This prospectus supplement should be read in conjunction with the prospectus dated March 4, 2004, as supplemented, which is to be delivered with this prospectus supplement, and this prospectus supplement is qualified by reference to the prospectus, except to the extent that the information in this prospectus supplement supercedes the information contained in the prospectus. This prospectus supplement is not complete without, and may not be delivered or utilized except in connection with, the prospectus, including any amendments or supplements to it. Investing in the notes or the common stock offered by the prospectus involves risks that are described in the "Risk Factors" section beginning on page 7 of the prospectus. ______________ Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission, any state securities commission nor any other regulatory body has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus supplement is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense. ______________ The date of this prospectus supplement is December 28, 2004. The information in the table appearing under the heading "Selling Securityholders" beginning on page 54 of the prospectus, as supplemented, is amended by adding the information below with respect to persons not previously listed in the prospectus, and by superceding the information below with respect to persons previously listed in the prospectus. The following table sets forth certain information as of the date noted, concerning the principal amount of notes beneficially owned by each selling securityholder and the number of shares of common stock that may be offered from time to time by each selling securityholder under this prospectus. The information is based on information provided by or on behalf of the selling securityholders. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes shown in the table below assumes conversion of the full amount of notes held by each holder at an initial conversion price of $21.28 per share. This conversion price is subject to adjustments in certain circumstances. Because the selling securityholders may offer all or some portion of the notes or the common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes, we have assumed for purposes of the table below that the selling securityholders will sell all of the notes or convert all of the notes and sell all of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes offered by the prospectus. The selling securityholders identified below may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their notes since the date on which they provided the information regarding their notes in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Information about the selling securityholders may change over time. Any changed information furnished to us by the selling securityholders will be set forth in prospectus supplements to the extent required.
