As the company looks forward to the next 100 years, we pause to remember our past. While we celebrate a century of success, we acknowledge
the millions of employees — extending over many generations — dealers, suppliers, and countless others around the globe whose contributions and
efforts have strengthened the company throughout every era. We recognize that, along with our shareholders and customers, we all share a certain sense
of belonging to a larger family, an extended family, that gives us confidence as we boldly start our second century.
