The notice shows methods and dates associated with potential dispositions, not guarantees of sale execution.

The excerpt explicitly ties one proposed sale to cash exercise and labels plan-derived shares as restricted stock units with their grant date. It lists the broker as Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, indicating the intermediary named for potential transactions.
