The reporting person may receive a number of shares of PepsiCo Common Stock from 0% to 200% of the PSUs granted, depending on the performance level achieved.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">This number represents the PSUs granted in March 2018 that were canceled at the end of the performance period because the applicable performance targets were not met.</footnote>
