  1. Effective March 31, 2026 (the "2023 PBRSU Certification Date"), the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors of Park National Corporation ("Park") certified the level of achievement with respect to the performance criteria for the three-fiscal-year performance period applicable to performance-based restricted stock units ("PBRSUs") granted to the reporting person effective January 18, 2023. The PBRSUs convert into Park common shares on a one-for-one basis. The PBRSUs earned based on the performance level achieved are also subject to a service-based vesting requirement with 50% vesting (resulting in the right to receive the number of common shares shown in the first row in Table I) on the 2023 PBRSU Certification Date and the other 50% to vest on the first anniversary of the 2023 PBRSU Certification Date (shown in the second row in Table II as a derivative security). These common shares of Park were acquired upon the satisfaction of a service-based vesting requirement whereby PBRSUs were converted into Park common shares on a one-for-one basis. The number of common shares reported as beneficially owned differs due to shares acquired under Park's employee stock ownership plan (the "KSOP").

"Payment of exercise price or tax liability by delivering securities"
A tax-withholding disposition is an event or transaction—such as selling or transferring securities, exercising options, or receiving compensation—that triggers a requirement to hold back part of the payment and remit it to tax authorities. It matters to investors because it reduces the cash they receive immediately and can change the timing and amount of taxable income, like a cashier taking a portion of your sale proceeds to pay taxes before you get the rest.
