Definitions/Principles

“Earnings Per Share” will be calculated as non-GAAP EPS (as defined below) and shall exclude the impact of Shares repurchased by the Company in calendar year 2017.

“Earnings Per Share Target” is the applicable dollar amount derived from the calculation in the EPS Table above.

“Goal” means the amount of non-GAAP EPS that the Compensation Committee determined on the Date of Grant as the goal under this PRSU and has communicated to the Participant upon notifying the Participant of this PRSU award.

“Non-GAAP EPS” means GAAP net income for the year ending December 31, 2017 reflected in Green Dot’s consolidated statements of income excluding i) employee stock-based compensation expense, (ii) amortization of acquired intangibles, (iii) change in fair value of contingent consideration, (iv) transaction costs, (v) impairment charges, (vi) amortization of deferred financing costs, (vii) costs and expenses incurred in connection with any proxy contests and similar engagements, (viii) significant unreimbursed costs associated with the delay in migration of its remaining customer accounts from the Company’s former processor to its new processor, and (ix) other income and expense that the Compensation Committee determines are not reflective of ongoing operating results, each tax effected using the Company’s year-to-date effective tax rate, divided by the diluted weighted-average shares issued and outstanding for the year ending December 31, 2017 reflected in Green Dot’s consolidated statements of income after giving effect to the assumed conversion of weighted-average shares of preferred stock for that period.

“Percentage Target PRSUs” means the Target PRSUs multiplied by the percentage set forth in the EPS Table above in the column captioned “Percentage Target PRSUs to Vest” that corresponds to the Earnings Per Share Target that the Company’s Compensation Committee determines and certifies as provided above. To the extent the Compensation Committee determines and certifies that the Earnings Per Share generated by the Company for the Performance Period is in between Earnings Per Share Targets, the percentage to be used to calculate the Percentage Target PRSUs shall be determined by the Compensation Committee through interpolation.

“Performance Period” means January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017.

“Target PRSUs” means the number of shares of Common Stock associated with the PRSU grant as determined by the Compensation Committee, and as set forth in the notice of grant as being the “target” number of PRSUs.
