RSUs will normally vest on the third anniversary of grant conditional upon the relevant individual's continued employment and the Committee's determination that the vesting outcome appropriately reflects the Company's underlying performance and progress during the relevant vesting period.

PSUs

The Committee has granted PSUs at 100% of salary for the CEO and 75% of salary for the CFO.

· strategic/operational targets (25%).

DSUs
