OUR STRATEGY

Our strategy is to deliver profitable growth by focusing on our core brands in two divisions within North America. This strategy is based on four pillars:

FISCAL 2020 PERFORMANCE

Fiscal 2020 illustrated the importance of a focused strategic plan and a dynamic team as we faced the unprecedented challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. The year can be viewed in two clear and separate halves. The first half of our fiscal 2020 was a period of steady execution against our strategic roadmap. We began the year focused on strengthening our brand powerhouse, with two distinct divisions concentrated in North America: Meals & Beverages and Snacks; each home to strong portfolios of products. We kicked off our “Win in Soup” plans and we completed our planned divestitures of our Campbell International and European chips businesses, using the proceeds to reduce our debt while implementing a new operating model to optimize growth and profitability. The progress we were making with our strategic plan during the first half of the year led to our overall results tracking ahead of our performance targets.

The groundwork we established in the first half of fiscal 2020 served as a springboard for the business into the second half of the year, when progress against our strategy accelerated further as a result of the pandemic. This translated into a year well above what we had originally planned.

We experienced broad-based demand across our portfolio as consumers sheltered in place and filled their pantries with the brands they recognize and trust. We also saw elevated repeat purchase rates and new buyers of our products, especially in soup.

Our performance this year was enabled by the extraordinary work of our teams who remained agile and resilient in a challenging operating environment. We rallied around a simplified mission and executed extremely well. Our Meals & Beverages supply chain pivoted from supporting flat to declining businesses to showing resiliency in responding to a significant surge in increased orders at the outset of the pandemic. The company’s leadership developed a plan to optimize our supply chain network to meet unprecedented demand from our customers while establishing sanitation and safety protocols to ensure our plants continued to operate. As the year went on and we continued to experience elevated demand for our products, we continued to invest in our brands. We also made significant progress in advancing our Snacks integration plans and our cost savings program, both of which remain on track.

On August 30, 2018,September 3, 2020, we announced a number of significant actions coming out of our Board-led strategic review to improve performance and drive shareholder value. These actionsfiscal 2020 financial results, which included:

This strategic review helped us to establish a clear set of objectives for fiscal 2019.

We have made significant progress against the new strategy, including:

In addition, our total shareholder return (“TSR”) performance during fiscal 2020 was 24.6%.

We encourage you to review our Annual Report to Shareholders that will accompany this Proxy Statement for additional information on our fiscal 20192020 performance and our financial results.

FISCAL 2020 COMMUNITY & SUSTAINABILITY WINS

In fiscal 2020, we focused on building healthy communities through our employee engagement and the Campbell Soup Foundation, with an emphasis on COVID-19 relief and recovery in an effort to help our Campbell hometowns rebound from the social and economic impacts of the pandemic. We recognized that community food banks and hunger programs would struggle with COVID-19 and dedicated manufacturing and supply specifically for this need. We channeled our support to the 33 communities where we have operations. As of September 1, 2020, we have contributed over $6 million in food and financial support across North America.

We also realized some important sustainability wins. First, we launched four new sustainable packaging commitments focused on packaging recyclability, recycled content, consumer education and expanding access to recycling infrastructure. We advanced our farmer engagement work in our tomato, wheat and potato supply chains, and reached our wheat fertilizer optimization goal one year ahead of schedule. Finally, we reduced the environmental footprint of our operations and advanced traceability of priority raw materials along our supply chain. As we build our new environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) strategy, we will continue to advance these efforts, and others, and report on our progress in our annual Corporate Responsibility Report at www.campbellcsr.com. See pages 27 and 28 for more information about our ESG activities.

In accordance with SEC rules, instead of mailing a paper copy of our proxy materials to all of our shareholders, we have again decided to provide access to our proxy materials to many shareholders via the Internet.

In exercising its fiduciary duties, the Board represents and acts on behalf of the Company’s shareholders and is committed to strong corporate governance, as reflected through its policies and practices. The Board is deeply involved in the Company’s strategic planning process, leadership development, succession planning, and oversight of risk management.

The Campbell By-Laws give the Board the authority to determine the number of directors. The Board is currently comprised of 1412 directors, 12all of whom have been nominated by the Board for election. Randall W. Larrimore has reached age 72 and, pursuant to our Corporate Governance Standards, is not being nominated for re-election and will retire from the Board as of the 2019 Annual Meeting. Nick Shreiber has chosen not to stand for re-election and his current term will end as of the 2019 Annual Meeting. Mr. Shreiber’s decision to not stand for re-election is not due to a disagreement with Campbell relating to our operations, policies or practices.

Directors are to be elected to hold office until the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders and until their successors are elected and shall have qualified, or until their earlier resignation, retirement or removal. Directors are elected by a majority of the votes cast; abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast on this proposal.

DIRECTOR QUALIFICATIONS AND BOARD COMPOSITION

The Governance Committee is responsible for investigating, reviewing and evaluating the qualifications of candidates for membership on the Board and for assessing the contributions and performance of directors eligible for re-election. It is also responsible for recommending director nominees for approval by the Board and nomination for election by shareholders.

Campbell is a manufacturer and marketer of high-quality, branded food and beverage products. A company of our size must have strong governance, as well as leaders who understand our diverse consumers and business needs. The Governance Committee strives to maintain an engaged, independent Board with broad and diverse experience and judgment that is committed to representing the long-term interests of our shareholders. The Governance Committee works with the Board to determine the composition of the Board as a whole and believes that the current composition of the Board reflects an appropriate mix of tenure, skill sets, experience, and qualifications that are relevant to the business and governance of the Company.

The Governance Committee believes that all directors should be persons of the highest personal and professional ethics, integrity and values who abide by exemplary standards of business and professional conduct and demonstrate commitment to representing the long-term interests of the Company’s shareholders. Directors should bring an inquisitive and objective perspective, practical wisdom and mature judgment to the Board and be committed to devoting the time and attention necessary to fulfill their duties and responsibilities. In furtherance of these objectives, the Governance Committee considers a wide range of factors when nominating candidates for election to the Board, including:

DIRECTOR NOMINEES

The Board has nominated the 12 individuals appearing below for election by shareholders at the 20192020 Annual Meeting. All director nominees listed in this proxy statement other than John P. Bilbrey, Mark A. Clouse, Sarah Hofstetter and Kurt T. Schmidt, were also nominated by the Board and elected by the shareholders at the 20182019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Ms. Hofstetter and Mr. Schmidt were elected by the directors to the Board on November 29, 2018. Ms. Hofstetter and Mr. Schmidt were identified by Third Point LLC (“Third Point”) and elected to the Board pursuant to the Support Agreement, dated as of November 26, 2018, by and among the Company, Third Point LLC and certain of its affiliates as named therein, and The Revocable Trust of George Strawbridge, Jr., dated January 21, 1991 (the “Support Agreement”). Mr. Clouse was elected by the directors to the Board on December 18, 2018 in connection with his appointment as CEO of the Company. Mr. Bilbrey was elected by the directors to the Board on March 22, 2019, after the Board consulted with Third Point and solicited its views and opinions with respect to Mr. Bilbrey. Mr. Bilbrey was identified and presented to the Governance Committee for consideration by a third-party search firm. See page 23 for more information on the director nomination process.

Each year, prior to recommending a slate of directors to the Board for nomination, the Governance Committee conducts an assessment of incumbent directors to review their qualifications and contributions to the Board. In fiscal 2019, the director review process was strengthened by having an independent third-party corporate governance consulting firm assist in individual director evaluations. After reviewing the qualifications and performance of each director, the Governance Committee recommended each of the incumbent directors identified on pages 1618 through 2123 as a nominee for election at the 20192020 Annual Meeting.

As described in our Corporate Governance Standards, it is the policy of the Board that no person may stand for election to the Board after reaching age 72. However, upon recommendation of the Governance Committee, the Board may waive this policy if it determines that because of the individual’s unique capabilities and/or due to special circumstances, such re-nomination is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. Consistent with last year,2 years, the Governance Committee determined that although he is age 73,74, Mr. Dorrance’s status as a descendent of the Company’s founder and a significant shareholder give him unique capabilities as a director. As a result, the Governance Committee recommended to the Board that it waive the retirement age policy to permit Mr. Dorrance to stand for re-election at the 20192020 Annual Meeting. The Board concurred with the Governance Committee’s recommendation, and all members of the Board approved Mr. Dorrance’s re-nomination. Mr. Dorrance and Ms. Malone recused themselves from all Committee and Board discussions of the waiver and abstained from both votes.

All of the nominees are independent directors, except Mr. Clouse. If a nominee becomes unable or unwilling to serve, proxies will be voted for the election of such person as shall be designated by the Board to replace such nominee, or, in lieu thereof, the Board may reduce its size. All nominees have consented to serve on the Board if elected. The Board knows of no reason why any nominee would be unable or unwilling to serve. Except as otherwise specified on your proxy card, proxies will be voted for election of the nominees named on pages 1618 through 21.23.

Biographical information and Committee memberships as of the date of this proxy statement, including the specific experience, qualifications and skills of each of the director nominees is included below.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE POLICIES AND PRACTICES

The Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing our business, and the competence and integrity of our management, to serve the long-term interests of our shareholders. The Board believes that sound corporate governance is essential to effective fulfillment of its oversight responsibilities. The Board has adopted Corporate Governance Standards, which are reviewed at least annually and updated as needed. The Corporate Governance Standards provide a framework for effective corporategovernancecorporate governance of the Company. You can find a copy of our Corporate Governance Standards, along with the charters of the four standing Board committees, our Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws, and our Policy Concerning Transactions with Related Persons, in the corporate governance section of our website atwww.campbellsoupcompany.comwww.campbellsoupcompany.com. . Some highlights of our corporate governance include:

■
■Eleven (11) out of twelve (12) director nominees are independent
■	Diverse Board in terms of gender, ethnicity, tenure, and specific skills and qualifications
■	Annual election of directors
■	Majority voting standard in uncontested elections with resignation policy
■	Independent Board Chair
■	Independent directors regularly meet in executive session
■	Audit, Compensation and Organization, Finance and Corporate Development and Governance Committees composed entirely of independent directors
■	“Overboarding” limits
■Diverse Board in terms of gender, ethnicity, tenure, and specific skills and qualifications ■	Robust stock ownership guidelines for directors and executive officers
■	Clawback policy for incentive compensation
■	Shareholder ability to act by written consent and call a special meeting
■	Annual shareholder ratification of independent auditors
■	Board orientation and director education program
■	Annual Board and committee self-evaluations, and individual director evaluations
■	Policy against hedging applicable to all directors and officers
■	Policy against pledging (subject to grandfathering) applicable to all directors and executive officers
■	No shareholder rights plan or “poison pill”

BOARD LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE

We have a long-standing tradition of separating the roles of Board Chair and Chief Executive Officer. In fiscal 2019, when the Board hired Mr. Clouse to be our President and Chief Executive Officer, it considered whether to maintain the separation between the roles of Board Chair and Chief Executive Officer and it concluded that this leadership structure continues to be the most appropriate oneforone for the Company. The principal responsibility of the Chief Executive Officer is to manage the business. The principal responsibilities of the Board Chair are to manage the operations of the Board of Directors and its committees and provide counsel to the Chief Executive Officer on behalf of the Board.

DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

A statement of standards that the Board has adopted to assist it in evaluating the independence of the Campbell Board appears in the Corporate Governance Standards, which can be found in the corporate governance section of our website atwww.campbellsoupcompany.com. The Standards for the Determination of Director Independence (the “Independence Standards”) describe various types of relationships that could potentially exist between a director and Campbell, and define the thresholds at which such relationships would be deemed material under the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) Corporate Governance Standards. The Board will deem a director to be independent if (i) no relationship exists that would disqualify the director under the guidelines set forth in the Independence Standards, and (ii) the Board has determined, based on all relevant facts and circumstances, that any other relationship between the director and Campbell, not covered by the Independence Standards, is not material. In any case in which the Board makes the latter determination, the relationship will be disclosed in the proxy statement, along with the basis for the Board’s conclusion that it is not material.

The Board has affirmatively determined that each director and director nominee, other than Mr. Clouse, is independent under the NYSE Corporate Governance Standards and theIndependence Standards, including Mr. McLoughlin who served as our Interim President and Chief Executive Officer from May 18, 2018 until January 22, 2019. The Board specifically noted that Mr. McLoughlin’s service as Interim President and Chief Executive Officer was temporary in nature, lasting for less than one year, and the Board did not identify any other relationships that would disqualify Mr. McLoughlin under the guidelines set forth in the Independence Standards or any other material relationship between the Company and Mr. McLoughlin.Standards.

Each member of the Audit, Compensation and Organization, Finance and Corporate Development, and Governance Committees is an independent director pursuant to all applicable NYSE Corporate Governance Standards and the Independence Standards. In addition, each member of the Audit Committee also meets the additional independence standards for audit committee members established by the SEC, and each member of the Compensation and Organization Committee also qualifies as a “Non-Employee Director” as defined in Rule 16b-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), and as an “outside director” for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“IRC”).

MAJORITY VOTING

We have a majority vote standard in uncontested director elections. Under our By-Laws, in an uncontested election, each director shall be elected by an affirmative majority of the votes cast to hold office until the next annual meeting and until his or her successor is elected and has qualified. In contested elections (those where the number of nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected), a plurality vote standard shall apply. Shareholders may vote “for” or “against” each nominee, or they may “abstain” from voting on a nominee; however, abstentions will have no effect in determining whether the required majority vote has been obtained.

In the event an incumbent director fails to receive an affirmative majority of the votes cast in an uncontested election, the Corporate Governance Standards provide that the director shall tender his or her resignation. The Governance Committee and the Board will then consider and take appropriate action on such offer of resignation in accordance with the Corporate Governance Standards. The resignation policy set forth in the Corporate Governance Standards does not apply to contested elections.

PROCESS FOR NOMINATION AND EVALUATION OF DIRECTOR CANDIDATES

The Governance Committee is responsible for evaluating the qualifications of director candidates and recommending director nominees for approval by the Board and nomination for election at the annual meeting of shareholders.

