In 1986, Harley-Davidson, Inc. became publicly held. Unless the contextotherwise requires, all references to the “Company” include Harley-Davidson, Inc. and all of its subsidiaries. Harley-Davidson, Inc. is the parent company forthe groups of companies doing business as Harley-Davidson Motor Company (HDMC) and Harley-Davidson Financial Services (HDFS). The Company hastwo reportable segments: the Motorcycles and Related Products (Motorcycles) segment and the Financial Services segment.StrategyThe Company's long-term strategy, announced in 2017, is to build the next generation of Harley-Davidson riders globally and includes the following2027 objectives:•Build two million new Harley-Davidson riders in the U.S.•Grow the Harley-Davidson international business to 50 percent of its total annual volume•Launch 100 new, high-impact Harley-Davidson motorcycles•Deliver superior return on invested capital for HDMC that falls within the top quartile of the S&P 500•Grow the business without growing its environmental impactOn July 30, 2018, the Company disclosed its “More Roads to Harley-Davidson” plan to accelerate the Company's strategy to build the next generationof riders globally. The More Roads to Harley-Davidson plan through 2022 includes three growth catalysts:•New products - keep current riders engaged and inspire new riders by extending heavyweight leadership and expanding into new markets andsegments•Broader access - meet customers where they are and how they want to engage with a multi-channel retail experience•Stronger dealers - drive a performance framework to improve dealer financial strength and the Harley-Davidson customer experienceMotorcycles and Related Products SegmentThe Motorcycles segment consists of HDMC, which designs, manufactures and sells at wholesale on-road Harley-Davidson motorcycles as well asmotorcycle parts, accessories, general merchandise and related services. The Company conducts business on a global basis, with sales in the United States,Canada, Latin America, Europe/Middle East/Africa (EMEA) and Asia Pacific.3The following table includes Motorcycles segment revenue by product line as a percent of total revenue for the last three fiscal years(a): 2018 2017 2016Motorcycles 78.1% 76.6% 76.9%Parts & Accessories 15.2% 16.3% 15.9%General Merchandise 4.9% 5.3% 5.4%Licensing 0.8% 0.8% 0.8%Other 1.0% 1.0% 1.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0%(a)In connection with the adoption of ASU 2014-09, the Company has changed its presentation of disaggregated Motorcycles segment revenue and theprior period has been recast to reflect the new presentation.Motorcycles - The Company's current Harley-Davidson motorcycle offerings include cruiser and touring models that feature unique styling, innovativedesign, distinctive sound, and superior quality with the ability to customize. These Harley-Davidson motorcycles generally have engines with displacementsthat are greater than 601cc's, up to a maximum displacement of approximately 1900cc's.The total on-road motorcycle market is comprised of the following segments:•Cruiser (emphasizes styling and owner customization);•Touring (emphasizes rider comfort and load capacity and incorporates features such as fairings and luggage compartments);•Standard (a basic motorcycle which usually features upright seating for one or two passengers);•Sportbike (incorporates racing technology, aerodynamic styling, low handlebars with a “sport” riding position and high performance tires); and•Dual (designed with the capability for use on public roads as well as for some off-highway recreational use).The Company's current lineup of motorcycles competes primarily in the cruiser and touring segments of the market. Competition in the segments of themotorcycle market in which the Company currently competes is based upon a number of factors including product capabilities and features, styling, price,quality, reliability, warranty, availability of financing, and quality of the dealer network that sells the product. The Company believes its motorcyclescontinue to generally command a premium price at retail relative to competitors’ motorcycles. The Company emphasizes remarkable styling, customization,innovation, sound, quality and reliability in its products and generally offers a two-year warranty for its motorcycles. The Company considers the availabilityof a line of motorcycle parts & accessories and general merchandise, the availability of financing through HDFS and its global network of independentdealers to be competitive advantages.Under the More Roads to Harley-Davidson plan, the Company intends to introduce new products including electric motorcycles; a new middle-weightplatform of motorcycles that includes adventure touring, custom and streetfighter models with engine displacements ranging from 500cc's to 1250cc's; andsmaller displacement motorcycles for emerging markets. The Company plans to introduce these new motorcycles between 2019 and 2022, starting with a newelectric motorcycle, LiveWireTM, in the second half of 2019.Motorcycle Industry Data - In 2018, the U.S. and European markets accounted for approximately 76% of the total annual independent dealer retailsales of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles.

Certain technology-related intellectual property is also protected, where appropriate, by license agreements, confidentiality agreements or otheragreements with suppliers, employees and other third parties. The Company diligently protects its intellectual property, including patents and trade secrets,and its rights to innovative and proprietary technology and designs. This protection, including enforcement, is important as the Company moves forwardwith investments in new products, designs and technologies. While the Company believes patents are important to its business operations and in theaggregate constitute a valuable asset, the success of the business is not dependent on any one patent or group of patents. The Company’s active patentportfolio has an average age for patents of approximately seven years. A patent review committee manages the patent strategy and portfolio of the Company.Trademarks are important to the Company’s motorcycle business and licensing activities. The Company has a vigorous worldwide program oftrademark registration and enforcement to maintain and strengthen the value of the trademarks and prevent the unauthorized use of those trademarks. TheHARLEY-DAVIDSON trademark and the Bar and Shield trademark are each highly recognizable to the public and are very valuable assets. Additionally, theCompany uses numerous other trademarks, trade names and logos which are registered worldwide. The following are among the Company’s trademarks:HARLEY-DAVIDSON, H-D, HARLEY, the Bar & Shield Logo, MOTORCLOTHES, the MotorClothes Logo, the Willie G Skull Logo, HARLEY OWNERSGROUP, H.O.G., the H.O.G.

Substantially all of the Company’s trademarks are owned by H-D U.S.A., LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, which alsomanages the Company’s global trademark strategy and portfolio.Marketing and Customer Experiences – The Company’s products are marketed to retail customers worldwide primarily through digital and experientialactivities as well as through more traditional promotional and advertising activities.

The courses are conducted by anetwork of participating Harley-Davidson dealerships in the U.S., China, Mexico and Colombia, enabling students to experience the Harley-Davidsonlifestyle, environment, people and products as they learn.Through the Company's agreement with EagleRider, riders in the U.S. can rent Harley-Davidson motorcycles and participate in motorcycle tours.EagleRider is the exclusive provider of Harley-Davidson touring and cruiser motorcycle rentals and has locations throughout the U.S., including at selectHarley-Davidson dealerships. Outside the U.S., riders can rent Harley-Davidson motorcycles from participating dealers through the Company's AuthorizedRental Program and participate in tours through the Company's Harley-Davidson Authorized Tours Program.The Company's Harley-Davidson Museum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin is a unique destination that the Company believes builds and strengthens bondsbetween riders and Harley-Davidson and enhances the Harley-Davidson brand among the public at large.Distribution – The Company’s products are retailed primarily through a network of independent dealers, of which the majority sell Harley-Davidsonmotorcycles exclusively. These dealerships stock and sell the Company’s motorcycles, P&A, general merchandise and licensed products, and perform serviceon Harley-Davidson motorcycles. The Company believes the quality retail experience that its independent dealers provide is a differentiating and strategicadvantage for the Company.6The Company distributes its motorcycles and related products to a network of independent dealers located in approximately 100 countries worldwide.The following table includes the number of worldwide Harley-Davidson independent dealerships by geographic location as of December 31, 2018: United States Canada Latin America EMEA Asia Pacific TotalDealerships 691 69 64 412 299 1,535P&A, general merchandise and licensed products are also retailed through eCommerce channels in certain markets. In the U.S., the Company operatesan eCommerce site that offers products sold through participating authorized U.S. Harley-Davidson dealers and also sells directly to consumers through awell-known third-party eCommerce site. The Company also utilizes third-party eCommerce sites in select international markets.Retail Customer and Dealer Financing – The Company believes that HDFS, as well as other third-party financial institutions, provide access tofinancing for Harley-Davidson dealers and their retail customers. HDFS provides financing to Harley-Davidson independent dealers and retail customers ofindependent dealers in the U.S. and Canada. The Company’s independent dealers and their retail customers in EMEA, Asia Pacific and Latin America are notdirectly financed by HDFS, but have access to financing through other established financial services companies, some of which have licensing or brandingagreements with HDFS.Seasonality – The timing of retail sales made by the Company’s independent dealers tracks closely with regional riding seasons. The seasonality of theCompany’s wholesale motorcycle shipments primarily correlates with the timing of retail sales. The Company utilizes flexible or surge manufacturingcapabilities to help align the production and wholesale shipment of motorcycles with the retail selling season. This provides the Company the ability toreduce the impact of seasonality on inventory levels in the U.S. and Canada. In EMEA, Asia Pacific and Latin America, the Company utilizes a distributionprocess whereby Company-owned inventory is maintained locally at a level sufficient to fulfill dealer orders as needed.Motorcycle Manufacturing – The Company has a flexible manufacturing process designed to help ensure it is well-positioned to meet customerdemand in a timely and cost-effective manner.(1) This flexible or surge manufacturing capability allows the Company to increase the production ofmotorcycles ahead of and during the peak retail selling season to more closely correlate the timing of production and wholesale shipments to the retailselling season. It also allows the Company to respond to the desired model mix to meet customer demand.The majority of the Company's motorcycles are manufactured at facilities located in the U.S. The Company's U.S. manufacturing facilities supply theU.S. market as well as certain international markets. Additionally, the Company operates facilities in Thailand, Brazil, India and Australia. The Companybegan producing at its new facility in Thailand in 2018, which currently manufactures motorcycles for certain Asian markets. In Brazil, the Companyoperates a Complete Knock Down (CKD) assembly facility, which assembles motorcycles sold in Brazil from component kits sourced from the Company’sU.S. plants and suppliers. In India, the Company operates a manufacturing facility that includes both CKD assembly of certain motorcycles for sale in Indiaand production of the Company’s Street 750® motorcycles for distribution to markets outside of North America. Like its U.S. manufacturing facilities, theCompany’s Thailand, Brazil and India operations are focused on driving world-class performance. The motorcycles assembled at the Company's internationalfacilities have the same authentic look, sound, feel and quality of a motorcycle manufactured by the Company's U.S. facilities. These international facilitiesenable the Company to be close to the customer, provide quality products at a competitive price and grow its overall international business. In early 2019,the Company will cease operation of its manufacturing facility in Australia, which had produced a portion of its wheels for its motorcycles. These wheels willbe sourced from other current suppliers.Raw Materials and Purchased Components – The Company continues to establish and reinforce long-term, mutually beneficial relationships with itssuppliers. Through these collaborative relationships, the Company gains access to technical and commercial resources for application directly to productdesign, development and manufacturing initiatives. In addition, through a continued focus on collaboration and strong supplier relationships, the Companybelieves it will be positioned to achieve strategic objectives and deliver cost and quality improvements over the long-term.(1) The Company's principal raw materials that are purchased include steel and aluminum castings, forgings, steel sheet and bar. The Company alsopurchases certain motorcycle components including, but not limited to, electronic fuel injection systems, batteries, tires, seats, electrical components,instruments and wheels. The Company closely monitors the overall viability of its supply base. At this time, the Company does not anticipate difficulties inobtaining raw materials or components.(1) Regulation – International, federal, state and local authorities have various environmental control requirements relating to air, water and noise thataffect the business and operations of the Company. The Company strives to ensure that its facilities and products comply with all applicable environmentalregulations and standards.7The Company’s motorcycles and certain other products that are sold in the United States are subject to certification by the U.S. EnvironmentalProtection Agency (EPA) and the California Air Resources Board (CARB) for compliance with applicable emissions and noise standards. Certain Harley-Davidson products are designed to comply with EPA and CARB standards and the Company believes it will comply with future requirements when they gointo effect.(1) Additionally, certain of the Company’s products must comply with the motorcycle emissions, noise and safety standards of Canada, theEuropean Union, Japan, Brazil and certain other foreign markets where they are sold, and the Company believes its products currently comply with thosestandards. Because the Company expects that environmental standards will become more stringent over time, the Company will continue to incur research,development and production costs in this area for the foreseeable future.(1) The Company, as a manufacturer of motorcycle products, is subject to the U.S. National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act, which is administered bythe U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The Company has certified to NHTSA that certain of its motorcycle products comply fullywith all applicable federal motor vehicle safety standards and related regulations. The Company has from time to time initiated certain voluntary recalls.During the last three years, the Company has accrued $110.0 million associated with 9 voluntary recalls related to Harley-Davidson motorcycles.Employees – As of December 31, 2018, the Motorcycles segment had approximately 5,300 employees.Approximately 2,200 unionized employees at the U.S. manufacturing facilities are represented as follows:•York, Pennsylvania - International Association of Machinist and Aerospace Workers (IAM), collective bargaining agreement will expire on October15, 2022•Kansas City, Missouri - United Steelworkers of America (USW) and IAM, collective bargaining agreement will expire on December 31, 2019•Milwaukee, Wisconsin - USW and IAM, collective bargaining agreements will expire on March 31, 2019•Tomahawk, Wisconsin - USW, collective bargaining agreement will expire on March 31, 2019Financial Services SegmentThe Financial Services segment consists of HDFS which is engaged in the business of financing and servicing wholesale inventory receivables andretail consumer loans, primarily for the purchase of Harley-Davidson motorcycles. HDFS also works with certain unaffiliated insurance companies to providemotorcycle insurance and protection products to motorcycle owners. HDFS conducts business principally in the U.S. and Canada. The Company’sindependent dealers and their retail customers in EMEA, Asia Pacific and Latin America are not financed by HDFS, but have access to financing throughother third-party financial institutions, some of which have licensing or branding agreements with the Company or HDFS.Wholesale Financial Services – HDFS provides wholesale financial services to Harley-Davidson dealers, including floorplan and open accountfinancing of motorcycles and motorcycle parts and accessories. HDFS offers wholesale financial services to Harley-Davidson dealers in the United States andCanada, and during 2018, all of such dealers utilized those services at some point during the year.Retail Financial Services – HDFS provides retail financing to consumers, consisting primarily of installment lending for the purchase of new and usedHarley-Davidson motorcycles. HDFS’ retail financial services are available through most Harley-Davidson dealerships in the United States and Canada.Insurance Services – HDFS works with certain unaffiliated insurance companies which offer point-of-sale protection products through most Harley-Davidson dealers in both the U.S. and Canada, including motorcycle insurance, extended service contracts and motorcycle maintenance protection. HDFSalso direct-markets motorcycle insurance and extended service contracts to owners of Harley-Davidson motorcycles. In addition, HDFS markets acomprehensive package of business insurance coverages and services to owners of Harley-Davidson dealerships.Licensing – HDFS has licensing arrangements with third-party financial institutions that issue credit cards bearing the Harley-Davidson brand in U.S.and international markets. Internationally, HDFS licenses the Harley-Davidson brand to local third-party financial institutions that offer products to theCompany’s retail customers such as financing and insurance.Funding – The Company believes a diversified and cost-effective funding strategy is important to meet HDFS’ goal of providing credit whiledelivering appropriate returns and profitability. Financial Services operations have been funded with unsecured debt, unsecured commercial paper, asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities, committed unsecured bank facilities and asset-backed securitizations.Competition – The Company regards its ability to offer a package of wholesale and retail financial services in the U.S. and Canada as a significantcompetitive advantage. Competitors in the financial services industry compete for business based8largely on price and, to a lesser extent, service. HDFS competes on convenience, service, brand association, dealer relations, industry experience, terms andprice.In the United States, HDFS financed 64.9% of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles retailed by independent dealers during 2018, compared to 61.2% in2017. In Canada, HDFS financed 39.9% of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles retailed by independent dealers during 2018, compared to 41.9% in 2017.Competitors for retail motorcycle finance business are primarily banks, credit unions and other financial institutions. In the motorcycle insurance business,competition primarily comes from national insurance companies and from insurance agencies serving local or regional markets. For insurance-relatedproducts such as extended service contracts, HDFS faces competition from certain regional and national industry participants as well as dealer in-houseprograms. Competition for the wholesale motorcycle finance business primarily consists of banks and other financial institutions providing wholesalefinancing to Harley-Davidson dealers in their local markets.Trademarks – HDFS uses various trademarks and trade names for its financial services and products which are licensed from H-D U.S.A., LLC, includingHARLEY-DAVIDSON, H-D and the Bar & Shield logo.Seasonality – HDFS experiences seasonal variations in retail financing activities based on the timing of regional riding seasons in the U.S. and Canada.In general, from mid-March through August, retail financing volume is greatest. HDFS wholesale financing volume is affected by inventory levels at Harley-Davidson dealers. Dealers generally have higher inventory in the first half of the year. As a result, outstanding wholesale finance receivables are generallyhigher during the same period.Regulation – Operations of HDFS (both U.S. and foreign) are subject, in certain instances, to supervision and regulation by state and federaladministrative agencies and various foreign governmental authorities. Many of the requirements imposed by such entities are in place to provide consumerprotection as it pertains to the selling and servicing of financial products and services. Therefore, HDFS operations may be subject to limitations imposed byregulations, laws and judicial and/or administrative decisions. In the U.S. for example, applicable laws include the federal Truth-in-Lending Act, Equal CreditOpportunity Act and Fair Credit Reporting Act.Depending on the specific facts and circumstances involved, non-compliance with these laws may result in consequences such as limiting the ability ofHDFS to collect all or part of the principal or interest on applicable loans, entitling the borrower to rescind the loan or to obtain a refund of amountspreviously paid, or could subject HDFS to the payment of damages or penalties and administrative sanctions, including “cease and desist” orders, and couldlimit the number of loans eligible for HDFS securitization programs.The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act granted the federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the Bureau) significantsupervisory, enforcement, and rule-making authority in the area of consumer financial products and services. Certain Bureau actions and regulations willdirectly impact HDFS and its operations. For example, the Bureau has supervisory authority over non-bank larger participants in the vehicle financingmarket, which includes a non-bank subsidiary of HDFS.Such regulatory requirements and associated supervision also could limit the discretion of HDFS in operating its business. Noncompliance withapplicable statutes or regulations could result in the suspension or revocation of any charter, license or registration at issue, as well as the imposition of civilfines, criminal penalties and administrative sanctions.A subsidiary of HDFS, Eaglemark Savings Bank (ESB), is a Nevada state thrift chartered as an Industrial Loan Company (ILC). The activities of thissubsidiary are governed by federal laws and regulations as well as State of Nevada banking laws, and are subject to examination by the Federal DepositInsurance Corporation (FDIC) and Nevada state bank examiners. ESB originates retail loans and sells the loans to a non-banking subsidiary of HDFS.

