• A 10b5-1 plan lets insiders pre-schedule trades and provides an affirmative defense against allegations of trading on material nonpublic information; transactions under such plans are typically routine and not necessarily a signal of changed sentiment. Sales are common and do not carry the same market-signaling weight as open-market purchases.
