Context

  • These dispositions are merger-related: outstanding common shares were converted into $2.55 per share cash consideration and many equity awards were canceled or cash-settled under the merger agreement. Dispositions "to the issuer" here reflect surrender/cancellation for merger consideration rather than an open-market sale by the insider.
