Stockholders' Equity Transactions

NOTE 14 STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY TRANSACTIONS

In May 2008, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a share repurchase program, authorizing the purchase of up to 4.0 million shares of the Company's common stock. No purchases were made under this program during the nine months ended October 1, 2011. As of October 1, 2011, 3.9 million shares remained available for purchase under the program. However, the terms of the senior secured credit facility obtained by the Company in October 2011, as described in Note 18, restrict the Company's ability to purchase additional shares under this program during the term of such facility.

In March 2011, the Company cancelled 0.2 million restricted stock units in payment by employees of taxes owed upon the vesting of restricted stock units issued to them under the Company's stock incentive plans. The value of these restricted stock units totaled $3.4 million at the time they were cancelled.
