<FONT size="2">On December&nbsp;21, 2001, we issued
$50.0&nbsp;million aggregate principal amount of our convertible
debentures due December&nbsp;21, 2006 and related warrants to
Lehman Brothers Inc. (&#147;LBI&#148;) and Investcorp CSK
Holdings L.P. (the &#147;Related Investor,&#148; and
collectively with LBI, the &#147;Investors&#148;). The Related
Investor is an affiliate of Investcorp, S.A., a principal

the Conversion Stock to the Investors. The rules of the New York

issuance to a &#147;Related Party&#148; (as specified in such
rules) of a number of shares of common stock in excess of 1% of
the number of shares of common stock outstanding, and prior to
the issuance of a number of shares of common stock equal to or

debentures and exercise of the related warrants with respect to
the Related Investor, who would be considered a &#147;Related
Party&#148; under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange,
would be in excess of 1% of our outstanding common stock. In
addition, although the number of shares of our common stock that
currently is issuable upon conversion of, and in lieu of cash
interest payments on, the convertible debentures and exercise of
the related warrants would be less, in the aggregate, than 20%
of our outstanding common stock, in the future under some
circumstances described below, the number of shares of our
common stock issuable pursuant to these securities could
increase to an amount in excess of 20% of our then outstanding
common stock. Therefore, in accordance with the rules of the New
York Stock Exchange and under the terms of the agreements
pursuant to which we sold the convertible debentures and the
related warrants, the Company is requesting approval by its
Shareholders for the issuance of the Conversion Stock to the
Investors. We will not issue the Conversion Stock to the
Investors in excess of the New York Stock Exchange thresholds
until the Shareholder approval contemplated by this proposal is
obtained.

Shareholders under the New York Stock Exchange rules. If we were
not to obtain such approval, we may be required to redeem, at a
redemption price of 105%, all or a portion of the convertible
debentures. As part of the refinancing, holders of approximately
57% of our currently outstanding common stock have agreed to
vote their shares of our common stock in favor of this proposal.

the terms of the convertible debentures limit our ability to
issue shares of our common stock in payment of interest as
described below and we do not elect to pay interest in cash,

	Group, as defined in the stockholders&#146; agreement, owns
	5,901,824 shares, or 15.5% of our outstanding common stock. As
	the parties to the stockholders&#146; agreement have agreed to
	vote with respect to certain matters as set forth therein, all
	of them may be deemed to be a control group. As a result, each
	stockholder may be deemed to beneficially own all shares of
	common stock owned by all of the parties to the
	stockholders&#146; agreement. The number of shares shown as
	owned by the Investcorp Group does not include any shares which
