We are a global leader in the light and commercial vehicle replacement products and services industry, which is also referred to as the aftermarket. Our extensive aftermarket product offering consists principally of filtration, brake and chassis products. Our filtration products fit heavy and medium duty trucks, light vehicles, equipment in the off-highway market (i.e., construction, mining, forestry and agricultural) and equipment for industrial and marine applications. Our brake and chassis products fit light vehicles and heavy and medium duty trucks. In addition, we provide aftermarket products and distribution services in South America. We believe that the growth of the global aftermarket, from which we derived approximately 98% of our net sales in 2009, is predominantly driven by the size, age and use of the population of vehicles and equipment in operation. We design, manufacture, distribute and market a broad range of aftermarket products in North America, South America, Europe and Asia and generate sales in over 70 countries. Based on management estimates and certain information from third parties, we believe that we hold the #1 market position in North American aftermarket filtration and brake products and the #2 market positions in North American aftermarket chassis products and Brazilian aftermarket parts distribution by net sales for the year ended December 31, 2009.
