ITEM 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
As a result of continued declines in worldwide market demand for
consumer film products, Eastman Kodak Company committed to a plan to
reduce consumer film capacity at its facilities in Rochester, New York
on June 21, 2005. This action will decommission back-up consumer film
production manufacturing equipment and its related utilities equipment.
As a result of this action, the Company will incur asset impairment
charges of approximately $32 million. There is no impact to employment
levels related to this action. Cash outlays to shutdown the equipment
are less than $.3 million. This action will be complete by July 30,
2005.
This action is a part of the Company's restructuring program that was
announced on January 22, 2004 and represents the continued commitment to
eliminate excess capacity based on worldwide market demand for
traditional photographic products.
