year 2004 guidance ranges and reiterated our fiscal year 2005 outlook ranges that had been previously provided in our press release issued on January 11, 2005. These ranges do not give effect to the impact of the February 7, 2005 letter from the
Chief Accountant of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#147;SEC&#148;) to the Chairman of the Center for Public Company Audit Firms clarifying the SEC staff&#146;s interpretation of certain accounting issues and their application under
generally accepted accounting principles relating to operating leases. We are currently evaluating the effects of this recent SEC interpretation, and we expect to disclose any effects on our financial results and financial projections when we
release our fourth quarter and fiscal year 2004 earnings and fiscal year 2005 earnings guidance on Tuesday, March 22, 2005. The outlook ranges for fiscal year 2005 also do not give effect to the impact from the implementation of accounting for
share-based payments (Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R), which we expect to implement in the third quarter of fiscal year 2005. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
