  • F2: Some amounts reflect dividend equivalents credited as additional RSUs under the Deferral Plan.
  • F3/F4: Other amounts reflect deferred shares from the Deferred Compensation Plan (including dividend reinvestment) that will be settled per the director’s deferral election.

Context
These entries reflect routine non-employee director compensation delivered as RSUs or deferred shares, and several items are deferred for future settlement per the company plans. Awards/grants are common for board members and do not indicate an open-market purchase or sale; they are compensation rather than a trading signal.
