5. Stockholders' Equity

Our Board of Directors (the "Board") has authorized a program to repurchase shares of our outstanding common stock ("Repurchase Program").  The purchases are to be made from time to time in the open market or directly from stockholders at prevailing market prices based on market conditions and other factors.  During the three months ended March 31, 2013, 356,653 shares were repurchased under the Repurchase Program and 115,558 shares not subject to the Repurchase Program were withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations for the vesting of restricted stock awards.  As of March 31, 2013, we were authorized to repurchase an additional 472,819 shares under the program.

The Board declared quarterly dividends of $0.17 per share of common stock in the first quarter of 2013, and $0.15 per share of common stock in the first quarter of 2012, resulting in a total of $4.3 million and $3.9 million, respectively, in dividends paid during the first three months of each year.
