What Happened

Context
These awards are compensation for Dr. Dzau’s board service, not open‑market purchases or sales. RSUs represent a right to receive shares after vesting; options are rights to buy stock subject to the option terms (exercise price and expiration not specified in the Form 4 summary provided). Because the awards vest on a one‑year schedule, they do not result in immediate share ownership until vesting occurs.
