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 (“Goodyear”, “we”, “us” or “our”) in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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, 2006 (the “2006 Form 10-K”).
Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected in subsequent quarters or for the year ending December 31, 2007.
As discussed in Note 11, the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of our Engineered Products business, previously a reportable operating segment, have been reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Unless otherwise indicated, all disclosures in the notes to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements relate to our continuing operations.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments” (“SFAS No. 155”) in February 2006. SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, and SFAS No. 140 “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities” and addresses the application of SFAS No. 133 to beneficial interests in securitized financial assets. SFAS No. 155 establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation. Additionally, SFAS No. 155 permits fair value measurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation. SFAS No. 155 is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. We adopted SFAS No. 155 on January 1, 2007. The adoption of SFAS No. 155 did not have a significant impact on our results of operations or financial position.
The FASB issued SFAS No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140” (“SFAS No. 156”) in March 2006. SFAS No. 156 requires a company to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset. A company will recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability initially at fair value. A company will then be permitted to choose to subsequently recognize servicing assets and liabilities using the amortization method or fair value measurement method. SFAS No. 156 is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. We adopted SFAS No. 156 on January 1, 2007. The adoption of SFAS No. 156 did not have a significant impact on our results of operations or financial position.
On July 13, 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN No. 48”). FIN No. 48 clarifies what criteria must be met prior to recognition of the financial statement benefit of a position taken in a tax return. FIN No. 48 requires companies to include additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures within their financial statements. The disclosures include potential tax benefits from positions taken for tax return purposes that have not been recognized for financial reporting purposes and a tabular presentation of significant changes during each annual period. The disclosures also include a discussion of the nature of uncertainties, factors which could cause a change, and an estimated range of reasonably possible changes in tax uncertainties. FIN No. 48 requires a company to recognize a financial statement benefit for a position taken for tax return purposes when it is more-likely-than-not that the position will be sustained. We adopted FIN No. 48 on January 1, 2007. The

(Unaudited)
adoption resulted in an increase in the opening balance of retained earnings and a decrease in goodwill as of January 1, 2007 of $32 million and $5 million, respectively, for tax benefits not previously recognized under historical practice.
On September 15, 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”). SFAS No. 157 addresses how a company should measure fair value when it is required to use a fair value measure for recognition and disclosure purposes under generally accepted accounting principles. SFAS No. 157 will require the fair value of an asset or liability to be based on a market based measure which will reflect the credit risk of the company. SFAS No. 157 will also require expanded disclosure requirements which will include the methods and assumptions used to measure fair value and the effect of fair value measures on earnings. SFAS No. 157 will be applied prospectively and will be effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and to interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently assessing the impact SFAS No. 157 will have on our consolidated financial statements.
The FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS No. 159”) in February 2007. SFAS No. 159 permits a company to choose to measure many financial instruments and other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing a company with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. A company shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No. 159 will be effective for fiscal years that begin after November 15, 2007. We are currently assessing the impact SFAS No. 159 will have on our consolidated financial statements.
Reclassification
Certain items previously reported in specific financial statement captions have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
NOTE 2. COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH RATIONALIZATION PROGRAMS
To maintain global competitiveness, we have implemented rationalization actions over the past several years for the purpose of reducing excess and high-cost manufacturing capacity and to reduce associate headcount.
The following table shows the reconciliation of our liability between periods:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |

