Each Restricted Stock Unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of F5, Inc. Common Stock on the vest date.

Footnote F3

This November 1, 2023 award of service-based Restricted Stock Units vests in twelve equal quarterly increments beginning February 1, 2024.

Concurrent with the award of 6,284 service-based Restricted Stock Units, the Company granted the reporting person additional Restricted Stock Units, the number of which that can be earned will be based on performance targets ("Performance RSUs").
