Context

• This was an option grant (award), not an exercise or open‑market purchase. A grant gives the insider the right to buy shares later (within the stated exercise window) under the terms of the plan and option agreement.
• Grants are common for directors and executives as compensation; they do not by themselves indicate immediate buying or selling of stock.