| | | | | | | | | |
Balance at March 31, 2007 | | $ | 70 | | | $ | 14 | | | $ | 84 | |
| | | | | | | | | |
In the first quarter of 2007, we initiated plans to reduce manufacturing headcount and to reduce selling, administrative and general expense through headcount reductions.
During 2007, $15 million ($14 million after-tax or $0.08 per share) of net charges were recorded. New charges of $17 million represent $5 million for plans initiated in 2007 and $12 million for plans initiated in 2006. The $5 million of charges for 2007 plans related to associate severance costs and the $12 million of charges for plans initiated in 2006 include $4 million of associate severance costs and $8 million for other exit costs. Approximately 140 associates will be released under programs initiated in 2007, most of whom will be released within the next 12 months.
In the first quarter of 2007, $14 million was incurred primarily for associate severance payments and $14 million primarily for non-cancelable lease costs and other exit costs.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
The accrual balance of $84 million at March 31, 2007 includes approximately $10 million related to long term non-cancelable lease costs and approximately $74 million of associate and other costs that are expected to be substantially utilized within the next twelve months.
Accelerated depreciation charges were recorded for fixed assets that will be taken out of service primarily in connection with the Valleyfield and Tyler plant closures initiated in the North American Tire Segment. During the first quarter of 2007, $17 million was recorded as Cost of goods sold for accelerated depreciation charges. In the first quarter of 2006, $2 million was recorded as Selling, administrative and general expense.
In the first quarter of 2006, we initiated plans to close our European Union Tire Segment’s Washington passenger tire manufacturing facility in the United Kingdom. Additional restructuring actions consisted of the closure of retail stores in the European Union Tire Segment, the reduction of headcount within various segments and the initiation of the closure of the bicycle tire and tube production operation in Debica, Poland.
During 2006, $38 million ($28 million after-tax or $0.14 per share) of net charges were recorded. New charges of $39 million represent $38 million for plans initiated in 2006 and $1 million of associate-related costs for plans initiated in the fourth quarter of 2005. The $38 million of charges for plans initiated in 2006 include $36 million of associate severance costs and $2 million primarily for non-cancelable lease costs. Approximately 5,165 associates will be released under programs initiated in 2006, of which 3,100 were released by March 31, 2007.

Other income, net was $20 million of income in the 2007 first quarter, a decrease of $7 million compared to $27 million of income in the 2006 first quarter. The decrease was primarily related to $15 million of income in the first quarter of 2006 resulting from a favorable settlement of a legal matter in Latin American Tire and a charge of $7 million in 2007 related to an insurance deductible for a fire in our Thailand facility. These were partially offset by higher interest income in 2007 of $10 million on higher cash deposits. Also, included in asset sales in the first quarter of 2007 was a gain of $7 million on the sale of property in Asia Pacific Tire.
NOTE 4. PER SHARE OF COMMON STOCK
Basic earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
There are contingent conversion features included in our $350 million 4% Convertible Senior Notes due 2034, (the “Notes”) issued on July 2, 2004. The Notes became convertible on January 18, 2007 and remained convertible through March 31, 2007. Since the applicable stock price condition was met, the Notes are also convertible through June 30, 2007. In addition, if the applicable conditions are met, the Notes may be convertible in any future fiscal quarter. If all of the Notes outstanding are surrendered for conversion, the aggregate number of additional shares of common stock issued would be approximately 29 million.

Weighted average shares outstanding — diluted | | | 180 | | | | 207 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Weighted average shares outstanding — diluted for the three months ended March 31, 2007 exclude the effects of approximately 29 million contingently issuable shares and approximately 13 million equivalent shares related to options with exercise prices less than the average market price of our common shares (i.e. “in-the-money” options), as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive due to the loss from continuing operations for the period.
Additionally, weighted average shares outstanding — diluted exclude approximately 8 million and 24 million equivalent shares related to options with exercise prices greater than the average market price of our common shares (i.e. “underwater” options), for 2007 and 2006, respectively.

