Glass Ronald W. 4

What Happened

• Ronald W. Glass, Vice President & Chief Accounting Officer of Kosmos Energy, received 7,732 shares upon settlement of vested restricted stock units and sold a total of 22,598 shares in open-market transactions.
• The award (7,732 shares) settled on Feb 3, 2026 and resulted from RSUs granted Jan 31, 2023 that vested based on performance. Sales occurred Feb 3–4, 2026 for total reported proceeds of $31,124 (19,285 shares at a $1.37 weighted avg = $26,420; 3,313 shares at a $1.42 weighted avg = $4,704).
• These sales were made to satisfy tax withholding on the RSU vesting (per the filing), so they are routine withholding-related disposals rather than standalone investment purchases or sell-offs.

Context

• These transactions reflect RSU vesting and subsequent sales to cover tax obligations. Such withholding sales are common and do not necessarily indicate an insider's view on the company’s outlook.
• No option exercises, gifts, or 10% owner transactions are involved; this was an award settlement plus related withholding sales.
