- F3: One grant is performance-based (maximum 900,000 options may vest based on stock-price performance during the performance period; 10-year term ending Sept 8, 2035). The earned portion will satisfy the service requirement on Aug 18, 2026, subject to continued service.
Context
- These are option grant and cancellation entries (derivative transactions), not open-market purchases or sales of common stock. The performance-based award represents a maximum potential grant — actual vested/options earned may be fewer depending on results. The cancellations being “for no consideration” mean no cash was paid to the CEO in connection with the canceled options.
