Directors' Deferred Compensation Share Credits financial

"Security titled Directors' Deferred Compensation Share Credits was reported acquired."

Outside Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan financial

"Shares granted under the Outside Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan."

dividend reinvestment financial

"Acquired under dividend reinvestment for Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan."

Dividend reinvestment is when the money earned from a company's profit sharing, called dividends, is automatically used to buy more shares of that company instead of being received as cash. This process helps investors grow their holdings over time without extra effort, much like using earned interest to buy more of a savings account. It encourages long-term investment growth by continuously increasing the amount of shares owned.

Outside Directors' Stock Plan financial

"Share Credits credited under the Outside Directors' Stock Plan."

beneficial ownership financial

"The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of these reported securities."

Beneficial ownership means the person or entity that actually enjoys the benefits of owning shares or other assets — such as receiving dividends, voting rights, or price gains — even if the legal title is held in another name. For investors it matters because knowing who truly controls and profits from a company reveals who can influence decisions, exposes potential conflicts of interest or hidden concentration of power, and affects transparency and risk in the stock.
