UL Solutions (ULS) Director Charles W. Hooper Receives DRSU Award

What Happened

• Charles W. Hooper, a director of UL Solutions Inc. (ULS), received three grants of deferred restricted stock units (DRSUs) on September 10, 2026 totaling 19 DRSUs (10 + 5 + 4). Each award is reported at $0.00 per unit (transaction code A — award/grant), meaning no cash was exchanged; the DRSUs represent a contingent right to receive shares of the company’s Class A common stock in the future.

Key Details

• Transaction date: September 10, 2026; Form 4 filed September 14, 2026 (filed within the two-business-day window).
• Grants: 10 DRSUs, 5 DRSUs, and 4 DRSUs (total = 19 DRSUs) at $0.00 per unit.
• Transaction code: A (award/grant); reported as derivative securities (DRSUs).
• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided extract.
• Relevant footnotes:
  • F1: Each DRSU equals a contingent right to one share.
  • F2–F3–F4–F5–F6: Dividend equivalent rights accrue on DRSUs and vest proportionately with them; prior grants noted as vested May 1, 2025 and May 20, 2026. The current DRSUs vest by the earlier of May 20, 2027 or the annual meeting following the May 20, 2026 grant date and will be settled in shares per the issuer’s Non-Employee Director Deferred Compensation Plan.

Context

• These are compensation awards to a non-employee director (routine for board service) and not an open-market purchase or sale. Because these are DRSUs, no immediate shares were delivered and no cash changed hands; settlement will occur in shares per the Plan when vesting/settlement conditions are met. This filing provides disclosure of the grant and vesting/settlement mechanics but does not, by itself, indicate a buy or sell signal.
