Phantom Stock financial

"Each share of phantom stock represents an economic interest equivalent of 10 BD Units"

A phantom stock is a form of compensation that gives employees or executives the benefits of stock ownership, such as the increase in stock value, without actually giving them real shares. It acts like a promise to pay the employee the equivalent value of company stock later, often as a bonus or incentive. This allows companies to motivate and reward staff without diluting ownership or transferring actual shares.

Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") financial

"These securities reported herein are held in the form of Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs")"

Restricted stock units (RSUs) are a company promise to give an employee shares of stock (or cash equivalent) in the future, but only after certain conditions—usually staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance goals—are met. Investors watch RSUs because when they vest they increase the number of shares outstanding and can lead insiders to sell shares, affecting share price, company dilution and the true cost of employee pay.

BD Units financial

"Each RSU represents 10 BD Units. Each BD Unit consists of one Series B Share"

Series D-B Shares financial

"Each BD Unit consists of one Series B Share, two Series D-B Shares and two Series D-L Shares"
