F2 Stock Units are accrued under the Issuer's Amended and Restated 2012 Omnibus Stock Incentive Compensation Plan (as approved by stockholders on January 5, 2022) ("Stock Plan") and are payable in shares upon retirement in either lump sum or five annual installments. Accruals resulted from the Reporting Person's election to receive a portion of annual director fees payable on January 5, 2022 in the form of deferred stock units.
F3 Deferred Restricted Stock Units (DSUs) issued pursuant to the Issuer's Stock Plan. The DSUs resulted from the Reporting Person's election to receive a portion of annual director fees in the form of a deferred stock award. The DSUs will vest in full on the first anniversary of the grant date, or, if earlier, the date of the next subsequent annual meeting of the Issuer's stockholders following the grant date. Once vested, DSUs will be payable upon retirement in either lump sum or five annual installments.
