General. The number of PSUs granted to the Participant, as specified in the Participant’s account under the 2018 Special PSU grant, is referred to as the “Target Number of PSUs.” The percentage of the Target Number of PSUs that shall vest will be based on Verizon’s annual average Return on Equity for the five-year period beginning August 1, 2018, and ending at the close of business on July 31, 2023 (the “Performance Period”). Notwithstanding paragraph 5(c), no portion of the Target Number of PSUs shall vest unless the Committee determines that Verizon’s average annual Return on Equity for the Performance Period is equal to or greater than 18%. If the Committee determines that Verizon’s average annual Return on Equity for the Performance Period is equal to or greater than 18%, the percentage of the Target Number of PSUs that shall vest (plus any additional PSUs added with respect to DEUs credited on the Target Number of PSUs prior to the Vesting Date (defined in paragraph 5(c)) will equal the PSU Vested Percentage (as defined below). For example, if # the Participant is granted 1,000 PSUs, and # those PSUs are credited with an additional 200 PSUs as a result of DEUs paid prior to the Vesting Date, and # the PSU Vested Percentage is 50%, the Participant will vest in (1,000 PSUs + 200 PSUs from DEUs) times 50%, or 600 PSUs, which shall be payable in shares of Verizon common stock as described in paragraph 6.

For purposes of this paragraph, “willful misconduct” and “gross negligence” shall be as determined by the Committee. The Audit Committee of the Verizon Board of Directors shall determine whether a material restatement of financial results has occurred. If you do not repay the entire amount required under this paragraph, the Company may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, offset your obligation to repay against any source of income available to it, including but not limited to any money you may have in your nonqualified deferral accounts.