Nomination of Incumbent Directors.Our Corporate Governance Standards require the Governance Committee to assess the performance of each director eligible for election at the annual meeting. The Governance Committee conducts its assessment annually in advance of its recommendation of a slate of director nominees for approval by the Board. In fiscal 2019,2020, each incumbent director standing for re-election was evaluated in light of the criteria in the Corporate Governance Standards and the factors described on pages 1315 and 1416 with respect to the qualification of directors and the composition of the Board. In addition, the Governance Committee solicited an assessment of each director from the Board Chair and the Chief Executive Officer.

Evaluation of New Nominees.When identifying potential director candidates — whether to replace a director who has retired or resigned or to expand the Board to gain additional capabilities — the Governance Committee determines the skills, experience and other characteristics that a potential nominee should possess in light of the composition and needs of the Board and its committees. The Governance Committee also considers whether or not the nominee would be considered independent under the NYSE Corporate Governance Standards and the Independence Standards.

All candidates considered by the Governance Committee for recommendation to the Board as director nominees are evaluated in light of the criteria in the Corporate Governance Standards and the factors and objectives described on pages 1315 and 14.16. The Governance Committee will also consider the assessment of any search firm it has retained and the background information such firm provides on any person it recommends for consideration. The Board Chair, the Chair of the Governance Committee and the Chief Executive Officer customarily interview leading candidates. Other directors may also interview these candidates.

During fiscal 2019, the Governance Committee engaged a search firm to provide and to help vet candidates for vacant Board seats, as well as to develop an ongoing list of potential candidates.

Although not required to do so, the Committee may consider candidates proposed by our directors or our management and may also retain an outside firm to help identify and evaluate potential nominees. The Committee will also consider nominations from shareholders. The nominee evaluation process is the same whether the nomination comes from a Board member, management, a search firm or a shareholder. If the Committee recommends a candidate to the Board, the Board may – as with any nominee – either accept or reject the recommendation.

Shareholder Recommendations.Shareholders who wish to recommend candidates for nomination for election to the Board may do so by writing to the Corporate Secretary of Campbell Soup Company at 1 Campbell Place, Camden, New Jersey 08103. The recommendation must include the following information:

1.	The candidate’s name and business address;
2.	A resume or curriculum vitae, which describes the candidate’s background and demonstrates that he or she meets the qualifications set forth on pages 1315 and 14;
	16;
3.	A letter from the candidate stating that he or she is willing to serve on the Board if elected, and identifying any legal or regulatory proceedings in which he or she has been involved during the last ten years; and
4.	A statement from the shareholder recommending the candidate, indicating that he or she is the registered owner of Campbell shares, or a written statement from the “record holder” of Campbell shares indicating that the shareholder is the beneficial owner of such shares.

Shareholders who wish to propose a director nominee at an annual meeting must follow the advance notice procedures contained in our By-Laws, which include notifying the Corporate Secretary at least 60 but not more than 90 days before the first anniversary of the prior year’s annual meeting. Based on this year’s annual meeting date of November 20, 2019,18, 2020, a notice will be considered timely for the 20202021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders if our Corporate Secretary receives it no earlier than August 22, 2020,20, 2021, and no later than September 21, 2020.19, 2021. Please see “Submission of Shareholder Proposals for 20202021 Annual Meeting” on page 7274 for additional information.

EVALUATIONS OF BOARD PERFORMANCE

The Governance Committee leads annual evaluations of Board, committee and committeeindividual director performance. As a best practice, periodically, the Governance Committee engages a third-party corporate governance consulting firm to carry out the annual evaluations. The evaluation process is designed to facilitate ongoing, systematic examination of the Board’s effectiveness and accountability, and to identify opportunities for improving its operations and procedures.

In fiscal 2019,2020, the Governance Committee engaged an independent third-party corporate governance consulting firm to facilitateconducted an assessment of the individual directors. IndividualdirectorOn an annual basis, individual director feedback wasis discussed in detail with each director.director, as appropriate. Also in fiscal 2019,2020, the Board conducted a separate self-evaluation, and each of its standing committeecommittees conducted a separate evaluation of its own performance and of the adequacy of its charter, and reported on the results of its evaluation to the Board.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS

Under our written Policy Concerning Transactions with Related Persons (the “Related Persons Policy”), the Governance Committee is required to review and, in appropriate circumstances, approve or ratify any transaction in which Campbell was or is to be a participant, the amount involved exceeded or is expected to exceed $120,000 and any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, as well as any material amendment to or modification of such a transaction, unless the transaction falls into one of the categories deemed to have been approved in advance.

In determining whether to approve or ratify a transaction, the Governance Committee is directed to consider, among other factors it may deem appropriate, whether the transaction was or will be on terms no less favorable than those generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances. No director may participate in the discussionordiscussion or approval of a transaction in which he or she, or a member of his or her immediate family, has a direct or indirect interest. The Chair of the Governance Committee (or, if a transaction involves the Governance Committee Chair, the Board Chair) may approve or ratify a related person transaction in which the aggregate amount involved is less than $1 million. Any transaction approved or ratified by the Governance Committee Chair or the Board Chair is to be reported to the Governance Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.

There were no transactions during the period from July 30, 201829, 2019 through the date of this proxy statement, and none are currently proposed, in which Campbell was or is to be a participant, the amount involved exceeded or is expected to exceed $120,000, and any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

BOARD OVERSIGHT OF ENTERPRISE RISK

Enterprise risk management (“ERM”) is an integral part of our business processes. Senior management is primarily responsible for establishing policies and procedures designed to identify, assess and manage the Company’s significant risks. We have an ERM steering committee, comprised of the members of our Campbell Leadership Team and supported by other executives with subject-matter expertise, that provides oversight of enterprise risks and our processes to identify, measure, monitor and manage these risks.

The Board oversees the ERM process, including reviews of the most significant risks the Company faces and the manner in which our executives manage these risks. In accordancewithaccordance with NYSE Corporate Governance Standards, the Audit Committee charter assigns to that committee the responsibility to review our policies and procedures with respect to risk assessment and risk management. At the Audit Committee’s recommendation, the Board adopted a framework pursuant to which it delegated oversight for certain categories of enterprise risks to each of its standing committees, as shown below. Each committee provides periodic reports to the Board regarding its oversight of these enterprise risks. This structure enables the Board and its Committees to coordinate the risk oversight role. We believe that the separation of the Board Chair and CEO roles further supports the Board’s risk oversight role.

DIRECTOR ORIENTATION AND CONTINUING EDUCATION

All new directors participate in the Company’s director orientation program.

The orientation allows new directors to become familiar with the Company’s business and strategic plans; significant financial matters; core values, including ethics, compliance programs and corporate governance practices; and other key policies and practices.

We maintain a formal program of continuing education for directors. The Governance Committee is responsible for the administration of the program, which expects each Director to complete a total of 16 hours of director continuing education over the course of two years. Directors may meet this expectation through a combination of Company-sponsored courses or events, in-person or online director education programs sponsored by outside parties, online training courses offered as part of our compliance training program for employees, and certain other educational experiences as may be approved by the Governance Committee from time to time.

The Governance Committee oversees the annual Board, committee and individual director evaluation processes and administers the director education program. The Committee also reviews any transaction with a related person in accordance with the Board’s policy concerning such transactions, as further described on page 24.26. In fiscal 2020, the Board delegated responsibility to the Governance Committee to oversee ESG matters.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

We strive to recruit and retain highly qualified non-employee directors who will best represent our shareholders’ interests. Each year, the Governance Committee reviews the amount and design of the compensation program for non-employee directors to ensure that the compensation we offer supports our objectives and is consistent with non-employee director compensation within our Compensation Peer Group.

In fiscal 2019,2020, the Governance Committee benchmarked our non-employee director compensation against our Compensation Peer Group and other large, public companies and assessed the appropriateness of the form and amount of our non-employee director compensation. In addition, the Governance Committee retained FW Cook, the independent compensation consultant to the Board, to benchmark the compensation for the Board Chair. Based on this review, the Governance Committee recommended to the Board and the Board approved holdingincreasing the 2019equity portion of the 2020 retainers atby $8,000 to keep the 2018 levels.retainer in the median range of director compensation and to pay the Board retainers quarterly in arrears. The Board concluded that maintainingincreasing the retainersequity portion of the retainer was appropriate to support its director recruitment and retention objectives, while recognizing the Company’s ongoing cost-cutting efforts.objectives. The Board believes that continuing to pay a larger proportion of the annual retainer in Company stock serves to further align director compensation and shareholders’ interests.

Additionally, our 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan, which was approved by our shareholders at the 2015 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, caps the maximum aggregate dollar value of equity awards that can be made to any individual non-employee director in a calendar year at $500,000. All stock grants made in fiscal 20192020 to non-employee directors were significantly below this amount. See the “2019“2020 Director Compensation” table below for specific values.

The table below sets forth the components of non-employee director compensation for 2019:2020:

Annual Cash Retainer:		$119,000
Annual Stock Retainer:		$129,000137,000
Committee Chair Retainers:		$25,000 for Audit Committee
		$20,000 for Compensation and Organization Committee
		$15,000 for Finance and Corporate Development Committee
		$15,000 for Governance Committee
Audit Committee Member Retainer (excluding Chair):		$7,500
Board Chair Annual Retainer:		$350,000

All non-employee director compensation is typicallyfor the 2019 calendar year was paid inon or about January 7, 2019 other than for directors that arewere elected or arewere appointed to the Board leadership positions mid-year. Effective as of January 1, 2020, the Company changed the method in which non-employee director compensation is paid. All non-employee director compensation is now paid in the arrears in four equal quarterly installments on or about March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31.

The retainers for Committee chairs, Audit Committee members and the Board Chair are in addition to the annual cash and stock retainers paid to all non-employee directors. These additional retainers are delivered 50% in cash and 50% in shares of Campbell stock. Directors may elect to receive shares of Campbell stock in lieu of their cash retainers. There were no changes to these additional retainers in fiscal 2019.2020.

We typically do not pay a Company employee who also serves as a director any additional compensation for serving as a director. Currently, Mr. Clouse is the only director who is also a Company employee. Mr. McLoughlin received pro-rated director compensation after he resigned from his role as Interim President and Chief Executive Officer in January 2019. The amounts paid to Mr. McLoughlin as director compensation are included in the 2019 Director Compensation table, which appears on page 30.

Directors do not receive individual meeting fees. We pay for, provide or reimburse directors for expenses incurred to attend Board and Committee meetings and director education programs. Directors do not have a retirement plan or receive any benefits such as life or medical insurance. Directors do receive business travel and accident insurance coverage.

As of the date of this proxy statement, each of our directors has met or is on track to meet this guideline.

Policy on Hedging and Pledging

ITEM 2 — RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the independent registered public accounting firm.

The Audit Committee has re-appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2020.2021. PwC or one of its predecessor firms has been retained as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm continuously since we went public in 1954. Representatives of PwC will be atattend the 20192020 Annual Meeting to make a statement if they desire to do so and to answer appropriate questions from shareholders.

The Audit Committee evaluated PwC’s performance, qualifications and independence in making its determination to re-appointreappoint PwC. The factors considered in the evaluation included:

■	PwC’s performance during fiscal 20192020 and in previous fiscal years, including the results of a management survey measuring (i) the quality of PwC’s services, (ii) the sufficiency of PwC’s resources, (iii) PwC’s communication skills and (iv) PwC’s independence and objectivity;
■	PwC’s global reach, expertise and experience in the consumer packagedconsumer-packaged goods industry;
■	The experience, professional qualifications and education of the PwC engagement team;
■	A review of PwC’s independence program and the processes it uses to maintain independence;
■	The scope of PwC’s internal quality control program and the results of its most recent quality control reviews, including reviews by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and PwC’s peers; and
■	The appropriateness of PwC’s fees for its professional services.

The Audit Committee has the sole authority to approve all engagement fees to be paid to PwC. The Audit Committee regularly meets with the lead audit partner without members of management present, and in executive session with only Audit Committee members present, which provides the opportunity for continuous assessment of the firm’s effectiveness and independence and for consideration of rotating audit firms. In accordance with SEC rules and PwC policies, the firm’s lead engagement partner rotates at least every five years. The Audit Committee and its Chair are involved in the selection of PwC’s lead engagement partner.

The Audit Committee and the Board of Directors believe that the continued retention of PwC to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 20202021 is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. Shareholder ratification of the appointment is not required under the laws of the State of New Jersey or our Articles or By-Laws, but as a matter of good corporate governance, the Board is submitting this proposal to shareholders. The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the meeting is required for ratification. Abstentions will not be counted as votes cast on this proposal. If the appointment is not ratified, the Audit Committee will consider whether it is appropriate to select another audit firm.

All audit, audit-related, tax and other fees described above were pre-approved by the Audit Committee in accordance with its pre-approval policy.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy

Our Audit Committee’s policy is to pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accountants. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other permissible non-audit services. The pre-approval authority details the particular service or category of service that the independent registered public accountants will perform. Management reports to the Audit Committee on the actual fees charged by the independent registered public accountants for each category of service.

During the year, circumstances may arise when it becomes necessary to engage the independent registered public accountants for additional services not contemplated in the original pre-approval authority. In those instances, the Audit Committee approves the services before we engage the independent registered public accountants. In case approval is needed before a scheduled Audit Committee meeting, the Audit Committee has authority to delegate pre-approval authority to one of its members who must report on such pre-approval decisions at the Audit Committee’s next regular meeting. During fiscal 2019,2020, the Audit Committee delegated authority to its Chair to pre-approve additional audit and non-audit services in an amount not to exceed $200,000.

Auditor Independence

Our Audit Committee discussed with PwC the firm’s objectivity and independence and PwC advised the committee that PwC is an independent accountant with respect to Campbell, within the meaning of Public Accounting Oversight Board Rule 3520 and that the members of its firm are not aware of any relationships between PwC and Campbell that, in their professional judgment, may reasonably be thought to bear on their independence. Furthermore, PwC has advised us that neither it nor any member of its firm has any financial interest, direct or indirect, in any capacity in us or our subsidiaries. We have made similar inquiries of our directors and executive officers, and we have identified no such direct or indirect interest in PwC. Our Audit Committee also considered whether the provision of non-audit services by PwC to Campbell for the most recent fiscal year and the fees and costs billed and expected to be billed by PwC for those services are compatible with maintaining its independence.

