(1) Performance units were awarded to key officers under the Company’s Relative Total Shareholder Return program. Vesting occurs at June 30, 2021, June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2023. Participants will earn from 0% to 200% of the target award depending upon how the compound annual growth rate of Kimball International common stock ranks within the peer group at the end of the performance period. The maximum number of units that can be issued under these awards is 190,664.

Upon vesting, the outstanding number of restricted stock units and the value of dividends accumulated over the vesting period are converted to shares of common stock.

(3) Unrestricted shares were awarded to non-employee members of the Board of Directors as consideration for service to Kimball International and do not have vesting periods, holding periods, restrictions on sale, or other restrictions.

(4) The grant date fair value of the Relative Total Shareholder Return awards was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation. This valuation technique includes estimating the movement of stock prices and the effects of volatility, interest rates, and dividends. The grant date fair value of the restricted stock units that receive dividends and unrestricted shares was based on the stock price at the date of the award.
