This prospectus supplement is qualified by reference to the prospectus, except to the extent that the information in this prospectus supplement supersedes the information contained in the prospectus.

 

The following table sets forth information, as of the date of this prospectus supplement, relating to the beneficial ownership of the notes and Shares by each selling securityholder. The selling securityholders may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or any portion of their notes or Shares or acquired additional notes since the date on which they provided this information to us.

(1) The figures in this column are based upon information supplied to us as of February 7, 2006 by the selling securityholders named in the table. As of that date, these selling securityholders had supplied us with information indicating that, collectively, they owned more that $175,000,000 aggregate principal amount of notes, reflecting, we believe, that one or more selling securityholders supplied us with information for inclusion in the table and then sold their notes in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act to persons who also supplied us with information with respect to the same notes. However, since none of this prospectus supplement, the prospectus or the registration statement of which the prospectus forms a part will be applicable to any of the notes after they have been publicly sold using the prospectus supplement, the prospectus or the registration statement of which the prospectus forms a part, not more than $175,000,000 aggregate principal amount of notes can be sold under this prospectus supplement, the prospectus or the registration statement of which the prospectus forms a part and, accordingly, the $175,000,000 total in this column represents the maximum principal amount of the notes that could be sold under the prospectus, as supplemented, or the registration statement of which the prospectus forms a part.

 

(2) Jefferies & Company, Inc. was the initial purchaser of the notes. Additionally, Jefferies & Company, Inc. and its affiliates have performed in the past investment banking, general financing and advisory services for us and our affiliates for which they receive customary fees and expenses.

 

(3) Other holders of notes or shares of our common stock issued upon conversion of the notes and common stock not identified in the table above or future transferees, pledgees or donees of or from the holders identified in the table above may be identified by us at a later date by filing a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which the prospectus is a part or, if permitted under the Securities Act, a prospectus supplement. Such other holders shall not be permitted to sell pursuant to the registration statement unless and until they are specifically identified in a post-effective amendment to the registration statement or, if permitted under the Securities Act, a prospectus supplement.

 

Investing in the notes and Shares involves risks. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 6 of the prospectus dated September 20, 2005.

 

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

 

 

This prospectus supplement is dated February 8, 2006.
