2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan
Performance Share Unit Award
Schedule of Terms
(Rev. February 2024)
This Schedule of Terms describes the material features of the Participant’s Performance Share Unit Award (the “PSU Award” or the “Award”) granted under the RTX Corporation 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended and restated effective October 1, 2023 (the “LTIP”), subject to this Schedule of Terms, the Award Agreement and the terms and conditions set forth in the LTIP. The LTIP Prospectus contains further information about the LTIP and this Award and is available at www.ubs.com/onesource/RTX.

Certain Definitions
A Performance Share Unit (a “PSU”) represents the right to receive one share of Common Stock of RTX Corporation (the “Common Stock”) (or a cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value thereof). PSUs generally vest and are converted into shares of Common Stock if, and to the extent, the associated pre-established performance targets are achieved and the Participant remains employed by the Company through the end of the applicable performance measurement period, and vesting date (see “Vesting” below), or upon an earlier Termination of Service under limited circumstances that result in accelerated vesting (see “Termination of Service” below). “Company” means RTX Corporation (the “Corporation” or “RTX”), together with its subsidiaries, divisions and affiliates. “Termination Date” means the date a Participant’s employment ends, or, if different, the date a Participant ceases providing services to the Company as an employee, consultant, or in any other capacity. For the avoidance of doubt, absences from employment by reason of notice periods, garden leaves, or similar paid leaves associated with a Termination of Service shall not be recognized as service in determining the Termination Date. All references to termination of employment in this Schedule of Terms will be deemed to refer to “Termination of Service” as defined in the LTIP. “Committee” means the Human Capital & Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Corporation. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Schedule of Terms have the same meaning as defined in the LTIP.
Acknowledgement and Acceptance of Award
The number of PSUs granted under the PSU Award is set forth in the Award Agreement. An LTIP Award recipient (a “Participant”) must affirmatively acknowledge and accept the terms and conditions of the PSU Award within 150 days following the Grant Date. A failure to acknowledge and accept the PSU Award subject to the LTIP and this Schedule of Terms, within such 150-day period will result in forfeiture of the PSU Award, effective as of the 150th day following the Grant Date.
Participants must acknowledge and accept the terms and conditions of this PSU Award electronically via the UBS One Source website at www.ubs.com/onesource/rtx. Participants based in certain countries may be required to acknowledge and accept the terms and conditions of the PSU Award by signing and returning the designated hard copy portion of the Award Agreement to the Stock Plan Administrator. These countries currently include Russia, Turkey, Hungary, and Slovenia.
Vesting
PSU Awards will vest in accordance with the schedule set forth in the Award Agreement, subject to performance relative to pre-established Performance Goals, and the Participant’s continued employment with the Company through the applicable performance measurement period, and vesting date. Potential Performance Goals are provided in the LTIP. PSU Awards may be subject to multiple Performance Goals. The Award Agreement will specify the performance period and vesting date. Please refer to Appendix A for actual Performance Goals for the 2024-2026 performance cycle, including minimum performance required for vesting, range of vesting and relative weighting for each Performance Goal.
1
02/2024
2024 Performance Goals include: (i) diluted earnings per share (“EPS”); (ii) return on invested capital (“ROIC”); (iii) RTX’s total shareowner return (“TSR”) relative to the companies within the S&P 500 Index; and (iv) RTX’s TSR relative to nine aerospace and defense companies (i.e., Honeywell, Boeing, General Electric, Lockheed Martin, Airbus, Northrop Grumman, General Dynamics, L3Harris and Safran) (the “A&D peer companies”). For 2024, all Performance Goals will be measured over the three-year performance period of the Award (as discussed below). In the case that the scheduled vesting date occurs prior to the Committee’s certification of performance results, the actual vesting date of the PSU Award shall be the date of the Committee’s certification of performance results (or if not on a market trading date, the next trading date).
The 2024 PSU Award will include a three-year compound annual growth rate EPS goal. EPS is defined as net income from continuing operations divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding, subject to adjustments for changes in tax laws and/or accounting rules, the impact of acquisitions and divestitures (including acquisition accounting adjustments), restructuring, non-recurring and other significant, non-operational items, non-operating pension and postretirement income or expense, changes in asset or liability valuations of deferred compensation plans recognized in interest income/expense. The Committee may adjust the EPS calculation (positively or negatively) to exclude the impact of certain items unrelated to operational performance. Such adjustment may be made when necessary to maintain the validity of the Performance Goal, as originally formulated.
