management 2019s discussion and analysis liquidity risk management liquidity is of critical importance to financial institutions . most of the recent failures of financial institutions have occurred in large part due to insufficient liquidity . accordingly , the firm has in place a comprehensive and conservative set of liquidity and funding policies to address both firm-specific and broader industry or market liquidity events . our principal objective is to be able to fund the firm and to enable our core businesses to continue to serve clients and generate revenues , even under adverse circumstances . we manage liquidity risk according to the following principles : excess liquidity . we maintain substantial excess liquidity to meet a broad range of potential cash outflows and collateral needs in a stressed environment . asset-liability management . we assess anticipated holding periods for our assets and their expected liquidity in a stressed environment . we manage the maturities and diversity of our funding across markets , products and counterparties , and seek to maintain liabilities of appropriate tenor relative to our asset base . contingency funding plan . we maintain a contingency funding plan to provide a framework for analyzing and responding to a liquidity crisis situation or periods of market stress . this framework sets forth the plan of action to fund normal business activity in emergency and stress situations . these principles are discussed in more detail below . excess liquidity our most important liquidity policy is to pre-fund our estimated potential cash and collateral needs during a liquidity crisis and hold this excess liquidity in the form of unencumbered , highly liquid securities and cash . we believe that the securities held in our global core excess would be readily convertible to cash in a matter of days , through liquidation , by entering into repurchase agreements or from maturities of reverse repurchase agreements , and that this cash would allow us to meet immediate obligations without needing to sell other assets or depend on additional funding from credit-sensitive markets . as of december 2012 and december 2011 , the fair value of the securities and certain overnight cash deposits included in our gce totaled $ 174.62 billion and $ 171.58 billion , respectively . based on the results of our internal liquidity risk model , discussed below , as well as our consideration of other factors including , but not limited to , a qualitative assessment of the condition of the financial markets and the firm , we believe our liquidity position as of december 2012 was appropriate . the table below presents the fair value of the securities and certain overnight cash deposits that are included in our gce . average for the year ended december in millions 2012 2011 . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>in millions</td><td>average for theyear ended december 2012</td><td>average for theyear ended december 2011</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>u.s . dollar-denominated</td><td>$ 125111</td><td>$ 125668</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>non-u.s . dollar-denominated</td><td>46984</td><td>40291</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>total</td><td>$ 172095</td><td>$ 165959</td></tr></table> the u.s . dollar-denominated excess is composed of ( i ) unencumbered u.s . government and federal agency obligations ( including highly liquid u.s . federal agency mortgage-backed obligations ) , all of which are eligible as collateral in federal reserve open market operations and ( ii ) certain overnight u.s . dollar cash deposits . the non-u.s . dollar-denominated excess is composed of only unencumbered german , french , japanese and united kingdom government obligations and certain overnight cash deposits in highly liquid currencies . we strictly limit our excess liquidity to this narrowly defined list of securities and cash because they are highly liquid , even in a difficult funding environment . we do not include other potential sources of excess liquidity , such as less liquid unencumbered securities or committed credit facilities , in our gce . goldman sachs 2012 annual report 81 .

