Form 144 regulatory

"144: Filer Information | 144: Issuer Information"

Form 144 is a document that investors must file with the government when they plan to sell a large number of shares of a company's stock. It helps ensure transparency so everyone knows how many shares are being sold and when, which can impact the stock's price.

10b5-1 Sales regulatory

"10b5-1 Sales for SUNG LEE 350 OYSTER POINT BOULEVARD"

10b5-1 sales are pre-arranged stock-trading plans that let company insiders automatically buy or sell shares according to a fixed schedule or formula, even if they later learn confidential information. Think of it as setting up an automatic thermostat for trades: it creates a clear, documented path that can protect insiders from insider-trading accusations and gives investors a signal about predictable insider activity—though it can also simply be a way for insiders to diversify or raise cash.
