The Company has provided engineering and financial support to the project totaling $7.5 million, including development costs incurred by the project VIE.  Recovery of the Company&#8217;s investment has been predicated on the successful completion of all project development efforts, of which the most significant current hurdle has been establishment of a fuel-supply source for the plant.  The Company has determined that it will not provide additional financial support to develop the project.  Lack of progress on fuel supply issues has significantly diminished the likelihood of the project to achieve its remaining development milestones including the arrangement of financing for the project.  Accordingly, the Company will record a pre-tax impairment loss related to the investment in an amount estimated to range between $6.5 million to $8.3 million in January 2022, of which approximately $2.0 million is attributable to its consolidated VIE.  </span></p><p style="font-family:'Arial','Helvetica','sans-serif';font-size:10pt;line-height:1.19;margin:0pt 0pt 8pt 0pt;"><b style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:12pt;font-weight:bold;white-space:pre-wrap;background:#ffffff;">Item 9.01.

As a result, with the meaningful free cash flow from our business, we expect to maintain share repurchasing as an opportunistic part of our capital allocation strategy.&#8221;</font></p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;text-align:justify;margin:0pt 0pt 8pt 0pt;"><font style="font-size:12pt;">The Board&#8217;s authorization permits the Company to make purchases of its Common Stock from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, subject to market and other conditions, up to the aggregate amount authorized by the Board.
