Context
These transactions are cash‑outs tied to a merger/tender offer (not open‑market purchases or voluntary insider sales). RSUs and certain options were cancelled and settled for cash under the merger terms rather than being exercised into stock — a common outcome in change‑of‑control deals. This filing documents disposition/settlement; it does not provide insight into the CEO’s future view of the company.
