Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-09-29; Form 4 filed: 2026-10-01 (appears timely under Form 4 rules).
• Transaction type/code: Award/Grant (A); amount: 8,333 DSUs; price reported: $0.00.
• Shares/units owned after transaction: not specified in the provided filing excerpt.
• Footnotes: F1 — Each DSU is the economic equivalent of one common share but underlying common shares will not be issued and the reporting person has no voting or dispositive rights until separation as a director. F2 — The DSUs vested immediately upon issuance and do not expire.

Context

• DSUs are a form of deferred compensation tied to the company’s common stock value; they are derivative awards rather than an open-market purchase or sale. Because the underlying shares are not issued and voting rights are withheld until the director leaves the board, this grant is primarily a compensation event rather than a direct market signal of the director buying or selling stock.
