Vesting occurs quarterly through May 15, 2030 under a multi-step schedule (initial 13.83% on Aug 15 and Nov 15, 2026, then varying quarterly percentages through 2030).

Context
- RSU grants are long-term compensation that only become actual shares as they vest; they do not represent an immediate purchase of stock. The sale of 22,700 shares was an open-market disposition—common for executives managing tax or diversification—but the filing does not state the source of the sold shares.
- For retail investors, purchases or grants can be a stronger signal of insider conviction than routine sales; this filing shows an award of RSUs (future-share potential) and a modest open-market sale (about $632K), both disclosed per SEC reporting rules.
