Context

• "Derivative" here means the disposition involved securities tied to derivative instruments (for example, options held of record by Fertitta Entertainment, LLC per the footnote). The filing does not specify an options exercise or a cashless exercise; it only reports the sale of derivative-linked shares. As a 10% owner rather than a named company executive, these trades reflect the activity of a major shareholder entity rather than routine corporate insider trades. The filing provides facts about the transactions but does not state the insider’s motivation.
