• Footnotes: F1–F3 state Clarke elected to defer his 2026 cash director fees into deferred restricted stock units; the reported price reflects the average of the high and low trading price on the grant date used to determine unit counts; the transactions are awards of deferred RSUs.

Context

• These awards reflect a director compensation deferral election (cash fees converted into deferred RSUs). Such awards are routine for directors and represent deferred compensation rather than an outright purchase or sale of stock. They should be viewed as compensation-related grants, not necessarily a directional signal about the director’s sentiment toward the company.
