Good morning and welcome to Cooper Tire & Rubber Company's Second Quarter Earnings Call and Webcast. At this time, all participants on the call are in listen-only mode. Later we will conduct a question-and-answer session and instructions will follow at that time. [Operator Instructions] As a reminder, this conference is being recorded.