Risk FactorsAn investment in Harley-Davidson, Inc. involves risks, including those discussed below. These risk factors should be considered carefully beforedeciding whether to invest in the Company.•The Company may not be able to successfully execute its long-term business strategy. There is no assurance that the Company will be able todrive growth and increase ridership to the extent desired through its focus of efforts and resources on its long-term business strategy and the Harley-Davidson brand, or to enhance productivity and profitability to the extent desired through pricing and continuous improvement.•The Company’s strategy to grow ridership may not be successful. The Company has been successful in marketing its products in large part bypromoting the experience of Harley-Davidson motorcycling. To sustain and grow the business over the long-term, the Company must grow the sportof motorcycling and continue to be successful selling products and promoting the experience of motorcycling to new customers, including newriders, competitive riders and those who have motorcycle licenses but do not currently ride. The Company’s efforts toward building two millionriders in the U.S. between 2017 and 2027 and growing ridership internationally may not be successful, and achieving such growth in ridership maystill not adequately meet the desired result of driving unit sales growth. Further, growing ridership in the U.S. may be challenging because themotorcycle market in the U.S. has been stagnant or declining, and the Company expects those conditions to continue. Failure to successfully drivedemand for the Company's products may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business and results of operations.•Changes in trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs, their enforcement, and downstream consequences, may continue to have amaterial adverse impact on our business, results of operations, and outlook. Tariffs and/or other developments with respect to trade policies, tradeagreements, and government regulations could have a material adverse impact on the Company's business, financial condition and results ofoperations. To date, the European Union has placed a 25% incremental tariff (31% total tariff) on motorcycles imported into the European Unionfrom the U.S., and that is scheduled to increase to a 50% incremental tariff (56% total tariff) effective June 1, 2021. Shipments of motorcycles to theEuropean Union are a significant and growing portion of the Company’s total motorcycle sales. The China tariffs on Harley-Davidson motorcyclesexported from the U.S. increased from 30% to 55%, effective August 23, 2018, and are set to remain in place indefinitely. In addition, the U.Sgovernment has imposed tariffs of 25% on steel imports and 10% on aluminum imports from certain countries, which has resulted in increased coststo the Company for these materials.Without limitation, (i) tariffs currently in place, (ii) the imposition by the U.S. government of new tariffs on imports to the U.S. and/or (iii)the imposition by foreign countries of tariffs on U.S. products, including tariffs imposed in response to U.S. tariffs, could materially increase: (a) thecost of our products that we are offering for sale in relevant countries, (b) the cost of certain products that we source from foreign manufacturers, and(c) certain raw materials that we utilize, the prices of which tariffs may impact. We may not be able to pass such increased costs on to our dealers ortheir customers, and we may not be able to secure sources of certain products and materials that are not subject to10tariffs on a timely basis. Such developments could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.The Company previously disclosed plans to mitigate the impact of the current incremental European Union and China tariffs by the end of2019. The Company is pursuing regulatory approvals for motorcycles sourced in Thailand to receive lower tariff treatment, but it is uncertainwhether the Company will succeed in obtaining these regulatory approvals. As a result, the Company is considering multiple other options to servethe EU market should they be required. Options other than assembling motorcycles in Thailand would likely not result in mitigating the full impactof the current incremental European Union tariffs by the end of 2019.•The Company must effectively execute its manufacturing optimization plan within expected costs and timing. In January 2018, the Companyannounced a multi-year manufacturing optimization plan anchored by the consolidation of its final assembly plant in Kansas City, Missouri, into itsYork, Pennsylvania plant, and the closure of its wheel operations in Australia. These actions are designed to eliminate excess capacity and reduceproduction costs and component supply costs. Effectively executing these plans within expected costs and realizing expected benefits will dependupon a number of factors, including the time required to complete planned actions and effective collaboration with the unions representing theCompany’s employees, the absence of material issues associated with workforce reductions, availability of and effective use of third-party serviceproviders to assist in implementing the actions, the ability and effectiveness of current suppliers to take on additional component productionvolume, avoidance of unexpected disruptions in production, retention of key employees involved in implementing the restructuring plans and theability of the Company to dispose of vacated facilities in a cost effective manner.•The Company’s ability to remain competitive is dependent upon its capability to develop and successfully introduce new, innovative andcompliant products. The motorcycle market continues to change in terms of styling preferences and advances in new technology, and at the sametime, it is subject to increasing regulations related to safety and emissions. The Company must continue to distinguish its products from itscompetitors’ products with unique styling and new technologies. The Company may not be able to achieve its goal of introducing 100 new, high-impact motorcycle models between 2017 and 2027, and introducing those models may still not lead to the desired result of driving unit salesgrowth. As the Company incorporates new and different features and technology into its products, the Company must protect its intellectualproperty from imitators and ensure its products do not infringe the intellectual property of other companies. In addition, these new products mustcomply with applicable regulations worldwide and satisfy the potential demand for products that produce lower emissions and achieve better fueleconomy. The Company must make product advancements to respond to changing consumer preferences and market demands while maintaining theunique look, sound and feel associated with Harley-Davidson products, and development of electric vehicles will present challenges to theCompany’s ability to maintain such look, sound and feel. The Company must also be able to design and manufacture these products and deliverthem to a global marketplace in an efficient and timely manner and at prices that are attractive to customers. There can be no assurances that theCompany will be successful in these endeavors or that existing and prospective customers will like or want the Company’s new products.•Increased supply of and/or declining prices for used motorcycles and excess supply of new motorcycles may adversely impact retail sales ofnew motorcycles by the Company’s independent dealers. The Company has observed that when the supply of used motorcycles increases or theprices for used Harley-Davidson motorcycles decline, there can be reduced demand among retail purchasers for new Harley-Davidson motorcycles (ator near manufacturer’s suggested retail prices). Further, the Company and its independent dealers can and do take actions that influence the marketsfor new and used Harley-Davidson motorcycles. For example, introduction of new motorcycle models with significantly different functionality,technology or other customer satisfiers can result in increased supply of used motorcycles, which could result in declining prices for usedmotorcycles and prior model-year new motorcycles. Also, while the Company has taken steps designed to balance production volumes for its newmotorcycles with demand, those steps may not be effective, or the Company’s competitors could choose to supply new motorcycles to the market inexcess of demand at reduced prices which could also have the effect of reducing demand for new Harley-Davidson motorcycles (at or nearmanufacturer’s suggested retail prices). Ultimately, reduced demand among retail purchasers for new Harley-Davidson motorcycles leads to reducedshipments by the Company.•The motorcycle industry has become increasingly competitive. Many of the Company’s competitors are more diversified than the Company, andthey may compete in all segments of the motorcycle market, other powersports markets and/or the automotive market. Certain competitors appear tobe increasing their investment in products that compete with the Company's products. Also, the Company’s manufacturer’s suggested retail price forits motorcycles is generally higher than its competitors, and as price becomes a more important competitive factor for consumers in11the markets in which the Company competes, the Company may be at a competitive disadvantage. Furthermore, many competitors headquarteredoutside the U.S. experience a financial benefit from a strengthening in the U.S. dollar relative to their home currency that can enable them to reduceprices to U.S. consumers. In addition, the Company’s financial services operations face competition from various banks, insurance companies andother financial institutions that may have access to additional sources of capital at more competitive rates and terms, particularly for borrowers inhigher credit tiers. The Company's responses to these competitive pressures, or its failure to adequately address and respond to these competitivepressures, may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and results of operations.•Changes in general economic and business conditions, tightening of credit and retail markets, political events or other factors may adverselyimpact dealers’ retail sales. The motorcycle industry is impacted by general economic conditions over which motorcycle manufacturers have littlecontrol. These factors can weaken the retail environment and lead to weaker demand for discretionary purchases such as motorcycles. Weakenedeconomic conditions in certain business sectors and geographic areas can also result in reduced demand for the Company's products. Tightening ofcredit can limit the availability of funds from financial institutions and other lenders and sources of capital which could adversely affect the abilityof retail consumers to obtain loans for the purchase of motorcycles from lenders, including HDFS. Should general economic conditions ormotorcycle industry demand decline, the Company’s results of operations and financial condition may be substantially adversely affected. Themotorcycle industry can also be affected by political conditions and other factors over which motorcycle manufacturers have little control.•Expanding international sales and operations subjects the Company to risks that may have a material adverse effect on its business. Expandinginternational sales and operations is a part of the Company’s long-term business strategy, particularly in light of the U.S. market conditions. There isno assurance that the Company will accomplish this successfully. Further, to support that strategy, the Company must increase its presence outsidethe U.S., including additional employees and investment in business infrastructure and operations. International operations and sales are subject tovarious risks, including political and economic instability, local labor market conditions, the imposition of foreign tariffs and other trade barriers,the impact of foreign government laws and regulations and U.S. laws and regulations that apply to international operations, and the effects of incomeand withholding taxes, governmental expropriation and differences in business practices. The Company may incur increased costs and experiencedelays or disruptions in product deliveries and payments in connection with international operations and sales that could cause loss of revenues andearnings. Unfavorable changes in the political, regulatory and business climate could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s net sales,financial condition, profitability or cash flows. This includes, for example, the uncertainty related to the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from theEuropean Union (commonly known as “Brexit”). Business practices that may be accepted in other countries can violate U.S. or other laws that applyto the Company. Violations of laws that apply to the Company's foreign operations, such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, could result insevere criminal or civil sanctions, could disrupt the Company's business and result in an adverse effect on the Company's reputation, business andresults of operations.•The Company may not be able to successfully execute its manufacturing strategy. The Company’s manufacturing strategy is designed tocontinuously improve product quality and increase productivity, while reducing costs and increasing flexibility to respond to ongoing changes inthe marketplace. Based on the Company’s strategy, the Company may, from time to time, open, close, expand, contract or restructure one or more ofits manufacturing facilities. The Company believes flexible manufacturing, including flexible supply chains and flexible labor agreements, is thekey element to enable improvements in the Company’s ability to respond to customers in a cost effective manner. To execute this strategy, theCompany must be successful in its implementation of facility changes and in its continuous improvement efforts, all of which are dependent on theinvolvement of management, production employees and suppliers. Any inability to achieve these objectives could adversely impact the profitabilityof the Company’s products and its ability to deliver the right product at the right time to the customer.•The Company must prevent and detect issues with its products, components purchased from suppliers, and its suppliers’ manufacturingprocesses to reduce the risk of recall campaigns, increased warranty costs or litigation, increased product liability claims or litigation, delaysin new model launches, and inquiries or investigations by regulatory agencies. The Company must also complete any recall campaigns withincost expectations. The Company must continually improve and adhere to product development and manufacturing processes, and ensure that itssuppliers and their sub-tier suppliers adhere to product development and manufacturing processes, to ensure high quality products are sold to retailcustomers. If product designs or manufacturing processes are defective, the Company could experience delays in new model launches, field actionssuch as product programs and product recalls, inquiries or investigations from regulatory agencies, warranty claims, and product liability claims,which may involve purported class actions. While the Company uses reasonable methods to estimate the cost of12warranty, recall and product liability costs and appropriately reflects those in its financial statements, there is a risk the actual costs could exceedestimates and result in damages that are not covered by insurance. Further, selling products with poor quality, the announcement of recalls, and thefiling of product liability claims (whether or not successful), may also adversely affect the Company’s reputation and brand strength.•A cybersecurity breach may adversely affect the Company’s reputation, revenue and earnings. The Company and certain of its third-partyservice providers and vendors receive, store, and transmit digital personal information in connection with the Company’s human resourcesoperations, financial services operations, e-commerce, the Harley Owners Group, dealer management, mobile applications, planned connectedvehicle services offerings and other aspects of its business. The Company’s information systems, and those of its third-party service providers andvendors, are vulnerable to the continually evolving cybersecurity risks. The Company's plan to offer connected vehicle services will heighten theserisks. Unauthorized parties have attempted to and may attempt in the future to gain access to these systems or the information the Company and itsthird-party service providers and vendors maintain and use through fraud or other means of deceiving our employees and third-party serviceproviders and vendors. Hardware, software or applications the Company develops or obtains from third-parties may contain defects in design ormanufacture or other problems that could unexpectedly compromise information security and/or the Company’s operations. The methods used toobtain unauthorized access, disable or degrade service or sabotage systems are constantly evolving and may be difficult to anticipate or detect. TheCompany has implemented and regularly reviews and updates processes and procedures to protect against unauthorized access to or use of secureddata and to prevent data loss. However, the ever-evolving threats mean the Company and third-party service providers and vendors must continuallyevaluate and adapt systems and processes, and there is no guarantee that they will be adequate to safeguard against all data security breaches ormisuses of data. The Company has experienced information security attacks, but to date they have not materially compromised the Company’scomputing environment or resulted in a material impact on the Company’s business or operations or the release of confidential information aboutemployees, customers, dealers, suppliers or other third parties. Any future significant compromise or breach of the Company’s data security, whetherexternal or internal, or misuse of customer, employee, dealer, supplier or Company data could result in disruption to the Company’s operations,significant costs, lost sales, fines and lawsuits, and/or damage to the Company’s reputation. In addition, as the regulatory environment related toinformation security, data collection and use, and privacy becomes increasingly rigorous, with new and evolving requirements, compliance couldalso result in the Company being required to incur additional costs.•The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign exchange rates, commodity prices and interest rates. The Company sells itsproducts internationally and in most markets those sales are made in the foreign country’s local currency. As a result, a weakening in those foreigncurrencies relative to the U.S. dollar can adversely affect the Company's revenue and margin, and cause volatility in results of operations.Furthermore, many competitors headquartered outside the U.S. experience a financial benefit from a strengthening in the U.S. dollar relative to theirhome currency that can enable them to reduce prices to U.S. consumers. The Company is also subject to risks associated with changes in prices ofcommodities. Earnings from the Company’s financial services business are affected by changes in interest rates. Although the Company usesderivative financial instruments to some extent to attempt to manage a portion of its exposure to foreign currency exchange rates and commodityprices, the Company does not attempt to manage its entire expected exposure, and these instruments generally do not extend beyond one year andmay expose the Company to credit risk in the event of counterparty default to the derivative financial instruments. There can be no assurance that inthe future the Company will successfully manage these risks.•The Financial Services operations are exposed to credit risk on its retail and wholesale receivables. Credit risk is the risk of loss arising from afailure by a customer, including the Company's independent dealers, to meet the terms of any contract with the Company’s financial servicesoperations. Credit losses are influenced by general business and economic conditions, including unemployment rates, bankruptcy filings and otherfactors that negatively affect household incomes, as well as contract terms and customer credit profiles. Credit losses are also influenced by themarkets for new and used motorcycles, and the Company and its independent dealers can and do take actions that impact those markets. Forexample, the introduction of new models by the Company that represent significant upgrades on previous models may result in increased supply ordecreased demand in the market for used Harley-Davidson branded motorcycles, including those motorcycles that serve as collateral or security forcredit that HDFS has extended. This in turn could adversely impact the prices at which those motorcycles may be sold, which may lead to increasedcredit losses for HDFS. Negative changes in general business, economic or market factors may have an additional adverse impact on the Company’sfinancial services credit losses and future earnings. The Company believes HDFS' retail credit losses may continue to increase over time due tochanging consumer credit behavior and HDFS' efforts to increase prudently structured loan approvals to sub-prime borrowers, as well as actions thatthe Company has taken and could take that impact motorcycle values. Increases in the frequency of loss and decreases in13the value of repossessed Harley-Davidson branded motorcycles also adversely impact credit losses. If there are adverse circumstances that involve amaterial decline in values of Harley-Davidson branded motorcycles, those circumstances or any related decline in resale values for Harley-Davidsonbranded motorcycles could contribute to increased delinquencies and credit losses.•The Company’s success depends upon the continued strength of the Harley-Davidson brand. The Company believes that the Harley-Davidsonbrand has significantly contributed to the success of its business and that maintaining and enhancing the brand is critical to expanding its customerbase. Failure to protect the brand from infringers or to grow the value of the Harley-Davidson brand may have a material adverse effect on theCompany’s business and results of operations.•The Company’s operations are dependent upon attracting and retaining skilled employees, including skilled labor, executive officers and othersenior leaders. The Company’s future success depends on its continuing ability to identify, hire, develop, motivate, retain and promote skilledpersonnel for all areas of its organization, and to effectively execute reorganization actions within expected costs and realize the expectedbenefits of those actions. The Company’s current and future total compensation arrangements, which include benefits and incentive awards, may notbe successful in attracting new employees and retaining and motivating the Company’s existing employees. In addition, the Company mustcultivate and sustain a work environment where employees are engaged and energized in their jobs to maximize their performance, and theCompany must effectively execute reorganization actions. If the Company does not succeed in attracting new personnel, retaining existingpersonnel, implementing effective succession plans and motivating and engaging personnel, including executive officers, the Company may beunable to develop and distribute products and services and effectively execute its plans and strategies. •The Company sells its products at wholesale and must rely on a network of independent dealers to manage the retail distribution of its products.The Company depends on the capability of its independent dealers to develop and implement effective retail sales plans to create demand amongretail purchasers for the motorcycles and related products and services that the dealers purchase from the Company. If the Company’s independentdealers are not successful in these endeavors, then the Company will be unable to maintain or grow its revenues and meet its financial expectations.Further, independent dealers may experience difficulty in funding their day-to-day cash flow needs and paying their obligations resulting fromadverse business conditions such as weakened retail sales and tightened credit. If dealers are unsuccessful, they may exit or be forced to exit thebusiness or, in some cases, the Company may seek to terminate relationships with certain dealerships. As a result, the Company could face additionaladverse consequences related to the termination of dealer relationships. Additionally, liquidating a former dealer’s inventory of new and usedmotorcycles can add downward pressure on new and used motorcycle prices. Further, the unplanned loss of any of the Company’s independentdealers may lead to inadequate market coverage for retail sales of new motorcycles and for servicing previously sold motorcycles, create negativeimpressions of the Company with its retail customers, and adversely impact the Company’s ability to collect wholesale receivables that areassociated with that dealer.•The Company must invest in and successfully implement new information systems and technology. The Company is continually modifying andenhancing its systems and technology to increase productivity and efficiency and to mitigate failure risks from older/aged technologies currently inits portfolio. The Company has several large, strategic information system projects in process. As new systems and technologies (and relatedstrategies) are implemented, the Company could experience unanticipated difficulties resulting in unexpected costs and adverse impacts to itsmanufacturing and other business processes. When implemented, the systems and technology may not provide the benefits anticipated and couldadd costs and complications to ongoing operations and older technologies may fail, which may have a material adverse effect on the Company’sbusiness and results of operations. In the case of the Company's planned electronic vehicle services offering, these risks are heightened because theseservices are dependent on (1) the successful implementation of complex third-party cloud solutions, (2) the ability of a rider's motorcycle and mobileapplication to successfully connect to each other, and (3) the support of cellular carriers.•The Company must comply with governmental laws and regulations that are subject to change and involve significant costs. The Company’ssales and operations in areas outside the U.S. may be subject to foreign laws, regulations and the legal systems of foreign courts or tribunals. Theselaws and policies governing operations of foreign-based companies may result in increased costs or restrictions on the ability of the Company to sellits products in certain countries. U.S. laws and policies affecting foreign trade and taxation may also adversely affect the Company's internationalsales operations.The Company’s domestic sales and operations are subject to governmental policies and regulatory actions of agencies of the United StatesGovernment, including the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), SEC, National Highway14Traffic Safety Administration, Department of Labor and Federal Trade Commission. In addition, the Company’s sales and operations are also subjectto laws and actions of state legislatures and other local regulators, including dealer statutes and licensing laws. Changes in regulations or theimposition of additional regulations may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and results of operations.Tax - The Company is subject to income and non-income based taxes in the U.S. and in various foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgment isrequired in determining the Company's worldwide income tax liabilities and other tax liabilities including the impact of the 2017 Tax Cuts and JobsAct (2017 Tax Act). The Company believes that it complies with applicable tax law. If the governing tax authorities have a different interpretationof the applicable law or if there is a change in tax law, the Company's financial condition and/or results of operations may be adversely affected. Tothe extent there are considerable changes to tax laws, the Company may need to readjust its tax strategy, and may not be able to take full advantageof such changes.Environmental - The Company’s motorcycle products use internal combustion engines. These motorcycle products are subject to statutory andregulatory requirements governing emissions and noise, including standards imposed by the EPA, state regulatory agencies, such as the CaliforniaAir Resources Board, and regulatory agencies in certain foreign countries where the Company’s motorcycle products are sold. The Company is alsosubject to statutory and regulatory requirements governing emissions and noise in the conduct of the Company’s manufacturing operations. Anysignificant change to the regulatory requirements governing emissions and noise may substantially increase the cost of manufacturing theCompany’s products. If the Company fails to meet existing or new requirements, then the Company may be unable to sell certain products or may besubject to fines or penalties. Further, in response to concerns about global climate changes and related changes in consumer preferences, theCompany may face greater regulatory or customer pressure to develop products that generate less emissions. This may require the Company to spendadditional funds on research, product development, and implementation costs and subject the Company to the risk that the Company’s competitorsmay respond to these pressures in a manner that gives them a competitive advantage.Financial Services - The Company’s financial services operations are governed by a wide range of foreign, federal and state laws that regulatefinancial and lending institutions, and financial services activities. In the U.S. for example, these laws include the federal Truth-in-Lending Act,Equal Credit Opportunity Act and Fair Credit Reporting Act. The financial services operations originate the majority of its consumer loans throughits subsidiary, Eaglemark Savings Bank, a Nevada state thrift chartered as an industrial loan company. Federal and state bodies may in the futureimpose additional laws, regulation and supervision over the financial services industry.Violations of, or non-compliance with, relevant laws and regulations may limit the ability of HDFS to collect all or part of the principal or interest onapplicable loans, may entitle the borrower to rescind the loan or obtain a refund of amounts previously paid, could subject HDFS to payment ofdamages, civil fines, or criminal penalties and administrative sanctions and could limit the number of loans eligible for HDFS securitizationsprograms. Such regulatory requirements and associated supervision also could limit the discretion of HDFS in operating its business, such as throughthe suspension or revocation of any charter, license or registration at issue, as well as the imposition of administrative sanctions, including "ceaseand desist" orders. The Company cannot assure that the applicable laws or regulations will not be amended or construed in ways that are adverse toHDFS, that new laws and regulations will not be adopted in the future, or that laws and regulations will not attempt to limit the interest rates chargedby HDFS, any of which may adversely affect the business of HDFS or its results of operations.The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) is a sweeping piece of legislation impacting financial servicesand the full effect will not be fully known for years, as regulations that are intended to implement the Dodd-Frank Act are adopted, and the text ofthe Dodd-Frank Act is analyzed by stakeholders and possibly the courts. The Dodd-Frank Act also created the Consumer Financial ProtectionBureau (the Bureau). The Bureau has significant enforcement and rule-making authority in the area of consumer financial products and services. Thedirection that the Bureau will take, the regulations it will adopt, and its interpretation of existing laws and regulations are all elements that are notyet fully known. Compliance may be costly and could affect operating results as the implementation of new forms, processes, procedures andcontrols and infrastructure may be required. Compliance may create operational constraints and place limits on pricing. Failure to comply, as well aschanges to laws and regulations, or the imposition of additional laws and regulations, could affect HDFS’ earnings, limit its access to capital, limitthe number of loans eligible for HDFS securitization programs and have a material adverse effect on HDFS’ business and results of operations. TheBureau also has supervisory authority over certain non-bank larger participants in the vehicle financing market, which includes a non-banksubsidiary of HDFS, allowing the Bureau to conduct comprehensive and rigorous on-site examinations that could result in enforcement actions,fines, changes to processes and procedures, product-related changes or consumer refunds, or other actions.15U.S. Public Company - The Company is also subject to policies and actions of the SEC and New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Many majorcompetitors of the Company are not subject to the requirements of the SEC or the NYSE rules. As a result, the Company may be required to disclosecertain information that may put the Company at a competitive disadvantage to its principal competitors.•Weather may impact retail sales by the Company's independent dealers. The Company has observed that abnormally cold and/or wet conditionsin a region, including impacts from hurricanes or unusual storms, could have the effect of reducing demand or changing the timing for purchases ofnew Harley-Davidson motorcycles. Reduced demand for new Harley-Davidson motorcycles ultimately leads to reduced shipments by the Company.•The Company relies on third-party suppliers to obtain raw materials and provide component parts for use in the manufacture of itsmotorcycles. The Company may experience supply problems relating to raw materials and components such as unfavorable pricing, poor quality, oruntimely delivery. In certain circumstances, the Company relies on a single supplier to provide the entire requirement of a specific part, and a changein this established supply relationship may cause disruption in the Company’s production schedule. In addition, the price and availability of rawmaterials and component parts from suppliers can be adversely affected by factors outside of the Company’s control such as the supply of anecessary raw material or natural disasters. Further, Company suppliers may experience difficulty in funding their day-to-day cash flow needsbecause of tightening credit caused by financial market disruption. In addition, adverse economic conditions and related pressure on select suppliersdue to difficulties in the global manufacturing arena could adversely affect their ability to supply the Company. Changes in laws and policiesrelating to trade and taxation may also adversely impact the Company's foreign suppliers. These supplier risks may have a material adverse effect onthe Company’s business and results of operations.•The Company’s Motorcycles segment is dependent upon unionized labor. Substantially all of the hourly production employees working in theMotorcycles segment are represented by unions and covered by collective bargaining agreements. Harley-Davidson Motor Company is currently aparty to five collective bargaining agreements with local affiliates of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers and theUnited Steelworkers of America. Current collective bargaining agreements with hourly employees in Missouri and Wisconsin will expire in 2019,and agreements with employees in Pennsylvania will expire in 2022. There is no certainty that the Company will be successful in negotiating newagreements with these unions that extend beyond the current expiration dates or that these new agreements will be on terms that will allow theCompany to be competitive. The Company's decisions regarding opening, closing, expanding, contracting or restructuring its facilities may requirechanges to existing or new bargaining agreements. Failure to renew agreements when they expire or to establish new collective bargainingagreements on terms acceptable to the Company and the unions could result in the relocation of production facilities, work stoppages or other labordisruptions which may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and results of operations.•The ability of the Company to expand international sales may be impacted by existing or new laws and regulations that impose motorcyclelicensing restrictions and limit access to roads and highways. Expanding international sales is a part of the Company’s long-term businessstrategy. A number of countries have tiered motorcycle licensing requirements that limit the ability of new and younger riders to obtain licenses tooperate the Company’s motorcycles, and many countries are considering the implementation of such requirements. These requirements only allownew and/or younger riders to operate smaller motorcycles for certain periods of time. Riders typically are only permitted to obtain a license to ridelarger motorcycles upon reaching certain ages and/or having been licensed to ride smaller motorcycles for a certain period of time, and only afterpassing additional tests and paying additional fees. These requirements pose obstacles to large displacement motorcycle ownership. Other countrieshave laws and regulations that prohibit motorcycles from being operated on certain roads and highways. These types of laws and regulations couldadversely impact the Company’s plans to expand international sales.•The Company is and may in the future become subject to legal proceedings and commercial or contractual disputes. The uncertainty associatedwith substantial unresolved claims and lawsuits may harm the Company’s business, financial condition, reputation and brand. The defense of thelawsuits may result in the expenditures of significant financial resources and the diversion of management’s time and attention away from businessoperations. In addition, although the Company is unable to determine the amount, if any, that it may be required to pay in connection with theresolution of the lawsuits by settlement or otherwise, any such payment may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and results ofoperations. Refer to the Company’s disclosures concerning legal proceedings in this Form 10-K and in the other periodic reports that the Companyfiles with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for additional detail regarding lawsuits and other claims against the Company.16•The Company, its suppliers, and its independent dealers must successfully accommodate a seasonal retail motorcycle sales pattern. TheCompany records the wholesale sale of a motorcycle when it is shipped to the Company’s independent dealers. The Company's flexible productioncapability allows it to more closely correlate motorcycle production and wholesale shipments with the retail selling season. Any difficulties inexecuting flexible production could result in lost production or sales. The Company, its suppliers, and its independent dealers must be able tosuccessfully manage changes in production rates, inventory levels and other business processes associated with flexible production. Failure by theCompany, its suppliers, or its independent dealers to make such adjustments may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business andresults of operations.•The Financial Services operations rely on external sources to finance a significant portion of its operations. Liquidity is essential to theCompany’s Financial Services business. Disruptions in financial markets may cause lenders and institutional investors to reduce or cease to loanmoney to borrowers, including financial institutions. The Company’s Financial Services operations may be negatively affected by difficulty inraising capital in the long-term and short-term capital markets. These negative consequences may in turn adversely affect the Company’s businessand results of operations in various ways, including through higher costs of capital, reduced funds available through its financial services operationsto provide loans to independent dealers and their retail customers, and dilution to existing share value through the use of alternative sources ofcapital.•The Financial Services operations are highly dependent on accessing capital markets to fund their operations at competitive interest rates, theCompany’s access to capital and its cost of capital are highly dependent upon its credit ratings, and any negative credit rating actions willadversely affect its earnings and results of operations. The ability of the Company and its Financial Services operations to access unsecuredcapital markets is influenced by their short-term and long-term credit ratings. If the Company’s credit ratings are downgraded or its ratings outlook isnegatively changed, the Company’s cost of borrowing could increase, resulting in reduced earnings and interest margins, or the Company’s access tocapital may be disrupted or impaired. The Company borrowed $750,000,000 in 2015 to fund the repurchase of its Common Stock, which increasedthe Company's leverage. Having increased leverage increases the risk of a downgrade in the Company's credit ratings.•The Company incurs substantial costs with respect to employee pension and healthcare benefits. The Company’s cash funding requirements andits estimates of liabilities and expenses for pensions and healthcare benefits for both active and retired employees are based on several factors thatare outside the Company’s control. These factors include funding requirements of the Pension Protection Act of 2006, the rate used to discount thefuture estimated liability, the rate of return on plan assets, current and projected healthcare costs, healthcare reform or legislation, retirement age andmortality. Changes in these factors can impact the expense, liabilities and cash requirements associated with these benefits which could have amaterial adverse effect on future results of operations, liquidity or shareholders’ equity. In addition, costs associated with these benefits put theCompany under significant cost pressure as compared to its competitors that may not bear the costs of similar benefit plans. Furthermore, costsassociated with complying with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act may produce additional cost pressure on the Company and its healthcare plans.•The Company must maintain stakeholder confidence in its operating ethics and corporate governance practices. The Company believes it has ahistory of good corporate governance and operating ethics. The Company has a Code of Business Conduct that defines how employees interact withvarious Company stakeholders and addresses issues such as confidentiality, conflict of interest and fair dealing. Failure to maintain its reputation forgood corporate governance and strong operating ethics may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and results of operations.•The Company’s operations may be affected by greenhouse emissions and climate change and related regulations. Climate change is receivingincreasing attention worldwide. Many scientists, legislators and others attribute climate change to increased levels of greenhouse gases, includingcarbon dioxide, which has led to significant legislative and regulatory efforts to limit greenhouse gas emissions. Congress has previously consideredand may in the future implement restrictions on greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, several states, including states where the Company hasmanufacturing plants, have previously considered and may in the future implement greenhouse gas registration and reduction programs. Energysecurity and availability and its related costs affect all aspects of the Company’s manufacturing operations in the United States, including theCompany’s supply chain. The Company’s manufacturing plants use energy, including electricity and natural gas, and certain of the Company’splants emit amounts of greenhouse gas that may be affected by these legislative and regulatory efforts. Greenhouse gas regulation could increase theprice of the electricity the Company purchases, increase costs for use of natural gas, potentially17restrict access to or the use of natural gas, require the Company to purchase allowances to offset the Company’s own emissions or result in an overallincrease in costs of raw materials, any one of which could increase the Company’s costs, reduce competitiveness in a global economy or otherwisenegatively affect the Company’s business, operations or financial results. Many of the Company’s suppliers face similar circumstances. Physicalrisks to the Company’s business operations as identified by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and other expert bodies includescenarios such as sea level rise, extreme weather conditions and resource shortages. Extreme weather may disrupt the production and supply ofcomponent parts or other items such as natural gas, a fuel necessary for the manufacture of motorcycles and their components. Supply disruptionswould raise market rates and jeopardize the continuity of motorcycle production.•Regulations related to materials that the Company purchases to use in its products could cause the Company to incur additional expenses andmay have other adverse consequences. Laws or regulations impacting our supply chain, such as the UK Modern Slavery Act, could affect thesourcing and availability of some of the raw materials that the Company uses in the manufacturing of its products. The Company's supply chain iscomplex, and if it is not able to fully understand its supply chain, then the Company may face reputational challenges with customers, investors orothers. For example, many countries in which the Company distributes its products are beginning to introduce regulations that require knowledgeand disclosure of virtually all materials and chemicals in the Company’s products. Accordingly, the Company could incur significant costs related tothe process of complying with these laws, including potential difficulty or added costs in satisfying the disclosure requirements.•The Company relies on third parties to perform certain operating and administrative functions for the Company. Similar to suppliers of rawmaterials and components, the Company may experience problems with outsourced services, such as unfavorable pricing, untimely delivery ofservices, or poor quality. Also, these suppliers may experience adverse economic conditions due to difficulties in the global economy that couldlead to difficulties supporting the Company's operations. In light of the amount and types of functions that the Company has outsourced, theseservice provider risks may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business and results of operations.The Company disclaims any obligation to update these Risk Factors or any other forward-looking statements. The Company assumes no obligation(and specifically disclaims any such obligation) to update these Risk Factors or any other forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes inassumptions or other factors affecting such forward-looking statements.

Legal ProceedingsThe Company is subject to lawsuits and other claims related to environmental, product and other matters. In determining costs to accrue related to theseitems, the Company carefully analyzes cases and considers the likelihood of adverse judgments or outcomes, as well as the potential range of possible loss.Any amounts accrued for these matters are monitored on an ongoing basis and are updated based on new developments or new information as it becomesavailable for each matter.Environmental Protection Agency Notice:In December 2009, the Company received formal, written requests for information from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)regarding: (i) certificates of conformity for motorcycle emissions and related designations and labels, (ii) aftermarket parts, and (iii) warranty claims onemissions related components. The Company promptly submitted written responses to the EPA’s inquiry and has engaged in information exchanges anddiscussions with the EPA. In August 2016, the Company entered into a consent decree with the EPA regarding these issues, and the consent decree wassubsequently revised in July 2017 (the Settlement). In the Settlement, the Company agreed to, among other things, pay a fine, and not sell tuning productsunless they are approved by the EPA or California Air Resources Board. In December 2017, the EPA filed the Settlement with the U.S. District Court for theDistrict of Columbia for the purpose of obtaining court approval of the Settlement. Three amicus briefs opposing portions of the Settlement were filed withthe court by the deadline of January 31, 2018. On March 1, 2018, the Company and the EPA each filed separate response briefs. The Company is awaiting thecourt's decision on whether or not to finalize the Settlement. The Company has an accrual associated with this matter which is included in accrued liabilitiesin the consolidated balance sheets, and as a result, if it is finalized, the Settlement would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financialcondition or results of operations. The Settlement is not final until it is approved by the court, and if it is not approved by the court, the Company cannotreasonably estimate the impact of any remedies the EPA might seek beyond the Company's current reserve for this matter.York Environmental Matters:The Company is involved with government agencies and groups of potentially responsible parties related to a matter involving the cleanup of soil andgroundwater contamination at its York, Pennsylvania facility. The York facility was formerly used by the U.S. Navy and AMF prior to the purchase of theYork facility by the Company from AMF in 1981. The Company has been working with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP)since 1986 and with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in undertaking environmental investigation and remediation activities, including asite-wide remedial investigation/feasibility study (RI/FS).In January 1995, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the Agreement) with the Navy, and the parties amended the Agreement in 2013 toaddress ordnance and explosive waste. The Agreement calls for the Navy and the Company to contribute amounts into a trust equal to 53% and 47%,respectively, of costs associated with environmental investigation and19remediation activities at the York facility (Response Costs). The trust administers the payment of the Response Costs incurred at the York facility as coveredby the Agreement.The Company has an accrual for its estimate of its share of the future Response Costs at the York facility which is included in other long-term liabilitiesin the consolidated balance sheets. While the work on the RI/FS is now complete and the final remedy was proposed in late 2018, it has not yet beenapproved, and given the uncertainty that exists concerning the nature and scope of additional environmental remediation that may ultimately be requiredunder the approved final remedy, the Company is unable to make a reasonable estimate of those additional costs, if any, that may result.The estimate of the Company's future Response Costs that will be incurred at the York facility is based on reports of independent environmentalconsultants retained by the Company, the actual costs incurred to date, and the estimated costs to complete the necessary investigation and remediationactivities.Product Liability Matters:The Company is involved in product liability suits related to the operation of its business. The Company accrues for claim exposures that are probableof occurrence and can be reasonably estimated. The Company also maintains insurance coverage for product liability exposures. The Company believes thatits accruals and insurance coverage are adequate and that product liability suits will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidatedfinancial statements.Item 4.

