Item 8.01. Other Events.

On August 26, 2004, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program pursuant to which up to $100 million of the Company's common stock may be repurchased. Under this program, repurchases will be made in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements and other factors and when management believes that the repurchase of the Company stock represents an appropriate use of the Company's available resources. The Company does not engage in stock repurchases during Company black-out periods; Company black-out periods typically begin one month prior to the end of each Company fiscal quarter and end after the quarterly earnings release. The Company's trading window is currently closed; the Company's trading window is scheduled to re-open on October 21, 2004 at which time management's ability to repurchase common stock will also resume.





The information in this Form 8-K shall not be deemed filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any such filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
