Dividend equivalent rights mentioned mean the award includes cash/equivalent payments aligned with dividends and will vest or be exercisable as the underlying DSUs/RSUs vest. As a 10% owner (rather than a standard employee title), this filing reflects ownership reporting requirements and not necessarily routine executive trading activity.
