix of $50 million, driven primarily by the impact of lower raw material costs on pricing, and lower sales in our other tire-related businesses of $12 million, primarily in our retail operations. These decreases were partially offset by higher tire volume of $42 million.
Operating income in the second quarter of 2013 was $51 million, increasing $32 million, or 168.4%, from $19 million in the second quarter of 2012. Operating income increased due primarily to a decline in raw material costs of $69 million, which more than offset the effect of lower price and product mix of $35 million, lower SAG expenses of $19 million, primarily due to lower advertising and marketing costs, and higher tire volume of $8 million. These increases were partially offset by higher conversion costs of $16 million and lower income from our other tire-related businesses of $11 million, primarily in our retail operations. Conversion costs were negatively impacted by higher under-absorbed fixed overhead of $14 million on lower production volume. Conversion costs and SAG expenses included net savings from rationalization plans of $1 million and $3 million, respectively.
Operating income in the second quarter of 2013 excluded a charge of $5 million related to accelerated depreciation at one of our Amiens, France manufacturing facilities, a charge of $5 million related to labor claims with respect to a previously closed facility, and net rationalization charges of $3 million. Operating income in the second quarter of 2012 excluded a charge of $20 million related to labor claims with respect to a previously closed facility, net gains on asset sales of $7 million and net rationalization charges of $5 million.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
Europe, Middle East and Africa unit sales in the first six months of 2013 decreased 2.5 million units, or 7.9%, to 29.7 million units. Replacement tire volume decreased 2.3 million units, or 9.8%, primarily in consumer replacement, due to economic weakness and uncertainty in the region which slowed retail demand, aggressive competition, and high trade inventory levels following weak dealer seasonal tire sales, primarily in the first quarter. OE tire volume decreased 0.2 million units, or 2.7%, due to economic weakness and uncertainty in the region and increased competition, primarily in the first quarter.
Net sales in the first six months of 2013 were $3,184 million, decreasing $350 million, or 9.9%, from $3,534 million in the first six months of 2012. Net sales decreased due primarily to lower tire volume of $249 million, unfavorable price and product mix of $38 million, driven primarily by the impact of lower raw material costs on pricing, unfavorable foreign currency translation of $36 million, and lower sales in our other tire-related businesses of $27 million, primarily in our retail operations.
Operating income in the first six months of 2013 was $82 million, decreasing $27 million, or 24.8%, from $109 million in the first six months of 2012. Operating income decreased due primarily to higher conversion costs of $49 million, lower tire volume of $47 million, lower income from our other tire-related businesses of $12 million, primarily in our retail operations, and higher transportation costs of $7 million. These decreases were partially offset by a decline in raw material costs of $158 million, which more than offset the effect of lower price and product mix of $97 million, and lower SAG expenses of $31 million, primarily due to lower advertising and marketing costs. Conversion costs were negatively impacted by higher under-absorbed fixed overhead of $42 million on lower production volume. Conversion costs and SAG expenses included net savings from rationalization plans of $1 million and $3 million, respectively.
Operating income in the first six months of 2013 excluded a charge of $10 million related to accelerated depreciation at one of our Amiens, France manufacturing facilities, net rationalization charges of $6 million, a charge of $5 million related to labor claims with respect to a previously closed facility, and a net loss on asset sales of $2 million. Operating income in the first six months of 2012 excluded a charge of $20 million related to labor claims with respect to a previously closed facility, net rationalization charges of $10 million and net gains on asset sales of $8 million.
The announced exit of our farm tire business in EMEA and closure of one of our Amiens, France manufacturing facilities are expected to improve EMEA operating income by approximately $75 million annually following the closure. As the required consultation process is ongoing, we are not able to currently estimate the timing of plan completion.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
Latin America unit sales in the second quarter of 2013 increased 0.2 million units, or 4.1%, to 4.5 million units. Replacement tire volume increased 0.2 million units, or 8.8%, due primarily to our volume improvements exceeding increased industry volumes. Replacement tire volume in the second quarter of 2012 included 0.2 million units from our bias truck tire business in certain countries, which was sold in May 2012. OE tire volume remained essentially flat.
Net sales in the second quarter of 2013 were $531 million, increasing $28 million, or 5.6%, from $503 million in the second quarter of 2012. Net sales increased primarily due to improved price and product mix of $70 million, higher volume of $25 million, and higher sales in other tire-related businesses of $9 million. These increases were partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency translation of $50 million, mainly in Brazil and Venezuela, and $26 million related to the sale of the bias truck tire business in 2012.
Operating income in the second quarter of 2013 was $82 million, increasing $24 million, or 41.4%, from $58 million in the second quarter of 2012. Operating income increased primarily due to improved price and product mix of $52 million, lower raw material costs of $12 million, and higher tire volume of $6 million. These increases were partially offset by higher conversion costs of $22 million, unfavorable foreign currency translation of $9 million, higher SAG expenses of $8 million, and lower profits on intersegment sales of $5 million. Conversion costs were negatively impacted by overall inflation, including wages and benefits.

