Context

• This was an insider award (not an open-market buy or sale). Awards with multi-year vesting are common for compensation and retention; because these shares vest over time, they do not represent immediate liquidity or a contemporaneous market view by the director. The derivative designation indicates the grant is made under the company’s equity plan (e.g., restricted stock units or similar), rather than a straight stock purchase.
