Context
An "A" (award/grant) is a derivative acquisition — commonly a grant of restricted stock or stock units — and is different from an open-market purchase or option exercise. Awards signal that the company granted equity to a director but do not, by themselves, indicate buying or selling intent in the market. For full vesting, restriction, or tax details, review the complete Form 4 filing.
