- Footnotes: Vesting and settlement relate to RSUs awarded under the Issuer's 2017 Long-Term Incentive Plan (grants from 2023–2025 vest ratably over three years and settle one-for-one into common stock). Withheld shares were used to satisfy tax obligations.

Context
- These transactions are RSU vesting and settlement events (derivative conversion), not open-market purchases or discretionary sales. The withheld-share disposals are routine tax-withholding actions common when RSUs vest (functionally similar to a net settlement rather than an independent sale decision).
- The new 4,482-RSU grant is a derivative award that vests ratably over three years beginning the first anniversary of the grant and does not represent immediate share ownership.
