Key Details

- Shares/units granted: 1,571 RSUs (vesting 6/11/2027) and 120 RSUs (issued in lieu of a $26,875 quarterly retainer and fully vested).
- Price per share: N/A (awards/grants); total dollar value not stated in the filing.
- Shares owned after transaction: not reported on this Form 4.
- Footnotes: F1 — 1,571 RSUs vest in full on June 11, 2027 (or upon change in control). F2 — each RSU represents a contingent right to one share. F3 — 120 RSUs were issued in lieu of quarterly retainer fees and were fully vested at issuance.
- Transaction code: A = Award/Grant.
Context RSU awards are compensation, not open‑market purchases, so they reflect pay practices rather than an immediate buy/sell signal. The 120 RSUs being vested at issuance means those units are effectively immediate compensation; the larger 1,571 RSUs remain subject to future vesting conditions (or accelerate on a change in control). The late filing note is procedural — late Form 4s can draw regulatory scrutiny but do not by themselves indicate insider intent.
