(1) Represents LTIP Units issued pursuant to the Paramount Group, Inc. 2017 Performance Program (the "2017 Program") under the Issuer's 2014 Equity Incentive Plan. The LTIP Units granted pursuant to the 2017 Program will vest 50% on the date that performance is determined under the 2017 Program following the conclusion of the three-year performance period ending December 31, 2019 and 50% on December 31, 2020, subject to the achievement of performance criteria and continued employment. The reporting person will be required to hold earned awards for an additional year following vesting.
(2) Conditioned upon minimum allocations to the capital accounts of the LTIP Units for federal income tax purposes, each vested LTIP Unit may be converted, at the election of the holder, into a common unit of limited partnership interest ("OP Unit") in Paramount Group Operating Partnership LP. Each OP Unit acquired upon conversion of a vested LTIP Unit may be presented for redemption, at the election of the holder, for cash equal to the then fair market value of one share of the Issuer's common stock, except that the Issuer may, at its election, acquire each OP Unit so presented for one share of common stock. LTIP Units are generally not convertible without the consent of the Issuer until two years from the date of the grant. The rights to convert vested LTIP Units into OP Units and redeem OP Units do not have expiration dates.
(3) LTIP Units issued pursuant to the Issuer's 2014 Equity Incentive Plan. The LTIP Units vest in four equal installments on each of January 30, 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021, subject to continued employment.
