SEALED AIR CORPORATION

 

POLICY ON RECOUPMENT OF INCENTIVE COMPENSATION

FROM EXECUTIVES IN THE EVENT OF CERTAIN RESTATEMENTS

As amended for performance periods beginning on or after January 1, 2010

 

The Organization and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has approved the policy that the Company will, to the extent permitted by governing law, require reimbursement to the Company of all or a portion of any annual incentive compensation (whether payable in cash or by an award under the 2005 Contingent Stock Plan) and any Performance Share Units awards under the 2005 Contingent Stock Plan awarded to any executive officer of the Company or to the leader of any business unit or function of the Company for performance periods beginning on or after January 1, 2010, where:

 

(a)          the payment or award was predicated upon the achievement of certain financial results that were subsequently the subject of a restatement due to error or misconduct (regardless of the executive officer’s or leader’s responsibility for such error or misconduct), and

 

(b)         either no payment or award, or a lower payment or award, would have been made to the officer or leader based upon the restated results.

 

In each case, upon a determination to seek recovery by the Board of Directors, the Company will, to the extent practicable, seek to recover the amount by which the officer’s or leader’s annual incentive compensation and/or Performance Share Units award for the relevant period exceeded the lower amount that would have been paid or awarded (or the entire amount, if nothing would have been paid or awarded).  This may include the cancellation of all or a portion of unvested awards or unpaid awards (or a delay in payment of any such awards while financial results are under review by the Company).

 

In addition, any person who is subject to forfeiture of compensation or profits from the sale of the Company’s securities under Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 shall reimburse the Company the amount of such compensation and profits.

 

In addition to these reimbursements, the Company may take any other actions that it deems appropriate to remedy any fraud or misconduct related to the restatement based on a consideration of the relevant facts and circumstances.  These remedies would be in addition to any actions imposed by law enforcement agencies, regulators, or other authorities.
