• Amount: 5,244 RSUs.
• Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the filing.
• Footnotes: F1 — each RSU converts one-for-one into one share of ARKO common stock; F2 — RSUs are immediately vested but are payable upon the earlier of the reporting person’s termination of service or a change of control.
• Timeliness: Report filed 2026-04-02 for a 2026-04-01 transaction — within normal Form 4 timing (timely).

Context

• RSU grants are a common form of compensation. Although these RSUs are immediately vested, settlement into actual shares is deferred until termination or a change of control, so no shares were necessarily issued to Friedman at the grant date. Grants like this are informative about compensation but do not carry the same market-signaling weight as open-market purchases or insider sales.
