FAQ

What insider transaction did UAL director Walter Isaacson report on this Form 4?

Walter Isaacson reported receiving 446.73 share units as a grant on March 31, 2026. These units represent deferred 2026 quarterly retainer fees under United Airlines’ Director Equity Incentive Plan and will convert into common stock on a one-for-one basis after his service ends.

Are Walter Isaacson’s UAL share units an open-market purchase or sale?

The Form 4 shows a grant of 446.73 share units, not an open-market trade. The units represent director retainer fees Isaacson elected to defer into stock-based units under the company’s Director Equity Incentive Plan instead of receiving immediate cash compensation.

How many UAL share units does Walter Isaacson hold after this transaction?

After the March 31, 2026 grant, Walter Isaacson holds 22,276.82 share units. Each share unit is designed to convert into one share of United Airlines common stock, providing equity-based compensation linked directly to the company’s stock price performance over time.

When will Walter Isaacson’s UAL share units be settled into common stock?

The share units will be settled in United Airlines common stock after Isaacson’s separation from service. Settlement timing follows the terms of the Director Equity Incentive Plan, meaning he receives actual shares only once he is no longer serving as a director.

What does a 1-for-1 conversion of UAL share units into common stock mean?

A 1-for-1 conversion means each share unit equals one share of United Airlines common stock at settlement. When Isaacson’s units are settled after his service ends, 446.73 units from this grant would convert into 446.73 common shares, subject to plan terms.
