(a) Excludes DSUs, which are discussed under Non-Employee Plan.

(b) Except for the 2013 LTI award, represents target number of PSUs granted, and does not reflect potential increases or decreases that could result from the final outcome of the performance goals for the respective awards, which is determined in the quarter after the applicable performance period ends.

(c) The performance period for the 2013 LTI awards ended December 31, 2015. The number of earned PSUs was based on the results of the 2013 performance goals adjudicated in the first quarter of 2016 by the CMRC. This resulted in additional units being granted, but no additional expense was recognized for these units.

(d) At December 31, 2016, the total unrecognized compensation cost (net of expected forfeitures) for the unvested PSUs was $163 million and the weighted-average and expected period of years over which that cost is expected to be recognized are 1.26 years and 4 years.
