Insights
TL;DR: Director Castleberry's Old Point holdings were fully converted at merger terms, leaving no Old Point shares outstanding for the reporting person.
The Form 4 discloses a post-merger disposition of 11,560 Old Point shares tied to the TowneBank merger. The filing confirms restricted shares fully vested at the Effective Time and were converted per the merger consideration formula. From a governance perspective, this is a routine reporting of merger consideration and share conversion rather than a voluntary open-market sale by the director.
TL;DR: Transaction reflects merger consideration mechanics: cash or stock election with proration and cash-out of fractional shares.
The disclosure explicitly ties the disposition to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, which provided $41.00 cash or 1.14 TowneBank shares per Old Point share. The filing notes market closing prices on August 29, 2025 (Old Point $42.10; TowneBank $36.69) to explain fractional-share cash treatment. This confirms standard merger settlement procedures were followed for equity holders.
