"Non-Qualified Stock Options (right to purchase)"
weighted average price financial
"The price reported in Column 4 is a weighted average price."
Weighted average price is the average price of a security where each trade or component is counted according to its size, so bigger trades pull the average more than smaller ones. Think of it like calculating the average cost of a grocery haul where items you bought more of have greater influence on the final per-item cost. Investors use it to understand the true average price paid or received, judge execution quality, and compare trading performance against market movement.
exercisable financial
"scheduled to vest and become exercisable in equal installments"
award agreement financial
"subject to the terms of the applicable award agreement"
An award agreement is a legal contract that spells out the terms of a pay or equity grant—such as stock options, restricted shares, or cash bonuses—given to an employee, director or consultant. It describes what is being granted, any conditions for keeping it (for example, earning it over time or meeting performance targets), and what happens if the person leaves or breaks rules. Investors care because these agreements affect company costs, potential share dilution and how executives are motivated and rewarded.
