at the end of the Performance Period has increased by an 8% compounded annual

growth rate, and 100% of the award vesting if the share price has increased by a

16% compound annual growth rate. Should the share price increase between 8% and

16%, awards will vest on a linear sliding scale between 25% and 100%.
