COOPER INDUSTRIES, LTD.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Accounting Policies
Basis
of Presentation The consolidated financial statements of Cooper Industries, Ltd., a
Bermuda company (Cooper), have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States.
The financial information presented as of any date other than December 31 has been prepared
from the books and records without audit. Financial information as of December 31 has been derived
from Coopers audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by
generally accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of management, all adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
information for the periods indicated, have been included. For further information regarding
Coopers accounting policies, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes for
the year ended December 31, 2006 included in Part IV of Coopers 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Impact of New Accounting Standards In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (the
Interpretation). The Interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes
recognized in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This
Interpretation prescribes a more-likely-than not recognition threshold that a tax position will be
sustained upon examination and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition of a
tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For Cooper, the Interpretation was
effective January 1, 2007. See Note 9 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Statement No. 157,
Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157). SFAS No. 157 provides enhanced guidance for using fair
value to measure assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 157 clarifies the principle that fair value
should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing the assets or
liabilities and establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those
assumptions. SFAS No. 157 applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or
liabilities to be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Cooper is currently evaluating the
impact of this Statement on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Statement 159, The Fair
Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS No. 159). SFAS No. 159 permits
companies to choose to measure many eligible recognized financial assets and financial liabilities,
financial instruments and certain other eligible items at fair value that are not currently
required to be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure
requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement
attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Cooper is currently
evaluating the impact of this Statement on its consolidated financial statements.
Note 2. Stock-Based Compensation
Cooper has a share-based compensation plan known as the Amended and Restated Stock Incentive
Plan (the Plan). The Plan provides for the granting of stock options, performance-based share
awards and restricted stock units. Since the original Plans inception in 1996, the aggregate
number of shares authorized under the Plan is 34 million. As of June 30, 2007, 3,260,332 shares
remain available for future grants under the Plan all of which are available for grants of stock
options, performance-based shares and restricted stock units. Total compensation expense for all
share-based compensation arrangements under the Plan was $19.0
-5-
million and $14.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006,
respectively. The total income tax benefit recognized in the income statement for all share-based
compensation arrangements under the Plan was $6.9 million and $5.0 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, Cooper granted
1,693,700 stock option awards, 540,080 performance-based shares and 237,400 restricted stock units.
Note 3. Acquisitions
Cooper completed four acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2007. These
acquisitions were selected because of their strategic fit with existing Cooper businesses or were
new strategic lines that were complementary to Coopers operations.
In January 2007, Cooper acquired WPI Interconnect Products (WPI) and Cybectec, Inc.
(Cybectec). WPI provides highly customized specification-grade connector technologies for use in
harsh, heavy-duty and hazardous locations in military, industrial and commercial applications.
Cybectec provides products and software systems that meet utilities most demanding real-time and
reliability requirements in a number of areas, including electrical power substation automation,
integration, communication and instrumentation. In March 2007, Cooper acquired Polaron plc, which
provides intelligent lighting control solutions for use in office, hospitality, educational and
urban outdoors settings that allow customers to realize energy savings, creative ambiance, or
enhanced productivity, safety and security. In May 2007, Cooper acquired MadahCom, Inc., a
manufacturer of secure wireless emergency control and mass notification systems.
Total consideration was $170.5 million for the four acquisitions, net of cash acquired,
including acquisition costs. The acquisitions resulted in the recognition of preliminary estimated
aggregate goodwill of $67.0 million.
Cooper makes an initial allocation of the purchase price as of the date of acquisition, based
on its understanding of the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired. The following table
summarizes the aggregate estimated preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and the
liabilities assumed at the acquisition date for the acquisitions completed during the six months
ended June 30, 2007:

Cooper continues to evaluate the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired during the
six months ended June 30, 2007 and will adjust the allocations as additional information relative
to the businesses becomes available for up to one year from the acquisition date.
In January 2006, Cooper acquired G&H Technology, Inc., a designer and manufacturer of
advanced, high-reliability connectors and interconnect devices used in aerospace, subsea, and
military and industrial applications for total consideration of $42.1 million. In February 2006,
Cooper acquired Wheelock, Inc., a designer and manufacturer of fire safety and emergency incident
communication systems and devices for total consideration of $44.5 million.

The results of operations are included in Coopers consolidated financial statements since the
date of acquisition. Pro-forma net income and earnings per share for the six months ended June 30,
2007 and 2006, assuming the acquisitions had been made at the beginning of the year, would not have
been materially different from reported results.

Note 5. Long-Term Debt
Coopers $300 million, 5.25% senior unsecured notes, which were issued in June 2002, matured
in July 2007. On June 18, 2007, Coopers wholly-owned subsidiary, Cooper US, Inc. issued $300
million of senior unsecured notes due in 2017. The fixed rate notes have an interest coupon of
6.10% and are guaranteed by Cooper and certain of its principal operating subsidiaries. Proceeds
from the financing were used to repay the maturing 5.25% notes. Combined with interest rate hedges
implemented in anticipation of the offering, the 6.10% notes will have an effective annual cost to
Cooper of 5.75 %. Cash and cash equivalents and long-term debt at June 30, 2007 were temporarily
increased as a result of this financing transaction.
Note 6. Shareholders Equity
On February 14, 2007, Cooper announced that the Board of Directors approved a two-for-one
stock split of Cooper common stock. The record date for the stock split was February 28, 2007 and
the distribution date was March 15, 2007. All share and per share information presented in this
Form 10-Q has been retroactively restated to reflect the effect of the stock split.
At June 30, 2007, 183,692,729 Class A common shares, $.01 par value were issued and
outstanding (excluding 27,195,002 Class A common shares held by wholly-owned subsidiaries) compared
to 182,282,042 Class A common shares, $.01 par value (excluding 25,876,802 Class A common shares
held by wholly-owned subsidiaries) at December 31, 2006. During the six months ended June 30,
2007, Cooper issued 2,968,887 Class A common shares primarily in connection with employee incentive
and benefit plans and Coopers dividend reinvestment program. During the six months ended June 30,
2007, Cooper and its wholly-owned subsidiaries purchased 1,558,200 Class A common shares for $74.0
million under the Companys share repurchase plan. The share purchases are recorded by Coopers
wholly-owned subsidiaries as an investment in its parent company that is eliminated in
consolidation.
A wholly-owned subsidiary also owns all the issued and outstanding Class B common shares. The
subsidiarys investment in the Class B common shares is eliminated in consolidation. If at any
time a dividend is declared and paid on the Class A common shares, a like dividend shall be
declared and paid on the Class B common shares in an equal amount per share. During the first six
months of 2007, Coopers wholly-owned subsidiaries received the regular quarterly dividend of $.21
per share (or an aggregate of $57.3 million) on all Class A and Class B common shares held.

