Named Executive Officers, Footnote     The table above reflects our current and two former PEOs. Mr. Berquist became our current PEO on
November 18, 2024. Our most recent
former PEO is Mr. Tometich, who served as CEO from December 1, 2021 to November 18, 2024. Mr. Barry who served as our PEO through November 30, 2021, is also listed in the table.
         
Peer Group Issuers, Footnote     Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) assumes $100 invested on December 31, 2019, including reinvestment of dividends. Our Peer Group is the S&P Composite 1500 Chemicals Index. Our prior Peer Group in our proxy statement for the 2024 annual meeting of shareholders was the S&P 400 MidCap Materials Index. The Company shifted from the S&P 400 MidCap Materials Index to the S&P Composite 1500 Chemicals Index to align with the peer group industry index reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.          
Adjustment To PEO Compensation, Footnote     The dollar amounts represent the amount of CAP as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K. The dollar amounts do not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned or paid to the PEOs or Non-PEO NEOs during the applicable year. None of our NEOs participated in a pension plan for 2024; therefore, no adjustment from the Summary Compensation Table (“SCT”) total related to pension value was made. To calculate CAP for the current and former PEOs, the following amounts were deducted from and added to SCT total compensation.

5. In calculating CAP, the Company determined the fair value of outstanding and vested equity awards in the applicable fiscal year in accordance with the SEC rules for CAP and computed in a manner consistent with the fair valuation methodology used to account for share-based payments for financial reporting purposes consistent with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. For restricted stock, CAP values are based on closing share price at the applicable measurement date. For performance share units, the CAP values are estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation incorporating assumptions regarding risk-free interest rate, dividend yield and expected term as of the applicable measurement date, as well as estimates as to the probable outcome of performance conditions as of the measurement date. For options, the valuations of outstanding awards as of the applicable measurement date are based on a Black-Scholes option pricing model that incorporate assumptions regarding dividend yield, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate and expected term to determine the fair value for CAP purposes. For more information about the Company’s share-based accounting, see Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 provided with this proxy statement. For more information about the probability of achievement of outstanding performance units, see the “Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End” table.
