(a) Each of our performance shares represent a contingent right to receive one share of the Company's common stock if vesting is satisfied at the end of the three-year performance period. Our performance stock award plans provide that any performance shares earned in excess of the target number of performance shares issued may be settled in cash or additional shares at the discretion of the Human Capital Committee. We have no current plans to settle any additional performance-based restricted shares in the future in cash. During November 2025, 3,599 of the 143,634 performance-based shares issued under the fiscal 2023 performance-based award plan were forfeited by the holders of the awards based on the performance level achieved under the terms of the plan.
