Context Deferred stock units are a common form of director compensation. Because these units are rights to future shares (and are not immediate share purchases or sales), they do not necessarily signal a change in the director’s market view. The units are fully vested but delivery is deferred until 2037, so there is no immediate impact on voting power or market float.