Audit Committee Report

Management has primary responsibility for Campbell’s financial statements and the reporting process, including the systems of internal control over financial reporting. Our role as the Audit Committee of Board of Directors is to oversee Campbell’s accounting and financial reporting processes, including the systems of internal control over financial reporting, and audits of its financial statements.

ITEM 3 — ADVISORY VOTE ON FISCAL 20192020 EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Section 14A of the Exchange Act requires that shareholders be given the opportunity to cast an advisory (non-binding) vote on executive compensation. This vote, commonly known as a “Say on Pay” vote, gives shareholders the opportunity to vote for or against named executive officer (“NEO”) compensation during a given fiscal year. Shareholders’ votes are not intended to address any specific item of the compensation program, but rather to address our overall approach to executive compensation as disclosed in this proxy statement in accordance with the SEC’s rules.

As described in detail in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis beginning on page 35,38, our compensation program is designed to link pay to Company, division and individual performance, and reward achievements in those areas accordingly. The objectives of the executive compensation program are to:

■●	Align the financial interests of our NEOs with those of our shareholders, in both the short and long term;
■●	Provide incentives for achieving and exceeding our short- and long-term goals;
■●	Attract, motivate and retain key executives by providing total compensation opportunities that are competitive with opportunities offered by other companies in the food, beverage and consumer products industries; and
■●	Differentiate the level of compensation based on individual and business unit performance, leadership potential and level of responsibility within the organization.

The Compensation and Organization Committee (“Compensation Committee”) of the Board of Directors annually reviews our compensation structure, including the apportionment of pay between fixed and at-risk compensation elements and the design of the incentive compensation programs, andreviewsand reviews and approves the applicable performance metrics by which such at-risk compensation is paid. The Compensation Committee believes that our executive compensation program effectively implements our compensation principles and policies, achieves our compensation objectives and aligns the interests of the NEOs and shareholders. Please read the entire Compensation Discussion and Analysis beginning on page 3538 for additional details about our executive compensation programs, including detailed information about fiscal year 20192020 compensation of the NEOs.

The Board of Directors is asking shareholders to support our fiscal 20192020 executive compensation program, as disclosed in this proxy statement. The vote required for approval of this proposal is a majority of the votes cast. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast on this proposal. This vote on executive compensation is advisory, and therefore, will not be binding on Campbell Soup Company, the Compensation Committee or the Board of Directors, and it will not be construed as overruling any decision by the Company or the Board of Directors or creating or implying any change to, or additional fiduciary duties for, the Company or the Board of Directors.

Your Board of Directors Recommends a Vote “For” This Proposal and “For” the Following Resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the shareholders of Campbell Soup Company approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to Campbell Soup Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed in the 20192020 Proxy Statement pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s compensation disclosure rules, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the 20192020 executive compensation tables and related narrative discussion.”

WHAT HAPPENED IN 2019?2020?

2019 Strategic ProgressStrategy and 2020 Financial Results

On August 30, 2018,Our strategy is to deliver profitable growth by focusing on our core brands in two divisions within North America. This strategy is based on four pillars:

●	Creating a profitable growth model;
●	Fueling investments and margins with targeted cost savings;
●	Building a winning team and culture; and
●	Delivering on the promise of our purpose - Real food that matters for life’s moments.

Fiscal 2020 illustrated the importance of a focused strategic plan and a dynamic team as we announcedfaced the unprecedented challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. The year can be viewed in two clear and separate halves. The first half of our fiscal 2020 was a period of steady execution against our strategic roadmap. We began the year focused on strengthening our brand powerhouse, with two distinct divisions concentrated in North America: Meals & Beverages and Snacks; each home to strong portfolios of products. We kicked off our “Win in Soup” plans and we completed our planned divestitures of our Campbell International and European chips businesses, using the proceeds to reduce our debt while implementing a new operating model to optimize growth and profitability. The progress we were making with our strategic plan during the first half of the year led to our overall results tracking ahead of our performance targets.

The groundwork we established in the first half of fiscal 2020 served as a springboard for the business into the second half of the year, when progress against our strategy accelerated further as a result of the pandemic. This translated into a year well above what we had originally planned.

We experienced broad-based demand across our portfolio as consumers sheltered in place and objectivesfilled their pantries with the brands they recognize and trust. We also saw elevated repeat purchase rates and new buyers of our products, especially in soup.

Our performance this year was enabled by the extraordinary work of our teams who remained agile and resilient in a challenging operating environment. We rallied around a simplified mission and executed extremely well. Our Meals & Beverages supply chain pivoted from supporting flat to declining businesses to showing resiliency in responding to a significant surge in increased orders at the outset of the pandemic. The company’s leadership developed a plan to optimize our supply chain network to meet unprecedented demand from our strategic review. During fiscal 2019,customers while establishing sanitation and safety protocols to ensure our plants continued to operate. As the year went on and we continued to experience elevated demand for our products, we continued to invest in our brands. We also made significant progress towards achievingin advancing our objectives.Snacks integration plans and our cost savings program, both of which remain on track.

August 2018 Objectives			Fiscal 2019 Accomplishments
●Focus the Company on two distinct businesses - Snacks and Meals & Beverages, in our core North American market			●Developed a new, straightforward strategy focused on one geography and two core businesses
●Divest Campbell Fresh and Campbell International			●Sold our U.S. refrigerated soup business on February 25, 2019 ●Sold our Garden Fresh Gourmet business on April 25, 2019 ●Sold our Bolthouse Farms business on June 16, 2019 ●Signed a definitive agreement for the sale of our Kelsen business on July 12, 2019, and completed the sale on September 23, 2019 ●Signed a definitive agreement on August 1, 2019, for the sale of our Arnott’s business and certain other international operations
●Reduce debt			●Divestiture net proceeds of approximately $3 billion will be used to significantly reduce our debt
●Increase cost savings target			●Achieved $560 million of the expected $850 million in cost savings from continuing operations that we expect to achieve by the end of fiscal 2022

On August 30, 2019,September 3, 2020, we announced our fiscal 20192020 financial results, which included:

●	Net sales of $8.107$ 8.69 billion, an increase of 7% versus 2019
●	Earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”)EBIT of $979 million$1.11 billion, an increase of 13% versus 2019
●	Adjusted EBIT of $1.266$1.45 billion, an increase of 14% versus 2019
●	Earnings per share (“EPS”)EPS from continuing operations of $1.57$1.95, an increase of 24% versus 2019
●	Adjusted EPS from continuing operations of $2.30$2.95, an increase of 28% versus 2019
●	Cash flows from operations of $1.398$1.40 billion
●	Debt from continuing operations decreased by $2.28 billion

In addition, our TSR performance during fiscal 2020 was 24.6%.

More information on our business performance in fiscal 20192020 is available in our 20192020 Form 10-K, which is included in the 20192020 Annual Report to Shareholders that accompanies this proxy statement. Information on items impacting comparability is available in Appendix A, which also provides a reconciliation of adjusted EBIT and adjusted EPS, which are non-GAAP measures, to their most comparable GAAP measures.

20192020 Executive Compensation: New Developments and Payouts

In fiscal 2019, the Committee made a number of changes to the Company’s executive compensation program:

●	Moved away from using a balanced scorecard to measure performance under the AIP and began to utilize a more formulaic approach with three financial metrics – net sales, adjusted EPS and free cash flow – to determine funding for the AIP pool. The Committee believes these financial metrics are aligned with the Company’s strategic objectives and that achievement of the Company’s sales, earnings and cash flow goals are essential to creating shareholder value;
●	Included free cash flow as a performance measure in the fiscal 2019 LTI Program to further align executive compensation with the Company’s most important business objectives; and
●	Adopted the Campbell Soup Company Executive Severance Plan to provide a common standard for severance benefits for the NEOs in the event of an involuntary termination without cause.

Our financial performance in fiscal 2019 met or2020 significantly exceeded the metrics that were established by the Committee under the AIP, as discussed, beginning on pages 42 and 43.page 44. Based on our results and the Committee’s overall evaluation of Company performance in fiscal 20192020 as further described on pages 42 and 43,45 through 46, the Committee funded the AIP pool at 153%175% of target.

Our total shareholder return (“TSR”)TSR performance over the three-year performance period ending in fiscal 20192020 was ranked 8th in the bottom quartile of the11-company Performance Peer Group, resulting in the TSR performance-restricted share units with a performance period ending in fiscal 20192020 vesting at 0%50% of target. See pagepages 47 through 49 for additional information.

CFO Transition

Mr. Beekhuizen was elected as Chief Financial Officer, and Mr. DiSilvestro was removed from the same role effective September 30, 2019. As a result of his termination without cause, Mr. DiSilvestro left the Company on March 31, 2020 at which point he received the benefits to which he was entitled under the Executive Severance Benefit Plan as described on page 65.

CEO Transition

In May 2018, our Board appointed Keith R. McLoughlin as Interim President and Chief Executive Officer to serve until the appointment by the Board of a permanent president and chief executive officer. On December 20, 2018, the Board elected Mark A. Clouse as President and Chief Executive Officer, effective January 22, 2019.

As discussed further below, Mr. Clouse’s compensation is consistent with our executive compensation program for the other NEOs and with the Committee’s compensation objectives, principles and policies. Mr. Clouse’s fiscal 2019 compensation package consists of:

●	annual base salary of $1,000,000;
●	AIP target of 140% of base salary (pro rated for fiscal 2019); and
●	long-term incentive award target of 500% of base salary under the Company’s LTI Program.

Mr. Clouse received his target long-term incentive award of $5,000,000 for fiscal 2019 on January 22, 2019, and also received a sign-on grant of 150,000 non-qualified stock options. In setting Mr. Clouse’s compensation, the Committee reviewed CEO benchmarks within the Compensation Peer Group and established a compensation package that was consistent with these benchmarks and which the Committee believed was appropriate and necessary to recruit an executive of Mr. Clouse’s caliber.

When Mr. Clouse became President and Chief Executive Officer on January 22, 2019, Mr. McLoughlin resumed his status as an independent director. For his service as Interim President and Chief Executive Officer, the Board approved a cash bonus of $1,650,000 for Mr. McLoughlin.

The compensation arrangements for Mr. Clouse andMr. McLoughlin are further described throughout this CD&A.

WHAT ARE OUR COMPENSATION PRACTICES?

Compensation Objectives

The objectives of our executive compensation program are to:

●	Align the financial interests of the NEOs with those of our shareholders, in both the short and long term;
●	Provide incentives for achieving and exceeding our short-term and long-term goals;
●	Attract, motivate and retain our key executives by providing total compensation opportunities that are competitive with opportunities offered by other companies in the food, beverage and consumer products industries; and
●	Differentiate the level of compensation based on individual and business unit performance, leadership potential and level of responsibility within the organization. Individual performance is rated based upon demonstrated leadership skills, accomplishment of objectives, business unit or functional accountabilities and personal contributions.

Compensation Principles and Policies

The Compensation and Organization Committee annually reviews and approves the principles and policies for executive compensation. In fiscal 2019,2020, the Committee reviewed the compensation principles and policies and made the following changes: (1) removed references to targeting compensation at 5% to 10% above median and instead referred to targeting compensation to approximate the regressed market median in order to more accurately reflect the Committee’s compensation philosophy, and (2) removed references to stock options in the long-term incentive program, as the Committee had determined it would not use stock options as part of the fiscal 2020 long-term incentive grants.that no changes were required. The current compensation principles and policies are:

●	Campbell offers a total compensation package that is designed to link pay to Company, business unit and individual performance and attract, motivate and retain talentthe caliber of the calibertalent needed to deliver successful business performance in absolute terms and relative to competition;
●	Compensation levels are set after comparing Campbell’s pay levels and practices to the practices of the Compensation Peer Group (see pages 39 and 40)page 42), which is reviewed annually by the Committee;
●	Campbell targets total annual compensation, consisting of salary, annual incentives and long-term incentives, to approximate the regressed market median to enable the Company to recruit and retain executive talent. A regression analysis is performed to adjust the compensation data for the top executive positions to take into account differences in the total revenue of various peer companies compared to our total revenue. Our competitive position is reviewed annually by the Committee. An individual executive’s salary, target annual incentive and target long-term incentives may be higher or lower than the regressed market median due to a number of factors including the scope of the individual’s job responsibilities, his or her individual contributions and experience, business performance and job market conditions;
●	Annual incentive payments are based on our performance compared to the goals established at the beginning of the fiscal year in designated measurement areas relating to our financial and enterprise priorities for that year. The Committee evaluates performance compared to the annual goals to establish the AIP pool and uses its discretion to make any adjustments;
●	Long-term incentive grants are delivered in a combination of performance-restricted share units and time-lapse restricted share units, with the mix varying by level of responsibility within the organization; and
●	Senior executives have a substantial portion of their compensation at risk, based upon the achievement of the performance goals for annual incentive payments and the performance goals for long-term incentives. To further align the interests of our senior executives with those of shareholders, a higher proportion of the incentive compensation delivered to senior executives is through performance-based long-term incentives that are paid out depending upon our financial performance (see pages 4447 through 4649 for a description of the LTI Program).

Results of 20182019 Say on Pay Vote

At the 20182019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, we held our annual shareholder advisory vote on executive compensation, or “Say on Pay” vote. Approximately ninetyninety-seven percent (90%(97%) of the votes cast were in favor of the “Say on Pay” proposal.

As the Committee evaluated our compensation principles and policies during fiscal 2019,2020, it was mindful of this favorable outcome and our shareholders’ strong support of our compensation objectives and compensation programs. The Committee has maintained its general approach to executive compensation and made no material changes in fiscal 20192020 to the compensation principles and policies or the objectives of our compensation program in response to the results of the “Say on Pay” vote. The Committee did refresh certain elements of our AIP and LTI Program, as noted on page 36 and further discussed in this CD&A. See “Item 3 – Advisory Vote on Fiscal 2019 Executive Compensation” on page 34 for additional information on the 2019 “Say on Pay” vote.