On February 14, 2007, Coopers Board of Directors increased the annual dividend rate of
Coopers common stock by $.10 per share to $.84.

Note 8. Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits
During June 2006, Cooper announced that, effective January 1, 2007, future benefit accruals
would cease under the Cooper U. S. Salaried Pension Plan. Benefits earned through December 31,
2006 remain in each participants Salaried Pension Plan account. The account balance will
continue to earn interest credits until a participant is eligible for and elects to receive the
plan benefit. Cooper recognized a curtailment loss of $4.2 million in the second quarter of 2006 as
a result of this action. Beginning in 2007, Cooper contributes cash equal to 3% of compensation to
the Retirement Savings and Stock-Ownership Plan (CO-SAV). Cooper further increased the
company-matching contribution under the CO-SAV plan to a dollar-for-dollar match up to 6% of
employee contributions.
Cooper also announced the elimination of postretirement life insurance for active employees,
effective January 1, 2007. As a result, Cooper recognized a curtailment gain of $3.2 million in
the second quarter of 2006.

Note 9. Income Taxes
The effective tax rate was 10.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 25.5% for the six
months ended June 30, 2006. As discussed below, the 2007 second quarter includes a $63.5 million
reduction of income taxes expense. Excluding the reduction, Coopers effective tax rate for the
six months ended June 30, 2007 was 27.2%. The increase is primarily related to increased taxable
earnings in 2007 without a corresponding increase in projected tax benefits.
The United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) challenged Coopers treatment of gains and
interest deductions claimed on its 2000 through 2003 federal income tax returns, relating to
transactions involving government securities. If the proposed adjustments were upheld, it would
require Cooper to pay approximately $93.7 million in taxes plus accrued interest. During the
second quarter of 2007, the IRS and Cooper finalized a settlement regarding these transactions.
On February 1, 2007, the IRS issued its examination report for the 2002-2004 tax years. In
addition to the finding related to transactions involving government securities discussed above,
the IRS challenged Coopers treatment of certain interest payments made during these years to a
subsidiary. If the proposed adjustments were upheld, it would require Cooper to pay approximately $140 million of federal
withholding
-9-
tax plus accrued interest. On May 2, 2007, the IRS issued a letter to Cooper accepting
Coopers position regarding treatment of these interest payments for the 2002 through 2004 tax
years.
As a result of the settlements discussed above, Cooper recognized $55.7 million of previously
unrecognized tax benefits in the 2007 second quarter. A change in rates for the Texas margin tax
and other developments in the 2007 second quarter represented the remaining $7.8 million of income
taxes expense reduction.
In addition to the items discussed above, Cooper believes it is reasonably possible that
additional tax benefits could be recognized within the next 12 months as various tax audits are
concluded and statutes expire. However, an estimate of the range of these benefits cannot be made.
The Internal Revenue Service has begun an examination of Coopers 2005 Federal income tax
return and Cooper is under examination by various United States State and Local taxing authorities
as well as various taxing authorities in other countries. Cooper is no longer subject to U.S.
Federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2005, and with few
exceptions, Cooper is no longer subject to State and Local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by
tax authorities for years before 1999. Cooper fully cooperates with all audits, but defends
existing positions vigorously. These audits are in various stages of completion. To provide for
potential tax exposures, Cooper maintains a liability for unrecognized tax benefits, which
management believes is adequate. The results of future audit assessments, if any, could have a
material effect on Coopers cash flows as these audits are completed.
Cooper adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income Taxes, on January 1, 2007. As a result of the implementation of Interpretation 48, the
Company recognized a $27.2 million increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, which
was accounted for as a reduction of the January 1, 2007 beginning retained earnings balance. A
reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

The $71.1 million of unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would favorably impact the
effective tax rate.
Cooper recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in
income taxes expense. During the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, Cooper recognized $1.6
million and $2.4 million in interest and penalties, respectively. Cooper had $12.1 million and
$14.4 million in interest and penalties accrued at June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Note 10. Net Income Per Common Share
On February 14, 2007, Cooper announced that the Board of Directors approved a two-for-one
stock split of Cooper common stock. The record date for the stock split was February 28, 2007 and
the distribution date was March 15, 2007. All share and per share information presented in this
Form 10-Q has been retroactively restated to reflect the effect of the stock split.

Charge Related to Discontinued Operations |
In October 1998, Cooper sold its Automotive Products business to Federal-Mogul Corporation
(Federal-Mogul). These discontinued businesses (including the Abex product line obtained from
Pneumo-Abex Corporation (Pneumo) in 1994) were operated through subsidiary companies, and the
stock of those subsidiaries was sold to Federal-Mogul pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement
dated August 17, 1998 (1998 Agreement). In conjunction with the sale, Federal-Mogul indemnified
Cooper for certain liabilities of these subsidiary companies, including liabilities related to the
Abex product line and any potential liability that Cooper may have to Pneumo pursuant to a 1994
Mutual Guaranty Agreement between Cooper and Pneumo. On October 1, 2001, Federal-Mogul and several
of its affiliates filed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition and indicated that Federal-Mogul may not
honor the indemnification obligations to Cooper. As of the date of this filing, Federal-Mogul had
not rejected the 1998 Agreement, which includes the indemnification to Cooper. If Federal-Mogul
rejects the 1998 Agreement, Cooper will be relieved of its future obligations under the 1998
Agreement, including specific indemnities relating to payment of taxes and certain obligations
regarding insurance for its former Automotive Products businesses. To the extent Cooper is
obligated to Pneumo for any asbestos-related claims arising from the Abex product line (Abex
Claims), Cooper has rights, confirmed by Pneumo, to significant insurance for such claims. Based
on information provided by representatives of Federal-Mogul and recent claims experience, from
August 28, 1998 through June 30, 2007, a total of 142,721 Abex Claims were filed, of which 111,084
claims have been resolved leaving 31,637 Abex Claims pending at June 30, 2007, that are the
responsibility of Federal-Mogul. During the three months ended June 30, 2007, 474 claims were
filed and 444 claims were resolved. Since August 28, 1998, the average indemnity payment for
resolved Abex Claims was $2,073 before insurance. A total of $117.7 million was spent on defense
costs for the period August 28, 1998 through June 30, 2007. Historically, existing insurance
coverage has provided 50% to 80% of the total defense and indemnity payments for Abex Claims.
