Clear Secure (YOU) Director Robert O'Hare Receives 8,751 DSU Award

What Happened

• Robert O'Hare, a director of Clear Secure, Inc. (YOU), was granted 8,751 Deferred Restricted Stock Units (DSUs) on July 30, 2026. The filing reports this as an award/acquisition (transaction code A); no purchase price is applicable (N/A) because these are derivative awards rather than open-market shares.
• The DSUs represent a contingent right to receive one share of Class A common stock per DSU in the future. The filing does not state an immediate cash value or show sale proceeds.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-07-30 (Form 4 filed same date; not indicated as late).
• Award: 8,751 DSUs (derivative units); price: N/A.
• Vesting: DSUs vest in three equal annual installments beginning July 30, 2027, generally subject to continued board service.
• Settlement: DSUs generally will not be settled into Class A shares until after the reporting person's departure from the board.
• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided filing.
• Footnote: DSUs = contingent right to receive one share per unit on a future date; used commonly for director compensation.

Context

• DSUs are deferred compensation for directors and do not represent immediate share ownership or a cashless sale—settlement occurs later and typically after board service ends. Such awards are routine director compensation and should be interpreted as compensation-related, not a direct buying or selling signal.
