(1)   When taken together with the selling securityholder table in the prospectus supplement dated March 3, 2003, the aggregate principal amount held by selling securityholders listed in this prospectus supplement is more than $571,669,000 because some of the selling securityholders may have transferred notes pursuant to Rule 144A or otherwise reduced their positions prior to selling pursuant to the registration statement of which the prospectus, the prospectus supplement dated March 3, 2003 and this prospectus supplement form a part. The maximum aggregate principal amount of notes that may be sold under the prospectus, the prospectus supplement dated March 3, 2003 and this prospectus supplement will not exceed $571,669,000.
 
(2)   The numbers of Shares beneficially owned and being offered, as set forth in the table, have been determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, include the Shares into which the notes are convertible, and assume a conversion rate of 10.1947 Shares per $1,000 principal amount at maturity of notes and the payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares. In addition, the conversion rate of the notes may be adjusted under certain circumstances which will change the number of Shares received upon conversion. See “Description of the Notes – Conversion Rights” in the prospectus supplement dated March 3, 2003.
 
(3)   Calculated based on Rule 13d-3(d)(i) of the Exchange Act using 199,913,275 Shares outstanding as of March 20, 2003. In calculating this amount for each holder, we treated as outstanding the number of Shares issuable upon conversion of all of that holder’s notes, but we did not assume conversion of any other holder’s notes. Does not include Shares that may be issued by us upon redemption or purchase of the notes by us at the option of the holder.

In addition, in the ordinary course of business, Bear Stearns International Limited may hold positions in our other securities.

     To our knowledge, none of the selling securityholders has had any material relationship with us or any of our affiliates within the past three years other than as a result of ownership of notes and/or Shares or as previously disclosed or as otherwise set forth above.
