• Footnotes: award made under the issuer’s Team Milestone Program pursuant to the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan and (per footnote) the July 31 milestone award was fully vested upon grant. RSUs convert to Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. Some RSUs under the plan may have later vesting dates (example dates noted: Mar 1, 2027 and Aug 30, 2031) per the filing.
• The withheld shares reflect mandatory tax withholding under the award agreement and are not a market sale by Lawson; the transaction is indicated as exempt under Rule 16b-3.

Context

• RSU grants are compensation/retention awards and do not necessarily signal a buy/sell view from the insider. The award here was tied to a service milestone (15-year anniversary) and was fully vested on grant per the filing. Tax withholding via share retention is a routine administrative step and should not be read as an active sale by the insider.
