- With respect to 1,046 shares, represents the grant of fully-vested restricted stock that the Reporting Person elected to receive in lieu of cash compensation under the Issuer's Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy. Grant reflects director compensation for the second quarter of 2026. The number of shares received in lieu of cash 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. With respect to 21,253 shares, represents the Reporting Person's annual grant of a Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) award under the Issuer's Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy.

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.

Restricted Stock Unit 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 is a promise from a company to give an employee shares of stock after certain conditions are met, like staying with the company for a set amount of time. It’s like earning a bonus that turns into company stock once you’ve proven your commitment, making it a way to motivate and reward employees.
Rule 10b5-1 trading plan regulatory
"The sales reported on this Form 4 were effected pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, adopted March 20, 2026"
A Rule 10b5-1 trading plan is a pre-arranged schedule that allows company insiders to buy or sell stock at specific times, even if they have inside information. It helps prevent accusations of unfair trading by making these transactions look planned and transparent, rather than sneaky or illegal.
weighted average price financial
"The reported price 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.
