Context

• These entries reflect an award vesting (A/derivative conversion) and a routine sell-to-cover tax withholding. For RSU settlements, it is common for insiders to sell a portion of the vested shares immediately to cover taxes; such sales generally do not signal a change in conviction about the company.
• The derivative entries indicate conversion/settlement of RSUs into common shares; the open-market sale is the actual disposition of a portion of those shares.
