- F2/F5: Some units represent dividend equivalents credited on RSUs/PSUs and will vest/settle to the extent the underlying awards vest.

Context

These were RSU awards and dividend-equivalent units (derivative instruments), not open-market purchases or sales; such awards are compensation-related and don’t necessarily signal the insider’s buy/sell market sentiment.
Because some units are deferred or settled in cash (per footnotes), actual share issuance or cash settlement may occur later and can depend on vesting, plan elections, and performance-vesting conditions.
