Performance Stock Units

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, Holdings granted performance awards in the form of performance stock units (“PSU”). Each PSU that vests will result in the issuance of one share of Holdings’ common stock. The maximum number of shares issuable under the performance awards granted during 2024 is approximately 1.15 shares of Holdings' common stock. The grant date fair value for the units issued was determined based on the closing price of Holdings' common stock on the date of grant, which was $16.43 per share. The performance metrics for these performance awards are based upon three-year aggregate consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and consolidated cash flows, and payout levels are determined based upon the achievement of pre-established criteria for these metrics as defined in the award agreement. Based upon the terms of the award agreement, PSUs vest based on a combination of performance factors and continued service. The performance measurement period for the PSUs is three years, January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2026 and the service period ends on February 19, 2027. Below is a summary of the performance metrics and measurement period for these performance awards:
