Context RSU grants are a common component of executive compensation and do not represent an open-market purchase or sale. Value is realized only if and when RSUs vest and convert to shares; until then they are contractual rights that may be forfeited if vesting conditions aren’t met. This filing simply discloses the grant and provides vesting terms—it’s not an immediate buy or sell signal.
