(1)      Assumes conversion of all of the holders' Series C convertible
         preferred stock at a conversion price of $63.75 per share of Class A
         common stock. However, this conversion price will be subject to
         adjustment as described under Description of Series C Convertible
         Preferred Stock--Conversion Rights. As a result, the amount of Class A
         common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C convertible
         preferred stock may increase or decrease in the future.

(2)      Calculated based on Rule 13d-3(d)(i) of the Exchange Act using
         45,904,440 shares of Class A common stock outstanding as of November
         29, 2000. In calculating this amount, we treated as outstanding the
         number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of
         all of that particular holder's Series C convertible preferred stock.
         However, we did not assume the conversion of any other holder's Series
         C convertible preferred stock.

         Because the selling security holders listed above and in the prospectus
under the caption Selling Security Holders may, pursuant to the prospectus, as
supplemented, offer all or some portion of the Series C convertible preferred
stock, no estimate can be given as to the amount of Series C convertible
preferred stock that will be held by the selling security holders upon
termination of any such sales.




         Furthermore, the selling security holders identified in the table set
forth in the prospectus under the caption Selling Security Holders may have
sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their Series C
convertible preferred stock or Class A common stock since the date on which they
provided us with information regarding their Series C convertible preferred
stock or Class A common stock, and we have not made any independent inquiries as
to the foregoing.

         All information provided in this prospectus supplement is current as of
November 29, 2000.