The 2024 PSU Award will measure TSR over the three-year performance period of the Award. TSR is the percentage change in share price over the cumulative three-year performance period (plus reinvested dividends) divided by the share price at the beginning of the performance period. TSR is calculated using the trailing November/December average adjusted closing share price prior to and at the end of the three-year period, as calculated by Standard & Poor’s. If relative TSR is negative for the three-year performance period, the TSR payout percentage for that metric may not exceed 100% of target, even if relative performance exceeds the target-level Performance Goal. Relative TSR is the rank of RTX’s three-year TSR versus: (i) the companies within the S&P 500 Index at the beginning of the three-year performance period; and (ii) the A&D peer companies. To the extent that such companies are acquired, delist from a stock exchange, or in the case of the S&P 500, companies are removed from the S&P 500 Index during the performance period, these companies will be excluded from the ranking calculation.
The 2024 PSU Award will include a three-year ROIC goal measured on an average quarterly basis over the three-year performance period of the Award. ROIC is based on continuing operations and is defined as the ratio of net operating profit after tax (“NOPAT”) to Invested Capital (total debt less cash plus equity), subject to certain adjustments as detailed below. NOPAT excludes non-controlling interest, non-service pension income/expense, the impact of acquisitions and divestitures (including acquisition accounting adjustments), the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations, material one-time tax charges, restructuring, non-recurring and other significant, non-operational items and changes in tax laws and/or accounting rules. Invested Capital excludes accumulated other comprehensive income, cash and equivalents, acquisition and divestiture borrowings, short-term borrowings, the impact of acquisitions and divestitures and changes in tax laws and/or accounting rules. The Committee may adjust the ROIC calculation (positively or negatively) to exclude the impact of certain items unrelated to
2
02/2024
operational performance. Such adjustment may be made when necessary to maintain the validity of the Performance Goal, as originally formulated.
In the case that that value of the PSU award at vesting is greater than 400% of the value of the PSU award at grant, the performance results shall be reduced so that the value delivered to participants will be no greater than 400% of the grant value. The value of the PSU award at grant is equal to the number of PSUs at target level performance granted to a participant multiplied by the closing stock price of RTX on the grant date. The value of the PSU award at vest is equal to the product of: (i) the number of the PSUs at target level performance granted to a participant; (ii) the Performance Factor certified by the Committee; and (iii) the closing stock price of RTX on the vesting date.
PSUs will be forfeited in the event of a Termination of Service prior to the vesting date, except in certain earlier terminations involving Retirement, Involuntary Termination (Not for Cause), Disability, Change-in-Control Termination or Death (see “Termination of Service” below).
PSUs may also be forfeited and value realized from previously vested PSUs may be recouped by the Company under certain circumstances (see “Forfeiture of Award and Repayment of Realized Gains” below).
No Shareowner Rights
A PSU is the right to receive a share of Common Stock in the future (or a cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value), subject to continued employment, achievement of performance targets, and certain other conditions. The holder of a PSU has no voting, dividend or other rights accorded to owners of Common Stock unless and until PSUs are converted into shares of Common Stock.
Payment / Conversion of PSUs
Vested PSUs will be converted into shares of Common Stock to be delivered to the Participant as soon as administratively practicable following the vesting date and, when the Committee determines if, and to what extent, PSUs have vested as a result of the achievement of Performance Goals. If Performance Goals are not met, the PSUs that do not vest will be cancelled without value. PSUs may instead be paid in cash if the Committee so determines, including where local law restricts the distribution of Common Stock.
Termination of Service
The treatment of PSUs upon Termination of Service depends upon the reason for termination, as detailed in the following sections. PSUs held for less than one year as of the Termination Date will be forfeited, except in the event of Death, Disability, or Change-in-Control Termination, as discussed below.
Absences from employment because of notice periods, garden leaves, or similar paid leaves associated with a Termination of Service will not be recognized as service in determining the Termination Date.
