Context
RSUs are compensation awards that typically convert into shares on a vesting schedule and are not the same as an open-market purchase (they do not necessarily signal a personal cash investment). Such awards are routine for directors and employees as part of pay and retention programs. This report is informational — it documents the grant but does not reveal vesting terms or the award's current market value.
