Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-05-20; Form 4 filed 2026-05-22 (timely filing).
• Grant: 8,520.179 deferred stock units; reported acquisition price $0 (derivative).
• Shares owned after transaction: not disclosed in the provided filing.
• Footnotes from the filing:
  • Each DSU equals the right to one share of HST common stock.
  • DSUs were granted in lieu of an annual stock award.
  • The DSUs are fully vested and will be settled in shares on a date chosen by Ms. Laing under the Non-Employee Directors' Deferred Stock Compensation Plan.

Context This was an equity compensation award to a non-employee director (routine, not an open-market purchase or sale). Because the units are fully vested and will be converted to shares at Ms. Laing’s election, future settlement will increase her share count but the grant itself does not indicate a buy or sell signal.
