* Less than 1%.
(1) Assumes conversion of all of the holder's notes at a conversion rate
of 27.027 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes.
However, this conversion rate will be subject to adjustment as
described under "Description of Notes--Conversion Rights." As a
result, the amount of common stock issuable upon conversion of the
notes may increase or decrease in the future.
(2) Calculated based on 30,315,494 shares of common stock outstanding as
of December 31, 2001. In calculating this amount for each selling
security holder,
we treated as outstanding that number of shares of common stock
issuable upon conversion of all of that holder's notes. However, we
did not assume the conversion of any other holder's notes, except in
calculating the percentage for all selling security holders as a
group.
11
(3) Information about other selling security holders will be set forth in
prospectus supplements, if required.
(4) Column does not add up correctly because the fractional shares to
which the holders would be entitled have been disregarded.
(5) Pursuant to an Investment Management Agreement, CALAMOS(R) Investments
is not acting individually, but solely as an Investment Manager for
the selling security holder.
(6) The entity is either an investment company or a portfolio of an
investment company registered under Section 8 of the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, or a private investment account
advised by Fidelity Management and Research Company ("FMR Co."). FMR
Co. is a Massachusetts corporation and an investment advisor
registered under Section 203 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940,
as amended, and provides investment advisory services to each of such
Fidelity entities identified above, and to other registered investment
companies and to certain other funds which are generally offered to a
limited group of investors. FMR Co. is a wholly owned subsidiary of
FMR Corp., a Massachusetts corporation. The holdings are as of January
23, 2002.
(7) The entity owns 1,200,000 of our 6.00% convertible subordinated notes
due 2004. Further, Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated acted as one of
the initial purchasers in connection with the offer and sale of the
notes in December 2001.
(8) The figures in this column are based on information supplied to us, as
of June 7, 2002, by the respective selling security holders named in
the table. As of that date, these selling security holders had
supplied us with information indicating that, collectively, they owned
more than $200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of notes (which
would be convertible into more than 5,405,400 shares of common stock),
reflecting, we believe, that one or more selling security holders
supplied us with information for inclusion in the table and then sold
their notes in transactions exempt from the registration requirements
of the Securities Act to persons who also supplied us with information
with respect to the same notes. However, since this prospectus would
not be applicable to any sale of notes after they have been publicly
sold utilizing this prospectus, no more than $200,000,000 principal
amount of notes could be sold utilizing this prospectus and,
accordingly, the $200,000,000 total in this column has been retained
and represents the maximum principal amount of notes that could be
sold hereunder.
12
We prepared this table based on the information supplied to us on or
before June 7, 2002 by the selling security holders named in the table. The
selling security holders listed in the above table may have sold or transferred,
pursuant to the prospectus or in transactions exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act, some or all of their notes since the date
they have supplied the information to us. Information about the selling security
holders may change further over time. Any changed information supplied to us
will be set forth in future prospectus supplements.
Other than as noted above, none of the selling security holders listed
above has, or within the past three years has had, any position, office or other
material relationship with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates.
Because the selling security holders may offer all or some of their
notes or the underlying common stock from time to time, we cannot estimate the
amount of the notes or the underlying common stock that will be held by the
selling security holders upon the termination of any particular offering. See
"Plan of Distribution."
