PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE DISCLOSURE

Pursuant to Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act and Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the following table sets forth information regarding certain financial performance metrics of the Company and the “compensation actually paid” (“CAP”) to our NEOs, using a methodology that has been prescribed by the SEC.

The C/HC Committee does not utilize CAP as the basis for making compensation decisions. For further information concerning our compensation philosophy and how we align executive compensation with our performance, see the CD&A.
