Item 8.01	Other Events
	On October 13, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Corporation determined not to renew the Rights Agreement between the Corporation and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Rights Agent, which was subsequently amended as of January 9, 2009 and August 17, 2011 (as amended, the “Rights Agreement”), and pursuant to which the Corporation declared a dividend distribution of one Right (as defined in the Rights Agreement) for each outstanding share of common stock of the Corporation.
	The terms of the Rights Agreement and the Rights issued pursuant to it are described in Exhibits 4 and 4.1 to the Corporation’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter-ended September 30, 2010 and filed with the Commission on November 15, 2010, and Exhibit 4.1 to the Registrant’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Commission on August 24, 2011.
