SEACOR's Board of Directors previously approved a securities repurchase plan that authorizes the Company to acquire shares of SEACOR common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock"), which may be acquired through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, depending on market conditions. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company did not acquire any Common Stock for treasury. As of September 30, 2011, the remaining authority under the repurchase plan was $113.0 million.
