FAQ

What insider activity did GBTG CTO John David Thompson report on this Form 4?

John David Thompson reported several dispositions of Class A Common Stock. The transactions were coded as tax-withholding events, where shares were delivered to cover obligations tied to vesting restricted stock units rather than open-market sales.

Were John David Thompson’s GBTG stock transactions open-market sales?

The transactions were not open-market sales. They were tax-withholding dispositions, coded "F," meaning shares were delivered to satisfy tax liabilities related to the vesting of restricted stock units granted as equity compensation.

What type of GBTG security did the CTO dispose of in these transactions?

All reported transactions involved GBTG Class A Common Stock. These shares were delivered to meet tax withholding obligations associated with the vesting of restricted stock units rather than being sold in ordinary market trading.

How does the Form 4 describe the nature of GBTG CTO’s dispositions?

Each transaction is described as a "payment of exercise price or tax liability by delivering securities." A footnote clarifies the shares were specifically withheld to cover the reporting person’s tax obligations on vesting restricted stock units.

Does John David Thompson still hold GBTG shares after these tax-withholding events?

Yes. The Form 4 reports that he continued to hold Class A Common Stock directly after the tax-withholding dispositions. The remaining holdings reflect his ongoing equity stake following the vesting-related share deliveries.
