Note 7. Repurchase of Common Stock

In 1999 and 2001, the Board of Directors approved resolutions authorizing the Company to repurchase up to a total of 1,000,000 shares of its own stock on the open market, which the Board reaffirmed in 2008. The Company did not repurchase any of its stock during 2012 or 2011, with the exception of the second quarter 2012 when approximately 9,000 shares were repurchased at an average price of $3.26 per share. There are approximately 72,000 shares remaining under this repurchase authorization.
