Context
- These were vesting/conversion events and new grants (awards), not open‑market purchases or sales. Derivative/“M” entries reflect conversion/settlement of RSUs and dividend-equivalent rights rather than exercised-and-sold option transactions. Awards paid to satisfy retainer or as director compensation are routine and do not by themselves indicate a personal market view.
