- Derivative/option: vests in full on the earlier of June 11, 2027 or the next annual meeting; becomes fully vested and exercisable upon a change in control.

Context These grants are compensatory awards to a director and do not represent an open-market purchase (which some investors view as a stronger signal of personal conviction). RSUs convert to shares upon vesting; the derivative award appears to be an equity option or similar instrument that will vest and become exercisable per the schedule above. Accelerated vesting on a change in control is a common feature for retention and transition protections.
