     The Offer expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Tuesday, March 25, 2008. Based on information provided by the Depositary for the Offer, as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Tuesday, March 25, 2008, 14,951,550 Shares were tendered pursuant to the Offer and not withdrawn which, together with 715,141 shares to be tendered under guaranteed delivery procedures, represents approximately 92% of the outstanding Shares.

During the subsequent offering period, holders of Shares who did not previously tender their Shares into the Offer may do so and will promptly receive the same $19.50 per Share, net to the seller in cash without interest, paid during the initial offering period of the Offer. Purchaser will immediately accept all Shares properly tendered during the subsequent offering period and will pay the tendering stockholders promptly after acceptance.
