- F3: Surrender of common stock to issuer was to cover withholding taxes (routine tax withholding).
- F4/F5: PRSUs convert one-for-one to shares at vesting; these PRSUs vest on Jan 25, 2029 at target shown, and may pay out 0%–200% based on 3‑year TSR vs. peers (accelerated vesting rules apply in certain terminations or change‑of‑control scenarios).
Context
- These were compensation awards and a tax‑withholding surrender, not open‑market purchases or sales — awards are routine executive compensation and do not by themselves indicate the insider is buying or selling shares as a market view.
- The PRSUs are performance‑based and may pay out more or fewer shares (0–200% of target) depending on relative total shareholder return measured over three years.

- [F5]These performance-based restricted stock units ("PRSUs") are scheduled to vest on January 25, 2029. The target number of PRSUs is reported on this form. Between 0% and 200% of the target number of PRSUs may vest and the number of shares of the Issuer's common stock ("Common Stock") to be issued will be determined based on the total shareholder return ("TSR") of the Common Stock relative to the respective TSRs of the stocks of a peer group of companies, each measured over a 3-year period from the grant date. If the Reporting Person's employment is terminated under certain circumstances or a change of control occurs prior to the 3rd anniversary of the grant date, all or a portion of the PRSUs will vest and the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued will be determined at such time based on the respective TSRs of the Common Stock and the stocks of the peer group, each measured from the grant date to the accelerated vesting date.
