Klein David M 4

What Happened

Klein, General Counsel of Sunstone Hotel Investors (SHO), was granted 20,718 restricted shares of common stock under the company's 2022 Incentive Award Plan (transaction code A). The Form 4 shows no purchase price (N/A); this is a compensation grant, not an open-market buy or sale.

Context
Restricted stock awards are a common form of executive compensation intended to retain employees and align their interests with shareholders; they do not necessarily indicate a personal buy or sell decision. Because the award vests over time, the economic benefit depends on future vesting and any applicable forfeiture or tax withholding provisions (none additional disclosed in this filing).
