10b5-1 Plan and Significance
The sales were conducted pursuant to a pre-arranged Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted on December 8, 2025. Because this was a simultaneous option exercise and sale where the options were set to expire in February 2027, the reporting person's direct common stock balance remained neutral at 9,938 shares (which includes 1,424 unvested restricted stock awards).
In addition to direct holdings, Maduck maintains indirect ownership of 109,717 shares through trusts and family investment entities (Living Trust, GRATs, and LLCs). Given the non-discretionary 10b5-1 execution and zero reduction in net base direct equity, the market signal is considered Low.
