Additional 402(v) Disclosure The amounts shown for Compensation Actually Paid have been calculated in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K and do not reflect compensation actually earned, realized, or received by the Company’s NEOs. These amounts reflect the Summary Compensation Table Total with certain adjustments as described in footnote 3 below.Compensation Actually Paid reflects the exclusions and inclusions of certain amounts for the CEO and the Other NEOs as set forth below. Equity values are calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Amounts in row (A) reflect the amounts attributable to the Change in Pension Value reported in the Summary Compensation Table. Amounts in row (B) are based on the service cost for services rendered during the listed year. Amounts in row (C) are the totals from the Stock Awards and Option Awards columns set forth in the Summary Compensation Table. The Peer Group TSR set forth in this table utilizes the S&P 500 Household Products Index, which we also utilize in the stock performance graph required by Item 201(e) of Regulation S-K included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 2023 fiscal year. The comparison assumes $100 was invested for the period starting September 30, 2020, through the end of the listed year in the Company and in the S&P 500 Household Products Index, respectively. Historical stock performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock performance.

Non-GAAP Measure Description We determined Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA to be the most important financial performance measure used to link Company performance to Compensation Actually Paid to our CEO and Other NEOs in 2023. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial performance measure, and is calculated as net income (loss) before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization as well as certain other items such as the impact of the cumulative effect of changes in accounting, costs associated with debt refinancing and other non-recurring or non-cash items affecting net income (loss). A form of Adjusted EBITDA is used in agreements governing the Company’s outstanding indebtedness for debt covenant compliance purposes. Adjusted EBITDA as used in those agreements includes additional adjustments to the Adjusted EBITDA presented in this table which may decrease or increase Adjusted EBITDA for purposes of remaining consistent with the calculation of that measure as required by the Company's borrowing arrangements. See “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Non-GAAP Measures” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on November 22, 2023, for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) as reported under GAAP. This performance measure may not have been the most important financial performance measure for years 2022 and 2021 and we may determine a different financial performance measure to be the most important financial performance measure in future years.
