Footnotes

This Form is being filed to report the exercise of two 3M stock options for a total of 27,036 shares by means of a stock swap. A stock swap is a method of exercising a stock option in which the option holder attests to the ownership of enough shares of stock already owned by the option holder to cover the exercise price of the option being exercised. As a result of these stock swaps, the reporting person acquired ownership of an additional 4,289 shares of 3M common stock. As a result of this transaction, 3,193 shares were sold to pay withholding taxes to the respective government agencies.
