Context

• These transactions are awards (not open-market purchases or sales). Grants and PRSUs are compensation tools and do not necessarily indicate the insider’s short-term view of the stock. The surrender of shares to cover taxes is routine and common on vesting. PRSUs are performance-contingent and may result in a different number of shares vesting (0–200% of target) depending on TSR through the performance period.
