• Price per share: $5.31; shares granted: 94; total value ≈ $499
• Shares owned after transaction: not disclosed in the provided filing

Context Director awards in lieu of cash are a common form of compensation and do not by themselves signal a buy or sell preference. Because these shares are fully vested and carry voting/dividend rights, they immediately increase the director’s equity stake and voting power, but they should be viewed as routine compensation unless combined with other trading activity.
