ultimately became entitled to receive at the time of vesting ranged from 0% to 200% of the target number of PSUs granted, subject to the achievement of a pre-established performance metric. The vesting of these PSUs was based on NYMT's total stockholder return for the
three years ended December 31, 2023.</footnote>
