The section of the prospectus entitled “Selling Securityholders” on pages 14-17 of the prospectus is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

 

SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS

 

We originally issued the notes to J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., Banc of America Securities LLC, Needham & Company, Inc., Stephens Inc. and Thomas Weisel Partners LLC (the “Initial Purchasers”) in a private placement in June 2003. Our net proceeds from the sale and issuance of the notes to the Initial Purchasers was approximately $204 million, after deducting the discount and estimated expenses of the offering. The notes were immediately resold by the Initial Purchasers to persons reasonably believed by the Initial Purchasers to be qualified institutional buyers within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act. Selling security holders, including their transferees, pledgees or donees or their successors, may from time to time offer and sell the notes and the common stock into which the notes are convertible pursuant to this prospectus. Our registration of the notes and the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes does not necessarily mean that the selling security holders will sell all or any of the notes or the common stock. Unless set forth below, none of the Selling Securityholders has had within the past three years any material relationship with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates.

 

The following table sets forth certain information as of February 10, 2004, except where otherwise noted, concerning the principal amount of notes beneficially owned by each selling security holder and the number of shares of common stock that may be offered from time to time by each selling security holder under this prospectus. The information is based on information provided by or on behalf of the selling security holders. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes shown in the table below assumes conversion of the full amount of notes held by each holder at an initial conversion price of $44.38 per share. This conversion price is subject to adjustments in certain circumstances. Because the selling security holders may offer all or some portion of the notes or the common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes, we have assumed for purposes of the table below that the selling security holders will sell all of the notes and all of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes offered by this prospectus. In addition, the selling security holders identified below may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their notes since the date on which they provided the information regarding their notes in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Information about the selling securityholders may change over time. Any changed information given to us by the selling securityholders will be set forth in prospectus supplements if and when necessary. As of September 3, 2003, we had $210,000,000 in principal amount of the notes and 32,858,318 shares of common stock outstanding.

(1)   Assumes conversion of all of the holder’s notes at a conversion rate of 22.5306 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount at maturity of the notes. This conversion rate is subject to adjustment as described under “Description of Notes—Conversion rights.” As a result, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes may increase in the future. Excludes shares of common stock that may be issued by us upon the repurchase of the notes and fractional shares. Holders will receive a cash adjustment for any fractional share amount resulting from conversion of the Notes, as described under “Description of Notes—Conversion rights.”
(2)   Calculated using 32,841,041 shares of common stock outstanding as of November 21, 2003. In calculating this amount for each holder, we treated as outstanding the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of all of that holder’s notes, but we did not assume conversion of any other holder’s notes.
(3)   Assumes that all holders of notes, or any future transferees, pledgees, donees or successors of or from such holders of notes, do not beneficially own any common stock other than the common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes at the initial conversion rate.


(4)   Selling securityholder was one of the initial purchasers of the notes and helped to facilitate the resale of the notes, pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act.

 

Except as a selling securityholder, and as described above in this prospectus supplement, no selling securityholder listed in the above table has had any material relationship with us or any of our affiliates within the past three years.

 

The date of this Prospectus Supplement is February 13, 2004.
