On March 4, 2009, our board of directors voted to suspend our quarterly dividend. Accordingly, no dividends were declared on our Old Common Stock in
2010 or 2009. We currently do not anticipate that we will pay any cash dividends on shares of our Common Stock for the foreseeable future. Any
determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon limitations imposed by orders of state
regulatory authorities, results of operations, financial condition, contractual restrictions relating to indebtedness we may incur, restrictions imposed by
applicable law and other factors our board of directors may deem relevant at the time.
The following table shows the dividends which were paid on our Old Common Stock during 2009:
