Context
- These transactions are awards/settlements of long‑term incentive plan (LTIP) units and a routine withholding to cover taxes. The acquisitions are non-cash awards (A = award/grant) and the withheld shares (F = payment of tax liability) are a standard administrative action, not an open‑market sale by the insider. Filing timing indicates a delayed Form 4 submission (filed 4 days after the transaction date).