note 18 2013 earnings per share ( eps ) basic eps is calculated by dividing net earnings attributable to allegion plc by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the applicable period . diluted eps is calculated after adjusting the denominator of the basic eps calculation for the effect of all potentially dilutive ordinary shares , which in the company 2019s case , includes shares issuable under share-based compensation plans . the following table summarizes the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share calculations. . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>in millions</td><td>2017</td><td>2016</td><td>2015</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>weighted-average number of basic

number of diluted shares</td><td>96.0</td><td>96.9</td><td>96.9</td></tr></table> at december 31 , 2017 , 0.1 million stock options were excluded from the computation of weighted average diluted shares outstanding because the effect of including these shares would have been anti-dilutive . note 19 2013 commitments and contingencies the company is involved in various litigations , claims and administrative proceedings , including those related to environmental and product warranty matters . amounts recorded for identified contingent liabilities are estimates , which are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional information when it becomes available . subject to the uncertainties inherent in estimating future costs for contingent liabilities , except as expressly set forth in this note , management believes that any liability which may result from these legal matters would not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition , results of operations , liquidity or cash flows of the company . environmental matters the company is dedicated to an environmental program to reduce the utilization and generation of hazardous materials during the manufacturing process and to remediate identified environmental concerns . as to the latter , the company is currently engaged in site investigations and remediation activities to address environmental cleanup from past operations at current and former production facilities . the company regularly evaluates its remediation programs and considers alternative remediation methods that are in addition to , or in replacement of , those currently utilized by the company based upon enhanced technology and regulatory changes . changes to the company's remediation programs may result in increased expenses and increased environmental reserves . the company is sometimes a party to environmental lawsuits and claims and has received notices of potential violations of environmental laws and regulations from the u.s . environmental protection agency and similar state authorities . it has also been identified as a potentially responsible party ( "prp" ) for cleanup costs associated with off-site waste disposal at federal superfund and state remediation sites . for all such sites , there are other prps and , in most instances , the company 2019s involvement is minimal . in estimating its liability , the company has assumed it will not bear the entire cost of remediation of any site to the exclusion of other prps who may be jointly and severally liable . the ability of other prps to participate has been taken into account , based on our understanding of the parties 2019 financial condition and probable contributions on a per site basis . additional lawsuits and claims involving environmental matters are likely to arise from time to time in the future . the company incurred $ 3.2 million , $ 23.3 million , and $ 4.4 million of expenses during the years ended december 31 , 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively , for environmental remediation at sites presently or formerly owned or leased by the company . in the fourth-quarter of 2016 , with the collaboration and approval of state regulators , the company launched a proactive , alternative approach to remediate two sites in the united states . this approach will allow the company to more aggressively address environmental conditions at these sites and reduce the impact of potential changes in regulatory requirements . as a result , the company recorded a $ 15 million charge for environmental remediation in the fourth quarter of 2016 . environmental remediation costs are recorded in costs of goods sold within the consolidated statements of comprehensive income . as of december 31 , 2017 and 2016 , the company has recorded reserves for environmental matters of $ 28.9 million and $ 30.6 million . the total reserve at december 31 , 2017 and 2016 included $ 8.9 million and $ 9.6 million related to remediation of sites previously disposed by the company . environmental reserves are classified as accrued expenses and other current liabilities or other noncurrent liabilities based on their expected term . the company's total current environmental reserve at december 31 , 2017 and 2016 was $ 12.6 million and $ 6.1 million and the remainder is classified as noncurrent . given the evolving nature of environmental laws , regulations and technology , the ultimate cost of future compliance is uncertain. .

paper conduits the company is active in the asset-backed commercial paper conduit business as administrator of several multi-seller commercial paper conduits , and also as a service provider to single-seller and other commercial paper conduits sponsored by third parties . the multi-seller commercial paper conduits are designed to provide the company 2019s customers access to low-cost funding in the commercial paper markets . the conduits purchase assets from or provide financing facilities to customers and are funded by issuing commercial paper to third-party investors . the conduits generally do not purchase assets originated by the company . the funding of the conduit is facilitated by the liquidity support and credit enhancements provided by the company and by certain third parties . as administrator to the conduits , the company is responsible for selecting and structuring of assets purchased or financed by the conduits , making decisions regarding the funding of the conduits , including determining the tenor and other features of the commercial paper issued , monitoring the quality and performance of the conduits 2019 assets , and facilitating the operations and cash flows of the conduits . in return , the company earns structuring fees from clients for individual transactions and earns an administration fee from the conduit , which is equal to the income from client program and liquidity fees of