Context

• RSU grants are a form of compensation, not a cash purchase or sale; they vest over time (per the footnote) and may be settled in shares or net of shares for tax withholding when they vest. Such awards are routine executive compensation and do not by themselves indicate buying or selling intent in the open market.
