IPSEN MIKKEL 4

What Happened

• Mikkel Ipsen, Senior Vice President, Human Resources of Noble Corp (NE), received an award of 10,427 restricted stock units (RSUs) reported as a derivative grant on Jan 29, 2026. The filing records the acquisition at $0.00 per unit (award/grant), i.e., this is a compensation grant rather than a purchase or sale.
• These RSUs represent contingent rights to receive Class A ordinary shares upon vesting; there are no immediate cash proceeds or sales associated with this grant.

• Footnotes: F1 — each RSU equals a contingent right to one Class A ordinary share; F2 — RSUs vest in three equal annual installments beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date.

Context

• RSU grants are commonly used as compensation and do not by themselves indicate buying or selling intent in the market. The awarded RSUs will convert into actual shares only as they vest (one-third per year over three years under the stated schedule).
• No tax withholding, cashless exercise, or immediate sale was reported in the excerpt; this was a standard compensation grant to an executive.
