FL Form 4: PSUs Converted, 0.1168 Exchange Ratio, Insider Holdings Liquidated
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Foot Locker became a wholly owned subsidiary of DICK'S Sporting Goods on September 8, 2025. The filing shows Jennifer Kraft, EVP and General Counsel, had her unvested performance stock units deemed acquired: 39,081 shares of Foot Locker common stock were treated as acquired at a $0 price, resulting in 88,549 shares reported as beneficially owned immediately after that deemed acquisition. The filing also reports two disposals: 75,551 shares and 12,998 shares, which reduced her direct holdings to 0 shares.
The Merger Agreement converted outstanding RSUs and PSUs into Adjusted RSUs using a conversion factor of 0.1168. PSUs converted to Adjusted RSUs are no longer subject to performance vesting. At the Effective Time each Foot Locker share was converted into either $24.00 cash or 0.1168 shares of Parent common stock, with fractional shares paid in cash.

- On September 8, 2025, pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), dated May 15, 2025, by and among DICK'S Sporting Goods, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Parent"), RJS Sub LLC, a New York limited liability company and a wholly owned direct Subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub"), and the Issuer, the Issuer became a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the "Merger"). Represents a deemed acquisition of shares of Issuer common stock underlying unvested performance stock units ("PSUs") at the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time") pursuant to the Merger Agreement, in accordance with the applicable award agreement (or if not addressed in the applicable award agreement, the Issuer's 2007 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated as of March 22, 2023). At the Effective Time, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each time-based restricted stock unit ("RSU") of the Issuer that is not held by a non-employee director of the Issuer and each PSU of the Issuer that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into an RSU award in respect of a number of shares of Parent common stock, rounded to the nearest whole share, equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Issuer common stock subject to such Issuer RSU or PSU, as applicable (with the number of shares subject to an Issuer PSU determined in accordance with the applicable award agreement), as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (ii) 0.1168 (each such assumed Issuer RSU or PSU, as so adjusted, a "Adjusted RSU"). Any Adjusted RSU is subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to the corresponding Issuer RSU or PSU prior to the Effective Time, except that any Adjusted RSU corresponding to an Issuer PSU is no longer subject to any performance-based vesting conditions. At the Effective Time, pursuant to the Merger Agreement and subject to certain exceptions, each share of Issuer common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into the right to receive, without interest and at the holder's election, either (i) an amount in cash equal to $24.00 or (ii) 0.1168 shares of Parent common stock (except that any fractional shares were instead replaced by the right to receive a corresponding cash amount).
