SEC Form 4 filing Transaction summary Transaction and post-transaction values based on SEC Form 4 weighted average reported price ($11.02).

Compared to earlier transactions (sell-only trade sizes ranging from 20,459 to 29,612 shares), this exercise and sale is materially larger, but the increase is explained by the option-derived liquidity, rather than a discretionary escalation in disposition pattern. – Does Hall retain indirect or other class holdings following this transaction? No shares are held indirectly; however, Hall retains 300,000 options, which can be converted into Common Stock, ensuring a meaningful continuing beneficial ownership stake.