The forward-looking statements included in the Outlook section are only made as of January 29, 2019 and theremaining forward-looking statements in this report are only made as of the date of the filing of this report (February 28, 2019), and the Company disclaimsany obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.Overview(1) The Company’s net income for 2018 was $531.5 million, or $3.19 per diluted share, compared to $521.8 million, or $3.02 per diluted share, in 2017.Operating income from the Motorcycles segment in 2018 was down $184.4 million compared to 2017 due primarily to lower wholesale motorcycleshipments and higher costs related to the impact of incremental tariffs, increased metals costs, voluntary recalls and restructuring activities.During 2018, incremental European Union and China tariffs were imposed on the Company's products shipped from the U.S., as well as U.S.incremental tariffs on certain items imported from certain international markets. The European Union tariffs on Harley-Davidson motorcycles exported fromthe U.S. increased from 6% to 31% effective June 22, 2018. By their current terms, these tariffs are scheduled to increase to 56% effective June 1, 2021. TheChina tariffs on Harley-Davidson products exported from the U.S. increased from 30% to 55%, effective August 23, 2018, and are set to remain in placeindefinitely. The Company also experienced increased costs for metals resulting from U.S. steel and aluminum tariffs, but the Company does not refer to thesecosts as part of incremental tariffs.Operating income from the Financial Services segment in 2018 was up $15.9 million or 5.8% compared to prior year, primarily due to higher revenuesand a lower provision for credit losses.The overall decline in the Company's consolidated operating income during 2018 was more than offset by lower income tax expense which decreased$186.9 million in 2018 primarily due to the favorable impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (2017 Tax Act) enacted in December 2017.Worldwide independent dealer retail sales of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles decreased 6.1% in 2018 compared to the prior year. U.S. retail salesfell 10.2% on continued weakness in the U.S. industry which declined 8.7% for the same period. Retail sales in international markets increased 0.4%compared to 2017. The Company expects the U.S. industry to remain challenged into 2019 and will continue to address these weak conditions. In the near-term, theCompany is introducing exciting new products and adding innovation that customers value on its new motorcycles. The Company will continue toaggressively manage supply and execute marketing efforts to encourage motorcycle trials and increase the conversion of these trials into sales. The Companyis also working to accelerate its strategy to build the next generation of Harley-Davidson riders through 2022 through its More Roads to Harley-Davidson(More Roads) plan. During 2018, it met or exceeded all of the More Roads plan milestones. The Company believes its More Roads plan is23designed to build the proper foundation and drive the right fundamentals to help steer the U.S. industry back to health and drive significant growth acrossinternational markets. The Company ended 2018 with over 52,000 more Harley-Davidson riders in the U.S compared to prior year (Source: IHS MarkitMotorcycles in Operation (MIO) data for On-Highway and Dual Purpose bikes in the U.S. as of Jan 1, 2019 compared to previous years of MIO back to 2002).Outlook(1)On January 29, 2019 the Company announced the following expectations for 2019.The Company expects the U.S. industry to continue to decline in 2019, but at a more tempered pace than in 2018. The Company expects internationalretail sales growth during 2019. As a result, in 2019, the Company expects to ship between 217,000 and 222,000 motorcycles to dealers which is downapproximately 3% to 5% from 2018.During 2019, the Company expects retail sales to be positively impacted by:•Focused investment in its strategy to increase global ridership and strengthen its dealer network,•Model year 2019 and 2020 motorcycles, and•Continued expansion of the international dealer network.However, it expects these positive impacts to be more than offset by strong headwinds, including:•A weak U.S. industry for new motorcycle sales,•A shift in U.S. rider preference toward smaller motorcycles, and•A marketplace crowded with highly competitive promotions, incentives and discounts.In 2019, the Company will continue to aggressively manage supply in line with demand, and the Company expects year-end U.S. dealer inventory ofnew motorcycles to be down compared to 2018.The Company expects Motorcycles segment gross margin as a percent of revenue to be lower than 2018 driven by a significant increase in incrementaltariffs, lower shipment volumes and unfavorable product mix, partially offset by aggressive cost reductions, including the benefit of $25 million to $30million of savings from the Company's Manufacturing Optimization plan. Refer to "Restructuring Plan Costs and Savings" below for further informationregarding the Manufacturing Optimization Plan.Incremental tariffs include incremental European Union and China tariffs imposed on the Company's products shipped from the U.S., as well asincremental U.S. tariffs on certain items imported from certain international markets. Incremental tariff costs exclude metals cost resulting from the U.S. steeland aluminum tariffs, although the Company does expect higher metals cost which are included in the 2019 gross margin guidance above.The Company's plant in Thailand came on-line in the third quarter of 2018. As previously disclosed with the announcement of this project in 2017, theCompany intends to utilize the Thailand facility to make more of the Company's products accessible to customers in targeted international markets. TheCompany intends those markets to include China, and certain Asian and European Union markets. The Company is currently making investments to increasethat facility’s capacity to serve those markets.As previously disclosed, Harley-Davidson expects the impact of incremental tariff costs to be approximately $100 million to $120 million in 2019.While Harley-Davidson’s preference has always been to serve the EU market from its U.S. manufacturing operations, the Company previously disclosed plansto mitigate the impact of the incremental European Union and China tariffs by the end of 2019 by serving those markets with motorcycles from its Thailandoperations.The Company is pursuing regulatory approval in the European Union to that end; however, approval is not guaranteed. As a result, the Company isconsidering multiple other options to serve the EU market should they be required. These other options to serve the EU market would most likely notmitigate the full impact of the current incremental European Union tariff by the end of 2019.The Company remains active in support of efforts to eliminate all tariffs imposed on motorcycles delivered from its U.S. manufacturing operations.24The Company expects selling, administrative and engineering expenses for the Motorcycles segment to be lower in 2019 behind aggressive costmanagement and lower recall costs. For 2019, the Company has reallocated a substantial amount of spending to invest in its More Roads plan to drive futuregrowth.For 2019, the Motorcycles segment operating margin as a percent of revenue is expected to be between 8.0% and 9.0%. Based on its current plans, theCompany expects Motorcycles segment operating income in 2020 to improve by approximately $170 to $200 million compared to 2019. This expectationassumes that the Company will complete its Manufacturing Optimization Plan and successfully execute its plan to mitigate the impact of incremental tariffsby the end of 2019.The Company expects Financial Services operating income in 2019 to be down compared to 2018 driven by a higher cost of debt and higherdepreciation associated with its 2018 investment in a new loan management system which went into service in January 2019.Capital expenditures in 2019 are expected to be $225 million to $245 million, which includes approximately $20 million to support the ManufacturingOptimization Plan. The Company anticipates it will have the ability to fund all capital expenditures in 2019 with cash flows generated by operations.The Company expects its 2019 full year effective tax rate will be approximately 24% to 25%. This guidance excludes the effect of potential futureadjustments, including items associated with any potential new tax legislation or audit settlements. In the first quarter of 2019, the Company expects to ship between 53,000 and 58,000 motorcycles, which is down approximately 9% to 17% comparedto the first quarter of 2018. Motorcycles segment operating margin as a percent of revenue is expected to be down approximately 6 percentage pointscompared to the first quarter of 2018. The Company expects results in the first quarter of 2019 to be adversely impacted by incremental tariffs, unfavorableproduct mix, a higher fixed cost per unit on lower production and shipments and unfavorable foreign currency, partially offset by lower restructuring costs. The 2019 first quarter shipment guidance reflects the impact of a brake recall on the Company's Street motorcycles recorded in the fourth quarter of2018. The Company expects that limited parts availability for repairing the impacted Street motorcycles will adversely impact retail sales in the first quarterof 2019 by approximately 2,500 motorcycles, primarily in international markets. The Company does not believe that the recall will have a meaningfulimpact on 2019 full-year retail sales.Restructuring Plan Costs and Savings(1) In January 2018, the Company commenced a significant, multi-year Manufacturing Optimization Plan anchored by the consolidation of its finalassembly plant in Kansas City, Missouri into its plant in York, Pennsylvania by mid-2019. As the operations are consolidated, the Company expectsapproximately 800 jobs will be eliminated with the closure of Kansas City operations and approximately 450 jobs will be added in York through 2019(Manufacturing Optimization Plan). As part of the Manufacturing Optimization Plan, the Company will also close its wheel operations in Adelaide, Australiaresulting in the elimination of approximately 90 jobs.In November 2018, the Company implemented a workforce reorganization plan (Reorganization Plan). As a result, approximately 70 employees left theCompany on an involuntary basis.25The following table summarizes the expected costs and savings associated with these restructuring plans.(in millions)2018 Actual 2019 Estimated 2020 Estimated TotalManufacturing Optimization Plan Cost related to temporary inefficiencies$ 12.9 $10 - $15 n/a $ 23 - $ 28Restructuring expenses$ 89.5 $40 - $45 n/a $129 - $134 $102.4 $50 - $60 $152 - $162% cash70% 70% 70%Reorganization Plan - restructuring expenses$3.9 $1 $5% cash100% 100% 100% Annual cash savings 2019 Estimated 2020 Estimated AnnualOngoingManufacturing Optimization Plan $25 - $30 $45 - $50 $65 - $75Reorganization Plan $7 $7 $7The current Manufacturing Optimization Plan cost estimate has been revised down from the most recent estimate by $3 million and $23 million at thelow and high ends of the range, respectively. In the first quarter of 2019, the Company expects Manufacturing Optimization Plan costs of approximately $20million.The Company expects restructuring expenses for the Manufacturing Optimization Plan to include the cost of employee termination benefits,accelerated depreciation, and other project implementation costs of $40 million to $41 million, $51 million to $53 million, and $38 million to $40 million,respectively. Restructuring expenses for the Reorganization Plan will consist of the cost of employee termination benefits. The timing of cash payments forrestructuring costs may not occur in the same fiscal period that the Company records the expense. Refer to Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated FinancialStatements for additional information concerning restructuring expenses.The Company expects total capital expenditures of $65 million associated with the Manufacturing Optimization Plan through 2019, including $20million in 2019. This is a decrease from the Company's most recent expectation of $75 million in capital expenditures.Results of Operations 2018 Compared to 2017Consolidated Results (in thousands, except earnings per share) 2018 2017 (Decrease)Increase %ChangeOperating income from Motorcycles and Related Products $422,363 $606,776 $(184,413) (30.4)%Operating income from Financial Services 291,160 275,305 15,855 5.8Operating income 713,523 882,081 (168,558) (19.1)Other income (expense), net 3,039 9,182 (6,143) (66.9)Investment income 951 3,580 (2,629) (73.4)Interest expense 30,884 31,004 (120) (0.4)Income before provision for income taxes 686,629 863,839 (177,210) (20.5)Provision for income taxes 155,178 342,080 (186,902) (54.6)Net income $531,451 $521,759 $9,692 1.9 %Diluted earnings per share $3.19 $3.02 $0.17 5.6 %Consolidated operating income was down 19.1% in 2018 driven by a decrease in operating income from the Motorcycles segment which was down$184.4 million compared to 2017. Operating income for the Financial Services segment increased by $15.9 million during 2018 as compared to 2017. Pleaserefer to the “Motorcycles and Related Products Segment” and “Financial Services Segment” discussions following for a more detailed discussion of thefactors affecting operating income.26Other income in 2018 was adversely impacted by higher amortization of actuarial losses following a 2018 first quarter remeasurement of the assets andobligations of the Company's qualified pension plan. Investment income was lower due to unfavorable changes in the fair value of marketable securities.The effective income tax rate for 2018 was 22.6% compared to 39.6% for 2017. The lower effective income tax rate was primarily due to the impact ofthe 2017 Tax Act. The 2017 Tax Act reduced the federal corporate income tax rate beginning in 2018 from 35% to 21%. In addition, because the 2017 TaxAct was enacted in 2017, the Company was required to remeasure its net deferred tax assets in 2017. The impact of remeasuring the deferred tax assetbalances combined with other adjustments related to the enactment of the 2017 Tax Act resulted in a non-cash income tax charge of $53.1 million in thefourth quarter of 2017.Diluted earnings per share were $3.19 in 2018, up 5.6% compared to 2017. Diluted earnings per share were positively impacted by the 1.9% increase innet income and also benefited from lower diluted weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted weighted average shares outstanding decreased from 172.9million in 2017 to 166.5 million in 2018 driven by the Company's repurchases of common stock.

Prior period Asia Pacific retail sales have been reclassified to conform to the current yearpresentation.Retail sales of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles in the U.S. were down 10.2% in 2018. Overall, U.S. retail sales of new Harley-Davidson motorcycleswere adversely impacted by the continued weak U.S. industry, which was down 8.7% compared to 2017. The Company believes that sales of newmotorcycles continued to be adversely impacted by soft used motorcycle prices and a shift in rider preferences toward smaller displacement motorcycles.Prices for used Harley-Davidson motorcycles in the U.S. remained at near historical low levels compared to new; however, the Company is encouragedby positive momentum in used motorcycle pricing. During 2018, third-party pricing services continued to publish higher retail values year-over-year for usedHarley-Davidson motorcycles. Wholesale prices of27used Harley-Davidson motorcycles at auction were also up during most of 2018 before falling slightly below year-ago levels in the fourth quarter.Additionally, for the sixth consecutive quarter, prices of used Harley-Davidson motorcycles in the Company's dealer network were higher in the fourthquarter of 2018 than the prior year quarter.Retail sales of used Harley-Davidson motorcycles in the U.S. were up through November 2018 compared to the prior year. Additionally, the share ofcombined new and used motorcycle registrations in the U.S. attributable to Harley-Davidson motorcycles was up in 2018 through November and has been upfor the last 9 consecutive years. (Source for data regarding used motorcycle sales: IHS Markit Used Registrations for On-Highway and Dual Purposemotorcycles with engines 601+cc in the U.S. from 2008 through November 2018). While the Company does not benefit directly from sales of usedmotorcycles, the Company believes used motorcycle sales are an indicator of brand health and provide prospects for future new motorcycle sales.The Company's U.S. market share of new 601+cc motorcycles for 2018 was 49.7%, down 1.0 percentage points compared to 2017 (Source: MotorcycleIndustry Council). The Company's U.S. market share reflects the adverse impact of a highly competitive marketplace and relatively strong growth in segmentsin which the Company does not currently compete. In the segments in which the Company does compete (Touring and Cruiser), which representapproximately 70% of the 601+cc market, the Company's market share was up 0.8 percentage points on a full-year basis.International retail sales of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles were up 0.4% in 2018. Retail sales in emerging markets were up 9.8% partially offset bylower retail sales in developed markets, which declined 2.7% during 2018. In developed markets, retail sales grew in western Europe; however, retail sales inJapan and Australia were down behind contracting industry sales and competitive new product introductions in segments outside of the Touring and Cruisersegments. Retail sales in Canada were also down 3.9% in 2018.The Company continued to expand its international dealer network during 2018, opening 56 new dealers during the year. The Company remainsconfident in and committed to the significant potential that international markets offer to Harley-Davidson. The Company believes it has the brand, productsand distribution to drive sustainable growth in international markets.(1) Motorcycle Registration Data - 601+cc(a) The following table includes industry retail motorcycle registration data: 2018 2017 (Decrease)Increase %ChangeUnited States(b) 263,750 288,802 (25,052) (8.7)%Europe(c) 397,669 390,619 7,050 1.8 %(a)Data includes on-road 601+cc models.

P&A and generalmerchandise sales were down due in large part to lower motorcycle shipments and lower retail motorcycle sales.•On average, wholesale prices for motorcycles shipped in 2018 were higher than in the prior year resulting in a favorable impact on revenue. Thepositive impact on revenue was partially offset by increased costs related to the additional content added to motorcycles shipped in 2018 ascompared to the prior year.•The favorable revenue impact from foreign currency was partially offset by higher net foreign currency losses due primarily to the remeasurement offoreign-denominated balance sheet accounts, as compared to the prior year.•Shipment mix changes resulted in a positive impact on gross profit resulting from favorable changes in the mix ofmotorcycle families, as well as the mix of models within motorcycle families.•Raw material prices were higher primarily due to increased steel and aluminum costs which includes the impacts of U.S. tariffs on steel andaluminum imports.•Manufacturing and other costs were negatively impacted by lower fixed cost absorption due to lower production, higher depreciation, the impact ofincremental tariffs and temporary inefficiencies associated with the Manufacturing Optimization Plan. In 2018, the impact of incremental tariffs was$23.7 million. Operating expenses were up compared to 2017 due to higher recall costs and increased spending on growth initiatives, as well as $93.4 millionof restructuring expense related primarily to the Manufacturing Optimization Plan.Financial Services SegmentSegment ResultsThe following table includes the condensed statements of operations for the Financial Services segment (in thousands): 2018 2017 Increase(Decrease) %ChangeInterest income $645,985 $633,113 $12,872 2.0 %Other income 101,108 97,151 3,957 4.1Securitization and servicing income 1,136 1,933 (797) (41.2)Financial Services revenue 748,229 732,197 16,032 2.2Interest expense 193,187 180,193 12,994 7.2Provision for credit losses 106,870 132,444 (25,574) (19.3)Operating expenses 157,012 144,255 12,757 8.8Financial Services expense 457,069 456,892 177 —Operating income from Financial Services $291,160 $275,305 $15,855 5.8 %Interest income was favorable in 2018 primarily due to higher average retail receivables.30Interest expense increased due to a higher cost of funds and higher average outstanding debt.The provision for credit losses decreased $25.6 million compared to 2017. The retail motorcycle provision decreased $27.1 million driven by a decreasein the retail reserve rate, as a result of lower retail credit losses, compared to an increase in the reserve rate during 2017. This favorability was partially offsetby a larger increase in retail receivables compared to 2017. The wholesale provision increased $1.9 million as a result of an increase in the wholesale reserverate.Annual losses on the Company's retail motorcycle loans were 1.76% during 2018 compared to 1.90% in 2017.

Operating income for the Financial Services segment in 2017 was slightly lower than the prior year, decreasing $0.2million as compared to 2016. Please refer to the “Motorcycles and Related Products Segment” and “Financial Services Segment” discussions following for amore detailed discussion of the factors affecting operating income. The effective income tax rate for 2017 was 39.6% compared to 32.4% for 2016. The higher effective income tax rate was primarily due to the impact ofthe 2017 Tax Act. The 2017 Tax Act reduced the federal corporate income tax rate beginning in 2018 from 35% to 21% and resulted in a remeasurement ofnet deferred tax assets in the fourth quarter of 2017. The impact of remeasuring the deferred tax asset balances combined with other adjustments related to theenactment of the 2017 Tax Act resulted in a non-cash income tax charge of $53.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2017.31Diluted earnings per share were $3.02 in 2017, down 21.1% compared to 2016. Diluted earnings per share were adversely impacted by the 24.6%decrease in net income, but benefited from lower diluted weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted weighted average shares outstanding decreasedfrom 180.5 million in 2016 to 172.9 million in 2017 driven by the Company's repurchases of common stock.Motorcycles Retail Sales and Registration DataHarley-Davidson Motorcycle Retail Sales(a) The following table includes retail unit sales of Harley-Davidson motorcycles: 2017 2016 Decrease %ChangeUnited States 147,972 161,658 (13,686) (8.5)% Europe(b) 39,773 39,942 (169) (0.4)EMEA - Other 5,162 5,896 (734) (12.4) Total EMEA 44,935 45,838 (903) (2.0) Asia Pacific(c) 21,393 23,245 (1,852) (8.0)Asia Pacific - Other 8,955 9,644 (689) (7.1)Total Asia Pacific 30,348 32,889 (2,541) (7.7) Latin America 9,452 9,701 (249) (2.6)Canada 10,081 10,203 (122) (1.2) Total International Retail Sales 94,816 98,631 (3,815) (3.9) Total Worldwide Retail Sales 242,788 260,289 (17,501) (6.7)%(a)Data source for retail sales figures shown above is new sales warranty and registration information provided by Harley-Davidson dealers and compiledby the Company.