- 39-


The increase in SAG expenses is due primarily to overall inflation, including wages and benefits, and higher warehousing expenses. SAG expenses included savings from rationalization plans of $3 million.
Operating income in the second quarter of 2013 excluded net rationalization charges of $2 million and net losses on asset sales of $1 million. Operating income in the second quarter of 2012 excluded gains on asset sales of $3 million.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
Latin America unit sales in the first six months of 2013 increased 0.4 million units, or 4.6%, to 9.0 million units. Replacement tire volume increased 0.5 million units, or 9.7%, due primarily to our volume improvements exceeding increased industry volumes. Replacement tire volume in the first six months of 2012 included 0.4 million units from our bias truck tire business in certain countries, which was sold in May 2012. OE tire volume remained essentially flat.
Net sales in the first six months of 2013 were $1,044 million, increasing $20 million, or 2.0%, from $1,024 million in the first six months of 2012. Net sales increased primarily due to improved price and product mix of $129 million, higher volume of $49 million, and higher sales in other tire-related businesses of $14 million. These increases were partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency translation of $112 million, mainly in Brazil and Venezuela, and $60 million related to the sale of the bias truck tire business in 2012.
Operating income in the first six months of 2013 was $142 million, increasing $29 million, or 25.7%, from $113 million in the first six months of 2012. Operating income increased primarily due to improved price and product mix of $97 million, lower raw material costs of $16 million, and higher tire volume of $12 million. These increases were partially offset by higher conversion costs of $55 million, unfavorable foreign currency translation of $20 million, higher SAG expenses of $10 million, and lower profits on intersegment sales of $8 million. Conversion costs were negatively impacted by overall inflation, including wages and benefits. The increase in SAG expenses is due primarily to overall inflation, including wages and benefits, and higher warehousing expenses. SAG expenses included savings from rationalization plans of $6 million.
Operating income in the first six months of 2013 excluded net rationalization charges of $2 million. In addition, a first quarter foreign currency exchange loss of $115 million related to the devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar fuerte is excluded from Latin America and total company segment operating income in 2013. Operating income in the first six months of 2012 excluded net gains on asset sales of $3 million and net rationalization charges of $2 million.
Goodyear Venezuela contributed a significant portion of Latin America's sales and operating income in 2012. Latin America's results in the first quarter of 2013 were negatively impacted by the February 2013 devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar fuerte against the U.S. dollar. Our business has stabilized in the second quarter of 2013; however, the continuing economic uncertainty in Venezuela may adversely impact Latin America's current year segment operating income as compared to 2012.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
Asia Pacific unit sales in the second quarter of 2013 increased 0.3 million units, or 5.3%, to 5.6 million units. Replacement tire volume increased 0.2 million units, or 6.3%, and OE tire volume increased 0.1 million units, or 4.0%. The increase in unit volume throughout much of the region was partially offset by declines in consumer volume in Australia as a result of a continued weak economic environment and in India due primarily to slowing economic conditions.
Net sales in the second quarter of 2013 were $585 million, decreasing $15 million, or 2.5%, from $600 million in the second quarter of 2012. Net sales decreased due primarily to unfavorable price and product mix of $20 million, driven primarily by the

- 40-


impact of lower raw material costs on pricing, lower sales in other tire-related businesses of $12 million, primarily in our retail operations, and unfavorable foreign currency translation of $10 million driven by the depreciation of the Australian dollar and Indian rupee. These decreases were partially offset by higher volumes of $25 million.
Operating income in the second quarter of 2013 was $91 million, increasing $20 million, or 28.2%, from $71 million in the second quarter of 2012. Operating income increased due primarily to lower raw material costs of $37 million, which more than offset the effect of lower price and product mix of $26 million, lower start-up expenses for our new manufacturing facility in Pulandian, China of $9 million, higher volume of $7 million, and lower SAG expenses of $3 million, primarily relating to advertising expenses. These increases were partially offset by higher conversion costs of $5 million, unfavorable foreign currency translation of $4 million and lower income from other tire-related businesses of $2 million.
Operating income in the second quarter of 2013 excluded net rationalization charges of $3 million and net gains on asset sales of $3 million. Operating income in the second quarter of 2012 excluded net rationalization charges of $8 million and charges for accelerated depreciation of $4 million.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
Asia Pacific unit sales in the first six months of 2013 increased 0.5 million units, or 5.0%, to 10.7 million units. Replacement tire volume increased 0.3 million units, or 5.4%, and OE tire volume increased 0.2 million units, or 4.4%. The increase in unit volume throughout much of the region and recovery from the Thailand flooding, which negatively impacted 2012 volume, was partially offset by declines in consumer volume in Australia as a result of a continued weak economic environment and in India due primarily to slowing economic conditions.
Net sales in the first six months of 2013 were $1,152 million, decreasing $25 million, or 2.1%, from $1,177 million in the first six months of 2012. Net sales decreased due primarily to lower sales in other tire-related businesses of $27 million, primarily in our retail operations, unfavorable price and product mix of $25 million, driven primarily by the impact of lower raw material costs on pricing, and unfavorable foreign currency translation of $24 million, driven by depreciation of the Australian dollar and Indian rupee. These decreases were partially offset by higher volumes of $50 million.
Operating income in the first six months of 2013 was $175 million, increasing $37 million, or 26.8%, from $138 million in the first six months of 2012. Operating income increased due primarily to lower raw material costs of $68 million, which more than offset the effect of lower price and product mix of $33 million, lower start-up expenses related to our new manufacturing facility in China of $12 million, higher volume of $9 million, and insurance recoveries related to the fourth quarter 2011 Thailand flood of $7 million. These increases were partially offset by higher conversion costs of $9 million, lower income from other tire-related businesses of $7 million, primarily in our retail operations, and unfavorable foreign currency translation of $7 million.
In the first six months of 2013, on a consolidated basis, we recorded a $9 million net benefit ($6 million after-tax), which included $7 million in Asia Pacific, due to insurance recoveries for the fourth quarter 2011 flood in Thailand.
In 2013, start-up expenses at our new manufacturing facility in Pulandian, China are anticipated to be $20 million to $30 million lower as compared to 2012.
Operating income in the first six months of 2013 excluded net rationalization charges of $5 million and net gains on asset sales of $3 million. Operating income in the first six months of 2012 excluded net rationalization charges of $10 million and charges for accelerated depreciation of $6 million.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from our operating and financing activities. Our cash flows from operating activities are driven primarily by our operating results and changes in our working capital requirements and our cash flows from financing activities are dependent upon our ability to access credit or other capital.
In the second quarter of 2013, we continued to experience weak, but stabilizing, industry conditions in developed markets as the economic recovery continued to be impacted by high levels of unemployment.
In the first quarter of 2013, we completed the sale of our $900 million 6.5% senior notes due 2021, generating net proceeds of approximately $885 million after underwriting discounts, commissions and offering costs. We used substantially all of the net proceeds from the sale of those notes to fund contributions to our frozen U.S. pension plans.
At June 30, 2013, we had $2,564 million in Cash and cash equivalents, compared to $2,281 million at December 31, 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, net cash used by operating activities was $462 million due primarily to pension contributions and direct payments of $993 million and cash used for working capital of $221 million, which exceeded net income, before depreciation expense and other non-cash charges. Net cash used by investing activities was $502 million driven primarily by capital expenditures of $493 million. Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,420 million primarily driven by net borrowings of $1,454 which included net proceeds of $885 million from the first quarter 2013 issuance of $900 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.5% senior notes due 2021.
At June 30, 2013, we had $2,421 million of unused availability under our various credit agreements, compared to $2,949 million at December 31, 2012. The table below presents unused availability under our credit facilities at those dates:

