Key Details
- Transaction date: April 15, 2026. Form 4 filed April 17, 2026 (timely filing).
- Grant: 25,000 RSUs (each RSU = contingent right to 1 share upon vesting).
- Disposition: 25,000 options canceled (derivative disposition to issuer).
- Price/Value: N/A in the filing.
- Shares owned after transaction: not specified in this Form 4.
- Footnotes: The options were canceled under a Stock Option Cancellation Agreement dated April 15, 2026; in exchange Holloway received 25,000 RSUs under the company’s 2020 Stock Incentive Plan and the April 15, 2026 award agreement. The RSUs vest immediately. The canceled options originally had a multi‑date vesting schedule (50% on grant date; remaining 50% vesting in installments).
- Timeliness: Filing appears timely (within the standard two business days).
Context This was an award/derivative exchange (options canceled for RSUs), not an open‑market purchase or sale. Because the RSUs vest immediately, Holloway now has a vested right to receive up to 25,000 shares (subject to settlement terms); the filing does not state cash value or whether the RSUs have been settled into shares. Such exchanges are typically administrative/compensation-related and do not by themselves indicate a buy or sell signal.