Dealer inventory of newHarley-Davidson motorcycles in the U.S. at the end of 2017 was down approximately 3,000 motorcycles compared to the end of 2016.33Segment ResultsThe following table includes the condensed statements of operations for the Motorcycles segment (in thousands): 2017 2016 (Decrease)Increase %ChangeRevenue(a): Motorcycles $3,765,620 $4,052,999 $(287,379) (7.1)%Parts & Accessories 800,702 839,097 (38,395) (4.6)General Merchandise 262,776 284,583 (21,807) (7.7)Licensing 39,186 41,590 (2,404) (5.8)Other 46,743 53,107 (6,364) (12.0)Total revenue 4,915,027 5,271,376 (356,349) (6.8)Cost of goods sold 3,272,330 3,425,997 (153,667) (4.5)Gross profit 1,642,697 1,845,379 (202,682) (11.0)Selling & administrative expense 864,618 903,414 (38,796) (4.3)Engineering expense 171,303 171,201 102 0.1Operating expense 1,035,921 1,074,615 (38,694) (3.6)Operating income from Motorcycles $606,776 $770,764 $(163,988) (21.3)%(a)In connection with the adoption of ASU 2014-09, the Company has changed its presentation of disaggregated Motorcycles segment revenue and theprior period has been recast to reflect the new presentation.The following table includes the estimated impact of the significant factors affecting the comparability of net revenue, cost of goods sold and grossprofit from 2016 to 2017 (in millions): NetRevenue Cost ofGoodsSold GrossProfit2016 $5,272 $3,426 $1,846Volume (435) (264) (171)Price, net of related costs 120 59 61Foreign currency exchange rates and hedging 13 (3) 16Shipment mix (55) (18) (37)Raw material prices — 17 (17)Manufacturing and other costs — 55 (55)Total (357) (154) (203)2017 $4,915 $3,272 $1,643The following factors affected the comparability of net revenue, cost of goods sold and gross profit from 2016 to 2017:•The decrease in volume was due to lower wholesale motorcycle shipments, as well as lower P&A and general merchandise sales. P&A and generalmerchandise sales were down due in large part to lower motorcycle shipments and lower retail motorcycle sales.•On average, wholesale prices for motorcycles shipped in 2017 were higher than in the prior year resulting in a favorable impact on revenue. Thepositive impact on revenue was partially offset by increased costs related to the additional content added to motorcycles shipped in 2017 ascompared to last year.•Revenue was positively impacted by slightly stronger weighted-average foreign currency rates, relative to the U.S. dollar, as compared to last year.In addition, cost was favorably impacted by a higher net gain resulting from the remeasurement of foreign-denominated balance sheet accounts netof losses incurred on hedging activities, as compared to last year.•Shipment mix changes resulted in a negative impact on gross profit resulting from unfavorable changes in the mix of models within motorcyclefamilies as well as changes in P&A product mix.•Raw material prices were higher due primarily to increased steel and aluminum costs.•Manufacturing costs were negatively impacted by lower fixed cost absorption due to lower production volumes, higher model-year startup costs andhigher depreciation.34Operating expense which consists of selling, administrative and engineering expenses, was down compared to 2016 due primarily to aggressive costmanagement and lower employee costs.Financial Services SegmentSegment ResultsThe following table includes the condensed statements of operations for the Financial Services segment (in thousands): 2017 2016 Increase(Decrease) %ChangeInterest income $633,113 $628,432 $4,681 0.7 %Other income 97,151 85,788 11,363 13.2Securitization and servicing income 1,933 10,862 (8,929) (82.2)Financial Services revenue 732,197 725,082 7,115 1.0Interest expense 180,193 173,756 6,437 3.7Provision for credit losses 132,444 136,617 (4,173) (3.1)Operating expense 144,255 139,179 5,076 3.6Financial Services expense 456,892 449,552 7,340 1.6Operating income from Financial Services $275,305 $275,530 $(225) (0.1)%Interest income was favorable in 2017 due to higher average retail receivables partially offset by lower average wholesale receivables and lower averageyields across the portfolios. Other income was favorable due to increased licensing revenue and investment income. Securitization and servicing income waslower primarily due to a $9.3 million gain on the sale of finance receivables recognized as a result of a 2016 off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization.There was no comparable transaction in 2017.Interest expense increased due to a higher cost of funds, partially offset by lower average outstanding debt.The provision for credit losses decreased $4.2 million compared to 2016. The retail motorcycle provision decreased $6.5 million during 2017 as a resultof a smaller increase in the retail reserve rate and lower receivables partially offset by higher retail credit losses. Credit losses were higher as a result ofunfavorable performance across the retail motorcycle portfolio. The wholesale provision increased $1.0 million due to a smaller decrease in the wholesalereserve rate compared to 2016.Annual losses on the Company's retail motorcycle loans were 1.90% during 2017 compared to 1.83% in 2016. The 30-day delinquency rate for retailmotorcycle loans at December 31, 2017 decreased to 4.21% from 4.25% at December 31, 2016.Changes in the allowance for credit losses on finance receivables were as follows (in thousands): 2017 2016Balance, beginning of period $173,343 $147,178Provision for credit losses 132,444 136,617Charge-offs, net of recoveries (113,316) (107,161)Other (a) — (3,291)Balance, end of period $192,471 $173,343(a)Related to the sale of finance receivables during 2016 with a principal balance of $301.8 million through an off-balance sheet asset-backedsecuritization transaction (see Note 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information).At December 31, 2017, the allowance for credit losses on finance receivables was $186.3 million for retail receivables and $6.2 million for wholesalereceivables. At December 31, 2016, the allowance for credit losses on finance receivables was $166.8 million for retail receivables and $6.5 million forwholesale receivables. The Company's periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses on finance receivables is generally based on the Company's pastloan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, current economic conditions and the estimated value of any underlying collateral.35Other MattersNew Accounting Standards Not Yet AdoptedRefer to Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of new accountingstandards that will become effective for the Company in 2019 and 2020.Critical Accounting EstimatesThe Company’s financial statements are based on the selection and application of significant accounting policies, which require management to makesignificant estimates and assumptions. Management believes that the following are some of the more critical judgment areas in the application of accountingpolicies that currently affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Management has discussed the development and selection of thesecritical accounting estimates with the Audit and Finance Committee of the Board of Directors.Allowance for Credit Losses on Retail Finance Receivables – The allowance for uncollectible accounts is maintained at a level management believes isadequate to cover the losses of principal in the existing retail finance receivables portfolio.The retail portfolio consists of a large number of small balance, homogeneous finance receivables. The Company performs a periodic and systematiccollective evaluation of the adequacy of the retail allowance. The Company utilizes loss forecast models which consider a variety of factors including, butnot limited to, historical loss trends, origination or vintage analysis, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, the value of the underlying collateral, recoveryrates and current economic conditions including items such as unemployment rates.Product Warranty and Recalls – Estimated warranty costs are accrued at the time of sale and are based on a combination of historical claim cost dataand other known factors that may affect future warranty claims. The estimated costs associated with voluntary recalls are accrued in the period thatmanagement approves and commits to the recall. The accrued cost of a recall is based on an estimate of the cost to repair each affected motorcycle and thenumber of motorcycles expected to be repaired based on historical data concerning the percentage of affected customers that take advantage of recall offers.In the case of both warranty and recall costs, as actual experience becomes available it is used to update the accruals.The factors affecting actual warranty and recall costs can be volatile. As a result, actual warranty claims experience and recall costs may differ fromestimates, which could lead to material changes in the Company’s accrued warranty and recall costs. The Company’s warranty and recall liabilities arediscussed further in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.Pensions and Other Postretirement Healthcare Benefits – The Company has a defined benefit pension plan and postretirement healthcare benefit plans,which cover employees of the Motorcycles segment. The Company also has unfunded supplemental employee retirement plan agreements (SERPA) withcertain employees, which were instituted to replace benefits lost under the Tax Revenue Reconciliation Act of 1993.U.S. GAAP requires that companies recognize in their statement of financial position a liability for defined benefit pension and postretirement plansthat are underfunded or an asset for defined benefit pension and postretirement benefit plans that are overfunded.Pension, SERPA and postretirement healthcare obligations and costs are calculated through actuarial valuations. The valuation of benefit obligationsand net periodic benefit costs relies on key assumptions including discount rates, mortality, long-term expected return on plan assets, future compensationand healthcare cost trend rates.The Company determines its discount rate assumptions by referencing high-quality long-term bond rates that are matched to the duration of its ownbenefit obligations. Based on this analysis, the Company increased the weighted-average discount rate for pension and SERPA obligations from 3.71% as ofDecember 31, 2017 to 4.38% as of December 31, 2018. The Company increased the weighted-average discount rate for postretirement healthcare obligationsfrom 3.52% to 4.23%. The Company determines its healthcare trend assumption for the postretirement healthcare obligation by considering factors such asestimated healthcare inflation, the utilization of healthcare benefits and changes in the health of plan participants. Based on the Company’s assessment ofthis data as of December 31, 2018, the Company set its healthcare cost trend rate at 6.75% as of December 31, 2018. The Company expects the healthcarecost trend rate to reach its ultimate rate of 5.00% by 2026.(1) These assumption changes were reflected immediately in the benefit obligation and will beamortized into net periodic benefit costs over future periods.36Plan assets are measured at fair value and are subject to market volatility. In estimating the expected return on plan assets, the Company considers thehistorical returns on plan assets, adjusted to reflect the current view of the long-term investment market.Changes in the funded status of defined benefit pension and postretirement benefit plans resulting from the difference between assumptions and actualresults are initially recognized in other comprehensive income and amortized to expense over future periods. The following information is provided toillustrate the sensitivity of pension and postretirement healthcare obligations and costs to changes in these major assumptions (in thousands): Amounts basedon currentassumptions Impact of a 1%decrease in thediscount rate Impact of a 1%decrease in theexpectedreturn on assets Impact of a 1%increase in thehealthcarecost trend rate2018 Net periodic benefit cost Pension and SERPA $32,817 $28,330 $20,322 n/aPostretirement healthcare $3,664 $1,196 $1,955 $1,5562018 Benefit obligations Pension and SERPA $1,984,708 $319,213 n/a n/aPostretirement healthcare $286,574 $23,298 n/a $8,613This information should not be viewed as predictive of future amounts. The analysis of the impact of a 1% change in the table above does not take intoaccount the cost related to special termination benefits. The calculation of pension, SERPA and postretirement healthcare obligations and costs is based onmany factors in addition to those discussed here. This information should be considered in combination with the information provided in Note 14 of theNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements.Income Taxes – The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (Topic 740). Deferred tax assets andliabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets andliabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and other loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted taxrates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and numerous foreign jurisdictions. These tax laws and regulations are complex and significantjudgment is required in determining the Company’s worldwide provision for income taxes and recording the related deferred tax assets and liabilities.In the ordinary course of the Company’s business, there are transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Accruals forunrecognized tax benefits are provided for in accordance with the requirements of Topic 740. An unrecognized tax benefit represents the difference betweenthe recognition of benefits related to items for income tax reporting purposes and financial reporting purposes. The unrecognized tax benefit is includedwithin other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company has a liability for interest and penalties on exposure items, if applicable,which is recorded as a component of the overall income tax provision. The Company is regularly audited by tax authorities as a normal course of business.Although the outcome of tax audits is always uncertain, the Company believes that it has appropriate support for the positions taken on its tax returns andthat its annual tax provision includes amounts sufficient to pay any assessments. Nonetheless, the amounts ultimately paid, if any, upon resolution of theissues raised by the taxing authorities may differ materially from the amounts accrued for each year.Contractual ObligationsA summary of the Company’s expected payments for significant contractual obligations as of December 31, 2018 is as follows (in thousands): 2019 2020-2021 2022-2023 Thereafter TotalPrincipal payments on debt $2,717,597 $3,133,704 $1,018,393 $750,000 $7,619,694Interest payments on debt 182,532 226,407 109,026 336,750 854,715Operating lease payments 20,416 29,897 15,675 7,988 73,976 $2,920,545 $3,390,008 $1,143,094 $1,094,738 $8,548,385Interest for floating rate instruments assumes December 31, 2018 rates remain constant.37As of December 31, 2018, the Company generally had no significant purchase obligations, other than those created in the ordinary course of business.Purchase orders issued for inventory and supplies used in product manufacturing generally do not become firm commitments until 90 days prior to expecteddelivery and can be modified to a certain extent until 30 days prior to expected delivery.The Company has long-term obligations related to its pension, SERPA and postretirement healthcare plans at December 31, 2018. The Company’sretirement plan obligations and expected future contributions and payments related to these plans are provided in Note 14 of the Notes to ConsolidatedFinancial Statements.As described in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company has unrecognized tax benefits of $61.4 million and accruedinterest and penalties of $27.7 million as of December 31, 2018. However, the Company cannot make a reasonably reliable estimate of the period of cashsettlement for either the liability for unrecognized tax benefits or accrued interest and penalties.Commitments and ContingenciesThe Company is subject to lawsuits and other claims related to environmental, product and other matters. In determining costs to accrue related to theseitems, the Company carefully analyzes cases and considers the likelihood of adverse judgments or outcomes, as well as the potential range of possible loss.Any amounts accrued for these matters are monitored on an ongoing basis and are updated based on new developments or new information as it becomesavailable for each matter.Environmental Protection Agency Notice:In December 2009, the Company received formal, written requests for information from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)regarding: (i) certificates of conformity for motorcycle emissions and related designations and labels, (ii) aftermarket parts, and (iii) warranty claims onemissions related components. The Company promptly submitted written responses to the EPA’s inquiry and has engaged in information exchanges anddiscussions with the EPA. In August 2016, the Company entered into a consent decree with the EPA regarding these issues, and the consent decree wassubsequently revised in July 2017 (the Settlement). In the Settlement, the Company agreed to, among other things, pay a fine, and not sell tuning productsunless they are approved by the EPA or California Air Resources Board. In December 2017, the EPA filed the Settlement with the U.S. District Court for theDistrict of Columbia for the purpose of obtaining court approval of the Settlement. Three amicus briefs opposing portions of the Settlement were filed withthe court by the deadline of January 31, 2018. On March 1, 2018, the Company and the EPA each filed separate response briefs. The Company is awaiting thecourt's decision on whether or not to finalize the Settlement. The Company has an accrual associated with this matter which is included in accrued liabilitiesin the consolidated balance sheets, and as a result, if it is finalized, the Settlement would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financialcondition or results of operations. The Settlement is not final until it is approved by the court, and if it is not approved by the court, the Company cannotreasonably estimate the impact of any remedies the EPA might seek beyond the Company's current reserve for this matter.York Environmental Matters:The Company is involved with government agencies and groups of potentially responsible parties related to a matter involving the cleanup of soil andgroundwater contamination at its York, Pennsylvania facility. The York facility was formerly used by the U.S. Navy and AMF prior to the purchase of theYork facility by the Company from AMF in 1981. The Company has been working with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP)since 1986 and with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in undertaking environmental investigation and remediation activities, including asite-wide remedial investigation/feasibility study (RI/FS).In January 1995, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the Agreement) with the Navy, and the parties amended the Agreement in 2013 toaddress ordnance and explosive waste. The Agreement calls for the Navy and the Company to contribute amounts into a trust equal to 53% and 47%,respectively, of costs associated with environmental investigation and remediation activities at the York facility (Response Costs). The trust administers thepayment of the Response Costs incurred at the York facility as covered by the Agreement.The Company has an accrual for its estimate of its share of the future Response Costs at the York facility which is included in other long-term liabilitiesin the consolidated balance sheets. While the work on the RI/FS is now complete and the final remedy was proposed in late 2018, it has not yet beenapproved, and given the uncertainty that exists concerning the nature and scope of additional environmental remediation that may ultimately be requiredunder the approved final remedy, the Company is unable to make a reasonable estimate of those additional costs, if any, that may result.38The estimate of the Company's future Response Costs that will be incurred at the York facility is based on reports of independent environmentalconsultants retained by the Company, the actual costs incurred to date, and the estimated costs to complete the necessary investigation and remediationactivities.Product Liability Matters:The Company is involved in product liability suits related to the operation of its business. The Company accrues for claim exposures that are probableof occurrence and can be reasonably estimated. The Company also maintains insurance coverage for product liability exposures. The Company believes thatits accruals and insurance coverage are adequate and that product liability suits will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidatedfinancial statements.(1) Off-Balance Sheet ArrangementsThe Company participates in asset-backed financing both through asset-backed securitization transactions and through asset-backed commercial paperconduit facilities. In the Company's asset-backed financing programs, the Company transfers retail motorcycle finance receivables to special purpose entities(SPE), which are considered Variable Interest Entities (VIE) under U.S. GAAP. Each SPE then converts those assets into cash, through the issuance of debt.The Company retains servicing rights for all of the retail motorcycle finance receivables transferred to SPEs as part of an asset-backed financing.The SPEs are separate legal entities that assume the risks and rewards of ownership of the retail motorcycle finance receivables they hold. The assets ofthe VIEs are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company’s creditors. The Company’s economic exposure related to the VIEs is generallylimited to restricted cash reserve accounts, retained interests and ordinary representations and warranties and related covenants. The VIEs have a limited lifeand generally terminate upon final distribution of amounts owed to investors.The accounting treatment for asset-backed financings depends on the terms of the related transaction and the Company’s continuing involvement withthe VIE. Most of the Company’s asset-backed financings do not meet the criteria to be treated as a sale for accounting purposes because, in addition toretaining servicing rights, the Company retains a financial interest in the VIE in the form of a debt security. These transactions are treated as securedborrowings. As secured borrowings, the retail motorcycle finance receivables remain on the balance sheet with a corresponding obligation reflected as debt.During the second quarter of 2016, the Company sold finance receivables with a principal balance of $301.8 million into a securitization VIE. Thetransaction met the criteria to be treated as a sale for accounting purposes and resulted in an off-balance sheet arrangement because the Company did notretain any financial interest in the VIE beyond servicing rights and ordinary representations and warranties and related covenants. Upon sale, the retailmotorcycle finance receivables were removed from the Company’s balance sheet and a gain of $9.3 million was recognized in Financial Services revenue. Formore information, see Note 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.Liquidity and Capital Resources as of December 31, 2018Over the long-term, the Company expects that its business model will continue to generate cash that will allow it to invest in the business, fund futuregrowth opportunities and return value to shareholders.(1) The Company believes the Motorcycles operations will continue to be primarily funded throughcash flows generated by operations.(1) The Company’s Financial Services operations will continue to be funded with unsecured debt, unsecured commercialpaper, asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities, committed unsecured bank facilities and asset-backed securitizations.39The Company’s strategy is to maintain a minimum of twelve months of its projected liquidity needs through a combination of cash and cashequivalents and availability under credit facilities. The following table summarizes the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and availability under creditand conduit facilities (in thousands): December 31, 2018Cash and cash equivalents $1,203,766Current marketable securities 10,007Total cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities 1,213,773 Credit facilities 434,190Asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduit facilities (a) 600,000Asset-backed Canadian commercial paper conduit facility (a) 5,443Total availability under credit and conduit facilities 1,039,633Total $2,253,406(a)Includes facilities expiring in the next twelve months which the Company expects to renew prior to expiration.(1) The Company recognizes that it must continue to adjust its business to changes in the lending environment. The Company intends to continue with adiversified funding profile through a combination of short-term and long-term funding vehicles and to pursue a variety of sources to obtain cost-effectivefunding.(1) The Financial Services operations could be negatively affected by higher costs of funding and the increased difficulty of raising, or potentialinability to raise, funding in the short-term and long-term capital markets.(1) These negative consequences could in turn adversely affect the Company’sbusiness and results of operations in various ways, including through higher costs of capital, reduced funds available through its Financial Servicesoperations to provide loans to independent dealers and their retail customers, and dilution to existing shareholders through the use of alternative sources ofcapital.Cash Flow ActivityThe following table summarizes the cash flow activity of continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 (in thousands): 2018 2017 2016Net cash provided by operating activities $1,205,921 $1,005,061 $1,174,339Net cash used by investing activities (662,269) (562,468) (392,731)Net cash used by financing activities (14,763) (550,261) (777,885)Effect of exchange rate changes on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash (15,351) 26,747 (9,443)Net increase (decrease) in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $513,538 $(80,921) $(5,720)Operating Activities The increase in operating cash flow in 2018 compared to 2017 was primarily due to favorable changes in working capital and lower cash outflows forretirement plans. There were no voluntary or required qualified pension plan or postretirement healthcare plan contributions in 2018. In 2017, the Companyvoluntarily contributed $25.0 million to its qualified pension plan and $15.0 million to its postretirement healthcare plans. The Company expects that noqualified pension plan contributions will be required in 2019.(1) The Company also expects that 2019 postretirement healthcare plan benefits and benefitsdue under the SERPA will be paid by the Company or funded with plan assets.(1) The Company’s expected future contributions and benefit payments relatedto these plans are provided in Note 14 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.(1) The decrease in operating cash flow in 2017 compared to 2016 was due primarily to lower net income, unfavorable changes in working capital andhigher retirement plan contributions. These negative impacts were partially offset by lower net cash outflows for wholesale lending.Investing Activities40The Company’s investing activities consist primarily of capital expenditures, net changes in retail finance receivables and short-term investmentactivity. Capital expenditures were $213.5 million, $206.3 million and $256.3 million during 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.Net cash outflows for finance receivables in 2018, which consisted primarily of retail finance receivables, were $63.5 million higher than 2017primarily as a result of an increase in retail motorcycle loan originations during 2018. Conversely, 2017 net cash outflows for finance receivables were$125.8 million lower than 2016 primarily due to lower retail motorcycle loan originations during 2017.Cash (outflow) / inflow from purchases and maturities of marketable securities were $(10.0) million, $6.9 million and $40.0 million in 2018, 2017 and2016, respectively.During 2016, the Company completed a sale of finance receivables through an off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization. The proceeds from the saleof finance receivables, which positively impacted cash flow, were $312.6 million. There were no comparable transactions in 2018 or 2017.Financing ActivitiesThe Company’s financing activities consist primarily of dividend payments, share repurchases and debt activity.The Company paid dividends of $1.48 per share totaling $245.8 million during 2018, $1.46 per share totaling $251.9 million during 2017 and $1.40per share totaling $252.3 million during 2016.Cash outflows from share repurchases were $390.6 million, $465.3 million and $465.3 million for 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Sharerepurchases during 2018, 2017 and 2016 included 9.4 million, 8.8 million and 9.9 million shares of common stock, respectively, related to discretionaryshare repurchases and shares of common stock that employees surrendered to satisfy withholding taxes in connection with the vesting of restricted stockawards. As of December 31, 2018, there were 16.4 million shares remaining on board-approved share repurchase authorizations.Financing cash flows related to debt activity resulted in net cash inflows / (outflows) of $618.1 million, $155.5 million and $(78.3) million for 2018,2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company’s total outstanding debt consisted of the following as of December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 (in thousands): 2018 2017 2016Unsecured commercial paper $1,135,810 $1,273,482 $1,055,708Asset-backed Canadian commercial paper conduit facility 155,951 174,779 149,338Asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduit facilities 582,717 279,457 —Medium-term notes, net 4,887,007 4,165,706 4,064,940Senior unsecured notes, net 742,624 741,961 741,306Asset-backed securitization debt, net 95,167 352,624 796,275Total debt $7,599,276 $6,988,009 $6,807,567To access the debt capital markets, the Company relies on credit rating agencies to assign short-term and long-term credit ratings. Generally, lowercredit ratings result in higher borrowing costs and reduced access to debt capital markets. A credit rating agency may change or withdraw the Company’sratings based on its assessment of the Company’s current and future ability to meet interest and principal repayment obligations. The Company’s short-termdebt ratings affect its ability to issue unsecured commercial paper. The Company’s short- and long-term debt ratings as of December 31, 2018 were asfollows: Short-Term Long-Term OutlookMoody’s P2 A3 StableStandard & Poor’s A2 BBB+ NegativeFitch F1 A StableCredit Facilities – In April 2018, the Company entered into a $780.0 million five-year credit facility to replace the $675.0 million five-year creditfacility that was due to mature in April 2019 and also terminated the $100.0 million 364-day credit facility that would have matured at the end of April 2018.The new five-year credit facility matures in April 2023. The Company also has a $765.0 million five-year credit facility which matures in April 2021. The twofive-year credit facilities (together, the Global Credit Facilities) bear interest at variable rates, which may be adjusted upward or downward depending oncertain criteria, such as credit ratings. The Global Credit Facilities also require the Company to pay a fee based on the average41daily unused portion of the aggregate commitments under the Global Credit Facilities. The Global Credit Facilities are committed facilities primarily used tosupport the Company's unsecured commercial paper program. In May 2018, the Company renewed its $25.0 million 364-day credit facility that was due tomature that month. The $25.0 million credit facility bears interest at variable interest rates, and the Company pays a fee based on the unused portion of the$25.0 million commitment. This credit facility matures in May 2019.Unsecured Commercial Paper – Subject to limitations, the Company could issue unsecured commercial paper of up to $1.55 billion as of December 31,2018 supported by the Global Credit Facilities, as discussed above. Outstanding unsecured commercial paper may not exceed the unused portion of theGlobal Credit Facilities. Maturities may range up to 365 days from the issuance date. The Company intends to repay unsecured commercial paper as itmatures with additional unsecured commercial paper or through other means, such as borrowing under the Global Credit Facilities, borrowing under its asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduit facilities or through the use of operating cash flow and cash on hand.(1) Medium-Term Notes – The Company has the following medium-term notes (collectively, the Notes) issued and outstanding at December 31, 2018 (inthousands): Principal Amount Rate Issue Date Maturity Date$600,000 2.25% January 2016 January 2019$150,000 Floating-rate(a) March 2017 March 2019$600,000 2.40% September 2014 September 2019$600,000 2.15% February 2015 February 2020$450,000 Floating-rate(b) May 2018 May 2020$350,000 2.40% March 2017 June 2020$600,000 2.85% January 2016 January 2021$450,000 Floating-rate(c) November 2018 March 2021$350,000 3.55% May 2018 May 2021$400,000 2.55% June 2017 June 2022$350,000 3.35% February 2018 February 2023(a)Floating interest rate based on LIBOR plus 35 bps.(b)Floating interest rate based on LIBOR plus 50 bps.

The Company utilized an interest rate swap designated as a cash flow hedge to convert this froma floating rate basis to a fixed rate basis. Refer to Note 10 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.The fixed-rate Notes provide for semi-annual interest payments and the floating-rate Notes provide for quarterly interest payments. Principal on theNotes is due at maturity. Unamortized discount and debt issuance costs on the Notes reduced the outstanding balance by $13.0 million and $11.8 million atDecember 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Senior Unsecured Notes – In July 2015, the Company issued $750.0 million of senior unsecured notes in an underwritten offering.

The Companyused the proceeds from the debt to repurchase shares of its common stock in 2015.On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Canadian Commercial Paper Conduit Facility – The Company has a revolving facility agreement (Canadian Conduit)with a Canadian bank-sponsored asset-backed commercial paper conduit. Under the agreement, the Canadian Conduit is contractually committed, at theCompany's option, to purchase from the Company eligible Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables for proceeds up to C$220.0 million. Thetransferred assets are restricted as collateral for the payment of the debt. The terms for this facility provide for interest on the outstanding principal based onprevailing market interest rates plus a specified margin. The Canadian Conduit also provides for a program fee and an unused commitment fee based on theunused portion of the total aggregate commitment of C$220.0 million. There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt is reduced monthly as availablecollections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Upon expiration of the Canadian Conduit, any outstanding principal willcontinue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables is approximately 5 years. Unlessearlier terminated42or extended by mutual agreement between the Company and the lenders, as of December 31, 2018, the Canadian Conduit has an expiration date of June 28,2019.The following table includes quarterly transfers of Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables to the Canadian Conduit and the respective proceeds(in thousands): 2018 2017 Transfers Proceeds Transfers ProceedsFirst quarter$7,600 $6,200 $6,300 $5,500Second quarter38,900 32,200 14,200 12,400Third quarter— — — —Fourth quarter39,000 32,200 84,900 69,100 $85,500 $70,600 $105,400 $87,000 On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed U.S. Commercial Paper Conduit Facilities VIE – The Company has agreements with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits under which it may transfer U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE, which in turn may issue debt tothose third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. On November 30, 2018, the Company renewed its existing $600.0 millionrevolving facility agreement with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. Also on that date, the Company amended itsexisting $300.0 million revolving facility agreement with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits, increasing the aggregatecommitment to $600.0 million. The aggregate commitment under this agreement will be reduced monthly as collections on the related finance receivablesare applied to the outstanding principal until the outstanding principal balance is less than or equal to $300.0 million, at which point the aggregatecommitment will equal $300.0 million. Availability under the revolving facilities (together, the U.S. Conduit Facilities) is based on, among other things, theamount of eligible U.S. retail motorcycle receivables held by the relevant SPE as collateral.The following table includes quarterly transfers of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to the U.S. Conduit and the respective proceeds (inthousands): 2018 2017 Transfers Proceeds Transfers ProceedsFirst quarter$32,900 $29,300 $333,400 $300,000Second quarter59,100 53,300 28,200 24,000Third quarter— — 34,100 29,600Fourth quarter400,200 356,800 34,000 29,700 $492,200 $439,400 $429,700 $383,300The terms for this debt provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing commercial paper rates or LIBOR to the extent the advanceis not funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper plus, in each case, a program fee based on outstanding principal. The U.S.Conduit Facilities also provide for an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment. There is no amortizationschedule; however, the debt will be reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Uponexpiration of the U.S. Conduit Facilities, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expectedremaining term of the related receivables held by the SPE is approximately 5 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement of theCompany and the lenders, the U.S. Conduit Facilities have an expiration date of November 29, 2019.Asset-Backed Securitization VIEs – For all of its asset-backed securitization transactions, the Company transfers U.S. retail motorcycle financereceivables to separate VIEs, which in turn issue secured notes with various maturities and interest rates to investors. All of the notes held by the VIEs aresecured by future collections of the purchased U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables. The U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables included in the asset-backed securitization transactions are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company's creditors until the associated debt and otherobligations are satisfied. Restricted cash balances held by the VIEs are used only to support the asset-backed securitizations.The accounting treatment for asset-backed securitizations depends on the terms of the related transaction and the Company’s continuing involvementwith the VIE. Most of the Company’s asset-backed securitizations do not meet the criteria43to be accounted for as a sale because, in addition to retaining servicing rights, the Company retains a financial interest in the VIE in the form of a debtsecurity. These transactions are treated as secured borrowings. As secured borrowings, the retail motorcycle finance receivables remain on the balance sheetwith a corresponding obligation reflected as debt. There is no amortization schedule for the secured notes; however, the debt is reduced monthly as availablecollections on the related retail motorcycle finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. The secured notes’ contractual lives have variousmaturities during 2022.There were no on or off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions during 2018 or 2017.Support Agreement - The Company has a support agreement with HDFS whereby, if required, the Company agrees to provide HDFS with financialsupport to maintain HDFS’ fixed-charge coverage at 1.25 and minimum net worth of $40.0 million. Support may be provided at the Company’s option ascapital contributions or loans. Accordingly, certain debt covenants may restrict the Company’s ability to withdraw funds from HDFS outside the normalcourse of business. No amount has ever been provided to HDFS under the support agreement.Operating and Financial Covenants – HDFS and the Company are subject to various operating and financial covenants related to the credit facilitiesand various operating covenants under the Notes and the U.S. and Canadian asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities. The more significantcovenants are described below.The operating covenants limit the Company’s and HDFS’ ability to:•Assume or incur certain liens;•Participate in certain mergers or consolidations; and•Purchase or hold margin stock.Under the current financial covenants of the Global Credit Facilities, the ratio of HDFS' consolidated debt, excluding secured debt, to HDFS'consolidated shareholders' equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), cannot exceed 10.0 to 1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. Inaddition, the ratio of the Company's consolidated debt to the Company's consolidated debt and consolidated shareholders’ equity (where the Company'sconsolidated debt in each case excludes that of HDFS and its subsidiaries, and the Company's consolidated shareholders’ equity excludes accumulated othercomprehensive income (loss)), cannot exceed 0.7 to 1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. No financial covenants are required under the Notes or the U.S. orCanadian asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities.At December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, HDFS and the Company remained in compliance with all of the then existing covenants.Cautionary StatementsThe Company intends that certain matters discussed in this report are "forward-looking statements" intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liabilityestablished by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Further, actual foreign currency exchange rates may vary from underlying assumptions. Other factors are described under the caption "Risk Factors" inItem 1A of this report. Many of these risk factors are impacted by the current changing capital, credit and retail markets and the Company's ability to managethrough inconsistent economic conditions.The Company's ability to sell its motorcycles and related products and services and to meet its financial expectations also depends on the ability of theCompany's independent dealers to sell its motorcycles and related products and services to retail customers. The Company depends on the capability andfinancial capacity of its independent dealers to develop and implement effective retail sales plans to create demand for the motorcycles and related productsand services they purchase from the Company. In addition, the Company's independent dealers and distributors may experience difficulties in operating theirbusinesses and selling Harley-Davidson motorcycles and related products and services as a result of weather, economic conditions or other factors.In recent years, HDFS has experienced historically low levels of retail credit losses, but there is no assurance that this will continue. The Companybelieves that HDFS' retail credit losses may increase over time due to changing consumer credit behavior and HDFS' efforts to increase prudently structuredloan approvals to sub-prime borrowers, as well as actions that the Company has taken and could take that impact motorcycle values.Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market RiskThe Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign exchange rates, commodity prices and interest rates. To reduce such risks, theCompany selectively uses derivative financial instruments. All hedging transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to regularly reviewed policies andprocedures, which prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative trading purposes. Sensitivity analysis is used to manage and monitor foreignexchange and interest rate risk.The Company sells its products internationally and in most markets those sales are made in the foreign country’s local currency. As a result, theCompany’s earnings are affected by fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currency. The Company’s most significant foreign currencyrisk relates to the Euro, the Australian dollar, the Japanese yen, the Brazilian real, the Canadian dollar, the British pound and the Mexican peso. TheCompany utilizes foreign currency contracts to mitigate the effect of certain currencies' fluctuations on earnings. The foreign currency contracts are enteredinto with banks and allow the Company to exchange a specified amount of foreign currency for U.S. dollars at a future date, based on a fixed exchange rate.At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the notional U.S. dollar value of outstanding Euro, Australian dollar, Japanese yen, Brazilian real, Canadian dollar andMexican peso foreign currency contracts was $443.0 million and $675.7 million, respectively. The Company estimates that a uniform 10% weakening in thevalue of the U.S. dollar relative to the currencies45underlying these contracts would result in a decrease in the fair value of the contracts of approximately $39.9 million and $67.2 million as of December 31,2018 and 2017, respectively. Further disclosure relating to the fair value of derivative financial instruments is included in Note 10 of the Notes toConsolidated Financial Statements.The Company's earnings are affected by changes in the prices of commodities used in the production of motorcycles. The Company uses derivativeinstruments on a limited basis to hedge the prices of certain commodities. At December 31, 2018, the notional value of these instruments was $6.1 millionand their fair value was a net liability of $0.5 million. As of December 31, 2017, the notional value of these instruments was $5.4 million and their fair valuewas a net asset of $0.3 million. The potential decrease in fair value of these contracts from a 10% adverse change in the underlying commodity prices wouldnot be significant.HDFS’ earnings are affected by changes in interest rates. HDFS’ interest-rate sensitive financial instruments include finance receivables, debt andinterest rate derivatives. HDFS utilizes interest rate swaps to reduce the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on its debt. As of December 31, 2018, HDFShad interest rate swaps outstanding with a notional value of $900.0 million. HDFS estimates that a 10% decrease in interest rates would result in a $8.3million decrease in the fair value of the agreements. There were no interest rate swaps outstanding as of December 31, 2017.HDFS has short-term commercial paper and debt issued through the commercial paper conduit facilities that is subject to changes in interest rates. HDFSestimates that a one-percentage point increase in the interest rate on commercial paper and debt issued through the commercial paper conduit facilities wouldincrease Financial Services interest expense in 2019 by approximately $13.2 million. This analysis does not consider the effects of the reduced level ofoverall economic activity that could exist in such an environment. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, HDFS may take actions to mitigate itsexposure to the change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, the sensitivity analysis doesnot account for these impacts. 46 Item 8.

