Context
These entries reflect routine director compensation (restricted stock unit credits, fee deferrals and dividend reinvestment) rather than market purchases or sales. Deferred shares and RSU/dividend credits generally settle later per the director’s deferral election or upon leaving the Board, so they do not indicate an immediate cash transaction or sale.
