Note 14: Stock Repurchase Program; Treasury Shares

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $50 million of the Company's common stock from time to time through negotiated or open market transactions (the "2008 Program"). The 2008 Program does not have an expiration date. On August 24, 2011 the Company announced a $36 million expansion of the 2008 Program. Refer to Exhibit 99.1 of our current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 24, 2011 for the complete announcement.

In addition to repurchase activity under the 2008 Program, the Company withholds shares from vested restricted stock to pay employee payroll and income tax withholding liabilities.
