This is awarded to military personnel for exceptionally meritorious conduct in the performance of outstanding service but to a lesser extent not warranting the award of the Degree of Officer or for meritorious service of more value than that for which the Military Merit Medal is usually awarded; and to civilians for outstanding service to the Philippines that merits official recognition by the government but to a lesser category not warranting the award of the Degree of Officer.