April 20, 2007 Refinancing
On April 20, 2007, we refinanced three of our credit facilities. Significant changes to the amended and restated agreements include:
| • | | With respect to our $1.5 billion first lien revolving credit facility, an extension of its maturity until 2013, a reduction of the applicable interest rate by between 50 and 75 basis points (depending on availability of undrawn amounts) and a more flexible covenant package. |

| • | | With respect to our $1.2 billion second lien term loan facility, an extension of its maturity until 2014, a reduction of the applicable interest rate by 100 basis points (to be further reduced by 25 basis points if our credit ratings are BB- and Ba3 or higher) and a more flexible covenant package. |
|
| • | | With respect to our€505 million senior secured European credit facilities, the conversion of the existing€155 million term loan to a revolving facility, an extension of the facilities’ maturity until 2012, a reduction of the applicable interest rate by 75 basis points (as compared to the existing European revolving facility) and 37.5 basis points (as compared to the existing European term loan) and a more flexible covenant package. |
The aggregate amount of fees we paid in connection with the refinancing was approximately $20 million.
$1.5 Billion Amended and Restated First Lien Revolving Credit Facility due 2013
The 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 collateral that includes, subject to certain exceptions:
| • | | U.S. and Canadian accounts receivable and inventory; |
|
| • | | certain of our U.S. manufacturing facilities; |
|
| • | | equity interests in our U.S. subsidiaries and up to 65% of the equity interests in our foreign subsidiaries, excluding Goodyear Dunlop Tires Europe B.V. (“GDTE”) and its subsidiaries; and |
|
| • | | substantially all other tangible and intangible assets, including equipment, contract rights and intellectual property. |
Availability under the facility is subject to a borrowing base, which is based on eligible accounts receivable and inventory, with reserves that are subject to adjustment from time to time by the administrative agent and the majority lenders at their discretion (not to be exercised unreasonably). Adjustments are based on the results of periodic collateral and borrowing base evaluations and appraisals. If at any time 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.
The facility, which matures on April 30, 2013, contains 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 (excluding the sale of our Engineered Products business and properties located in Akron, Ohio), 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. In addition, in the event that the availability under the facility plus the aggregate amount of our Available Cash is less than $150 million, we will not be permitted to allow our ratio of EBITDA to Consolidated Interest Expense to be less than 2.0 to 1.0 for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters. “Available Cash”, “EBITDA” and “Consolidated Interest Expense” have the meanings given them in the facility.
The facility has customary representations and warranties including, as a condition to borrowing, material adverse change representations in our financial condition since December 31, 2006.
For the 270-day period following the refinancing date and, thereafter, if the availability under the facility is greater than or equal to $400 million, amounts drawn under the facility will bear interest either (i) at a rate of 125 basis points over LIBOR or (ii) 25 basis points over an alternative base rate (the higher of the prime rate or the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points), and undrawn amounts under the facility will be subject to an annual commitment fee of 37.5 basis points. After the

