Context
This was a compensation-related grant (restricted stock), not an open-market purchase or sale. Restricted grants to directors are common annual compensation and vest over time contingent on continued service; they do not necessarily signal the director’s near-term trading intent. The reported $0.00 acquisition price reflects that the shares were issued as compensation rather than bought.
