Key Details
- Transaction date(s): January 25, 2026 (filed January 27, 2026 — filing appears timely).

- Reported prices/values: $0.00 per share for award and PRSU lines (typical for grants); surrender recorded as $0.00 on Form 4.

- PRSUs represent the right to receive one share per unit on vesting and are scheduled to vest Jan 25, 2029 at target; actual payout may range from 0%–200% based on 3‑year total shareholder return vs. peers.
- The 21,713-share disposal was a surrender to the issuer to satisfy tax withholding upon vesting.
- Filing timeliness: Filed two days after the report date; not marked late.
Context
- These transactions are equity compensation (restricted stock and performance-based RSUs), not open-market purchases or sales. The surrender of shares to cover taxes is a common, routine step when restricted awards vest and does not indicate a separate open-market sale. PRSUs are performance-contingent: the final number of shares delivered in 2029 could be higher or lower than the target depending on relative TSR performance.

Between 0% and 200% of the target number of PRSUs may vest and the number of shares of the Issuer's common stock ("Common Stock") to be issued will be determined based on the total shareholder return ("TSR") of the Common Stock relative to the respective TSRs of the stocks of a peer group of companies, each measured over a 3-year period from the grant date. If the Reporting Person's employment is terminated under certain circumstances or a change of control occurs prior to the 3rd anniversary of the grant date, all or a portion of the PRSUs will vest and the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued will be determined at such time based on the respective TSRs of the Common Stock and the stocks of the peer group, each measured from the grant date to the accelerated vesting date.
