MERRIMACK, N.H.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Directors declared a special cash dividend of $0.40 per share payable
on December 15, 2014, to shareholders of record at the close of business
on December 1, 2014. The total amount of the special dividend payment
will be approximately $10.5 million based on the current number of

leveraged its assets and maintained a strong balance sheet. We believe
that this special dividend is an appropriate way to reward shareholders
for their support."
