(1) Assumes conversion of all of the holder’s notes at a conversion rate of 20.4337 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes. This conversion rate is subject to adjustment, however, as described under “Description of Notes—Conversion rights.” As a result, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes may increase or decrease in the future.

(2) Calculated based on Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i) of the Exchange Act, using 66,901,537 shares of common stock outstanding as of November 1, 2006. In calculating this amount for each holder, we treated as outstanding the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of all of that holder’s notes, but we did not assume conversion of any other holder’s notes.

Information about other selling securityholders will be set forth in additional prospectus supplements, if required.
