Context
- These are equity awards under Blue Gold’s 2025 Equity Incentive Plan. Fully vested shares are immediately owned; restricted and performance shares will vest only per the schedule or upon meeting VWAP hurdles, so some shares are contingent on time or stock-price conditions.
- Awards at $0.00 are standard for grants (they represent compensation/equity incentives rather than cash purchases). This filing is informational and does not by itself indicate intent to buy or sell additional shares.
