Incentive-plan design — the Compensation Discussion & Analysis
The Company's executive compensation philosophy is to provide pay for performance and align executive compensation with shareholder interests. The structure makes equity long-term incentive (LTI) compensation the most significant portion of total compensation for senior executives, using metrics aligned with long-term Company success, while targeting the market median for executive compensation packages.

Each company listed discloses HWM in its own benchmarking peer group, as disclosed in each company's most recent proxy statement within the last two proxy seasons. Two companies are therefore absent by design: one that named HWM in an earlier year and no longer does, and one whose own most recent disclosure is older than the last two seasons.
