Director Deferral Plan financial
"pursuant to the Company's Director Deferral Plan) to defer the reporting person's annual cash retainer"
A director deferral plan lets board members delay receiving part or all of their pay—typically fees or equity—until a later date, with the deferred amount converted to cash or units that are paid out on a set future date or event. For investors, it signals how a company manages present cash flow and aligns directors’ interests with long-term performance, while creating future payment obligations or possible share dilution when those deferred amounts are settled—like choosing to take a future pension or stock grant instead of a paycheck today.
deferred share units financial
"into deferred share units that will be distributed in the form of the Company's common stock"
Deferred share units are promises that give an executive or director the right to receive company shares or their cash value at a future date, often when they retire or leave the company. Think of them as a paycheck held in a savings account that converts into stock later; they matter to investors because they tie pay to long-term performance, create potential future dilution of shares, and represent a delayed cash or share obligation the company must eventually fulfill.
