    The Nominating, Corporate and Governance Committee (NC&G) has discussed the inclusion of an ESG metric as part of STI and/or LTI awards. At this early stage of our sustainability work, the N&CG Committee believes it is premature to include a formal, ESG quantitative goal within the corporate performance objectives.
