Context
These grants were merger consideration and converted legacy option awards, not open-market purchases or sales. Several option-based awards were accelerated or remain subject to continued service-based vesting schedules; some awards are fully vested. Awards received in mergers are common for executives as part of deal consideration and do not, by themselves, indicate the insider's personal buying or selling intent.
