Section 1 — Registrant’s Business and Operations

Item 1.01                         Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On July 2, 2007, we repurchased in a private transaction 1,100,000 shares of our common stock held jointly by James Grosfeld, one of our directors, and his wife, and 73,000 shares of our common stock held by a charitable foundation established by Mr. and Mrs. Grosfeld. The price paid for the repurchased shares was $30.77 per share, the closing market price of our common stock as quoted on the Nasdaq Global Market on July 2, 2007. The repurchase of these shares was pre-approved by the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors, with Mr. Grosfeld abstaining.

In addition to the shares repurchased from Mr. Grosfeld, since the end of the quarter ended April 30, 2007, the company has repurchased 1,822,405 of our common shares at an average per share price of $29.37.

These shares, totaling 2,995,405, were repurchased under our repurchase program which was approved by our Board of Directors in February 2003. The program authorized the repurchase of up to nine million shares of our common stock, has no time limit and may be discontinued at any time. To date, we have repurchased 7,033,705 shares under this program.
