Peer Groups used for purposes of this Exhibit A shall be those companies included in each of the Peer Groups (the “Peer Group”) and the Rxxxxxx 2000 Index (the “2000 Group”) on the first day of the Performance Period, subject to change as described below. The Peer Group shall be weighted as 60% of the final vesting calculation described below, and the 2000 Group shall be weighted at 40% of the final vesting calculation described below. Peer Group selection will be determined by the Committee using [TBD], or such similar Peer Group designated by the New York Stock Exchange, or, if no such designation exists, such other recognized independent third parties that provide such peer group information. The Committee may add additional peers to the group. If a company in a Peer Group experiences a bankruptcy event during the Performance Period, the company will remain in the Peer Group and it stock price will continue to be tracked for purposes of the Total Shareholder Return calculation. If the company is subsequently acquired or goes private, the provisions below will apply. If the company liquidates, the company will remain in the Peer Group and its Ending Stock Price will be reduced to zero. If a company in a Peer Group is acquired by another company in the same Peer Group, the acquired company will be removed from the Peer Group and the surviving company will remain in the Peer Group. If a company in Peer Group is acquired by a company not in the same Peer Group, the acquired company will remain in the Peer Group, and its Ending Stock Price will be equal to the value per share of the consideration paid to the shareholders of the acquired company in the transaction. The surviving company in such transaction will not be added to the Peer Group. If a company in a Peer Group ceases to be a public company due to a going private transaction, the company will remain in the Peer Group, and its Ending Stock Price shall be equal to the value per share of the consideration paid to the shareholders of the target company in the transaction. Changes in the 2000 Group during the Performance Period will not affect the Peer Groups, except as described above.
