(1)
Assumes conversion of all of the holder's debentures at the initial conversion rate of 12.3077 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount at maturity of the debentures. However, this conversion rate will be subject to adjustment as described under "Description of Debentures—Conversion Rights—Base Conversion Rate Adjustments." As a result, the amount of common stock issuable upon conversion of the debentures may increase in the future.

(2)
Calculated based on Rule 13d-3(d)(i) of the Exchange Act using 21,026,270 shares of common stock outstanding as of May 12, 2003. In calculating this amount, we treated as outstanding the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of all of that particular holder's debentures. However, we did not assume the conversion of any other holder's debentures.

(3)
Does not include 4,000 shares of our common stock owned by S.A.C. Capital Associates, LLC in addition to the common stock into which such holder's debentures are convertible.

        Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
