- F2: RSUs granted Nov 12, 2024 (Amended & Restated 2021 LTIP) — same acceleration/delay circumstances.

Context
These transactions are routine tax-withholding actions tied to RSU settlement and an accelerated vesting event following the reporting person’s retirement; they do not necessarily signal buying or selling intent. For retail investors, purchases or open-market sales by insiders tend to be more informative about sentiment than tax-related share surrenders.
