Key Details
- Transaction date: 2026-03-15; Form 4 filed: 2026-03-16 (timely filing).
- Grants: 5,693 RSUs (granted at $0.00); two derivative grants of 6,641 PSUs each (granted at $0.00).
- Disposal for tax withholding: 820 shares forfeited at $107.02 VWAP, totaling $87,756 (footnote F3 explains VWAP; F2 confirms forfeiture was for tax withholding).
- Footnotes summary:
- F1: RSUs represent a contingent right to one share upon vesting.

Context
- The awards are grants (not open‑market purchases) and are common compensation tools; they do not necessarily indicate immediate buying or selling intent by the insider.
- The 820‑share disposal was a tax‑withholding action tied to vesting (a routine administrative step), not an open‑market sale. The PSUs are performance‑based and may vest into 0–2 shares per unit depending on Expand’s TSR results.
