Context

• These entries reflect awards and dividend-equivalent credits tied to director deferral plans, not an open-market purchase or exercise of options. Deferred shares and dividend-equivalent RSUs will be settled according to the director’s deferral election (deferred shares under the Deferred Compensation Plan are paid in a single lump-sum of common stock on the March 1 after the director leaves the board). Such credits are routine compensation/deferral plan activity and do not by themselves indicate the director’s view on the company’s near-term stock performance.
