Key Details
- Transaction date: February 5, 2026; Form 4 filed February 9, 2026.
- Transaction type: Award/Grant (Derivative right to receive restricted common stock). Price/consideration: N/A.

- F3: These 1,617 rights were granted 2/5/2026 and, per the Non‑Employee Directors Deferred Compensation Plan, Leupold elected to defer receipt until February 2029; they vest on 2/5/2029 if he remains a director.
- F1/F2: The filing also references prior director awards (grants from 2/28/2024 and 1/8/2025) that were deferred to 2/28/2027 and 1/8/2028, respectively, and vest only if the reporting person remains a director.

Context
- This is a deferred restricted‑share award (a right to receive shares in the future if vesting conditions are met), not an open‑market purchase or sale. Such grants are routine for non‑employee directors as part of compensation and do not, by themselves, indicate a personal buy/sell signal. The award vests on the specified future date only if Leupold remains a director.
