style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;text-indent:32px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">On April 28, 2016, Align Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (&#8220;Align&#8221;), announced a $300 million stock repurchase program (the &#8220;Stock Repurchase Program&#8221;). On April  25, 2017, our Board of Directors authorized the first $50 million under the program to be repurchased which we anticipate completing by August 3, 2017. On May 2, 2017,  Align entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement (the &#8220;ASR Contract&#8221;) with Wells Fargo, National Association ("Wells Fargo"), to repurchase an aggregate of approximately $50 million of Align&#8217;s common stock.  Under the ASR Contract, Align will make an initial payment of approximately $50 million in the aggregate to Wells Fargo and will receive an initial delivery of approximately 261,000 shares of common stock.  The exact number of shares Align will repurchase under the  ASR Contract will be based generally upon the average daily volume weighted average price of Align&#8217;s common stock during the repurchase period, less a discount and subject to adjustments pursuant to the terms and conditions of the ASR Contract. At settlement, under certain circumstances, Wells Fargo may be required to deliver additional shares of common stock to Align, or under certain circumstances, Align may be required either to deliver shares of common stock or to make a cash payment to </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;background-color:#ffffff;">Wells Fargo.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Final settlement of the transactions under the ASR Contract is expected to occur no later than approximately three months from May 3, 2017. The terms of the accelerated share repurchases under the ASR Contract are subject to adjustment if the Company were to enter into or announce certain types of transactions or to take certain corporate actions. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:16px;text-align:justify;text-indent:32px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The ASR Contract contains the principal terms and provisions governing the accelerated share repurchases, including, but not limited to, the mechanism used to determine the number of shares that will be delivered, the required timing of delivery of the shares, the circumstances under which Wells Fargo is permitted to make adjustments to valuation and calculation periods and various acknowledgements, representations and warranties made by Align, on the one hand, and Wells Fargo, on the other hand, to one another.
