Compensation Actually Paid vs. Total Shareholder Return | The graphs below illustrate the relationship between our TSR and the Peer Group TSR, as well as the relationship between CAP and our TSR for the CEO and other NEOs, for each of the years presented. For reference, SCT Total Compensation values for each year are also shown. As the graphs below illustrate, CAP amounts for our CEO and other NEOs are strongly aligned with Hershey’s TSR, as intended. |  |  |
Compensation Actually Paid vs. Net Income | The graph below reflects the relationship between the CEO and average other NEOs CAPs and GAAP Net Income for each of the years presented. GAAP Net Income is not used as a metric in our annual or long-term incentive plans. |  |  |
Compensation Actually Paid vs. Company Selected Measure | The graph below reflects the relationship between the CEO and average other NEOs CAPs and Net Sales for each of the years presented. Net Sales determined 50% of financial performance funding under our 2023 OHIP and is an important top-line measure that, when combined with the other measures in the OHIP and PSU awards, supports long-term shareholder value creation. |  |  |
Total Shareholder Return Vs Peer Group | The graphs below illustrate the relationship between our TSR and the Peer Group TSR, as well as the relationship between CAP and our TSR for the CEO and other NEOs, for each of the years presented. For reference, SCT Total Compensation values for each year are also shown.

Additional 402(v) Disclosure | Provided below is the Company’s “pay versus performance” disclosure as required pursuant to Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Exchange Act (referred to herein as Item 402(v)). As required by Item 402(v), we have included: •A list of the most important measures that our Compensation Committee used in 2023 to link a measure of pay calculated in accordance with Item 402(v) (referred to as “compensation actually paid,” or “CAP”) to Company performance; •A pay versus performance table that compares the total compensation of our NEOs as presented in the “Summary Compensation Table” (“SCT Total Compensation”) to CAP and that compares CAP to specified performance measures, including TSR, Peer Group TSR (as defined below), Net Income calculated in accordance with GAAP (“GAAP Net Income”) and our Company selected financial performance measure, Net Sales (as defined in the section titled “Compensation Discussion & Analysis”); and •Graphs that describe: ◦The relationship between our TSR and the TSR of the S&P 500 Packaged Foods Index (the “Peer Group TSR”); and ◦The relationships between CAP and our cumulative TSR, GAAP Net Income, and our Company selected financial performance measure, Net Sales. This disclosure has been prepared in accordance with Item 402(v) and does not necessarily reflect value actually realized by our executives or how our Committee evaluates compensation decisions in light of Company or individual performance. In particular, our Committee does not use CAP as a basis for making compensation decisions, nor does it use GAAP Net Income or Peer Group TSR for purposes of determining incentive compensation. Please see the section titled “Compensation Discussion & Analysis” for a discussion of our executive compensation program objectives and the ways in which we align our executives’ compensation with the Company’s performance. For purposes of the following disclosures, each of Salary, Bonus, Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation, Non-qualified Deferred Compensation Earnings and All Other Compensation is calculated in the same manner for purposes of CAP as it is calculated for purposes of SCT Total Compensation. There are, however, two primary differences between the calculation of CAP and SCT Total Compensation:
| SCT Total Compensation | CAP
Pension | Year-over-year change in the actuarial present value of pension benefits | Current year service cost and any prior year service cost (if a plan amendment occurred during the year)
Stock and Option Awards | Grant date fair value of stock and option awards granted during the year | Year-over-year change in the fair value of stock and option awards that are unvested as of the end of the year or that vested or were forfeited during the year(1)
____________________ (1) Includes any dividends paid on equity awards in the fiscal year prior to the vesting date that are not otherwise reflected in the fair value of such award. Net Sales was the most heavily weighted financial performance metric under our 2023 OHIP and is an important top-line measure that, when combined with the other measures in the OHIP and PSU awards, supports long-term shareholder value creation. Net Sales is the Company-selected financial performance measure included in the table and graphs that follow. Net Sales is a non-GAAP financial performance measure. For more information on how we define and use Net Sales in our executive compensation program, please see the section titled “Compensation Disclosure & Analysis” above. The dollar amounts reported represent CAP, as computed in accordance with Item 402(v). The fair value of option awards was determined using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The dollar amounts do not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned by or paid during the applicable year. For purposes of the above adjustments, the fair value of equity awards on the applicable date were determined in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, using valuation methodologies that are generally consistent with those used to determine the grant-date fair value for accounting purposes. T he table below contains ranges of assumptions used in the valuation of outstanding equity awards for the relevant fiscal year(s). For more information, please see the notes to our financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and the footnotes to the “2023 Summary Compensation Table” in this Proxy Statement
