LegalZoom (NASDAQ: LZ) director receives 8,297-share RSU-based equity grant

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

LEGALZOOM.COM, INC. director John Francis Murphy received an equity grant of 8,297 shares on January 15, 2026. The Form 4 shows these shares of common stock were acquired directly at a reference price of $10.1232 per share, bringing his directly held beneficial ownership to 78,250 shares after the transaction.

According to the company’s Eligible Director Compensation Policy, Murphy elected to receive his annual fiscal 2026 cash retainer in the form of restricted stock units instead of cash. The number of RSUs was calculated by dividing his expected 2026 cash retainer by the average closing price of LegalZoom’s stock over the 30‑day period ending five days before the grant date. These RSUs will vest in four quarterly installments on the last trading day of each fiscal quarter in 2026, so long as he continues serving as a director on each vesting date.