We have deposited our cash and cash equivalents and entered into various credit agreements and derivative contracts with financial institutions that we considered to be substantial and creditworthy at the time of such transactions. We seek to control our exposure to these financial institutions by diversifying our deposits, credit agreements and derivative contracts across multiple financial institutions, by setting deposit and counterparty credit limits based on long term credit ratings and other indicators of credit risk such as credit default swap spreads, and by monitoring the financial strength of these financial institutions on a regular basis. We also enter into master netting agreements with counterparties when possible. By controlling and monitoring exposure to financial institutions in this manner, we believe that we effectively manage the risk of loss due to nonperformance by a financial institution. However, we cannot provide assurance that we will not experience losses or delays in accessing our deposits or lines of credit due to the nonperformance of a financial institution. Our inability to access our cash deposits or make draws on our lines of credit, or the inability of a counterparty to fulfill its contractual obligations to us, could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial position or results of operations in the period in which it occurs.
During the first quarter of 2013, we made $34 million of required contributions and $834 million of discretionary contributions to fully fund our frozen U.S. pension plans. Following these contributions, the Company changed its target asset allocation for these plans to a portfolio of substantially all fixed income securities designed to offset the future impact of discount rate movements on the plans' funded status.
Changes in general interest rates and corporate (AA or better) credit spreads impact the discount rate used to determine our U.S. pension liability. In the first quarter of 2013, substantially all of our U.S. pension plans entered into short term zero cost interest rate option strategies in order to significantly reduce the volatility of our U.S. pension plan funded status. Following this, as noted above, we fully funded our frozen U.S. pension plans, changed their target asset allocation to a portfolio of substantially all fixed income securities and measured the liabilities and assets of those plans at February 28, 2013. December 31, 2012 remained the measurement date for our other U.S. pension plans. If general interest rates were to decrease in parallel (i.e., across all maturities) from these measurement points, the actions described above would mitigate a portion of the impact of the expected increase in our U.S. pension benefit obligation. For example, a 0.50% decrease in general interest rates would mitigate approximately 85%

- 42-


of the expected increase in the U.S. pension benefit obligation and a 1.00% decrease would mitigate approximately 75% of the expected increase. If general interest rates were to increase in parallel from these measurement points, the actions described above would limit the benefit of higher interest rates on our U.S. pension benefit obligation to the extent those interest rates increase beyond specified levels. For example, a 0.50% increase in general interest rates would result in approximately a 35% offset to the expected decrease in the U.S. pension benefit obligation, a 1.00% increase would result in approximately a 40% offset and a 1.50% increase would result in approximately a 50% offset.
In the first quarter of 2013, we also entered into short term zero cost equity collars that cap upside benefits and limit downside risk on a portion of the pension plans' U.S. equity portfolio. These agreements initially covered 75% of our equity position and were designed to continue to cover approximately 75% of the equity positions of the plans not fully funded in the first quarter of 2013.
In 2013, we expect our operating cash flow to include global contributions to our funded pension plans of approximately $275 million to $325 million, in addition to discretionary contributions of $834 million.
The Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (the "MAP-21 Act") contains provisions that stabilize the interest rates used to calculate required pension contributions in the United States. Minimum contribution requirements for our U.S. pension plans are determined under the provisions of the MAP-21 Act. Including the impact of the full funding of our frozen U.S. pension plans during the first quarter of 2013, the funding stabilization provisions of the MAP-21 Act are expected to reduce our total U.S. minimum required pension contributions by approximately $375 million to $425 million in the aggregate through 2016, with the greatest benefit coming in 2013 and 2014. We currently estimate that we will make contributions to our funded U.S. pension plans of approximately $175 million to $200 million in 2013, in addition to discretionary contributions of $834 million, and $250 million to $300 million in 2014.
We expect our 2013 investing cash flow needs to include capital expenditures of approximately $1.1 billion, interest expense to range between $395 million to $415 million and, when and if future dividends are declared, dividends on our mandatory convertible preferred stock to be $29 million. We intend to operate the business in a way that allows us to address these needs with our existing cash and available credit if they cannot be funded by cash generated from operations.
Sumitomo Rubber Industries, Ltd. (“SRI”) has minority exit rights upon the occurrence of certain events enumerated in the global alliance agreements, including certain bankruptcy events, changes in our control or breaches (subject to notice and the opportunity to cure) of the global alliance agreements. SRI’s exit rights, if triggered and exercised, could require us to make a substantial payment to acquire SRI’s interests in Goodyear Dunlop Tires Europe B.V. (“GDTE”) and Goodyear Dunlop Tires North America, Ltd. (“GDTNA”) following the determination of the fair value of SRI’s interests. For further information regarding our global alliance with SRI, including the events that could trigger SRI’s exit rights, see “Item 1. Business. Description of Goodyear’s Business — Global Alliance” in our 2012 Form 10-K. As of the date of this filing, SRI has not provided us notice of any exit rights that have become exercisable.
Our ability to service debt and operational requirements is also dependent, in part, on the ability of our subsidiaries to make distributions of cash to various other entities in our consolidated group, whether in the form of dividends, loans or otherwise. In certain countries where we operate, such as China, Venezuela, and South Africa, transfers of funds into or out of such countries by way of dividends, loans, advances or payments to third-party or affiliated suppliers are generally or periodically subject to certain requirements, such as obtaining approval from the foreign government and/or currency exchange board before net assets can be transferred out of the country. In addition, certain of our credit agreements and other debt instruments limit the ability of foreign subsidiaries to make distributions of cash. Thus, we would have to repay and/or amend these credit agreements and other debt instruments in order to use this cash to service our consolidated debt. Because of the inherent uncertainty of satisfactorily meeting these requirements or limitations, we do not consider the net assets of our subsidiaries, including our Chinese, Venezuelan and South African subsidiaries, that are subject to such requirements or limitations to be integral to our liquidity or our ability to service our debt and operational requirements. At June 30, 2013, approximately $608 million of net assets, including $456 million of cash and cash equivalents, were subject to such requirements, including $324 million of cash in Venezuela. The requirements we must comply with to transfer funds out of China and South Africa have not adversely impacted our ability to make transfers out of those countries.

