• Footnote: These are Deferred Stock Units issued under the Arrow Electronics, Inc. Non-Employee Directors Deferred Compensation Plan and are settled one-for-one in common stock upon the director’s death or separation from service.

Context
Deferred stock units for non-employee directors are a form of compensation that converts to common shares at a future triggering event (e.g., separation or death). Because the award vests/settles later, it does not represent an immediate market purchase or sale and should be viewed as part of routine director compensation rather than a current bullish or bearish trading signal.
