Context
This filing documents compensation awards (RSUs/PBRSUs) that convert to shares only if/when vesting and performance conditions are met — not an immediate cash purchase or sale. Dividend equivalents accrue and settle under the same terms as the underlying awards. Because part of the grant is performance-based, the eventual number of shares delivered could vary (50%–200% payout depending on performance). The L231LLC disclosure indicates some holdings are held through an entity where Mr. Patrick has managerial control but disclaims direct beneficial ownership beyond his economic interest.
