The Agreement will allow the Company's Rule 10b-18 share repurchase program, which was announced on October 23, 2012, to continue during periods in which the Company may be aware of material non-public information. The authorization for the program ends on May 31, 2014.
The Agreement contains terms customary for agreements of this type. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, JPMS, as agent for the Company, will purchase varying percentages of the maximum daily target volume allowable under Rule 10b-18 when the Company's common stock is trading at various price ranges. Any purchases under the Agreement will be disclosed publicly through periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The description of the Agreement in this Item 1.01 is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
Share repurchases will funded from available working capital.
