- The 3,500 RSUs vest 25% on each of May 15, Aug 15, Nov 15, 2026 and Feb 15, 2027; they vest immediately on a Change of Control.

Context
- The M-code transactions indicate option exercises (derivative conversion). The concurrent “disposed” entries at $0 are commonly used when option shares are surrendered or netted to cover exercise costs/taxes (a cashless or net-settlement-like process), not an open-market sale of shares.
- The RSU grant is a standard equity award subject to vesting and does not by itself signal an immediate sale; vesting schedule and acceleration on a Change of Control are disclosed in the footnote.
- No sale to the open market was reported here; the main activity is the insider converting options into shares and receiving an RSU grant.
