Class C Google Stock Units financial
"Class C Google Stock Units (GSUs) entitle the Reporting Person to receive one share"
vesting financial
"Vesting of GSU grant of which was previously reported in Form 4"
Vesting is the process by which you earn full ownership of something, like company stock or a retirement benefit, over time. It’s like earning the right to keep a gift piece by piece the longer you stay with a company, making sure employees stay committed before they receive all the benefits.
Irrevocable Trust financial
"the RAPP 2024 Irrevocable Trust"
An irrevocable trust is a legal arrangement where an owner transfers assets into a separate entity managed by a trustee and gives up the power to modify or reclaim those assets. For investors it matters because putting stock or other holdings into such a trust can change who controls and benefits from the assets, affect taxes and creditor protection, and influence how easy it is to sell or value those holdings—like placing valuables in a locked safe overseen by someone else.
