Context
These are derivative compensation awards (LTIP Units), not open‑market purchases or sales. They typically represent long‑term incentive compensation and vest over time; they can be converted into partnership units and ultimately redeemed for cash or shares per the company’s conversion/redemption rules. As a 10% owner, Levinson’s holdings are reported under insider rules, but the grants reflect company compensation arrangements rather than a direct market buy or sell.