Since Venezuela's economy is considered to be highly inflationary under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, the U.S. dollar is the functional currency of our Venezuelan subsidiary. All gains and losses resulting from the remeasurement of its financial statements are determined using official exchange rates and are reported in Other (Income) Expense. Effective February 13, 2013, Venezuela's official exchange rate changed from 4.3 to 6.3 bolivares fuertes to the U.S. dollar for substantially all goods. As a result of the devaluation, we recorded a $115 million remeasurement loss on bolivar-denominated net monetary assets and liabilities including deferred taxes, primarily related to cash deposits in Venezuela. We also recorded a one-time subsidy receivable of $13 million related to certain U.S. dollar-denominated payables that are expected to be settled at the official subsidy exchange rate of 4.3 bolivares fuertes per U.S. dollar applicable to certain import purchases prior to the devaluation date. A portion of this subsidy will reduce cost of goods sold in future periods when the related inventory is sold. We have conducted an assessment, and will periodically update our assessment, of our ability to realize the benefit of the subsidy receivable, which we expect to be substantially recovered during 2013.
Beginning February 13, 2013, we have used the official exchange rate of 6.3 bolivares fuertes to the U.S. dollar to settle substantially all foreign currency transactions in Venezuela. If in the future we convert bolivares fuertes at a rate other than the official exchange rate or the official exchange rate is revised, we may realize additional losses that would be recorded in the Statements of Operations. At June 30, 2013, we had bolivar fuerte denominated monetary assets of $394 million which consisted primarily of $324 million of cash, $28 million of deferred tax assets and $28 million of accounts receivable, and bolivar fuerte denominated monetary liabilities of $154 million which consisted primarily of $86 million of intercompany payables, including $41 million of dividends, $22 million of accounts payable - trade, $20 million of long term benefits, and $12 million of compensation and benefits. At December 31, 2012, we had bolivar fuerte denominated monetary assets of $446 million which consisted primarily of $398 million of cash, $22 million of deferred tax assets and $10 million of accounts receivable, and bolivar fuerte denominated monetary liabilities of $202 million which consisted primarily of $112 million of intercompany payables, including $59 million of dividends, $37 million of accounts payable - trade, $24 million of long term benefits, $10 million of compensation and benefits and $4 million of income taxes payable. All monetary assets and liabilities were remeasured at 6.3 and 4.3 bolivares fuertes to the U.S. dollar at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
Goodyear Venezuela’s sales were 2.2% and 1.6% of our net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively and were 2.1% and 1.6% of our net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Goodyear Venezuela’s cost of goods sold were 2.0% and 1.4% of our cost of goods sold for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and were 2.0% and 1.3% of our cost of goods sold for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Goodyear Venezuela’s sales are bolivar fuerte denominated and cost of goods sold are approximately 65% bolivar fuerte denominated and approximately 35% U.S. dollar denominated. A further 10% decrease in the bolivar fuerte against the U.S. dollar would decrease Goodyear Venezuela’s sales and cost of goods sold by approximately $37 million and approximately $18 million, respectively, on an annual basis, before any potential offsetting actions.
During the six months ended June 30, 2013, Goodyear Venezuela settled $49 million and $1 million, respectively, of U.S. dollar-denominated intercompany payables and accounts payable - trade. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, approximately 27% and 73% of those payables were settled at the official exchange rate of 4.3 and 6.3 bolivares fuertes to the U.S. dollar, respectively. At June 30, 2013, settlements of U.S. dollar-denominated liabilities pending before the currency exchange board were approximately $164 million, of which approximately $40 million are expected to be settled at 4.3 bolivares fuertes to the U.S. dollar and approximately $124 million are expected to be settled at 6.3 bolivares fuertes to the U.S. dollar. At June 30, 2013, approximately $22 million of the requested settlements were pending up to 180 days, approximately $55 million were pending from 180 to 360 days and approximately $87 million were pending over one year. Amounts pending up to 180 days include imported tires and raw materials of $17 million, amounts pending from 180 to 360 days include imported tires and raw materials of $54 million, and amounts pending over one year include dividends payable of $41 million, intercompany charges for royalties of $12 million, and imported tires of $10 million. Currency exchange controls in Venezuela continue to limit our ability to remit funds from Venezuela.
We believe that our liquidity position is adequate to fund our operating and investing needs and debt maturities in 2013 and to provide us with flexibility to respond to further changes in the business environment. If market opportunities exist, we may choose to undertake additional financing actions in order to further enhance our liquidity position, which could include obtaining new bank debt or capital markets transactions. However, the challenges we face may cause a material reduction in our liquidity as a result of an adverse change in our cash flow from operations or our access to credit or other capital. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2012 Form 10-K for a more detailed discussion of these challenges.
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $462 million in the first six months of 2013, compared to $451 million in the first six months of 2012. Operating cash flows were unfavorably impacted by increased pension contributions of $766 million, partially offset by a reduction in the cash used to fund seasonal working capital needs of $547 million. Increased earnings of $113 million also benefited operating cash flows, despite a first quarter 2013 non-cash charge of $115 million for the devaluation of the

