Context
This was a performance-unit vesting and related tax-withholding event, not an open-market sell driven by personal liquidity. Withholding shares (code F) are a common, administrative step to satisfy tax obligations when equity awards vest. The payment reflects strong performance on the TSR metric (200% payout) for the award cycle that began in 2023.
