that its Board of Directors had unanimously approved an increase to the Company’s share repurchase

In that same press release the Company also reported that since January 1, 2011 and through
June 29, 2011 it had bought back 1.31 million shares of common stock for aggregate consideration in

Furthermore from June 30 through July 5, 2011 the Company repurchased an additional 414,000
shares for $7.9 million, resulting in cumulative 2011 year-to-date share repurchases amounting to
1.72 million shares for aggregated consideration of $34.1 million. All share repurchases were and
will continue to be done in accordance with Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as
