Pay Versus Performance

As per item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship between Compensation Actually Paid (CAP) as defined in Item 402(v) and performance. For further information concerning the Company’s variable pay-for-performance philosophy and how the Company aligns executive compensation with its performance, refer to the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis”.

Footnotes to Table 1:

1. Our principal executive officer (“PEO”) for fiscal years 2025 and 2024 was Douglas A. Kaye, who joined the Company on December 9, 2024. Our PEO for the fiscal years 2023, 2022 and 2021 was Eric G. Wintemute, who left that position on July 12, 2024. The dollar amounts reported in column (b) are the amounts of total compensation reported for the PEO for each corresponding year in the “Total” column of the Summary Compensation Table. Refer to “Executive Compensation – Executive Compensation Tables – Summary Compensation Table.”

2. The dollar amounts reported in column (e) represent the amount of “compensation actually paid” or “CAP” to the PEO, as computed in accordance with SEC rules. The dollar amounts do not reflect the actual amount of compensation

The equity award adjustments for each applicable year include the addition (or subtraction, as applicable) of the following:

3. (i) the year-end fair value of any equity awards granted in the applicable year that are outstanding and unvested as of the end of the year; (ii) the amount of change as of the end of the applicable year (from the end of the prior fiscal year) in fair value of any awards granted in prior years that are outstanding and unvested as of the end of the applicable year; (iii) for awards that are granted and vest in same applicable year, the fair value as of the vesting date; (iv) for awards granted in prior years that vest in the applicable year, the amount equal to the change as of the vesting date (from the end of the prior fiscal year) in fair value; (v) for awards granted in prior years that are determined to fail to meet the applicable vesting conditions during the applicable year, a deduction for the amount equal to the fair value at the end of the prior fiscal year; and (vi) the dollar value of any dividends or other earnings paid on stock or option awards in the applicable year prior to the vesting date that are not otherwise reflected in the fair value of such award or included in any other component of total compensation for the applicable year. The valuation assumptions used to calculate fair values did not materially differ from those disclosed at the time of grant.

4. The dollar amounts reported in column (e) represent the average amount of “compensation actually paid” (also, "CAP") to the NEOs as a group (excluding the PEO) as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K. The dollar amounts do not reflect the actual average amount of compensation earned by or paid to the NEOs as a group during the applicable year. In accordance with the requirements of Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the following adjustments were made to average total compensation for the NEOs as a group for each year to determine the compensation actually paid, using the same methodology described above in Note 2:

There are no amounts deducted or added in calculating total pension benefit adjustments, as the Company does not sponsor any privately-sponsored pension plan or defined benefit plan.

5. Cumulative TSR in column (f) is calculated by dividing the sum of the cumulative amount of dividends for the measurement period, assuming dividend reinvestment, and the difference between the Company’s share price at the end and the beginning of the measurement period by the Company’s share price at the beginning of the measurement period.

6. Column (g) 1 represents the TSR of the Global Agribusiness Index.

7. The dollar amounts reported in column (h) of Table 1 represent the amount of net income reflected in the Company’s audited financial statements for the applicable year.

8. The dollar amounts reported in column (i) of Table 1 represent the amount of net sales reflected in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the applicable year.
