Context

• This is a compensation award (RSUs) to a director, not a purchase or sale of existing shares; such awards are common for board compensation and do not necessarily signal a personal market view.
• Because the RSUs are vested but settled only on termination or change of control, Sherman does not receive tradable shares immediately.
