Lawson Martin R 4

What Happened

• Martin R. Lawson, a director of MercadoLibre, received an award of 94 shares on June 12, 2026. The shares were granted at $0.00 per share (total reported value $0) and are reported as an acquisition (transaction code A). This is a grant/award, not an open-market purchase or sale.

Key Details

• Transaction date and price: 2026-06-12; 94 shares @ $0.00 (acquired).
• Shares owned after transaction: Footnotes indicate prior holdings of 559 restricted shares plus 3,671 common shares. Adding the 94-share grant results in a total of 4,324 shares referenced in the filing (many subject to restrictions as noted).
• Notable footnotes:
  • F1: The 94 shares are subject to forfeiture and transfer restrictions until MercadoLibre’s next annual shareholders meeting following the transaction date.
  • F2: References 559 restricted shares and 3,671 common shares already held; 465 of the restricted shares will vest in two substantially equal installments on the next two anniversaries of a July 1, 2022 grant date, subject to continued compliance with the award terms.
• Filing timeliness: The Form 4 reports the transaction on 2026-06-12 (same date as the transaction), with no late-filing flag indicated.
• Remarks: A Power of Attorney for Martin Lawson is incorporated by reference from his Form 3 filed June 24, 2025.

Context

• This was a restricted stock grant (award) rather than a market purchase or sale, so it reflects compensation/award mechanics rather than an open-market investment decision.
• Restricted shares subject to forfeiture or vesting may be returned if conditions aren’t met; they do not necessarily indicate the director’s near-term trading intentions.
