F1 On January 8, 2024, 3,974 of the deferred stock units credited to the reporting person under the Monster Beverage Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan, a sub-plan of the Monster Beverage Corporation 2017 Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors as Amended and Restated on February 23, 2022 (the "Deferral Plan"), were settled for an equal number of shares of the Company's common stock. Each deferred stock unit is economically equivalent to one share of the Company's common stock.
F2 Each restricted stock unit represents either (i) a contingent right to receive one share of the Company's common stock or (ii) a cash amount equal to the number of shares received as of the vesting date.
F3 The restricted stock units vest with respect to 100% of such restricted stock units on the last business day prior to the Company's 2024 annual stockholder meeting, provided that the reporting person continues as a director of the Company through such date.
F4 Not applicable.
F5 No transaction is being reported at this time. This line is only reporting holdings as of the date hereof.
F6 The deferred stock units credited under the Deferral Plan are settled (other than fractional units) in stock and are generally payable in the form elected or provided under the Deferral Plan on the earliest of: (i) a specified date or event designated by the reporting person, (ii) in the calendar year following the year in which the reporting person's service with the Board of Directors of the Company separates, or (iii) upon death, disability or change in control as defined under the Deferral Plan.
