Payouts which can be earned under these annual cash incentive bonus awards are generally tied to achieving specified levels (threshold, target and maximum) of pre-specified performance measures for the performance period. For the NEOs, all of whom except Mr. Caravati are Corporate executives, the performance measures are Corporate EVA and Corporate EPS, with each carrying a 50% weighting. For Mr. Caravati, a business segment (Consumer Products) executive, the performance measures and their weightings are: Corporate EPS, 20%; business segment EBIT, 50%; and business segment EVA, 30%. For all calculations, restructuring charges and non-recurring items are to be excluded and Corporate EPS results will be adjusted to eliminate the impact of inventory holding gains and losses. If the performance level falls between threshold and target or between target and maximum, the award will be linearly pro-rated. If threshold levels are not reached for any performance measure, no annual cash incentive bonus will be paid for that measure. Annual cash incentive bonus award payouts earned will be made within a reasonable time following the end of Fiscal 2023. In the event of a change in control of the Company (followed by actual or constructive termination of an NEO’s employment during the performance period), the annual cash incentive bonus award would be considered to be earned at “target” and payable as of the date of termination of employment.

These columns show the potential payouts under the long-term cash performance awards and the long-term performance share awards granted to each of the NEOs, for the three-fiscal-year performance period from Fiscal 2024 to Fiscal 2026. Payouts of long-term cash performance awards and long-term performance share awards are tied to achieving specified levels (threshold, target and maximum) of specified performance measures for the three-fiscal-year performance period. For the NEOs, all of whom except Mr. Caravati are Corporate executives, the performance measures are cumulative Corporate EVA for the performance period and EPS growth over the performance period, with each performance measure carrying a 50% weighting. For business segment executives (including Mr. Caravati), the performance measures and their weightings are: cumulative Corporate EVA, 25%; Corporate EPS growth, 25%; business segment EBIT, 50%. In all calculations, restructuring charges and non-recurring items are to be excluded, and Corporate results will be adjusted to eliminate the impact of inventory holding gains or losses. No awards are to be paid or distributed if none of the three-fiscal-year threshold financial measures are met. If the performance levels fall between threshold and target or between target and maximum, the award will be linearly pro-rated.

Effective June 30, 2023, the NEOs were granted non-qualified stock options under the 2010 Stock Option Plan with respect to the number of common shares shown, with an exercise price equal to $69.47, the fair market value of the underlying common shares on the date of grant. The stock options become exercisable over three years in increments of one-third per year on each anniversary of their grant date.

These annual time-vested restricted common share awards were granted effective June 30, 2023 under the 1997 LTIP and will generally cliff vest three years after the grant date.
