Context
RSUs are a grant that convert to shares upon vesting; because no cash was exchanged, the immediate economic outlay was zero. As a 10% owner, this filing reports insider ownership changes rather than a routine open-market buy/sell; vesting conditions (tied to a spouse’s service) may affect when shares are delivered.
