iscretionary deferral varies by income, production levels, and other factors. Stock units are issued to participants based upon the fair market value of our common stock on the date of issuance. PRSUs become payable 80% after 4 years and 20% after 5 years. Other stock units received on a mandatory basis vest ratably on an annual basis over a 5-yearperiod of continued employment following the date of issuance. Vesting based on continued employment may be eliminated, however, upon a termination without cause if the holder of the award refrains from engaging in a competitive activity or a soliciting activity prior to the relevant vesting date of such award. Debentures are promises by the Company to pay cash in the future, with interest, conditioned on continuing employment and other terms. The debentures granted with respect to 2024 vest ratably on an annual basis over a 5-yearperiod of continued employment after the grant and accumulate interest at a rate of 3% per annum. Restricted cash is delivered upon grant but becomes earned ratably over a 5-yearvesting period, supported by a grantee promise to repay the unearned portion of delivered cash if continuing employment and other conditions cease to exist during vesting. Debentures and restricted cash are shown in the Bonus column in the 2024 Summary Compensation Table.
