Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) financial
"Represents the Reporting Person's annual grant of a Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) award under the Issuer's Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy."
A restricted stock unit (RSU) is a promise from a company to give an employee company shares (or cash equal to their value) at a future date if certain conditions are met, such as staying with the company or hitting performance targets. For investors, RSUs matter because when they convert into actual shares they increase the number of shares available and can create selling pressure as employees cash out—think of them as a future paycheck paid in company stock.

Class A Common Stock financial
"Each of these RSUs represents a contingent right to receive one share of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock upon settlement."
Class A common stock is a category of a company’s shares that carries a specific set of ownership rights—most commonly defined voting power and claims on dividends—set out in the company’s charter. For investors it matters because the class determines how much influence you have over corporate decisions, the share’s likely dividend and trading behavior, and how it compares in value to other share classes, like choosing a particular seat with different privileges at the company’s decision-making table.

"In the event a director is up for re-election at the Issuer's next annual meeting of stockholders and is not elected to continue serving, the shares shall be deemed fully vested."

Each of these RSUs represents a contingent right to receive one share of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock upon settlement. The number of RSUs granted was calculated by dividing the applicable value of the equity by the average closing price of our common stock over the 30 consecutive trading days immediately preceding July 1, 2026, rounded down to the nearest whole share. The shares shall vest in full on July 1, 2027; provided, however, that in the event a director is up for re-election at the Issuer's next annual meeting of stockholders and is not elected to continue serving as a member of the board of directors at such annual meeting of stockholders, the shares shall be deemed fully vested on that annual meeting date.
