- Notable footnotes:
- F1: These RSUs were granted on March 20, 2024 and vested after the Compensation Committee certified performance on March 25, 2026.
- F2: The filing also discloses additional outstanding/time‑based RSUs that remain unvested (18,000; 12,834; 5,834 shares with various vesting dates in 2027–2029).
- F3: The 6,444-share disposition represents shares withheld to satisfy the tax withholding obligation (cashless withholding), not an open-market sale.
Context
- This was a vesting of previously granted performance RSUs, not a market purchase or voluntary sale by the insider. The withheld shares reflect standard tax withholding practices upon vesting (a routine administrative step), while remaining unvested RSUs continue to follow their scheduled vesting dates.
