Context

• Deferred stock awards are a common form of director compensation and do not represent a market purchase (so they’re less informative about the director’s view of the company than open-market buys).
• These shares may be subject to the plan’s deferral/distribution rules; the filing does not indicate immediate sale or a change in beneficial ownership beyond the award.
