The Performance RSU is scheduled to vest over four years, with 25% vesting on each anniversary of the date of grant, such that the Performance RSU will be fully vested on March 15, 2019; provided, however, that no portion of the Performance RSU may vest unless the average of the closing prices of the Issuer's ordinary shares (as reported on the stock exchange on which the shares are listed), over a twenty consecutive trading day period is equal to or greater than 120% of the fair market value of the Issuer's ordinary shares on the date of grant (the "Price Contingency"). On April 1, 2016, the Price Contingency was met, and on March 15, 2017, the second 25% of the Performance RSU vested.
