President, Marmon Utility (a manufacturer of medium-high voltage utility, subsea and down-hole power cables and molded insulator systems), March 2011 to September 2013. The fair value of the trade names is calculated using a “relief from royalty” methodology. The fair value of in-process research and development was calculated using the income approach.

The most common use—coatings and plastics—accounts for more than 80 percent of global consumption.
