The additional up to 50% of the Grant 1 Eligible Shares are eligible to be earned at the end of the fiscal 2019 provided that the Reporting Person is employed by the Issuer on March 29, 2019. The performance criterion was partially satisfied, resulting in 414,287 shares becoming Grant 1 Eligible Shares for fiscal 2018 and were earned by the Reporting Person. Additionally, 30,160 shares became Grant 1 Eligible Shares for fiscal 2019.
