Item 8.01  Other Events.

 

 

On November 6, 2015, as part of the Company’s previously announced, Board-approved share repurchase program, the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement with Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC to repurchase $175 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock (the “ASR”). The Company expects to receive an initial delivery of 4,131,012 shares. The total number of shares that the Company will repurchase under the ASR will be determined upon final settlement based generally on the volume-weighted average price of the Company’s common stock during the repurchase period. Final settlement of the ASR is expected to occur no later than December 30, 2015. All of the shares the Company repurchases will be retired.
