Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-03-15; reported on Form 4 filed 2026-03-17 (timely filing).
• Award: 21,221 RSUs; reported price: $0.00.
• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the filing.
• Footnote: The RSUs vest ratably on the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date, contingent on continued service (see footnote F1).

Context
RSUs are a form of compensation that convert to shares as they vest; they do not represent an immediate sale or purchase and typically reflect pay/retention incentives rather than an open‑market investment signal. The reported grant will only result in actual shares for Sakamoto if he remains employed through the scheduled vesting dates.
