Context

• Transaction code A denotes a grant or award. The filing shows these awards were disposed the same day, which can reflect immediate sale or transfer of awarded shares; the Form 4 reports the disposition but does not explain the reason (e.g., sale, tax withholding, or transfer).
• As a 10% owner (not an operating executive title), Batten’s transactions reflect owner-level activity and related trust arrangements rather than routine executive compensation.
