Pursuant to the Prospectus, we offered up to $11,283,000 of our 4.25660% Series D Convertible
Preferred Stock, or 11,283 shares based on a stated value of $1,000 per share, and warrants to
purchase up to 19,800,000 shares of our common stock. Delivery of the convertible preferred stock
and warrants was made on or about October 9, 2009. In addition, pursuant to the Prospectus,
79,800,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible preferred stock
and exercise of the warrants were registered to permit their resale to the public by the purchasers
of our convertible preferred stock and warrants. We are not selling the shares of common stock
issuable upon conversion of the convertible preferred stock or exercise of the warrants, and
therefore will not receive any proceeds from such sales, other than the exercise price, if any, to
be received upon exercise of the warrants.
