SELLING SHAREHOLDERS
The information appearing in the table below supplements and supersedes the information with respect to such selling shareholders in the table appearing under the heading “Selling Shareholders” in the prospectus dated May 10, 2007, as previously supplemented. The information is based solely on information provided to us by or on behalf of the selling shareholders on or prior to May 27, 2008 in Selling Security Holder Notices and Questionnaires. The number of common shares, shown in the table below, issuable upon the exchange or redemption of the notes, assumes exchange of the full amount of notes held by each selling shareholder at the current exchange rate of 45.4682 shares of our common shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes and a cash payment in lieu of any fractional share, even though we are required to pay the first $1,000 of exchange value in cash. The exchange rate is subject to further adjustment in certain events. The selling shareholders may offer all, some or none of the common shares which we may issue upon the exchange or redemption of the notes. Because the selling shareholders may offer all or some portion of such common shares, we cannot estimate the number of common shares that will be held by the selling shareholders upon termination of any of these sales. In addition, the selling shareholders identified below may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their notes or common shares since the date on which they provided the information regarding their notes in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