HOW ARE COMPENSATION DECISIONS MADE?

Role of the Compensation and Organization Committee

The Committee has overall responsibility for our executive compensation program. The Committee annually reviews compensation strategy, principles and policies, including the apportionment of pay between fixed compensation and incentive compensation elements, and the design of incentive compensation programs. The Committee approves all compensation and benefits for our executive officers (including current executive officers who are NEOs) and Company executives with base salaries in excess of $500,000 per year, authorizes the aggregate amount of annual incentive awards for all eligible participants under the AIP and the LTI Program, and authorizes the CEO to allocate awards to other participants under the AIP and the LTI Program, up to an aggregate amount. Pursuant to the terms of its charter, the Committee is authorized to delegate any of its responsibilities to subcommittees as it deems appropriate, subject to the requirements of applicable laws, regulations and shareholder approved plans. The Committee has delegated to the Chair of the Committee the authority to approve compensation actions for executive officers between Committee meetings when absolutely necessary for business continuity purposes. A subcommittee consisting of the Chair of the Committee and either the independent Board Chair or another independent director must jointly approve any equity grants made to executive officers between meetings.

Following the completion of the fiscal year, the Committee reviews the performance of the NEOs and approves each executive’s annual incentive payment for the just-completed fiscal year and certifies the vesting of long-term incentive awards for performance periods ending as of the just-completed fiscal year. The Committee also reviews and approves the base salary, annual incentive target and long-term incentive grant for the current fiscal year. This review of all major elements of executive compensation at one time provides the Committee with a comprehensive analysis of the target dollar amount of compensation that would be delivered by each element of compensation, assuming that the required performance goals are attained.

The Committee also reviews major organizational changes and reviews our succession planning and leadership development processes.

Role of Management

It is our customary practice for the CEO and the SeniorExecutive Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer to provide recommendations to the Committee on compensation actions for our executive officers (except for actions related to their own compensation) and on potential changes in the design of executive compensation programs, which the Committee then reviews with its independent compensation consultant. In September 2018,2019, Mr. McLoughlinClouse and the SeniorExecutive Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer recommended to the Committee compensation actions for all of theCompany’sthe Company’s executive officers (other than their own positions), including the NEOs, as well as Company executives with base salaries over $500,000.

Role of Independent Compensation Consultant

Pursuant to its charter, the Committee is authorized to engage an outside advisor to assist in the design and evaluation of our executive compensation program, as well as to approve the fees paid to such advisor and other terms of the engagement. Prior to the retention of an outside advisor, the Committee assesses the prospective advisor’s independence, taking into consideration all relevant factors, including those factors specified in the NYSE listing standards.

FW Cook has been the Committee’s independent compensation consultant since fiscal 2014. In connection with its review of FW Cook’s performance in fiscal 2019, the Committee conducted an2020, including its evaluation of FW Cook’s performance and independence, and determined it would continuethe Committee decided to engageretain FW Cook as its compensation consultant. FW Cook does not provide us with any services other than advising the Committee on executive compensation and advising the Governance Committee on non-employee director compensation. The Committee did not engage any other advisor in fiscal 2019.2020. At the direction of the Committee, FWCookFW Cook provided advice on CEO and former CEO compensation, compensation trends, governance issues and other matters of interest to the Committee during fiscal 2019.2020. The Committee assessed FW Cook’s independence, taking into account a number of factors such as: (1) the provision of other services to Campbell by

FW Cook; (2) the amount of fees received from Campbell by FW Cook as a percentage of the total revenue of FW Cook; (3) FW Cook’s policies and procedures to prevent conflicts of interest; (4) any business or personal relationship between FW Cook and the members of the Committee; (5) any ownership of Campbell stock by the individuals at FW Cook performing consulting services for the Committee; and (6) any business or personal relationship between FW Cook and any Campbell executive officer. FW Cook provided the Committee with appropriate assurances regarding its independence. Based on this analysis, the Committee has concluded that FW Cook has been independent throughout its service to the Committee and that there are no conflicts of interest.

Peer Groups

The Committee identifies both a Compensation Peer Group and a Performance Peer Group (which is a subset of the Compensation Peer Group) in designing and determining executive compensation. The Committee uses the Compensation Peer Group to evaluate the competitiveness of executive compensation and uses the Performance Peer Group to measure our relative TSR performance.

The Compensation Peer Group consists of companies in the food, beverage and consumer products industries with whom we primarily compete for executive talent. The Performance Peer Group consists ofincludes the companies in the Standard & Poor’s Packaged Foods Group, which are independently selected by Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) based upon the similarities of the companies’ businesses in the packaged foods industry.

The composition of the Compensation Peer Group is reviewed and approved by the Committee each fiscal year after obtaining advice from its independent compensation consultant. For fiscal 2019,2020, following its review and in light of the acquisitionmerger of Snyder’s-Lance,Keurig Green Mountain Inc. and Dr. Pepper Snapple Group, Inc., the Committee added Flowers Foods,replaced the Dr. Pepper Snapple Group, Inc. towith Keurig Dr. Pepper Inc. in the Compensation Peer Group. The Committee previously removed Reynolds American Inc. from the fiscal 2019 Compensation Peer Group following its acquisition by British American Tobacco.

In fiscal 2019,2020, the Committee compared our target total compensation levels with levels at the companies in the Compensation Peer Group identified in the table below. Given our relatively small size in relation to many of the companiesincompanies in the Compensation Peer Group, a regression analysis was performed to adjust the compensation data for the top positions for differences in the total revenues of the various companies compared to our total revenue. The Committee believes that use of the Compensation Peer Group is the most effective method to evaluate and set the compensation needed to attract, motivate and retain the executive talent needed to manage our businesses and operations successfully, because these are the primary companies with which we compete for senior executives. Use of this peer group also provides a broad database that allows Campbell to obtain accurate, representative survey information for a majority of its positions.

The Committee also reviewed the Performance Peer Group in fiscal 20192020 and continues to believe that it is the appropriate group in Campbell’s industry against which to measure our TSR performance. TSR performance of the companies in the Compensation Peer Group that are not in the packaged foods industry is more likely to be affected by economic developments that do not affect the packaged foods industry. Companies that are added to and deleted from the S&P Packaged Foods Group are automatically added to, or deleted from, the Performance Peer Group. The companies currently in the S&P Packaged Foods Group are noted in the table below; this list is also readily available through S&P.

Other NEOs

Base Salary

The Committee considers a number of factors in determining individual base salaries for the NEOs, including the scope of an individual’s job responsibilities, his or her individual contributions and experience, business performance, job market conditions, the salary budget guidelines, and the individual’s current base salary as compared with those of persons in similar positions at other companies in the Compensation Peer Group, as well as within the Company. Targets for annual incentive payments and long-term incentive grants are a percentage of base salary.

Individual salaries for NEOs are reviewed each September by the Committee when it conducts its annual review of executive performance. Merit increases are generally based on the CEO’s (for executives other than the CEO) and the Committee’s assessment of individual performance.

In September 2018,2019, the Committee reviewed the base salaries for all of the NEOs who were employed by the Company at that time, other than Mr. McLoughlin.time. The Committee did notdecided to increase the fiscal 20192020 base salaries for Messrs. Clouse, Ciongoli DiSilvestro or Mignini. Mr. McLoughlin’s base salary was established in May 2018, at the time of his appointment as Interim CEO and did not change throughout the duration of his time in that role.Foley. Mr. Clouse’s base salary was established in December 2018 in connection with his employment as CEO of the Company and was designedincreased to be competitive with the CEO benchmark within the Compensation Peer Group. Messrs. Ciongoli’s and Foley’s base salaries were increased by 2% and 3%, respectively, in line with the average salary increases for our U.S.-based salaried employees.

As stated above, Mr. Beekhuizen was elected Executive Vice President and CFO effective September 30, 2019, and his base salary was set at $700,000, which was in line with the CFO benchmark within our Compensation Peer Group. Effective April 2019,2020, the Committee setincreased Mr. Abrams-Rivera’sFoley’s base salary from $550,000 to $615,000 to bring his base salary closer to the market median as compared with those persons in similar positions at $670,000other companies in connection with his promotion to Seniorthe Compensation Peer Group. Ms. Oswalt was elected as Executive Vice President of the Company and President, Campbell Snacks.

Annual Incentive Compensation

In fiscal 2019,2020, all NEOs other than Mr. McLoughlin were eligible to receive an annual incentive award under the Campbell Soup Company Annual Incentive Plan (“AIP”). Awards to NEOs under the AIP are determined based on Company and/or division performance (as applicable) and individual performance, as illustrated in the table below. A narrative discussion of each component follows.

Annual Incentive Target		Total Company Performance Score*		Individual Award Determination		Final Award
The Committee sets a target percentage for each NEO based on competitive market data. The target percentages for all AIP-eligible participants (other than the CEO) are applied to individual base salaries (other than the CEO’s) to calculate a target AIP award pool for the total Company.		The score is determined by the Committee based on an assessment of the Company’s performance versus pre-established financial goals and the quality of the results. The full range of possible scores is 0-175%.		This is determined by the Committee, in the case of the CEO, and the Committee with input from the CEO for the other NEOs. The range of possible scores is 0-150%.
Together, these determine the total approved AIP pool for the Company**				This determines an individual NEO’s “share” of the approved pool		In all events, capped at 200% of an individual’s AIP target

*	AIP awards for NEOs who are division leaders are determined using a score that is weighted 20%30% on the assessment of total Company performance and 80%70% on the assessment of the division’s performance.

**

The total approved AIP pool for the Company as described above does not include payments to the CEO. The CEO’s AIP payment comes from a separate pool, but is calculated in the same manner as described above (i.e., CEO’s annual incentive target multiplied by the Total Company Performance Score multiplied by the CEO’s Individual Performance Score, capped in all events at 200% of the CEO’s annual incentive target).

Annual Incentive Target

Each year, the Committee establishes a competitive annual incentive target under the AIP, expressed as a percentage of base salary, for each NEO. The AIP target percentages are at or near the size-adjusted median for similar executive positions at companies in the Compensation Peer Group. The sum of the individual incentive targets for all AIP participants (approximately 1,7341,754 executives, managers and professionals) comprises the target AIP award pool. The maximum payout under the AIP for any individual is 200% of his or her target.

The Committee reviewed the fiscal 20192020 AIP targets for Messrs. Clouse, Ciongoli, DiSilvestroFoley and MigniniDiSilvestro and determined that no changes were warranted to the targets for fiscal2019. Mr. Clouse’s fiscal 20192020. The Committee set Ms. Oswalt’s full-year 2020 AIP target was established in December 2018 in connection with his employment as CEO of the Company. The Committee increased Mr. Abrams-Rivera’s fiscal 2019at 80% and Messrs. Beekhuizen’s and DiSilvestro’s full-year 2020 AIP from 70% to 80% in connection with his promotion to Senior Vice President and President, Campbell Snacks in April 2019; Mr. Abrams-Rivera’s fiscal 2019 target shown below is based on the portion of the fiscal year he spent in his current and prior roles.

Fiscal 20192020 Total Company Performance Score

Fiscal 20192020 was a transition year for Campbell. On August 30, 2018,in which we planned to stabilize our results by executing against our strategy, complete the previously announced the results and objectives from our strategic review. We also disclosed our plans to divestdivestitures of our Campbell International and Campbell Fresh businesses and usedeleverage our balance sheet with the proceeds to significantly reduce debt,from the divestitures and announced that we were increasing our multi-year cost savings target and driving asset efficiency in working capital and capital expenditures to generate additional free cash flow.flows.

Considering the foregoing, the Committee chose to base the fiscal 20192020 Total Company Performance Score for the AIP on three financial metrics – net sales, adjusted EPS and free cash flow – and established the performance targets set forth in the table below (dollars in millions, except per share amounts).

		Performance Targets											Performance Targets
Metric Weighting		Threshold			Target					Over-Achievement			Threshold			Target			Over-Achievement
Net Sales (30%)		$	9,680		$	9,929	– $	10,029		$	10,179
Adjusted EPS (30%)		$	2.40		$	2.52	– $	2.54		$	2.63
Net Sales (30%)*													$	7,887		$	8,090 – $8,172		$	8,294
Adjusted EPS (30%)*													$	2.41		$	2.53 – $ 2.55		$	2.64
Free Cash Flow (40%)		$	686		$	726	– $	734		$	759		$	611		$	647 – $ 653		$	689

*

The performance goals set for 2020 net sales and adjusted EPS were established for our continuing operations and excluded results from our divested businesses, which were reported as discontinued operations in 2019, whereas the performance goals for the 2019 AIP were established before the businesses were classified as discontinued operations and the Committee used total company results to evaluate performance. Please see page 42 of our 2019 Proxy Statement for an explanation of the 2019 AIP. For more information about our businesses which were reported as discontinued operations in 2019, please see our 2019 Form 10-K.

The performance targets set forth above align with the Company’s internal operating plan and externally provided net sales and adjusted EPS guidance forthat we shared at the beginning of fiscal 20192020 and were designed to be challenging to achieve. For each metric, threshold performance results in a 50% payout of target funding, performance within the target range results in a 100% payout of target funding, and over achievement results in a 175% payout of target funding; straight-line interpolation will be used between points to determine the actual payout.

In establishing the metrics, performance targets and payout ranges for the fiscal 20192020 Total Company Performance Score at the beginning of the fiscal year, the Committee recognized that fiscal 20192020 would be a year of re-focusstabilizing results to establish the foundation for the Company and took into consideration a number of challenges the Company was facing, including: the needsustainable future performance, while continuing to integrate newly acquired businesses, prepare businesses for divestiture and strengthen the balance sheet, as well as further reduce costs and increase the Company’s asset efficiency to reflect a leaner, more focused and agile enterprise.deliver on our turnaround, which began in fiscal 2019. The Committee was also cognizant of the external outlook that the Company had provided to its investors at the beginning of the fiscal year. The Committee believed that linking the fiscal 20192020 AIP to net sales, adjusted EPS from continuing operations and free cash flow would appropriately incent the management team to take the necessary steps to stabilize thebusiness, restructure the portfoliobusiness, continue brand growth in Snacks, invest in our Meals & Beverages business and emphasize better execution, which it believed would establish the foundation for longer-term sustainable performancecontinue to deliver cost savings and profitable growth and increase shareholder value.network optimization. It established the performance targets and payout ranges described above to incent management to deliver its external outlook, which the Committee believed would help the Company begin to re-establish credibility and reduce volatility in the Company’s share price.establish a solid foundation for future business growth.

