(a)	These shares were granted in July 2024.

(b)	The shares underlying the RSUs are excluded from the shares shown as outstanding on the balance sheet until they have vested and been issued.

(c)	Such shares were issued in August 2024.

(d)	Such shares were issued in August 2023.

(e)	Such shares were forfeited due to the retirement of an executive officer before the completion of the applicable three-year performance cycle.

(f)	Of the 40,889 shares (i) 39,811 shares were not earned because the applicable market condition had not been satisfied and (ii) 1,078 shares were forfeited due to the retirement of an executive officer before the completion of the applicable three-year performance cycle.

(g)	Generally, the recipient must maintain a relationship with the Company during the applicable three-year performance cycle.

(h)

RSUs vest upon satisfaction of metrics related to average annual total stockholder return (“TSR Metric”) and average annual return on capital (“ROC Metric”; together with the TSR Metric, the “Metrics”) and are issued to the extent the Compensation Committee determines that the Metrics with respect to the vesting of such shares have been satisfied.

The specific metrics and other material terms and conditions of the RSUs are as follows:


						Performance Criteria (a)
Year RSU Granted		Metric		Weight		Minimum		Maximum
2021 - 2024 (b)(c)(d)		ROC Metric (e)		50%		Average annual of at least 6.0%		Average annual of at least 8.75%
		TSR Metric (f)		50%		Average annual of at least 6.0%		Average annual of at least 11.0%

(a)	If the average annual ROC or TSR falls between the applicable minimum and maximum performance criteria, a pro-rata portion of such units, as applicable, vest.

(b)	Such RSUs are not entitled to voting rights.

(c)

The holders of such RSUs receive an amount equal to the dividends that would have been paid on the underlying shares had such shares been outstanding during the three-year performance cycle. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company accrued an aggregate of $328,000 and $450,000 of dividend equivalents, respectively, for the unvested RSUs based on the number of shares that would have been issued, underlying such RSUs, using performance and market assumptions determined at such dates.

(d)	In August 2024, the Company paid the holders of the 2021 RSU grant an aggregate of approximately $215,000 with respect to the dividend equivalent rights on the vested 39,811 shares.

(e)	The ROC Metrics meet the definition of a performance condition. Fair value is based on the market value on the date of grant. For ROC Awards, the Company recognizes expense only when performance conditions are expected to be met; such performance assumptions are re-evaluated quarterly.

(f)

The TSR Metrics meet the definition of a market condition. A third-party appraiser prepares a Monte Carlo simulation pricing model to determine the fair value of such awards, which is recognized ratably over the three-year service period. For the 2024 TSR awards, the per unit or share fair value was estimated using the following assumptions: an expected life of three years, a dividend rate of 7.03%, a risk-free interest rate of 4.26% - 5.17% and an expected volatility of 22.79% - 24.80%.
