- On June 8, 2026, INSW granted the Reporting Person pursuant to the International Seaways 2025 Management Incentive Plan (the "2025 Plan") 20,542 restricted stock units which units vest as to one-third of such units on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of the grant. Each unit represents the right to acquire one share of Common Stock. Settlement of vested units which may be in either shares of Common Stock or cash as determined by the Human Resources and Compensation Committee of the Board in its discretion, and will be net of any shares deducted for applicable taxes and other withholdings. On June 8, 2026, INSW granted the Reporting Person pursuant to the 2025 Plan, 20,542 performance restricted stock units (PRSUs). Achievement under the PRSUs will be measured using an operating performance metric (return on invested capital, or ROIC) and a market performance metric (total shareholder return, or TSR, relative to the TSR or a peer group or companies), in each case measured over the three-year period beginning on January 2, 2026 and ending on December 31, 2028. Each metric relates to half of the PRSUs granted. These PRSUs represent the right to receive an equivalent number of shares of INSW Common Stock (net of any shares deducted for applicable taxes and other withholdings) if and when the PRSUs vest, assuming a performance factor of 100% achievement. The PRSU grants are subject (so long as at least the minimum performance threshold is achieved) to increase or decrease pursuant to a performance factor that may range from 50% to 150%. The number of shares vesting, if any, will be reported after the Compensation Committee of the Issuer's Board of Directors certifies the achievement of the applicable performance metric following the end of the measurement period.

restricted stock units financial
"INSW granted the Reporting Person ... 20,542 restricted stock units which units vest as to one-third..."
Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.
performance restricted stock units financial
"INSW granted the Reporting Person ... 20,542 performance restricted stock units (PRSUs). Achievement under the PRSUs..."
Performance restricted stock units (PRSUs) are promises to deliver company shares to employees or executives only if the business meets specific performance targets and any time-based holding rules. Think of them as a bonus that converts into stock only after set goals are reached, so investors watch PRSUs for two reasons: they can dilute existing shares if paid out, and they signal how closely management’s pay is tied to company performance.
return on invested capital financial
"Achievement under the PRSUs will be measured using an operating performance metric (return on invested capital, or ROIC)..."
A percentage that shows how effectively a company turns the money invested in its business—both borrowed funds and shareholders’ equity—into operating profit after taxes. It tells investors whether a company earns more from its core operations than it costs to fund those operations; think of it like the annual return you’d expect from renovating a rental property—higher percentages mean the company uses capital more efficiently and is more likely to create value for shareholders.
peer group financial
"TSR, relative to the TSR or a peer group or companies), in each case measured over the three-year period..."
Compensation Committee financial
"will be reported after the Compensation Committee of the Issuer's Board of Directors certifies the achievement..."
A compensation committee is a group within a company's leadership responsible for setting and reviewing how much top executives and employees are paid, including salaries, bonuses, and benefits. It matters to investors because fair and effective pay decisions can influence a company's performance, leadership motivation, and overall governance, helping ensure that the company’s management is aligned with shareholders’ interests.
