The timing of the repurchases and the number of shares repurchased under the program will depend on a variety of factors including price, trading volume, corporate and regulatory requirements, and market conditions. The Board further authorized Management to enter into a 10b5-1 Plan with a nationally recognized broker-dealer to facilitate share repurchases as appropriate.
