At-the-Market Program (“ATM Program”)

The Company enters into ATM Programs through which it may, from time to time, publicly offer and sell shares of common stock. The Company’s ATM Programs also provide for forward sale agreements, enabling the Company to set the price of shares upon pricing the offering, while delaying the issuance of shares and the receipt of the net proceeds. In May 2024, the Company replaced its prior $400.0 million ATM Program (“2021 ATM Program”) with a new $400.0 million ATM Program (“2024 ATM Program”), and the 2021 ATM Program was simultaneously terminated.

Stock Repurchase Program

The Company has a stock repurchase program (the “Repurchase Program”), which authorizes the Company to repurchase up to $150.0 million of the Company’s common stock. On March 12, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors re-authorized the Repurchase Program for a 12-month period beginning on March 14, 2024. Under the Repurchase Program, repurchases of the Company’s stock can be made in the open market or through private transactions from time to time over the 12-month period, depending on prevailing market conditions and compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements. The timing, manner, price, and amount of any repurchases of common stock under the Repurchase Program will be determined at the Company’s discretion, using available cash resources. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, no shares of the Company’s common stock were repurchased under the Repurchase Program.
