Context
RSUs are a form of deferred compensation: they do not represent immediate share ownership until they vest and are settled, and they can be forfeited if the director leaves before the vesting date. Such grants are common for directors and employees and are not direct purchases or sales of stock; they typically dilute existing shareholders only when settled. This filing reports the grant itself and does not indicate any immediate cash transaction or sale.
