  • Vesting: RSUs granted under the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan; vest in three equal annual installments beginning one year after the grant (footnote).
  • Footnotes: Withholdings were issuer-share withholdings to cover tax obligations for vested RSUs and performance-based RSUs.
  • Shares owned after the transactions: Not specified in the filing.
  • Filing: Reported on Form 4 filed 2026-02-03 — appears timely (no late filing noted).

Context
The withheld-share entries are tax-withholding actions (often called "sell-to-cover") and are not open-market sales indicating disposition for cash needs rather than an investment view. The 44,855 RSU grant is an award subject to multi-year vesting; these are not immediately tradable shares.
