We recognize that equity compensation awards dilute shareholders’ equity, so we have carefulff ly managed our equity incentive compensation. This accomplishment was the result of our aggressive goal setting and relentless efforts to execute our proven fouff r-pillar strategy of specialization, globalization, commercial excellence and operational excellence. We set aggressive performance goals in 2016 under the 2016 Annual Incentive Program that focused our effoff rts on those facff tors that we believed were critical to our ongoing success, including revenue growth, earnings improvement, cash generation from working capital, effiff ciencies in our operations and the continued implementation of our overall four pillar strategy of globalization, specialization, commercial excellence and operational excellence.

To do so, three pieces of bottle walls were stacked for this measurement and referred to as first melt history. To do so the following procedure was carried out: • Preforms were produced by dosing 0.09% of Avient Fortis Amber-1 and 4% of our nylon- based oxygen scavenger Amosorb SolO2-2 • Preforms were ground down to a coarse granule size (~2mm) using a Retsch mill • The coarse ground preforms were crystallized in a vacuum oven at 160°C before drying the material in a PET drier at 160°C for approx. 4 hours • This material was then injection molded and blown into bottles with a) 50:50 dilution with Virgin PET with no color and b) 50:50 dilution with Virgin PET + Fortis Amber-1 at 0.045% Figure 2.

The screw rpm should be set so that the screw is fully recovered for the next shot, typically 2 - 3 seconds before the mold opens. If the screw recovers too fast, and the machine is equipped with a screw delay timer, set the delay time so that there is minimal delay after the screw is fully recovered and the mold opens.
