The restricted stock units vest in equal annual installments over a three-year period and will become fully vested on October 24, 2025. Since the date of the reporting person's last ownership report, she transferred 303 shares of the Company's common stock to her ex-husband pursuant to a divorce decree. These performance stock unit (PSU) awards, granted on October 24, 2019, had a three-year performance period that started on September 1, 2019 and ended on August 31, 2022. On October 24, 2022, the Compensation and Management Development Committee certified the achievement of the performance measure (return on invested capital in excess of the weighted cost of capital) at the maximum level (200%) and authorized the subsequent issuance of common stock underlying the PSUs.

Such withholding is required under the Company's standard processes for such events. The total direct shares owned includes 11,910 time-vesting restricted shares/units and 4 shares held in the employee stock purchase plan. Jill A. Gilmer, under Power of Attorney for Karen J.
