this offering and the redemption. The Company expects to complete the
redemption on December 5, 2011, subject to certain conditions, including
the consummation of the offering of the Senior Notes.
The new Senior Notes have not been and will not be registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the securities laws of any state
and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration
or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements under the
Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the
solicitation of an offer to buy the Senior Notes, nor shall there be any
sale of the Senior Notes in any jurisdiction in which such offer,
solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or
qualification under the securities laws of such jurisdiction. This press
release shall not constitute a notice of redemption, an offer to
purchase, a solicitation of an offer to purchase or a solicitation of
consent with respect to any securities, including the Company's 9.25%
