• Shares owned after the transaction: Not specified in the Form 4 filing.
• Footnote: The award vests in full upon the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of the grant date or (ii) the date of the next Annual Meeting; vesting ceases if the director stops serving unless the Board decides otherwise (see F1).

Context

• This was a compensatory derivative grant (an option/award), not a sale or market purchase. Such grants are common for director compensation and do not by themselves indicate the director is buying or selling shares in the open market. The vesting terms link continued ownership to ongoing service and company milestones (annual meeting or one-year anniversary).
