Context
- This is an equity award (grant of RSUs), not an open-market buy or sale. Awards like this compensate directors and do not by themselves indicate a buy/sell decision in the market. Because the RSUs are contingent on continued service and a vesting event, they only convert to actual shares if and when vested and settled to JANA.
