• Amount: 14 units at $71.38 per unit — total value ~$999.
• Shares owned after the transaction: Not specified in the provided filing details.
• Footnote (F1): These are dividend equivalent units accrued as dividends on the common shares underlying restricted stock units (RSUs). They vest, settle, and expire on the same terms as the related RSUs; each unit is the economic equivalent of one share.

• Dividend-equivalent units are a form of compensation tied to RSUs and reflect dividends that accrue on those awards; they generally do not indicate an insider buying or selling stock in the open market. This small, routine award is typically part of director compensation rather than a market signal.
