<FONT size=2 face="sans-serif">Patrick Williams, President and Chief Executive Officer said </FONT></P>
<P align="left">
<FONT size=2 face="sans-serif">&#147;Following a strong second quarter performance in 2011 and earlier sequential gains, we are confident that our business momentum and proven strategy will enable us to continue to deliver strong profit and cash
flow. We believe that our current share price significantly undervalues the company and its prospects, and, therefore, under our balanced capital management program, we feel that strategic share repurchases are a prudent use of capital. Our
aggressive strategy combines organic growth with acquisitions and remains unchanged. With our current cash position, we feel we should be able to continue to drive this strategy and share repurchases in parallel.&#148;</FONT></P>