However, insurance recovery is currently at a lower percentage (approximately 30%) due to
exhaustion of primary layers of coverage and litigation with certain excess insurers.
With the assistance of independent advisors, Bates White, LLC, in the fourth quarter of 2001
Cooper completed a thorough analysis of its potential exposure for asbestos liabilities in the
event Federal-Mogul rejects the 1998 Agreement. Based on Coopers analysis of its contingent
liability exposure resulting from Federal-Moguls bankruptcy, Cooper concluded that an additional
fourth-quarter 2001 discontinued operations provision of $30 million after-tax was appropriate to
reflect the potential net impact of this issue.
Throughout 2003, Cooper worked towards resolution of the indemnification issues and future
handling of the Abex-related claims within the Federal-Mogul bankruptcy proceedings. This included
negotiations with the representatives of Federal-Mogul, its bankruptcy committees and the future
claimants (the Representatives) regarding participation in Federal-Moguls proposed 524(g)
asbestos trust. Based on the status of the negotiations in 2004, Cooper concluded that it was
probable that Federal-Mogul would reject the 1998 Agreement. Cooper also concluded that the
Representatives would require any negotiated settlement through the Federal-Mogul bankruptcy to be
at the high end of the Bates White, LLC liability analysis and with substantially lower insurance
recovery assumptions and higher administrative costs.
During late February and early March 2004, Cooper reassessed the accrual required based on the
then current status of the negotiations with the Representatives and the liability and insurance
receivable that would be required to be recorded if this matter is not settled within the
Federal-Mogul bankruptcy. Cooper concluded that resolution within the Federal-Mogul proposed
524(g) asbestos trust would likely be within the range of the liabilities, net of insurance
recoveries, that Cooper would accrue if this matter were not settled within the Federal-Mogul
bankruptcy. Accordingly, Cooper recorded a $126.0 million after-tax discontinued operations charge,
net of a $70.9 income tax benefit, in the fourth quarter of 2003.
In December 2005, Cooper announced that the Company and other parties involved in the
resolution of the Federal-Mogul bankruptcy proceeding had reached an agreement regarding Coopers
participation in Federal Moguls proposed 524 (g) asbestos trust. By participating in this trust,
Cooper would resolve its liability for asbestos claims arising from Coopers former Abex Friction
Products business. The proposed settlement agreement was subject to court approval, approval of 75
percent of the current Abex asbestos
-12-
claimants and certain other approvals. The settlement would resolve more than 38,000 pending
Abex Claims as of December 31, 2005. Future claims would be resolved through the bankruptcy trust,
and Cooper would be protected against future claims by an injunction to be issued by the district
court upon plan confirmation.
Key terms and aspects of the proposed settlement agreement included Cooper agreeing to pay
$130 million in cash into the trust, with $115 million payable upon Federal-Moguls emergence from
bankruptcy. The remainder would be due on January 15, 2007, or upon emergence from bankruptcy, if
later. Cooper would receive a total of $37.5 million during the funding period from other parties
associated with the Federal-Mogul bankruptcy. Cooper would further provide the trust 1.4 million
shares of Cooper common stock upon Federal-Moguls emergence from bankruptcy.
The proposed settlement agreement also provided for further payments by Cooper subject to the
amount and timing of insurance proceeds. Cooper agreed to make 25 annual payments of up to $20
million each, reduced by certain insurance proceeds received by the trust. In years that the
insurance proceeds exceed $17 million, Cooper would be required to contribute $3 million with the
excess insurance proceeds carried over to the next year. The trust would retain 10 percent of the
insurance proceeds for indemnity claims paid by the trust until Coopers obligation is satisfied
and would retain 15 percent thereafter. The agreement also provided for Cooper to receive the
insurance proceeds related to indemnity and defense costs paid prior to the date a stay of current
claims is entered by the bankruptcy court. Cooper would also be required to forego certain claims
and objections in the Federal-Mogul bankruptcy proceedings. In addition, the parties involved had
agreed to petition the court for a stay on all current claims outstanding.
Although the payments related to the settlement could extend to 25 years and the collection of
insurance proceeds could extend beyond 25 years, the liability and insurance would be undiscounted
on Coopers balance sheet as the amount of the actual annual payments is not reasonably
predictable.
A critical term of the proposed settlement was the issuance of a preliminary injunction
staying all pending Abex asbestos claims. At a hearing on January 20, 2006, other parties to the
bankruptcy proceedings were unable to satisfy the courts requirements to grant the required
preliminary injunction. As a result, the proposed settlement agreement required renegotiation of
certain terms. The final determination of whether Cooper will participate in the Federal-Mogul
524(g) trust was unknown. However, Cooper management concluded that, at the date of the filing of
its 2005 Form 10-K, the most likely outcome in the range of potential outcomes was a revised
settlement approximating the December 2005 proposed settlement. Accordingly, Cooper recorded a
$227.2 million after-tax discontinued operations charge, net of a $127.8 million income tax
benefit, in the fourth quarter of 2005.
The fourth quarter 2005 charge to discontinued operations included payments to a 524(g) trust
over 25 years that were undiscounted, and the insurance recoveries only included recoveries where
insurance in place agreements, settlements or policy recoveries were probable. If the negotiations
with the Representatives in early 2004 had resulted in an agreement, Cooper would have paid all the
consideration when Federal-Mogul emerged from bankruptcy and the 524(g) trust was formed and would
have relinquished all rights to insurance. The lack of discounting and the limited recognition of
insurance recoveries in the fourth quarter 2005 charge to discontinued operations were a
significant component of the increase in the accrual for discontinued operations. While it is not
possible to quantify, the accrual for discontinued operations also includes a premium for resolving
the inherent uncertainty associated with resolving Abex claims through the tort system. If Cooper
is unable to reach a settlement to participate in the Federal-Mogul 524(g) trust, the accrual for
discontinued operations potentially may have to be reduced to the estimated liability and related
insurance recoveries through the tort system. There are numerous assumptions that are required to
project the liability in the tort system and Cooper has not completed the analysis and determined
the liability that would be recorded under this scenario.
Cooper, through Pneumo-Abex LLC, has access to Abex insurance policies with remaining limits
on policies with solvent insurers in excess of $750 million. Cooper included insurance recoveries
of approximately $215 million pre-tax in the fourth quarter 2005 charge to discontinued operations
discussed above. Cooper believes that it is likely that additional insurance recoveries will be
recorded in the future as
-13-
new insurance in place agreements are consummated and settlements with insurance carriers are
completed. However, extensive litigation with the insurance carriers may be required to receive
those additional recoveries.
