- Award amounts/prices: 96,100 RSUs @ $0.00 and 336,300 RSUs @ $0.00 (total 432,400 RSUs).
- What the derivatives mean: Each RSU is a contingent right to receive one share of common stock upon vesting (Footnote F1).

Context
- These were compensation awards (RSUs), not open-market purchases or sales. Awards do not require an immediate cash outlay and do not represent an immediate bullish or bearish trade by the insider; they are typical executive compensation that can dilute outstanding shares if/when settled.
- Vesting is service-based; shares will only be issued if vesting conditions (continuous service) are met on each anniversary.