3
02/2024
Retirement. If the Participant’s termination results from Retirement, unvested PSUs held for at least one year as of the Termination Date will remain outstanding and eligible to vest on the originally scheduled vest date, if and to the extent the Committee determines that Performance Goals have been achieved. Upon vest, PSUs will be converted into shares of Common Stock (or cash) to be delivered to the Participant as soon as administratively practicable thereafter. For this purpose, Retirement means either Normal Retirement or Early Retirement as defined below:
•“Normal Retirement” means retirement on or after age 65;
•“Early Retirement” means retirement on or after:
oAge 55, with 10 or more years of continuous service as of the Termination Date; or
oAge 50, but before age 55, and the Participant’s age and continuous service as of the Termination Date adds up to 65 or more (“Rule of 65”).
Service used to determine eligibility for Normal or Early Retirement means “Continuous Service” as defined under the RTX Savings Plan. The calculation to determine Early Retirement will include partial years, rounded down to the nearest full month.
A Participant will not receive Retirement treatment with respect to any Award in the event of involuntary termination by the Company for Cause.
Involuntary Termination for Cause. If the Participant’s termination results from an involuntary termination by the Company for Cause (as defined in the LTIP), unvested PSUs will be forfeited as of the Termination Date regardless of the Participant’s Retirement eligibility. In addition, value realized from previously vested PSUs is subject to repayment in the event of termination for Cause or certain other occurrences (see “Forfeiture of Award and Repayment of Realized Gains” below).
Involuntary Termination. If the Participant’s termination results from an involuntary termination by the Company for reasons other than Cause, unvested PSUs held for at least one year as of the Termination Date will receive pro-rata vesting treatment, subject to the Participant providing the Company with a release of claims against the Company in a form and manner satisfactory to the Company. The pro-rata vesting of a PSU Award held for at least one year will be based on the number of months worked during the vesting period, including partial months, relative to the full vesting period. The pro-rata PSUs will remain outstanding and eligible to vest on the originally scheduled vest date, following the Committee’s certification of performance results, per the terms of the Award. PSUs not deemed eligible to vest under this pro-rata vesting formula will be forfeited as of the Termination Date.
Absences from employment because of notice periods, garden leaves, or similar paid leaves associated with a Termination of Service will not be recognized as service in determining the pro-rata vesting percentage.
4
02/2024
Pro-rata vesting eligibility will occur for involuntary terminations resulting from workforce reductions, location closings, restructurings, layoffs, or similar events, as determined by the Committee or its delegate.
Retirement eligible Participants will be eligible to vest in accordance with the Retirement provisions set forth above. Change-in-Control Terminations are subject to vesting treatment as set forth in the Change-in-Control provisions below. A Participant who is involuntarily terminated for Cause is not eligible for pro-rata vesting of Awards.
Voluntary Termination. A Participant who voluntarily terminates employment (other than for Retirement or a Change-in-Control Termination) prior to the vesting date is not entitled to pro-rata vesting and will forfeit all unvested PSUs.
Disability. If a Participant incurs a Disability (as defined in the LTIP), unvested PSUs will not be forfeited while a Participant remains disabled under a Company-sponsored long-term disability plan. Unvested PSUs will remain eligible to vest on the earlier of (1) the vesting date specified in the Award Agreement; or (2) 29 months following the date a Participant incurs a Disability.
Authorized Leave of Absence. If a Participant is on a Company authorized leave of absence (including Military leave) that is not associated with a Termination of Service, unvested PSUs will remain eligible to vest during the period of leave, subject to the Participant’s continued employment with the Company through the applicable performance measurement period and vesting date and the Committee’s certification of performance results.
Death. If a Participant dies while actively employed by the Company, or on Disability, all PSUs will vest as of the date of death and be converted (at target performance) to shares of Common Stock to be delivered to the Participant’s estate, net of taxes (where applicable), as soon as administratively practicable.
Change-in-Control Termination. If a Participant’s termination results from an involuntary termination by the Company for reasons other than for Cause, or due to the Participant’s voluntary termination for “Good Reason”, in each case, within 24 months following a Change-in-Control in accordance with Section 10(d) of the LTIP (such Termination of Service, a “CIC Termination”), then all PSUs will vest at the greater of: (1) the applicable target level performance as of the Termination Date; or (2) the level of achievement as determined by the Committee not later than the date of the Change-in-Control, taking into account performance through the latest date preceding the Change-in-Control as to which performance can, as a practical matter be determined (but not later than the end of the applicable performance period) and be converted into shares of Common Stock (or cash) to be delivered to the Participant as soon as administratively practicable after the Termination Date, subject to the six-month delay noted below under “Specified Employees,” if applicable.
