Highlight of Business Operations:

We enter into derivative contracts to manage our exposure to interest rate changes by achieving a desired proportion of fixed rate versus variable rate debt. In June, 2009, $60.0 million notional amount of interest rate swaps which effectively converted $60.0 million of our 7 5/8% senior notes due 2013 from a fixed rate to a variable rate were terminated by the counterparties. As of September 30, 2009, we are not counterparty to any derivative contracts.


We currently have outstanding $149.9 million in principal amount of Convertible Notes. We are subject to equity price risk related to the convertible feature of this debt. The Convertible Notes are convertible only under certain conditions at the option of the holder. Upon conversion, the principal portion of the Convertible Notes will be paid in cash and any excess of the “conversion value” over the principal portion will be paid either in cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of shares of our common stock and cash at our option. Upon normal conversions, for every $1.00 the market price of our common stock exceeds $31.25 per share, we will be required, at our option, either to pay an additional $4.8 million or to issue shares of our common stock with a then market price equivalent to $4.8 million, or some combination thereof with a combined value of $4.8 million, to settle the conversion feature. If a specified fundamental change event occurs, the conversion price of our Convertible Notes may increase depending on our common stock price at that time. However, the number of shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of a note may not exceed 41.5973 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes. As of October 15, 2007, the $150.0 million aggregate principal of the Convertible Notes became convertible at the option of the holders and remains convertible through January 15, 2010 as provided in the indenture covering the Convertible Notes. These Convertible Notes were classified as a current liability as of September 30, 2009.


The high and low closing sale prices per share for our common stock based on the closing price as reported on the New York Stock Exchange during the third quarter of 2009 were $56.13 and $42.61.
