Context
These are compensation grants (awards), not purchases or sales—so they increase potential future share exposure if vested and exercised. The options were granted but not exercised; they become exercisable only if Kerns remains with the company through the vesting date. Holdings are tied to TCG’s interests and Kerns disclaims beneficial ownership beyond his economic interest.
