The filing also records two grant/award entries totaling 12,578 derivative units and "other" dispositions of 2,438 shares (zero cash value).

Context
- These entries reflect vesting/settlement of RSU/market-share and performance-share awards and routine tax-withholding (a common, non‑sentiment indicator). The M code reflects exercise/conversion of derivatives; F indicates shares withheld/used to pay taxes; A indicates grants/awards; J indicates other acquisitions/dispositions.
- No open‑market sales by the insider were reported in this filing — the transaction is a net settlement of awards rather than a sale intended as liquidity or investment signal.
