• Award breakdown: total 801,186 units (667,655 + 133,531); each RSU/PSU represents the right to one share of Class A common stock; reported price $0.00.
• Vesting: per footnotes, the grant is 40% RSUs (quarterly vesting) and 60% PSUs (vest on achievement of performance milestones). A separate RSU component is eligible to vest based on QuantumScape’s total shareholder return (TSR) vs. peers for the performance period 1/1/2026–12/31/2028.
• Shares represented after transaction: filing notes 1,960,511 shares represented by RSUs and PSUs (per footnote F3). The filing does not report an immediate cash value or an open‑market sale/purchase.
• Transaction code: A = Award/Grant.

Context

• RSUs and PSUs are compensation vehicles: RSUs convert to shares as service-based vesting conditions are met; PSUs convert to shares only if performance targets are achieved. These grants do not represent an immediate purchase or sale of shares and should be viewed as executive compensation rather than a direct bullish or bearish trade signal.
• For retail investors, pay attention to the vesting schedule and performance metrics (TSR and other milestones) to understand when and if these awards will convert to tradable shares.
