In all cases, a minimum threshold (below which participants do not receive payments), a target amount and a maximum amount was set by the Board for each goal. </span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Following the end of the fiscal year, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Board will approve the payouts under the SMICP. Credit is given proportionately for performance falling between the threshold and maximum levels, but is not given for performance that is not at least at the threshold level, or for that portion of performance that exceeds the maximum level.  Participants must be employed when the payments are made, except in the case of death, disability or retirement, to be eligible for a payment under the program.  The SMICP has a &#8220;clawback&#8221; provision that provides for recovery of any payment made to a participant who is an executive officer if the payment is based on a materially inaccurate
