Context RSUs are a form of compensation and typically vest over time; they are not an outright market purchase or sale. Because these RSUs vest only if Mr. Michael remains in service through the 2027 Annual Meeting, they represent future potential stock delivery rather than an immediate change in market exposure. To estimate the grant’s dollar value, multiply 458 by RL’s share price on or around the grant date.