Summary of Significant Accounting PoliciesPrinciples of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation – The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Harley-Davidson, Inc. and itswholly-owned subsidiaries (the Company), including the accounts of the groups of companies doing business as Harley-Davidson Motor Company (HDMC)and Harley-Davidson Financial Services (HDFS). In addition, certain variable interest entities (VIEs) related to secured financing are consolidated as theCompany is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated.All of the Company’s subsidiaries are wholly owned and are included in the consolidated financial statements. Substantially all of the Company’sinternational subsidiaries use their respective local currency as their functional currency. Assets and liabilities of international subsidiaries have beentranslated at period-end exchange rates, and revenues and expenses have been translated using average exchange rates for the period. Monetary assets andliabilities denominated in a currency that is different from an entity's functional currency are remeasured from the transactional currency to the entity'sfunctional currency on a monthly basis. The effect of this remeasurement is reported in Motorcycles and Related Products cost of goods sold. The pre-tax(loss) gain for foreign currency remeasurements was $(19.9) million, $15.0 million, and $(15.1) million for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and2016, respectively.The Company operates in two reportable segments: Motorcycles and Related Products (Motorcycles) and Financial Services.Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) requiresmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results coulddiffer from those estimates.Cash and Cash Equivalents – The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cashequivalents.Marketable Securities – The Company’s marketable securities consisted of the following at December 31 (in thousands): 2018 2017Certificate of deposit $10,007 $—Mutual funds 44,243 48,006Total marketable securities $54,250 $48,006The Company’s certificates of deposit are carried at fair value with any unrealized gains or losses reported in other comprehensive income. The mutualfund investments are held by the Company to fund certain deferred compensation obligations. The mutual fund investments are carried at fair value withgains and losses recorded in net income and are included in other long-term assets in the consolidated balance sheets.Accounts Receivable, Net – The Company’s motorcycles and related products are sold to independent dealers outside the U.S. and Canada generally onopen account and the resulting receivables are included in accounts receivable in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The allowance for doubtfulaccounts deducted from total accounts receivable was $4.0 million and $4.1 million as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Accounts receivable arewritten down once management determines that the specific customer does not have the ability to repay the balance in full. The Company’s sales ofmotorcycles and related products in the U.S. and Canada are financed by the purchasing dealers through HDFS and the related receivables are included infinance receivables in the consolidated balance sheets.Finance Receivables, Net – Finance receivables include both retail and wholesale finance receivables, net, including amounts held by consolidatedVIEs. Finance receivables are recorded in the financial statements at amortized cost net of an allowance for credit losses. The provision for credit losses onfinance receivables is charged to earnings in amounts sufficient to maintain the allowance for credit losses at a level that is adequate to cover estimated lossesof principal inherent in the existing portfolio. Portions of the allowance for credit losses are specified to cover estimated losses on finance receivablesspecifically identified for impairment. The unspecified portion of the allowance covers estimated losses on finance receivables which are collectivelyreviewed for impairment. Finance receivables are considered impaired when management determines it is probable that the Company will be unable tocollect all amounts due according to the terms of the loan agreement.The retail portfolio primarily consists of a large number of small balance, homogeneous finance receivables. The Company performs a periodic andsystematic collective evaluation of the adequacy of the retail allowance for credit losses. The56Company utilizes loss forecast models which consider a variety of factors including, but not limited to, historical loss trends, origination or vintage analysis,known and inherent risks in the portfolio, the value of the underlying collateral, recovery rates and current economic conditions including items such asunemployment rates. Retail finance receivables are not evaluated individually for impairment prior to charge-off and therefore are not reported as impairedloans.The wholesale portfolio is primarily composed of large balance, non-homogeneous loans. The Company’s wholesale allowance evaluation is first basedon a loan-by-loan review. A specific allowance for credit losses is established for wholesale finance receivables determined to be individually impaired whenmanagement concludes that the borrower will not be able to make full payment of contractual amounts due based on the original terms of the loan agreement.The impairment is determined based on the cash that the Company expects to receive discounted at the loan’s original interest rate or the fair value of thecollateral, if the loan is collateral-dependent. Finance receivables in the wholesale portfolio that are not individually evaluated for impairment aresegregated, based on similar risk characteristics, according to the Company’s internal risk rating system and collectively evaluated for impairment. Therelated allowance is based on factors such as the Company’s past loan loss experience, the specific borrower’s financial performance as well as ability torepay, current economic conditions and the value of the underlying collateral.Impaired finance receivables also include loans that have been modified in troubled debt restructurings as a concession to borrowers experiencingfinancial difficulty. Generally, it is the Company’s policy not to change the terms and conditions of finance receivables. However, to minimize the economicloss, the Company may modify certain impaired finance receivables in troubled debt restructurings. Total restructured finance receivables are not significant.Repossessed inventory representing recovered collateral on impaired finance receivables is recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value. In theperiod during which the collateral is repossessed, the related finance receivable is adjusted to the fair value of the collateral through a charge to the allowancefor credit losses and reclassified to repossessed inventory. Repossessed inventory is included in other current assets and was $20.2 million and $19.6 millionat December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Asset-Backed Financing – The Company participates in asset-backed financing both through asset-backed securitization transactions and throughasset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities. In the Company's asset-backed financing programs, the Company transfers retail motorcycle financereceivables to special purpose entities (SPE), which are considered VIEs under U.S. GAAP. Each SPE then converts those assets into cash, through theissuance of debt. The Company retains servicing rights for all of the retail motorcycle finance receivables transferred to SPEs as part of an asset-backedfinancing. The accounting treatment for asset-backed financings depends on the terms of the related transaction and the Company’s continuing involvementwith the VIE.In transactions where the Company has power over the significant activities of the VIE and has an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receivebenefits from the VIE that are potentially significant to the VIE, the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and consolidates the VIE within itsconsolidated financial statements. On a consolidated basis, the asset-backed financing is treated as a secured borrowing in this type of transaction and isreferred to as an on-balance sheet asset-backed financing.In transactions where the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE, the Company must determine whether it can achieve a sale for accountingpurposes under ASC Topic 860, "Transfers and Servicing." To achieve a sale for accounting purposes, the assets being transferred must be legally isolated,not be constrained by restrictions from further transfer, and be deemed to be beyond the Company’s control. If the Company does not meet all these criteriafor sale accounting, then the transaction is accounted for as a secured borrowing and is referred to as an on-balance sheet asset-backed financing.If the Company meets all three of the sale criteria above, the transaction is recorded as a sale for accounting purposes and is referred to as an off-balancesheet asset-backed financing. Upon sale, the retail motorcycle finance receivables are removed from the Company’s balance sheet and a gain or loss isrecognized for the difference between the cash proceeds received, the assets derecognized, and the liabilities recognized as part of the transaction. The gain orloss on sale is included in Financial Services revenue in the consolidated statements of income.The Company is not required, and does not currently intend, to provide any additional financial support to the on or off-balance sheet VIEs associatedwith these transactions. Investors and creditors in these transactions only have recourse to the assets held by the VIEs.Inventories – Substantially all inventories located in the United States are valued using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. Other inventories totaling$247.6 million and $234.9 million at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.57Property, Plant and Equipment – Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is determined on the straight-line basis over theestimated useful lives of the assets. The following useful lives are used to depreciate the various classes of property, plant and equipment: buildings – 30years; building, equipment and land improvements – 7 years; machinery and equipment – 3 to 10 years; furniture and fixtures – 5 years; and software – 3 to 7years. Accelerated methods of depreciation are used for income tax purposes.Goodwill – Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of the net assets purchased. Goodwill is tested for impairment, basedon financial data related to the reporting unit to which it has been assigned, at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate thatthe carrying value may not be recoverable. The impairment test involves comparing the estimated fair value of the reporting unit associated with thegoodwill to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, goodwill must be adjusted to itsimplied fair value. During 2018 and 2017, the Company performed a quantitative test on its goodwill balances for impairment and no adjustments wererecorded to goodwill as a result of those reviews.Long-lived Assets – The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used when events and circumstanceswarrant such review. If the carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying valueexceeds the fair value of the long-lived asset for assets to be held and used. The Company also reviews the useful life of its long-lived assets when events andcircumstances indicate that the actual useful life may be shorter than originally estimated. In the event that the actual useful life is deemed to be shorter thanthe original useful life, depreciation is adjusted prospectively so that the remaining book value is depreciated over the revised useful life. Refer to Note 3Restructuring Expenses.Asset groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, and a loss is recognized for any initialadjustment required to reduce the carrying amount to the fair value less cost to sell in the period the held for sale criteria are met. The fair value less cost tosell must be assessed each reporting period that the asset group remains classified as held for sale. Gains or losses not previously recognized resulting fromthe sale of an asset group will be recognized on the date of sale.Product Warranty and Recall – The Company currently provides a standard two-year limited warranty on all new motorcycles sold worldwide, exceptfor Japan, where the Company provides a standard three-year limited warranty on all new motorcycles sold. In addition, the Company offers a one-yearwarranty for Parts & Accessories (P&A). The warranty coverage for the retail customer generally begins when the product is sold to a retail customer. TheCompany accrues for future warranty claims using an estimated cost based primarily on historical Company claim information. Additionally, the Companyhas from time-to-time initiated certain voluntary recall campaigns. The Company accrues for the estimated cost associated with voluntary recalls in theperiod that management approves and commits to the recall.Changes in the Company’s warranty and recall liability were as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017 2016Balance, beginning of period $94,200 $79,482 $74,217Warranties issued during the period 53,367 57,834 60,215Settlements made during the period (79,300) (82,554) (99,298)Recalls and changes to pre-existing warranty liabilities 63,473 39,438 44,348Balance, end of period $131,740 $94,200 $79,482The liability associated with recalls was $73.3 million, $35.3 million and $13.6 million at December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.Derivative Financial Instruments – The Company is exposed to certain risks such as foreign currency exchange rate risk, interest rate risk andcommodity price risk. To reduce its exposure to such risks, the Company selectively uses derivative financial instruments. All derivative transactions areauthorized and executed pursuant to regularly reviewed policies and procedures, which prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative tradingpurposes.All derivative instruments are recognized on the balance sheet at fair value (see Note 13). In accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives andHedging,” the accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of ahedging relationship and, further, on the type of hedging relationship. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated as fair value hedges, alongwith the gain or loss on the hedged item, are recorded in current period earnings. For derivative instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges, theeffective portion of gains and losses that result from changes in the fair value of derivative instruments is initially recorded in other comprehensive income(OCI) and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects income. The Company assesses, at both58the inception of each hedge and on an on-going basis, whether the derivatives that are used in its hedging transactions are highly effective in offsettingchanges in cash flows of the hedged items. Any ineffective portion is immediately recognized in earnings. No component of a hedging derivativeinstrument’s gain or loss is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting are recordedat fair value and any changes in fair value are recorded in current period earnings. Refer to Note 10 for a detailed description of the Company’s derivativeinstruments.Research and Development Expenses – Expenditures for research activities relating to product development and improvement are charged againstincome as incurred and included within selling, administrative and engineering expense in the consolidated statements of income. Research anddevelopment expenses were $191.6 million, $175.2 million and $172.3 million for 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.Advertising Costs – The Company expenses the production cost of advertising the first time the advertising takes place. Advertising costs relate to theCompany’s efforts to promote its products and brands through the use of media. During 2018, 2017 and 2016, the Company incurred $144.3 million, $135.5million and $137.4 million in advertising costs, respectively.Shipping and Handling Costs – The Company classifies shipping and handling costs as a component of cost of goods sold.Share-Based Award Compensation Costs – The Company recognizes the cost of its share-based awards in its consolidated statements of income. Thecost of each share-based equity award is based on the grant date fair value and the cost of each share-based cash-settled award is based on the settlement datefair value. Share-based award expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the service or performance periods of the awards. The expense recognizedreflects the number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest based on the service and, if applicable, performance requirements of each award. Totalshare-based award compensation expense recognized by the Company during 2018, 2017 and 2016 was $35.5 million, $32.5 million and $32.3 million,respectively, or $27.2 million, $20.5 million and $20.4 million net of taxes, respectively.Income Tax Expense – The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes.New Accounting StandardsAccounting Standards Recently AdoptedIn May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09). ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customersin an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted ASU2014-09 on January 1, 2018. The Company applied the standard to all contracts using the modified retrospective method. As such, the Company recognizedthe cumulative effect of the adoption as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The comparative information has not been adjusted.The majority of the Company’s Motorcycles and Related Products revenue will continue to be recognized when products are shipped to customers. Fora limited number of vehicle sales where revenue was previously deferred due to a guaranteed resale value, the Company will now recognize revenue whenthose vehicles are shipped in accordance with ASU 2014-09. The Company recorded a net increase to the opening balance of retained earnings of $6.0million, net of income taxes, as of January 1, 2018 as a result of adopting ASU 2014-09. The Company also adjusted other assets and accrued liabilitiesassociated with these vehicle sales in connection with its adoption of ASU 2014-09.The majority of the Financial Services segment’s revenues relate to loan and servicing activities which are outside the scope of this guidance. FinancialServices revenues that fall under the scope of ASU 2014-09 continue to be recognized at the point of sale, or over the estimated life of the contract, asappropriate.59The following tables illustrate the impact of adoption of ASU 2014-09 on the consolidated statement of income and the consolidated balance sheet (inthousands):Consolidated Statement of Income Twelve months ended December 31, 2018 As Reported Without Adoptionof ASC 606 Effect of ChangeRevenue: Motorcycles and Related Products $4,968,646 $4,969,948 $(1,302)Costs and expenses: Motorcycles and Related Products cost of goods sold $3,351,796 $3,348,779 $3,017Operating income $713,523 $717,842 $(4,319)Income before provision for income taxes $686,629 $690,948 $(4,319)Provision for income taxes $155,178 $156,225 $(1,047)Net income $531,451 $534,723 $(3,272)Consolidated Balance Sheet December 31, 2018 As Reported Without Adoptionof ASC 606 Effect of ChangeASSETS Other current assets$144,368 $163,841 $(19,473)Deferred income taxes$141,464 $143,312 $(1,848) LIABILITIES AND SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY Accrued liabilities$601,130 $625,203 $(24,073)Retained earnings$2,007,583 $2,004,831 $2,752In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07 Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net PeriodicPension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost (ASU 2017-07). ASU 2017-07 amends ASC 715, Compensation - Retirement Benefits by requiringemployers to present the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line item as other employee compensation costsarising from services rendered during the period. Other components of the net periodic benefit cost will be presented separately from the line item thatincludes the service cost and outside of any subtotal of operating income. The guidance also limits the components that are eligible for capitalization inassets. The Company adopted ASU 2017-07 retrospectively on January 1, 2018. As a result, the non-service cost components of net periodic benefit cost havebeen presented in Other income (expense), net and the prior period has been recast to reflect the new presentation. The Company elected the practicalexpedient allowing the use of previously disclosed benefit components as the basis for the retrospective application. Net periodic benefit credit (cost)previously recorded in Motorcycles and Related Products cost of goods sold and Selling, administrative and engineering expense of $10.6 million and $(1.4)million, respectively, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2017, and $6.2 million and $(3.6) million, respectively, for the twelve months endedDecember 31, 2016 has been reclassified to Other income (expense), net.In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18 Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (ASU 2016-18). ASU 2016-18 requiresthat a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents and amounts generally described as restricted cash orrestricted cash equivalents. As such, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling thebeginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted ASU 2016-18 on January 1, 2018 on aretrospective basis. As a result, the change in restricted cash has been excluded from financing activities and included in the change in cash, cash equivalentsand restricted cash and the prior period has been recast to reflect the new presentation.60In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01 Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of FinancialAssets and Financial Liabilities (ASU 2016-01). ASU 2016-01 enhances the existing financial instruments reporting model by modifying fair valuemeasurement tools, simplifying impairment assessments for certain equity instruments and modifying overall presentation and disclosure requirements. TheASU was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-03, ASU No. 2018-04 and ASU No. 2018-09. The Company adopted ASU 2016-01 on January 1, 2018 ona prospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 did not have a material impact on its financial statements.In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15 Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments(ASU 2016-15). ASU 2016-15 addresses eight specific cash flow items with the objective of reducing diversity in practice regarding how certain cash receiptsand cash payments are presented in the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted ASU 2016-15 on January 1, 2018 on a retrospective basis. Theadoption of ASU 2016-15 did not have a material impact on its financial statements.In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory (ASU 2016-16).ASU 2016-16 states that an entity should recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transferoccurs. The Company adopted ASU 2016-16 on January 1, 2018 using a modified retrospective approach. The adoption of ASU 2016-16 did not have amaterial impact on its financial statements.In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU2018-02). Under existing U.S. GAAP, the effects of changes in tax rates and laws on deferred tax balances are recorded as a component of income tax expensein the period in which the law was enacted. When deferred tax balances related to items originally recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income areadjusted, certain tax effects become stranded in accumulated other comprehensive income. The amendments in ASU 2018-02 allow a reclassification fromaccumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The amendments inthis ASU also require certain disclosures about stranded tax effects. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interimperiods within those fiscal years. Early adoption in any period is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2018-02 in December 2018 resulting in thereclassification of $108.3 million in stranded tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive loss to retained earnings. These reclassified stranded taxeffects relate to the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate on the gross deferred tax amounts. The Company has elected the portfolio approachto release stranded income tax effects in AOCI.In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20) (ASU2018-14). The amendments in ASU 2018-14 modify the annual disclosure requirements for defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans.The FASB modified, added, and deleted specific disclosures in an effort to improve usefulness to financial statement users and reduce unnecessary costs forcompanies. The amendments are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2018-14in December 2018.Accounting Standards Not Yet AdoptedIn February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02). ASU 2016-02 amends the existing lease accounting model byrequiring a lessee to recognize the rights and obligations resulting from certain leases as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-02 also requiresa company to disclose key information about their leasing arrangements. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2016-02 for fiscal years, and interim periodswithin those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018 using a modified retrospective approach. Pursuant to ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842):Targeted Improvements, the Company plans to apply the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative effect adjustment to theopening balance sheet in the period of adoption. The Company has elected the practical expedients upon transition that allow entities not to reassess leaseidentification, classification and initial direct costs for leases that existed prior to adoption. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 will result in the initialrecognition of right of use assets and lease liabilities related to the Company's leasing arrangements totaling approximately $60 million.In July 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on FinancialInstruments (ASU 2016-13). ASU 2016-13 changes how to recognize expected credit losses on financial assets. The standard requires a more timelyrecognition of credit losses on loans and other financial assets and also provides additional transparency about credit risk. The current credit loss standardgenerally requires that a loss actually be incurred before it is recognized, while the new standard will require recognition of full lifetime expected losses uponinitial recognition of the financial instrument. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2016-13 for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscalyears, beginning after December 15, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018.An entity should apply the standard by recording a cumulative61effect adjustment to retained earnings upon adoption. Adoption of this standard will impact how the Company recognizes credit losses on its financialinstruments. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU 2016-13 but anticipates the adoption of ASU 2016-13 will result in anincrease in the annual provision for credit losses and the related allowance for credit losses.In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (ASU2017-04). ASU 2017-04 simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill.Rather, the goodwill impairment is calculated by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying value, and an impairment loss is recognized forthe amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, limited to the total goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. All reporting units apply thesame impairment test under the new standard. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2017-04 for its annual and any interim goodwill impairment tests infiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests.In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12 Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for HedgingActivities (ASU 2017-12). ASU 2017-12 amends ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging to improve the financial reporting of hedging relationships and tosimplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance. The ASU makes various updates to the hedge accounting model, including changing therecognition and presentation of changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument and amending disclosure requirements, among other things. TheCompany is required to adopt ASU 2017-12 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlyadoption is permitted in any interim period after issuance of the ASU. For cash flow and net investment hedges existing at the date of adoption, the Companymust apply a cumulative effect adjustment as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the standard is adopted. The amendments related to presentationand disclosure are required prospectively. The adoption of ASU 2017-12 will not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the DisclosureRequirements for Fair Value Measurement (ASU 2018-13). ASU 2018-13 amends ASC 820 to eliminate, modify, and add certain disclosure requirements forfair value measurements. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlyadoption is permitted in any period, either for the whole standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify requirements. The amendments are requiredto be applied retrospectively, with the exception of a few disclosure additions, which are to be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is currentlyevaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2018-13, but does not believe that it will have a significant impact on its disclosures.In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) (ASU 2018-15). Thenew guidance requires a customer in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract to follow the existing internal-use software guidance todetermine which implementation costs to capitalize as assets or expense as incurred. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,2019, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2018-15.2. RevenueThe Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a good or service to a customer. Revenue ismeasured based on the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the goods or services transferred. Taxes that are collectedfrom a customer concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue.62The following table includes revenue disaggregated by major source (in thousands): Twelve months ended December 31, 2018Motorcycles and Related Products: Motorcycles $3,882,963Parts & Accessories 754,663General Merchandise 241,964Licensing 38,676Other 50,380Revenue from Motorcycles and Related Products 4,968,646Financial Services: Interest income 645,985Securitization and servicing fee income 1,136Other income 101,108Revenue from Financial Services 748,229Total revenue $5,716,875The following is a description of principal activities from which the Company generates its revenue, by reportable segment.Motorcycles and Related ProductsMotorcycles, Parts & Accessories, and General Merchandise - Sales of motorcycles, parts & accessories, and general merchandise are recorded whencontrol is transferred to wholesale customers (independent dealers). This generally takes place upon shipment of the products. The sale of products toindependent dealers outside the U.S. and Canada is generally on open account with terms that generally approximate 30-120 days and the resultingreceivables are included in accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets. The sale of products in the U.S. and Canada is financed by the purchasingdealers through HDFS and the related receivables are included in finance receivables in the consolidated balance sheets.The Company offers sales incentive programs to dealers and retail customers designed to promote the sale of motorcycles, parts & accessories, andgeneral merchandise. The Company estimates its variable consideration related to motorcycles and related products sold under its sales incentive programsusing the expected value method. Further, the Company accounts for consideration payable to a customer as part of its sales incentives as a reduction ofrevenue, which is accrued at the later of the date the related sale is recorded or the date the incentive program is both approved and communicated.The Company offers to its dealers the right to return eligible parts & accessories and general merchandise. When the Company offers a right to return, itestimates returns based on an analysis of historical trends and records revenue on the initial sale only in the amount that it expects to be entitled. Theremaining consideration is deferred in a refund liability account. The refund liability is remeasured for changes in the estimate at each reporting date with acorresponding adjustment to revenue. Variable consideration related to sales incentives and rights to return is adjusted at the earliest of when the amount of consideration the Companyexpects to receive changes or the consideration becomes fixed. Adjustments for variable consideration related to previously recognized sales decreasedrevenue by an immaterial amount during 2018. Shipping and handling costs associated with freight after control of a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as fulfillment costs. TheCompany accrues for the shipping and handling in the same period that the related revenue is recognized.The Company offers standard, limited warranties on its motorcycles and parts & accessories. These warranties provide assurance that the product willfunction as expected and are not separate performance obligations. The Company accounts for estimated warranty costs as a liability when control of theproduct transfers to the customer.63Licensing - The Company licenses the name “Harley-Davidson” and other trademarks owned by the Company and collects royalties from its customers(licensees). The trademark licenses are considered symbolic intellectual property, which grant the customer a right to access the Company’s intellectualproperty. The Company satisfies its performance obligation over the license period, as the Company fulfills its promise to grant the customer rights to use andbenefit from the intellectual property as well as maintain the intellectual property.Payment is typically due within thirty days of the end of each quarter, for the royalties earned in that quarter. Revenue, in the form of sales-basedroyalties, is recognized when the customers’ subsequent sales occur. The Company applies the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-55-18 to recognizelicensing revenues in the amount that the Company has the right to invoice because the royalties due each period correspond directly with the value of theCompany’s performance to date. Revenue will be recognized over the remaining contract terms which range up to 6 years.Other Revenue - Other Revenue consists primarily of revenue from Harley Ownership Group (H.O.G.) membership sales, motorcycle rental commissions,dealer software sales, museum admissions and events, and other miscellaneous products and services.Financial ServicesInterest income - Interest income on finance receivables is recorded as earned and is based on the average outstanding daily balance for wholesale andretail receivables. Accrued and uncollected interest is classified with finance receivables. Certain loan origination costs related to finance receivables,including payments made to dealers for certain retail loans, are deferred and recorded within finance receivables and amortized over the estimated life of thecontract.Securitization and servicing fee income - Securitization and servicing fee income consists of revenue from servicing and ancillary fees associated withHDFS' off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transaction. Refer to Note 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussionregarding asset-backed financing.Other income - Other income consists primarily of insurance and licensing revenues. HDFS works with certain unaffiliated insurance companies to offermotorcycle insurance and protection products through most Harley-Davidson dealers in the U.S. and Canada. HDFS also works with third-party financialinstitutions that issue credit cards or offer other financial products bearing the Harley-Davidson brand in the U.S and internationally. For many of thesecontracts, the Company grants temporary rights to use the licensed trademarks owned by the Company and collects royalties from its customers in connectionwith sales of their products. The trademark licenses are considered symbolic intellectual property, which grant the customer a right to access the intellectualproperty. The Company satisfies its performance obligation over the license period, as it fulfills its promise to grant the customer rights to use and benefitfrom the intellectual property as well as maintain the intellectual property. Royalty and profit sharing amounts are received either quarterly or per annum,based upon the contract. Revenue, in the form of sales-based royalties, is recognized when the customers’ subsequent sales occur. Revenue will be recognizedover the remaining contract terms which range up to 5 years. The Company is the primary obligor for certain other insurance related contracts and, as a result,revenue is recognized over the life of the contract as the Company fulfills its performance obligation.Contract LiabilitiesDeferred revenue relates to payments received at contract inception in advance of the Company’s performance under the contract and generally relatesto the sale of H.O.G. memberships and extended service plan contracts. Deferred revenue is recognized as revenue as the Company performs under thecontract. On January 1, 2018, $23.4 million of deferred revenue was included in Accrued liabilities and Other long-term liabilities in the consolidatedbalance sheet. $19.6 million of previously deferred revenue was recognized in 2018. At December 31, 2018, the unearned revenue balance was $29.1 million.The Company expects to recognize approximately $15.3 million of the remaining unearned revenue in 2019 and $13.8 million thereafter.3. Restructuring ExpensesIn January 2018, the Company initiated a plan to further improve its manufacturing operations and cost structure by commencing a multi-yearmanufacturing optimization plan which includes the consolidation of its motorcycle assembly plant in Kansas City, Missouri, into its plant in York,Pennsylvania, and the closure of its wheel operations in Adelaide, Australia (Manufacturing Optimization Plan). As the U.S. operations are consolidated, theCompany expects approximately 800 jobs will be eliminated with the closure of Kansas City operations and approximately 450 jobs will be added in Yorkthrough 2019. Approximately 90 jobs will be eliminated in Adelaide.64The Company expects to incur restructuring and other consolidation costs of $152 million to $162 million in the Motorcycles segment related to theManufacturing Optimization Plan through 2019, of which approximately 70% will be cash charges. The current Manufacturing Optimization Plan costestimate has been revised down from the prior estimate by $3 million and $23 million at the low and high ends of the range, respectively.The current estimate includes $129 million to $134 million of restructuring expense and $23 million to $28 million of costs related to temporaryinefficiencies. The Company expects restructuring expenses to include the cost of employee termination benefits, accelerated depreciation, and other projectimplementation costs of $40 million to $41 million, $51 million to $53 million, and $38 million to $40 million, respectively.In November 2018, the Company implemented a reorganization of its workforce (Reorganization Plan). As a result, approximately 70 employees leftthe Company on an involuntary basis. The Company incurred restructuring expenses of $3.9 million related to this action during 2018.Restructuring expense related to these plans is recorded as a separate line item in the consolidated statement of income and the accrued restructuringliability is recorded in accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company expects these plans to be completed by mid-2019. Changes in theaccrued restructuring liability were as follows (in thousands): Twelve months ended December 31, 2018 Manufacturing Optimization Plan Reorganization Plan EmployeeTerminationBenefits AcceleratedDepreciation Other Total EmployeeTermination Benefits TotalBalance, beginning of period$— $— $— $— $— $—Restructuring expense38,666 34,654 16,182 89,502 3,899 93,401Utilized - cash(13,060) — (16,095) (29,155) (444) (29,599)Utilized - non cash— (34,654) — (34,654) — (34,654)Foreign currency changes(648) — (8) (656) 6 (650)Balance, end of period$24,958 $— $79 $25,037 $3,461 $28,498During 2018, the Company incurred $12.9 million of incremental cost of goods sold due to temporary inefficiencies related to implementing theManufacturing Optimization Plan.4. Income TaxesDuring 2017, the Company recorded income tax expense of $53.1 million in connection with the enactment of the "Tax Cuts and Jobs Act" (2017 TaxAct), all of which the Company regarded as provisional under SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cutsand Jobs Act (SAB 118). The Company's provisional income tax expense included the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the ratesat which they are expected to reverse in the future, a one-time transition tax related to undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that were notpreviously taxed, the write-off of foreign tax credit deferred tax assets related to withholding tax on foreign dividend payments, state tax estimates related tothe conformity of federal tax law changes and other smaller items. The Company completed its accounting for all of the initial income tax effects of the 2017Tax Act during 2018 which resulted in a reduction to income tax expense during 2018 of $1.5 million.The 2017 Tax Act also subjects U.S. shareholders to current tax on global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI) earned by certain foreign subsidiariesfor which a company can elect to either recognize deferred taxes or to provide tax expense in the year incurred. The Company has elected to account forGILTI in the year the tax is incurred.65Provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31 consists of the following (in thousands): 2018 2017 2016Current: Federal $136,202 $245,189 $284,489State 23,134 24,898 28,406Foreign 29,823 21,138 19,017 189,159 291,225 331,912Deferred: Federal (23,181) 47,046 (4,250)State (6,787) 2,688 7,038Foreign (4,013) 1,121 (2,953) (33,981) 50,855 (165)Total $155,178 $342,080 $331,747The components of income before income taxes for the years ended December 31 were as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017 2016Domestic $593,099 $788,878 $954,138Foreign 93,530 74,961 69,773Total $686,629 $863,839 $1,023,911The provision for income taxes differs from the amount that would be provided by applying the statutory U.S. corporate income tax rate due to thefollowing items for the years ended December 31: 2018 2017 2016Provision at statutory rate 21.0 % 35.0 % 35.0 %State taxes, net of federal benefit 2.6 1.9 1.8Foreign rate differential 0.4 (0.8) (0.6)Domestic manufacturing deduction — (2.2) (2.1)Foreign derived intangible income (1.2) — —Research and development credit (1.1) (0.7) (0.4)Unrecognized tax benefits including interest and penalties (0.6) 2.3 (1.3)Valuation allowance adjustments 0.1 (0.1) 0.1Deferred tax balance remeasurement for rate change (1.2) 5.5 —Territorial tax 1.4 (0.1) —Global intangible low-taxed income 0.4 — —Adjustments for previously accrued taxes (1.0) (1.2) 0.2Rate differential on intercompany transfers 0.9 — —Executive compensation limitation 0.5 — —Other 0.4 — (0.3)Provision for income taxes 22.6 % 39.6 % 32.4 %66The principal components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31 include the following (in thousands): 2018 2017Deferred tax assets: Accruals not yet tax deductible $108,284 $92,158Pension and postretirement benefit plan obligations 48,347 37,357Stock compensation 13,295 12,669Net operating loss carryforward 34,842 33,171Valuation allowance (21,868) (21,561)Other, net 43,870 52,422 226,770 206,216Deferred tax liabilities: Depreciation, tax in excess of book (79,326) (88,989)Other (5,980) (8,154) (85,306) (97,143)Total $141,464 $109,073The Company reviews its deferred tax asset valuation allowances on a quarterly basis, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that areview is required. In determining the requirement for a valuation allowance, the historical and projected financial results of the legal entity or consolidatedgroup recording the net deferred tax asset is considered, along with any positive or negative evidence including tax law changes. Since future financialresults and tax law may differ from previous estimates, periodic adjustments to the Company’s valuation allowances may be necessary.At December 31, 2018, the Company had approximately $270.4 million of gross state operating loss carryforwards expiring in 2031. At December 31,2018, the Company also had Wisconsin research and development credit carryforwards of $11.4 million expiring in 2024-2028. The Company had a deferredtax asset of $25.9 million as of December 31, 2018 for the benefit of these losses and credits. A valuation allowance of $2.9 million was established againstthe deferred tax asset, which is a decrease of $1.6 million from the prior year.The Company had foreign net operating losses (NOL) totaling $8.9 million as of December 31, 2018. It had a valuation allowance of $18.9 millionagainst both the NOLs and other deferred tax assets of $10.0 million. The valuation allowance on foreign net operating losses increased by $1.8 million,reflecting movement related to realizability assessment on additional earnings and loss, as well as movements related to foreign currency rates.The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes. Changes in the Company’s grossliability for unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, were as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017Unrecognized tax benefits, beginning of period $72,230 $55,539Increase in unrecognized tax benefits for tax positions taken in a prior period 940 9,513Decrease in unrecognized tax benefits for tax positions taken in a prior period (9,783) (3,749)Increase in unrecognized tax benefits for tax positions taken in the current period 3,355 13,779Settlements with taxing authorities (5,331) (2,852)Unrecognized tax benefits, end of period $61,411 $72,230The amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2018 that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate was $53.7 million.The total gross amount of benefit related to interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits recognized during 2018 in the Company’sconsolidated statement of income was $3.2 million.The total gross amount of interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits recognized at December 31, 2018 in the Company’sconsolidated balance sheet was $27.7 million.67The Company does not expect a significant increase or decrease to the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits related to continuing operationsduring the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019. However, the Company is under regular audit by tax authorities. The Company believes that it hasappropriate support for the positions taken on its tax returns and that its annual tax provision includes amounts sufficient to pay any assessments.Nonetheless, the amounts ultimately paid, if any, upon resolution of the issues raised by the taxing authorities may differ materially from the amountsaccrued for each year.The Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal and Wisconsin state jurisdictions and various other state and foreignjurisdictions.

