Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

           The table under the caption “Selling Securityholders” beginning on page 51 of the prospectus is hereby supplemented and amended by updating information as to a certain selling securityholder identified in the table below. We prepared this table based on information supplied to us by the selling securityholder named in the table below on or prior to February 22, 2005. Information about the selling securityholder may change over time. If required, any changed or new information given to us will be set forth in supplements to the prospectus or amendments to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, if and when necessary.

          We have assumed for purposes of the table below that the selling securityholder will sell all of the notes and all of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the prospectus, and that any other shares of our common stock beneficially owned by the selling securityholder will continue to be beneficially owned.

          Except as set forth below, the selling securityholder has not, nor within the past three years has had, any position, office or other material relationship with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates.

+ The selling securityholder is an affiliate of a registered broker-dealer.

(1) Assumes conversion of all of the holder’s notes at a conversion rate of 63.8790 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount at maturity of the notes. This conversion rate is subject to adjustment as described under ‘‘Description of Notes—Conversion Rights’’ in the prospectus dated April 29, 2004. As a result, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes may increase or decrease in the future. Excludes shares of common stock that may be issued by us upon the repurchase of the notes as described under ‘‘Description of Notes— Repurchase of the Notes by Us at the Option of Holders Upon a Fundamental Change’’ in the prospectus and fractional shares. Holders will receive a cash adjustment for any fractional share amount resulting from conversion of the notes, as described under ‘‘Description of Notes—Conversion Rights’’ in the prospectus.

(2) The number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by each holder named above is less than 1% of our outstanding common stock, calculated based on 273,356,132 shares of common stock outstanding as of April 3, 2004. In calculating this amount for each holder, we treated as outstanding the number of shares of 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) For the purposes of computing the number and percentage of notes and shares to be held by the selling shareholders after the conclusion of the offering, we have assumed for purposes of the table above that the selling securityholder named above will sell all of the notes and all of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes offered by this prospectus supplement and the prospectus, and that any other shares of our common stock beneficially owned by the selling securityholder will continue to be beneficially owned.

(4) This selling securityholder was previously listed as holding $33,500,000 of the notes. The current listing indicating a holding of $17,000,000 represents an additional $17,000,000 of notes to be registered, acquired subsequent to the original $33,500,000 of notes included in the original prospectus. This information supercedes all prior information concerning Credit Suisse First Boston Europe Ltd.

The date of this prospectus supplement is February 22, 2005.