Specified Employees. If a Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code (i.e., generally the fifty highest paid employees, as determined by the Company) at the time of the Participant’s Termination of Service, and PSUs are accelerated and will vest by reason of such Participant’s Termination of Service (e.g., Change-in-Control Termination), then, to the extent necessary to avoid the application of any additional tax or penalty under IRC Section 409A and consistent with the terms of the Plan, PSUs will be held in
5
02/2024
the Participant’s UBS account and will vest on the first day of the seventh month following the Participant’s Termination Date. Upon vest, PSUs will convert into an equal number of shares of Common Stock (or cash). The value of the PSUs will be determined as of the vest date.
Forfeiture of Award and Repayment of Realized Gains
PSU Awards, including Common Stock delivered for vested PSUs, are subject to the applicable RTX Corporation Clawback Policy, as amended from time to time, available at www.rtx.com. PSUs will be immediately forfeited and a Participant may be obligated to repay to the Company the value realized from previously vested PSUs upon the occurrence of any of the following events:
(i)Termination for Cause (as defined in the LTIP);
(ii)The Committee determines that Award vesting was based on incorrect performance measurement calculations. In such event, vesting (and recoupment, if applicable) will be adjusted consistent with the actual corrected results;
(iii)Within three-years following a Participant’s Termination Date, the Committee determines that the Participant engaged in conduct that could have constituted the basis for a Termination for Cause;
(iv)A restatement of financial results attributable to a Participant’s actions, whether intentional or negligent.
(v)Within twenty-four months following a Participant’s Termination Date, the Participant:
(A)Solicits a Company employee, or individual who had been a Company employee within the previous three months, for an opportunity outside of the Company; or
(B)Publicly disparages the Company, its employees, directors, products, or otherwise makes a public statement that is materially detrimental to the interests of the Company or such individuals;
(vi) Except where prohibited by law, including the state of California, at any time during the twelve-month period following a Participant’s Termination Date, the Participant becomes employed by, consults for, or otherwise renders services to any business entity or person: (A) engaged in activities that compete with the Corporation or the business unit that employed the Participant; or (B) that is a material customer of, or a material supplier to, the Corporation or the business unit that employed the Participant, unless, in either case, the Participant has first obtained the consent of the Chief Human Resources Officer or her or his delegate. This restriction applies to competitors, customers, and suppliers of each business unit that employed the Participant within the two-year period prior to the Termination Date. The determination of status of competitors, customers, and suppliers will be made by the Chief Human Resources Officer (or her or his delegate) in her or his sole discretion.
6
02/2024
(vii) Negligent conduct injurious to the Company, including negligent supervision of a subordinate whose action requires a restatement of financial results, or other significant harm to the Company as determined by the Committee; or
(viii) A Participant’s misappropriation of RTX Intellectual Property or violation of his/her Intellectual Property (IP) Agreement.
In addition, the Committee reserves the right to require repayment of all or any portion of a PSU Award under item (iv) above, without regard to whether a restatement is attributable to the Participant’s actions, as appropriate and determined at the Committee’s sole discretion.
The Participant agrees that the foregoing restrictions are reasonable and that the value of the LTIP awards is reasonable consideration for accepting such restrictions and forfeiture contingencies. However, if any portion of this section is held by competent authority to be unenforceable, this section shall be deemed amended to limit its scope to the broadest scope that such authority determines is enforceable, and as so amended shall continue in effect. The Participant acknowledges that this Award shall constitute compensation in satisfaction of these covenants. Further details concerning the forfeiture of awards and the obligation to repay gains realized from LTIP awards are set forth in Section 14(i) of the LTIP, available at www.ubs.com/onesource/rtx, and the applicable RTX Clawback Policy, available at www.rtx.com.
Adjustments
If the Corporation engages in a transaction affecting its capital structure, such as a merger, distribution of a special dividend, spin-off of a business unit, stock split, subdivision or consolidation of shares of Common Stock, or other events affecting the value of Common Stock, PSU Awards may be adjusted as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion.
Further information concerning capital adjustments is set forth in Section 3(e) of the LTIP, available at www.ubs.com/onesource/rtx.