Earnings Per ShareThe following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the years ended December 31 (inthousands except per share amounts): 2018 2017 2016Numerator: Income used in computing basic and diluted earnings per share $531,451 $521,759 $692,164Denominator: Denominator for basic earnings per share - weighted-average common shares 165,672 171,995 179,676Effect of dilutive securities – employee stock compensation plan 832 937 859Denominator for diluted earnings per share - adjusted weighted-average sharesoutstanding 166,504 172,932 180,535Earnings per common share: Basic $3.21 $3.03 $3.85Diluted $3.19 $3.02 $3.83Options to purchase 1.1 million, 0.8 million and 1.4 million weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding during 2018, 2017 and 2016,respectively, were not included in the Company’s computation of dilutive securities because the exercise price was greater than the market price andtherefore the effect would have been anti-dilutive.The Company has a share-based compensation plan under which employees may be granted share-based awards, including restricted stock units(RSUs). Non-forfeitable dividend equivalents are paid on unvested RSUs. As such, RSUs are considered participating securities under the two-class method ofcalculating earnings per share as described in ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” The two-class method of calculating earnings per share did not have amaterial impact on the Company’s earnings per share calculation as of December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016.6.

Wholesale finance receivables are related primarily to motorcycles and related parts andaccessories sales.The Company provides retail financial services to customers of the Company’s independent dealers in the U.S. and Canada. The origination of retailloans is a separate and distinct transaction between the Company and the retail customer, unrelated to the Company’s sale of product to its dealers. Retailfinance receivables consist of secured promissory notes and secured installment contracts and are primarily related to sales of motorcycles to the dealers’customers. The Company holds either titles or liens on titles to vehicles financed by promissory notes and installment sales contracts. As of December 31,2018 and 2017, approximately 11% of gross outstanding retail finance receivables were originated in Texas; there were no other states that accounted formore than 10% of gross outstanding retail finance receivables.Unused lines of credit extended to the Company's wholesale finance customers totaled $1.21 billion and $1.27 billion at December 31, 2018 and 2017,respectively.

As thecredit risk varies between the retail and wholesale portfolios, the Company utilizes different credit risk indicators for each portfolio.The Company manages retail credit risk through its credit approval policy and ongoing collection efforts. The Company uses FICO scores, a standardcredit rating measurement, to differentiate the expected default rates of retail credit applicants, enabling the Company to better evaluate credit applicants forapproval and to tailor pricing according to this assessment. Retail loans with a FICO score of 640 or above at origination are considered prime, and loans witha FICO score below 640 are considered sub-prime. These credit quality indicators are determined at the time of loan origination and are not updatedsubsequent to the loan origination date.The recorded investment of retail finance receivables, by credit quality indicator, at December 31 was as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017Prime $5,183,754 $4,966,193Sub-prime 1,144,447 1,174,407Total $6,328,201 $6,140,600The Company's credit risk on the wholesale portfolio is different from that of the retail portfolio. Whereas the retail portfolio represents a relativelyhomogeneous pool of retail finance receivables that exhibit more consistent loss patterns, the wholesale portfolio exposures are less consistent. TheCompany utilizes an internal credit risk rating system to manage credit risk exposure consistently across wholesale borrowers and evaluates credit risk factorsfor each borrower. The Company uses the following internal credit quality indicators, based on an internal risk rating system, listed from highest level of riskto lowest level of risk, for the wholesale portfolio: Doubtful, Substandard, Special Mention, Medium Risk and Low Risk. Based upon management’s review,the dealers classified in the Doubtful category are the dealers with the greatest likelihood of being charged-off, while the dealers classified as Low Risk areleast likely to be charged-off. The internal rating system considers factors such as the specific borrower's ability to repay and the estimated value of anycollateral. Dealer risk rating classifications are reviewed and updated on a quarterly basis.73The recorded investment of wholesale finance receivables, by internal credit quality indicator, at December 31 was as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017Doubtful $2,210 $688Substandard 9,660 3,837Special Mention 10,299 26,866Medium Risk 25,802 9,917Low Risk 1,035,644 975,649Total $1,083,615 $1,016,9578.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging ActivitiesThe Company is exposed to certain risks such as foreign currency exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, and commodity price risk. To reduce its exposureto such risks, the Company selectively uses derivative financial instruments. All derivative transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to regularlyreviewed policies and procedures, which prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative trading purposes.All derivative instruments are recognized on the balance sheet at fair value. In accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” theaccounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationshipand, further, on the type of hedging relationship. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated as fair value hedges, along with the gain or losson the hedged item, are recorded in current period earnings. For derivative instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of gainsand losses that result from changes in the fair value of derivative instruments is initially recorded in other comprehensive income (OCI) and subsequentlyreclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects income. The Company assesses, both at the inception of each hedge and on an on-going basis,whether the derivatives that are used in its hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged items. Any ineffectiveportion is immediately recognized in earnings. No component of a hedging derivative instrument’s gain or loss is excluded from the assessment of hedgeeffectiveness. Derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting are recorded at fair value, and any changes in fair value are recorded in currentperiod earnings.The Company sells its products internationally, and in most markets those sales are made in the foreign country’s local currency. As a result, theCompany’s earnings can be affected by fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currency. The Company utilizes foreign currencyexchange contracts to mitigate the effects of the Euro, the Australian dollar, the Japanese yen, the Brazilian real, the Canadian dollar and the Mexican peso.The foreign currency exchange contracts are entered into with banks and allow the Company to exchange a specified amount of foreign currency for U.S.dollars at a future date, based on a fixed exchange rate.The Company utilizes commodity contracts to hedge portions of the cost of certain commodities consumed in the Company’s motorcycle productionand distribution operations.The Company’s foreign currency exchange contracts and commodity contracts generally have maturities of less than one year.The Company periodically utilizes treasury rate lock contracts to fix the interest rate on a portion of the principal related to the anticipated issuance oflong-term debt. To the extent effective, the gains and losses on the fair value of the treasury rate lock are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive lossuntil the forecasted debt is issued.

The weighted-average interest rate of outstanding commercial paperbalances was 2.79% and 1.48% at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.In April 2018, the Company entered into a $780.0 million five-year credit facility to replace the $675.0 million five-year credit facility that was due tomature in April 2019 and also terminated the $100.0 million 364-day credit facility that would have matured at the end of April 2018. The new five-yearcredit facility matures in April 2023. The Company also has a $765.0 million five-year credit facility which matures in April 2021. The two five-year creditfacilities (together, the Global Credit Facilities) bear interest at variable rates, which may be adjusted upward or downward depending on certain criteria, suchas credit ratings. The Global Credit Facilities also require the Company to pay a fee based on the average daily unused portion of the aggregate commitmentsunder the Global Credit Facilities. The Global Credit Facilities are committed facilities primarily used to support the Company's unsecured commercial paperprogram. In May 2018, the Company renewed its $25.0 million 364-day credit facility that was due to mature in that month. The $25.0 million credit facilitybears interest at variable interest rates, and the Company pays a fee based on the unused portion of the $25.0 million commitment. This credit facility maturesin May 2019.The fixed-rate Notes provide for semi-annual interest payments and the floating-rate Notes provide for quarterly interest payments. Principal on theNotes is due at maturity.During June 2018, $877.5 million of 6.80% medium-term notes matured, and the principal and accrued interest were paid in full. During March andNovember 2017, $400.0 million of 2.70% and $400.0 million of 1.55% medium-term notes matured, respectively, and the principal and accrued interest werepaid in full.HDFS and the Company are subject to various operating and financial covenants related to the credit facilities and various operating covenants underthe Notes and the U.S. and Canadian asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities. The more significant covenants are described below.The operating covenants limit the Company’s and HDFS’ ability to:•Assume or incur certain liens;•Participate in certain mergers or consolidations; and•Purchase or hold margin stock.Under the current financial covenants of the Global Credit Facilities, the ratio of HDFS's consolidated debt, excluding secured debt, to HDFS'sconsolidated shareholders' equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), cannot exceed 10.0 to 1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. Inaddition, the ratio of the Company's consolidated debt to the Company's consolidated debt and consolidated shareholders’ equity (where the Company'sconsolidated debt in each case excludes that of HDFS and its subsidiaries, and the Company's consolidated shareholders’ equity excludes accumulated othercomprehensive income (loss)), cannot exceed 0.7 to 1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. No financial covenants are required under the Notes or the U.S. orCanadian asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities.At December 31, 2018 and 2017, HDFS and the Company remained in compliance with all of these covenants.12. Asset-Backed FinancingThe Company participates in asset-backed financing both through asset-backed securitization transactions and through asset-backed commercial paperconduit facilities. See Note 1 for more information on the Company's accounting for asset-backed financings and VIEs.78The following table shows the assets and liabilities related to the on-balance sheet asset-backed financings included in the financial statements atDecember 31 (in thousands): 2018 Financereceivables Allowance forcredit losses Restrictedcash Other assets Totalassets Asset-backeddebtOn-balance sheet assets and liabilities Consolidated VIEs Asset-backed securitizations$158,718 $(4,691) $17,191 $329 $171,547 $95,167Asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduit facilities631,588 (18,733) 30,012 1,234 644,101 582,717Unconsolidated VIEs Asset-backed Canadian commercial paper conduitfacility181,774 (3,130) 8,779 343 187,766 155,951Total on-balance sheet assets and liabilities$972,080 $(26,554) $55,982 $1,906 $1,003,414 $833,835 2017 Financereceivables Allowance forcredit losses Restrictedcash Other assets Totalassets Asset-backeddebtOn-balance sheet assets and liabilities Consolidated VIEs Asset-backed securitizations$439,301 $(13,686) $34,919 $1,260 $461,794 $352,624Asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduit facilities300,530 (9,392) 13,787 888 305,813 279,457Unconsolidated VIEs Asset-backed Canadian commercial paper conduitfacility203,691 (3,746) 9,983 470 210,398 174,779Total on-balance sheet assets and liabilities$943,522 $(26,824) $58,689 $2,618 $978,005 $806,860On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Securitization VIEsThe Company transfers U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to SPEs which in turn issue secured notes to investors, with various maturities andinterest rates, secured by future collections of the purchased U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables. Each on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization SPEis a separate legal entity and the U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables included in the asset-backed securitizations are only available for payment of thesecured debt and other obligations arising from the asset-backed securitization transactions and are not available to pay other obligations or claims of theCompany’s creditors until the associated secured debt and other obligations are satisfied. Restricted cash balances held by the SPEs are used only to supportthe securitizations. There are no amortization schedules for the secured notes; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the relatedU.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. The secured notes’ contractual lives have various maturities during 2022.The Company is the primary beneficiary of its on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization VIEs because it retains servicing rights and a residualinterest in the VIEs in the form of a debt security. As the servicer, the Company is the variable interest holder with the power to direct the activities of the VIEthat most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. As a residual interest holder, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses and the rightto receive benefits which could potentially be significant to the VIE.There were no on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions during 2018 or 2017. At December 31, 2018, the Company's consolidatedbalance sheet included outstanding balances related to the following secured notes with the related maturity dates and interest rates (in thousands): Issue Date PrincipalAmount at Date ofIssuance Weighted-AverageRate at Date ofIssuance Contractual Maturity DateMay 2015 $500,000 0.88% May 2016 - December 2022January 2015 $700,000 0.89% February 2016 - August 202279In addition, outstanding balances related to the following secured notes included in the Company's consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2017were repaid during 2018 (in thousands): Issue Date PrincipalAmount at Date ofIssuance Weighted-AverageRate at Date ofIssuance Contractual Maturity Date April 2014 $850,000 0.66% April 2015 - October 2021For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, interest expense on the secured notes was $3.2 million and $7.9 million, respectively, which isincluded in Financial Services interest expense. The weighted average interest rate of the outstanding on-balance sheet asset-backed securitizationtransactions was 1.67% and 1.53% at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed U.S. Commercial Paper Conduit Facilities VIEThe Company has agreements with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits under which it may transfer U.S. retailmotorcycle finance receivables to an SPE, which in turn may issue debt to those third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. OnNovember 30, 2018, the Company renewed its existing $600.0 million revolving facility agreement with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S.commercial paper conduits. Also on that date, the Company amended its existing $300.0 million revolving facility agreement with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits, increasing the aggregate commitment to $600.0 million. The aggregate commitment under thisagreement will be reduced monthly as collections on the related finance receivables are applied to the outstanding principal until the outstanding principalbalance is less than or equal to $300.0 million, at which point the aggregate commitment will equal $300.0 million. Availability under the revolvingfacilities (together, the U.S. Conduit Facilities) is based on, among other things, the amount of eligible U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables held by theSPE as collateral.Under the U.S. Conduit Facilities, the assets of the SPE are restricted as collateral for the payment of the debt or other obligations arising in thetransaction and are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company’s creditors. The terms for this debt provide for interest on the outstandingprincipal based on prevailing commercial paper rates or LIBOR to the extent the advance is not funded by a conduit lender through the issuance ofcommercial paper plus, in each case, a program fee based on outstanding principal. The U.S. Conduit Facilities also provide for an unused commitment feebased on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment. There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt will be reduced monthly as availablecollections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Upon expiration of the U.S. Conduit Facilities, any outstanding principalwill continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables held by the SPE is approximately5 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement of the Company and the lenders, the U.S. Conduit Facilities have an expiration date ofNovember 29, 2019.The Company is the primary beneficiary of its U.S. Conduit Facilities VIE because it retains servicing rights and a residual interest in the VIE in theform of a debt security. As the servicer, the Company is the variable interest holder with the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantlyimpact the VIE’s economic performance. As a residual interest holder, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits whichcould potentially be significant to the VIE.The following table includes quarterly transfers of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to the U.S. Conduit Facilities and the respective proceeds(in thousands): 2018 2017 Transfers Proceeds Transfers ProceedsFirst quarter$32,900 $29,300 $333,400 $300,000Second quarter59,100 53,300 28,200 24,000Third quarter— — 34,100 29,600Fourth quarter400,200 356,800 34,000 29,700 $492,200 $439,400 $429,700 $383,300For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, interest expense under the U.S. Conduit Facilities was $10.9 million and $7.1 million, respectively,which is included in Financial Services interest expense. The weighted average interest rate of the outstanding U.S. Conduit Facilities was 3.26% and 2.33%at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Canadian Commercial Paper Conduit Facility80In June 2018, the Company renewed its facility agreement (Canadian Conduit) with a Canadian bank-sponsored asset-backed commercial paperconduit. Under the agreement, the Canadian Conduit is contractually committed, at the Company's option, to purchase eligible Canadian retail motorcyclefinance receivables for proceeds up to C$220.0 million. The transferred assets are restricted as collateral for the payment of debt. The terms for this debtprovide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing market interest rates plus a specified margin. The Canadian Conduit also provides for aprogram fee and an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment of C$220.0 million. There is no amortizationschedule; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Uponexpiration of the Canadian Conduit, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remainingterm of the related receivables is approximately 5 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement of the Company and the lenders, theCanadian Conduit expires on June 28, 2019.The following table includes quarterly transfers of Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables to the Canadian Conduit and the respective proceeds(in thousands): 2018 2017 Transfers Proceeds Transfers ProceedsFirst quarter$7,600 $6,200 $6,300 $5,500Second quarter38,900 32,200 14,200 12,400Third quarter— — — —Fourth quarter39,000 32,200 84,900 69,100 $85,500 $70,600 $105,400 $87,000For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, interest expense on the Canadian Conduit was $3.8 million and $2.6 million, respectively, which isincluded in Financial Services interest expense. The weighted average interest rate of the outstanding Canadian Conduit was 2.68% and 1.96% atDecember 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.The Company is not the primary beneficiary of the Canadian bank-sponsored, multi-seller conduit VIE; therefore, the Company does not consolidatethe VIE. However, the Company treats the conduit facility as a secured borrowing as it maintains effective control over the assets transferred to the VIE andtherefore does not meet the requirements for sale accounting.As the Company participates in and does not consolidate the Canadian bank-sponsored, multi-seller conduit VIE, the maximum exposure to lossassociated with this VIE, which would only be incurred in the unlikely event that all the finance receivables and underlying collateral have no residual value,is $31.8 million at December 31, 2018. The maximum exposure is not an indication of the Company's expected loss exposure.Off-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Securitization VIEThere were no off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. During the secondquarter of 2016, the Company sold retail motorcycle finance receivables with a principal balance of $301.8 million into a securitization VIE that was notconsolidated, recognized a gain of $9.3 million and received cash proceeds of $312.6 million. Similar to an on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization, theCompany transferred U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE which in turn issued secured notes to investors, with various maturities and interestrates, secured by future collections of the purchased U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables. The off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization SPE is aseparate legal entity, and the U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables included in the asset-backed securitization are only available for payment of thesecured debt and other obligations arising from the asset-backed securitization transaction and are not available to pay other obligations or claims of theCompany’s creditors. In an on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization, the Company retains a financial interest in the VIE in the form of a debt security. Aspart of this off-balance sheet securitization, the Company did not retain any financial interest in the VIE beyond servicing rights and ordinary representationsand warranties and related covenants.The Company is not the primary beneficiary of the off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization VIE because it only retained servicing rights and doesnot have the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE which could potentially be significant to the VIE. Accordingly, thistransaction met the accounting sale requirements under ASC Topic 860 and was recorded as a sale for accounting purposes. Upon the sale, the retailmotorcycle finance receivables were removed from the Company’s balance sheet and a gain was recognized for the difference between the cash proceedsreceived, the assets81derecognized and the liabilities recognized as part of the transaction. The gain on sale was included in Financial Services revenue in the consolidatedstatement of income.At December 31, 2018, the assets of this off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization VIE were $79.6 million and represented the current unpaidprincipal balance of the retail motorcycle finance receivables, which was the Company’s maximum exposure to loss in the off-balance sheet VIE atDecember 31, 2018. This is based on the unlikely event that all the receivables have underwriting defects or other defects that trigger a violation of certaincovenants and that the underlying collateral has no residual value. This maximum exposure is not an indication of expected losses.Servicing ActivitiesThe Company services all retail motorcycle finance receivables that it originates. When the Company transfers retail motorcycle finance receivables toSPEs through asset-backed financings, the Company retains the right to service the finance receivables and receives servicing fees based on the securitizedfinance receivables balance and certain ancillary fees. In on-balance sheet asset-backed financing, servicing fees are eliminated in consolidation andtherefore are not recorded on a consolidated basis. In off-balance sheet asset-backed financings, servicing fees and ancillary fees are recorded in FinancialServices revenue in the consolidated statements of income. The fees the Company is paid for servicing represent adequate compensation and, consequently,the Company does not recognize a servicing asset or liability. The Company recognized servicing fee income of $1.1 million and $1.9 million for the yearsended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.The unpaid principal balance of serviced retail motorcycle finance receivables at December 31 was as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017On-balance sheet retail motorcycle finance receivables$6,185,350 $5,993,185Off-balance sheet retail motorcycle finance receivables79,613 146,425Total serviced retail motorcycle finance receivables$6,264,963 $6,139,610The balance of serviced finance receivables 30 days or more delinquent at December 31 was as follows (in thousands): Amount 30 days or more past due: 2018 2017On-balance sheet retail motorcycle finance receivables$228,015 $227,127Off-balance sheet retail motorcycle finance receivables1,658 2,106Total serviced retail motorcycle finance receivables$229,673 $229,233Credit losses, net of recoveries for the serviced finance receivables for the years ended December 31 were as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017On-balance sheet retail motorcycle finance receivables$109,448 $113,316Off-balance sheet retail motorcycle finance receivables907 1,191Total serviced retail motorcycle finance receivables$110,355 $114,50713. Fair ValueThe Company assesses the inputs used to measure fair value using a three-tier hierarchy.Level 1 inputs include quoted prices for identical instruments and are the most observable.Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and observable inputs such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices,and yield curves. The Company uses the market approach to derive the fair value for its Level 2 fair value measurements. Forward contracts for foreigncurrency, commodities, and treasury rate locks are valued using quoted forward rates and prices; interest rate swaps are valued using quoted interest rates andyield curves; investments in marketable securities and cash equivalents are valued using quoted prices.82Level 3 inputs are not observable in the market and include management's judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricingthe asset or liability.Recurring Fair Value MeasurementsThe following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31 (inthousands): 2018 Quoted Prices inActive Markets forIdentical Assets(Level 1) SignificantOtherObservableInputs(Level 2) SignificantUnobservableInputs(Level 3)Assets: Cash equivalents $998,601 $728,800 $269,801 $—Marketable securities 54,250 44,243 10,007 —Derivatives 15,071 — 15,071 —Total $1,067,922 $773,043 $294,879 $—Liabilities: Derivatives $5,316 $— $5,316 $— 2017 Quoted Prices inActive Markets forIdentical Assets(Level 1) SignificantOtherObservableInputs(Level 2) SignificantUnobservableInputs(Level 3)Assets: Cash equivalents $488,432 $358,500 $129,932 $—Marketable securities 48,006 48,006 — —Derivatives 1,769 — 1,769 —Total $538,207 $406,506 $131,701 $—Liabilities: Derivatives $21,308 $— $21,308 $—Nonrecurring Fair Value MeasurementsRepossessed inventory is recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value through a nonrecurring fair value measurement. Repossessed inventorywas $20.2 million and $19.6 million, for which the fair value adjustment was $9.7 million and $9.0 million, at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Fair value is estimated using Level 2 inputs based on the recent market values of repossessed inventory.Fair Value of Financial Instruments Measured at CostThe carrying value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash approximates their fair values.83The following table summarizes the fair value and carrying value of the Company’s remaining financial instruments that are measured at cost oramortized cost at December 31 (in thousands): 2018 2017 Fair Value Carrying Value Fair Value Carrying ValueAssets: Finance receivables, net $7,304,334 $7,221,931 $7,021,549 $6,965,086Liabilities: Unsecured commercial paper $1,135,810 $1,135,810 $1,273,482 $1,273,482Asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduitfacilities $582,717 $582,717 $279,457 $279,457Asset-backed Canadian commercial paper conduitfacility $155,951 $155,951 $174,779 $174,779Medium-term notes $4,829,671 $4,887,007 $4,189,092 $4,165,706Senior unsecured notes $707,198 $742,624 $784,433 $741,961Asset-backed securitization debt $94,974 $95,167 $351,767 $352,624Finance Receivables, Net – The carrying value of retail and wholesale finance receivables in the financial statements is amortized cost less anallowance for credit losses. The fair value of retail finance receivables is generally calculated by discounting future cash flows using an estimated discountrate that reflects current credit, interest rate and prepayment risks associated with similar types of instruments. Fair value is determined based on Level 3inputs. The amortized cost basis of wholesale finance receivables approximates fair value because they either are short-term or have interest rates that adjustwith changes in market interest rates.Debt – The carrying value of debt in the financial statements is generally amortized cost, net of discounts and debt issuance costs. The carrying value ofunsecured commercial paper calculated using Level 2 inputs approximates fair value due to its short maturity. The carrying value of debt provided under theU.S. conduit facilities and Canadian conduit facility calculated using Level 2 inputs approximates fair value since the interest rates charged under the facilityare tied directly to market rates and fluctuate as market rates change. The fair values of the medium-term notes and senior unsecured notes are estimated basedupon rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities (Level 2 inputs). The fair value of the debt related to on-balance sheetasset-backed securitization transactions is estimated based on pricing currently available for transactions with similar terms and maturities (Level 2 inputs).14. Employee Benefit Plans and Other Postretirement BenefitsThe Company has a qualified defined benefit pension plan and postretirement healthcare benefit plans, which cover employees of the Motorcyclessegment. The Company also has unfunded supplemental employee retirement plan agreements (SERPA) with certain employees which were instituted toreplace benefits lost under the Tax Revenue Reconciliation Act of 1993.Pension benefits are based primarily on years of service and, for certain plans, levels of compensation. Employees are eligible to receive postretirementhealthcare benefits upon attaining age 55 after rendering at least 10 years of service to the Company. Some of the plans require employee contributions topartially offset benefit costs.84Obligations and Funded Status:The following table provides the changes in the benefit obligations, fair value of plan assets and funded status of the Company’s pension, SERPA andpostretirement healthcare plans as of the Company’s December 31, 2018 and 2017 measurement dates (in thousands): Pension and SERPA Benefits PostretirementHealthcare Benefits 2018 2017 2018 2017Change in benefit obligation: Benefit obligation, beginning of period $2,201,021 $1,986,435 $338,488 $346,431Service cost 32,340 31,584 7,180 7,500Interest cost 82,778 85,076 11,556 13,648Actuarial (gains) losses (213,583) 195,444 (42,039) (8,408)Plan participant contributions — — 2,492 2,525Plan amendments (12,926) (13,227) (4,710) —Benefits paid (106,280) (84,291) (23,448) (23,208)Net curtailments and settlements 1,358 — (2,945) —Benefit obligation, end of period 1,984,708 2,201,021 286,574 338,488Change in plan assets: Fair value of plan assets, beginning of period 2,162,885 1,899,889 217,537 170,092Actual return on plan assets (185,468) 320,144 (13,287) 32,445Company contributions — 25,000 — 15,000Plan participant contributions — — 2,492 2,525Benefits paid (102,799) (82,148) (16,385) (2,525)Fair value of plan assets, end of period 1,874,618 2,162,885 190,357 217,537Funded status of the plans, December 31 $(110,090) $(38,136) $(96,217) $(120,951)Amounts recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets,December 31: Prepaid benefit costs (long-term assets) $— $19,816 $— $—Accrued benefit liability (current liabilities) (2,314) (3,346) (1,764) (2,198)Accrued benefit liability (long-term liabilities) (107,776) (54,606) (94,453) (118,753)Net amount recognized $(110,090) $(38,136) $(96,217) $(120,951)During 2018, the actuarial gains related to the obligation for pension and SERPA benefits were due primarily to an increase in the discount rate.Conversely, during 2017, the actuarial losses related to this obligation were due primarily to a decrease in the discount rate.During 2018, the actuarial gains related to the obligation for postretirement healthcare benefits were due primarily to an increase in the discount rate,favorable claim cost experience and a change in the benefit delivery structure. During 2017, the actuarial gains related to this obligation were due primarilyto favorable claim cost and census experience, partially offset by the impact of a decrease in the discount rate.85The funded status of the qualified pension plan and the SERPA plans are combined above. Plan level information for plans with projected benefitobligations (PBO) or accumulated benefit obligations (ABO) in excess of the fair value of plan assets at December 31 is presented below (in millions): 2018 2017Plans with PBOs in excess of fair value of plan assets: PBO $1,984.7 $58.0Fair value of plan assets $1,874.6 $— Plans with ABOs in excess of fair value of plan assets: ABO $40.1 $42.1Fair value of plan assets $— $—The total ABO for all the Company's pension and SERPA plans combined was $1.90 billion and $2.10 billion as of December 31, 2018 and 2017,respectively.Benefit Costs:Components of net periodic benefit costs for the years ended December 31 (in thousands): Pension andSERPA Benefits PostretirementHealthcare Benefits 2018 2017 2016 2018 2017 2016Service cost $32,340 $31,584 $33,437 $7,180 $7,500 $7,478Interest cost 82,778 85,076 90,827 11,556 13,648 14,814Expected return on plan assets (147,671) (141,385) (145,781) (14,161) (12,623) (12,069)Amortization of unrecognized: Prior service (credit) cost (420) 1,018 1,019 (1,842) (2,171) (2,803)Net loss 64,773 43,993 46,351 1,817 3,261 3,537Net curtailment loss (gain) 1,017 — — (886) — —Settlement loss — — 1,463 — — —Net periodic benefit cost $32,817 $20,286 $27,316 $3,664 $9,615 $10,957Service costs are allocated among selling, administrative and engineering expense, cost of goods sold and inventory. Amounts capitalized in inventoryare not significant. Non-service cost components of net periodic benefit cost are presented in other income (expense), net. Refer to Note 1 regarding theadoption of ASU 2017-07 for further discussion regarding the classification of net periodic benefit cost. The expected return on plan assets is calculated based on the market-related value of plan assets. The market-related value of plan assets is differentfrom the fair value in that asset gains/losses are smoothed over a five-year period. Unrecognized gains and losses related to plan obligations and assets are initially recorded in other comprehensive income and result from actualexperience that differs from assumed or expected results, and the impacts of changes in assumptions. Unrecognized plan asset gains and losses not yetreflected in the market-related value of plan assets are not subject to amortization. Remaining unrecognized gains and losses that exceed 10% of the greaterof the projected benefit obligation or the market-related value of plan assets are amortized to earnings over the estimated future service period of active planparticipants. The impacts of plan amendments, if any, are amortized over the estimated future service period of plan participants at the time of theamendment.86Amounts included in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, at December 31, 2018 which have not yet been recognized in net periodicbenefit cost are as follows (in thousands): Pension andSERPA Benefits PostretirementHealthcare Benefits TotalPrior service credit $(14,371) $(9,381) $(23,752)Net actuarial loss 593,608 12,005 605,613Total $579,237 $2,624 $581,861Assumptions:Weighted-average assumptions used to determine benefit obligations and net periodic benefit cost at December 31 were as follows: Pension andSERPA Benefits PostretirementHealthcare Benefits 2018 2017 2016 2018 2017 2016Assumptions for benefit obligations: Discount rate 4.38% 3.71% 4.30% 4.23% 3.52% 4.03%Rate of compensation increase 3.38% 3.43% 3.50% n/a n/a n/aAssumptions for net periodic benefit cost: Discount rate 3.71% 4.30% 4.53% 3.52% 4.03% 4.29%Expected return on plan assets 7.25% 7.25% 7.50% 7.25% 7.25% 7.50%Rate of compensation increase 3.43% 3.50% 3.50% n/a n/a n/aPlan Assets:Pension Plan Assets - The Company’s investment objective is to ensure assets are sufficient to pay benefits while mitigating the volatility of retirementplan assets or liabilities recorded in the balance sheet. The Company mitigates volatility through asset diversification and partial asset/liability matching.The investment portfolio for the Company's pension plan assets contains a diversified blend of equity and fixed-income investments. The Company’s currentoverall targeted asset allocation as a percentage of total market value was approximately 56% equities and 44% fixed-income and cash. Assets are rebalancedregularly to keep the actual allocation in line with targets. Equity holdings primarily include investments in small-, medium- and large-cap companies in theU.S. (including Company stock), investments in developed and emerging foreign markets and other investments such as private equity and real estate. Fixed-income holdings consist of U.S. government and agency securities, state and municipal bonds, corporate bonds from diversified industries and foreignobligations. In addition, cash equivalent balances are maintained at levels adequate to meet near-term plan expenses and benefit payments. Investment risk ismeasured and monitored on an ongoing basis through quarterly investment portfolio reviews.Postretirement Healthcare Plan Assets - The Company's investment objective is to maximize the return on assets to help pay benefits by prudentlyinvesting in equities, fixed income and alternative assets. The Company's current overall targeted asset allocation as a percentage of total market value wasapproximately 69% equities and 31% fixed-income and cash. Equity holdings primarily include investments in small-, medium- and large-cap companies inthe U.S., investments in developed and emerging foreign markets and other investments such as private equity and real estate.

