Resolution:

Modify the CSV file, change the value for ForceChangePassword to FALSE, and then rerun the migration.  For example:

EmailAddress,Password,ForceChangePassword
pilarp@tailspintoys.com,Pa$$w0rd,False
tobyn@tailspintoys.com,Pa$$w0rd,False
iant@tailspintoys.com,Pa$$w0rd,False

Alternatively, you can remove the Password and ForceChangePassword columns. The documentation for staged Exchange migration will be updated accordingly.