Change-in-Control
In the event of a Change-in-Control or restructuring of the Company, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, take certain actions with respect to outstanding Awards to assure fair and equitable treatment of LTIP Participants. Such actions may include the acceleration of vesting, canceling an outstanding Award in exchange for its equivalent cash value (as determined by the Committee), or providing for other adjustments or modifications to outstanding Awards or Performance Goals, as the Committee may deem appropriate. Further details concerning Change-in-Control are set forth in Section 10 of the LTIP, available at www.ubs.com/onesource/rtx.
Awards Not to Affect Certain Transactions
PSU Awards do not in any way affect the right of the Corporation or its shareowners to effect: (a) any adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Corporation’s capital or business structure; (b) any merger or consolidation of the Corporation; (c) any issue of bonds,
7
02/2024
debentures, shares of stock preferred to, or otherwise affecting the Common Stock of the Corporation or the rights of the holders of such Common Stock; (d) the dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation; (e) any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business; or (f) any other corporate act or proceeding.
Taxes / Withholding
The Participant is responsible for all income taxes, social insurance contributions, payroll taxes, payment on account or other tax-related items attributable to any Award (“Tax-Related Items”). The Fair Market Value of Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date the taxable event occurs will be used to calculate taxable income realized from the PSUs. The provisions of Section 14(d) (Required Taxes) of the LTIP apply to this Award. The Company shall have the right to deduct directly from any payment or delivery of shares due to a Participant or from Participant’s regular compensation to effect compliance with all Tax-Related Items, including withholding and reporting with respect to the vesting of any PSU. Acceptance of an Award constitutes affirmative consent by Participant to such reporting and withholding as determined by the Company in its sole discretion. The Participant acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company. Further, if the Participant has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the date of grant and the date of any relevant taxable event, the Participant acknowledges that the Company may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. In those countries where there is no withholding on account of such Tax-Related Items, Participants must pay the appropriate taxes as required by any country where they are subject to tax. In those instances where Company is required to calculate and remit withholding on Tax-Related Items after shares have already been delivered, the Participant shall pay the Company any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company is required to pay. The Company may refuse to distribute an Award if the Participant fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with Tax-Related Items.
If the Participant is a Section 16 officer of the Company under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, at the time that a taxable event occurs, then the Company shall satisfy the Participant’s withholding obligation as follows: (i) with respect to FICA taxes due and owing prior the vesting of the PSU Award; and (ii) with respect to any other Tax-Related Items, the Company shall satisfy the withholding obligation by withholding shares of Common Stock converted from PSUs under the Award having a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding equal to the amount required to be withheld for tax purposes (calculated using the minimum statutory withholding rate, except as otherwise approved by the Committee, or its delegate). Provided for both items (i) and (ii) above, the Committee retains the right to determine an alternative method of withholding for the Participant, at its sole discretion, provided in all cases, such determination shall be made by the Committee prior to the Tax-Related Items withholding event.

Deferral of Gain (U.S. based executives)
If an opportunity to defer PSUs is offered for this 2024 grant, a Participant who is qualified to participate in the Company’s Performance Share Unit Deferral Plan may irrevocably elect to
8
02/2024
defer the conversion of vested PSUs into shares of Common Stock to a date that is at least five years after the scheduled vesting date. The election to defer the conversion of shares must be made no later than the end of the second year of the performance measurement period, or such earlier date as may be specified by the Committee. Vested PSUs subject to a deferral election will be converted to unfunded deferred share units (“DSUs”) that will convert into shares of Common Stock on the distribution date as specified in the deferral election and the Performance Share Unit Deferral Plan. DSUs will be credited with dividend equivalent units when the Company pays a dividend to shareholders, which will be deferred and invested in additional DSUs. Under U.S. income tax law, a Participant will generally not be taxed until the DSUs are converted to shares of Common Stock and distributed. DSUs will not be funded by the Company. In this regard, a Participant’s rights to DSUs are those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company. Details of the deferral of PSUs into DSUs will be provided with election materials. The opportunity to make such an election is subject to the discretion of the Committee and changes in Federal tax law. The Committee reserves the right to determine whether a deferral election will be offered to Participants with respect to an annual award of PSUs, and to discontinue offering PSU deferral elections at any time for any reason it deems appropriate in its sole discretion.
