Context

• This was an award/vesting event (compensation), not an open-market purchase or sale. Restricted unit vesting is a common form of executive compensation and does not necessarily indicate a buying or selling opinion by the insider. The units were finalized and vested rather than bought; no cash-price or immediate sale is reported in this filing.
