- Represents a restricted stock unit ("RSU") grant made under the Issuer's 2021 Equity Incentive Plan. Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one ordinary share of the Issuer, subject to the Reporting Person's continued service with the Issuer. 25% of the RSUs will vest on April 2, 2027, and the remaining 75% will vest in equal quarterly installments through April 2, 2030. This Form 4/A amends the Form 4 filed on April 3, 2026 to correct the amount reported in Column 5 (Amount of Securities Beneficially Owned Following Reported Transaction), which was previously reported as 56,468 ordinary shares due to an inadvertent error. The correct amount is 148,854 ordinary shares. The share option vests and becomes exercisable as to 25% of the ordinary shares on April 2, 2027, and then in equal monthly installments through April 2, 2030.

5 terms
restricted stock unit ("RSU") financial
"Represents a restricted stock unit ("RSU") grant made under the Issuer's 2021 Equity Incentive Plan."
2021 Equity Incentive Plan financial
"grant made under the Issuer's 2021 Equity Incentive Plan. Each RSU represents a contingent right"
beneficially owned financial
"correct the amount reported in Column 5 (Amount of Securities Beneficially Owned Following Reported Transaction)"
Beneficially owned describes securities or assets where a person has the economic rights and control—such as the right to receive dividends and to direct voting—even if legal title is held in another name. Think of it like having the keys and using a car that’s registered to someone else: you get the benefits and make decisions. Investors care because beneficial ownership reveals who truly controls value and voting power, affecting corporate decisions and takeover dynamics.
vest financial
"25% of the RSUs will vest on April 2, 2027, and the remaining 75% will vest in equal quarterly installments"
A vest is the process by which an employee earns the right to receive certain benefits or ownership interests, such as stock or retirement funds, over time. It’s similar to earning a reward gradually, ensuring that the benefit becomes fully yours only after a set period or meeting specific conditions. This makes it important for investors because it determines when they can actually claim or use those benefits.