The table below summarizes our fiscal 20192020 performance for AIP purposes, which may varypurposes. Adjusted EPS from our reported results, and the performance assessment and determination of the Total Company Score. Fiscal 2019 net sales performance as measured for AIP purposes includes sales from businesses reported as discontinuedcontinuing operations (including sales from Campbell Fresh during the portion of the year we owned that business and sales from the Kelsen Group, Arnott’s and the other Campbell International operations that we are divesting)is a non-GAAP measure and excludes the impact of foreign currency translation. Adjusted EPS for AIP purposes excludescertain items impacting comparability and the impact of foreign currency translation.as set forth in Appendix A. Free cash flow is an internal metric that measures net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures and certain investing and financing activities (dollars in millions, except per share amounts).

The Committee retains discretion to adjust the Total Company Performance Score for quality of results and other factors as it deems appropriate, but did not exercise such discretion in fiscal 2019.2020. In evaluating the quality of results the Committee considered a number of factors, including: our strong financial results; execution excellence in an unprecedented operating environment; successful divestiture of Campbell Fresh and announced divestitures of the Kelsen Group, Arnott’s and certain of our Campbell International operations;operations and the over-deliveryuse of cost savings while stabilizing margins.the proceeds to deleverage our balance sheet; and the strengthening of our operating model. The Committee noted the accomplishments set forth on page 36, aswellbelow, as well as the actions taken to stabilize the business, the progress made against our new strategic plan, and the improvement in operating discipline. It also considered the consistent delivery throughout the year of results that were aligned with or that exceeded the Company’s expectations. The Committee also took note of the fact that the overall fiscal 2020 results were tracking ahead of the performance targets prior to the outbreak of COVID-19 and that at the end of fiscal 2020 each of the AIP performance results significantly exceeded what was required for a Total Company Performance Score of 175. In light of Company performance versus the established AIP metrics for fiscal 20192020 and the aforementioned factors, the Committee believed that the Total Company Performance Score of 153175 that was generated by the AIP formula was an appropriate Company score for fiscal 2020. In the previous three years, the Committee funded the AIP pool at 65% of target in fiscal 2017, 0% of target in fiscal 2018 and 153% of target in fiscal 2019.

Fiscal 20192020 CEO and NEO Annual Incentive Compensation

Mark A. Clouse

In September 2019,2020, the Committee evaluated Mr. Clouse’s fiscal 20192020 performance, taking into account the Company’s performance in fiscal 20192020 against the metrics established for the AIP, for which Mr. Clouse, as our CEO, has ultimate oversight and responsibility. The Committee also evaluated Mr. Clouse’s individual performance, as assessed by all independent directors on the Board through the CEO evaluation process, noting his leadership in the following areas: managing through a global pandemic, delivery of financial results in line with externalguidance;external guidance; continued progress in capturing Snyder’s-Lance synergies and achieving earlier-than-expected enterprise costs savings; execution ofcompleting the divestitures of the Campbell FreshInternational and Campbell International;the European chips business; driving operating discipline; and buildingimplementing a strategy to build a winning team and culture. Based on this review, the Committee established Mr. Clouse’s fiscal 20192020 AIP award as shown in the table below. Mr. Clouse’s fiscal 2019 AIP target was pro-rated based on his time as CEO during fiscal 2019.

Keith R. McLoughlin

Mr. McLoughlin did not participate in the fiscal 2019 AIP. Instead, upon his appointment as Interim President and Chief Executive Officer in May, 2018, the Board established a target bonus of up to $2,200,000, representing 200% of his base salary, payable at the Board’s discretion and subject to achievement of certain individual goals and objectives, including: progress stabilizing the Company’s soup and shelf-stable beverage businesses; progress in stabilizing Campbell Fresh; identifying an appropriate portfolio structure and preparing for appropriate divestitures; and creation of a path for a successor CEO.

Following the designation of Mr. Clouse as President and Chief Executive Officer, in January 2019, the Committee reviewed Mr. McLoughlin’s performance as Interim President and CEO in light of these goals and objectives and recommendedthat the Board pay Mr. McLoughlin a bonus of $1,650,000. In making this determination, the Committee noted the following accomplishments: improved profitability through the second quarter of fiscal 2019 in the Company’s soup business; Mr. McLoughlin’s efforts with respect to the Board’s CEO search process which led to the identification and hiring of Mr. Clouse; the successful creation of an appropriate portfolio structure for the Company and the commencement of divestitures; and Mr. McLoughlin’s successful leadership in several other areas, including the strategic and portfolio review and the 2018 proxy contest, issues associated with the startup of our Findlay, Ohio distribution facility, and the impact of Hurricane Florence on our Maxton, North Carolina facility. The Board concurred with the Committee’s recommendation.

Luca Mignini

In fiscal 2019, Mr. Mignini transitioned to the role of Executive Vice President – Strategic Initiatives with responsibility for overseeing the divestiture of the Campbell International business. It was expected that his role would be eliminated as of August 1, 2019. In recognition of the importance of the Campbell International divestiture and to incent Mr. Mignini to remain with the Company through July 31, 2019, the Committee approved a fiscal 2019 AIP enhancement of up to $1 million for Mr. Mignini, subject to an overall cap of $2 million for all fiscal 2019 AIP payouts to Mr. Mignini. The performance goal established for the AIP enhancement was the execution by the Company of a definitive agreement for the divestiture of the CampbellInternational business by the end of the fiscal year. This AIP enhancement could increase Mr. Mignini’s total AIP payout by up to $1 million, but always is subject to the pre-existing cap on AIP payouts of 200% of Mr. Mignini’s target, or $2 million. The Company entered into an agreement to sell the Kelsen business on July 12, 2019 and entered into an agreement to sell the remainder of the Campbell International business on August 1, 2019. As a result of these actions and based on Mr. Clouse’s and the Committee’s assessment of Mr. Mignini’s leadership during a time of transition, the Committee approved an AIP enhancement of $470,000 to Mr. Mignini, brining his total fiscal 2019 AIP payout to $2,000,000, or 200% of target.

Mr. Clouse provided the Committee with his assessment of each NEO’s fiscal 20192020 performance and achievement relative to his or her individual performance goals. In providing the Committee with his assessment, Mr. Clouse made note of the following individual accomplishments for each NEO: Mr. DiSilvestro’sBeekhuizen’s leadership in the areas of capital structure management (including debt reduction and liquidity management), cash flow management and cost savings and his efforts duringto complete the strategic and portfolio review and resulting divestitures of Campbell Fresh and the Kelsen business and the planned divestiture of the Arnott’s businessand certain other international operations;business; Mr. Abrams-Rivera’sCiongoli’s management of the Arnott’s business prior to its divestiture, management of risks during the COVID-19 pandemic and his oversight of the legal aspects of divestitures completed during the fiscal year; Mr. Foley’s leadership of the Pacific Foods integration and the performance of the overall Meals & Beverages division under his leadership in fiscal 2020; and Ms. Oswalt’s leadership of the Snyder’s-Lance integration and value capture efforts and the performance of the overall Campbell Snacks division under hisher leadership in fiscal 2019; and2020.

Sign-On Bonuses to Mr. Beekhuizen and Ms. Oswalt

On August 28, 2019, we announced Mr. Beekhuizen was elected Executive Vice President and CFO effective September 30, 2019. In connection with his hiring, the Committee authorized a one-time cash payment of $700,000 in recognition of the forfeiture of the annual bonus from his prior employment. On March 2, 2020, we announced Ms. Oswalt was elected Executive Vice President and President, Campbell Snacks effective with her hire date of March 9, 2020. In connection with her hiring, the Committee authorized a one-time cash payment of $500,000 in recognition of the forfeiture of the annual bonus from her prior employment.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation

Long-term incentives are typically equity awards, although cash-based awards may be made in limited circumstances. Equity grants are typically approved by the Committee each September, which is near the beginning of our fiscal year. Individual grants are based on the executive’s level of responsibility, possession of critical skills, individual performanceandperformance and future leadership potential as assessed in our human resources organization planning process. The components of the LTI Program have evolved over time and are modified periodically to further the goals of the program. For fiscal 2020, the Committee decided to stop issuing stock options to the executive officers to simplify the design of the LTI program, while believing that the mix of performance and time-lapse restricted units provided strong shareholder alignment. All shares paid out under our LTI Program are treasury shares that were previously issued and outstanding or were reacquired by the Company.outstanding.

Fiscal 20192020 Long-Term Incentive Program

Each NEO other than Mr. McLoughlin,employed at the time of the LTI grants has a long-term incentive target that is expressed as a percentage of his or her base salary orand a dollar amount. These targets are designed to deliver total direct compensation that approximates the regressed market median, in accordance with our Compensation Principles and Policies. The Committee reviews the LTI targets for each NEO annually. The Committee increased Mr. Clouse’s fiscal 2020 LTI target from 500% to 525%. In making this decision, the Committee noted the progress made during fiscal 2019, including the successful divestiture of Campbell Fresh and the ongoing process for Campbell International, establishment of a new strategy and a new leadership team, and delivery of operating plan goals. The Committee particularly wanted to incent long-term behaviors by raising the LTI target. The Committee did not make any changes to the fiscal 2020 LTI targets for Messrs. Ciongoli DiSilvestro or MigniniDiSilvestro when it reviewed these targets in March 2018,2019. The Committee set Mr. Beekhuizen’s fiscal 2020 LTI target at 250% in connection with his employment as CFO effective September 30, 2019. The Committee set Mr. Foley’s fiscal 2020 LTI target at 220% of base salary in June 2019, prior to the approval of the fiscal 20192020 LTI grants. The Committee established an LTI target for Mr. Clouse in December 2018 in connection with his employment as CEO of the Company. The Committee set Mr. Abrams-Rivera’s fiscal 2019 LTI target to 195% of base salary in March 2018, prior to the approval of the fiscal 2019 LTI grants and increased the fiscal 2020 target for Mr. Abrams-Rivera from 195% to 220% of base salary in connection with his promotion to SeniorExecutive Vice President and President, Campbell SnacksMeals & Beverages in AprilJune 2019. Ms. Oswalt was not employed by the Company at the time of the fiscal 2020 LTI grants. Instead, she received a one-time grant as described further below.

Mr. Abrams-Rivera was not an executive officer at the time of the fiscal 2019 LTI grant, so he received 25% of his long-term incentive opportunity in TSR performance-restricted share units, 25% in FCF performance-restricted share units, and 50% in time-lapse restricted stock units. The fiscal 2019 grant to Mr. Abrams-Rivera was approved by the Committee.

Mr. DiSilvestro’s grant was at less than target and reflected the transitional nature of his role. As stated above, Ms. Oswalt was not employed by the Company at the time of the 2020 LTI award grants.

TSR Performance-Restricted Share Units

In fiscal 2019,2020, the Committee granted 60% of long-term incentive awards to the NEOs in the form of TSR performance-restricted share units. The Committee believed that it was appropriate to include an element that compared our performance to an external peer group, and that linking a significant portion of long-term compensation to our TSR performance aligns the interests of NEOs with those of our shareholders. TSR performance-restricted share units are paid out based upon our TSR performance over a three-year period compared to the TSRs of the other companies in the Performance Peer Group over the same three-year period. At the time ofpayment,of payment, the Committee can exercise negative discretion in determining our ranking under the TSR performance-restricted share unit portion of the program in the event of extraordinary circumstances.

The grants made in fiscal 20192020 have a fiscal 2019-20212020-2022 performance period. Based on the current composition of the Performance Peer Group, which has 11 companies, including Campbell, the percentage of target TSR units granted in fiscal 20192020 that will be paid out at the end of the performance period based upon our TSR performance ranking is illustrated in the chart below:

FCF Performance-Restricted Share Units

In fiscal 2019, the Committee granted long-term incentive awards to the NEOs in the form of FCF performance-restricted share units. The Committee believed it was important to include a cash flow objective in the long-term plan for fiscal 2019. The ability to generate free cash flow is important as it allows us to manage our balance sheet and reinvest in the business for future growth. The Committee recognized that free cash flow was also a metric in the fiscal 2019 AIP, but believed that free cash flow was particularly important at the time to support the Company’s long-term objectives. For a more detailed discussion of the Committee’s consideration of free cash flow, see the narrative on page 42 followingthe AIP performance targets table. The Committee will set a free cash flow performance goal at the beginning of each fiscal year in the three-year performance period, with results averaged at the end of the performance period to determine the payout. The grants made in fiscal 2019 have a fiscal 2019-2021 performance period. The free cash flow performance goal established for fiscal 2019 was $730 million. The Committee will establish annual free cash flow goals for fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2021 at the beginning of the applicable fiscal year. No portion of the FCF performance-restricted share units will be paid out until the completion of the three-year performance period.

Non-Qualified Stock Options

In fiscal 2019, the Committee granted long-term incentive awards to the NEOs (other than Mr. Abrams-Rivera) in the form of non-qualified stock options. The Committee believes that having stock options as a component of our LTI Program further links NEO compensation with shareholder interests and provides a compensation vehicle for NEOs that is linked to absolute share price performance. The stock options that weregranted to NEO’s in fiscal 2019, other than the sign-on grant to Mr. Clouse, will vest in equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date, and have a 10-year exercise period. For more information on the stock options granted in fiscal 2019, see the 2019 Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table on page 54.

Sign-On Grant to Mr. Clouse

In connection with his employment as CEO, on January 22, 2019, Mr. Clouse was granted a non-qualified stock option award of 150,000 options. This one-time grant was made as an inducement for Mr. Clouse to join Campbell and to create a strong incentive to develop and execute strategies toincrease shareholder value. The options will vest on the third anniversary of the grant date, and have a 10-year exercise period. For more information on this award, see the 2019 Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table on page 54.

