Context
- These are company compensation awards (not purchases or sales). Grants are common part of executive pay and typically vest over time or upon performance goals, so they don't represent immediate cash proceeds or sales.
- The derivative awards include time-based and performance-based components; performance shares only convert to actual shares if performance goals are met at the end of the performance period.
