Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to purchase from the Selling Stockholder an aggregate of 170,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 (“Common Stock”), at a price of $146.25 per share, representing an approximate 2% discount to the last reported per share sales price of Common Stock on the NYSE on September 19, 2024, and an aggregate total consideration of approximately $24.9 million (the “Repurchase”).
