ITEM 9. REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE
The Registrant has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a preliminary prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus for the offering by the Registrant of 2,750,000 of its Class A Common Units through a group of underwriters for whom UBS Warburg LLC and Lehman Brothers Inc. are acting as joint book-running managers. The prospectus supplement also relates to an option granted by the Registrant to the underwriters to purchase an additional 412,500 Class A Common Units to cover any over-allotments. The Registrant intends to use the net proceeds from this offering to repay a portion of its existing indebtedness. This current report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer for sale of any securities of the Registrant. The offer is being made only through the prospectus, as supplemented, which is part of a shelf registration statement that became effective in October 2001.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
