Stock Option (Right to Buy) financial

"security_title is reported as Stock Option (Right to Buy)"

exercise price financial

"conversion_or_exercise_price is disclosed as 1.1300 per share"

The exercise price is the fixed amount at which you can buy or sell an asset, like a stock, when using an options contract. It matters because it helps determine whether exercising the option will be profitable or not, depending on the current market price. Think of it as the set price you agree on today to buy or sell later.

vesting financial

"1/36th of the shares subject to such option vest and become exercisable"

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.

continuous service financial

"subject to the Reporting Person's continuous service to the Issuer"
