4 terms
Non-Employee Director Deferral Plan financial
"The deferred shares become settleable, in accordance with the Issuer's Non-Employee Director Deferral Plan, when the reporting person ceases to be a director"
change in control financial
"The deferred shares become settleable ... upon a change in control of the Company, or upon death of the reporting person."
A "change in control" occurs when the ownership or management of a company shifts significantly, such as through a merger, acquisition, or sale of a large part of its assets. This change can impact how the company is run and may influence its future direction. For investors, it matters because it can affect the company's stability, strategy, and value, often signaling potential changes in investment risk or opportunity.
derivative financial
"transaction_type": "derivative","transaction_shares": "171.0000""
A derivative is a financial contract whose value depends on the price or performance of another asset or measure — for example a stock, index, interest rate, commodity, or currency. Investors use derivatives like insurance or leveraged bets to hedge risk, speculate, or gain exposure without owning the underlying asset; they can protect portfolios but also amplify losses and introduce counterparty and market risk.
