During the three months ended June 30, 2012, we repurchased 299,104 of our common shares for $37.3 million. Included in this total were rights to 32,311 shares valued at $4.2 million that were surrendered to us pursuant to the terms of a stock-based compensation plan in consideration of the participants' tax burdens that may result from the issuance of common shares under that plan. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we repurchased 403,383 of our common shares for $50.2 million. Included in this total were rights to 38,590 shares valued at $4.9 million that were surrendered to us pursuant to the terms of a stock-based compensation plan in consideration of the participants' tax burdens that may result from the issuance of common shares under that plan. Such common shares, unless canceled, may be reissued for a variety of purposes such as future acquisitions, non-employee director stock awards or employee stock awards.

In February and May 2012, we paid a quarterly dividend of $0.28 per share of common stock.  In addition, on July 10, 2012, we declared a quarterly dividend of $0.28 per share of common stock for shareholders of record on July 20, 2012 and payable on August 20, 2012.