Time-Lapse Restricted Share Units

In fiscal 2019,2020, the Committee granted long-term incentive awards to the NEOs in the form of time-lapse restricted share units. Time-lapse restricted share units will vest in equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date and are paid out two months following the end of each fiscal year provided that the NEO meets the service requirements. Following the adoption of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “TCJA”) and the elimination of the tax deduction for performance-based compensation under IRC Section 162(m), the Committee incorporated time-lapse restricted share units into the fiscal 2019 program for NEOs in lieu of EPS performance-restricted share units, which required achievement of a lower EPS goal (i.e. 50% of ourannual adjusted EPS goal) in the first year of the three-year performance period. As with the EPS performance-restricted share units, theThe Committee intends for the time-lapse restricted share units to be a retention tool.

In addition to the grants that are made as part of the annual long-term incentive program, the Committee may also grant time-lapse restricted share units to NEOs in other limited circumstances, typically (1) at the start of their employment with us in recognition of their forfeiture of long-term incentive grants from their prior employer, (2) as additional compensation when an NEO is promoted into a new role or given additional responsibilities, or (3) as an additional retention tool.

Retention GrantNew Employment Grants to Mr. Abrams-RiveraBeekhuizen and Ms. Oswalt

As stated above, Mr. Beekhuizen was elected Executive Vice President and CFO effective September 30, 2019. In fiscalconnection with his hiring, on October 1, 2019, the Committee awarded Mr. Abrams-RiveraBeekhuizen a one-time grant of 54,113 time-lapse restricted units in recognition of the forfeiture of equity awards from his prior employment. Similarly, Ms. Oswalt was promoted to the role of Seniorelected Executive Vice President and President, Campbell Snacks.Snacks on March 2, 2020 effective as of her hire date of March 9, 2020. In this role, Mr. Abrams-Rivera reports directly to the CEO and has responsibility for the Company’s North American snacks business, which includes the combined portfolios of Pepperidge Farm and Snyder’s-Lance. In recognition of thecriticality of this role, particularly over the next two years, the Committee granted 13,613 time-lapse restricted share units to Mr. Abrams-Riveraconnection with her hiring, on April 1, 2019. These2020, the Committee awarded Ms. Oswalt a one-time grant of 46,816 time-lapse restricted units willin recognition of the forfeiture of equity awards from her prior employment. The one-time grants to Mr. Beekhuizen and Ms. Oswalt vest in three equal annual installments beginning on the first two anniversariesanniversary of the grant date.

For more information on this award,these awards, see the 20192020 Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table on page 54.

Retention Grant to Mr. Mignini

In fiscal 2019, Mr. Mignini transitioned to the role of Executive Vice President – Strategic Initiatives with responsibility for overseeing the divestiture of the Campbell International business. It was expected that his role would be eliminated as of August 1, 2019. In recognition of the importance of the Campbell International divestiture andto incent Mr. Mignini to remain with the Company through July 31, 2019, the Committee granted 16,335 time-lapse restricted share units to Mr. Mignini on April 1, 2019. These units vested on July 31, 2019 and were paid out to Mr. Mignini. For more information on this award, see the 2019 Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table on page 54.55.

FCF Performance-Restricted Share Units

In fiscal 2019, the Committee granted long-term incentive awards to the NEOs in the form of free cash flow (“FCF”) performance-restricted share units. Prior to this year’s deleveraging of our balance sheet, the Committee believed that free cash flow was particularly important to the Company’s long-term objectives. The grants made in fiscal 2019 have a 2019-2021 performance period. The Committee establishes a goal for free cash flow for each year of the performance period. Accordingly, the fiscal 2019 LTI Program included FCF performance-restricted share units that will vest in part, based on free cash flow performance in fiscal 2019.2019, 2020 and 2021. Fiscal 2019 free cash flow was $1.022 billion, versus a target goal of $730 million, resulting in a performance score for fiscal 2019 of 200%. AdditionalFiscal 2020 free cash flow goalswas $1.078 billion, versus a target goal of $650 million, resulting in a performance score for fiscal 2020 of 200%. The fiscal 2020 goal reflected the anticipated divestiture of the Campbell International businesses as well as a lower incremental improvement in working capital compared to significant improvement in the prior year, which recognized the additive nature of working capital improvements. An additional free cash flow goal will be established for fiscal2020 and fiscal 2021 and the units that were granted in fiscal 2019 and 2020 and those to be granted in fiscal 2021 will vest at the end of fiscal 2021 based on the average of the three performance scores achieved over the three-year performance period. See page 46 for additional information onNo portion of the fiscal 2019 FCF performance-restricted share units.units will be paid out until the completion of the three-year performance period.

Retirement Plans and Other Benefits

Pension Plans

Eligible NEOs participate in twoone qualified, defined benefit plans: (1)pension plan, the Campbell Soup Company Retirement and Pension Plan (“Qualified Plan”); and in one of two non-qualified, defined benefit pension plans (1) the Campbell Soup Company Supplemental Employees’ Retirement Plan (“SERP”) or (2) the Campbell Soup Company Mid-Career Hire Pension Plan (“MCHP”). The Qualified Plan provides funded, tax-qualified benefits up to applicable annual limits allowed under the IRC for full-time U.S. employees who commenced employment with us prior to January 1, 2011. The SERP is an unfunded, non-qualified executive retirement plan which is intended to provide the benefits that are not payable under the Qualified Plan based on statutory compensation limits or due to the NEO’s deferral of compensation. The MCHP provides unfunded, nonqualified benefits to certain U.S.-based senior executives who were hired in the middle of their careers that attempt to replicate the pension benefits earned by similarly situated employees who instead worked their entire career at Campbell. In this regard, such executives typically forfeited future pension benefits that they would have earned if they remained with their prior employers. The MCHP also provides benefits in excess of the annual IRC limits applicable to the Qualified Plan. MCHP benefits are offset by benefits paid under the Qualified Plan and the plans prohibit duplication of benefits. BothAll defined benefit pension plans were closed to new participants, effective December 31, 2010. The only NEO who was eligible for the Qualified Plan orand the SERP in fiscal 2020 was Mr. Foley. The only NEO who was eligible for the Qualified Plan and MCHP in fiscal 20192020 was Mr. DiSilvestro.

Although closed to new participants, we maintain the Qualified Plan, the SERP and the MCHP as a means to retain eligible employees and to provide them with a competitive level of pension benefits. The retirement plans provide eligible employees, including the eligible NEOs, the opportunity to plan for future financial needs during retirement. Under the Qualified Plan, the actual pension benefit is calculated on the same basis for all participants, and is based upon the eligible NEO’s:

●	length of service;
●	covered compensation (for example, base salary and annual incentive payments under the AIP); and
●	age at retirement.

Time-lapse restricted share units, performance-restricted share units and stock options, as well as any extraordinary remuneration, are not included in the calculation of the pension benefit under the Qualified Plan. For a more detailed discussion of the retirement plans and the accumulated benefits under these plans, see the 20192020 Pension Benefits table and the accompanying narrative beginning on page 59.

Table of Contents

NEOs who are not eligible to participate in the MCHP because they were hired or promoted into an eligible salary grade on or after January 1, 2011, may be eligible to receive an Executive Retirement Contribution. Messrs. Clouse, Abrams-Rivera,Beekhuizen, Ciongoli and MigniniFoley and Ms. Oswalt were eligible for the Executive Retirement Contribution in fiscal 2019.2020. The Executive Retirement Contribution is a credit to the participant’s Supplemental Retirement Plan account. The amount of the Executive Retirement Contribution is calculated on the same basis for all participants using covered compensation (for example, base salary and annual incentive payments under the AIP) and is subject to vesting criteria. The Executive Retirement Contribution is consistent with our objective to attract and retain experienced senior executives to execute our strategies and was adopted as a means to provide a competitive level of retirement benefits to executives hired following the closure of the MCHP to new participants. For a more detailed discussion of the Executive Retirement Contribution, see the narrative on page 6158 following the 20192020 Pension Benefits table and the 20192020 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table and accompanying narrative beginning on page 62.

Deferred Compensation Plans

The Campbell Soup Company Deferred Compensation Plan and Supplemental Retirement Plan provide an opportunity for eligible U.S.-based participants, including the NEOs, to save for future financial needs. For a more detailed discussion of thedeferredthe deferred compensation arrangements relating to the NEOs, see the 20192020 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table and accompanying narrative beginning on page 62.

Perquisites

Our Personal Choice Program provides quarterly cash payments to certain NEOs in lieu of reimbursements for items such as tax or estate planning services or financial planning services. The Committee believes that these payments are appropriate to reimburse executives for financial and tax planning services or other purposes so that the executives are not distracted from devoting their time and energy to their responsibilities to the Company. We also provide long-term disability protection to NEOs who were hired in 2015 and prior that is in addition to the standard long-term disability coverage provided for other employees. During fiscal 2019,2020, we provided supplemental long-term disability coverage to Messrs. Abrams-Rivera, Ciongoli DiSilvestro and Mignini.DiSilvestro.

During fiscal 2019,2020, we provided relocation benefits to Mr. Clouse, consistent with the terms and conditions of our relocation policies for executives at Mr. Clouse’s level in the organization. We also provided transportation benefits to Mr. Clouse in connection with his relocation to the Camden, New Jersey area, including limited use of a Company-owned vehicle. The Committee believed these benefits were necessary and appropriate to recruit Mr. Clouse and support his transition into the CEO role.

We also provided temporary housing and transportation benefits to Mr. McLoughlin during his time as Interim Presidentand CEO, including use of a Company-owned vehicle and limited use of an aircraft leased by the Company through an arrangement with NetJets, Inc. (“NetJets”) for commuting purposes. Mr. McLoughlin’s permanent residence was outside of the Camden, New Jersey area. Given the interim nature of his role, the Committee believed it was appropriate to pay for temporary housing, and allow Mr. McLoughlin the personal use of a Company-owned vehicle and the use of the Company’s NetJets arrangement to commute to and from his permanent residence.

We provided limited relocation benefits to Mr. Abrams-RiveraBeekhuizen during fiscal 2019,2020, consisting of temporary housing and related benefits that are consistent with the terms and conditions of our relocation policies for executives of Mr. Abrams-Rivera’sBeekhuizen’s level in the organization. Theseorganization related to his relocation to the Philadelphia area. Finally, we provided relocation benefits to Mr. Foley during fiscal 2020, that were providedconsistent with the terms and conditions of our relocation policies for executives of Mr. Foley’s level in the organization in connection with his relocation to the Philadelphia area.

In connection with her employment, we offered Ms. Oswalt a one-time payment of $11,731 for tuition reimbursement and a stipend of $2,500 per week less applicable taxes to assist her with living expenses in the Charlotte area for a limited period and were necessaryof eighteen months. The purpose of the stipend was to accommodateallow Ms. Oswalt to live in the considerable amountCharlotte area until she was in a position to relocate. Because of time Mr. Abrams-Rivera needed to spendthe COVID-19 pandemic, Ms. Oswalt did not use the stipend in Charlotte, North Carolina following the acquisition of Snyder’s-Lance in March 2018.fiscal 2020.

For additional information on all perquisites provided to the NEOs in fiscal 2019,2020, please see the 20192020 Summary Compensation Table and accompanying footnotes, which begin on page 51.53.

Severance Plans

During fiscal 2019,Each executive officer who reports to the Committee adoptedCEO, including each of the NEOs are participants in the Campbell Soup Company Executive Severance Pay Plan (the “Executive Severance Plan”), and designated the CEO and each executive officer who reports to the CEO, including each of the NEOs other than Mr. McLoughlin, as participants in the Executive Severance Plan.. The Executive Severance Plan provides benefits to the NEOs that are substantially consistent with the benefits that were previously provided to such executives under the Campbell Soup Company Severance Pay Plan for Salaried Employees (“Severance Pay Plan”), except that the Executive Severance Plan provides severance and other benefits in the event of an involuntary termination by the Company without cause (as such terms are defined in the Executive Severance Plan). Upon adoption of the Executive Severance Plan, the Company’s executive officers, including the NEOs, were no longer eligible to participate in the Severance Pay Plan.

For the NEOs, thea maximum payment under the Executive Severance Plan isof two times base salary whichif the executive is the same benefit that was previously provided under the Severance Pay Plan.involuntarily terminated without cause. This payment and benefit level was determined primarily by reference to the amount of time customarily required for employees who are involuntarily terminated without cause to find other employment. We believe that, due to the relative scarcity of senior executive roles, employees at higher levels in the organization generally need more time to locate comparable positions elsewhere than employees at lower levels. Assurance of a reasonable measure of financial security in the event of involuntary termination is important to candidates for executive positions, and the extent of the severance benefits offered by Campbell in comparison with those available at other companies is sometimes a significant factor in their evaluations of the attractiveness of opportunities at Campbell.

Mr. MigniniDiSilvestro is currently receiving and Mr. DiSilvestro will receive severance benefits under the Executive Severance Plan. For a more detailed discussion of theirhis severance arrangements,arrangement, see Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control beginning on page 63.

Change in Control Benefits

We have entered into “double-trigger” Change in Control Severance Protection Agreements (“CIC Agreements”) with each of the NEOs. The CIC Agreements provide for severance pay and continuation of certain benefits should an applicable termination of employment occur in connection with and within two years following a change in control. The Committee believes that the CIC Agreements are necessary in order to retain stability in the senior executive team in the event there is a threatened or actual change in control.

Table of Contents

The CIC Agreements’ double-trigger provisions require the occurrence of the following two events in order for an executive to receive payments and benefits: (1) a change in control; and (2) the executive’s employment must be terminated involuntarily and without cause (or terminated voluntarily for good reason) within two years following a change in control.

In March 2010,our current CIC Agreements with the Committee determined that provisions forNEOs provides “gross-up” payments to cover any federal excise taxes owed on change in control-related severance payments and benefits (“Gross-Up Payments”) would be eliminated in any CIC Agreement entered into after January 1, 2011. Mr. DiSilvestro is the only NEO who entered into a CIC Agreement prior to January 1, 2011 that provides a Gross-Up Payment; however, Mr. DiSilvestro’s employment with the Company will end on March 31, 2020. When his employment with the Company ends, his CIC Agreement will terminate.

