restricted Common Stock financial

"Represents the grant of restricted Common Stock that will vest in full"

Restricted common stock is company shares that carry limits on selling or transferring for a set period or until certain conditions are met, like time-based vesting or regulatory clearance. Think of them as shares in a locked box that gradually open; they can become freely tradable later but initially reduce the number of shares available on the market. Investors watch restricted stock because its eventual release can change a company’s share supply, affect stock price, and influence control and dilution.

vesting financial

"that will vest in full on the earlier of (i) the first anniversary"

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.

annual meeting of stockholders financial

"on the date of the next annual meeting of stockholders that is at least 50 weeks"

continued service financial

"subject to continued service through the applicable vesting date"
