Additional 402(v) Disclosure The amounts set forth above for compensation actually paid to PEO and non-PEO NEOs (as set forth in the “Compensation
Actually Paid to PEO” and “Average Compensation Actually Paid to Non-PEO NEOs” columns) have been calculated in
accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K and do not reflect compensation actually earned, realized or received by the
company’s NEOs. These amounts reflect the Summary Compensation Table total with certain adjustments as described in
footnote 3 below.
Compensation actually paid to PEO and non-PEO NEOs (as set forth in the “Compensation Actually Paid to PEO” and
“Average Compensation Actually Paid to Non-PEO NEOs” columns) reflects the exclusions and inclusions of certain
amounts for the PEO and the Non-PEO NEOs as set forth below. Related information regarding compensation paid in 2020,
2021, 2022, and 2023 has not changed from what was included in the company’s 2023 proxy statement and what is set forth
in the proxy statement, and as such, information for such years has not been included in the following tables. Equity values
are calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Amounts in the “Exclusion (or Average Exclusion) of Stock Awards
and Option Awards” columns are the totals from the “Stock Awards” and “Option Awards” columns set forth in the Summary
Compensation Table. Amounts in the “Exclusion (or Average Exclusion) of Change in Pension Value” columns reflect the
amounts attributable to the “Change in Pension Value” reported in the Summary Compensation Table. Amounts in the
“Inclusion (or Average Inclusion) of Pension Service Cost” columns are based on the service cost for services rendered
during the listed year.
The amounts set forth above includes net income (loss) inclusive of discontinued operations.The company determined net sales, inclusive of discontinued operations, to be the most important financial performance
measure used to link company performance to “Compensation Actually Paid” to the company's PEO and Non-PEO NEOs in
2024.
As described in “—Proxy Statement Highlights—Performance Highlights” and in “—Compensation Discussion
and Analysis—Executive Summary—2024 Company Results,” for purposes of calculating performance under the
company’s 2024 annual incentive plan, net sales were calculated at budgeted exchange rates as of January 1,
2024 and include net sales from discontinued operations.  This amount (which is referred to as Adjusted Net
Sales Including Discontinued Operations in the proxy statement) was $15,181 million for 2024.
The financial performance measures that the company considers to have been the most important in linking
Compensation Actually Paid to the company's PEO and Non-PEO NEOs to company performance are shown
