In September 2007, our Board of Directors approved an expansion of our share repurchase program allowing for the repurchase of up to $75 million of our common stock.  The repurchases may be made, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.  Shares of common stock acquired through the repurchase program are and will be available for general corporate purposes.  We repurchased 1,643 thousand shares of our common stock for approximately $31.4 million pursuant to the expanded program in 2007.  We did not repurchase any shares of common stock under this authorization in 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 or the year-to-date period of 2012. The authorized amount remaining for stock repurchases under the repurchase program was $43.6 million, as of June 30, 2012. The repurchase program has no expiration date, but would end if our common stock is delisted and we deregister as a public company. For more information, please see our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed July 16, 2012 and our Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, expected to be filed on or about August 2, 2012.
