The press release included as Exhibit 99.1 to that Form 8-K differed from the press release actually issued by the Company, as the Exhibit contained incorrect information in the financial summary tables on the third page with respect to the line item for the Company's EBITDA for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003. EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2003 was $59.2 million (reported) and $61.2 million (excluding special items), and EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $100.1 million (reported) and $199.5 million (excluding special items). A discussion of the use of EBITDA and non-GAAP financial measures is included in the press release. Accordingly, the Company attaches the correct copy of its press release, as actually issued by Company, as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K/A. Item 7.
