ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS

On June 9, 2011, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Daniel R. Feehan, established a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan (the “Trading Plan”) for the sale, subject to minimum market price thresholds for the Company’s common stock, par value $0.10 per share (“Common Stock”), set forth in the Trading Plan, of up to 62,500 shares of Common Stock. The Trading Plan is part of Mr. Feehan’s personal financial planning strategy for asset diversification and liquidity. Sales under the Trading Plan will commence no earlier than August 10, 2011 and the Trading Plan terminates on February 10, 2012.

The Trading Plan was adopted in accordance with guidelines specified under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the Company’s policies regarding transactions in its securities. Rule 10b5-1 permits individuals who are not then in possession of material nonpublic information to establish prearranged plans to buy or sell stock in the future, regardless of subsequent material nonpublic information. All transactions under the Trading Plan will be disclosed publicly through Form 144 and Form 4 filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission when due.