Nonassignability
No assignment or transfer of any right or interest of a Participant in any PSU Award, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, is permitted except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any other attempt to assign such rights or interest shall be void and without force or effect.
Nature of Payments
All Awards made pursuant to the LTIP are in consideration of services performed for the Company. Any gains realized pursuant to such Awards constitute a special incentive payment to the Participant and will not be taken into account as compensation for purposes of any of the employee benefit plans of the Company. Awards are made at the discretion of the Committee. Receipt of a current Award does not guarantee receipt of a future Award.
Right of Discharge Reserved
Nothing in the LTIP or in any PSU Award shall confer upon any Participant the right to continued employment or service for any period of time or affect any right that the Company may have to terminate the employment of any Participant at any time for any reason.
Administration
The Board of Directors of the Corporation has delegated the administration and interpretation of the awards granted pursuant to the LTIP to the Human Capital & Compensation Committee. The Committee establishes such procedures, as it deems necessary and appropriate to administer Awards in a manner that is consistent with the terms of the LTIP. The Committee has, consistent with its charter and subject to certain limitations, further delegated to the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Human Resources Officer, the Corporate Vice President, Total Rewards (or successor
9
02/2024
roles, and to such subordinates as he or she may further delegate) the authority to grant, administer, interpret, freeze, and clawback Awards, provided that, such delegation will not apply with respect to employees of the Company who are covered under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Awards to these employees will be granted, administered, and interpreted exclusively by the Committee. The Committee’s decision or that of its delegate on any matter related to an Award shall be binding, final, and conclusive on all parties in interest.
Data Privacy
The Corporation maintains electronic records for the purpose of administering the LTIP and individual Awards. In the normal course of plan administration, electronic data may be transferred to different sites within the Company and to outside service providers. Acceptance of an Award constitutes consent by the Participant to the collection, use, processing, transmission and holding of personal data, in electronic or other form, as required for the implementation, administration, and management of this Award and the LTIP by the Company or its third-party administrators within or outside the country in which the Participant resides or works. All such collection, use, processing, transmission and holding of data will comply with applicable privacy protection requirements. If you do not want to have your personal data shared, you may opt out of participation in the LTIP programs.
Company Compliance Policies
Participants must comply with the Company’s Code of Conduct and Company policies and procedures. Violations can result in the forfeiture of Awards and the obligation to repay previous gains realized from LTIP Awards. The Company’s Code of Conduct and Company policies are available online at http://epolicy.corp.ray.com/epolicy/. The Company is also required to be compliant in those jurisdictions where we do business. While the LTIP, Schedule of Terms, and Award Agreement are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, RTX employees live and work globally in countries throughout the world. Where the Committee, or its delegate, determines in its sole discretion that issuance or vesting of an award, including delivery of shares or cash, cannot be made in compliance with country, provincial, or local laws, the Committee reserves the right to suspend, modify or cancel an award in order to comply with the applicable law.
Interpretations

This Schedule of Terms and each Award Agreement are subject in all respects to the terms of the LTIP, available at www.ubs.com/onesource/rtx. In the event that any provision of this Schedule of Terms or any Award Agreement is inconsistent with the terms of the LTIP, the terms of the LTIP shall govern. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings as defined in the LTIP.

Appendix A: 2024 PSU Performance Goals
The table below illustrates the Performance Goals for the 2024-2026 performance cycle.
Threshold, target and maximum Performance Goals each have a corresponding payout percentage, and each metric is measured and funded independently. Performance below the threshold level will result in 0% payout, while performance above the maximum level cannot exceed the maximum payout level. Performance that falls between the threshold, target and maximum levels will results in a payout that is based on a straight line interpolated between the applicable levels.
The final Performance Factor will be based on the Company’s actual achievement against these Performance Goals at the conclusion of the award’s performance cycle and will equal the sum of the four payout percentages after weighting is applied.
Metric | Weight | Performance Goals | Payout (as a % of target) | ||||||||||||||||||||
Threshold | Target | Maximum | Threshold | Target | Maximum | ||||||||||||||||||
Adjusted EPS (1) | 35% | 6.0% | 11.8% | 15.6% | 25% | 100% | 200% | ||||||||||||||||
ROIC (1) | 35% | 7.0% | 8.1% | 8.9% | 25% | 100% | 200% | ||||||||||||||||
