Item 8.01 Other Events.
On June 12, 2007, as part of a previously announced stock repurchase program, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) with an agent for the purchase of shares of the Company’s common stock that complies with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 promulgated by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The term of the Plan will run from June 13, 2007 until July 31, 2007, unless earlier terminated. During that term, the agent will, subject to applicable trading rules, use its best efforts to repurchase a number of shares of the Company’s common stock, if any, that will be determined under the terms of the Plan each trading day based on the trading price of the stock on that day. Shares will be repurchased by the agent at the prevailing market prices, in open market transactions intended to comply with Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act. Either the Company or the agent may terminate the Plan.
Depending upon prevailing market conditions and other factors, there can be no assurance that any or all authorized shares of common stock will be purchased pursuant to the Plan, program or otherwise. In no event will the cumulative amounts of common stock purchased under the Plan and through Discretionary Purchases during the term of the Plan exceed $260 million, inclusive of all commissions and fees paid to the agent by the Company related to such repurchases.

As a result, no assurance can be given that the Company’s beliefs and expectations covered by such forward-looking statements will be achieved. The Company is not obligated and has no intention to update or revise these forward-looking statements to reflect new events, information or circumstances.
