---------------

(1) Information about other selling securityholders may be provided in
    prospectus supplements or post-effective amendments.

(2) In each case, none of these securities were held prior to this offering.

(3) Based on the principal amount of convertible subordinated debentures
    originally issuable in exchange for the preferred stock, calculated by
    reference to the initial liquidation preference of the preferred stock of
    $1,000.00 per share. The principal amount is subject to increase as a result
    of increases in the liquidation preference of the preferred stock to reflect
    the accretion of unpaid dividends. See "Description of Preferred
    Stock -- Exchange Right" in the accompanying prospectus.

(4) Based on the shares of common stock originally issuable upon exercise of the
    conversion privilege attached to the preferred stock or the convertible
    subordinated debentures with fractions rounded up to the nearest whole
    share. The number of shares of common stock so issuable is subject to
    increase as a result of antidilution adjustments and, in the case of
    conversion of the preferred stock, increases in the liquidation preference
    of the preferred stock to reflect the accretion of unpaid dividends. No
    fractional shares of common stock will be issued upon conversion of the
    preferred stock. Instead of issuing fractional shares, we will deliver scrip
    that will entitle the holder to receive a full share upon surrender of such
    scrip aggregating a full share. See "Description of Preferred
    Stock -- Conversion


    Rights" and Description of the Convertible Subordinated
    Debentures -- Conversion," in the accompanying prospectus.

(5) The number of securities listed in this prospectus supplement against the
    name of this selling securityholder is in addition to the number of
    securities listed against the name of this selling securityholder in the
    accompanying prospectus.

     Unless otherwise disclosed in the footnotes to the table above, no selling
securityholder has, or within the past three years has had, any position, office
or other material relationship with us or any or our predecessors or affiliates.

     Our common stock trades on The New York Stock Exchange under the symbol
"LU". On February 6, 2002, the closing sale price of our common stock was $5.76