the conduit after payment of interest costs and other fees . this administration fee is fairly stable , since most risks and rewards of the underlying assets are passed back to the customers and , once the asset pricing is negotiated , most ongoing income , costs and fees are relatively stable as a percentage of the conduit 2019s size . the conduits administered by the company do not generally invest in liquid securities that are formally rated by third parties . the assets are privately negotiated and structured transactions that are designed to be held by the conduit , rather than actively traded and sold . the yield earned by the conduit on each asset is generally tied to the rate on the commercial paper issued by the conduit , thus passing interest rate risk to the client . each asset purchased by the conduit is structured with transaction-specific credit enhancement features provided by the third-party seller , including over- collateralization , cash and excess spread collateral accounts , direct recourse or third-party guarantees . these credit enhancements are sized with the objective of approximating a credit rating of a or above , based on the company 2019s internal risk ratings . substantially all of the funding of the conduits is in the form of short- term commercial paper . as of december 31 , 2008 , the weighted average life of the commercial paper issued was approximately 37 days . in addition , the conduits have issued subordinate loss notes and equity with a notional amount of approximately $ 80 million and varying remaining tenors ranging from six months to seven years . the primary credit enhancement provided to the conduit investors is in the form of transaction-specific credit enhancement described above . in addition , there are two additional forms of credit enhancement that protect the commercial paper investors from defaulting assets . first , the subordinate loss notes issued by each conduit absorb any credit losses up to their full notional amount . it is expected that the subordinate loss notes issued by each conduit are sufficient to absorb a majority of the expected losses from each conduit , thereby making the single investor in the subordinate loss note the primary beneficiary under fin 46 ( r ) . second , each conduit has obtained a letter of credit from the company , which is generally 8-10% ( 8-10 % ) of the conduit 2019s assets . the letters of credit provided by the company total approximately $ 5.8 billion and are included in the company 2019s maximum exposure to loss . the net result across all multi-seller conduits administered by the company is that , in the event of defaulted assets in excess of the transaction-specific credit enhancement described above , any losses in each conduit are allocated in the following order : 2022 subordinate loss note holders 2022 the company 2022 the commercial paper investors the company , along with third parties , also provides the conduits with two forms of liquidity agreements that are used to provide funding to the conduits in the event of a market disruption , among other events . each asset of the conduit is supported by a transaction-specific liquidity facility in the form of an asset purchase agreement ( apa ) . under the apa , the company has agreed to purchase non-defaulted eligible receivables from the conduit at par . any assets purchased under the apa are subject to increased pricing . the apa is not designed to provide credit support to the conduit , as it generally does not permit the purchase of defaulted or impaired assets and generally reprices the assets purchased to consider potential increased credit risk . the apa covers all assets in the conduits and is considered in the company 2019s maximum exposure to loss . in addition , the company provides the conduits with program-wide liquidity in the form of short-term lending commitments . under these commitments , the company has agreed to lend to the conduits in the event of a short-term disruption in the commercial paper market , subject to specified conditions . the total notional exposure under the program-wide liquidity agreement is $ 11.3 billion and is considered in the company 2019s maximum exposure to loss . the company receives fees for providing both types of liquidity agreement and considers these fees to be on fair market terms. .

recourse and repurchase obligations as discussed in note 3 loans sale and servicing activities and variable interest entities , pnc has sold commercial mortgage and residential mortgage loans directly or indirectly in securitizations and whole-loan sale transactions with continuing involvement . one form of continuing involvement includes certain recourse and loan repurchase obligations associated with the transferred assets in these transactions . commercial mortgage loan recourse obligations we originate , close and service certain multi-family commercial mortgage loans which are sold to fnma under fnma 2019s dus program . we participated in a similar program with the fhlmc . under these programs , we generally assume up to a one-third pari passu risk of loss on unpaid principal balances through a loss share arrangement . at december 31 , 2011 and december 31 , 2010 , the unpaid principal balance outstanding of loans sold as a participant in these programs was $ 13.0 billion and $ 13.2 billion , respectively . the potential maximum exposure under the loss share arrangements was $ 4.0 billion at both december 31 , 2011 and december 31 , 2010 . we maintain a reserve for estimated losses based upon our exposure . the reserve for losses under these programs totaled $ 47 million and $ 54 million as of december 31 , 2011 and december 31 , 2010 , respectively , and is included in other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet . if payment is required under these programs , we would not have a contractual interest in the collateral underlying the mortgage loans on which losses occurred , although the value of the collateral is taken into account in determining our share of such losses . our exposure and activity associated with these recourse obligations are reported

