Under the Repurchase Plan, the Company may, but is not required to, repurchase up to an aggregate of $100 million of shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock. The actual timing and method of any purchases, the target number of shares and the maximum price (or range of prices) under the Repurchase Plan, will be determined by management in its discretion and will depend on a number of factors, including the market price of the Company’s common stock, general market and economic conditions, and applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

The purchase authorizations granted under the Repurchase Plan will terminate either on the date on which the maximum dollar amount is repurchased under the Repurchase Plan or on January 31, 2026, whichever date occurs earlier. The Repurchase Plan will be conducted pursuant to a written plan and is intended to comply with Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

On March 21, 2024, the Company issued a press release (the “Press Release”) announcing the Repurchase Plan. A copy of the Press Release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
