Key Details

• Transaction date: July 15, 2026; Form 4 filed July 20, 2026.
• Transaction type/code: Award (A) — 29,412 RSUs granted at $0.00 (no immediate cash value).
• Vesting: 29,412 RSUs vest on June 30, 2027, subject to continued service (Footnote 1).
• Holdings after grant: 318,158 shares of common stock plus 29,412 unvested RSUs = 347,570 total reported (Footnote 2).

Context
This was an equity award (unvested RSUs), not a market purchase or sale. RSU grants are a common form of long-term compensation and do not represent immediately tradable shares until they vest. The award increases Harned’s potential future stake if he remains employed/serves through the vest date.
