The Eleventh Amendment amends the Company’s Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement to a) permit the Company to repurchase up to $20 million of Company securities in its fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2023 and, b) exclude the applicable ratio of Net Income Available for Fixed Charges to Fixed Charges for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2023.

The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the stock price, corporate and regulatory requirements, available funds, alternative uses of capital, restrictions under the Revolving Credit Agreement, and other market and economic conditions.
