The Environment Remedition GOAL Our gol is to effectively ddress environmentlly impcted property in complince with pplicble regultory requirements, nd ultimtely return these properties to productive use. We pursue this outcome by seeking to work coopertively with governmentl gencies, conservtion groups, citizen groups, nd other stkeholders to ddress the environmentl impcts t our remedition sites in mnner tht protects humn helth nd the environment, is cost-effective, nd lessens further environmentl impct. PERFORMANCE In 2013, we were involved in more thn 175 environmentl remedition projects with n pproximte nnul remedition budget of $40 million. From 2004 to 2013, we successfully completed ctive remedition t 87 sites nd removed them from the compny s portfolio of impcted properties by chieving regultion-bsed remedition objectives. During the sme time period, we lso ccomplished life-cycle cost reductions totling $57 million through vrious ctivities, including innovtive engineering pproches to investigtion methodologies nd improvements in the ppliction of remedil technologies. Opportunities for Improvement The process of site remedition culmintes in the restortion nd return of impcted property to productive use. From erly investigtive phses, through the ppliction of technicl remedies, to the finl phse involving long-term site monitoring, remedition consumes nd impcts nturl resources, creting its own environmentl footprint. The verge remedition site cn tke decdes to restore, which results in finncil nd environmentl costs. We recognize tht ech phse of the remedition process presents opportunities for improvement, nd chllenges persist due to the unique nd dynmic nture of ech site. Innovtive solutions nd technologies re providing techniques tht promise restortion nd minimiztion of environmentl impcts. We routinely monitor nd test vilble technologies tht my be pplicble to specific field conditions to evlute their effectiveness in ccelerting site recovery time. 23

OUR OPERATIONS IN FOCUS Environmentl Sustinbility greeng With the inception of our environmentl sustinbility progrm greeng, in 2009, we committed to better understnd nd define wht sustinbility mens to us, our customers, our shreholders nd our employees. Environmentl sustinbility is n objective tht is both supportive of, nd supported by, our core vlues: qulity, customer stisfction, ledership, integrity, people, nd suppliers. Shring the principles of Six Sigm mnufcturing, integrtion of environmentl sustinbility principles supports efficiency throughout the orgniztion nd drives performnce. GOAL The greeng progrm estblishes specific gols for reducing greenhouse gses (GHGs), solid wste genertion, nd wter use. By yer-end 2014, we re committed to: Reduce our combined Scope 1 nd 2 GHG intensity (metric tonnes of crbon dioxide equivlent [MTCO2e], normlized to sles) by 25 percent reltive to the 2008 bse yer. Implement t lest 75 percent of our solid wste reduction nd wter conservtion best mngement prctices t ll lrge owned nd lesed buildings (100,000 squre feet nd lrger). Our Strtegy To successfully integrte environmentl sustinbility into our orgniztionl culture, we developed our strtegy to drive performnce from the inside out. We hve estblished environmentl sustinbility metrics (performnce to gol) s mesure of reducing GHGs nd implementing solid wste nd wter conservtion best mngement prctices. These environmentl sustinbility metrics re tied to executive compenstion metrics, demonstrting strong support from our Bord of Directors nd reinforcing the vlue of ledership nd enggement throughout the orgniztion. This commitment is criticl element of our success. With the support of our executive ledership, our greeng progrm drives performnce through blnced strtegic pln tht prioritizes identifying opportunities for efficiency nd improvement in our own opertions. In ddition to energy nd resource conservtion, we evlute nd implement opportunities driven by technologicl dvncements nd renewble nd lterntive energy mngement. We re firm in our commitment to mintin blnced, vlue-driven strtegy for performnce. Energy Efficiency Energy use reduction is fundmentl method through which we chieve GHG emissions reductions. Our results re driven by reducing fuel use (e.g., gsoline, diesel, nturl gs) in our opertions through inititives led by our fcilities, rel estte nd informtion technology orgniztions, nd our engineering nd mnufcturing opertions. Resource Reduction We constntly evlute opportunities to improve efficiency nd reduce emissions ssocited with the use of process gses nd other inputs. Replcing process gses nd trditionl refrigernts with newer, lower globl wrming potentil gses supports process continuity nd reduced GHG emissions. Green Power We support the dvncement of renewble electricity infrstructure, through use of renewble energy t our sites s well s through procurement of renewble energy certifictes (RECs) generted from renewble energy systems integrted into the ntionl infrstructure. We continue to evlute options for green power sources t our owned sites nd mintin our multi-yer purchsing commitment Alterntive nd Renewble Energy In support of innovtive, energy-efficient technology, we constntly evlute opportunities to implement lterntive nd renewble energy systems to improve energy efficiency t our fcilities.

OUR OPERATIONS IN FOCUS greeng 2.0: Leverging Innovtion nd Environmentl Sustinbility Hving chieved our inugurl GHG reduction gol two yers hed of pln, we initited the plnning process for our greeng 2.0 GHG reduction gol in 2013. Our gol-setting strtegy represents blnce of expecttions to perform, our known bility to perform, nd innovtion. This strtegy informed our second GHG-reduction gol: By 2020, we re committed to reducing bsolute GHG emissions 30 percent reltive to 2010 GHG emissions levels. We trnsitioned to n bsolute GHG emissions-reduction gol to ensure our efforts directly support climte chnge mitigtion. Mesuring GHG emission reductions in bsolute terms lso supports the gols of our customers, the U.S. federl government nd scientific findings from expert orgniztions such s the Interntionl Pnel on Climte Chnge. We estblished 2010 to 2020 s our period of performnce for two primry resons: The 2010 bse yer ligns with our first yer of GHG inventory dt for which we received Resonble Assurnce through third-prty verifiction. The 2020 gol yer is consistent with our customers GHG reduction gol timelines nd provides n opportunity to ddress long-rnge opportunities. Our decision to seek to reduce emissions by 30 percent over this period of performnce is driven by combintion of externl stkeholder expecttions, innovtion opportunities, nd internl opportunity ssessments. Building on the successes of our first GHGreduction gol, our strtegic emphses for this next gol period will prioritize energy use reduction, recpture nd substitution of high GHG-emitting gses, nd process optimiztion to drive further energy reductions. This is chllenging environmentl performnce gol nd builds on our 15.8 percent bsolute reduction performnce from 2010-2012. We re committed to leverge our culture of innovtion to chieve success for the GHG-reduction trget s well s the next genertion of solid wste nd wter conservtion gols.
