Lifezone Metals (LZM) Chief Legal Officer Davis Spencer Exercises RSUs, Sells Shares

What Happened Davis Spencer, Chief Legal Officer of Lifezone Metals Ltd (LZM), had 34,000 restricted stock units (RSUs vest) convert into ordinary shares on April 7, 2026 (exercise/conversion). To satisfy tax withholding obligations, 15,615 of those shares were sold between April 7 and April 13, 2026, for net proceeds of roughly $61,492 (weighted average price $3.94).

Key Details

  • Transaction dates: vesting/conversion on April 7, 2026; shares sold April 7–13, 2026 (filing covers Apr 7–13 per footnote).
  • Sale details: 15,615 shares sold, weighted average price $3.94; reported sale prices ranged from $3.66 to $4.16 (footnote F2).
  • RSU conversion: 34,000 RSUs converted into ordinary shares (each RSU = 1 share per F3); 1/3 of the award vested on April 7, 2026 (F4).
  • Tax withholding: sale coded F (payment of exercise price or tax liability) — proceeds used to satisfy taxes.
  • Net retained from this vesting: of the 34,000 vested shares, 15,615 were sold, leaving 18,385 newly issued shares retained (before accounting for any prior holdings).
  • Filing date: Form 4 filed April 14, 2026. The April 7 vesting/conversion appears to have been reported after the typical 2-business-day Form 4 deadline (i.e., the filing includes transactions through Apr 13).

Context

  • This was not a market-timed purchase but routine issuance of shares on RSU vesting, with an associated sell-to-cover for taxes — a common administrative transaction that does not necessarily indicate a change in insider sentiment.
  • The entry coded M indicates conversion/exercise of a derivative (the RSUs) into ordinary shares; the F code denotes the subsequent share sale to meet tax withholding.
