Performance share units
Kohl's grants performance-based restricted stock units ("performance share units") to certain executives. The performance measurement period for these
performance share units is three fiscal years. The fair market value of the grants are determined using a Monte-Carlo valuation on the date of grant.
The actual number of shares which will be earned at the end of the three-year vesting periods will vary based on our cumulative financial performance
over the vesting periods. The number of performance share units earned will be modified up or down based on Kohl’s Relative Total Shareholder Return
against a defined peer group during the vesting periods. The payouts, if earned, will be settled in Kohl's common stock after the end of each multi-year
performance periods.
The following table summarizes performance share unit activity by year of grant:
