restricted shares financial

"Consists of restricted shares granted to the Reporting Person pursuant to the Company's 2021 Share Incentive Plan"

Restricted shares are company stock that cannot be sold or transferred immediately because they are subject to legal or contractual limits, such as a required holding period or performance conditions. They matter to investors because these locked-up shares can affect a company’s available stock for trading, future dilution, and insider incentives—imagine a gift that can’t be cashed until certain conditions are met, which changes when and how much supply can suddenly enter the market.

2021 Share Incentive Plan financial

"granted to the Reporting Person pursuant to the Company's 2021 Share Incentive Plan"

vesting financial

"which are delivered on vesting of the shares"

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.

continued service financial

"conditioned on, inter alia, continued service through the applicable vesting date"
