The accelerated share repurchase agreement was completed in January 2016 with the delivery of an additional approximately 1.5Ìýmillion shares of common stock. The final number of shares repurchased and the aggregate cost per share of $11.68 was based on the Company's daily volume-weighted average stock price during the term of the transaction, less a discount.
