 Exhibit A 

Management Objectives 
 1.
For purposes of this Award Agreement, “Management Objectives” shall mean the Company’s Total Shareholder Return for the Performance Period relative to the Total Shareholder Return of the Peer Group for the Performance Period.
For purposes of this Exhibit A: 
  

	 	(a)	“Market Value per Share” means the weighted average closing price of a Common Share or a share of common stock of the Peer Group member, as applicable, as reported on the NASDAQ Stock Market, LLC during
the twenty (20) trading days preceding (and inclusive of) the date of determination of the Total Shareholder Return; provided, however, that in the event the Performance Period ends early as a result of a Change in Control, or
termination of service due to the Participant’s death or Disability, “Market Value per Share” will mean the weighted average closing price of a Common Share or a share of common stock of the Peer Group member, as applicable, of
the as reported during the twenty (20) trading days preceding (and exclusive of) the date of such Change in Control or termination of service. The Market Value per Share will be equitably adjusted for stock splits and other similar corporate
actions affecting the Common Shares or the common stock of the Peer Group member, as applicable. 

  

	 	(b)	“Peer Group” means the following companies: 

  

							
	Flotek Industries, Inc.	  	Landec Corporation	  	Methode
Electronics, Inc	  	NN, Inc.
				
	Innospec Inc.	  	Tredegar Corporation	  	Chase Corporation	  	Astec Industries, Inc.
				
	WD-40 Company	  	Zep Inc.	  	CTS Corporation	  	Orbotech Ltd
				
	Koppers Holdings Inc.	  	Futurefuel Corp.	  	Littlefuse, Inc.	  	Columbus McKinnon
Corporation
				
	Kraton Performance Polymers, Inc.	  	Omnova Solutions Inc.	  	The Gorman-Rupp
Company	  	LSB Industries, Inc.

 If a company within the Peer Group goes through bankruptcy reorganization during the Performance Period and
its equity is eliminated (or if a company within the Peer Group ceases to exist during the Performance Period), it will be deemed to be rated last of all companies in the Peer Group for calculation purposes. If the company in bankruptcy continues to
have its equity traded through the end of the Performance Period, its Total Shareholder Return will be measured over the entire Performance Period and will be included in the final calculation. 







 If a company within the Peer Group is purchased by another company that is also within the Peer
Group, the surviving company will be tracked and included in the final calculation. If a company within the Peer Group is purchased by another company that is not within the Peer Group, it will cease to be tracked and will be excluded from the final
calculation. 
  

	 	(c)	“Total Shareholder Return” means the amount obtained by dividing (1) the sum of (a) the amount of dividends paid on the Common Shares or on the common stock of the Peer Group member, as
applicable, with respect to the Performance Period, assuming dividend reinvestment, and (b) the difference between the Market Value per Share at the end and beginning of the Performance Period, by (2) the Market Value per Share at the
beginning of the Performance Period. 

 2. At the end of the Performance Period, the number of Restricted Shares, if any, that
will vest will be determined by: (i) determining the Company’s Total Shareholder Return percentile quartile for the applicable Performance Period, as set forth in the left hand column of the table below (expressed in terms of the
Company’s ranking within the Peer Group based upon the Company’s Total Shareholder Return relative to the Total Shareholder Return of the Peer Group for the Performance Period) and (ii) multiplying the number of Restricted Shares
granted pursuant to this Award Agreement by the percentage in the right hand column of the table below that corresponds to such percentile quartile.