- 44-


Venezuelan bolivar fuerte. The increase in pension contributions was due primarily to first quarter 2013 discretionary contributions of $834 million to fully fund our frozen U.S. pension plans. The decrease in cash used for working capital in 2013 was primarily due to reduced sales and production levels, primarily in North America and EMEA, lower raw material costs and improved payment terms from vendors.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $502 million in the first six months of 2013, compared to $512 million in the first six months of 2012. Capital expenditures were $493 million in the first six months of 2013, compared to $490 million in the first six months of 2012. Beyond expenditures required to sustain our facilities, capital expenditures in 2013 primarily related to expansion of manufacturing capacity in Japan, Brazil and Chile. Expenditures in 2012 primarily related to expansion of manufacturing capacity in China and Chile.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,420 million in the first six months of 2013, compared to $343 million in the first six months of 2012. Financing activities in 2013 included net borrowings of $1,454 million used to fully fund our frozen U.S. pension plans and to fund working capital needs and capital expenditures. Net borrowings in 2013 included net proceeds of $885 million from the first quarter issuance of $900 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.5% senior notes due 2021 and borrowings of approximately $559 million under various other credit facilities.
Credit Sources
In aggregate, we had total credit arrangements of $9,286 million available at June 30, 2013, of which $2,421 million were unused, compared to $8,387 million available at December 31, 2012, of which $2,949 million were unused. At June 30, 2013, we had long term credit arrangements totaling $8,771 million, of which $1,985 million were unused, compared to $7,837 million and $2,501 million, respectively, at December 31, 2012. At June 30, 2013, we had short term committed and uncommitted credit arrangements totaling $515 million, of which $436 million were unused, compared to $550 million and $448 million, respectively, at December 31, 2012. The continued availability of the short term uncommitted arrangements is at the discretion of the relevant lender and may be terminated at any time.
See Note 7, Financing Arrangements and Derivative Financial Instruments, for a discussion of the issuance of our $900 million 6.5% senior notes due 2021 in the first quarter of 2013.
Outstanding Notes
At June 30, 2013, we had $3,336 million of outstanding notes, compared to $2,440 million at December 31, 2012.
For additional information on our outstanding notes, refer to the Note to Consolidated Financial Statements, No. 14, Financing Arrangements and Derivative Financial Instruments, in our 2012 Form 10-K and Note 7, Financing Arrangements and Derivative Financial Instruments, in this Form 10-Q.
$2.0 Billion Amended and Restated First Lien Revolving Credit Facility due 2017
Our amended and restated $2.0 billion first lien revolving credit facility is available in the form of loans or letters of credit, with letter of credit availability limited to $800 million. Loans under this facility initially bear interest at LIBOR plus 150 basis points, based on our current liquidity. Subject to the consent of the lenders whose commitments are to be increased, we may request that the facility be increased by up to $250 million. Availability under the facility is subject to a borrowing base, which is based on eligible accounts receivable and inventory of The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company and certain of its U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries, after adjusting for customary factors that are subject to modification from time to time by the administrative agent or the majority lenders at their discretion (not to be exercised unreasonably). Modifications are based on the results of periodic collateral and borrowing base evaluations and appraisals. To the extent that our eligible accounts receivable and inventory decline, our borrowing base will decrease and the availability under the facility may decrease below $2.0 billion. In addition, if the amount of outstanding borrowings and letters of credit under the facility exceeds the borrowing base, we are required to prepay borrowings and/or cash collateralize letters of credit sufficient to eliminate the excess. As of June 30, 2013, our borrowing base, and therefore our availability, under the facility was $459 million below the facility's stated amount of $2.0 billion.
At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we had no borrowings outstanding under the first lien revolving credit facility. Letters of credit issued totaled $394 million at June 30, 2013 and $407 million at December 31, 2012.

