Margaret M.V. Preston is a Managing Director and Market Executive with US Trust, Bank of America Private Wealth Management an affiliate of Bank of America Corporation and a commercial relationship exists between Bank of America Corporation and McCormick. However, the Board has determined that the commercial relationship is not material for the following reasons: (1) McCormick has no commercial relationship with Bank of America Private Wealth Management; (2) the payments made by McCormick to Bank of America Corporation and its affiliates are substantially less than 2% of the consolidated gross revenues of Bank of America Corporation; (3) Ms. Preston is not an officer of Bank of America Corporation and does not participate in the negotiation of the commercial transactions on behalf of Bank of America Corporation; and (4) the services provided by Bank of America Corporation to McCormick are readily available from other banking institutions. For these reasons, the Board has concluded that Mr. Bilbrey and Ms. Preston have no direct or indirect material relationship with McCormick that would preclude a determination of independence.
