unvested RSUs financial

"1 share is attributable to the Reporting Person's unvested RSUs and remains subject"

vesting conditions financial

"remains subject to the same vesting conditions as the underlying RSUs"

Vesting conditions are the rules that determine when someone earning company stock or stock options actually gains the right to keep or sell them, typically based on staying with the company for a set time or meeting performance targets. Think of it like keys that unlock gradually — some unlock by calendar date, others only after agreed milestones. Investors care because vesting shapes management incentives, the timing of share sales, and the number of shares that can enter the market, which can affect a company's valuation and ownership mix.
