Therefore, ZipRecruiter encourages investors, the media and others interested in the Company to review the information it makes public in these channels, as such information could be deemed to be material information.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On November 5, 2024, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company authorized the Company to repurchase up to an additional $100.0 million (exclusive of fees and commissions) of outstanding shares of its Class A common stock, $0.00001 par value per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), and Class B common stock, $0.00001 par value per share (the “Class B Common Stock” and together with the Class A Common Stock, the “Common Stock”), pursuant to an existing share repurchase program. Such amount is in addition to the Company’s previous aggregate authorization of $550.0 million.

The share repurchase program has no expiration date and will continue until otherwise suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason by the Board.