270-day period following the refinancing date, if the availability under the facility is less than $400 million, then amounts drawn under the facility will bear interest either (i) at a rate of 150 basis points over LIBOR or (ii) 50 basis points over an alternative base rate, and undrawn amounts under the facility will be subject to an annual commitment fee of 25 basis points.
The $504 million of letters of credit that were outstanding under the $1.5 billion first lien credit facility prior to the refinancing continue to be outstanding under the amended and restated facility.
$1.2 Billion Amended and Restated Second Lien Term Loan Facility due 2014
The $1.2 billion in aggregate amount of term loans that were outstanding under this facility prior to the refinancing continue to be outstanding under the facility as amended and restated. Subject to the consent of the lenders making additional term loans, we may borrow incremental term loans under the facility in an amount up to $300 million. 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 our first lien credit facility. The second lien term loan facility, which matures on April 30, 2014, contains covenants similar to those in our first lien credit facility but is not subject to the financial covenant contained in that facility. However, if our ratio of Secured Indebtedness to EBITDA for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters is greater than 3.0 to 1.0, before we may use cash proceeds from certain asset sales to repay any junior lien, senior unsecured or subordinated indebtedness, we must first offer to prepay borrowings under the second lien term loan facility. “Secured Indebtedness” and “EBITDA” have the meanings given them in the facility.
Loans under this facility bear interest, at our option, at LIBOR plus 175 basis points or an alternative base rate plus 75 basis points. In the event that our corporate ratings by Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s improve to Ba3 or better and BB- or better, respectively (in each case with at least a stable outlook), then loans under this facility will bear interest, at our option, at LIBOR plus 150 basis points or an alternative base rate plus 50 basis points.
€505 Million Amended and Restated Senior Secured European Revolving Credit Facilities due 2012
These amended and restated facilities consist of a€350 million European revolving credit facility and a€155 million German revolving credit facility. The€153 million in aggregate amount of term loans that were outstanding prior to the refinancing have been transferred to the European revolving credit facility. Up to€50 million in letters of credit are available for issuance under the European revolving credit facility. Goodyear and its domestic subsidiaries that secure our U.S. facilities provide unsecured guarantees to support the European revolving credit facilities. GDTE and certain of its subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, Luxembourg, France and Germany also provide guarantees. GDTE’s obligations under the facilities and the obligations of its subsidiaries under the related guarantees are secured by first priority security interests in collateral that includes, subject to certain exceptions:
| • | | the capital stock of the principal subsidiaries of GDTE; and |
|
| • | | substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of GDTE and its subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, Luxembourg, France and Germany, including certain accounts receivable, inventory, real property, equipment, contract rights and cash and cash accounts, but excluding certain accounts receivable and cash accounts in subsidiaries that are or may become parties to securitization programs. |
The facilities, which mature on April 30, 2012, contain covenants similar to those in our first lien credit facility, with additional limitations applicable to GDTE and its subsidiaries. In addition, we are not permitted to allow GDTE’s ratio of Consolidated Net J.V. Indebtedness (which is determined net of cash and cash equivalents in excess of $100 million) to Consolidated European J.V. EBITDA to be greater than 3.0 to 1.0 at the end of any fiscal quarter. “Consolidated Net J.V. Indebtedness” and “Consolidated European J.V. EBITDA” have the meanings given them in the facilities.
The facilities have customary representations and warranties including, as a condition to borrowing, material adverse change representations in our financial condition since December 31, 2006.
Under the revolving credit facilities, we pay an annual commitment fee of 62.5 basis points on the undrawn portion of the commitments and loans bear interest at LIBOR plus 200 basis points for loans denominated in U.S. dollars or pounds sterling and EURIBOR plus 200 basis points for loans denominated in euros.

NOTE 6. STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS
Our Board of Directors granted 1.6 million stock options and 1.2 million performance share units during the first quarter of 2007 under our 2005 Performance Plan. The weighted average exercise price per share and weighted average fair value per share of these stock options was $24.71 and $11.54, respectively. We estimated the fair values using the following assumptions in our Black-Scholes model:
Expected term: 6.25 years
Interest rate: 4.61%
Volatility: 39.2%
Dividend yield: Nil
Additionally, we also granted 0.4 million reload options during the first quarter of 2007.
We recognized stock-based compensation expense of $15 million ($14 million after-tax) and $7 million ($6 million after-tax) during the first quarter of 2007 and 2006, respectively. As of March 31, 2007, unearned compensation cost related to the unvested portion of all stock-based awards was approximately $92 million and is expected to be recognized over the remaining vesting period of the respective grants, through March 31, 2011.
NOTE 7. PENSION, SAVINGS AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS
We provide substantially all employees with pension or savings benefits and substantially all domestic employees and employees at certain non-U.S. subsidiaries with health care and life insurance benefits upon retirement.
On March 23, 2007, we announced an agreement to sell our Engineered Products business which resulted in the recognition of curtailment and termination charges for both pensions and other postretirement benefit plans during the first quarter of 2007 of $72 million. Under the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement for Engineered Products, we will retain our obligations for pension and other postretirement benefits under our U.S. plans for Engineered Products’ existing retirees and employees eligible to retire as of the date of the closing of the sale. Obligations for benefits under certain non-U.S. plans will not be retained. A portion of U.S. net periodic cost for active employees of Engineered Products, and net periodic cost for certain non-U.S. plans have been included in Discontinued Operations.
On February 28, 2007, we announced that we will freeze our U.S. salaried pension plans effective December 31, 2008 and will implement improvements to our defined contribution savings plan effective January 1, 2009. As a result of these actions, we recognized a curtailment charge of $64 million during the first quarter of 2007. On February 28, 2007, we also announced changes to our U.S. salaried other postretirement benefit plans effective January 1, 2008, including increasing the amounts that salaried retirees contribute toward the cost of their medical benefits, redesigning retiree medical benefit plans to minimize cost impact on premiums, and discontinuing company-paid life insurance for retirees. As a result of these actions, we were required to remeasure the benefit obligations of the affected plans which resulted in the reduction of our U.S. pension obligation by $87 million and our obligation for other postretirement benefits by $529 million. The discount rate used to measure the benefit obligations of our U.S. salaried pension plans at February 28, 2007 and December 31, 2006 was 5.75%. The discount rate used to measure the benefit obligations of our U.S. salaried other postretirement benefit plans at February 28, 2007 was 5.50% compared to 5.75% at December 31, 2006.
Significant changes from our December 31, 2006 disclosures as a result of the changes described above include:
| • | | Decrease in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss of $131 million related to our U.S. pension plans. |
|
| • | | Decrease in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss of $535 million related to our other postretirement benefits. |

NOTE 8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
At March 31, 2007, we had binding commitments for raw materials and investments in land, buildings and equipment of approximately $1.5 million, and off-balance-sheet financial guarantees written and other commitments totaling $22 million.
Environmental Matters
We have recorded liabilities totaling $43 million for anticipated costs related to various environmental matters, primarily the remediation of numerous waste disposal sites and certain properties sold by us, at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006. Of these amounts, $10 million and $9 million was included in Other current liabilities at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. 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.

Workers’ Compensation
We have recorded liabilities, on a discounted basis, totaling $276 million and $269 million for anticipated costs related to workers’ compensation at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006. Of these amounts, $99 million and $106 million were included in Current Liabilities as part of Compensation and benefits at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, 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.
General and Product Liability and Other Litigation
We have recorded liabilities totaling $438 million and $454 million for potential product liability and other tort claims, including related legal fees expected to be incurred, presently asserted against us, at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. Of these amounts, $265 million and $260 million were included in Other current liabilities at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The amounts recorded were estimated on the basis of 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. We have recorded insurance receivables for potential product liability and other tort claims of $66 million at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006. Of these amounts, $7 million and $9 million was included in Current Assets as part of Accounts and notes receivable at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. We have restricted cash of $170 million and $193 million at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, to fund certain of these liabilities. During the quarter, $20 million of restricted cash became unrestricted.
Asbestos.We are a defendant in numerous lawsuits alleging various asbestos-related personal injuries purported to result from alleged exposure to certain asbestos 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 44,600 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, totaled approximately $276 million through March 31, 2007 and $272 million through December 31, 2006.
A summary of approximate asbestos claims activity in recent years 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 from period to period.

We engaged an independent asbestos valuation firm to review our existing reserves for pending claims, provide a reasonable estimate of the liability associated with unasserted asbestos claims, and determine our receivables from probable insurance recoveries.
We had recorded liabilities for both asserted and unasserted claims, inclusive of defense costs, totaling $125 million at March 31, 2007 and at December 31, 2006. The portion of the liability associated with unasserted asbestos claims was $60 million and $63 million at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. Our liability with respect to asserted claims and related defense costs was $65 million at March 31, 2007 and $62 million at December 31, 2006. At March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, we estimate that it is reasonably possible that our gross liabilities could

