Each deferred stock unit or restricted stock unit represents the right to receive one share of Cognizant Class A common stock. Certain units are already fully vested, while one restricted stock unit grant will fully vest on June 3, 2026. Settlement of these units has been deferred under the company’s non‑employee director compensation guidelines until specified future events such as a change in control or the director’s termination of service.
Cognizant Technology Solutions director John M. Dineen reported three acquisitions of restricted stock units on February 26, 2026, all at a stated price of zero under the company’s compensation arrangements. Some units arose from dividend equivalent rights on earlier awards and are already fully vested, while another block is scheduled to vest fully on June 3, 2026. Dineen has elected to defer settlement of these units, with delivery of Cognizant Class A shares tied to events such as a change in control, death or permanent disability, or specific dates after his board service ends.
Cognizant Technology Solutions director Leo S. Mackay, Jr. reported the acquisition of small grants of deferred restricted stock units and restricted stock units on February 26, 2026, all at a price of $0.00 per unit. These awards arose from dividend equivalent rights on previously outstanding units and do not reflect open-market stock purchases or sales.
The deferred restricted stock units are fully vested and will be settled when Mackay leaves the board. Certain restricted stock units are fully vested but settlement has been deferred under company director compensation guidelines, while another restricted stock unit grant will fully vest on June 3, 2026 and is also subject to deferred settlement elections.