Theexpected long-term rate of return is based on the portfolio as a whole and not on the sum of the returns on individual asset categories. The return is based onhistorical returns adjusted to reflect the current view of the long-term investment market.Postretirement Healthcare Cost:The weighted-average healthcare cost trend rate used in determining the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation of the healthcare plans was asfollows: 2018 2017Healthcare cost trend rate for next year 6.75% 7.00%Rate to which the cost trend rate is assumed to decline (the ultimate rate) 5.00% 5.00%Year that the rate reaches the ultimate trend rate 2026 2026Future Contributions and Benefit Payments:During 2018, the Company did not make any voluntary contributions to its qualified pension plan or postretirement healthcare plans. No pension plancontributions are required in 2019. The Company expects that 2019 postretirement healthcare plan benefits and benefits due under the SERPA plans will bepaid by the Company or, in the case of postretirement healthcare plan benefits, funded partially with plan assets.91The expected benefit payments for the next five years and thereafter were as follows (in thousands): PensionBenefits SERPABenefits PostretirementHealthcareBenefits2019 $111,980 $2,314 $25,9342020 $93,580 $2,862 $27,3282021 $95,690 $3,272 $26,6602022 $99,118 $3,504 $25,3782023 $102,190 $4,467 $23,8152024-2028 $568,867 $28,663 $109,562Defined Contribution Plans:The Company has various defined contribution benefit plans that in total cover substantially all full-time employees. Employees can make voluntarycontributions in accordance with the provisions of their respective plan, which includes a 401(k) tax deferral option. The Company expensed $20.1 million,$19.0 million and $18.2 million for Company contributions during 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.15. Commitments and ContingenciesThe Company is subject to lawsuits and other claims related to environmental, product and other matters. In determining costs to accrue related to theseitems, the Company carefully analyzes cases and considers the likelihood of adverse judgments or outcomes, as well as the potential range of possible loss.Any amounts accrued for these matters are monitored on an ongoing basis and are updated based on new developments or new information as it becomesavailable for each matter.Environmental Protection Agency Notice:In December 2009, the Company received formal, written requests for information from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)regarding: (i) certificates of conformity for motorcycle emissions and related designations and labels, (ii) aftermarket parts, and (iii) warranty claims onemissions related components. The Company promptly submitted written responses to the EPA’s inquiry and has engaged in information exchanges anddiscussions with the EPA. In August 2016, the Company entered into a consent decree with the EPA regarding these issues, and the consent decree wassubsequently revised in July 2017 (the Settlement). In the Settlement, the Company agreed to, among other things, pay a fine, and not sell tuning productsunless they are approved by the EPA or California Air Resources Board. In December 2017, the EPA filed the Settlement with the U.S. District Court for theDistrict of Columbia for the purpose of obtaining court approval of the Settlement. Three amicus briefs opposing portions of the Settlement were filed withthe court by the deadline of January 31, 2018. On March 1, 2018, the Company and the EPA each filed separate response briefs. The Company is awaiting thecourt's decision on whether or not to finalize the Settlement. The Company has an accrual associated with this matter which is included in accrued liabilitiesin the consolidated balance sheets, and as a result, if it is finalized, the Settlement would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financialcondition or results of operations. The Settlement is not final until it is approved by the court, and if it is not approved by the court, the Company cannotreasonably estimate the impact of any remedies the EPA might seek beyond the Company's current reserve for this matter.York Environmental Matters:The Company is involved with government agencies and groups of potentially responsible parties related to a matter involving the cleanup of soil andgroundwater contamination at its York, Pennsylvania facility. The York facility was formerly used by the U.S. Navy and AMF prior to the purchase of theYork facility by the Company from AMF in 1981. The Company has been working with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP)since 1986 and with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in undertaking environmental investigation and remediation activities, including asite-wide remedial investigation/feasibility study (RI/FS).In January 1995, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the Agreement) with the Navy, and the parties amended the Agreement in 2013 toaddress ordnance and explosive waste. The Agreement calls for the Navy and the Company to contribute amounts into a trust equal to 53% and 47%,respectively, of costs associated with environmental investigation and remediation activities at the York facility (Response Costs). The trust administers thepayment of the Response Costs incurred at the York facility as covered by the Agreement.92The Company has an accrual for its estimate of its share of the future Response Costs at the York facility which is included in other long-term liabilitiesin the consolidated balance sheets. While the work on the RI/FS is now complete and the final remedy was proposed in late 2018, it has not yet beenapproved, and given the uncertainty that exists concerning the nature and scope of additional environmental remediation that may ultimately be requiredunder the approved final remedy, the Company is unable to make a reasonable estimate of those additional costs, if any, that may result.The estimate of the Company's future Response Costs that will be incurred at the York facility is based on reports of independent environmentalconsultants retained by the Company, the actual costs incurred to date, and the estimated costs to complete the necessary investigation and remediationactivities.Product Liability Matters:The Company is involved in product liability suits related to the operation of its business. The Company accrues for claim exposures that are probableof occurrence and can be reasonably estimated. The Company also maintains insurance coverage for product liability exposures. The Company believes thatits accruals and insurance coverage are adequate and that product liability suits will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidatedfinancial statements.16. Capital StockCommon Stock:The Company is authorized to issue 800,000,000 shares of common stock of $0.01 par value. There were 159.7 million and 168.1 million commonshares outstanding as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. During 2016, the Company retired 165.0 million shares of its treasury stock.During 2018, the Company repurchased 9.4 million shares of its common stock at a weighted-average price of $41.71. This includes 0.2 million sharesof common stock that were repurchased from employees that surrendered stock to satisfy withholding taxes in connection with the vesting of restricted stockawards.

Share-Based AwardsThe Company has a share-based compensation plan which was approved by its shareholders in April 2014 (the Plan) under which the Board ofDirectors may grant to employees share-based awards including restricted stock units (RSUs), performance shares, nonqualified stock options and stockappreciation rights (SARs). Performance shares include a three-year performance period with vesting based on achievement of internal performance targets.RSUs granted under the Plan vest ratably over a three-year period with the first one-third of the grant vesting one year after the date of grant. Dividends arepaid on RSUs settled with stock and performance shares settled with stock. Dividend equivalents are paid on RSUs and performance shares settled with cash.The options and SARs granted under the Plan have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant and vestratably over a three-year period with the first one-third of the grant becoming exercisable one year after the date of grant. The options and SARs expire 10years from the date of grant. Forfeitures for share-93based awards are estimated at the grant date and adjusted when it is likely to change. At December 31, 2018, there were 8.7 million shares of common stockavailable for future awards under the Plan.Restricted Stock Units and Performance Shares Settled in Stock:The fair value of RSUs and performance shares settled in stock is determined based on the market price of the Company’s shares on the grant date. Thefollowing table summarizes the activity for these awards for the year ended December 31, 2018 (in thousands, except for per share amounts): Shares / Units Weighted-AverageFair ValuePer ShareNonvested, beginning of period 1,601 $49Granted 927 $47Vested (485) $52Forfeited (149) $49Nonvested, end of period 1,894 $48As of December 31, 2018, there was $37.0 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to RSUs and performance shares settled in stock (net ofestimated forfeitures) that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.7 years.Restricted Stock Units and Performance Shares Settled in Cash:RSUs and performance shares that are settled in cash are recorded in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as a liability until vested. The fairvalue is determined based on the market price of the Company’s stock and is remeasured at each balance sheet date.

SARs vest under the same terms and conditions as options; however, they are settled in cash equalto their settlement date fair value. As a result, SARs are recorded in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as a liability until the date of exercise. Thefair value of each unvested SAR award was estimated using a lattice-based valuation model.

Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shall bereset as of each Interest Reset Date specified above; provided, however, that the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from theOriginal Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate.(ii) If the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as a “Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note” then, except as set forthbelow or specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, this Note shall bear interest at the rate determined byreference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases (a) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or (b) multiplied by theSpread Multiplier, if any, in each case as specified above.

Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shallbe reset on each Interest Reset Date; provided, however, that the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original IssueDate to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate set forth above.The “Spread” is the number of basis points (one basis point equals one-hundredth of a percentage point) specified above to beadded to or subtracted from the Interest Rate Basis for a Floating Rate Note, and the “Spread Multiplier” is the percentage specifiedabove by which the Interest Rate Basis for such Floating Rate Note will be multiplied.

