Context These dispositions were not standard open-market sales but mandatory cash-outs under the merger agreement: outstanding common shares and RSUs were converted into $2.06 per share cash, and in-the-money options were cancelled for the difference between the merger price and the exercise price ($1.30 per option-share). Such merger-related cash-outs reflect deal terms rather than a director’s discretionary sell/buy decision.
