In April 2007, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $250 million of our common stock.<br />

In October 2008, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $250 million of our common stock.<br />

Although the repurchase program does not include a specific timetable or price targets and may be suspended or<br />

terminated at any time, we expect that the program will be accomplished over the next two years. Shares may be<br />

purchased through open market or privately negotiated transactions at the discretion of management based on its<br />

evaluation of market conditions and other factors. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2009, we<br />

repurchased 684,681 shares under the publicly announced repurchase program for $35.0 million. We also<br />

reacquire shares from time to time from employees and non-employee directors to pay taxes owed in connection<br />

with the vesting and exercise of awards under our equity compensation plans.<br />