Subject to applicable provisions of law (including usury laws) and except as specified in this Note, on eachInterest Reset Date, the rate of interest on this Note shall be the rate determined in accordance with the provisions of the applicableheading below.With respect to a Floating Rate Note, accrued interest shall be calculated by multiplying the principal amount thereof by anaccrued interest factor. Such accrued interest factor will be computed by adding the interest factors calculated for each day in theInterest Period or from the last date from which accrued interest is being calculated. The interest factor for each such day is computedby dividing the interest rate applicable to such day by 360, in the cases of CD Rate Notes, Commercial Paper Rate Notes, FederalFunds Rate Notes, LIBOR Notes and Prime Rate Notes or by the actual number of days in the year, in the cases of CMT Rate Notesand Treasury Rate Notes. The interest rate applicable to any day that is an Interest Reset Date will be the interest rate effective on suchInterest Reset Date. The interest rate applicable to any other day[HDFS Officers’ Certificate Pursuant to Sections 102 and 301 of the Indenture (Floating Rate Notes)]will be the interest rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Date (or, if none, the Initial Interest Rate, as specified above).The “Calculation Date,” where applicable, pertaining to an Interest Determination Date will be the earlier of (i) the tenthcalendar day after such Interest Determination Date or, if any such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day or(ii) the Business Day preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption orrepayment), as the case may be.For Floating Rate Notes, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. shall be the calculation agent unless anothercalculation agent is specified above (the “Calculation Agent”). The interest rate applicable to each interest period will be determined bythe Calculation Agent on or prior to the applicable Calculation Date. At the request of the Holder, the Calculation Agent will providethe interest rate then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate which will become effective on the next Interest Reset Date.All percentages resulting from any calculation of the rate of interest on a Floating Rate Note will be rounded, if necessary, tothe nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percent (.0000001), with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward, and alldollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculation on Floating Rate Notes will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half centbeing rounded upward).Determination of CD Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the CD Rate,unless otherwise specified above, the “CD Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of thesecond Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “CD Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate on the applicable CDInterest Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified above aspublished in H.15(519) (as defined below) on such CD Interest Determination Date under the heading “CDs (secondary market).” Ifthe rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date,the CD Rate shall be the rate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar certificates ofdeposit of the Index Maturity specified above as published in H.15 Daily Update (as defined below), or other recognized electronicsource used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “CDs (secondary market).” If the rate referred to in thepreceding sentence is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the CD Rate shall be therate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent on the Notes as the arithmetic mean of thesecondary market offered rates as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date, of threeleading non-bank dealers in negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit in the City of New York (which may include anagent or its affiliates) selected by the Company for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit of major United States moneymarket banks with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above in an amount that is representative for a singletransaction in that market at that time. If the dealers selected by the[HDFS Officers’ Certificate Pursuant to Sections 102 and 301 of the Indenture (Floating Rate Notes)]Company as provided in the preceding sentence are not quoting as mentioned in such sentence, the CD Rate shall be the CD Rate ineffect on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date.“H.15(519)” means the weekly statistical release designated as H.15(519), or any successor publication, published by theBoard of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.“H.15 Daily Update” means the daily update of H.15(519), available through the world-wide-web site of the Board ofGovernors of the Federal Reserve System at http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/h15/update, or any successor site or publication.Determination of CMT Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the CMT Rate,unless otherwise specified above, the “CMT Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of thesecond Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “CMT Interest Determination Date”) and shall be, if “CMT Reuters PageFRBCMT” is specified above, the percentage equal to the yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having theIndex Maturity specified above, as the yield is displayed on Reuters, Inc. (or any successor or similar service), on page FRBCMT (orany other page as may replace the specified page on that service under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities”) (“Reuters PageFRBCMT”). If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear on Reuters Page FRBCMT, the CMT Rate for suchCMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity”having the Index Maturity specified above, and for the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date as published in H.15(519) underthe caption “Treasury Constant Maturities.” In the event the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear in H.15(519),then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date forthe period of the Index Maturity specified above, as may then be published by either the Board of Governors of the Federal ReserveSystem or the United States Department of the Treasury that the Calculation Agent determines to be comparable to the rate whichwould otherwise have been published in H.15(519). In the event the rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not published, theCMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity basedon the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices at approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMTInterest Determination Date of three leading primary United States government securities dealers in the City of New York, which mayinclude an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates (each a “Reference Dealer”), selected by the Company (from five ReferenceDealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the highest), and the lowestquotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity equal to theIndex Maturity specified above, a remaining term to maturity no more than one year shorter than the Index Maturity specified aboveand in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five butmore than two of the prices referred to in the above sentence are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT InterestDetermination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neitherthe highest nor the lowest of the quotations shall be eliminated; provided, however, that if fewer than[HDFS Officers’ Certificate Pursuant to Sections 102 and 301 of the Indenture (Floating Rate Notes)]three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will becalculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as ofapproximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selectedby the Company from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation or, in the event ofequality, one of the highest and the lowest quotation or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest, for United States Treasury securitieswith an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity closest to the IndexMaturity specified above, and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at thattime. However, if fewer than five but more than two prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on theapplicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid pricesobtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations will be eliminated. If fewer than three prices referred to above areprovided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be the CMT Rate in effect on theapplicable CMT Interest Determination Date. If the CMT Reuters Page FEDCMT is specified above, the CMT Rate for such CMTInterest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the one-week or one-month, as specified above, and will be the average yieldfor United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as the yield is displayed onReuters, Inc. (or any successor service) on page FEDCMT (or any other page as may replace that specified page on that service)(“Reuters Page FEDCMT”), for the week or month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, inwhich the related CMT Interest Determination Date falls. If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear on ReutersPage FEDCMT, then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the one-week or one-month, as specified above, average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturityspecified above, and for the week or month, as applicable, preceding the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date as published inH.15(519) opposite the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities.” If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear inH.15(519), then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be the one-week or one-month, as specified above,average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as otherwiseannounced by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the week or month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week ormonth, as applicable, in which the related CMT Interest Determination Date falls. If the Federal Reserve Bank of New York does notpublish the rate referred to above, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the CalculationAgent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices at approximately 3:30 p.m., New YorkCity time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selected by the Company (from fiveReference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the highest), andthe lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturityequal to the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity no more than one year shorter than the Index Maturityspecified above, and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. Iffewer than five but more than two of the[HDFS Officers’ Certificate Pursuant to Sections 102 and 301 of the Indenture (Floating Rate Notes)]prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated bythe Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotationsshall be eliminated. If fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate on the applicable CMT InterestDetermination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondarymarket bid prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of threeReference Dealers selected by the Company (from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highestquotation or (in the event of equality, one of the highest) and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), forUnited States Treasury securities with an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term tomaturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above and will be in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction inthe securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five but more than two prices referred to above are provided as requested, the ratewill be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor thelowest of the quotations will be eliminated, or if fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate willbe the CMT Rate in effect on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date. If two United States Treasury securities with anoriginal maturity greater than the Index Maturity as specified above have remaining terms to maturity equally close to the IndexMaturity specified above, the quotes for the United States Treasury security with the shorter original remaining term to maturity will beused.Determination of Commercial Paper Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to,the Commercial Paper Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Commercial Paper Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will bedetermined by the Calculation Agent as of the second Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “Commercial Paper InterestDetermination Date”) and shall be the Money Market Yield (as defined below) on such date of the rate for commercial paper havingthe Index Maturity as indicated above, as such rate shall be published in H.15(519) under the caption “Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial.” In the event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date,then the Commercial Paper Rate shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent as the Money Market Yield of the Commercial PaperRate on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specifiedabove, published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate,under the caption “Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial.” If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, suchrate is not yet published as provided in the preceding sentence, then the Commercial Paper Rate on the applicable Commercial PaperInterest Determination Date shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent as the Money Market Yield of the arithmetic mean of theoffered rates at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date ofthree leading dealers of United States dollar commercial paper in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Companyor such agent’s affiliates, selected by the Calculation Agent for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified above, placedfor industrial issuers whose bond rating is “Aa,” or the equivalent, from a[HDFS Officers’ Certificate Pursuant to Sections 102 and 301 of the Indenture (Floating Rate Notes)]nationally recognized statistical rating organization; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Company are notquoting offered rates as mentioned in this sentence, the Commercial Paper Rate will be the Commercial Paper Rate in effect on theapplicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date.“Money Market Yield” shall be a yield calculated in accordance with the following formula and expressed as a percentage:Money market yield =D × 360× 100360 - (D × M)where “D” refers to the applicable per annum rate for commercial paper quoted on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal;and “M” refers to the actual number of days in the interest period for which interest is being calculated.Determination of Federal Funds Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to theFederal Funds Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Federal Funds Rate” with respect to each Interest Reset Date will bedetermined by the Calculation Agent as of the first Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “Federal Funds InterestDetermination Date”) and shall be the rate on that date for United States dollar Federal Funds as published in H.15(519) under theheading “Federal Funds (Effective),” as displayed on Reuters, Inc. (or any successor service) on page FEDFUND01 (or any otherpage as may replace the applicable page on that service) (“Reuters Page FEDFUND01”) or, if such rate does not appear on ReutersPage FEDFUND01, or is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the rate on theapplicable Federal Funds Interest Determination Date for United States dollar Federal Funds will be the rate on such Federal FundsInterest Determination Date as published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose ofdisplaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Federal Funds (Effective).” If such rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New YorkCity time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the Federal Funds Rate will be calculated by the Calculation Agent and will be thearithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight United States dollar Federal Funds arranged by three leading brokers ofUnited States dollar Federal Funds transactions in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’saffiliates, selected by the Company before 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Federal Funds Interest DeterminationDate; provided, however, that if the brokers selected as aforesaid by the Company are not quoting as mentioned in this sentence, theFederal Funds Rate will be the Federal Funds Rate in effect on the applicable Federal Funds Interest Determination Date.Determination of LIBOR. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, LIBOR, unlessotherwise specified above, “LIBOR” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the secondLondon Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “LIBOR Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate for deposits inUnited States dollars having a maturity of three months commencing on the first day of the applicable interest period that appears onReuters Screen LIBOR01 Page as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on that LIBOR Interest Determination Date. If no rate appears or suchrate is[HDFS Officers’ Certificate Pursuant to Sections 102 and 301 of the Indenture (Floating Rate Notes)]unavailable, then LIBOR, in respect of that LIBOR Interest Determination Date, will be determined in accordance with the provisionsdescribed below. With respect to a LIBOR Interest Determination Date on which no rate appears on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page orsuch rate is unavailable on a LIBOR Interest Determination Date, as specified above, the Company will request the principal Londonoffices of each of four major reference banks in the London interbank market, as selected by the Company, to provide the CalculationAgent with its offered quotation for deposits in United States dollars for the period of three months, commencing on the first day of theapplicable interest period, to prime banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that LIBORInterest Determination Date and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in United States dollars in thatmarket at that time. If at least two quotations are provided, then LIBOR on that LIBOR Interest Determination Date will be thearithmetic mean of those quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided, then LIBOR on the LIBOR Interest DeterminationDate will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the LIBOR InterestDetermination Date by three major banks in New York City selected by the Company for loans in United States dollars to leadingEuropean banks, having a three-month maturity and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in United Statesdollars in that market at that time; provided that if the banks selected by the Company are not providing quotations in the mannerdescribed by this sentence, LIBOR will be the same as the rate determined for the immediately preceding LIBOR InterestDetermination Date or if there is no immediately preceding LIBOR Interest Determination Date, LIBOR will be the same as the ratedetermined for the Initial Interest Period.Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines that three-month LIBOR has been permanently discontinued or thatit is no longer a widely recognized benchmark rate for such Floating Rate Notes, the Calculation Agent will use, as directed by theCompany, a substitute for LIBOR and for each future LIBOR Interest Determination Date, a reasonably comparable successor oralternative benchmark or rate for deposits in United States dollars (having a three-month maturity and in a principal amount that isrepresentative for a single transaction in United States dollars) that is, at such time, customarily accepted in market practice as abenchmark or rate for such Floating Rate Notes, which may include an alternative reference rate selected by the central bank, reservebank, monetary authority or any similar institution (including any committee or working group thereof) (the “Alternative Rate”). Aspart of such substitution, the Calculation Agent will, as directed by the Company, make such adjustments (positive or negative)(“Adjustments”) to the Alternative Rate or the spread thereon, as well as the Business Day convention, interest determination dates andrelated provisions and definitions, in each case that are consistent with accepted market practice for the use of such Alternative Rate fordebt obligations such as the Floating Rate Notes to reduce or eliminate, to the extent reasonably practicable in the circumstances, anyeconomic prejudice or benefit (as the case may be) to the Holders of Floating Rate Notes as a result of the replacement of LIBOR withthe Alternative Rate. If the Company determines that there is no clear market consensus as to whether any rate has replaced LIBOR incustomary market usage or what Adjustments are appropriate, the Company may appoint in its sole discretion an independent financialadvisor (the “IFA”) to determine an appropriate Alternative Rate, and any Adjustments, in accordance with the provisions of thisparagraph, and the decision of the IFA will be binding on the Company, the[HDFS Officers’ Certificate Pursuant to Sections 102 and 301 of the Indenture (Floating Rate Notes)]Calculation Agent, the Trustee and the Holders in the absence of demonstrable error. Until such time as an Alternative Rate and anyAdjustments have been determined, LIBOR will be the same as the rate determined for the immediately preceding LIBOR InterestDetermination Date or if there is no immediately preceding LIBOR Interest Determination Date, LIBOR will be the same as the ratedetermined for the Initial Interest Period.The Company will, promptly following the determination of any Alternative Rate or Adjustments, as applicable, give noticethereof, which shall specify the effective date(s) for such Alternative Rate or Adjustments, as applicable, and of any changes to theterms and conditions of the Floating Rate Notes, to the Trustee, the Calculation Agent, any paying agent and DTC or the Holders ofthe Floating Rate Notes, as applicable; provided that failure to provide such notice will have no impact on the effectiveness of, orotherwise invalidate, any such determination.“Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page” means the display designated on page “LIBOR01” on Reuters (or such other page as mayreplace the LIBOR01 page on that service or any successor or similar service for the purpose of displaying London interbank offeredrates for U.S. dollar deposits of major banks).All percentages resulting from any of the above calculations will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundredthousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point being rounded upwards (e.g., 8.986865% (or0.08986865) being rounded to 8.98687% (or 0.0898687)) and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculations will berounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upwards).The interest rate will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law as the same may be modified byUnited States laws of general application. The Calculation Agent will, upon the request of any Holder, provide the interest rate then ineffect. All calculations made by the Calculation Agent in the absence of demonstrable error will be conclusive for all purposes andbinding on the Company and the Holders.Determination of Prime Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the PrimeRate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Prime Rate” with respect to each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the CalculationAgent as of the first Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “Prime Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate setforth on such date as published in H.15(519) under the caption “Bank Prime Loan,” or if not so published prior to 3:00 p.m., NewYork City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Prime Interest Determination Date, then the Prime Rate. will beas published in H.15 Daily Update, or such other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rateunder the caption “Bank Prime Loan,” or if not so published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CalculationDate pertaining to such Prime Interest Determination Date, then the Prime Rate will be determined by the Calculation Agent as thearithmetic mean of the rates of interest publicly announced by each bank that appears on the Reuters Screen US PRIME 1 Page (asdefined below) as the particular bank’s prime rate or base lending rate as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable PrimeInterest Determination Date. If fewer than four such rates are so published by 3:00 p.m.,[HDFS Officers’ Certificate Pursuant to Sections 102 and 301 of the Indenture (Floating Rate Notes)]New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date as shown on the Reuters Screen US PRIME 1 Page for the Prime InterestDetermination Date, the Prime Rate will be determined by the Calculation Agent as the arithmetic mean of the prime rates or baselending rates quoted on the basis of the actual number of days in the year divided by a 360-day year as of the close of business on theapplicable Prime Interest Determination Date by three major banks, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’saffiliates, in the City of New York selected by the Company.

If the MaturityDate (or date of earlier redemption or repayment) of any Floating Rate Note would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, thepayment of interest and principal (and premium, if any) may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest on suchpayment will accrue for the period from and after the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment).Commencing with the first Interest Reset Date specified above following the Original Issue Date, the rate at which interest onthis Note is payable shall be adjusted daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually as specified above under “InterestReset Dates.”The interest rate borne by this Note will be determined as follows:(i) Unless the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as a “Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note” or an “Inverse FloatingRate Note” or in the event either “Other Provisions” or an Addendum hereto applies, in each case, relating to a different interest rateformula, this Note shall be designated as a “Regular Floating Rate Note” and, except as set forth below or specified above under“Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, shall bear interest at the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest RateBasis or Bases (a) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or (b) multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any; in eachcase as specified above. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shall bereset as of each Interest Reset Date specified above; provided, however, that the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from theOriginal Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate.(ii) If the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as a “Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note” then, except as set forthbelow or specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, this Note shall bear interest at the rate determined byreference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases (a) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or (b) multiplied by theSpread Multiplier, if any, in each case as specified above. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest onthis Note shall be payable shall be reset as of each Interest Reset Date; provided, however, that (y) the interest rate in effect for theperiod, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate and (z) the interest rate ineffect for the period commencing on, and including, the Fixed Rate Commencement Date specified above to the Maturity Date (or dateof earlier redemption or repayment) shall be the Fixed Interest Rate specified above or, if no Fixed Interest Rate is so specified, theinterest rate in effect on the day immediately preceding the Fixed Rate Commencement Date.[HDFS Officers’ Certificate Pursuant to Sections 102 and 301 of the Indenture (Floating Rate Notes)](iii) If the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as an “Inverse Floating Rate Note” then, except as set forth belowor specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, this Note shall bear interest at (a) the Fixed Interest Ratespecified above minus (b) the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases:(x) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or(y) multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any, in each case as specified above;provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, the interest rate hereonshall not be less than zero. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shallbe reset on each Interest Reset Date; provided, however, that the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original IssueDate to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate set forth above.The “Spread” is the number of basis points (one basis point equals one-hundredth of a percentage point) specified above to beadded to or subtracted from the Interest Rate Basis for a Floating Rate Note, and the “Spread Multiplier” is the percentage specifiedabove by which the Interest Rate Basis for such Floating Rate Note will be multiplied. Both a Spread and/or a Spread Multiplier maybe applicable to the Interest Rate Basis for a particular Floating Rate Note, as set forth above.Each such adjusted Interest Rate Basis shall be applicable on and after the Interest Reset Date to which it relates but notincluding the next succeeding Interest Reset Date. If any Interest Reset Date is a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest ResetDate shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day, except that if the rate of interest on this Note shall be determined byreference to LIBOR and such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Reset Date shall be theimmediately preceding Business Day. In addition, if the Treasury Rate is the applicable Interest Rate Basis and the InterestDetermination Date would otherwise fall on an Interest Reset Date, then the Interest Reset Date will be postponed to the nextsucceeding Business Day. Subject to applicable provisions of law (including usury laws) and except as specified in this Note, on eachInterest Reset Date, the rate of interest on this Note shall be the rate determined in accordance with the provisions of the applicableheading below.With respect to a Floating Rate Note, accrued interest shall be calculated by multiplying the principal amount thereof by anaccrued interest factor. Such accrued interest factor will be computed by adding the interest factors calculated for each day in theInterest Period or from the last date from which accrued interest is being calculated. The interest factor for each such day is computedby dividing the interest rate applicable to such day by 360, in the cases of CD Rate Notes, Commercial Paper Rate Notes, FederalFunds Rate Notes, LIBOR Notes and Prime Rate Notes or by the actual number of days in the year, in the cases of CMT Rate Notesand Treasury Rate Notes. The interest rate applicable to any day that is an Interest Reset Date will be the interest rate effective on suchInterest Reset Date. The interest rate applicable to any other day[HDFS Officers’ Certificate Pursuant to Sections 102 and 301 of the Indenture (Floating Rate Notes)]will be the interest rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Date (or, if none, the Initial Interest Rate, as specified above).The “Calculation Date,” where applicable, pertaining to an Interest Determination Date will be the earlier of (i) the tenthcalendar day after such Interest Determination Date or, if any such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day or(ii) the Business Day preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption orrepayment), as the case may be.For Floating Rate Notes, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. shall be the calculation agent unless anothercalculation agent is specified above (the “Calculation Agent”). The interest rate applicable to each interest period will be determined bythe Calculation Agent on or prior to the applicable Calculation Date. At the request of the Holder, the Calculation Agent will providethe interest rate then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate which will become effective on the next Interest Reset Date.All percentages resulting from any calculation of the rate of interest on a Floating Rate Note will be rounded, if necessary, tothe nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percent (.0000001), with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward, and alldollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculation on Floating Rate Notes will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half centbeing rounded upward).Determination of CD Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the CD Rate,unless otherwise specified above, the “CD Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of thesecond Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “CD Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate on the applicable CDInterest Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified above aspublished in H.15(519) (as defined below) on such CD Interest Determination Date under the heading “CDs (secondary market).” Ifthe rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date,the CD Rate shall be the rate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar certificates ofdeposit of the Index Maturity specified above as published in H.15 Daily Update (as defined below), or other recognized electronicsource used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “CDs (secondary market).” If the rate referred to in thepreceding sentence is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the CD Rate shall be therate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent on the Notes as the arithmetic mean of thesecondary market offered rates as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date, of threeleading non-bank dealers in negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit in the City of New York (which may include anagent or its affiliates) selected by the Company for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit of major United States moneymarket banks with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above in an amount that is representative for a singletransaction in that market at that time. If the dealers selected by the[HDFS Officers’ Certificate Pursuant to Sections 102 and 301 of the Indenture (Floating Rate Notes)]Company as provided in the preceding sentence are not quoting as mentioned in such sentence, the CD Rate shall be the CD Rate ineffect on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date.“H.15(519)” means the weekly statistical release designated as H.15(519), or any successor publication, published by theBoard of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.“H.15 Daily Update” means the daily update of H.15(519), available through the world-wide-web site of the Board ofGovernors of the Federal Reserve System at http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/h15/update, or any successor site or publication.Determination of CMT Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the CMT Rate,unless otherwise specified above, the “CMT Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of thesecond Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “CMT Interest Determination Date”) and shall be, if “CMT Reuters PageFRBCMT” is specified above, the percentage equal to the yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having theIndex Maturity specified above, as the yield is displayed on Reuters, Inc. (or any successor or similar service), on page FRBCMT (orany other page as may replace the specified page on that service under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities”) (“Reuters PageFRBCMT”). If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear on Reuters Page FRBCMT, the CMT Rate for suchCMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity”having the Index Maturity specified above, and for the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date as published in H.15(519) underthe caption “Treasury Constant Maturities.” In the event the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear in H.15(519),then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date forthe period of the Index Maturity specified above, as may then be published by either the Board of Governors of the Federal ReserveSystem or the United States Department of the Treasury that the Calculation Agent determines to be comparable to the rate whichwould otherwise have been published in H.15(519). In the event the rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not published, theCMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity basedon the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices at approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMTInterest Determination Date of three leading primary United States government securities dealers in the City of New York, which mayinclude an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates (each a “Reference Dealer”), selected by the Company (from five ReferenceDealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the highest), and the lowestquotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity equal to theIndex Maturity specified above, a remaining term to maturity no more than one year shorter than the Index Maturity specified aboveand in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five butmore than two of the prices referred to in the above sentence are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT InterestDetermination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neitherthe highest nor the lowest of the quotations shall be eliminated; provided, however, that if fewer than[HDFS Officers’ Certificate Pursuant to Sections 102 and 301 of the Indenture (Floating Rate Notes)]three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will becalculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as ofapproximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selectedby the Company from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation or, in the event ofequality, one of the highest and the lowest quotation or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest, for United States Treasury securitieswith an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity closest to the IndexMaturity specified above, and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at thattime. However, if fewer than five but more than two prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on theapplicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid pricesobtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations will be eliminated. If fewer than three prices referred to above areprovided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be the CMT Rate in effect on theapplicable CMT Interest Determination Date. If the CMT Reuters Page FEDCMT is specified above, the CMT Rate for such CMTInterest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the one-week or one-month, as specified above, and will be the average yieldfor United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as the yield is displayed onReuters, Inc. (or any successor service) on page FEDCMT (or any other page as may replace that specified page on that service)(“Reuters Page FEDCMT”), for the week or month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, inwhich the related CMT Interest Determination Date falls. If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear on ReutersPage FEDCMT, then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the one-week or one-month, as specified above, average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturityspecified above, and for the week or month, as applicable, preceding the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date as published inH.15(519) opposite the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities.” If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear inH.15(519), then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be the one-week or one-month, as specified above,average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as otherwiseannounced by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the week or month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week ormonth, as applicable, in which the related CMT Interest Determination Date falls. If the Federal Reserve Bank of New York does notpublish the rate referred to above, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the CalculationAgent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices at approximately 3:30 p.m., New YorkCity time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selected by the Company (from fiveReference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the highest), andthe lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturityequal to the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity no more than one year shorter than the Index Maturityspecified above, and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. Iffewer than five but more than two of the[HDFS Officers’ Certificate Pursuant to Sections 102 and 301 of the Indenture (Floating Rate Notes)]prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated bythe Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotationsshall be eliminated. If fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate on the applicable CMT InterestDetermination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondarymarket bid prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of threeReference Dealers selected by the Company (from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highestquotation or (in the event of equality, one of the highest) and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), forUnited States Treasury securities with an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term tomaturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above and will be in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction inthe securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five but more than two prices referred to above are provided as requested, the ratewill be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor thelowest of the quotations will be eliminated, or if fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate willbe the CMT Rate in effect on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date. If two United States Treasury securities with anoriginal maturity greater than the Index Maturity as specified above have remaining terms to maturity equally close to the IndexMaturity specified above, the quotes for the United States Treasury security with the shorter original remaining term to maturity will beused.Determination of Commercial Paper Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to,the Commercial Paper Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Commercial Paper Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will bedetermined by the Calculation Agent as of the second Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “Commercial Paper InterestDetermination Date”) and shall be the Money Market Yield (as defined below) on such date of the rate for commercial paper havingthe Index Maturity as indicated above, as such rate shall be published in H.15(519) under the caption “Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial.” In the event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date,then the Commercial Paper Rate shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent as the Money Market Yield of the Commercial PaperRate on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specifiedabove, published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate,under the caption “Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial.” If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, suchrate is not yet published as provided in the preceding sentence, then the Commercial Paper Rate on the applicable Commercial PaperInterest Determination Date shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent as the Money Market Yield of the arithmetic mean of theoffered rates at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date ofthree leading dealers of United States dollar commercial paper in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Companyor such agent’s affiliates, selected by the Calculation Agent for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified above, placedfor industrial issuers whose bond rating is “Aa,” or the equivalent, from a[HDFS Officers’ Certificate Pursuant to Sections 102 and 301 of the Indenture (Floating Rate Notes)]nationally recognized statistical rating organization; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Company are notquoting offered rates as mentioned in this sentence, the Commercial Paper Rate will be the Commercial Paper Rate in effect on theapplicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date.“Money Market Yield” shall be a yield calculated in accordance with the following formula and expressed as a percentage:Money market yield =D × 360× 100360 - (D × M)where “D” refers to the applicable per annum rate for commercial paper quoted on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal;and “M” refers to the actual number of days in the interest period for which interest is being calculated.Determination of Federal Funds Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to theFederal Funds Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Federal Funds Rate” with respect to each Interest Reset Date will bedetermined by the Calculation Agent as of the first Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “Federal Funds InterestDetermination Date”) and shall be the rate on that date for United States dollar Federal Funds as published in H.15(519) under theheading “Federal Funds (Effective),” as displayed on Reuters, Inc. (or any successor service) on page FEDFUND01 (or any otherpage as may replace the applicable page on that service) (“Reuters Page FEDFUND01”) or, if such rate does not appear on ReutersPage FEDFUND01, or is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the rate on theapplicable Federal Funds Interest Determination Date for United States dollar Federal Funds will be the rate on such Federal FundsInterest Determination Date as published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose ofdisplaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Federal Funds (Effective).” If such rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New YorkCity time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the Federal Funds Rate will be calculated by the Calculation Agent and will be thearithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight United States dollar Federal Funds arranged by three leading brokers ofUnited States dollar Federal Funds transactions in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’saffiliates, selected by the Company before 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Federal Funds Interest DeterminationDate; provided, however, that if the brokers selected as aforesaid by the Company are not quoting as mentioned in this sentence, theFederal Funds Rate will be the Federal Funds Rate in effect on the applicable Federal Funds Interest Determination Date.Determination of LIBOR. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, LIBOR, unlessotherwise specified above, “LIBOR” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the secondLondon Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “LIBOR Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate for deposits inUnited States dollars having a maturity of three months commencing on the first day of the applicable interest period that appears onReuters Screen LIBOR01 Page as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on that LIBOR Interest Determination Date. If no rate appears or suchrate is[HDFS Officers’ Certificate Pursuant to Sections 102 and 301 of the Indenture (Floating Rate Notes)]unavailable, then LIBOR, in respect of that LIBOR Interest Determination Date, will be determined in accordance with the provisionsdescribed below. With respect to a LIBOR Interest Determination Date on which no rate appears on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page orsuch rate is unavailable on a LIBOR Interest Determination Date, as specified above, the Company will request the principal Londonoffices of each of four major reference banks in the London interbank market, as selected by the Company, to provide the CalculationAgent with its offered quotation for deposits in United States dollars for the period of three months, commencing on the first day of theapplicable interest period, to prime banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that LIBORInterest Determination Date and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in United States dollars in thatmarket at that time. If at least two quotations are provided, then LIBOR on that LIBOR Interest Determination Date will be thearithmetic mean of those quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided, then LIBOR on the LIBOR Interest DeterminationDate will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the LIBOR InterestDetermination Date by three major banks in New York City selected by the Company for loans in United States dollars to leadingEuropean banks, having a three-month maturity and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in United Statesdollars in that market at that time; provided that if the banks selected by the Company are not providing quotations in the mannerdescribed by this sentence, LIBOR will be the same as the rate determined for the immediately preceding LIBOR InterestDetermination Date or if there is no immediately preceding LIBOR Interest Determination Date, LIBOR will be the same as the ratedetermined for the Initial Interest Period.Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines that three-month LIBOR has been permanently discontinued or thatit is no longer a widely recognized benchmark rate for such Floating Rate Notes, the Calculation Agent will use, as directed by theCompany, a substitute for LIBOR and for each future LIBOR Interest Determination Date, a reasonably comparable successor oralternative benchmark or rate for deposits in United States dollars (having a three-month maturity and in a principal amount that isrepresentative for a single transaction in United States dollars) that is, at such time, customarily accepted in market practice as abenchmark or rate for such Floating Rate Notes, which may include an alternative reference rate selected by the central bank, reservebank, monetary authority or any similar institution (including any committee or working group thereof) (the “Alternative Rate”). Aspart of such substitution, the Calculation Agent will, as directed by the Company, make such adjustments (positive or negative)(“Adjustments”) to the Alternative Rate or the spread thereon, as well as the Business Day convention, interest determination dates andrelated provisions and definitions, in each case that are consistent with accepted market practice for the use of such Alternative Rate fordebt obligations such as the Floating Rate Notes to reduce or eliminate, to the extent reasonably practicable in the circumstances, anyeconomic prejudice or benefit (as the case may be) to the Holders of Floating Rate Notes as a result of the replacement of LIBOR withthe Alternative Rate. If the Company determines that there is no clear market consensus as to whether any rate has replaced LIBOR incustomary market usage or what Adjustments are appropriate, the Company may appoint in its sole discretion an independent financialadvisor (the “IFA”) to determine an appropriate Alternative Rate, and any Adjustments, in accordance with the provisions of thisparagraph, and the decision of the IFA will be binding on the Company, the[HDFS Officers’ Certificate Pursuant to Sections 102 and 301 of the Indenture (Floating Rate Notes)]Calculation Agent, the Trustee and the Holders in the absence of demonstrable error. Until such time as an Alternative Rate and anyAdjustments have been determined, LIBOR will be the same as the rate determined for the immediately preceding LIBOR InterestDetermination Date or if there is no immediately preceding LIBOR Interest Determination Date, LIBOR will be the same as the ratedetermined for the Initial Interest Period.The Company will, promptly following the determination of any Alternative Rate or Adjustments, as applicable, give noticethereof, which shall specify the effective date(s) for such Alternative Rate or Adjustments, as applicable, and of any changes to theterms and conditions of the Floating Rate Notes, to the Trustee, the Calculation Agent, any paying agent and DTC or the Holders ofthe Floating Rate Notes, as applicable; provided that failure to provide such notice will have no impact on the effectiveness of, orotherwise invalidate, any such determination.“Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page” means the display designated on page “LIBOR01” on Reuters (or such other page as mayreplace the LIBOR01 page on that service or any successor or similar service for the purpose of displaying London interbank offeredrates for U.S. dollar deposits of major banks).All percentages resulting from any of the above calculations will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundredthousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point being rounded upwards (e.g., 8.986865% (or0.08986865) being rounded to 8.98687% (or 0.0898687)) and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculations will berounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upwards).The interest rate will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law as the same may be modified byUnited States laws of general application. The Calculation Agent will, upon the request of any Holder, provide the interest rate then ineffect. All calculations made by the Calculation Agent in the absence of demonstrable error will be conclusive for all purposes andbinding on the Company and the Holders.Determination of Prime Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the PrimeRate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Prime Rate” with respect to each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the CalculationAgent as of the first Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “Prime Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate setforth on such date as published in H.15(519) under the caption “Bank Prime Loan,” or if not so published prior to 3:00 p.m., NewYork City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Prime Interest Determination Date, then the Prime Rate. will beas published in H.15 Daily Update, or such other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rateunder the caption “Bank Prime Loan,” or if not so published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CalculationDate pertaining to such Prime Interest Determination Date, then the Prime Rate will be determined by the Calculation Agent as thearithmetic mean of the rates of interest publicly announced by each bank that appears on the Reuters Screen US PRIME 1 Page (asdefined below) as the particular bank’s prime rate or base lending rate as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable PrimeInterest Determination Date.
