Pursuant to the authorization, repurchases may be made from time to time using a variety of methods, including open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or by other means in accordance with U.S. securities laws and regulations, including pursuant to Rule 10b-18 and under plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