$1.2 Billion Amended and Restated Second Lien Term Loan Facility due 2019
Our obligations under this facility are guaranteed by most of our wholly-owned U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries and are secured by second priority security interests in the same collateral securing the $2.0 billion first lien revolving credit facility. Subject to the consent of the lenders making additional term loans, we may request that the facility be increased by up to $300 million. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, this facility was fully drawn.
€400 Million Amended and Restated Senior Secured European Revolving Credit Facility due 2016
Our amended and restated €400 million revolving credit facility consists of a €100 million German tranche that is available only to Goodyear Dunlop Tires Germany GmbH (the “German borrower”) and a €300 million all-borrower tranche that is available to GDTE, the German borrower and certain of GDTE’s other subsidiaries. Up to €50 million in letters of credit are available for issuance under the all-borrower tranche. GDTE and certain of its subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, Luxembourg, France and Germany provide guarantees to support the facility. GDTE’s obligations under the facility and the obligations of its subsidiaries under the related guarantees are secured by security interests in a variety of collateral. Goodyear and its U.S. subsidiaries and primary Canadian subsidiary that guarantee our U.S. senior secured credit facilities described above also provide unsecured guarantees to support the facility.
At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there were no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility. Letters of credit issued under the all-borrower tranche totaled $10 million (€7 million) at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
Each of our first lien revolving credit facility and our European revolving credit facility have customary representations and warranties including, as a condition to borrowing, that all such representations and warranties are true and correct, in all material respects, on the date of the borrowing, including representations as to no material adverse change in financial condition since December 31, 2011 under the first lien facility and December 31, 2010 under the European facility. Each of the facilities described above have customary defaults, including cross-defaults to material indebtedness of Goodyear and our subsidiaries. For a description of the collateral securing the above facilities as well as the covenants applicable to them, please refer to “Covenant Compliance” below, the Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 14, Financing Arrangements and Derivative Financial Instruments, in our 2012 Form 10-K and Note 7, Financing Arrangements and Derivative Financial Instruments, in this Form 10-Q.
International Accounts Receivable Securitization Facilities (On-Balance Sheet)
GDTE and certain of its subsidiaries are parties to a pan-European accounts receivable securitization facility that provides up to €450 million of funding and expires in 2015. Availability under this facility is based on eligible receivable balances. The facility is subject to the customary renewal of its back-up liquidity commitments, which expire on October 17, 2014.
The facility involves an ongoing daily sale of substantially all of the trade accounts receivable of certain GDTE subsidiaries to a bankruptcy-remote French company controlled by one of the liquidity banks in the facility. These subsidiaries retain servicing responsibilities. At June 30, 2013, the amounts available and utilized under this program totaled $345 million (€265 million). At December 31, 2012, the amounts available and utilized under this program totaled $348 million (€264 million) and $192 million (€145 million), respectively. The program did not qualify for sale accounting, and accordingly, these amounts are included in Long term debt and capital leases.
In addition to the pan-European accounts receivable securitization facility discussed above, subsidiaries in Australia have an accounts receivable securitization program that provides up to $87 million (95 million Australian dollars) of funding. Availability under this program is based on eligible receivable balances. At June 30, 2013, the amounts available and utilized under this program were $57 million. At December 31, 2012, the amounts available and utilized under this program were $99 million and $40 million, respectively. The receivables sold under this program also serve as collateral for the related facility. We retain the risk of loss related to these receivables in the event of non-payment. These amounts are included in Long Term Debt and Capital Leases due Within One Year.
Accounts Receivable Factoring Facilities (Off-Balance Sheet)
Various subsidiaries sell certain of their trade receivables under off-balance sheet programs. For these programs, we have concluded that there is no risk of loss to us from non-payment of the sold receivables. At June 30, 2013, the gross amount of receivables sold was $282 million, compared to $243 million at December 31, 2012.

- 46-


Vendor Financing    
We have entered into payment processing agreements with several financial institutions. Under these agreements, the financial institution acts as our paying agent with respect to accounts payable due to our suppliers. These agreements also allow our suppliers to sell their receivables to the financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the supplier and the financial institution on terms that are negotiated between them. We are not notified when our suppliers sell receivables under these programs. Our obligations to our suppliers, including the amounts due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by our suppliers' decisions to sell their receivables under the programs. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, agreements for such vendor financing programs totaled approximately $400 million.
Covenant Compliance
Our amended and restated first lien revolving and second lien credit facilities and some of the indentures governing our notes contain certain covenants that, among other things, limit our ability to incur additional debt or issue redeemable preferred stock, make certain restricted payments or investments, incur liens, sell assets, incur restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends to us, enter into affiliate transactions, engage in sale and leaseback transactions, and consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets. These covenants are subject to significant exceptions and qualifications.
We have additional financial covenants in our first lien revolving and second lien credit facilities that are currently not applicable. We only become subject to these financial covenants when certain events occur. These financial covenants and related events are as follows:
•
We become subject to the financial covenant contained in our first lien revolving credit facility when the aggregate amount of our Parent Company (The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company) and guarantor subsidiaries cash and cash equivalents (“Available Cash”) plus our availability under our first lien revolving credit facility is less than $200 million. If this were to occur, our ratio of EBITDA to Consolidated Interest Expense may not be less than 2.0 to 1.0 for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters. As of June 30, 2013, our availability under this facility of $1,147 million, plus our Available Cash of $1,218 million, totaled $2.4 billion, which is in excess of $200 million.
•
We become subject to a covenant contained in our second lien credit facility upon certain asset sales. The covenant provides that, before we use cash proceeds from certain asset sales to repay any junior lien, senior unsecured or subordinated indebtedness, we must first offer to use such cash proceeds to prepay borrowings under the second lien credit facility unless our ratio of Consolidated Net Secured Indebtedness to EBITDA (Pro Forma Senior Secured Leverage Ratio) for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters is equal to or less than 3.0 to 1.0.
In addition, our amended and restated European revolving credit facility contains non-financial covenants similar to the non-financial covenants in our first and second lien credit facilities that are described above and a financial covenant applicable only to GDTE and its subsidiaries. This financial covenant provides that we are not permitted to allow GDTE’s ratio of Consolidated Net J.V. Indebtedness to Consolidated European J.V. EBITDA for a period of four consecutive fiscal quarters to be greater than 3.0 to 1.0 at the end of any fiscal quarter. Consolidated Net J.V. Indebtedness is determined net of the sum of cash and cash equivalents in excess of $100 million held by GDTE and its subsidiaries, cash and cash equivalents in excess of $150 million held by the Parent Company and its U.S. subsidiaries and availability under our first lien revolving credit facility if the ratio of EBITDA to Consolidated Interest Expense described above is not applicable and the conditions to borrowing under the first lien revolving credit facility are met. Consolidated Net J.V. Indebtedness also excludes loans from other consolidated Goodyear entities. This financial covenant is also included in our pan-European accounts receivable securitization facility. At June 30, 2013, we were in compliance with this financial covenant.
Our amended and restated credit facilities also state that we may only incur additional debt or make restricted payments that are not otherwise expressly permitted if, after giving effect to the debt incurrence or the restricted payment, our ratio of EBITDA to Consolidated Interest Expense for the prior four fiscal quarters would exceed 2.0 to 1.0. Certain of our senior note indentures have substantially similar limitations on incurring debt and making restricted payments. Our credit facilities and indentures also permit the incurrence of additional debt through other provisions in those agreements without regard to our ability to satisfy the ratio-based incurrence test described above. We believe that these other provisions provide us with sufficient flexibility to incur additional debt necessary to meet our operating, investing and financing needs without regard to our ability to satisfy the ratio-based incurrence test.
There are no known future changes to, or new covenants in, any of our existing debt obligations at June 30, 2013 other than as described above. Covenants could change based upon a refinancing or amendment of an existing facility, or additional covenants may be added in connection with the incurrence of new debt.
At June 30, 2013, we were in compliance with the currently applicable material covenants imposed by our principal credit facilities and indentures.

