The number of stock fund units represented by the balance of the participant's Company stock fund account may not exactly equal the number of stock fund units represented by a prior balance due to variance in the proportion of uninvested cash held in the reference fund used to determine unit values of the Company stock fund under the Plan.

3. Price reported in column 4 is a weighted average price. Shares sold at prices ranging from $291.0100 to $291.9601. The reporting person undertakes to provide to the Company, any shareowners of the Company and the staff of the SEC, upon request, full information regarding the number of shares sold at each separate price.

7. On December 4, 2018, the reporting person was granted a target number of performance shares, with the payout from 0 to 200% of target based on the Company's total shareowner return compared to the performance of companies in the S&P 500 Index over a three-year period.
