Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-08-12; Form 4 filed: 2026-08-18 (filed six days after the transaction — outside the typical 2-business-day window).
• Shares/units granted: 30,000 (derivative award) at $0.00 reported price; total reported cash value $0.
• Vesting: Award vests in equal annual installments over three years, beginning on the first anniversary of the grant (per footnote).

• Transaction code: A = grant/award (derivative).

Context This was a compensation-related award (derivative grant) rather than a market purchase or sale. Such grants are common for directors and typically vest over time; they do not by themselves signal immediate buying or selling. Because the Form 4 was filed several days after the grant date, the late filing may be of interest to investors tracking timely insider reporting.
