(1) Each performance-based restricted stock unit ("PSU") represents a contingent right to receive one share of common stock of Yext, Inc. (the "Company").
(2) A target number of 625,000 PSUs will be eligible to vest based upon achievement of a combination of performance as measured using a measurement in growth of the Company's reported ARR and a "Rule of 40" summation of the percentage growth in the Company's reported ARR and Adjusted EBITDA Margins over two performance periods, fiscal year 2027 and fiscal year 2028. 50% of the total target PSUs will be eligible to be earned in each performance period, and the maximum number of PSUs that may become eligible to vest in connection with achievement in excess of the target shall be no more than 200% of the target number of PSUs. The PSUs that become eligible to vest with respect to a performance period will vest on March 20 following the end of that performance period, subject to reporting person's continued service through that date.
(3) A target number of 625,000 PSUs will become eligible to vest based on the Company's total shareholder return during each of the following performance periods (each, a "Performance Period") relative to the total shareholder return of companies in the S&P Software and Services Select Index: (i) March 31, 2026 to March 31, 2027; and (ii) March 31, 2026 to March 31, 2028. PSUs that become eligible to vest based on performance for a Performance Period vest on June 20 following the applicable Performance Period, subject to continued service to the Company through the vesting date. The total number of PSUs that will be eligible to vest range from 0% to 200% of the target number of PSUs.