On July 7, 2006, Cooper announced a revised agreement had been reached regarding Coopers
participation in Federal-Moguls 524(g) trust. The revised proposed settlement agreement remains
subject to court approval and to certain other approvals.
Key terms and aspects of the revised proposed settlement agreement include Cooper agreeing to
pay $256 million in cash into the trust on the date Federal-Mogul emerges from bankruptcy, which
includes elimination of the contribution of 1.4 million common shares to the trust by increasing
the cash contribution. Removing Cooper common stock as a component of the revised settlement
agreement eliminates additional charges and reversals of charges that may have occurred to account
for any changes in the market value of Cooper stock. Cooper has or will receive $37.5 million from
other parties toward its cash obligation.
As in the December 2005 agreement, Cooper has agreed to make 25 annual payments of up to $20
million each to the trust with such payments being reduced by insurance proceeds. The minimum
annual payment of $3 million in the December 2005 agreement has been eliminated. However, Cooper
has agreed to make advances, beginning in 2015 through 2021, in the event the trust is unable to
pay outstanding qualified claims at 100 percent of the value provided for in the trust agreement.
In the event that advances are made by Cooper, they will accrue interest at 5 percent per annum,
and will be repaid in years where excess funds are available in the trust or credited against the
future year annual payments. The maximum advances are $36.6 million.
Cooper will pay all defense costs through the date Federal-Mogul emerges from bankruptcy and
will be reimbursed for indemnity payments to the extent such payments are eligible for payment from
the trust. Cooper will retain the rights to receive the insurance proceeds related to indemnity
and defense costs paid prior to the date Federal-Mogul emerges from bankruptcy. For claims paid by
the trust, the trust will retain 10 percent of any reimbursed insurance proceeds for the first 25
years and thereafter will retain 15 percent.
As in the December 2005 proposed agreement, Cooper will forego certain claims and objections
in the Federal-Mogul bankruptcy proceedings. However, under the revised proposed agreement, which
is subject to court approval, in the event that Coopers participation in the Federal-Mogul 524(g)
trust is not approved for any reason, Cooper would receive a cash payment of $138 million on the
date Federal-Mogul emerges from bankruptcy and 20 percent of any insurance policy settlements
related to the former Wagner business purchased by Federal-Mogul in 1998. If Cooper participates
in the trust, it will receive 12 percent of any Wagner insurance settlements.
Accordingly, Cooper recorded a $20.3 million after-tax discontinued operations charge, net of
an $11.4 million income tax benefit, in the second quarter of 2006.
The revised proposed settlement agreement was incorporated into Federal-Moguls Fourth Amended
Joint Plan of Reorganization filed on November 21, 2006.
On February 2, 2007, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware approved the
adequacy of Federal-Moguls Supplemental Disclosure Statement describing the Fourth Amended Joint
Plan of Reorganization. The Court also approved the Voting Procedures and ordered that the voting
period would expire on April 6, 2007. At a hearing on April 13, Federal-Mogul announced that the
Abex settlement had received a favorable vote of approximately 94%, well in excess of the required
vote. In addition, any objections to the Fourth Amended Plan were filed with the Court by April
24, 2007 and the hearing on confirmation of the Plan was completed on July 10, 2007. The Court has
established dates through October 1, 2007 for final briefs and hearings. If the Plan is confirmed,
Federal-Mogul could emerge from bankruptcy by year-end 2007.
-14-
From a cash flow perspective, Cooper management continues to believe that a settlement on the
terms of the revised agreement would allow Cooper to continue to grow through acquisitions and
return cash to shareholders through dividends and stock repurchases. The settlement agreement
remains subject to bankruptcy court approval and other matters. At this time, the exact manner in
which this issue will be resolved is not known. The accrual for potential liabilities related to
the Automotive Products sale and the Federal-Mogul bankruptcy was $543.0 million at June 30, 2007
and $529.6 million at December 31, 2006.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 Compared With Three Months Ended June 30, 2006
Income from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2007 was $209.2 million on
revenues of $1,463.7 million compared with 2006 second quarter income from continuing operations of
$119.8 million on revenues of $1,287.8 million. Second quarter diluted earnings per share from
continuing operations increased to $1.12 in 2007 from $.64 in 2006. Second quarter 2007 diluted
earnings per share from continuing operations included $63.5 million or $.34 per share of income
tax adjustments.
Revenues:
Revenues for the second quarter of 2007 increased 14% compared to the second quarter of 2006.
The impact of acquisitions and currency translation increased reported revenues by approximately 6%
for the quarter.
Electrical Products segment revenues increased 15% compared to the second quarter of 2006.
The impact of acquisitions increased revenues over 4% for the quarter and favorable currency
translation increased reported revenues by less than 2% for the quarter. Increased revenues were
driven by strong demand from utility and industrial markets, continued international growth, and
solid demand from U.S. nonresidential construction. These increases were partially offset by the
soft U.S. residential markets.
Tools segment revenues for the second quarter of 2007 increased 4% from the second quarter of
2006. Favorable currency translation increased revenues by approximately 3% for the quarter.
Solid demand from aerospace and increased penetration in the retail channels was offset by soft
demand from motor vehicle end markets and soft U.S. residential markets.
Costs and Expenses:
Cost of sales, as a percentage of revenues, was 67.0% for the second quarter of 2007 compared
to 67.6% for the comparable 2006 quarter. The decline in cost of sales percentage resulted from
leverage of fixed costs on higher volume, and execution on productivity improvements initiatives.
Electrical Products segment cost of sales, as a percentage of revenues, was 67.1% for the
second quarter of 2007 compared to 67.3% for the second quarter 2006. Cost of sales as a
percentage of revenues was down slightly year over year due to benefits realized through
productivity initiatives and production leverage on higher volume, partially offset by the dilutive
impact of acquisitions. Tools segment cost of sales, as a percentage of revenues, was 68.6% for
the second quarter of 2007 compared to 69.4% for the second quarter of 2006. The decrease in the
cost of sales percentage was driven by benefits realized from productivity.
Selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of revenues, for the second quarter of
2007 were 18.4% compared to 19.0% for the second quarter of 2006. The decline was due to leverage
on higher sales and cost reductions from productivity initiatives.
Electrical Products segment selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of revenues,
for the second quarter of 2007 were 16.1% compared to 16.6% for the second quarter of 2006. The
decline resulted from sales volumes leverage and productivity initiatives.
