(1)   Because certain of the selling securityholders may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their notes in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act since the date on which they provided the information presented in this table, this prospectus supplement may not reflect the exact principal amount of notes held by each selling securityholder on the date of this prospectus supplement. The maximum aggregate principal amount of notes that may be sold pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the prospectus itself will not exceed $600 million.
 
(2)   We do not know when or in what amounts the selling securityholders may offer notes or shares for sale. The selling securityholders might not sell any or all of the notes or shares offered by this prospectus supplement. Because the selling securityholders may offer any amount of the notes or shares pursuant to this offering, we cannot estimate the number of the notes or             shares that will be held by the selling securityholders after completion of the offering. However, for purposes of this table, we have assumed that, after completion of the offering, none of the note or shares covered by this prospectus supplement will be held by the selling securityholders.
 
(3)   Calculated based on 119,757,095 shares of our common stock outstanding as of March 20, 2008. In calculating this amount for each holder, we treated as outstanding the number of shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of all of that holder’s notes, but we did not assume conversation of any other holder’s notes.
Information about the selling securityholders may change over time. Any changed information given to us by the selling securityholders will be set forth in additional prospectus supplements if and when necessary.
Investing in our Notes or common shares involves risks. Please read carefully the section of the prospectus entitled “Risk Factors”.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
This prospectus supplement is dated April 16, 2008.
