Insights
Insider received 872 RSUs; 274 shares withheld for taxes at $293.26.
This Form 4 discloses a routine equity award and tax withholding rather than an open-market sale. The grant of 872 RSUs increases long-term alignment with shareholders because RSUs vest over time under the issuer’s 2013 Equity Incentive Plan. The withholding of 274 shares to cover taxes is a common administrative step and is reported as an internal remittance rather than a market disposition.
Vesting schedule: 25% on July 1, 2025, then quarterly over one year.
The RSU vesting—25% upfront then quarterly—means the executive’s ownership increases incrementally, tying retention to continued service. The filing confirms the award is governed by the company’s equity plan; no exercise price applies because these are RSUs. The transactions are exempt under Rule 16b-6(b) and Rule 16b-3(e), indicating typical Section 16 compliance for grants and tax withholdings.
