Context
Phantom stock units are a form of deferred compensation that mirror the economic value of common shares but do not represent issued company stock today. According to the filing footnote, each phantom unit equals one share economically and becomes payable (in stock or cash, per the holder's election) when the director leaves board service. Because these are deferred-compensation awards, they are routine board compensation and do not reflect an open-market purchase or sale of common stock.
