Explanation of responses
- F1Each performance-based restricted stock unit, or PRSU, represents a contingent right to receive one share of Issuer common stock.
- F2The PRSUs will vest depending on Issuer's total shareholder return ("TSR") over the three-year period from the grant date (the "Performance Period"), relative to companies in the NASDAQ-100 Index as of the grant date (the "Index Group"). If Issuer's TSR over the Performance Period is at the 60th percentile when ranked against the Index Group TSRs, 100% of the target number of 191,382 shares will vest. For every percentile by which Issuer's TSR ranking within the Index Group exceeds the 60th percentile, shares vesting will increase by 3 and 1/3%, up to a maximum payout of 200% of target if Issuer's TSR ranking is at the 99th percentile. For every percentile by which Issuer's TSR ranking within the Index Group is below the 60th percentile, shares vesting will decrease by 2 and 22/39%, with no payout if Issuer's TSR ranking is below the 30th percentile. If Issuer's absolute TSR over the Performance Period is negative, the number of shares vesting will not exceed 100% of target.
- F3Option vests over four years at the rate of 25% on November 22, 2016, the first anniversary of the holder's date of grant, with the balance vesting in equal monthly installments over the remaining 36 months.
