Context

• Deferred stock units (DSUs) are awards that typically convert to shares or cash at a later date (often upon separation from service); dividend equivalents are payouts from prior RSU awards that were reinvested as additional units. These are compensation-related awards rather than open-market purchases or sales and are generally routine for directors, so they do not necessarily indicate a change in the director’s market view.
