Common stock

We filed an amended registration statement on S-1 today with the SEC which revised or clarified certain disclosures in the preliminary prospectus dated January 16, 2007. In particular please note that:

 

  •   we had included pro forma earnings per share data on page 7 of the preliminary prospectus in footnote 4 (and in various other places) giving effect to various transactions; this amendment reflects a different calculation giving effect to a different set of calculations;

 

  •   we have modified our calculation of “net tangible book value”, for purposes of calculating “Dilution” on page 27, resulting in slightly higher dilution than that set forth in the preliminary prospectus; and

 

  •   we have clarified in a footnote to the table at the bottom of page 27 that the consideration paid by the existing shareholders in that table has not been reduced to reflect dividends paid to our shareholders.
