The transaction is coded as an award/acquisition (A) and represents phantom stock under the issuer’s directors’ compensation plan rather than an immediate open‑market purchase.
Key Details

- Payment timing (per footnote): Phantom shares become payable in Class A common shares promptly after termination of Board service, payable either in a lump sum or in up to five annual installments as elected by the director.
- Filing: Form 4 filed 2026-06-17 for a 2026-06-15 transaction (appears to be filed within the typical two‑business‑day window).
- Ownership after transaction: Not specified in the filing.
- Other footnotes of note:
- F1/F2: The filing discloses certain shares held in the reporting person’s and spouse’s IRAs were inadvertently omitted from prior Section 16 filings.

- F5: Includes 574 shares acquired since June 18, 2025 via the dividend reinvestment feature of the Directors Stock Compensation Plan.
Context
Director awards of phantom stock are a common form of board compensation. Because these are derivative/phantom shares that vest/payable upon termination of board service, they do not represent an immediate market purchase or sale of stock and therefore don’t directly signal a near‑term trading intent.
