After the reported allocation, the Directors' Trust held 26,536.1024 shares of RLI common stock. This total reflects adjustments for a 2-for-1 stock split on 01/15/25 and includes shares accumulated through dividend reinvestment as noted in the filing footnotes.

What is the nature of Debbie Sharell Roberts’ ownership in RLI shares?

The reported RLI shares are held indirectly through a Directors' Trust rather than directly by Debbie Sharell Roberts. The filing classifies her ownership as indirect (I), with the trust designated as the nature of beneficial ownership in the transaction table.

What does the transaction code J mean in the RLI Form 4 filing?

In this RLI Form 4, the transaction is labeled with code J, and the footnote explains that the securities were allocated pursuant to the RLI Corp. Non-Employee Directors Deferred Compensation Plan. This indicates an allocation under a compensation arrangement rather than an open-market purchase.

How did the 2-for-1 stock split affect the reported RLI share holdings?

The filing states that reported share amounts were adjusted to reflect a 2-for-1 stock split on 01/15/25. This means the share figures in the Form 4 already incorporate the split, doubling pre-split quantities when presenting the current beneficial ownership.

Why do RLI share holdings in the Form 4 include fractional shares?

The RLI Form 4 shows fractional share holdings because ownership reflects dividend reinvestment. Under dividend reinvestment programs, cash dividends are used to buy additional shares, which can result in fractional share amounts like 425.6044 or 26,536.1024 shares.
