Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-02-26; Form 4 filed 2026-03-02 (filing appears timely).
• Transaction type: Award/Grant (RSUs) — 537,667 units at $0.00.
• Vesting/settlement: RSUs convert to common stock on the third anniversary of the grant (Footnote F1).
• Shares owned following transaction: not specified in the filing.
• Notable ownership note: the filing reports 333,123 shares that were previously owned directly and were contributed to the insider’s personal trust in 2025; those are now held indirectly and are reported as such (Footnote F2).
• No sale, purchase, or option exercise occurred — this is a compensation award.

Context RSU grants are a common form of executive compensation and do not represent an immediate cash transaction or a market purchase/sale. Because these units vest in the future, they do not necessarily signal an immediate change in the insider’s market exposure until they convert to shares at vesting.