Following Mr. DiSilvestro’s departure from the Company, we will not have any CIC Agreement with any NEO that provides for Gross-Up Payments.benefits.

For a more detailed discussion of these CIC Agreements, see Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control, beginning on page 63.

We also have change in control provisions in our AIP, our long-term incentive plans and our U.S. retirement plans, and these provisions apply equally to all participants in the plans, including the NEOs.

HOW DO WE MANAGE RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMPENSATION PROGRAM?

Risk Assessment — Incentive Compensation Programs

Each year, the Committee reviews the risk profile of our compensation programs. Management completes, for review by the Committee, an assessment of our compensation programs on a global basis, with a focus on incentive compensation programs. The Committee believes that our compensation programs do not create risks that are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.TheCompany. The Committee’s assessment was based on several factors, including:

●	the compensation governance process that we have established;
●	the relative size of the potential payouts in the aggregate and for any individual;
●	the inclusion of a “cap” on the maximum payouts to any individual;
●	the use of multiple metrics in the respective incentive programs; and
●	the potential for incentive compensation to be recouped pursuant to the Company’s Clawback Policy, as described on page 50.52.

Executive Stock Ownership

We require NEOs to own shares to further align their interests with those of shareholders. It is our policy that NEOs achieve an ownership stake that represents a significant multiple of their base salaries. Until the ownership level is achieved, NEOs must retain at least half of the after-tax value of each equity award in shares of Campbell stock upon the vesting of restricted share units or exercise of options. All NEOs that are currently employed by the Company are compliant with the retention requirements, and all have either met orareor are making meaningful progress toward their respective ownership standard. Progress toward a designated ownership standard is measured annually.

The share ownership requirements for NEOs are listed below. The ownership standard is expressed as a multiple of salary that is determined based on organization level or salary grade. Establishing ownership standards as a multiple of base salary links the program with pay actions (i.e., base salary increases), and ensures that ownership objectives remain competitive. The ownership multiples have been set at market median.

Stock Ownership Requirement as Multiple of Base Salary

Executives may count toward these requirements the value of shares beneficially owned and shares and share units that are deferred and fully vested in the 401(k) plan and other deferredcompensationdeferred compensation programs. Unvested restricted share units and unexercised stock options are not counted in calculating ownership.

Tax Implications

Until Congress amended IRC Section 162(m) under the TCJA,Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“TCJA”), IRC Section 162(m) limited the deductibility of the compensation paid to an NEO (excluding the CFO) to $1 million, except to the extent the compensation was qualified performance-based compensation. Historically, the Committee established performance goals for the AIP and LTI Program that were designed to qualify the annual and long-term incentives awarded to our NEOs as deductible under IRC Section 162(m).

Effective January 1, 2018, the TCJA made significant changes to IRC Section 162(m). As a result, compensation we pay to NEOs in excess of $1.0 million will not be deductible for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2018, subject to limited transition relief for arrangements in place as of November 2, 2017, the scope of which is uncertain. The Company intends to avail itself of this transition relief, to the extent applicable, for compensation paid pursuant to written, binding contracts that were in effect on November 2, 2017.

Table of Contents

Now that the performance-based compensation exception is no longer available, the Company anticipates that it will no longer include IRC Section 162(m)-related limitations or provisions or request shareholder approval for this purpose and may not generally attempt to meet the requirements previouslyincludedpreviously included in our plans related to the exception, however the Company intends to continue its pay for performance philosophy and will continue to provide that a significant portion of compensation paid to our NEOs is subject to performance criteria.

Policies Prohibiting Hedging or Pledging Company Securities

It is our policy to prohibit all directors, officers and employees from hedging or offsetting the economic risk associated with fully owned shares, restricted share units and unexercised stock options that are granted as compensation or held directly or indirectly by the director, officer or employee. The Campbell Soup Company Amended and Restated Insider Trading Policy (“Insider Trading Policy”), which is available on our corporate website atwww.campbellsoupcompany.com, provides that no director, officer (including any executive officer) or employee may purchase securities or other financial instruments that “hedge”, or are designed to “hedge”, the value of any security issued by Campbell, its subsidiaries or affiliates, including phantom stock or stock units. The Insider Trading Policy defines “hedge” as any security transaction that reduces the risk on an already existing investment position in a Campbell security, including the purchase or sale of options,puts, calls, straddles, equity swaps or other derivatives linked to a Campbell security. In addition, in-and-out trading involving holding of securities for brief periods and other speculative transactions in Campbell securities are strictly prohibited by the Insider Trading Policy. Directors and officers of Campbell are prohibited by law from making any short sale (i.e., sale of securities not owned at the time of sale) of Campbell’s stock.

We also have a policy that prohibits pledging of shares by directors and executive officers, with an exception for pledge arrangements that were established prior to September 25, 2013. No executive officers have any existing pledge agreements. One director currently has a grandfathered arrangement. See the footnotes following the Ownership of Directors and Executive Officers table on page 7071 for further information.

Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy

In September 2017, the Board approved the Campbell Soup Company Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy (“Clawback Policy”) to better align our compensation practices with our shareholders’ interests and ensure that incentive compensation is based upon accurate financial information. Our Clawback Policy, which covers all executive officers (including the NEOs), allows for recovery of cash and equity incentive compensation in the event the Company is required to prepare a material financial restatement due to fraud or intentional misconduct.

The Committee has sole discretion to determine whether and how to apply the Clawback Policy. In determining whether to recover compensation, the Committee will consider whether the executive officer received incentive compensation based on the original financial results that was in excess of the incentive compensation that should have been received based on the restated financial results. The Committee will also consider the accountability of the individual executive officer for the restatement, including whether the individual engaged in fraud or intentional misconduct.

COMPENSATION AND ORGANIZATION COMMITTEE REPORT

The Compensation and Organization Committee has reviewed and discussed the foregoing Compensation Discussion and Analysis with management, and based on such reviews and discussions, the Committee recommended to the Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this proxy statement.

Whether, and to what extent, an NEO realizes value with respect to these time-lapse stock awards will depend on the NEO’s continued employment. Mr. DiSilvestro’s time-based stock award will continue to vest in accordance with their original schedule because he qualified for retirement treatment under the terms of the awards.
	A portion of the performance-based stock awards shown above for Mr. DiSilvestro are eligible to vest based on the length of time he was employed during the applicable performance period.

We then resold his former home at our expense. SEC rules require that we include as compensation to Mr. Clouse all expenses we incurred in fiscal 2020 in connection with the sale of his former home, including any difference between the price at which we purchased Mr. Clouse’s home based on the appraised value and the price at which we sold it.

	For units granted in fiscal 2019,2020, dividend equivalents will not be paid on the units during the applicable performance period. Instead, accumulated dividend equivalents will be paid in cash on the restricted share units that vest at the end of the performance period when the grants are paid out.

The Qualified Plan

The Qualified Plan was established and designed to provide funded, tax-qualified pension benefits for eligible U.S.-based employees up to the applicable annual limits allowed under the IRC. The Qualified Plan became a cash balance pension plan on May 1, 1999. Participants who had an accrued benefit as of April 30, 1999 (including Mr. DiSilvestro) are eligible to receive the greater of their pension benefit under the prior benefit formula, which is based on final average pay, or the cash balance benefit. Employees who became participants in the Qualified Plan on or after May 1, 1999 (including Mr. Foley) are instead eligible only for the cash balance benefit. The pension benefits calculated under the prior benefit formula based on final average pay were frozen on April 30, 2014.

In January 2010, the Board took action to close the Qualified Plan to new participants, effective December 31, 2010, and, instead, offer eligible employees new enhancements to our 401(k) plan. This action was consistent with our efforts tomoveto move towards defined contribution plans as the vehicle for offering retirement benefits to its employees. As a result of this action, only Mr.Messrs. DiSilvestro participatesand Foley participated in the Qualified Plan.

A participant in the Qualified Plan receives a plan account consisting of an opening account balance, pay credits and interest credits.

●

Opening Account Balance: If an employee was an active participant on April 30, 1999, he or she received an opening account balance consisting of an age 65 benefit accrued under the Qualified Plan as of December 31, 1998, converted to a lump-sum cash value using an interest rate of 5.25% and the 1983 unisex Group Annuity Mortality table. If an employee became a participant on or after May 1, 1999, the opening account balance is zero.

●

Pay Credits: Pay credits equal a percentage of a participant’s eligible compensation, which is limited by the IRC and described in more detail below in this section. Pay credits are credited as of the last day of each calendar year and made based upon the following formula:

Age as of December 31 of Prior Calendar Year		Pay Credit Rate
Less than 30		4.5%
30 but less than 40		5.5%
40 but less than 50		7.0%
50 but less than 60		8.0%
60 or more		9.0%

If a participant terminates employment before the end of a calendar year, he or she will be credited with pay credits as of the last day of the month in which employment ended.

Interest Credits:Interest is credited to a participant’s cash balance account as of the last day of each calendar year and is based on the average annual yield on the 30-year U.S. Treasury securities for November of the prior calendar year. Interest credits will never be less than 2.5% or more than 10%.

Eligible compensation includes non-deferred base pay and AIP payments, and deferred compensation attributable to pre-tax contributions to the Company’s applicable welfare cafeteria plan and 401(k) plan, respectively. Under the Qualified Plan, with the exception of Mr. DiSilvestro, participating NEOs are not eligible for unreduced benefits before attaining the normal retirement age of 65. The exception isNEOs who participated in the Qualified Plan prior to April 1, 1999 were eligible for an unreduced benefit at age 62. Mr. DiSilvestro whoentered the plan on his hire date of June 3,1996

The Present Value of Accumulated Benefit is the lump-sum present value of the annual pension benefit that was earned as of July 28, 2019August 2, 2020 and that would be payable at age 65. The Present Value of Accumulated Benefits for the Qualified Plan was determined in this manner for Mr. Foley, but not for Mr. DiSilvestro. Because Mr. DiSilvestro had an accrued benefit on April 30, 1999, his benefits are determined using the prior benefit formula of 1% of theirhis Final Average Pay (up to the Social Security Covered Compensation amount) plus 1.5% of theirhis Final Average Pay in excess of the Social Security Covered Compensation times his years of service. Final Average Pay is the average of eligible compensation earned in the highest five calendaryears,calendar years, whether or not consecutive, during the last ten years of employment. Social Security Covered Compensation is the un-indexed average of the taxable wage base in effect for each calendar year during the 35-year period ending with the last day of the calendar year in which the participant ceases to be employed by us. Under the prior benefit formula, if a participant continues to work for Campbell until at least age 55 with five years of service, the benefit is reduced 5% per year for each year that the benefit commences prior to age 62. If the participant terminates employment after attaining age 62, he or she is eligible for an unreduced benefit. Mr. DiSilvestro’s employment terminated prior to attaining the age of 62. The present value of Mr. DiSilvestro’s accumulated benefit is the lump-sum present value of the annual pension benefit that was earned as of July 28, 2019,August 2, 2020, and that would be payable at age 62.

The Supplemental Employees’ Retirement Plan

Supplemental executive retirement plans are intended to restore benefits which cannot be provided under the qualified retirement plan typically due to legal limitations applicable to qualified plans. The SERP is a non-qualified executive retirement plan which is intended to provide the benefits that are not payable under the company’s tax-qualified pension plan based on statutory compensation limits or due to the NEO’s deferral of compensation.

Employees hired prior to January 1, 2011 are eligible for benefits under the SERP. The SERP follows the same formula and rules as the Qualified Plan but applies to compensation which is excluded for Qualified Plan purposes. Compensation which is excluded from the Qualified Plan in calculating benefits are:

●	Annual Incentive Plan and sales incentive plan awards that are deferred, and
●	Paid compensation in excess of the annual IRS compensation limit.

When a participant leaves the company, the lump sum value of the vested SERP benefit is calculated and credited to the Supplemental Retirement Plan. For more information about the Supplemental Retirement Plan, see the narrative on page 62. Once credited to the Supplemental Retirement Plan, the SERP benefit is treated as a non-elective contribution for Supplemental Retirement Plan purposes and paid according to the default distribution schedule unless changed by the participant. Mr. Foley was the only NEO who participated in the SERP in fiscal 2020.

The Mid-Career Hire Pension Plan

The MCHP was established as an unfunded, nonqualified plan for certain U.S.-based senior executives. It was intended to provide a participant who was hired in the middle of his or her career with pension benefits that attempt to replicate the pension benefits earned by a similarly situated employee who instead worked his or her entire career for Campbell. We established the MCHP to attract and retain more experienced executives who typically would have to forfeit future pension benefits from their prior employers if they joined our Company and thus, would otherwise be unable to accumulate a full pension benefit over an entire career with a single employer. The MCHP also provides benefits in excess of the annual IRC limits that are applicable to the Qualified Plan.

The benefit provided under the MCHP is payable as an annuity beginning on the first day of the seventh month following termination of employment. Depending on a participant’s ageandage and years of service, he or she will be eligible to receive an MCHP benefit under either the income replacement formula, or the excess benefit formula. If a participant satisfies the eligibility criteria such that he or she is eligible for an MCHP benefit under both formulas, the formula resulting in the higher benefit will apply.

In May 2010, the Committee determined to close the MCHP to any new participants, effective December 31, 2010, and instead, offer eligible senior executives a new nonqualified defined contribution account, which is further described below under “Executive Retirement Contribution.” Like the closure of the Qualified Plan, this action was consistent with our efforts to move toward defined contribution plans as the vehicle for offering retirement benefits to our employees. As a result of this action, only Mr. DiSilvestro participatesparticipated in the MCHP.

