Pursuant to the First Supplemental Indenture, the maturity date of the 4.50% Notes has been extended to September 1, 2009. Each holder’s rights to require the Company to repurchase the 4.50% Notes at 105.00% of such holder’s outstanding principal amount upon a change in control, as defined in the indenture governing the 4.50% Notes, and to convert the 4.50% Notes into common stock have been extended accordingly, and the conversion rate for the 4.50% Notes has been adjusted to 20 shares per $1,000 principal amount of 4.50% Notes, or $50.00 per share.
