(2) At the end of Year 1, as to 50% of this PSU award (Part 1), the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors determined, on 9/15/2023, that 101.8% of the performance conditions against the FY23 ARR targets were met resulting in an increase of 36 PSUs earned by the Reporting Person in addition to the original grant amount of 4,130. 33% of Part 1 vested immediately thereafter. 33% of Part 1 vested at the end of Year 2 (9/15/2024), and 33% of Part 1 will vest at the end of Year 3 (9/15/2025). At the end of Year 3 (9/15/2025), 50% of the PSU award (Part 2) will be determined based on performance against the FY25 ARR targets.
