Chawrun William Paul 4

What Happened Chawrun William Paul, Chief Operating Officer of i-80 Gold Corp. (IAUX), was granted 280,000 Restricted Share Units (RSUs) on March 25, 2026. The Form 4 reports the acquisition price as $0.00 (a derivative award), so no cash changed hands at grant. The RSUs represent contingent rights to receive one share of common stock per RSU when they vest; the award does not convey immediate share ownership or an open-market purchase.

Context RSUs are a form of equity compensation — they give the holder a future right to receive shares (or cash equivalent) once vesting conditions are met. Because these units vest three years out and may be settled in cash or shares, they do not reflect an immediate buy or sell decision by the insider. For retail investors, RSU grants indicate the company is compensating an executive with long-dated equity-linked awards, which aligns incentives but is not a direct signal of insider market buying.
