(3)Intangible asset impairment charge in the AFP segment for customer relationships. (4)Severance charges in first quarter 2020 of $1 million in the Chemical Intermediates ("CI") segment and site closure costs in first quarter 2021 of $4 million and $1 million in the CI and AFP segments, respectively, resulting from the previously reported plan to discontinue production of certain products at the Singapore manufacturing site.
