"remain eligible for AIP awards, subject to proration"
proration financial
"AIP awards, subject to proration"
Proration is the method of dividing a limited quantity—such as shares in an offering, dividends, or rights—among claimants when demand exceeds supply, so each participant receives a proportional slice rather than the full amount requested. It matters to investors because proration determines how many shares or what portion of a payout they actually receive, which affects portfolio size, cash needs, and the expected return; think of it as splitting a pie fairly when more people want a piece than there are slices.
