The stretch operating plan number represents 200% of the target compensation plan payout of 2,800 shares. If a pre-established threshold is achieved, the shares earned will vest as to 100% on March 20, 2019, such that the shares are fully vested on approximately the three (3) year anniversary of the date of grant.
