In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

 

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

On February 14, 2013, the Company issued a press release announcing that its board of directors has authorized the repurchase of up to 6 million shares of the company’s common stock, which is attached as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. The stock repurchase program may be carried out at the direction of the company through open market purchases, block trades, one or more trading plans adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and in privately negotiated transactions. The repurchase program will become effective on February 20, 2013 and is expected to continue for a period of up to 36 months unless it is terminated earlier by the Board of Directors.

The company expects to fund the stock repurchase program through its available cash, future cash from operations, or other potential sources of capital.
