Segment Information Forward-Looking Statements This DATA BOOK contains forward-looking statements which may be identified by their use of Selected Additional Data words like “plans,” “expects,” “will,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “intends,” “estimates” or other words of similar meaning. Although they reflect our current expectations, these statements are not Inside Back Cover guarantees of future performance, but involve a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Some of which include: fluctuations in energy and raw material prices; failure to develop and market Board of Directors and new products and optimally manage product life cycles; global economic and capital markets conditions; litigation and environmental matters; changes in laws and regulations or political DuPont Leadership conditions; business or supply disruptions; ability to protect and enforce the company’s intellectual property rights; successful integration of acquired business and separation of underperforming Individual Shareholder Relations: or non-strategic assets; and successful completion of the proposed spinoff of the Performance Chemicals segment including ability to fully realize the expected benefits of the proposed spinoff.

Main Office Number: Use of Non-GAAP Measures (302) 774-4994 As a supplement to DuPont financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this DATA BOOK presents non-GAAP measures. Consolidated Internet: www.dupont.com company and segment results are shown on an operating earnings basis, which excludes significant items and non-operating pension and other postretirement employee benefit costs. Non-GAAP measures include but are not limited to operating earnings and operating earnings per share; operating earnings before interest, taxes, and noncontrolling interests (EBIT), as defined by the company; operating earnings before interest, taxes, noncontrolling interests, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA); and free cash flow. Non-GAAP measures are not a substitute for GAAP results. The company uses non-GAAP measures to evaluate and manage the company’s operations. The company believes that a discussion of operating results provides a useful analysis of ongoing operations. The determination of significant items may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. This data should be read in conjunction with previously published company reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K. These reports, along with reconciliations on non-GAAP measures to GAAP are available on the Investor Center of www.dupont.com.

The materials we measure have relatively low thermal conductivity. We present a method for measuring the heat transfer coefficient of flat cabling and show, using an example, that the thermal conductivity of a flex cable is reasonably well predicted by composing the thermal conductivities of its constituent material layers. Room temperature physical and mechanical data is given for the materials studied, as well as an overview of relevant materials science and manufacturing details. Materials include Timet Ti 15-3 and Ti 21S, Materion alloy vit105 (LM105) in amorphous state, ATI Metals Nb-47Ti, Johnson Matthey nitinol (NiTi), Mersen graphite grade 2020, DuPont Pyralux coverlay and Vespel SCP-5050, and Fralock Cirlex polyimide sheets. All data is in the temperature range 0:05 to 2 K, and up to 5 K for SCP-5050.

The author also thanks Stephen Bainbridge, Lawrence Hamermesh, David Katz, Marty Lipton, Andy Lubin, Sarah Lubin, and the two anonymous referees for excellent feedback and incisive comments on the draft. Electronic copy available at: https://ssrn.com/abstract=2906875 One of the most tired debates in American corporate law has been about the ends of corporate governance. Must, within the limits of their legal discretion, boards of directors act for the best interests of stockholders? Or may they exercise their discretion to advance, as an end in itself, the best interests of other corporate constituencies, such as the corporation’s employees, home communities, and consumers? The reason this debate is a bit tired is because it is not about whether corporate statutes should be amended to give equal credence to other constituencies than stockholders, it is about arguing that corporate laws that give only rights to stockholders somehow implicitly empower directors to regard other constituencies as equal ends in governance. In other words, the debate involves large doses of wish fulfillment, with advocates for other constituencies arguing that the law already is what they in fact think it ought to be.
