The debentures were originally issued by us to Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated and additional initial purchasers in a private placement in May 2003. The debentures were immediately resold by the initial purchasers in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act to persons reasonably believed by the initial purchasers to be "qualified institutional buyers," as defined by Rule 144A under the Securities Act. Selling securityholders, including their transferees, pledgees, donees and successors, may from time to time offer and sell pursuant to this prospectus any or all of the debentures and shares of common stock into which the debentures are convertible pursuant to this prospectus or any applicable prospectus supplement.
The table below sets forth the name of each selling securityholder, the principal amount of debentures and shares of common stock beneficially owned by each selling securityholder and the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of those debentures that may be offered from time to time under this prospectus by the selling securityholders named in the table.
We have prepared the table below based on information given to us by those selling securityholders who have supplied us with this information and we have not sought to verify this information. We will update this table if we receive more information from holders of the debentures who have not yet provided us with their information. We will supplement or amend this prospectus to include additional selling securityholders upon request and upon provision of all required information to us. Information concerning the selling securityholders may change from time to time and any changed information will be set forth in supplements to this prospectus if and when necessary.
Because the selling securityholders may offer all or some portion of the debentures and shares of common stock into which the debentures are convertible listed below, we have assumed for purposes of this table that the selling securityholders will sell all of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus pursuant to this prospectus. Accordingly, we cannot estimate the amounts of debentures or shares of common stock that will be held by the selling securityholders following the consummation of any such sales. In addition, the selling securityholders listed in the table below may have acquired, sold or transferred, in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, some or all of their debentures since the date on which they provided to us the information presented in the table.
The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the debentures shown in the table below assumes conversion of the full amount of debentures held by each selling securityholder. The percentage of debentures outstanding beneficially owned by each selling securityholder is based on $170,000,000 aggregate principal amount of debentures outstanding. The number of shares of common stock beneficially owned prior to the offering includes shares of common stock into which the debentures may be convertible. The number of shares of common stock that may be offered is based on a conversion rate of 24.8219 per $1,000 principal amount of debentures and a cash payment in lieu of any fractional share. The percentage of common stock outstanding beneficially owned and that may be offered by each selling securityholder is based on 21,185,517 shares of common stock outstanding on November 14, 2003. In addition, the conversion rate and, therefore, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the debentures is subject to adjustment under certain
S-2
circumstances. Accordingly, the aggregate principal amount of debentures and the number of shares of common stock into which the debentures are convertible may increase or decrease.
Based upon information provided by the selling securityholders, none of the selling securityholders nor any of their affiliates, officers, directors or principal equity holders has held any position or office or has had any material relationship with us within the past three years.