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
exceed our recorded reserve by up to $30 million and $25 million, respectively, approximately 50% of which would be recoverable by our accessible policy limits.
Based upon a model employed by the valuation firm, as of March 31, 2007 and as of December 31, 2006, (i) we had recorded a receivable related to asbestos claims of $66 million and (ii) we expect that approximately 50% of asbestos claim related losses would be recoverable up to our accessible policy limits through the period covered by the estimated liability. The receivable recorded 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. Of this amount, $7 million and $9 million was included in Current Assets as part of Accounts and notes receivable at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.
We believe that at March 31, 2007, we had at least $180 million in aggregate limits of excess level policies potentially applicable to indemnity payments for asbestos products claims, in addition to limits of available primary insurance policies. Some of these excess policies provide for payment of defense costs in addition to indemnity limits. A portion of the availability of the excess level policies is included in the $66 million insurance receivable recorded at March 31, 2007. We also had approximately $19 million in aggregate limits for products claims, as well as coverage for premise claims on a per occurrence basis and defense costs available with our primary insurance carriers through coverage-in-place agreements at March 31, 2007.
Heatway (Entran II).We have entered into a court approved amended settlement agreement that addresses claims against us involving a rubber hose product, Entran II. We had recorded liabilities related to Entran II claims totaling $213 million at March 31, 2007 and $217 million at December 31, 2006. As of March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006 we had approximately $170 million in restricted cash to fund these liabilities, which includes cash contributions we made to the settlement fund totaling $115 million through 2006. We will make additional cash contributions to the settlement fund of $15 million and $20 million in 2007 and 2008, respectively. In addition, we previously contributed approximately $174 million received from insurance contributions to the settlement fund. We expect that except for liabilities associated with actions in which we have received adverse judgments and sites that have opted-out of the amended settlement, our liability with respect to Entran II matters has been addressed by the amended settlement.
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. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings could occur. An unfavorable ruling could include monetary damages or an injunction prohibiting us from selling one or more products. If an unfavorable ruling were to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on the financial position and results of operations of the period in which the ruling occurs, or future periods.
Tax Matters
The calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations. We recognize 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 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, or that we are required to pay amounts in excess of our liabilities, our effective tax rate in a given period could be materially affected. An unfavorable tax settlement would require use of our cash and result in an increase in our effective tax rate in the year of resolution. A favorable tax settlement would be recognized as a reduction in our effective tax rate in the year of resolution.
Union Matters
On December 28, 2006, members of the United Steelworkers (“USW”) ratified the terms of a new master labor agreement ending a strike by the USW that began on October 5, 2006. The new agreement covers approximately 12,200 workers at 12 tire and Engineered Products plants in the United States. In connection with the master labor agreement, we also entered into
-17-
THE GOODYEAR TIRE & RUBBER COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
a memorandum of understanding with the USW regarding the establishment of an independent Voluntary Employees’ Beneficiary Association (“VEBA”) intended to provide healthcare benefits for current and future USW retirees. The establishment of the VEBA is conditioned upon U.S. District Court approval of a settlement of a declaratory judgment action to be filed by the USW pursuant to the memorandum of understanding. We have committed to contribute to the VEBA $1 billion, which will consist of at least $700 million in cash and an additional $300 million in cash or shares of our common stock at our option. We plan to make our contributions to the VEBA following the District Court’s approval of the settlement. In the event that the VEBA is not approved by the District Court (or if the approval of the District Court is subsequently reversed), the master labor agreement may be terminated by either us or the USW, and negotiations may be reopened on the entirety of the master labor agreement. In addition, if we do not receive the necessary regulatory approvals for the contribution of our common stock to the VEBA we have the right to terminate the master labor agreement and reopen negotiations.
Guarantees
We are a party to various agreements under which we have undertaken obligations resulting from the issuance of certain guarantees. Guarantees have been issued on behalf of certain of our affiliates and customers. Normally there is no separate premium received by us as consideration for the issuance of guarantees. Our performance under these guarantees would normally be triggered by the occurrence of one or more events as provided in the specific agreements. Collateral and recourse provisions available to us under these agreements were not significant. Refer to our Form 10-K for further discussions.

