Such information has been obtained from the selling securityholders. This prospectus supplement should be read in conjunction with the Prospectus. The information appearing in the table below, as of the date hereof, further supplements and amends the information in the table appearing under the heading "Selling Securityholders" in the Prospectus: PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF NOTES BENEFICIALLY COMMON STOCK OWNED OWNED AND OFFERED PERCENTAGE OF PRIOR TO THE COMMON STOCK HEREBY NOTES OUTSTANDING OFFERING OFFERED HEREBY NAME (1) (2) (3) (4) ---- ------------------- ----------------- ------------------ -------------- Forbank & Co. $500,000 * 4,629.63 4,629.63 * Less than one percent. (1) We believe any excess of the total amount of registered sales by Selling Securityholders is the result of (i) sales by Selling Securityholders who previously registered their shares in unregistered offers and the subsequent registration by the purchaser thereof, or (ii) registration by Selling Securityholders who had acquired their shares in a previously registered transaction. The number of shares of common stock owned prior to the offering includes shares of common stock into which the Notes are convertible. The number of shares of common stock offered hereby is based on a conversion price of $108.00 per share of common stock 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 2 do not beneficially own any common stock other than common stock into which the Notes are convertible at a conversion price of $108.00 per share. 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 3 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 THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE. The date of this prospectus supplement is August 10, 2001. 2
