        <footnote id="F1">As reported on a Form 4 filed on May 22, 2020, the Compensation Committee determined to set payments under the fiscal 2020 short term incentive program at threshold (i.e. 50 percent of target) and make payouts following the end of fiscal 2020 in the form of Company common stock. The amount of shares listed as acquired on the prior Form 4 represented 90 percent of the total award amount for the recipient at threshold because the award amount remained subject to a safety modifier. The amount of shares listed as acquired on this Form 4 includes the remaining 10 percent of the share amount for the recipient, plus an additional 5 percent based on the certification by the Committee of safety results.</footnote>
