Context
These awards are grants of restricted and performance-based units (derivatives) that convert to shares only if time-vesting or performance conditions are met. Grants at $0 are common corporate compensation and are not the same as an insider buying or selling shares; they reflect compensation and retention incentives rather than an immediate market transaction.