- 47-


The terms “Available Cash,” “EBITDA,” “Consolidated Interest Expense,” “Consolidated Net Secured Indebtedness,” “Pro Forma Senior Secured Leverage Ratio,” “Consolidated Net J.V. Indebtedness” and “Consolidated European J.V. EBITDA” have the meanings given them in the respective credit facilities.
Potential Future Financings
In addition to our previous financing activities, we may seek to undertake additional financing actions which could include restructuring bank debt or capital markets transactions, possibly including the issuance of additional debt or equity. Given the challenges that we face and the uncertainties of the market conditions, access to the capital markets cannot be assured.
Our future liquidity requirements may make it necessary for us to incur additional debt. However, a substantial portion of our assets are already subject to liens securing our indebtedness. As a result, we are limited in our ability to pledge our remaining assets as security for additional secured indebtedness. In addition, no assurance can be given as to our ability to raise additional unsecured debt.
Dividends
Under our primary credit facilities we are permitted to pay dividends on our common stock as long as no default will have occurred and be continuing, additional indebtedness can be incurred under the credit facilities following the payment, and certain financial tests are satisfied.
So long as any of our mandatory convertible preferred stock is outstanding, no dividend, except a dividend payable in shares of our common stock, or other shares ranking junior to the mandatory convertible preferred stock, may be paid or declared or any distribution be made on shares of our common stock unless all accrued and unpaid dividends on the then outstanding mandatory convertible preferred stock payable on all dividend payment dates occurring on or prior to the date of such action have been declared and paid or sufficient funds have been set aside for that payment.
Asset Dispositions
The restrictions on asset sales imposed by our material indebtedness have not affected our strategy of divesting non-core businesses, and those divestitures have not affected our ability to comply with those restrictions.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION — SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT
Certain information in this Form 10-Q (other than historical data and information) may constitute forward-looking statements regarding events and trends that may affect our future operating results and financial position. The words “estimate,” “expect,” “intend” and “project,” as well as other words or expressions of similar meaning, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Form 10-Q. Such statements are based on current expectations and assumptions, are inherently uncertain, are subject to risks and should be viewed with caution. Actual results and experience may differ materially from the forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including:
•
if we do not successfully implement our strategic initiatives, our operating results, financial condition and liquidity may be materially adversely affected;
•
our pension plans are significantly underfunded and further increases in the underfunded status of the plans could significantly increase the amount of our required contributions and pension expense;
•
we face significant global competition, increasingly from lower cost manufacturers, and our market share could decline;
•
deteriorating economic conditions in any of our major markets, or an inability to access capital markets or third-party financing when necessary, may materially adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and liquidity;
•
higher raw material and energy costs may materially adversely affect our operating results and financial condition;
•
if we experience a labor strike, work stoppage or other similar event our financial position, results of operations and liquidity could be materially adversely affected;
•
work stoppages, financial difficulties or supply disruptions at our major OE customers, dealers or suppliers could harm our business;
•
our capital expenditures may not be adequate to maintain our competitive position and may not be implemented in a timely or cost-effective manner;
•
our long term ability to meet current obligations, to repay maturing indebtedness or to implement strategic initiatives is dependent on our ability to access capital markets in the future and to improve our operating results;
•
we have a substantial amount of debt, which could restrict our growth, place us at a competitive disadvantage or otherwise materially adversely affect our financial health;
•
any failure to be in compliance with any material provision or covenant of our secured credit facilities could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and our results of operations;
•
our international operations have certain risks that may materially adversely affect our operating results;
•
we have foreign currency translation and transaction risks that may materially adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and liquidity;
•
our variable rate indebtedness subjects us to interest rate risk, which could cause our debt service obligations to increase significantly;
•
we have substantial fixed costs and, as a result, our operating income fluctuates disproportionately with changes in our net sales;
•
we may incur significant costs in connection with our contingent liabilities and tax matters;
•
our reserves for contingent liabilities and our recorded insurance assets are subject to various uncertainties, the outcome of which may result in our actual costs being significantly higher than the amounts recorded;
•
we may be required to provide letters of credit or post cash collateral if we are subject to a significant adverse judgment or if we are unable to obtain surety bonds, which may have a material adverse effect on our liquidity;
•
we are subject to extensive government regulations that may materially adversely affect our operating results;
•
the terms and conditions of our global alliance with SRI provide for certain exit rights available to SRI upon the occurrence of certain events, which could require us to make a substantial payment to acquire SRI’s minority interests in GDTE and GDTNA following the determination of the fair value of those interests;
•
we may be adversely affected by any disruption in, or failure of, our information technology systems;
•
if we are unable to attract and retain key personnel, our business could be materially adversely affected; and
•
we may be impacted by economic and supply disruptions associated with events beyond our control, such as war, acts of terror, political unrest, public health concerns, labor disputes or natural disasters.
It is not possible to foresee or identify all such factors. We will not revise or update any forward-looking statement or disclose any facts, events or circumstances that occur after the date hereof that may affect the accuracy of any forward-looking statement.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
We utilize derivative financial instrument contracts and nonderivative instruments to manage interest rate, foreign exchange and commodity price risks. We have established a control environment that includes policies and procedures for risk assessment and the approval, reporting and monitoring of derivative financial instrument activities. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Commodity Price Risk
The raw material costs to which our operations are principally exposed include the cost of natural rubber, synthetic rubber, carbon black, fabrics, steel cord and other petrochemical-based commodities. Approximately two-thirds of our raw materials are oil-based derivatives, the cost of which may be affected by fluctuations in the price of oil. We currently do not hedge commodity prices. We do, however, use various strategies to partially offset cost increases for raw materials, including centralizing purchases of raw materials through our global procurement organization in an effort to leverage our purchasing power, expanding our capabilities to substitute lower cost raw materials and reducing the amount of material required in each tire.
Interest Rate Risk
We continuously monitor our fixed and floating rate debt mix. Within defined limitations, we manage the mix using refinancing. At June 30, 2013, 36% of our debt was at variable interest rates averaging 5.57%.
The following table presents information about long term fixed rate debt, excluding capital leases, at June 30, 2013:

