F1Pursuant to the 2012 Stock Incentive and Award Plan, restricted stock units ("RSUs") vest one year after the grant date. Under the Directors Deferred Compensation Sub-Plan, if receipt of shares upon vesting was deferred, RSUs convert to an equal number of share equivalent units. If receipt of shares upon vesting was not deferred, RSUs convert to unrestricted Nordson Common shares on a one-for-one basis.
F2Restricted share units ("RSU") accrued through dividend payments during the vesting period of the RSUs granted on November 3, 2014 pursuant to the 2012 Stock Incentive and Award Plan. The RSUs that accrued through dividend payments vest according to the related RSUs. Each RSU acquired from dividends is the the economic equivalent to one share of Nordson common stock.
F3Share equivalent units acquired through Directors Deferred Compensation Plan. At time of distribution, share equivalent units convert to common shares on a one-for-one basis. Distribution is not permissible until participant ceases to be a Director.
F4Share equivalent units accrued through dividend payments.
