RSUs are awards that convert to shares if and when vesting conditions are met; they do not require an outlay of cash by the recipient at grant and are different from open-market purchases or option exercises. This grant reflects company compensation/retention practices (including a sign-on and annual grant component) rather than an insider market trade.
