Green Cycles Distribution
—   Mode Shifting: Find new opportunities to shift inbound and outbound delivery of
     products to modes that have less impact on the environment

—   Load Efficiency: Reduce the number of shipped containers by consolidating
     operations and maximizing the space utilization per container to reduce the total
     number of miles travelled by our products, which reduces the impact on the
     environment.

—   Packaging Improvements: Introduce smaller, lighter and recycled logistics
     packaging that maintains in-transit safety of our products while minimizing our
     impact on the environment.

—   Encourage SmartWay Program Participation: Communicate a preference in working
     with SmartWay Partner carriers and evaluate carrier performance using the
     SmartWay tool.
