This was an award of compensation (shares issued instead of a cash retainer), not an open-market purchase or sale.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-02-01; Form 4 filed: 2026-02-03 (filed within the typical two-business-day window).
• Amount: 296 shares; reported acquisition price: $0.00 (award).
• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided filing.
• Footnote: the reporting person elected to receive fully vested shares in lieu of cash retainer; the number of shares equals the cash fee divided by the issuer’s closing stock price on the payment date, rounded up to the nearest whole share. (See footnote F1.)
• Transaction type: A = Award/Grant (routine director compensation), not a sale or purchase signaling market sentiment.

Context
Receiving shares in lieu of cash retainers is a common, routine form of director compensation and does not by itself indicate the director is increasing or decreasing a personal position in the company. Because these shares were fully vested at issuance, there was no option exercise or subsequent sale reported in this filing.
