Rule 10b5-1 trading plan regulatory
"The sales reported in this Form 4 were effected pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan"
A Rule 10b5-1 trading plan is a pre-arranged schedule that allows company insiders to buy or sell stock at specific times, even if they have inside information. It helps prevent accusations of unfair trading by making these transactions look planned and transparent, rather than sneaky or illegal.

"The price reflected is the weighted-average sale price for stock sold."
Redomiciliation regulatory
"The Redomiciliation had the effect of changing Wave-Singapore's domicile"
Redomiciliation is when a company legally changes its country of incorporation while keeping the same business and assets, like moving a house to a new neighborhood but keeping the same furniture. Investors care because the company then follows a different set of laws and tax rules, which can change shareholder rights, reporting standards, dividend treatment and the ease of trading the stock, potentially affecting risk and return.