Tools segment selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of revenues, for the second
quarter of 2007 were 20.1% compared to 20.0% for the second quarter of 2006. The increase in
selling and administrative expenses percentage was the result of productivity efforts only
partially offsetting inflation.
-22-
Interest expense, net for the second quarter of 2007 increased $0.5 million from the 2006
second quarter, primarily as a result of higher average interest rates on borrowings. Average debt
balances were $1.07 billion and $1.03 billion and average interest rates were 5.8% and 5.6% during
the second quarter of 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Operating Earnings:
Electrical Products segment second quarter 2007 operating earnings increased 21% to $213.9
million from $177.5 million for the same quarter of last year. The increase was a result of
leverage on fixed costs from higher volumes, price realization offsetting production material cost
inflation and the impact of productivity improvement initiatives.
Tools segment second quarter 2007 operating earnings increased 10% to $21.6 million compared
to $19.6 million in the second quarter of 2006. The increase primarily reflects operating
efficiencies through productivity gains.
General Corporate expense decreased $1.7 million to $22.2 million during the second quarter of
2007 compared to $23.9 million during the second quarter of 2006. This decrease primarily resulted
from the receipt of $3.3 million under an agreement with Belden, partially offset by incremental
legal costs.
Income Taxes:
The effective tax rate was (4.4)% for the second quarter of 2007 and 25.5% for the second
quarter of 2006. The rate decrease is due to a $63.5 million reduction of income tax expense in
the second quarter of 2007. Cooper finalized settlements with the Internal Revenue Service related
to the 2000 through 2004 tax years in the 2007 second quarter. Previously unrecognized tax
benefits of $55.7 million were therefore recognized in the quarter. A change in rates for the
Texas margin tax and other developments in the 2007 second quarter represented the remaining $7.8
million of income tax expense reduction. Excluding the reduction, Coopers effective tax rate for
the three months ended June 30, 2007 was 27.3%. The increase is primarily related to increased
taxable earnings in 2007 without a corresponding increase in projected tax benefits.
Charge Related to Discontinued Operations:
In the second quarter of 2006, Cooper recorded an additional charge of $20.3 million, net of
an $11.4 million income tax benefit (or $.11 per diluted share) related to potential asbestos
obligations regarding the Automotive Products segment which was sold in 1998. See Note 12 of the
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 Compared With Six Months Ended June 30, 2006
Income from continuing operations for the first six months of 2007 was $341.1 million on
revenues of $2,857.7 million compared with 2006 first half income from continuing operations of
$227.5 million on revenues of $2,528.7 million. First half diluted earnings per share from
continuing operations increased to $1.83 in 2007 from $1.21 in 2006. First half 2007 diluted
earnings per share from continuing operations included $63.5 million or $.34 per share of income
tax adjustments.
Revenues:
Revenues for the first six months of 2007 increased 13% compared to the first six months of
2006. The impact of acquisitions and currency translation increased revenues by approximately 5%.
-23-
Electrical Products segment revenues for the first six months of 2007 increased 15% compared
to the first half of 2006. The impact of acquisitions increased revenue by 4% and currency
translation had a 1% favorable effect on revenues in the first half of the year. Sales growth was
a result of strong demand from the utility and industrial markets, international expansion, and
solid demand from U.S. nonresidential construction. The soft U.S. residential markets partially
offset these gains.
Tools segment revenues for the first six months of 2007 increased 3% compared to the first
half of 2006. Currency translation impact on revenues for the first six months of 2007 was nearly
3%. Sales increases driven by solid demand from aerospace were offset by soft demand within the
motor vehicle end markets and soft U.S. residential markets.
Costs and Expenses:
Cost of sales, as a percentage of revenues, was 67.4% for the first six months of 2007
compared to 67.9% for the comparable 2006 period. The decrease in the cost of sales percentage was
primarily a result of fixed cost leverage on higher volume and benefits from productivity
improvements initiatives.
Electrical Products segment cost of sales, as a percentage of revenues, was 67.5% for the
first six months of 2007 compared to 67.6% for the first half of 2006. The decrease in the cost of
sales percentage was primarily the result of productivity initiatives and production leverage on
higher volume, partially offset by the dilutive impact of acquisitions.
Tools segment cost of sales, as a percentage of revenues, was 67.9% for the first half of 2007
compared to 69.8% for the same period of 2006. The decrease in cost of sales percentage reflects
operating efficiency gains from productivity improvements.
Selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of revenues, for the first six months of
2007 were 18.4% compared to 19.1% for the first half of 2006. The decrease is due to leverage on
higher sales and cost reductions from productivity initiatives.
Electrical Products segment selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of revenues,
for the first six months of 2007 were 16.1% compared to 16.8% for the first half of 2006. The
decrease in selling and administrative expenses percentage is primarily due to sales volume
leverage and productivity initiatives.
Tools segment selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of revenues, for the first
six months of 2007 were 20.5% compared to 20.1% for the first six months of 2006. The increase in
the selling and administrative expenses percentage is primarily due to productivity only partially
offsetting inflation.
Interest expense, net for the first six months of 2007 increased $1.3 million from the 2006
first six months as a result of higher average interest rates. Average debt balances were $1.05
billion and $1.03 billion and average interest rates were 5.8% and 5.6% for the first six months of
2007 and 2006, respectively.
Operating Earnings:
Electrical Products segment first half 2007 operating earnings increased 21% to $407.4 million
from $337.6 million for the same period of last year. The increase was primarily due to sales
volume leverage and productivity initiatives.
Tools segment first half 2007 operating earnings increased 18% to $43.4 million compared to
$36.9 million in the same period of 2006. The increase reflects productivity gains.
General Corporate expense decreased $0.9 million to $43.8 million during the first six months
of 2007 compared to $44.7 million during the same period of 2006. This decrease primarily resulted
from the receipt of $3.3 million under an agreement with Belden, partially offset by incremental
legal costs.
-24-
Income Taxes:
The effective tax rate was 10.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 25.5% for the six
months ended June 30, 2006. The rate decrease is primarily related to a 2007 second quarter $63.5
million reduction of income tax expense. Cooper finalized settlements with the Internal Revenue
Service related to the 2000 through 2004 tax years in the 2007 second quarter. Previously
unrecognized tax benefits of $55.7 million were therefore recognized in the quarter. A change in
rates for the Texas margin tax and other developments in the 2007 second quarter represented the
remaining $7.8 million of income tax expense reduction. Excluding the reduction, Coopers
effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was 27.2%. The increase is primarily
related to increased taxable earnings in 2007 without a corresponding increase in projected tax
benefits.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity:
Coopers operating working capital (defined as receivables and inventories less accounts
payable) increased $214 million during the first six months of 2007. The increase included a $167
million increase in receivables and a $58 million increase in inventories, partially offset by a
$11 million increase in accounts payable, which were all driven by increased sales volume and the
impact of 2007 acquisitions. The increase in inventories was partially offset by an $11 million
increase in the allowance for excess and obsolete inventories. Operating working capital turnover
(defined as annualized revenues divided by average quarterly operating working capital) for the
first six months of 2007 of 5.0 turns increased from 4.9 turns in the same period of 2006 and was
primarily due to revenues growing at a higher rate than operating working capital. Cooper
continues to execute productivity initiatives focused on improving its working capital position.