The pro forma information assumes a 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates at June 30, 2013, and reflects the estimated fair value of fixed rate debt outstanding at that date under that assumption. The sensitivity of our fixed rate debt to changes in interest rates was determined using current market pricing models.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
We enter into foreign currency contracts in order to reduce the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates on our consolidated results of operations and future foreign currency-denominated cash flows. These contracts reduce exposure to currency movements affecting existing foreign currency-denominated assets, liabilities, firm commitments and forecasted transactions resulting primarily from trade purchases and sales, equipment acquisitions, intercompany loans and royalty agreements. Contracts hedging short term trade receivables and payables normally have no hedging designation.

The sensitivity of our foreign currency positions to changes in exchange rates was determined using current market pricing models.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” which, consistent with Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, we define to mean controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive and financial officers, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive and financial officers have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2013 (the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q).
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We are undertaking a phased implementation of enterprise resource planning systems in our Latin America SBU, which are expected to be completed in 2014. We believe we are maintaining and monitoring appropriate internal controls during the implementation period. There have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Asbestos Litigation
As reported in our Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2013, we were one of numerous defendants in legal proceedings in certain state and Federal courts involving approximately 73,500 claimants relating to their alleged exposure to materials containing asbestos in products allegedly manufactured by us or asbestos materials present in our facilities. During the second quarter of 2013, approximately 900 new claims were filed against us and approximately 400 were settled or dismissed. The amount expended on asbestos defense and claim resolution by Goodyear and its insurance carriers during the second quarter and first six months of 2013 was $5 million and $10 million, respectively. At June 30, 2013, there were approximately 74,000 asbestos claims pending against us. The plaintiffs are seeking unspecified actual and punitive damages and other relief. See Note 11, “Commitments and Contingent Liabilities” in this Form 10-Q for additional information on asbestos litigation.
Brazilian Tax Assessments

We received assessments from the State of Sao Paulo, Brazil in December 2010 for allegedly improperly taking tax credits for value-added taxes paid to suppliers of natural rubber during the period from January 2006 to October 2009. These assessments, including interest and penalties, totaled 88 million Brazilian real (approximately $39 million). In the second quarter of 2013, we paid 51 million Brazilian real ($23 million) pursuant to a special payment program offered by the State of Sao Paulo in satisfaction of these assessments.
Greek Labor Cases
In a series of cases, approximately 320 former employees of a factory in Thessaloniki, Greece that was closed in 1996 sued Goodyear Dunlop Tires Hellas S.A.I.C. (“Goodyear Dunlop Greece”) seeking compensation in arrears alleging the absence of consultation prior to the closure under applicable European law. Following extensive litigation at all levels of the Greek courts and the European Court of Justice over the past 16 years, the Greek Court of Appeal issued judgments in September and October 2012 affirming Goodyear Dunlop Greece's liability to pay salaries in arrears with respect to the 5-1/2 year period following the plant closure and permitting a reduction in the amount of that liability to the extent of severance payments previously paid to the former employees. Goodyear Dunlop Greece appealed those judgments to the Greek Supreme Court. In May 2013, the Greek Supreme Court ruled that incomes earned in other capacities should have been deducted from the award of salaries in arrears and remanded the case to the Court of Appeals for further proceedings consistent with its ruling. On July 17, 2013, Goodyear Dunlop Greece settled the claims for salaries in arrears, interest and related payroll and other taxes with respect to the seven month period immediately following the plant closure for approximately €2 million ($2 million).
Goodyear Dunlop Greece's liability with respect to these judgments is currently estimated to be up to approximately €37 million ($48 million), which includes salaries in arrears, interest and related payroll taxes. In addition, Goodyear Dunlop Greece may be required to pay social security contributions up to €25 million ($33 million) related to any salaries in arrears it must ultimately pay. The Greek Social Security Organization, or IKA, has issued payment notifications in respect of certain of its claims for social security contributions. In March 2013, the former employees filed a separate claim for severance payments totaling approximately €12 million ($16 million). Goodyear Dunlop Greece is vigorously defending these cases, the ultimate outcome of which cannot be predicted at this time.
Reference is made to Item 3 of Part I of our 2012 Form 10-K and to Item 1 of Part II of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2013 for additional discussion of legal proceedings.
