Context
These were not open‑market sales but corporate‑merger conversions—Comerica shares and related equity awards were converted/settled into Fifth Third securities under the merger agreement. For retail investors, this is a routine corporate action (disposition to the issuer due to a merger) rather than an insider selling into the market; the economic exposure continued as converted Fifth Third shares/options.
