___________________

*        Represents less than 0.1%.

**       Includes $680,000 aggregate principal amount of notes previously
         reflected in the prospectus dated October 5, 2004, plus an additional
         $60,000 aggregate principal amount of notes acquired subsequent to the
         date thereof pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act.

***      Lehman Brothers, Inc. acted as an initial purchaser in the initial
         private offering of the notes in June 2004 and received customary
         compensation in connection therewith.

(1)      Assumes conversion of all of the holder's notes at a conversion rate of
         19.9045 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount at maturity
         of the notes. This conversion rate is subject to adjustment, however,
         as described under "Description of the Notes -- Conversion Rights." As
         a result, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion
         of the notes may increase or decrease in the future.

(2)      Calculated based on Rule 13d-3(d)(i) of the Exchange Act, using
         36,604,214 common shares outstanding as of October 13, 2004. In
         calculating this amount for each holder, we treated as outstanding the
         number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of all that
         holder's notes, but we did not assume conversion of any other holder's
         notes.

(3)      Represents the number of shares of common stock into which $350,000,000
         aggregate principal amount of notes would be convertible at the
         conversion rate described in footnote 1 above.

(4)      Represents the amount which the selling securityholders may sell under
         this prospectus divided by the sum of the common stock outstanding as
         of October 13, 2004, plus the 6,966,575 shares of common stock into
         which the $350,000,000 aggregate principal amount of notes is
         convertible.

(5)      Selling securityholder has identified itself as an affiliate of a
         broker-dealer. Each such selling securityholder has informed us that:
         (1) such selling securityholder purchased its notes in the ordinary
         course of business, and (2) at the time that the notes were purchased,
         the selling securityholder had no agreements or understandings,
         directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the notes.

(6)      Selling securityholder has identified itself as a broker-dealer. Each
         such selling securityholder has informed us that: (1) such selling
         securityholder purchased its notes in the ordinary course of business,
         and (2) at the time that the notes were purchased, the selling
         securityholder had no agreements or understandings, directly or
         indirectly, with any person to distribute the notes.



         INVESTING IN THE NOTES AND OUR COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION
OF THE NOTES INVOLVES RISKS THAT ARE DESCRIBED IN THE "RISK FACTORS" SECTION OF
THE ACCOMPANYING PROSPECTUS BEGINNING ON PAGE 13.



         NEITHER THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION NOR ANY STATE
SECURITIES COMMISSION HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED OF THESE SECURITIES OR
DETERMINED IF THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT OR THE ACCOMPANYING PROSPECTUS IS
TRUTHFUL OR COMPLETE. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.
