Context

• RSU grants are a form of executive compensation designed to align executives’ interests with shareholders; they are not an immediate purchase or sale and therefore are less directly informative about short-term insider sentiment.
• When these RSUs vest, the reporting person will receive shares (subject to the stated delivery timing), which may then be held or sold — any such transactions would be reported separately.
