On July 10, 2012, the Company authorized a Common Stock repurchase plan structured to comply with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  Under the plan, open market purchases could have commenced August 1, 2012 and may continue until August 1, 2014 at the latest, subject to Rule 10b-18 limitations as well as certain price and market value constraints specified in the plan.  Rule 10b-18 timing and price limitations prevented purchases from commencing on August 1, 2012.  Notwithstanding the terms of the plan, the exact number of shares which may be purchased pursuant to the plan is difficult to predict given the current market in the Company’s Common Stock.
