Feeney John J. 4

What Happened
John J. Feeney, Vice President and Secretary of RBC Bearings (RBC), was granted compensation on 2026-05-19 consisting of 160 restricted shares (award) and 160 derivative units (stock options). Both grants show an acquisition price of $0.00 (standard compensation grants), so the reported transaction value is $0. The 160 restricted shares and the 160 options are subject to multi-year vesting rather than immediate ownership.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-05-19; Filing date: 2026-05-20 (timely Form 4 filing).
• Grants: 160 restricted shares @ $0.00 (award) and 160 options/derivative units @ $0.00.
• Vesting: The 160 restricted shares vest 1/5 on each anniversary beginning 5/19/2027 through 5/19/2031 (see footnote F1). The 160 options vest 1/5 annually over the same 5-year schedule beginning 5/19/2027 (see footnote F2).
• Holdings reported: Filing discloses a total of 1,760 restricted shares (various tranches listed in F1) and multiple option tranches with specific vesting/exerciseability notes (see F3–F7).
• No cash received or sale reported; this is a compensation grant (code A for award, derivative noted).
• Filing status: Timely (filed the next day); no late-filing flag reported.

Context

• These grants are compensation awards and time‑based vesting applies; they do not represent an open‑market purchase and do not indicate an immediate sale.
• The derivative entry represents stock options (not an exercise or sale). Options will only convert to shares if/when they vest and are exercised.
• For retail investors: awards are common for executives and are intended for retention; they are informative about management compensation but are not the same as an insider purchase of shares with personal cash.
