The timing and amount of any share repurchase under the share repurchase plan will be determined by management of the Company based on market conditions and other considerations, and repurchases may be effected in the open market, through derivative, accelerated repurchase and other privately negotiated transactions and through plans designed to comply with Rules 10b-18 or 10b5-1(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The share repurchase plan does not require the Company to acquire any specific number of shares and may be temporarily or permanently suspended or discontinued by the Company at any time. A committee of the board of directors will reevaluate the operation of the plan each fiscal quarter.
