Context
RSUs are a form of compensation, not an open-market purchase or sale: the grantee does not receive shares (or cash) until the units vest. Because these are awards tied to future vesting, they don't necessarily indicate near-term buying or selling sentiment by the insider. Tax withholding or other settlement mechanics at vesting were not detailed in the filing.