non-recourse basis , we assume certain loan repurchase obligations associated with mortgage loans we have sold to investors . these loan repurchase obligations primarily relate to situations where pnc is alleged to have breached certain origination covenants and representations and warranties made to purchasers of the loans in the respective purchase and sale agreements . residential mortgage loans covered by these loan repurchase obligations include first and second-lien mortgage loans we have sold through agency securitizations , non-agency securitizations , and whole-loan sale transactions . as discussed in note 3 in this report , agency securitizations consist of mortgage loans sale transactions with fnma , fhlmc , and gnma , while non-agency securitizations and whole-loan sale transactions consist of mortgage loans sale transactions with private investors . our historical exposure and activity associated with agency securitization repurchase obligations has primarily been related to transactions with fnma and fhlmc , as indemnification and repurchase losses associated with fha and va-insured and uninsured loans pooled in gnma securitizations historically have been minimal . repurchase obligation activity associated with residential mortgages is reported in the residential mortgage banking segment . pnc 2019s repurchase obligations also include certain brokered home equity loans/lines that were sold to a limited number of private investors in the financial services industry by national city prior to our acquisition . pnc is no longer engaged in the brokered home equity lending business , and our exposure under these loan repurchase obligations is limited to repurchases of whole-loans sold in these transactions . repurchase activity associated with brokered home equity loans/lines is reported in the non-strategic assets portfolio segment . loan covenants and representations and warranties are established through loan sale agreements with various investors to provide assurance that pnc has sold loans to investors of sufficient investment quality . key aspects of such covenants and representations and warranties include the loan 2019s compliance with any applicable loan criteria established by the investor , including underwriting standards , delivery of all required loan documents to the investor or its designated party , sufficient collateral valuation , and the validity of the lien securing the loan . as a result of alleged breaches of these contractual obligations , investors may request pnc to indemnify them against losses on certain loans or to repurchase loans . these investor indemnification or repurchase claims are typically settled on an individual loan basis through make- whole payments or loan repurchases ; however , on occasion we may negotiate pooled settlements with investors . indemnifications for loss or loan repurchases typically occur when , after review of the claim , we agree insufficient evidence exists to dispute the investor 2019s claim that a breach of a loan covenant and representation and warranty has occurred , such breach has not been cured , and the effect of such breach is deemed to have had a material and adverse effect on the value of the transferred loan . depending on the sale agreement and upon proper notice from the investor , we typically respond to such indemnification and repurchase requests within 60 days , although final resolution of the claim may take a longer period of time . with the exception of the sales the pnc financial services group

non-recourse basis , we assume certain loan repurchase obligations associated with mortgage loans we have sold to investors . these loan repurchase obligations primarily relate to situations where pnc is alleged to have breached certain origination covenants and representations and warranties made to purchasers of the loans in the respective purchase and sale agreements . residential mortgage loans covered by these loan repurchase obligations include first and second-lien mortgage loans we have sold through agency securitizations , non-agency securitizations , and whole-loan sale transactions . as discussed in note 3 in this report , agency securitizations consist of mortgage loans sale transactions with fnma , fhlmc , and gnma , while non-agency securitizations and whole-loan sale transactions consist of mortgage loans sale transactions with private investors . our historical exposure and activity associated with agency securitization repurchase obligations has primarily been related to transactions with fnma and fhlmc , as indemnification and repurchase losses associated with fha and va-insured and uninsured loans pooled in gnma securitizations historically have been minimal . repurchase obligation activity associated with residential mortgages is reported in the residential mortgage banking segment . pnc 2019s repurchase obligations also include certain brokered home equity loans/lines that were sold to a limited number of private investors in the financial services industry by national city prior to our acquisition . pnc is no longer engaged in the brokered home equity lending business , and our exposure under these loan repurchase obligations is limited to repurchases of whole-loans sold in these transactions . repurchase activity associated with brokered home equity loans/lines is reported in the non-strategic assets portfolio segment . loan covenants and representations and warranties are established through loan sale agreements with various investors to provide assurance that pnc has sold loans to investors of sufficient investment quality . key aspects of such covenants and representations and warranties include the loan 2019s compliance with any applicable loan criteria established by the investor , including underwriting standards , delivery of all required loan documents to the investor or its designated party , sufficient collateral valuation , and the validity of the lien securing the loan . as a result of alleged breaches of these contractual obligations , investors may request pnc to indemnify them against losses on certain loans or to repurchase loans . these investor indemnification or repurchase claims are typically settled on an individual loan basis through make- whole payments or loan repurchases ; however , on occasion we may negotiate pooled settlements with investors . indemnifications for loss or loan repurchases typically occur when , after review of the claim , we agree insufficient evidence exists to dispute the investor 2019s claim that a breach of a loan covenant and representation and warranty has occurred , such breach has not been cured , and the effect of such breach is deemed to have had a material and adverse effect on the value of the transferred loan . depending on the sale agreement and upon proper notice from the investor , we typically respond to such indemnification and repurchase requests within 60 days , although final resolution of the claim may take a longer period of time . with the exception of the sales the pnc financial services group , inc . 2013 form 10-k 199 .
