Perry E. Davis, former EVP, President – Residential Products & Industrial Products (SVP – Operations, 1/1/2020 through 2/7/2020) retired February 7, 2020.

The 2020 annual base salary rates were originally approved by the Committee on November 4, 2019. Because of various cost-cutting measures adopted by the Company in response to the economic downturn and uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the rates were reduced, effective April 12, 2020, by 50%. On June 29, 2020, effective July 5, 2020, the annual base salary rates were reinstated to their original levels.

As previously reported, on August 6, 2019, Mr. Tate was appointed Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, effective September 3, 2019 (the “Start Date”). In addition to his base salary, Mr. Tate received a one-time cash sign-on bonus of $250,000 upon the Start Date, which must be repaid if he terminates his employment without “Good Reason,” or is terminated for “Cause” within the first year of employment, and half of which must be repaid, under the same circumstances, within the second year of employment. Also, if Mr. Tate is terminated, other than for “Cause,” death or disability, or if he terminates his employment for “Good Reason,” then the Company must pay Mr. Tate (a) 12 months of base salary if the termination occurs within the first 12 months after the Start Date, or 6 months of base salary if the termination occurs between 12 and 24 months after the Start Date; (b) a pro-rata incentive award under the KOIP for the year in which the termination occurred; and (c) a lump sum payment equal to 18 months of COBRA medical coverage. The Company must also provide reasonable and customary outplacement services for the shorter of 12 months from termination or the date Mr.  Tate accepts another position. For definitions of “Good Reason” and “Cause,” reference is made to the Separation Agreement between the Company and Jeffrey L. Tate, dated August 6, 2019, filed August 6, 2019 as Exhibit 10.12 to the Company’s Form 8-K. The definition of “Good Reason” includes the reduction of Mr. Tate’s base salary as in effect on his Start Date. On April 9, 2020, in conjunction with the Committee’s reduction of his base salary, Mr. Tate waived his right to terminate employment for Good Reason and receive termination benefits under the Separation Agreement by the Limited Waiver – Separation Agreement attached as Exhibit 10.2 to the Company’s Form 8-K filed April 14, 2020.

Except as noted below, the named executive officers will be eligible to receive an annual cash incentive under the 2020 KOIP (filed February 19, 2020 as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Form 8-K) in accordance with the 2021 KOIP Award Formula, adopted on February 23, 2021 and attached as Exhibit 10.2 to the Company’s Form 8-K filed February 24, 2021. Each executive’s cash award is to be calculated by multiplying his or her annual base salary at the end of the KOIP plan year by a percentage set by the Committee (the “Target Percentage”), then applying the award formula adopted by the


Committee for that year. The Award Formula in 2020 and 2021 established two performance criteria: (i) Return on Capital Employed (“ROCE”) (60% Relative Weight) and (ii) Cash Flow or Free Cash Flow for Mr. Henderson (40% Relative Weight). The Target Percentages for 2020 and 2021 for the principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and other named executive officers are shown in the following table.
