(d)Settlement of RSU Award. If RSUs vest pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3, then no later than the applicable Settlement Date, the Company shall deliver to you or your legal representative either (i) one Share or (ii) a cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value determined as of the Settlement Date of one Share, in each case, for each RSU that has been deemed earned and vested based on the Earned Amount in accordance with the terms of this Award Agreement; provided, that the Company shall have sole discretion to determine whether to settle such RSUs in Shares, cash or a combination thereof.

The level of achievement of each Continuous Performance Goal shall be measured over the Performance Period as described below.

•Company’s Relative Total Shareholder Return (Index) as multiplied by the Company’s Relative Total Shareholder Return (LTL Peers) . The calculation of the number of Earned PSUs shall equal the product of (1) the percentage of shares earned as a percentage of target as computed based on the level of achievement of the Company’s Relative Total Shareholder Return (Index) as set forth in clause (i) below multiplied by (2) the multiplier based on the level of achievement of the Company’s Relative Total Shareholder Return (LTL Peers) as calculated in accordance with clause (ii) below.

i.Target Performance Goal: The Company’s TSR ranking in the Index is at the 67th percentile with each company in the Index, including the Company, ranked based on its multi-year TSR at the completion of the Performance Period (in the order of lowest to highest TSR).

*Linear interpolation shall be applied between 67th Percentile and
83rd Percentile

ii.Multiplier: The multi-year TSR of the Company during the Performance Period outperforms the multi-year LTL Peer Group TSR as calculated during the Performance Period by 200 basis points.

*Linear interpolation shall be applied between 200 bps and 500bps

(2)Certain Definitions.
