Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-07-09; filing date: 2026-07-10 (timely).
• Instrument & amount: 43.311 shares (derivative) @ $17.35, total ≈ $751.
• Transaction code: J — other acquisition/disposition (derivative).
• Footnotes: The entry reflects participation in a non‑qualified deferred compensation plan (F1/F2). The plan’s investment option is valued by reference to BCI common shares but the plan and participant do not own actual shares; payouts/exercisability occur only on termination, retirement, or other plan‑permitted events. Plan holdings may be reallocated by participants.
• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided filing summary.

Context

• This was an allocation into a deferred-compensation investment option that tracks the company’s stock value (a notional or bookkeeping position), not a market purchase of shares. Such entries are typically routine and reflect compensation deferral choices rather than open‑market buying or selling of stock.
