Overseas Shipholding Group, Inc. (NYSE: OSG) (the “Company” or “OSG”) today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a program to purchase up to ten million shares of the Company’s common stock. Sam Norton, OSG’s President and CEO, stated, “Share repurchases remain one of several focus points for use of free cash flow generated by current and anticipated vessel operations.
