ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

On November 22, 2021, we announced that our Board had approved a share repurchase program of up to $200 million of our Class A-1 common stock. On February 27, 2025, we announced that the Board approved an amendment to the share repurchase program to replenish the dollar amount that may be purchased under the program back to up to $200 million of Class A-1 common stock (as amended, our “share repurchase program”). The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including price, general business and market conditions, and alternative investment opportunities. Under the share repurchase program, repurchases can be made from time to time using a variety of methods, including open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions, in compliance with the rules of the SEC and other applicable legal requirements. The share repurchase program does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of shares, and the share repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time at our discretion.

All share repurchases were made under our publicly announced share repurchase program, and there are no other programs under which we repurchase shares. Repurchases under our share repurchase program, during applicable restricted trading windows that we periodically establish, are executed under the terms of a pre-set trading plan meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) of the Exchange Act.

The following table presents a summary of share repurchases made during the third quarter of 2026:
