         The number of shares of common stock owned prior to the offering
includes shares of common stock into which the notes being offered hereby or
otherwise held by the selling securityholder are convertible. The number of
shares of common stock offered hereby is based on a conversion price of $23.098
per share of common stock (adjusted to reflect the 2-for-1 split of the common
stock in the form of a stock dividend effected on October 29, 1999) and a cash
payment in lieu of any fractional share. Information concerning other selling
securityholders will be set forth in prospectus supplements from time to time,
if required. The number of shares of common stock owned by the other selling
securityholders or any future transferee from any such holder assumes that they
do not beneficially own any common stock other than common stock into which the
notes are convertible at a conversion price of $23.098 per share (adjusted to
reflect the 2-for-1 split of the common stock in the form of a stock dividend
effected on October 29, 1999).

         INVESTING IN THE NOTES OR THE COMMON STOCK INTO WHICH THE NOTES ARE
CONVERTIBLE INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. PLEASE CONSIDER THE "RISK FACTORS"
BEGINNING ON PAGE 6 OF THE PROSPECTUS.

         NEITHER THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES
COMMISSION HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED OF THESE SECURITIES OR PASSED UPON THE
ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THE PROSPECTUS OR THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT. ANY
REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.
