Context

• RSUs are equity compensation that convert to shares when they vest; no cash was paid by the director at grant. Such annual "refresh" director grants are common and intended as compensation, so they are routine rather than a direct buy/sell signal about the director's market view. Tax withholding or share retention policies may affect how many shares are ultimately received at vesting.
