Bowden joined the Company in 1999.  She has served in the Office of the Secretary since 2009, first as Assistant Secretary and later as Corporate Secretary.

Quarterly Dividend

The Board today also declared a regular quarterly dividend of 35 cents per common share.

The dividend is payable Dec. 15, 2016 to shareowners of record as of Dec. 1, 2016.
