Material Changes and Settlement Mechanics
The final number of shares to be repurchased will be determined by the volume-weighted average price of the Common Stock during the calculation period (Rule 10b-18), less a negotiated discount. Settlement mechanics include:
- If the calculated share count exceeds the Initial Shares, Wells Fargo will deliver additional shares.
- If the calculated share count is less than the Initial Shares, the Company will deliver either a cash payment or shares of Common Stock to Wells Fargo at its election.
- Wells Fargo may accelerate the valuation date for all or part of the transaction beginning April 9, 2026.
Outlook, Risks, and Contingencies
The transaction is subject to customary provisions for adjustments, suspension, or early termination due to market disruption events, changes in law, hedging disruptions, stock borrow events, or announcements of acquisition/merger transactions. Additionally, if the trading price of the Common Stock falls to or below a specified threshold during the relevant period, the transaction may be terminated. The Company is subject to restrictions on repurchasing Common Stock and related securities during the calculation period.
Key Facts for Investor Verification
