restricted stock units financial
"Represents the grant of time-based restricted stock units ("RSUs"), which are contingent rights"
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.
LTIP Units financial
"designated as LTIP Units ("LTIP Units") under the Agreement of Limited Partnership"
LTIP units are awards given to executives and employees as part of a long-term incentive plan; they act like deferred bonuses that convert into company shares or cash only if the business meets set performance or time requirements. Investors care because LTIP units tie management pay to future results, can increase the number of outstanding shares (dilution) when they vest, and create ongoing compensation expense that can affect earnings and shareholder value.
Partnership Common Units financial
"each vested LTIP Unit may be converted, at the election of the holder, on a one-for-one basis to Partnership Common Units"
tax withholding obligations financial
"Represents shares withheld by the Issuer in satisfaction of tax withholding obligations resulting from the vesting"

FAQ

What equity awards did Lineage (LINE) grant to CHRO Burlage Kelly?

Lineage granted Burlage Kelly 1,220 time-based restricted stock units and 1,221 LTIP Units. Each RSU and LTIP Unit represents a potential one-for-one interest in common shares, subject to vesting, service conditions, and, for LTIP Units, partnership capital account requirements and conversion mechanics.

How do Burlage Kelly’s new RSUs at Lineage (LINE) vest over time?

Kelly’s 1,220 restricted stock units vest in three equal annual installments. One-third vests on April 1, 2027, another third on April 1, 2028, and the final third on April 1, 2029, provided Kelly continues serving at Lineage through each respective vesting date.

What happened with the 1,516 Lineage (LINE) shares shown as a disposition?

The 1,516 shares were withheld by Lineage to cover tax withholding obligations arising from restricted stock unit vesting. This “F” code transaction is a tax-withholding disposition, not an open-market sale, and reflects shares delivered to the issuer rather than sold into the market.

How many Lineage (LINE) common shares does Burlage Kelly hold after these transactions?

After the April 1, 2026 transactions, Burlage Kelly directly holds 12,174.16 shares of Lineage common stock. This figure reflects the new RSU-related share grant and the 1,516 shares withheld by the company for tax obligations associated with the vesting of prior restricted stock units.

How can Burlage Kelly’s LTIP Units at Lineage eventually convert into common stock?

Each vested LTIP Unit may be converted on a one-for-one basis into Partnership Common Units after certain capital account conditions. At least 18 months after grant, those Partnership Common Units can be redeemed for cash or, at Lineage’s election, exchanged for common shares one-for-one, subject to adjustments.
