 (1)  Shares in this column do not include shares of common stock listed in the column to the right, which are issuable upon conversion of the notes offered hereby.
   
 (2)  The number of conversion shares shown in the table above assumes conversion of the full amount of notes held by such holder at the initial conversion rate of 39.2157 shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes at maturity. This conversion rate is subject to certain adjustments. Accordingly, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes may increase or decrease from time to time. Under the terms of the indenture, fractional shares will not be issued upon conversion of the notes. Cash will be paid instead of fractional shares, if any.
   
 (3) Assumes all of the notes and shares of common stock issuable upon their conversion are sold in the offering.
  
Investing in the notes involves risks. See "Risk Factors" beginning on page 12 of the prospectus.