Cash provided by operating activities was $209 million for the first six months of 2007. This
cash, plus $314 million of proceeds from debt issuances and $50 million of cash received from
employee stock option exercise activity were primarily used to fund capital expenditures of $56
million, acquisitions of $171 million, dividends of $78 million, debt repayments of $3 million and
share purchases of $74 million.
Cash provided by operating activities was $176 million during the first six months of 2006.
This cash, plus an additional $103 million of cash and cash equivalents and $70 million of cash
received from employee stock option exercise activity were primarily used to fund capital
expenditures of $40 million, acquisitions of $84 million, dividends of $69 million and share
purchases of $185 million.
In connection with acquisitions accounted for as purchases, Cooper records, to the extent
appropriate, accruals for the costs of closing duplicate facilities, severing redundant personnel
and integrating the acquired businesses into existing Cooper operations. Cash flows from operating
activities are reduced by the amounts expended against the various accruals established in
connection with each acquisition. Spending against these accruals was $6.3 million during the six
months ended June 30, 2006. All spending related to the accruals was completed as of December 31,
2006.
Cooper currently anticipates a continuation of its long-term ability to annually generate in
excess of $300 million in cash flow available for acquisitions, debt repayments and common stock
repurchases.
As discussed in Note 12 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, Cooper has reached
a revised agreement with the Representatives of Federal-Mogul, its bankruptcy committees and the
future claimants regarding settlement of Coopers contingent liabilities related to the Automotive
Products sale to Federal-Mogul. Cooper anticipates that any settlement would be funded from
operating cash flows, existing cash and commercial paper proceeds (if required).
-25-
Capital Resources:
Cooper targets a 30% to 40% debt-to-total capitalization ratio. Excess cash flows are
utilized to fund acquisitions or to purchase shares of Cooper common stock. Coopers debt-to-total
capitalization ratio was 32.3% at June 30, 2007, 28.9% at December 31, 2006 and 30.8% at June 30,
2006.
At June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, Cooper had cash and cash equivalents of $640.0 million
and $423.5 million, respectively. At June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, Cooper had short-term
debt of $8.7 million and $5.0 million, respectively, and no commercial paper outstanding.
Coopers practice is to back up its short-term debt balance with a combination of cash and
committed credit facilities. At June 30, 2007, Cooper had a $500 million committed credit facility,
which matures in November 2009. Short-term debt to the extent not backed up by cash, reduces the
amount of additional liquidity provided by the committed credit facility.
The credit facility agreement is not subject to termination based on a decrease in Coopers
debt ratings or a material adverse change clause. The principal financial covenants in the
agreement limit Coopers debt-to-total capitalization ratio to 60% and require Cooper to maintain a
minimum earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization to interest
ratio of 3 to 1. Cooper is in compliance with all covenants set forth in the credit facility
agreement.
Coopers access to the commercial paper market could be adversely affected by a change in the
credit ratings assigned to its commercial paper. Should Coopers access to the commercial paper
market be adversely affected due to a change in its credit ratings, Cooper would rely on a
combination of available cash and its committed credit facility to provide short-term funding. The
committed credit facility does not contain any provision, which makes its availability to Cooper
dependent on Coopers credit ratings.
Coopers $300 million, 5.25% senior unsecured notes, which were issued in June 2002, matured
in July 2007. On June 18, 2007, Coopers wholly-owned subsidiary, Cooper US, Inc. issued $300
million of senior unsecured notes due in 2017. The fixed rate notes have an interest coupon of
6.10%. Proceeds from the financing were used to repay the maturing 5.25% notes. Combined with
interest rate hedges implemented in anticipation of the offering, the 6.10% notes will have an
effective annual cost to Cooper of 5.75 %. Cash and cash equivalents and long-term debt at June
30, 2007 were temporarily increased as a result of this financing transaction.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Aggregate Contractual Obligations
As of June 30, 2007, there have been no material changes to Coopers off-balance sheet
arrangements and contractual obligations as described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2006.
Backlog
Sales backlog represents the dollar amount of all firm open orders for which all terms and
conditions pertaining to the sale have been approved such that a future sale is reasonably
expected. Sales backlog by segment was as follows:

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
See Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act Safe Harbor Statement
This Form 10-Q includes certain forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements
reflect Coopers expectations, objectives and goals with respect to future events and financial
performance, and are based on assumptions and estimates which Cooper believes are reasonable.
Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, any statements regarding future
revenues, cost and expenses, earnings, earnings per share, margins, cash flows, dividends and
capital expenditures. Cooper wishes to caution readers not to put undue reliance on these
statements and that actual results could differ materially from anticipated results. Important
factors which may affect the actual results include, but are not limited to, the resolution of
Federal-Moguls bankruptcy proceedings, political developments, market and economic conditions,
changes in raw material, transportation, and energy costs, industry competition, the ability to
execute and realize the expected benefits from strategic initiatives including revenue growth plans
and cost-control and productivity improvement programs, the magnitude of any disruptions from
manufacturing rationalizations and the implementation of the Enterprise Business System, changes in
mix of products sold, mergers and acquisitions and their integration into Cooper, the timing and
amount of any stock repurchases by Cooper, changes in financial markets including currency exchange
rate fluctuations and changing legislation and regulations including changes in tax law, tax
treaties or tax regulations. The forward-looking statements contained in this report are intended
to qualify for the safe harbor provisions of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, Coopers management, under the supervision
and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, performed an
evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Coopers disclosure controls and
procedures. Based on that evaluation, Coopers management, including the Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
There have been no significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could
significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date of this evaluation.
Cooper is executing a multi-year plan of implementing an Enterprise Business System (EBS)
globally. Implementing an EBS system on a global basis involves significant changes in business
processes. The implementation is phased, which reduces the risks associated with making these
changes. In addition, Cooper is taking the necessary steps to monitor and maintain appropriate
internal controls during the implementations.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Cooper is subject to various suits, legal proceedings and claims that arise in the normal
course of business. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters with
certainty, management is of the opinion that their ultimate disposition should not have a material
adverse effect on Coopers financial statements.
