The information appearing under the section entitled “Selling Securityholders” on pages S-45 through S-47 of the prospectus supplement dated June 14, 2006 is amended and restated in its entirety by the information below.

SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS

We originally issued the notes to Goldman Sachs & Co. in a private placement on December 19, 2005 and in connection with the closing of the related over-allotment option to purchase additional notes on December 30, 2005. The notes were immediately resold by the initial purchaser to persons reasonably believed by the initial purchaser 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 securityholders, including their transferees, pledgees or donees or their successors, may from time to time offer and sell the notes and our common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes pursuant to this prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus. 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 concerning the principal amount of notes beneficially owned by each selling securityholder and the number of shares of common stock that may be offered from time to time by each selling securityholder under this prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus. The information is based on information provided to us by or on behalf of the selling securityholders on or prior to November 7, 2007.

Because the selling securityholders may offer all, some or none of the notes or common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes, we have assumed for purposes of the table below that the named selling securityholders will sell all of the notes or common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes. In addition, the selling securityholders 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. Unless otherwise indicated below, to our knowledge no selling securityholder named in the table below beneficially owns one percent or more of our common stock, assuming conversion of such selling securityholder’s notes.

To our knowledge, except as described below, the selling securityholders have sole voting and investment power with respect to all of the securities shown as beneficially owned by them.

(1) Represents the maximum number of shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of all
of the holder’s notes, based on the current conversion rate of 35.3154 shares of our common
stock per $1,000 principal amount at maturity of the notes. This conversion rate is subject
to adjustment, however, as described under “Description of Notes—Conversion Rate
Adjustments.” As a result, the maximum number of shares of our common stock issuable upon
conversion of the notes may increase or decrease in the future.
(2) Calculated based on 134,173,949 shares of our
common stock outstanding as of November 7, 2007. In calculating this amount for each holder, we treated as outstanding the number of
shares of our 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) The selling securityholder has informed us that it is, or is an affiliate of, a registered
broker-dealer. Each such selling securityholder has represented to us that it acquired its
securities in the ordinary course of business and, at the time of the acquisition of the
securities, had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to
distribute the securities. To the extent that we become aware that any such selling
securityholder did not acquire its securities in the ordinary course of business or did have
such an agreement or understanding, we will file a supplement to this prospectus supplement to
designate such selling securityholder as an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities
Act of 1933.
(4) T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. serves as investment adviser with power to direct investments
and/or sole power to vote the shares owned by this selling securityholder. For purposes of
the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. may be deemed
to be the beneficial owner of all of the notes and shares of common stock issuable upon
conversion of the notes held by the selling securityholder; however, T. Rowe Price Associates,
Inc. expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of such securities. T. Rowe Price Associates,
Inc. is the wholly owned subsidiary of T. Rowe Price Group, Inc., which is a publicly traded
financial services holding company.

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.
