Item 8.01. Other Events.

On  August 4, 2010, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $20 million of the Company’s common stock. This repurchase authorization follows, and is in addition to, a similar repurchase authorization of $20 million announced in May 2010. After taking into account all shares repurchased through August 4, 2010, the Company has approximately $22.0 million in aggregate remaining repurchase capacity under all of the Company’s outstanding repurchase authorizations. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the stock price, corporate and regulatory requirements and other market and economic conditions. The Company’s stock repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
