respect to such laws.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
The securities reported herein were acquired with funds of approximately
$126,460 million (including brokerage commissions). All such funds were provided
from investment capital of FMA's respective advisory clients.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
The securities covered by this Statement were acquired by FMA's advisory clients
for the purpose of investment. Neither FMA nor any executive officer or director
of FMA has any present plans or intentions to acquire or dispose of any
securities of the Issuer other than on behalf of FMA's clients for the purpose
of investment.
FMA may decide to purchase on behalf of its advisory clients additional shares
of the Common Stock or other securities of the Issuer. In addition, FMA may
cause its advisory clients to dispose of any or all securities of the Issuer in
any manner permitted by applicable securities laws. FMA's advisory clients
reserve the right to exercise any and all of their respective rights as a
stockholder of the Issuer in a manner consistent with their equity interests.
Simultaneously with the filing of this amended schedule, the reporting persons
are filing a Schedule 13G reflecting the holdings attributable to them of FMA's
advisory clients. Neither FMA nor any executive officer or director of FMA, has
any present plans or proposals which relate to or would result in:
(i) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or
liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;
(ii) the sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of
its subsidiaries;
(iii) any change in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer,
including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to
fill any existing vacancies on the board;
(iv) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the
Issuer;
(v) any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate structure;
(vi) changes in the Issuer's charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding
thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the
Issuer by any person;
(vii) causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national
securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer
quotation system of a registered national securities association;
(viii) a class of equity security of the Issuer becoming eligible for
termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934; or
(ix) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
(a-b) One or more of FMA's advisory clients is the owner of 4,863,653 shares of
the Common Stock. Investment advisory contracts with FMA's advisory clients
grant to FMA sole voting and investment discretion over the securities owned by
its advisory clients. Therefore, FMA may be deemed to be, for purposes of Rule
13d-3 under the 1934 Act (the "1934 Act"), the beneficial owner of 4,863,653
shares, representing approximately 5.8% of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock.
FMA is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Franklin Resources, Inc. ("FRI").
Beneficial ownership by investment advisory subsidiaries and other affiliates of
FRI is being reported in conformity with the guidelines articulated by the SEC
staff in Release No. 34-39538 (January 12, 1998) relating to organizations, such
as FRI, where related entities exercise voting and investment powers over the
securities being reported independently from each other. The voting and
investment powers held by FMA are exercised independently from FRI, and from all
other investment advisor subsidiaries of FRI (FRI, its affiliates and investment
advisor subsidiaries other than FMA are collectively referred to herein as "FRI
affiliates"). Furthermore, FMA and FRI internal policies and procedures
establish informational barriers that prevent the flow between FMA and the FRI
affiliates of information that relates to the voting and investment powers over
the securities owned by their respective advisory clients. Consequently, FMA and
the FRI affiliates are each reporting the securities over which they hold
investment and voting power separately from each other.
Charles B. Johnson and Rupert H. Johnson, Jr. (the "Principal Shareholders")
each own in excess of 10% of the outstanding Common Stock of FRI and are the
principal shareholders of FRI. However, FMA exercises voting and investment
powers on behalf of its advisory clients independently of FRI, the Principal
Shareholders, and their respective affiliates. Consequently, beneficial
ownership of the securities being reported by FMA is not attributed to FRI, the
Principal Shareholders, and their respective affiliates other than FMA. FMA
disclaims any economic interest or beneficial ownership in any of the securities
covered by this statement.
Furthermore, FRI, the Principal Shareholders, and their respective affiliates
including FMA, are of the view that they are not acting as a "group" for
purposes of Section 13(d) under the Act and that they are not otherwise required
to attribute to each other the "beneficial ownership" of securities held by any
of them or by any persons or entities advised by FRI subsidiaries.
(c) Exhibit B sets forth all transactions in the shares of the Common Stock
within the past sixty days.
(d) No person other than respective advisory clients of FMA have the right to
receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds of
the sale of the securities being reported herein.
(e) Not applicable.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings, or Relationships with Respect
to Securities of the Issuer
Other than as disclosed above, no persons named in Item 2 herein, nor to the
best of such person's knowledge, no person named in Exhibit A hereto, has any
contract, arrangement, understanding or relationship (legal or otherwise) with
any person with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including, but not
limited to, transfer or voting of any securities, finders' fees, joint ventures,
loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of
profits or losses, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
