2023-2025 Performance Stock Unit Plan. The Compensation and Talent Management Committee of the Board approved the 2023-2025 Performance Stock Unit Plan (“2023-2025 PSU”) under which certain employees would be eligible to receive a portion of their long-term incentives in the form of performance share units based on the achievement of organic net sales growth and aggregate operating cash flow. Awards are paid in shares at the end of the performance period, except for amounts withheld by the Company for statutory withholding requirements. In addition, the independent members of the Board granted 2023-2025 PSU target awards of 99,810 shares for Steve Cahillane; 28,960 shares for Amit Banati; 30,170 shares for Chris Hood; and 22,930 shares for Gary Pilnick. Participants in the 2023-2025 PSU have the opportunity to earn between 0% and 200% of their PSU target. Dividend equivalents accrue and vest in accordance with the underlying PSU award. A copy of the 2023-2025 PSU is attached as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated in its entirety into this Item.

Awards are paid in shares when vesting requirements are met, except for amounts withheld by the Company for statutory withholding requirements. Dividend equivalents accrue and vest in accordance with the underlying RSU award. Under the terms of the grants, the RSUs vest on the third anniversary of the grant date.
