• Price: $0.00 per share (awarded, not purchased).

• Footnotes: F1 describes the RSUs (each RSU = right to one share); F2 notes the derivative awards are options with the three‑year tranche vesting schedule.

Context These awards are standard compensation grants to an executive and do not represent an open‑market buy or sell. The options were granted (not exercised), so no shares were issued or sold immediately; value will be realized only if/when options vest and are exercised or RSUs convert to shares. Such awards are common for retention and incentive purposes and should be interpreted as compensation rather than a direct signal of near‑term buying or selling interest.
