  On December 23, 2019, the the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Casey's General Stores, Inc. (the "Company") approved a special strategic grant of performance-based restricted stock units ("PSUs") to the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, Darren M. Rebelez, in respect of 5,000 shares of the Company's common stock, and the Company entered into an award agreement (the "Award Agreement") with Mr. Rebelez to reflect the terms of the PSUs.  The PSUs are subject to vesting based on both achievement by the Company of the performance goals described below and Mr. Rebelez's continued service until the relevant vesting dates.  The performance goals relate to the Company's performance during calendar year 2020 in respect of certain elements of the Company's current three-year strategic plan.
  Up to 2,500 of the PSUs (the "Loyalty Program Goal PSUs") are subject to vesting based on a net increase in the number of members enrolled in the Company's loyalty program, the Casey's Rewards program, based on the number of members as of December 31, 2020 as compared to the number as of December 1, 2019.  In the event of a net increase of at least 200% by December 31, 2020, this goal will be achieved in respect of 75% of the Loyalty Program Goal PSUs, and in the event of a net increase of at least 300% by December 31, 2020, this goal will be achieved in respect of 100% of the Loyalty Program Goal PSUs.
  Up to 2,500 of the PSUs (the "E-Commerce Goal PSUs") are subject to vesting based on an increase in the number of E-Commerce transactions by the Company's customers (including through the Company's website and its mobile application) during calendar year 2020.  In the event of an increase of at least 40% from the number of transactions during calendar year 2019, this goal will be achieved in respect of 75% of the E-Commerce Goal PSUs, and in the event of an increase of at least 50% from the number of transactions during calendar year 2019, this goal will be achieved in respect of 100% of the E-Commerce Goal PSUs.
  To the extent that the relevant performance goal is not achieved in respect of the PSUs, such PSUs will be forfeited.  In addition, if a goal is met at a level that falls between 75% and 100% achievement, linear interpolation will be applied to determine the level of achievement.
  Following achievement of performance goals, the PSUs will remain subject to service-based vesting, which will occur one-third on each of January 15, 2021 (or, if later, the date on which the Compensation Committee of the Board (the "Committee") certifies achievement of the goals), January 15, 2022 and January 15, 2023, subject to Mr. Rebelez's continued employment until the relevant vesting date.
  If Mr. Rebelez's employment terminates due to death or disability after December 31, 2020 (other than during the 24-month period following a change in control of the Company), to the extent that performance goals have been achieved, Mr. Rebelez will vest in the PSUs that otherwise would have vested on the next vesting date.  In the event of a change in control prior to December 31, 2020, the Committee will assess the performance goals and determine the extent to which they were met as of the change in control.  In the event of termination of Mr. Rebelez's employment without cause, for good reason or due to death or disability within the 24-month period following a change in control, Mr. Rebelez will vest in full in any outstanding PSUs.  In addition, upon a change in control, if the PSUs are not assumed by the acquirer, they will vest in full.  The definitions of change in control, cause and good reason are set forth in the Company's 2018 Stock Incentive Plan, and the definition of disability is set forth in Mr. Rebelez's employment agreement with the Company.
  The foregoing summary of the Award Agreement is a general description only and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Award Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report, and is incorporated herein by reference.
