These are the shares Ajit Jain bought with his own money. While he got paid $20 m salary, he would have made more money by working for any other company.
I think he left many $100’s of millions on the table for working at Berkshire.

When such a longterm shareholder sells, the last reason is valuation.
He sold approximately 55% of his stake. This sale was reported to be worth about $139 million, involving 200 of his Class A shares.
