For each selling stockholder, this number represents the percentage of common stock that would be owned by such selling stockholder after completion of the offering, based on the number of shares of common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2004 and assuming all the Notes beneficially owned by such selling stockholder as of March 31, 2004, have been converted. 3.

We note that the aggregate number of shares of common stock requested to be registered by the selling stockholders is greater than the total number of shares initially issuable upon conversion of 100% of the outstanding Notes. This may be due in part to sales or other transfers of Notes among the selling stockholders in which the person acquiring the Notes submits a request to register shares of common stock which were previously registered by the person who sold the Notes.