Income Replacement Formula

A participant hired or promoted into an eligible salary grade on or before December 31, 2010 and who is age 55 with at least five years of employment is eligible for an MCHP benefit under the income replacement formula. If such a participant terminates employment on or after age 62, the MCHP benefit is calculated as an annual single life annuity equal to 37.5% of a participant’s Adjusted Final Pay reduced by the Qualified Plan benefit. If the participant terminates before age 62, thesinglethe single life annuity will be reduced by 5% per year for each year that the benefit commences prior to age 62. Mr. DiSilvestro’s employment terminated prior to attaining the age of 62. Adjusted Final Pay is equal to the average of eligible compensation earned in the highest five calendar years, whether or not consecutive, during the last 10 years of a participant’s career as a covered employee. Participants are eligible for unreduced pensions under the income replacement formula beginning at age 62.

Excess Benefit Formula

A participant hired or promoted into an eligible salary grade on or before December 31, 2010 and who had at least three years of service is eligible for an MCHP benefit under the excess benefit formula. If such a participant terminates employment on or after three years of service, the benefit is calculated using the pension formula under the Qualified Plan described above but only on eligible compensation in excess of the annual IRC limit on compensation. Participants shall receive reduced pensions under the excess benefit formula if they begin to receive payments before normal retirement age, which is age 65.

The MCHP defines eligible compensation in the same manner as in the Qualified Plan. In addition, the MCHP provides benefit accruals on base pay or AIP payments that are deferred.

Mr. DiSilvestro is vested in the MCHP benefit using the income replacement formula as he has satisfied the age and service criteria. We do not grant extra years of service for the pension benefit portion of the MCHP benefit. The Present Value of Accumulated Benefit is the lump sum present value of the annual pension benefit that was earned as of July 28, 2019,August 2, 2020, and that would be payable under the MCHP at age 62. A lump-sum form of payment was used for purposes of completing the Pension Benefit Table, although a lump-sum form of payment is not available under the MCHP.

Executive Retirement Contribution

Following the closure of the MCHP to new participants, the Committee implemented an Executive Retirement Contribution for eligible U.S.-based senior executives who were hired on or after January 1, 2011. The Executive Retirement Contribution is intended to attract experienced executives and provideretirementprovide retirement benefits to these executives, who are not eligible to participate in the MCHP. Executive Retirement Contributions are subject to a vesting schedule, which is designed to balance attraction and retention objectives.

We will credit an eligible participant’s Supplemental Retirement Plan account with an Executive Retirement Contribution equal to 10% of the participant’s base salary and annual incentive. The Executive Retirement Contributions are subject to an age-graded vesting schedule and do not begin to vest until the participant has attained age 55 and completed at least five years of service with Campbell. The table below provides details on the vesting criteria:

Vesting Percentage		Criteria
50%		Age 55 and at least 5 years of service
60%		Age 56 and at least 5 years of service
70%		Age 57 and at least 5 years of service
80%		Age 58 and at least 5 years of service
90%		Age 59 and at least 5 years of service
100%		Age 60 and at least 5 years of service

Messrs. Clouse, McLoughlin, Abrams-RiveraBeekhuizen, Ciongoli, Foley and CiongoliMs. Oswalt received an Executive Retirement Contribution in fiscal 2019,2020, and the amounts credited to each of them are unvested. Mr. McLoughlin forfeited the amounts credited to him under the Executive Retirement Contribution when he ceased to serve as Interim President and CEO. Mr. Mignini also received an Executive Retirement Contribution in fiscal 2019 and was70% vested in the amounts credited to him based on his age and years of service when his employment with the Company ended on July 31, 2019. For additional information on the Executive Retirement Contribution, please see the 20192020 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Table and accompanying narrative beginning on page 62.

The accumulated benefit is calculated based on credited service and pay as of July 28, 2019.August 2, 2020. The values reported in the Present Value of Accumulated Benefit column are theoretical and are calculated and presented according to SEC requirements. These values are based on assumptions used in preparing the Company’s consolidated audited financial statements for the year ended July 28, 2019.August 2, 2020. Our pension plans use a different method of calculating actuarial present value for the purpose of determining a lump sum payment, if any, under the plans.

Using applicable plan assumptions, the lump sum present value of the Qualified Plan and the MCHPSERP combined as of July 28, 2019August 2, 2020 and payable as of September 1, 20192020 to Mr. DiSilvestroFoley was $7,027,444.

The Deferred Compensation Plan and the Supplemental Retirement Plan are unfunded nonqualified deferred compensation plans maintained for the purpose of providing our eligible U.S.-based executives and key managers the opportunity to defer a portion of their earned compensation. Currently, participants may defer up to 90% of their annual incentive compensation. The ability of executives to defer all or a portion of their long-term incentive awards was eliminated in fiscal 2009, and the ability to defer base salary was eliminated as of January 1, 2011.

For those individuals whose base salary and annual incentive compensation exceed the IRC indexed compensation limit for the 401(k) plan ($275,000280,000 and $280,000$285,000 for calendar years 20182019 and 2019,2020, respectively) and who participate in the 401(k) plan, we credit such individual’s Supplemental Retirement Plan account with an amount equal to the matching contribution we would have made to the 401(k) plan but for the compensation limit (supplemental 401(k) program). These contributions are fully vested.

We will also credit an eligible participant’s Supplement Retirement Plan account with an Executive Retirement Contribution equal to 10% of the participant’s base salary and annual incentive. Eligible participants are U.S.-based senior executives who were hired on or after January 1, 2011 and who do not participate in the MCHP. The Executive Retirement Contributions do not begin to vest until the participant has attained age 55 and completed at least five years of service with Campbell. For additional information on the Executive Retirement Contribution and vesting criteria, please see the description beginning on page 61.

Severance Policy

We maintain the Campbell Soup Company Executive Severance Plan, which provides severance benefits for the CEO and other executive officers who report to the CEO, including the NEOs. An NEO will receive severance benefits equal to two times the officer’s base salary if the officer’s employment is involuntarily terminated by the Company without cause (as such terms are defined in the Executive Severance Plan). The severance benefits include two years of medical benefits and life insurance unless the officer obtains medical benefits or life insurance from another employer. Change in control severance benefits, which are based on a separate written agreement with each NEO, are described below.

In order to receive severance payments, NEOs must executeaexecute a severance agreement and general release that releases the Company from any claims brought by the officer, contains provisions prohibiting the officer from disparaging us, and incorporates provisions from the officer’s non-competition agreement (signed by all officers at the time they are hired), which prohibits the officer from soliciting our employees to work elsewhere and from competing with us for a period of twelve months following termination. Severance payments are made bi-weekly over a two-year period in accordance with our normal payroll processes.

Mr. MigniniDiSilvestro is currently receiving and Mr. DiSilvestro will receive severance benefits under the Campbell Soup Company Executive Severance Plan.Plan equal to two times his base salary or, $1,406,000, and two years of medical benefits and life insurance.

Change in Control

We have double-trigger CIC Agreements with Messrs. Clouse, Abrams-Rivera,Beekhuizen, Ciongoli and DiSilvestro. We did not enter into a CIC AgreementFoley, and with Mr. McLoughlin due to the interim nature of his role.Ms. Oswalt. The CIC Agreement with Mr. MigniniDiSilvestro expired when he ceased to be employed by the Company. The double-trigger provisions require the occurrence of the following two events in order for an executive to receive payments and benefits:

(1)	a change in control; and
(2)	the executive’s employment must be terminated involuntarily and without cause (or with respect to benefits provided under the CIC Agreements and the LTI Program, terminated voluntarily for good reason) within two years following the change in control.

Generally, a “Change in Control” will be deemed to have occurred in any of the following circumstances:

(i)	the acquisition of 25% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the Company by any person or entity, with certain exceptions for descendants of the Company’s founder;
(ii)	the persons serving as directors of the Company as of a date specified in the agreement, and those replacements or additions subsequently approved by a two-thirds vote of the Board, cease to make up more than 50% of the Board;
(iii)	a merger, consolidation or share exchange in which the shareholders of the Company prior to the merger wind up owning 50% or less of the surviving corporation; or

CIC Agreements entered into prior to January 1, 2011 provideprovided a Gross-Up Paymentgross-up payment if the NEO’s aggregate amount of CIC Payments iswas equal to, or more than, 3.10 times the amount of the NEO’s applicable “base amount” under IRC Section 280G. However, if the NEO’s aggregate amount of CIC Payments is less than 3.10 times the amount of the NEO’s applicable “base amount” under IRC Section 280G, the NEO will not receive Gross-Up Payments and the CIC Payments will be reduced, if the reduction would result in the NEO retaining a greater net after-tax value of such CIC Payments.

In March 2010, the Committee determined that effective for any CIC Agreement entered into after January 1, 2011, the provision for Gross-Up Payments would be eliminated. Mr. DiSilvestro is the only NEO to enter into a CIC Agreement prior to January 1, 2011, and his CIC Agreement does provide for a Gross-Up Payment. However,Since Mr. DiSilvestro’s employment withdeparture from the Company will end on March 31, 2020, and at that point, nonone of the CIC AgreementAgreements with any NEO willNEOs provide for Gross-Up Payments.gross-up payments.

We also have change in control provisions in our AIP, our long-term incentive plans and our U.S. retirement plans and these provisions apply equally to all participants in the plans, including the NEOs. Our long-term incentive plan contains an additional change in control provision that applies in the event of a change in control where the surviving entity does not assume outstanding long-term incentive awards or substitute equivalent equity for the outstanding long-term incentive awards. Under this provision, termination of employment within two years is not required for vesting.

Our long-term incentive plan contains an additional change in control provision that applies in the event of a change in control where the surviving entity does not assume outstanding long-term incentive awards or substitute equivalent equity for the outstanding long-term incentive awards. Under this provision, outstanding long-term incentive awards vest in the same manner as set forth in the table above; however, termination of employment within two years is not required for vesting.

Tables

The following tables display the incremental payments that would be made and the value of equity awards that would vest in the event of termination of employment of an NEO for the reasons listed. If an NEO is eligible to retire, the amounts listed below for voluntary resignation and retirement are the same. Messrs. DiSilvestro and Mignini were eligible to retire on the last day of fiscal 2019. In addition to the amounts in the following tables, the NEOs would be entitled to any vested pensionbenefitspension benefits and any vested amounts in deferred compensation accounts that are disclosed above in the 20192020 Pension Benefits table and the 20192020 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table.

Mr. McLoughlin, our former Interim President and CEO, was not an employee of the Company on the last day of the fiscal year but had returned to the Campbell Board as an independent director. As such, he was not eligible for any post-termination payments.

Assumptions

The specific assumptions that were used to prepare each table are listed directly below each individual table.

Former Executive Officer

As disclosed in the current reports on Form 8-K filed on August 30, 2019 and October 1, 2019, Mr. MigniniDiSilvestro’s role as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company ended on September 30, 2019, and Mr. DiSilvestro ceased to be an executive officer of the Company as of that date. Mr. DiSilvestro ceased to be an employee on March 31, 2020 at which point he received the benefits to which he was entitled under the Executive Severance Benefit Plan commencedas described on page 65. Pursuant to the plan, Mr. DiSilvestro received or will receive the following amounts provided he complies with his non-competition obligations as described on page 65: $1,406,000 of salary continuation and $16,902 of accrued vacation, each of which has been or will be paid in cash, and $23,526 of health and welfare benefits.

Mr. DiSilvestro’s outstanding long-term incentive awards will be treated in accordance with the terms established for involuntary termination without cause. The value of Mr. DiSilvestro’s outstanding long-term incentive awards that will vest and be paid out in accordance with their terms, is $2,814,406 (based on a stock price of $49.57, which was our closing stock price on July 31, 2020, the last trading day of fiscal 2020).

Mr. DiSilvestro’s CIC Agreement with the Company terminated when he left the Company. However, Mr. DiSilvestro’s outstanding long-term incentive awards are subject to the change in control provisions set forth in our 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan. If a qualifying change in control had occurred as of August 2019.2, 2020, and the surviving company did not assume outstanding awards, the value of Mr. DiSilvestro’s outstanding long-term incentive awards would have been $2,477,876 (based on a stock price of $49.57, which was our closing stock price on July 31, 2020, the last trading day of fiscal 2020), and Mr. DiSilvestro would have received $119,692 in dividend equivalent accruals.

CEO Pay Ratio Disclosure

Under Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we are required to provide the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to the annual total compensation of the median-paid employee of the Company (“Median Employee”). Our CEO to median employee pay ratio was calculated in accordance with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, and represents a reasonable estimate.

In fiscal 2019,2020, we re-identified our Median Employee due to the impact of acquisitions and divestitures. To identify our Median Employee, we determined the fiscal 20192020 base salary, our consistently applied compensation measure, for each of our 17,10014,301 full-time, part-time, temporary and seasonal employees, excluding our CEO, Mark A. Clouse, who were employed by us on July 1, 2019.2020. For the fiscal 20192020 calculation, we included employees of the two businesses we acquired during fiscal 2018, Pacific Foods and Snyder’s-Lance, and excluded the employees who were no longer employed by the Company as of July 1, 20192020 as a result of the Campbell Fresh divestitures.International divestitures and the divestiture of the European chips business. No cost of living adjustments were applied. For an employee paid in a currency other than U.S. dollars, we converted annual base salary into U.S. dollars, using exchange rates as of July 1, 2019.2020. Based on this data and process, we determined that our Median Employee was an hourly employee with an annual base salary of $47,216.$51,438. We then calculated the annual total compensation for our Median Employee using the methodology established for disclosing NEO compensation in the Summary Compensation Table, which resulted in our median employee having annual total compensation of $60,357.$65,116.

Because Mr. Clouse’s hire date was January 22, 2019, certain portions of his compensation were annualized to represent his full-year compensation. The annualized fiscal 20192020 compensation for Mr. Clouse, was $8,491,078,$12,439,822, which equals Mr. Clouse’s compensation as reported in the Summary Compensation Table plus an additional amount that reflects the annualizing of his base salary, AIP award and certain other compensation.Table. Therefore, the ratio of our CEO’s annual total compensation to the Median Employee’s annual total compensation was 141191 to 1.

The pay ratio disclosure provided above is a reasonable estimate. Because the SEC rules for identifying the median employee and calculating the pay ratio allow companies to use different methodologies, exemptions, estimates and assumptions, the pay ratio disclosure may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported by other companies.
