Context
- These were dispositions as part of a corporate merger/tender offer — not open-market sales. The per-share cash price and CVR structure were set by the merger agreement rather than market trades.
- The CVRs are non-tradeable and contingent; any additional payments depend on the CVR agreement and are not guaranteed.
- Footnote 3 indicates some options were cancelled without payment, which can affect an insider’s remaining equity exposure.
