On June 14, 2019, we announced that the Board approved a capital return program (the “Capital Return Program”) under which we may expend a total of up to $250 million for a share repurchase program and payment of dividends. On February 10, 2020 and October 4, 2021, the Board approved an additional $100 million and $350 million for stock repurchases and payment of dividends, respectively. Share repurchases may be effected in various ways, which could include open-market or private repurchase transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs, tender offers or other transactions.

There is no fixed time period to complete the capital returns.
