Except as noted below, the named executive officers are expected to be eligible to receive a cash bonus under the Company’s 2014 Key Officers Incentive Plan (filed March 25, 2014 as Appendix A to the Company’s Proxy Statement) (the “Plan”) in accordance with the 2016 award formula (which is expected to be adopted at the Committee’s March 2016 meeting and, consistent with past years, is expected to include performance targets related to the achievement of Return on Capital Employed (60% relative weight), Cash Flow for Corporate Participants and Free Cash Flow for Profit Center Participants (20% relative weight) and certain Individual Performance Goals (20% relative weight)). Each executive’s award is expected to be calculated by multiplying his annual salary at the end of the Plan year by his Target Percentage, then applying the award formula adopted by the Committee for that Plan year. We will disclose the 2016 award formula in a subsequent Form 8-K filing once it is adopted. The Target Percentages in 2014, 2015 and 2016 for Karl G. Glassman, and the Target Percentages in 2014 and 2015 for our principal financial officer and the other named executive officers are shown in the following table.

Joseph D. Downes, Jr., the Company’s former SVP, President – Industrial Materials retired from the Company on December 31, 2015. He served in a lesser position with the Company from April 6, 2015 through December 31, 2015, and, as a result, in 2015, he participated in the Company’s Key Management Incentive Compensation Plan, which is a cash bonus plan for non-executive officers. The award payout under this plan was determined in substantially the same manner as the 2014 Key Officers Incentive Plan and the 2015 award formula. The performance objectives were Return on Capital Employed (70% relative weight) and Free Cash Flow (30% relative weight) increased by as much as 5% for exceptional safety performance or decreased by as much as 20% for critical compliance failures.
