Explanation of Responses: |
1. Performance-based restricted stock units ("PVUs") granted on September 15, 2015 were subject to achievement of a pre-established performance goal over the one-year performance period ending at the end of fiscal 2015. The Compensation and Leadership Development Committee of the Issuer's Board of Directors certified the Issuer's achievement of the performance goal and determined the number of PVUs that were earned. The PVUs vest over a three-year period, with 33% vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date, another 33% vesting on the second anniversary of the grant date, and 34% vesting on the third anniversary of the grant date, in each case subject to the continued employment with the Issuer. |
2. Includes 30,761 unvested time-vested restricted stock units ("RSUs"). RSUs represent the right to receive one share of common stock for each RSU upon vesting. RSUs vest over a three-year period, with 33% vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date, another 33% vesting on the second anniversary of the grant date, and 34% vesting on the third anniversary of the grant date, subject to continued employment with the Issuer. |
