Krass Caroline 4

What Happened

• Caroline Krass, Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of Hilton Worldwide Holdings (HLT), received equity awards on Feb 25, 2026. The filing reports 2,229 restricted stock units (RSUs) and a derivative award covering 6,170 shares (an option grant), each recorded at $0.00 (award grants, no cash exchanged).
• The RSUs vest in two equal annual installments beginning March 3, 2027. The option award vests in three equal annual installments beginning March 3, 2027. These are compensation awards, not stock purchases or sales.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-02-25; filing date: 2026-02-27 (appears timely).
• Price paid: $0.00 (awarded grants).
• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the filing.
• Footnotes: F1 = RSUs vest in two equal annual installments starting Mar 3, 2027. F2 = Option vests in three equal annual installments starting Mar 3, 2027.
• Transaction code: A = Award/Grant (no exercise or sale reported).

Context

• RSUs convert to shares as they vest; the option award gives the right to buy shares after vesting (exercise price not provided in this Form 4), so these do not represent an immediate sale or purchase of stock.
• Equity grants to executives are common compensation and do not necessarily indicate a near-term trading signal.
