        The Prospectus, dated August 7, 2007, as supplemented by the Supplement to Prospectus dated September 7, 2007, the Second Supplement to Prospectus dated November 13, 2007, the Third Supplement to Prospectus dated December 14, 2007, and the Fourth Supplement to Prospectus dated February 13, 2008 is hereby further supplemented as follows to restate, in its entirety, the “Selling Securityholders” section on pages 55-58 of the Prospectus.

 

The date of this Fifth Prospectus Supplement is April 10, 2008.

 

S-1


 

SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS

 

We originally issued the notes to the initial purchasers in a private placement in June 2007. The notes were immediately resold by the initial purchasers in transactions exempt from registration under Rule 144A under the Securities Act. Selling securityholders, which term includes their transferees, pledgees, donees or their successors, may from time to time offer and sell the notes and the common stock into which the notes are convertible pursuant to this prospectus or any applicable prospectus supplement.

 

The following table sets forth certain information concerning the principal amount of notes beneficially owned and the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of those notes that may be offered from time to time under this prospectus by the selling securityholders named in the table. We prepared this table based on the information supplied to us by the selling securityholders named in the table and we have not sought to verify such information. This table only reflects information regarding selling securityholders who have provided us with such information. We expect that we will update this table as we receive more information from holders of the notes who have not yet provided us with their information. We will supplement or amend this prospectus to include additional selling securityholders upon request and upon provision of all required information to us. Information concerning the selling securityholders may change from time to time and any changed information will be set forth in supplements to this prospectus if and when necessary.

 

The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes shown in the table below assumes conversion of the full amount of notes held by each selling securityholder at an initial conversion rate of 16.3752 shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes. This conversion price is subject to adjustment in certain events. Accordingly, the number of conversion shares may increase or decrease from time to time. The percentages of common stock beneficially owned and being offered are based on the number of shares of our common stock that were outstanding as of July 16, 2007. Because the selling securityholders may offer all or some portion of the notes or the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes pursuant to this prospectus, we have assumed for purposes of the table below that the selling securityholders will sell all of the notes and all of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus pursuant to this prospectus. In addition, the selling securityholders identified below may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their notes in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act since the date on which they provided the information to us regarding their holdings. As of July 16, 2007, we had $575,000,000 in principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2014 and 132,131,736 shares of common stock outstanding.

 

S-2


 

Based upon information provided by the selling securityholders, none of the selling securityholders nor any of their affiliates, officers, directors or principal equity holders has held any position or office or has had any material relationship with us within the past three years.

 

Except where disclosure is included in the table below regarding natural persons exercising voting and dispositive power over the notes held by selling securityholders, the selling securityholders have represented to us that they are a publicly-held entity, or a subsidiary thereof, or an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, or a subsidiary thereof.

 

In addition, except as indicated in the table below, the selling securityholders have represented to us that they are not, nor are they affiliated with, a registered broker-dealer.
