Context
- Phantom stock is a cash‑settled, deferred compensation award tied to the company's share value; it does not result in immediate issuance of common stock or direct open‑market buying or selling. Because these awards are payable in cash upon departure/retirement (per the filing), this action reflects compensation/retirement plan activity rather than a purchase signal from the director.
