In general, from 0% to 100% of the maximum award will vest on June 10, 2020, based on the extent to which stock price performance goals (based on the highest average market value per share of the Issuer's Common Stock during any period of 30 consecutive trading days) are achieved from June 10, 2018 to June 10, 2020, subject to continuous employment through the vesting date. Vested Performance Units will be paid in Issuer Common Stock based on the highest stock price performance hurdle achieved during the performance period, as set forth in the applicable award agreement.</footnote>
