Context

• The 2,000-share entry is an option grant (award) with a one-year vesting schedule — not an immediate cash purchase. The 500-share acquisition and same-day 500-share disposition on 9/15 reflect an RSU vesting event (footnote confirms the RSU vested); same-day disposals in RSU vest/settlement filings commonly reflect share conversion and withholding or disposition to cover taxes or other settlement mechanics, though the filing does not state the reason explicitly. These are routine insider compensation actions rather than open-market purchases or sales.
