Why it may matter

• These were equity awards and an option grant, not open-market purchases or sales.
• The RSUs and option have specific vesting schedules (described above); some RSUs or option portions were vested on the grant date and others vest later or upon a change in control.
• A filing does not show why the insider traded or why the company acted.
