Masse Alain 4

What Happened

• Alain Masse, President, N.A. Automotive for Genuine Parts Co. (GPC), was granted 6,765 restricted stock units (RSUs) on May 1, 2026 (5,715 + 1,050 shares; grant price $0.00). On the same date, 1,096 shares were surrendered/disposed to satisfy tax withholding obligations (329, 502 and 265 shares) at $104.99 per share, resulting in proceeds/withheld value of $115,069 ($34,542 + $52,705 + $27,822).
• The grants are awards (not open-market purchases). The share disposals are tax-withholding transactions (routine, not necessarily a directional market bet).

• Shares granted: 6,765 RSUs total (5,715 + 1,050). Filing notes: F3 indicates some shares were issued in settlement of PRSUs earned and vested under a PRSU awarded May 1, 2023; F1 notes a time‑based RSU grant vesting in equal annual installments over three years.

Context

• The awards are equity compensation (RSUs/PRSUs). The disposals labeled F reflect withholding/surrender of shares to cover tax obligations (a common, administrative step when awards vest). This is not the same as an open-market sale for investment purposes.
