Google share buyback to begin
The Web search firm will buy back 23.4 mil common shares it may have issued improperly to previous and current employees and consultants; the share transactions may not have been registered as required by law. The offer, which expires on Dec. 30, sets the price at $3.94 a share and extends to unexercised options to buy 5.2 mil shares. Google expects little acceptance of the offer. Shares rose 0.5% to 181.98.
