Context
This was a compensation award (RSUs), not an open-market purchase or sale. RSU grants are common for executives and directors as part of long-term compensation; economic value is realized only if and when the awards vest and convert to shares. This Form 4 reports the grant itself rather than any immediate cash transaction.
