The PBRSUs convert into Park common shares on a one-for-one basis. The PBRSUs earned based on the performance level achieved are also subject to a service-based vesting requirement with 50% vesting (resulting in the right to receive the 1,338.89 common shares shown in the second row in Table I) on the 2015 PBRSU Certification Date and the other 50% to vest on the first anniversary of the 2015 PBRSU Certification Date (shown in the second row in Table II as a derivative security).

(5)	These PBRSUs converted into Park common shares on a one-for-one basis upon satisfaction of a service-based vesting requirement pursuant on March 31, 2018.
(6)	These PBRSUs were earned based on the performance level achieved as described in footnote (2) and are also subject to service-based vesting pursuant to which they are to vest on the first anniversary of the 2015 PBRSU Certification Date.