In October 1998, Cooper sold its Automotive Products business to Federal-Mogul Corporation
(Federal-Mogul). These discontinued businesses (including the Abex product line obtained from
Pneumo-Abex Corporation (Pneumo) in 1994) were operated through subsidiary companies, and the
stock of those subsidiaries was sold to Federal-Mogul pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement
dated August 17, 1998 (1998 Agreement). In conjunction with the sale, Federal-Mogul indemnified
Cooper for certain liabilities of these subsidiary companies, including liabilities related to the
Abex product line and any potential liability that Cooper may have to Pneumo pursuant to a 1994
Mutual Guaranty Agreement between Cooper and Pneumo. On October 1, 2001, Federal-Mogul and several
of its affiliates filed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition and indicated that Federal-Mogul may not
honor the indemnification obligations to Cooper. As of the date of this filing, Federal-Mogul had
not rejected the 1998 Agreement, which includes the indemnification to Cooper. If Federal-Mogul
rejects the 1998 Agreement, Cooper will be relieved of its future obligations under the 1998
Agreement, including specific indemnities relating to payment of taxes and certain obligations
regarding insurance for its former Automotive Products businesses. To the extent Cooper is
obligated to Pneumo for any asbestos-related claims arising from the Abex product line (Abex
Claims), Cooper has rights, confirmed by Pneumo, to significant insurance for such claims. Based
on information provided by representatives of Federal-Mogul and recent claims experience, from
August 28, 1998 through June 30, 2007, a total of 142,721 Abex Claims were filed, of which 111,084
claims have been resolved leaving 31,637 Abex Claims pending at June 30, 2007, that are the
responsibility of Federal-Mogul. During the three months ended June 30, 2007, 474 claims were
filed and 444 claims were resolved. Since August 28, 1998, the average indemnity payment for
resolved Abex Claims was $2,073 before insurance. A total of $117.7 million was spent on defense
costs for the period August 28, 1998 through June 30, 2007. Historically, existing insurance
coverage has provided 50% to 80% of the total defense and indemnity payments for Abex Claims.
However, insurance recovery is currently at a lower percentage (approximately 30%) due to
exhaustion of primary layers of coverage and litigation with certain excess insurers.
With the assistance of independent advisors, Bates White, LLC, in the fourth quarter of 2001
Cooper completed a thorough analysis of its potential exposure for asbestos liabilities in the
event Federal-Mogul rejects the 1998 Agreement. Based on Coopers analysis of its contingent
liability exposure resulting from Federal-Moguls bankruptcy, Cooper concluded that an additional
fourth-quarter 2001 discontinued operations provision of $30 million after-tax was appropriate to
reflect the potential net impact of this issue.
Throughout 2003, Cooper worked towards resolution of the indemnification issues and future
handling of the Abex-related claims within the Federal-Mogul bankruptcy proceedings. This included
negotiations with the representatives of Federal-Mogul, its bankruptcy committees and the future
claimants (the Representatives) regarding participation in Federal-Moguls proposed 524(g)
asbestos trust. Based on the status of the negotiations in 2004, Cooper concluded that it was
probable that Federal-Mogul would reject the 1998 Agreement. Cooper also concluded that the
Representatives would require any negotiated settlement through the Federal-Mogul bankruptcy to be
at the high end of the Bates White, LLC liability analysis and with substantially lower insurance
recovery assumptions and higher administrative costs.
During late February and early March 2004, Cooper reassessed the accrual required based on the
then current status of the negotiations with the Representatives and the liability and insurance
receivable that would be required to be recorded if this matter is not settled within the
Federal-Mogul bankruptcy. Cooper concluded that resolution within the Federal-Mogul proposed
524(g) asbestos trust would likely be within the range of the liabilities, net of insurance
recoveries, that Cooper would accrue if this matter were not settled
-28-
within the Federal-Mogul bankruptcy. Accordingly, Cooper recorded a $126.0 million after-tax
discontinued operations charge, net of a $70.9 income tax benefit, in the fourth quarter of 2003.
In December 2005, Cooper announced that the Company and other parties involved in the
resolution of the Federal-Mogul bankruptcy proceeding had reached an agreement regarding Coopers
participation in Federal Moguls proposed 524 (g) asbestos trust. By participating in this trust,
Cooper would resolve its liability for asbestos claims arising from Coopers former Abex Friction
Products business. The proposed settlement agreement was subject to court approval, approval of 75
percent of the current Abex asbestos claimants and certain other approvals. The settlement would
resolve more than 38,000 pending Abex Claims as of December 31, 2005. Future claims would be
resolved through the bankruptcy trust, and Cooper would be protected against future claims by an
injunction to be issued by the district court upon plan confirmation.
Key terms and aspects of the proposed settlement agreement included Cooper agreeing to pay
$130 million in cash into the trust, with $115 million payable upon Federal-Moguls emergence from
bankruptcy. The remainder would be due on January 15, 2007, or upon emergence from bankruptcy, if
later. Cooper would receive a total of $37.5 million during the funding period from other parties
associated with the Federal-Mogul bankruptcy. Cooper would further provide the trust 1.4 million
shares of Cooper common stock upon Federal-Moguls emergence from bankruptcy.
The proposed settlement agreement also provided for further payments by Cooper subject to the
amount and timing of insurance proceeds. Cooper agreed to make 25 annual payments of up to $20
million each, reduced by certain insurance proceeds received by the trust. In years that the
insurance proceeds exceed $17 million, Cooper would be required to contribute $3 million with the
excess insurance proceeds carried over to the next year. The trust would retain 10 percent of the
insurance proceeds for indemnity claims paid by the trust until Coopers obligation is satisfied
and would retain 15 percent thereafter. The agreement also provided for Cooper to receive the
insurance proceeds related to indemnity and defense costs paid prior to the date a stay of current
claims is entered by the bankruptcy court. Cooper would also be required to forego certain claims
and objections in the Federal-Mogul bankruptcy proceedings. In addition, the parties involved had
agreed to petition the court for a stay on all current claims outstanding.
Although the payments related to the settlement could extend to 25 years and the collection of
insurance proceeds could extend beyond 25 years, the liability and insurance would be undiscounted
on Coopers balance sheet as the amount of the actual annual payments is not reasonably
predictable.
