Context RSUs are equity awards that convert into common stock (or cash) upon vesting; they are not an open‑market purchase or sale. Because Mr. Heron elected to defer settlement, he will not immediately receive the underlying shares at vesting per the deferral election. Awards and deferrals are common for directors and do not, by themselves, indicate a buy/sell signal.
