Based upon actual results to date, the Company is currently accruing compensation expense for these PSAs.

The PSAs granted in fiscal 2020 will vest if the Company achieves performance-based target objectives relating to average return on invested capital, average annual sales and average annual Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) (as defined in the PSA Grant Agreement), in the cumulative three fiscal year period ending June 30, 2022.
