EXPLANATORY NOTE

     This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A is filed as Amendment No. 1 to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 27, 2003, originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 12, 2003. This Form 10-Q/A is filed in connection with the Commission’s grant of our application for confidential treatment of our Supply Agreement with Crown Cork and Seal dated as of January 1, 2002 (the “Agreement”). We have amended Exhibit 10.14 to exclude the portions of the Agreement that are permitted to remain confidential and to include those portions that are no longer confidential. Exhibit 10.14 is being refiled in its entirety. In addition, the Form 10-Q/A includes an updated signature page and certain currently dated certifications required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2, attached hereto. This Form 10-Q/A does not change our previously reported consolidated financial statement or make any other changes to the Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 27, 2003. This Form 10-Q/A should be read in conjunction with our subsequent filings with the Commission.
