Deferred Stock Units financial

"Each deferred stock unit represents the right to receive one share of Akamai common stock upon vesting."

Deferred stock units are promises from a company to give an employee shares of stock at a future date, often after certain conditions are met or after leaving the company. They function like a form of delayed compensation, allowing employees to earn shares over time. For investors, they represent potential future ownership in the company, but do not provide immediate voting rights or dividends until the shares are actually received.

change in control financial

"the earlier to occur of (i) May 13, 2036, (ii) a change in control (as defined under Code Section 409A)"

A "change in control" occurs when the ownership or management of a company shifts significantly, such as through a merger, acquisition, or sale of a large part of its assets. This change can impact how the company is run and may influence its future direction. For investors, it matters because it can affect the company's stability, strategy, and value, often signaling potential changes in investment risk or opportunity.

Code Section 409A financial

"a change in control (as defined under Code Section 409A), (iii) separation from service, or (iv) death."