NOTE 10. INCOME TAXES
The Company adopted FIN No. 48 on January 1, 2007, which requires financial statement benefits to be recognized for positions taken for tax return purposes when it is more-likely-than-not that the position will be sustained. For additional information regarding FIN No. 48 refer to “Recently Issued Accounting Standards” in Note 1.
The adoption of FIN No. 48 resulted in a one-time increase to the opening balance of retained earnings and a decrease in goodwill as of January 1, 2007 of $32 million and $5 million, respectively, for tax benefits not previously recognized under historical practice.
As of January 1, 2007, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $161 million that if recognized, $143 million would have a favorable impact on our effective tax rate. The Company elected to continue to report interest and penalties as income taxes and has accrued interest as of January 1, 2007 of $10 million. We paid an audit assessment in the first quarter of 2007, which reduced the unrecognized tax benefits by $16 million and accrued interest by $5 million. If not favorably settled, $40 million of the remaining unrecognized tax benefits would require the use of our cash.
Generally years beginning after 2002 are still open to examination by foreign taxing authorities including several major taxing jurisdictions. In Germany we are still open to examination from 1998 onward. In the United States, we are still open to examination from 2004 forward.
We are involved in a United States / Canada Competent Authority resolution process that deals with transactions between our operations in these countries from 1997 through 2003. This proceeding should be concluded within the next two years.
It is expected that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change in the next 12 months; however we do not expect that change to have a significant impact on the results of operations or the financial position of the Company.

NOTE 11. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On March 23, 2007, we entered into an agreement to sell substantially all of the business activities and operations of our Engineered Products Business Segment (“Engineered Products”) to EPD Inc (“EPD”), a company controlled by Carlyle Partners IV, L.P., an affiliate of the Carlyle Group. The purchase price is approximately $1.5 billion in cash, subject to post closing adjustments. The closing of the transaction is subject to the receipt of antitrust and other governmental approvals and other customary closing conditions. In addition, the closing of the transaction is subject to EPD’s completion of a labor agreement with the USW.
As part of the transaction, we entered into a trademark licensing agreement with EPD, for a period of 12 years, to use the Goodyear brand and certain other trademarks in connection with the Engineered Products business.
Engineered Products operates 32 manufacturing facilities in 12 countries and has approximately 6,500 associates. Engineered Products manufactures and markets engineered rubber products for industrial, military, consumer and transportation original equipment end-users. Its product portfolio includes hoses, conveyor belts, power transmission products, rubber track, molded products and airsprings.
We expect to record a gain on the sale, the amount of which has not been finalized. As a result of entering into the agreement, we determined that the Engineered Products business should be classified as held-for-sale and in addition determined the operations of the Engineered Products business should be disclosed as discontinued operations. Accordingly, the accompanying financial information has been restated where required. Depreciation of Engineered Products’ properties and plants has been suspended effective March 24, 2007.

NOTE 12. CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Certain of our subsidiaries have guaranteed Goodyear’s obligations under the $650 million of Senior Secured Notes due 2011, the $400 million aggregate principal amount of 9% Senior Notes due 2015 and the $500 million aggregate principal amount of 8.625% Senior Notes due 2011 and $500 million aggregate principal amount of $500 million Senior Floating Rate Notes due 2009. 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 Indenture related to Goodyear’s obligations under the $650 million of Senior Secured Notes due 2011 ($450 million of 11% Senior Secured Notes due 2011 and $200 million Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes due 2011) and the Indenture related to Goodyear’s obligation under the $400 million aggregate principal amount of 9% Senior Notes due 2015, and the $500 million aggregate principal amount of 8.625% Senior Notes due 2011 and $500 million aggregate principal amount of $500 million Senior Floating Rate Notes due 2009 (the “Notes”); |

(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. Each entity in the consolidating financial information follows the same accounting policies as described in the consolidated financial statements, except for using the equity method of accounting to reflect ownership interests in subsidiaries which are eliminated upon consolidation.
Certain non-guarantor subsidiaries of the Parent Company are restricted from remitting funds to it by means of dividends, advances or loans, primarily due to restrictions in credit facility agreements entered into by those subsidiaries.
