Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub has commenced a tender offer (the "Stock Tender Offer") to acquire all the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock for $50.00 per share, net to the seller in cash, without interest (the "Offer Price"). The Stock Tender Offer is conditioned upon Merger Sub purchasing at least a majority of the Company's common stock on a fully diluted basis in the Stock Tender Offer, receipt of acquisition financing, regulatory approvals and other customary conditions.

In the Merger, all outstanding shares of the Company's common stock not purchased in the Stock Tender Offer will be converted into the right to receive the same amount of cash consideration paid by Merger Sub for shares of common stock in the Stock Tender Offer. As required by the Merger Agreement, the Company has commenced a tender offer (the "Note Tender Offer") to purchase all of its outstanding 9 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due March 1, 2008 (the "Notes").
