________________
1. For each selling stockholder, this number represents the number of
shares of common stock that would be beneficially owned by such
selling stockholder after the conversion of the Notes beneficially
owned by such selling stockholder as of May 11, 2005, assumes that the
selling stockholders will sell all shares of common stock offered by
them under this prospectus, and further assumes that all of the Notes
have been converted.
2. 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 May 11, 2005 and assuming all the Notes
beneficially owned by such selling stockholder as of May 11, 2005,
have been converted.
3. We have been advised that Mr. Lawrence Keele may be deemed the
beneficial owner of these shares by virtue of his voting control of
Oaktree Capital Management, LLC, which has voting control and
investment discretion with respect to these shares.
4. We have been advised that Mr. Gene T. Pretti may be deemed the
beneficial owner of these shares by virtue of his voting control and
investment discretion.
5. Assumes conversion of 100% of the outstanding Notes (without giving
effect to any capital adjustments). 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.