A critical term of the proposed settlement was the issuance of a preliminary injunction
staying all pending Abex asbestos claims. At a hearing on January 20, 2006, other parties to the
bankruptcy proceedings were unable to satisfy the courts requirements to grant the required
preliminary injunction. As a result, the proposed settlement agreement required renegotiation of
certain terms. The final determination of whether Cooper will participate in the Federal-Mogul
524(g) trust was unknown. However, Cooper management concluded that, at the date of the filing of
its 2005 Form 10-K, the most likely outcome in the range of potential outcomes was a revised
settlement approximating the December 2005 proposed settlement. Accordingly, Cooper recorded a
$227.2 million after-tax discontinued operations charge, net of a $127.8 million income tax
benefit, in the fourth quarter of 2005.
The fourth quarter 2005 charge to discontinued operations included payments to a 524(g) trust
over 25 years that were undiscounted, and the insurance recoveries only included recoveries where
insurance in place agreements, settlements or policy recoveries were probable. If the negotiations
with the Representatives in early 2004 had resulted in an agreement, Cooper would have paid all the
consideration when Federal-Mogul emerged from bankruptcy and the 524(g) trust was formed and would
have relinquished all rights to insurance. The lack of discounting and the limited recognition of
insurance recoveries in the fourth quarter 2005 charge to discontinued operations were a
significant component of the increase in the accrual for discontinued operations. While it is not
possible to quantify, the accrual for discontinued operations also includes a premium for resolving
the inherent uncertainty associated with resolving Abex claims through the tort system. If Cooper
is unable to reach a settlement to participate in the Federal-Mogul 524(g) trust, the accrual for
discontinued operations potentially may have to be reduced to the
-29-
estimated liability and related insurance recoveries through the tort system. There are
numerous assumptions that are required to project the liability in the tort system and Cooper has
not completed the analysis and determined the liability that would be recorded under this scenario.
Cooper, through Pneumo-Abex LLC, has access to Abex insurance policies with remaining limits
on policies with solvent insurers in excess of $750 million. Cooper included insurance recoveries
of approximately $215 million pre-tax in the fourth quarter 2005 charge to discontinued operations
discussed above. Cooper believes that it is likely that additional insurance recoveries will be
recorded in the future as new insurance in place agreements are consummated and settlements with
insurance carriers are completed. However, extensive litigation with the insurance carriers may be
required to receive those additional recoveries.
On July 7, 2006, Cooper announced a revised agreement had been reached regarding Coopers
participation in Federal-Moguls 524(g) trust. The revised proposed settlement agreement remains
subject to court approval and to certain other approvals.
Key terms and aspects of the revised proposed settlement agreement include Cooper agreeing to
pay $256 million in cash into the trust on the date Federal-Mogul emerges from bankruptcy, which
includes elimination of the contribution of 1.4 million common shares to the trust by increasing
the cash contribution. Removing Cooper common stock as a component of the revised settlement
agreement eliminates additional charges and reversals of charges that may have occurred to account
for any changes in the market value of Cooper stock. Cooper has or will receive $37.5 million from
other parties toward its cash obligation.
As in the December 2005 agreement, Cooper has agreed to make 25 annual payments of up to $20
million each to the trust with such payments being reduced by insurance proceeds. The minimum
annual payment of $3 million in the December 2005 agreement has been eliminated. However, Cooper
has agreed to make advances, beginning in 2015 through 2021, in the event the trust is unable to
pay outstanding qualified claims at 100 percent of the value provided for in the trust agreement.
In the event that advances are made by Cooper, they will accrue interest at 5 percent per annum,
and will be repaid in years where excess funds are available in the trust or credited against the
future year annual payments. The maximum advances are $36.6 million.
Cooper will pay all defense costs through the date Federal-Mogul emerges from bankruptcy and
will be reimbursed for indemnity payments to the extent such payments are eligible for payment from
the trust. Cooper will retain the rights to receive the insurance proceeds related to indemnity
and defense costs paid prior to the date Federal-Mogul emerges from bankruptcy. For claims paid by
the trust, the trust will retain 10 percent of any reimbursed insurance proceeds for the first 25
years and thereafter will retain 15 percent.
As in the December 2005 proposed agreement, Cooper will forego certain claims and objections
in the Federal-Mogul bankruptcy proceedings. However, under the revised proposed agreement, which
is subject to court approval, in the event that Coopers participation in the Federal-Mogul 524(g)
trust is not approved for any reason, Cooper would receive a cash payment of $138 million on the
date Federal-Mogul emerges from bankruptcy and 20 percent of any insurance policy settlements
related to the former Wagner business purchased by Federal-Mogul in 1998. If Cooper participates
in the trust, it will receive 12 percent of any Wagner insurance settlements.
Accordingly, Cooper recorded a $20.3 million after-tax discontinued operations charge, net of
an $11.4 million income tax benefit, in the second quarter of 2006.
The revised proposed settlement agreement was incorporated into Federal-Moguls Fourth Amended
Joint Plan of Reorganization filed on November 21, 2006.
On February 2, 2007, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware approved the
adequacy of Federal-Moguls Supplemental Disclosure Statement describing the Fourth Amended Joint
Plan of Reorganization. The Court also approved the Voting Procedures and ordered that the voting
period would
-30-
expire on April 6, 2007. At a hearing on April 13, Federal-Mogul announced that the Abex
settlement had received a favorable vote of approximately 94%, well in excess of the required vote.
In addition, any objections to the Fourth Amended Plan were filed with the Court by April 24, 2007
and the hearing on confirmation of the Plan was completed on July 10, 2007. The Court has
established dates through October 1, 2007 for final briefs and hearings. If the Plan is confirmed,
Federal-Mogul could emerge from bankruptcy by year-end 2007.
From a cash flow perspective, Cooper management continues to believe that a settlement on the
terms of the revised agreement would allow Cooper to continue to grow through acquisitions and
return cash to shareholders through dividends and stock repurchases. The settlement agreement
remains subject to bankruptcy court approval and other matters. At this time, the exact manner in
which this issue will be resolved is not known. The accrual for potential liabilities related to
the Automotive Products sale and the Federal-Mogul bankruptcy was $543.0 million at June 30, 2007
and $529.6 million at December 31, 2006.

On November 2, 2004, Coopers Board of Directors authorized the repurchase
of up to ten million shares of Cooper Class A common stock. Cooper has also announced that
the Board authorized the repurchase of shares issued from time to time under its equity
compensation plans, matched savings plan and dividend reinvestment plan in order to offset the
dilution that results from issuing shares under these plans. For 2007, Coopers current
estimate is that 4.0 million shares will be issued under equity compensation plans, which is
reflected in the above table. |
