Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) financial

"The Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) shall vest over a four-year period..."

Restricted stock units (RSUs) are a type of company promise to give employees shares of stock in the future, usually after certain conditions like working for a set time. They are like a gift promised today that you receive later, which can become valuable if the company's stock price goes up. RSUs matter because they are a way companies reward employees and can be a significant part of compensation.

Continuous Service financial

"subject to such Reporting Person's Continuous Service (as defined in the Issuer's 2021 Equity Incentive Plan)..."

2021 Equity Incentive Plan financial

"Continuous Service (as defined in the Issuer's 2021 Equity Incentive Plan) through each such date."
