C3.ai (AI) director granted 28,628 options at $19.16

Insider equity grant to a director with attendance‑based vesting.

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Insider equity grant to a director with attendance‑based vesting. A Form 4 shows Director Richard C. Levin received a stock option to purchase 28,628 shares of Class A common stock exercisable at $19.16. The option grant date is 10/03/2025 with an expiration on 10/02/2035 and the option appears fully reported as a direct holding of 28,628 shares after the acquisition. Vesting begins on the Vesting Commencement Date (10/03/2025) and 12.5% of the shares vest on the last day of each fiscal quarter only if the director attends the regularly scheduled board meeting for that quarter; missed meetings suspend quarterly vesting and those suspended shares vest only if attendance requirements are later satisfied after the two‑year anniversary.

Positive

• Director received equity compensation of 28,628 option shares, aligning interests with shareholders
• Long exercise window through 10/02/2035 gives time for value realization

Negative

• Vesting is conditional on in‑person attendance at scheduled board meetings; missed meetings suspend quarterly vesting
• Vested shares delayed for suspended shares until after the two‑year anniversary if attendance lapses

Insights

Corporate Governance Analyst

Grant aligns director incentives but includes strict attendance conditions.

The award of a 28,628-share option at an exercise price of $19.16 provides an ownership stake that ties the director economically to shareholder outcomes over a 10-year life through 10/02/2035. The structure is standard for compensation but is notable because the report lists the position as Director and the holding as direct.

The vesting schedule conditions 12.5% quarterly vesting on in-person attendance at regularly scheduled board meetings, with suspended shares delayed until post‑two‑year compliance. This creates a governance lever to encourage meeting participation but introduces execution risk if attendance is interrupted over the vesting window; monitor quarterly meeting schedules and any amendments to the plan over the next 2 years.
