With respect to 2,058 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.

Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) financial

"represents the Reporting Person's annual grant of a Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) award"

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.
