Buy Plan / Sale Plan: These are also open market purchases/sales of shares, but in this case the transaction is part of a trading plan. Rule 10b5-1 allows insiders to setup a trading plan to buy/sell stocks over a certain period of time. Since the purchases/sales are predetermined, this protects the insiders from violating insider trading law.

Transaction was made pursuant to a contract, instruction or written plan for the purchase or sale of equity securities of the issuer that is intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c).
